Chapter 37: Cards
Flower hurried back with his wife.
After listening to Jiayi's concept of urban planning, Flower realized that building a city was much more troublesome than he imagined, and that there was much more preparation work to be done.
He hurried back to discuss with his father, now the construction of the city is just an idea, it has not been officially implemented, and everything still has room for change.
The snow outside was getting heavier and heavier, and the ruts left by Flower were quickly filled with fresh snow, slowly turning into a shallow dent.
Heavy snow blocked the road, and Kaichi just took the time to deal with his own affairs, designing the element pool, and helping Flower make the Heroic Wind Ring, and by the way, the cards he designed, and the background information was set up and never worked on again.
Jiayi has set the skill information of the card, and the background has also been changed according to the background of the two empires that divided the two empires, and now it is necessary to make the card, although there are many processes in this step, but in fact, it is simpler for Jiayi, and it is already considered physical work.
If it's just a simple way to make cards, then it's very simple, Jiayi's sketching skills are not weak, and it's very easy to draw characters on it, since Jiayi wants to do it, of course he doesn't want to do such a simple thing.
Otherwise, it's not a waste of the magic that he's been learning for so many years.
Kaichi took out a stack of paper with a little green glow, this is the "elf paper" produced by the academy's paper mill, in fact, it is paper made from elf rice stalks, which can retain a faint magic power, but it is far worse than magic parchment, so it is impossible to make scrolls.
Even crafting magic apprentice-level scrolls is difficult, although scrolls at this level don't have much crafting value, and are more used by apprentices to farm proficiency.
However, this paper retains mana, so it is suitable as a practice paper for magic scrolls.
Generally speaking, when a person is new to learning how to make a scroll, he needs to practice drawing the scroll on paper, and then draw on magic parchment after he has practiced it. While drawing the scrolls, it is necessary to continuously ensure that the output of mana is uniform, and at the same time, the movements of the hands must not be chaotic, and the structure and layout of the circle need to be accurate.
It takes a long time to practice, either to develop the magic output into an instinct, or to practice the scroll pattern as an instinct, or to use it for two purposes.
However, just practicing on paper is not enough to exercise the magic output, and many times, when a person gets his hands on a new scroll for the first time, even if he is familiar with the pattern on the paper, he cannot guarantee a stable magic output, and he will inevitably draw the parchment.
Waste parchment can be washed off with solvent, but it will inevitably affect the performance of the second production, and the solvent is not cheap, but compared to magic parchment, the use of solvent is a little more saving.
But these are not as good as using this kind of "elf paper" produced by the academy paper mill, the price of elf paper is much cheaper than magic parchment, and it can retain magic power, so you can also practice drawing scrolls, although drawing scrolls has no practical effect, but you can judge whether the scroll is successful or not.
And you can throw it away directly if the painting is scrapped, which is also more convenient.
Now the students of the academy are using this kind of paper to practice the drawing of magic scrolls, and the overall level of scroll drawing of the low-level mages of the academy has improved a lot in the past few years.
It's just that this kind of paper has a lot of demand for elven straw, and the output is not rich, most of it is supplied to the inside of the academy, and few are sold outside.
Kaichi took out this paper not to practice drawing scrolls, but to use this paper to make cards.
He first began to design the required magic array, which was just a simple development circle, which Kaichi had already used when he first started making sonar, and the 3D display of sonar on the sonar was used to determine whether an obstacle or a hole was detected.
Now it's time to use this 3D development circle to show the 36D image of the general.
After designing the magic circle, he began to use "elf paper" to make cards, first using a special glue to glue multiple pieces of elf paper together to make a slightly thicker piece, and then using magic solvent to soak it, soak it, and then compress it to dry.
In this way, the paper becomes a piece of cardboard, which is not easily damaged, and the carrying capacity of magic becomes more abundant, although it still does not meet the standard of making the most basic magic scrolls.
After the cardboard production was completed, Jia Yi used a rune pen on the surface to outline the image of the general, this time he couldn't copy the Three Kingdoms Killing, and the classic lupine towel image was gone.
The characters and costumes were outlined in accordance with the style of this era, and they were drawn on the cards, in order to make everyone look different, Jiayi deliberately went to the street to observe the characters, and at this time the heavy snow still did not stop, so that Jiayi's behavior was greatly disturbed, there were too few people on the street, and most of them wore hats and rolled up their whole person.
There was no way, he could only retouch the Cargill Donna at home and draw them on cardboard.
If someone compares carefully, they will find that in addition to Donna, they can also see the shadows of Jiayi's mother Erica, father Gary, and Flower and Sainsbury, but these images of Jiayi have been modified and distorted to a certain extent, although they look a little similar, but they are not very similar.
After the design of the military commander pattern on the surface was completed, Jia began to depict the magic array on the reverse side, and the figure on the front was only modeled, and if it was to be displayed correctly, it also needed to be matched by the magic array behind it.
After the magic array on the reverse side was completed, Jia Yi took out another piece of paper, gently covered the paper on the back of the card with glue, and then carved a unified shielding rune on it, one as a decoration, and the other is to avoid someone directly using spells to cheat, relying on mental power to look at people's cards.
Although here, only Jiayi himself has this ability.
And it can also make it more difficult for people to crack, if you want to see the circle inside the card, you need to uncover the paper behind the card, but this will damage the circle that is adhered to by the paper, and the circle is damaged, although it is not impossible to crack, but not everyone can crack it.
The first to make is the military general card, he didn't do much, only made the standard version of 27 cards, fortunately his memory is outstanding, otherwise he really doesn't know who to choose with so many military cards, the Three Kingdoms have killed a lot of versions, the standard version, military battles, a general to become famous, and so on. And the standard version was originally not 27, but 25, and later added two groups of generals, Yuan Shu and Hua Xiong, which became 27, and it is said that there are 28 more.
The generals are done, and the rest is 108 basic cards, what kills, weapons and horses, these 108 cards are exactly the number of cards in two decks of poker, and you can also play two pokers if you want.
Maybe it's because when Three Kingdoms was first launched, people were afraid that people wouldn't accept it, so it could be played as a poker.
Although there are more basic cards, they take a little less time and are easier to make because the effects are not as cool as the Commander cards.
As for the remaining cards of the military battle, forget it.,Later, if this card is popular, you can come out of the expansion pack.,If it can't be popular.,Forget it.,There's not much time to waste.。
What are the remaining identity cards, physical strength cards are very simple things, although Jia Yi carved the rune array on the card, theoretically you can remove the physical strength card, so that the rune array on the general can achieve the effect of increasing or decreasing physical strength, but the magic array on the card can not be used by ordinary people, because it takes the use of magic to stimulate the magic effect on the card.
The area of the card is too small, and the magic power that resides on the card is limited, and it cannot be used to store mana so that ordinary people can also stimulate the effect of the card, if you want to make ordinary people can also activate the effect of the card, then you need to use special accessories.
Although Jiayi already has the corresponding idea, it has not yet been made, and for the time being, ordinary people still use physical strength cards instead.
