Chapter 9: "Minions" Card
Quinine Carrick was smirking at his perfect explanation, and was stunned for a moment when he heard the question, then laughed dumbly.
"Your Ritual of Crossing Magic will never succeed."
Li Tong frowned and wanted to say, "There are no absolutes in everything."
"Maybe ......"
The bounty hunter shrugged.
"I know what you're trying to say, there's no possibility in this matter...... My employer has been researching magic for a long time, and he conducted meticulous research on magical rituals ten years ago and came to the conclusion that all magical rituals are hoaxes, just lies concocted by some scammers to confuse magical idiots who know nothing about magic but want to make a splash. ”
There was a pause, and his expression was playful.
"I think your book is a shoddy version printed by some crook on the street, and as for the missing pages in your diary, those guys deliberately tore them up and sold them after they were printed, so that they could explain to the idiots who had bought those books and failed in the end that the ritual failed because of the missing pages, not because of the problem with the crossing magic itself, to cover up the fact that the crossing magic itself was a hoax."
Although the magic ritual did bring him to this world, he couldn't explain it to the other party yet, and at this moment he could only default to being an idiot, Li Tong couldn't cry or laugh, which was quite embarrassing.
"I'll have to name your original fate card."
Quinine Carrick temporarily shifted his attention to the new Destiny card, gazing at the pattern on it.
"Servant, for the time being, call servant."
His fate card is called a minion, and he doesn't know the special abilities that this card represents.
Li Tong looked at the bounty hunter in front of him, and suddenly thought of something.
"Your original destiny card was a hunter?"
The judgment is of course based on the other party's bounty hunter status.
Quinine Carrick shook his head, took a card of the same texture from his bosom and placed it on the table and pushed it in front of the young man.
"What do you think?"
The card is a short man, holding a money bag in his left hand and a dagger in his right hand.
"Thieves?"
Quinin Carrick put the cards away without answering, a smile on his face.
This represents acquiescence, which Li Tong cannot understand.
"But you're a bounty hunter by profession...... There is no correlation between the two......"
Quinine Carrick interrupts.
"There is no connection between the secular class of the Awakened and the Destiny Card class, and in order to distinguish between the two, we usually refer to the secular class as the first class and the Destiny Card class as the second class."
It turns out that this is the case, so now his first profession is a teacher, and his second profession is a servant, but Li Tong is a little confused about the name of the card.
"Why do you want to add primitiveness in front of the fate card, can't you just call the fate card?"
The bounty hunter's expression returned to seriousness.
"Once you've got the original Destiny card, you'll move on to some of the inevitable events that are called inevitable events."
"Necessity?"
"That's right, it's inevitable."
Quinin Carrick's tone accentuated a little emphasis.
"The Wheel of Fortune is a random event, when the Wheel of Fortune spins, it can't be stopped, and the rotation will bring you some inevitable events, and when you can handle these events correctly, you will get a combination of cards."
The content is already complicated to the point of being a bit perverted, but fortunately, Li Tong's comprehension ability is good.
"This doesn't seem to have much to do with the word primitive in front of the fate card, and the fate card can also be distinguished from the combination card."
The bounty hunter smiled contemptuously.
"Combo cards will tell you some recipes, as long as you combine different original destiny cards according to the recipe, you will get an upgraded version of the destiny card, and you will be able to unlock new abilities, called the original destiny card is to distinguish it from the upgraded destiny card."
Rao is Li Tong's comprehension ability is good, and it is a little difficult to get to this point, so he pondered for a moment and looked at the previous information, and roughly understood the meaning.
"First go through a random event to awaken and get the original destiny card, and then go through the inevitable event, you will get a combination card, and then according to the combination card hint to combine different original destiny cards will upgrade your original destiny card and gain new abilities."
(For example, if a combo card gives a minion card and an Artisan card, then combine the two cards to gain new abilities and get a new upgraded version of the Destiny card.) )
According to the number of original cards found so far, there are eleven in total, and regardless of the order, the combination types add up to a total of 11 times 10 times 9...... All the way up to multiplying by 1...... After mental arithmetic, there will be 39916800 combination patterns.
"Will there be close to 40 million combination modes and 40 million ways to upgrade?"
His eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets and he let out an exclamation of disbelief.
Quinin Carrick shook his head.
"Now there are 11 kinds of original cards, I don't know if you are right, but the combination type is definitely astronomical, but in countless combinations, only a few combinations will allow you to continue to awaken and upgrade to gain new abilities, and most of the combinations will make you crazy, fall into a curse, and become a monster, so if you want to awaken and upgrade safely, you must first find a combination card, and if you don't get a combination card, you will try different combinations rashly, and the result will be miserable."
"It seems that in order to continue to level up the cards, you must first go through the inevitable events, and get the combination cards, which is the only safe way." But I still want to be smart.
"So if I don't want to level up, isn't there any danger?"
Once again, the bounty hunter looked at an idiot.
"Once the wheel of fate is triggered by a fateful event, it can't stop, the inevitable event will inevitably appear at a certain moment, and if you can't solve the inevitable event within a year, you will fall into a curse, so you don't have a choice, the moment you get the original destiny card, whether you want to or not, you must be pushed forward by fate and keep leveling up."
", this means that I must be led by the so-called wheel of fate and fate in the future, this feeling is like eating a bite of a fly, which makes people very unhappy, Li Tong smiled helplessly, but the matter has come to this, I can only accept the truth temporarily before finding a way to go back, and now I must learn as much as possible.
"So how do you know for sure what is the inevitable event that will lead to getting a combination card?"
"It has to do with your dreams, which will give some hints, and as the inevitable events are resolved, the dreams will give more and more hints."
Quinine Carrick looked tired, yawned, and patiently replied.
The voice in the dream last night, and the little girl, twelve months, is this the inevitable event that he will encounter next, Li Tong recalled the strange dream, and noticed the state of the bounty hunter.
"The last question, after going through the inevitable event, I got a combination card, according to the previous statement, in addition to my own original card, I also need other kinds of original cards to upgrade, so where do I get other kinds of original cards?"
