Chapter 4: The First Card Is a Purple Card!?
Li Ming glanced at the sea of spirit under his feet, and the sketch just now also consumed a certain amount of his spiritual power.
But the next third step is the most important one.
Once you start filling in the story, the sea of spirits will gradually show a tendency to be unstable.
He must finish the story before the sea of spirits runs dry, or else all his work will be wasted.
With the margin of his current spiritual sea, it will support another five minutes or so at most.
But, enough is enough!
Li Ming began to mobilize his spiritual power and began to fill in the settings for Dagon little by little......
[Dagon is an old ruler who lives under the sea, resembling a giant fish-man in appearance, and his followers call him the Father God, and the Mother God Hydra are both followers of Cthulhu.] 】
[In addition, some people believe that it is an elder of deep divers, and some people believe that it is just a relatively powerful deep diver, and the truth is unknown.] 】
[It has appeared in many rumors of human mythology, such as the Cyclops Polyphemus in Greek mythology, which is considered to be a rumored image of Dagon. 】
[It seems to be a monster that only appears in nightmares, it brought civilization to humans in the Near East 6,000 years ago, in ancient Syrian mythology it is the god of fertility in charge of agriculture, and even the royal power of the local ruler needs to be given by Dagon, but that is just a misinterpretation of Dagon's intentions, it does not care about the life or death of human beings. 】
[There was a merchant ship confronting Dagon on an island in the Pacific Ocean—it floated on the waves, sinking the merchant ship into the dark seabed with its foul-smelling claws, and the poor human beings, who had long been exhausted, were on the verge of madness, and the last sight they saw was the huge slimy body pounding against the gate and the hysterical cries of their companions. 】
[The ocean sings the hymn of Dagon, the father of the deep who believes in Cthulhu, attacks passing ships and prays to the great Cthulhu with the life of a lowly race.] 】
Very good!
The whole story is quite handy to write.
After filling in and perfecting Dagon's story and setting, Li Ming's spiritual sea has almost dried up.
The gods of the Cthulhu Mythos are characterized by their unknown origins, unknown language, and indescribable origins.
In the case of Dagon, some believe that it is the Old Dominator, some believe that it is just the best of the deep, and others believe that it is a creation of Cthulhu.
How, no one knows.
In the worldview of the Cthulhu Mythos, the blessings of these great gods to mankind are nothing more than a misunderstanding of mankind, and the destruction of humanity is nothing more than a casual act.
When Li Ming finished filling in Dagon's settings, a burst of purple fluorescence appeared on the blank card.
The sixteen cards gradually dissolved, turning into sixteen beams of light, converging towards the blank card.
And the blank card that has been engraved with the name of "Dagon" is even more full of dazzling purple light at this time!
This means that the card production is successful!!
"Good guy, I made a purple card directly for the first time I made a card, and the auditor was quite face-saving."
It may seem like only a few hundred words, but in fact, in the process of writing, the basic setting of the Cthulhu Mythos has been injected into the blank card through a drawing pen.
Due to cultural differences, there is no Cthulhu Mythos in this world, and naturally there is no relevant setting of the Cthulhu system, so it is definitely not clear if you really want to explain it without tens of thousands of words.
But when Li Ming finished writing Dagon's story, the reviewers seemed to understand the core concepts of the Cthulhu Mythos.
And the specific form of expression is directly reflected in the cards in Li Ming's hand-
【Dagon】
[Quality: Purple]
【Grade:★】
【Card Type: Summon】
[Category: Cthulhu Mythos, The Only Being]
【Dependents: Deep Divers】
[System Characteristics: Unspeakable Things: Any sane creature must face the unspeakable fear when confronting the creature of the system, which will affect its mental power to a certain extent. 】

[Creature Bonds: Cthulhu (ununlocked), Khirra (ununlocked), Hydra (ununlocked), Star Clan (ununlocked), Krasin (unlocked), Father of the Sharks (unlocked)]
[Arena Bonds: Alaye (Ununlocked), Innsmouth (Ununlocked)]
After reading Dagon's skill introduction, Li Ming's heart couldn't help but fluctuate.
It became !!
The creatures and venues mentioned in the biological bond and the site bond are all settings that Li Ming did not write in the story, but the "card examiner" has already understood the meaning through Li Ming's thoughts when he made the card.
The [Unspeakable] here can be regarded as a core setting in the Cthulhu Mythos worldview, which is reflected in many Cthulhu-related spin-off games.
And spiritual power is a general setting in this world, like what kind of divine power, soul power, fighting spirit, and mana value are all unified into spiritual power in this world, and the rational value often called SAN value is also classified into spiritual power.
It can be said that this passive fits quite well with this world!
MEET AND HAVE A SAN CHECK FIRST, HOW MANY CREATURES CAN WITHSTAND IT?
Li Ming closed his eyes, detached from the sea of spirits, and returned to the real world in his consciousness.
And when he opened his eyes again, he already had an extra card in his hand, and its name was "Dagon".
The old man on the side stared at Li Ming dumbfounded, his eyes full of shock!
"You...... Can you really succeed in making cards in this environment?? ”
"Oh yes, you've only been locked up for a few hours, and if I had found those material cards earlier, maybe I'd have succeeded in making them, and I'd have been able to make them cheaper, kid."
Li Ming: "......"
Or will you put gold on your face.
"By the way, what is the combat effectiveness of this card in your hand, with sixteen material cards, it won't pile up a tattered one, right?"
"How's the quality? Crack? White? Green? ”
When Li Ming heard this, he glanced at the name of Dagon's purple-plated card: "It's a purple card, an aquatic creature." ”
"Oh, Zika, I remember the first time I was also ......" The old man looked up at the ceiling of the water prison, and then suddenly realized something, and suddenly turned his head to look at Li Ming with wide eyes, "Wait, what color did you just say??" ”
"Purple." Li Ming repeated.
"Purple Card??? Are you kidding! Didn't you say you never made a card? ”
There are 10 levels of cards, namely Rift, White, Green, Blue, Purple, Orange, Gold, Red, Black, and Color.
He is also an official investigator, and he has seen many geniuses more or less, and in the past, there was a person who broke the card and the quality was blue, and he was already a world-class genius who caused a sensation in the country!
And that person has now become the face of Xingzhu City.
As a result, you told me that your broken card is purple, and you thought of it when you looked at a pile of messy materials in this kind of dungeon??
In the past, those geniuses of the Card Makers Association wanted to make a purple card, didn't it take several years to accumulate and collect materials before they had the opportunity to accumulate and produce a purple card?
This young man, how long did it take from seeing those dozens of material cards to successfully making cards?
This Nima is outrageous!!
No way, this kind of thing is absolutely impossible!!
However, this incident really happened in front of him at this moment, which made the old man feel a little nervous, so that he started a wave of associations......
Killed at the beginning, trapped in a dungeon, and encountered an old man......
Could it be that it's because I'm awesome, it's the kind of mysterious old man who is depressed before meeting the protagonist, but when he meets the protagonist, he can induce the protagonist's strong potential.
The main character is fire, and I am oil?
I'm actually pretty good, but I don't know?
The old man looked at Li Ming, and the flames in his eyes that had been extinguished suddenly burned again: "You say, could I be some mysterious old man or something?" You have to credit me for this purple card? ”
"You're humorous."
Now that the small talk is over, the next thing to consider is the next action.
I don't know what the strength of the evil god that the cultist believes in is for the time being, but ......
At this time, a huge fish monster slowly approached Li Ming's side, probably sensing the spiritual power emitted when the card was made just now.
Those bulging eyes stared at Li Ming.
The next moment, the pair of fish eyes were suddenly dyed crimson!
Seeing this scene, the old man's face changed drastically in an instant!
"This fish is on the alert!"
