"I think I forgot to ask what a mortal card is?"

On the way to the treasury of the headquarters, Chen Qi muttered to himself as if he were aware of it.

It's really because the previous communication with Zhong Xingchen was too shocking and the information content was too much.

By the time he remembered it again, the best time to communicate had passed.

He pretended to mumble to himself at this time, but Lin Biyun, who was sitting in the co-pilot, could hear it clearly.

"What mortal card?"

"Why haven't I heard of that?"

Lin Biyun suspected that the 7 of hearts was deliberately said to herself, but she really hadn't heard of this concept before.

"Don't you know?"

Chen Qi was quite puzzled in his heart, he had tested Kolos before, and as a betrayer, he didn't know the card of death at all.

Unexpectedly, Lin Biyun, as a person of order, didn't even know.

So where did Jomo Akris know about it?

If it weren't for this guy's death, Chen Qi would really think that he was fooled.

"What are the rules of the game in the game of kings?"

Chen Qi, who did not give up, changed his way of asking.

Strictly speaking, most of Chen Qi's knowledge of the King's Game comes from Joomo Chris's notes.

He felt the need to reconfirm the update.

That guy's level is too low for him now.

······

"The rules of the game?"

"As far as I know, there is only one real rule of the game, and that is the five-year Judgment Day, which no player can resist."

Lin Biyun replied very seriously and affirmatively, but this was very different from Chen Qi's previous cognition.

"There's only one rule in the game?"

"And what about the devouring fusion of cards?"

"What about the promotion and development of skills?"

If what Lin Biyun said was true, Chen Qi suddenly realized that he might have been misled by the diary.

"All I know is that there is only one rule in the original [Game of Kings], and this rule is most likely from His Majesty the King."

"But after all, the game needs the participation of the player, and the game itself has no game rules, but the player can create."

"A lot of the so-called rules of the game are conventions for players."

"If you're good enough to do what you say and get other players to follow it, you've created a rule of the game."

"Do you know? Captain Zhong Xingchen will die in the next game. ”

Lin Biyun's explanation made Chen Qi thoughtful, and then he thought of his own situation.

Could the so-called mortal cards be the rules of the game created by a powerful player himself?

Jomoa Criss broke his rules and was killed.

And the creation of this rule must be related to card fusion.

······

"What are the default rules in the game right now?"

"Why do you know that Zhong Xingchen will die in the next game?"

Chen Qi felt that he had really come to the right place for this trip to the headquarters.

If you don't go deep into the player base, how can you really participate in the game and really understand the game of kings.

"If the four rounds of the game still fail to make the apostle, the fifth round of the game will die."

"This rule of the game, which has been tacitly accepted by His Majesty the King and the top apostles, is the most powerful unspoken rule in the game."

"I was wondering why I didn't meet players who went through 5 rounds of play, and that's the answer."

Lin Biyun's tone was a little low, everything in the game was not what she thought before.

Zhong Xingchen took good care of her, but she didn't expect to die in the next round of the game.

The captain must be desperate right now!

Unless there is a miracle that makes him an apostle in this round.

But this is almost impossible, and Zhong Xingchen himself gave up.

"Does the four-wheel game have to be an apostle?"

"So will the Prime Minister's death have anything to do with this unspoken rule?"

Although Chen Qi does not know the deep inside story of Krozet Jik's death.

But since this unspoken rule has been tacitly accepted by the king and the top players, it is impossible for him to be exempt from it even if he is a non-combat player.

No one is willing to die, and so must Crozer Gick.

He must have done something to cause the king's displeasure.

This unspoken rule has nothing to do with Chen Qi now, after all, he has just joined the game.

······

"Some of the other rules in the game, because they don't have the endorsement of the king and all the apostles, basically the players go their own way."

"For example, when it comes to card fusion, it's the most confusing situation."

"The traitors have gone mad in order to merge the apostolic armies."

"Some people believe that a specific combination of numbers can greatly increase the probability of fusing the Apostolic Armament."

"Since the cards are no different from ordinary people's playing cards, there is no shortage of players who are crazy and put the various rules of poker into the game and try it."

"It's okay if it doesn't work out, but if the shit luck succeeds, the latecomers will be convinced, so a new card fusion rule appears."

"There are three rules for card fusion that are widely circulated right now."

"The first is to firmly believe in the successful experience of predecessors."

"Apostles also die, and players who get the core cards of the past Apostles will mostly go back to the old ways."

"They think it's the most successful."

"Second, 4 cards in a row of the same suit, or 4 cards in a row of different suits."

"For example, 2345 in spades, or 2 in hearts, 3 in spades, 4 of diamonds, 5 of clubs."

"The third type, the same number card of different suits. For example, 7 of hearts, 7 of spades, 7 of diamonds, 7 of clubs. ”

"These three paths are the most respected by powerful players because they have been successfully fused by players before."

"Especially the veteran players who are stuck in round 4, they will desperately want to seize every chance of survival."

"The cards you are talking about are most likely tricks made by some veteran players."

In Lin Biyun's narration, the player's card fusion can only be carried out three times.

Four cards work together to create an Apostolic Armament.

But that's not the culmination of a player's promotion.

After completing the Apostolic Armament, the player will have to spend a Judgment Day.

If they survive Judgment Day, players will be able to re-evolve the Apostolic Armament with the help of the shuffle mechanic before the start of a new round of the game.

Originally, the Apostle Armament was made up of 4 cards, but with the help of the game mechanic of shuffling, players were able to transfer the abilities of the Apostle Armament to their core cards.

In this way, players can truly control the Apostle Armament and become the top player.

So at the beginning of each new game, the number of cards is always 54.

······

"It turns out that the so-called mortal cards are just some players who want to play monopoly."

"For example, an old player who firmly believes in the third rule of fusion, so he hunts other players with the number 7 in 4 consecutive games. But he never achieved a perfect fusion and was unable to construct an apostolic armament. ”

"In this way, the card with the number 7 is naturally regarded as a mortal card in the eyes of players who know the inside story."

"Because new players who have joined the game can't beat the old fritters who have gone through several rounds of games."

"At the end of the day, it's just a bunch of old rubbish bullying newcomers!"

Chen Qi, who wanted to understand everything, suddenly became clear in his heart, he was not afraid of any challenge, but he was afraid of the unknown.

Once you understand the cause, you will have a way to deal with it.

Since the other party has not started to do it, it means that it has not entered the [harvest period].

In this way, he has a chance to move his life.

According to Lin Biyun's division of player strength, the person behind the scenes can only be LV4.

Because the symbol of LV5 is the birth of the Apostolic Armament.

The pinnacle of the player's strength is LV6.

This is the strength level of the game of kings.

Chen Qi can now step into LV3 at any time, and the gap between him and the other party is far from reaching the level of despair.

Hmph, it is not yet known who killed the deer.

······

Lin Biyun didn't know that in just a few words, she cleared the confusion ahead for Chen Qi.

Under her leadership, Chen Qi finally reached the treasure house of the Orderly.

To Chen Qi's surprise, this place was extremely heavily guarded, and it was even a small military camp.

"According to the routine, shouldn't one of the old men of the guards be arranged to watch the gate?"

It's a pity that the reality is that there are only 12 people left in the order, and everyone is busy to death, running around.

Who would be bored to guard a pile of useless waste paper?

If someone takes the initiative to ask for help, it must be greedy for life and afraid of death, and retreat.

The reason why so many people are arranged to guard it is just in case to prevent this knowledge from spreading to the people.

Players want to get all kinds of knowledge inside, and there will always be a way to do it.

They're not stupid enough to rob here.

Lin Biyun obviously comes here often, and he just brushes his face to enter.

Chen Qi didn't have any nervousness to enter the military stronghold, and to put it mildly, it wouldn't take him two minutes to overturn this place.

Under the leadership of Lin Biyun, Chen Qi passed through several secret doors and finally saw the final [treasure house].

It's an ordinary underground vault, but it's been converted into a reading room.

Chen Qi even suspected that it had been used to store some heavy weapons in the past.

"See for yourself!"

"If you want to make a copy and take it with you, copy it yourself."

"I'm not interested in any of this, so I won't accompany you."

After saying this, Lin Biyun turned around and left.

In the empty reading room, only Chen Qi himself remained.

Chen Qi looked around and found that there were not many materials on the shelves, and they only added up to dozens of document bags.

Chen Qi opened a copy casually, but inside it was some introductions to the alchemy school.

"It's a pity, it's just some general stuff, and even most of it is just rumors."

"Better than nothing!"

This material is supposed to have been written by a player, presumably on a whim while reading here.

According to the description in the materials, the alchemy school is divided into two categories, namely the creation school and the life alchemy school.

The Creationists seek to refine all kinds of powerful and transcendent instruments, and they are good at shaping energy and reorganizing matter.

As for the Life Refining School, it has always been very mysterious, and rarely appears in the circles of the inner world.

It is rumored that they are good at human alchemy, believing that the human body itself has many deficiencies that should be made up for in order to achieve a perfect life.

But that's just the theory of their public declaration, and according to the grapevine, these guys have been working on how to create life behind their backs.

From ancient times to the present day, the faction itself has been shrouded in a thick mystery.

The information in Chen Qi's hand did not have specific knowledge of the Alchemy School.

But he wasn't out of nowhere, at least a few concepts were clarified.

For example, Lingyun, and Lingsu.
