"There's stuff like this all over there."

The people around looked at each other, all over the place? If this is really a card, it's all over the place? Could it be that this is a garbage dump for discarded cards? Chen Du shook his head, rejecting the ridiculous idea. He'd seen the places where discarded cards were recycled, and those places were indeed full of cards. But this is in the jungle, uninhabited, wild beast-infested jungle, how can there be a garbage collection station here? What's more, from the age shown by this half of the card fragment, there was no card recycle bin at that time. Ancient cards were nowhere near as developed as they are today, and cards were used only by a very small number of people.

This news is undoubtedly a sensation for Chen Du and others.

Chen Du immediately said, "You lead the way." ”

The warrior sighed excitedly, and led Chen Du and the others towards the place he had found. Even Alfonso heard the news and set off with everyone.

The group soon arrived at the place the warrior had spoken.

Chen Du stopped and looked around. The vegetation in this area is very different from the surroundings, there is not a single towering tree that can be seen along the road, and there are knee-high weeds as far as the eye can see. This somewhat made everyone cautious, in the jungle, where there are obvious features, it often means unusual danger.

Without Chen Dui's command, Sivid waved his hand slightly, and the warriors behind him immediately spread out to both sides, entering the knee-high grass, their expressions full of vigilance. Weah followed Chen Dui's side calmly, not leaving an inch. Bowen and Cheng Ying activated their energy shields, and they were also vigilant.

"It's all down here!" The warrior cleared the weeds on the ground, and Chen Du could clearly see that there were indeed many similar card fragments on the ground, which were mixed in the dirt, and they could not be found without removing the weeds.

Picking up one, this card is not as good as the one just now, but it is not corroded at the fracture. These cards have been violently vandalized! Chen Duan immediately came to this conclusion, and at the same time, Bowen took his gaze away from the card fragment in his hand, and a look of surprise and confusion appeared on his face. Cheng Ying was no exception, she never imagined that she would see so many card fragments in the jungle.

Judging by the age of these cards, they have undergone countless years of change. What would it look like here, in ancient times?

As far as the eye can see, there is no other conspicuous object except weeds and weeds. However, the area where weeds and trees grew was huge, much larger than the largest training grounds Chen Du had ever seen. And Chen Duan also found a special place, this area is very flat, and there are no ups and downs.

At this moment, someone suddenly shouted: "Here's something!" ”

Chen Dui woke up from his thoughts to see a warrior standing in the middle of the area, waving his arms and shouting. The enthusiasm of the crowd was immediately ignited, and they ran excitedly towards the warrior's place.

A small, slightly arched dirt bag, overgrown with weeds, followed the warrior's finger to reveal a metallic edge peeking out of the dirt. Metal, this is the unique luster of metal! The discovery was heartened and everyone began to remove the dirt and weeds from it. Soon, more and more metal parts were exposed.

When all the dirt and weeds were removed, the metal device was finally revealed to the public.

It is a metal device resembling a round table, with a diameter of three meters and a thick metal disc, which is held by an equally thick metal cylinder. The metal cylinder at the bottom has been submerged in the dirt, and no one knows how long the metal cylinder is that is half submerged in the dirt. The whole metal device has a dull metallic luster, which is not conspicuous, but exudes a hardness that can withstand the years.

Everyone was fascinated by this unique metal device. Everything here is so out of place with its surroundings, the unique terrain, the unique vegetation, the card fragments scattered here and there, and this well-made metal device.

"Very good level of production." Alfonso commented. Chen Du couldn't help but glance up at Alfonso, it was not easy to get Alfonso to praise him. Alfonso was modest and studious when it came to cards, but he could only be described as arrogant when it came to metalwork, often dismissive of other people's work, even Chen Dui was ridiculed by him. But his skill in metalsmithing was indeed proportional to his temper, and he was the most brilliant Chen Duan had ever met.

"This is an alloy, it should be a cold-phase trialloy." Alfonso said in a very professional tone, except that no one understood what he was talking about.

Chen Dui's gaze fell on the surface of the disk. The surface of the disc is engraved with many lines, which are criss-crossed, seemingly chaotic but seem to contain some kind of law. Here, if such a metal round table appears, then it must have a special purpose. And these engraved lines on this must also have their uses.

Chen Dui suddenly noticed the edge of the disc, where the lines made up a pattern that sounded familiar to him. No, it's not just familiar, it's a paper clip! This discovery made Chen Du excited all of a sudden!

Paperclipping, one of the basic structures of card patterning, will appear in almost 90% of card patterns. This was one of the structures that Chen Du was most familiar with, and it was one of the few things he could study when he was making one-star energy cards. In fact, his research in this area is indeed somewhat different from others.

This paper structure is a variant that he has seen on a one-star energy card that is different from the standard structure. He had collected twelve one-star energy cards with different structures, and he had done a lot of research on these paper structures in order to reduce the cost that would now seem negligible. And this kind of paper structure is a more efficient structure, which he has borrowed from. Although he came into contact with some much more sophisticated knowledge and more difficult structures, if the card structure he was most familiar with was this most basic, so basic that almost no one has studied the paper structure!

Soon, he found several paper structures in the line patterns carved on the disk, which led him to believe that the round table-shaped metal device should be something like a clamp. If there is only one paper structure, it may be a coincidence, but if there are several at the same time, then it must not be a coincidence.

But except for these paper-shaped structures, the other lines look very messy, and there is no trace of the graceful smoothness of the card pattern. In the eyes of ordinary people, the pattern on the card may be nothing more than a strange pattern of lines, but in the eyes of the card maker, they can tell at a glance whether the pattern in front of them is a card pattern or not, even if they may not recognize the pattern. The long-term production experience will make the card makers form a unique feeling, just like the sense of language and painting.

Chen Du has this feeling! In this era of rising card production costs, there are not many card makers who can have rich production experience, but Chen Du is undoubtedly one of them.

But the line patterns on the metal disc in front of him made Chen Du puzzled, because he couldn't tell whether these patterns were card patterns or not, and this was the first time he had encountered this situation!

The eyes of the others were focused on Chen Dui, and who was most likely to solve the mystery of this disc, it was undoubtedly Chen Dui.

Chen Dui, who looked focused, was unaware of everyone's gaze. The lines on the round table look messy and messy, and it's dazzling to look at. Chen Twilight is also not impatient, he is quite patient, and in the process of learning cards, this is one of the few strengths that he considers to be his own.

He used a stupid way to ask for his surname.

As we all know, all card patterns have a starting and closing pen. The so-called starting pen is the first point of the pen, and the pen is the last pen before completion. Skilled card makers are able to blend the start and end of the pen perfectly, especially the more advanced the card, and some of the card maker's exclusive cards are even more difficult to distinguish. This protects the cards they create from being copied.

If the line pattern on this disc is really a pattern, then there must be a pen and a pen.

Chen Du was not so arrogant as to think that he could find the beginning and the end of the pen from these chaotic line patterns. Maybe in the eyes of Cheng Ying and Bowen, the card maker with a contribution is already very powerful, but in Chen Du's own eyes, he is just a half-baked card maker with better luck.

Except, of course, on the one-star energy card, he has enough confidence in this regard.

Chen Du couldn't, but he believed that someone could—Alfonso.

Alfonso's card knowledge is miserable, but his metal skills are unmatched. These may be lines of composition, engraved on a metal plate. If it is a carving, the pen and the pen will definitely leave different traces, and they can't be found by themselves, but Alfonso should be able to find them. Chen Du was glad that the lines were engraved on a metal disc, and if they were drawn on a card, he really couldn't help it.

Chen Du explained his thoughts to Alfonso in detail.

Alfonso pondered for a moment, then nodded, "I'll try." ”

As everyone watched, Alfonso put his finger into the lines, slowly moving against the inner walls of the lines. The others, including Chen Duan, held their breath in unison, their eyes widened, and they didn't dare to come out.

In the air, there was only the rustle of the wind blowing the grass.
