Chapter 6: Sun Zhuge's Trick_1

Translator: Inschain Editor: Inschain

"D*mn, what's going on with Mr. Wang?"

In an instant, some students shouted. This sudden change had caused everyone to be unable to adapt for a moment.

"Look, there's so much water on the floor. When did it come out? It's as deep as the soles of my height-increasing shoes!"

When everyone heard this, they all cast disdainful gazes.

However, it was just as he had said. Shallow water had appeared on the floor of the Card Designing Lab.

"F**k! The amount of water is gradually increasing. Could it be that the Ancient Secret Area, which hasn't appeared in Xue City for decades, has revived this year?"

Upon hearing this, those who knew a lot about the Ancient Secret Area of Xue City immediately looked enlightened.

"Damn it, after hearing what you said, I feel that the current situation is indeed very similar to the revival process of the Ancient Secret Area [Dragon Palace Drill Ground]."

"Yes, my Grandpa said that at the beginning of the revival of the Dragon Palace Drill Ground, Card Designers with strong mental strength would be mysteriously transferred away. Otherwise, there wouldn't be more than 10,000 deaths every time this secret area was revived on a large scale!"

"That's right. The elders in my family also told me about the situation in the early stages of the recovery of the Dragon Palace. Mr. Wang just turned into a pool of water and was teleported inexplicably, just like what the elders said."

As everyone discussed, they could feel that the water level under their feet had risen again.

Because their pants were wet.

Those timid people, after hearing this, ran to the door of the Card Designing Lab. They pulled the door open in an attempt to leave the Card Designing Lab and seek shelter outside.

"Save your strength. The Card Designing Lab is made of special metal. It's a fool's dream for ordinary people to break it open by force," Someone looked at the door and tried to dissuade him.

"That's true. The Card Designing Lab can only be opened by the school's higher-ups. Since Mr. Wang has been sent away, we can only wait if we want to leave!" Someone nodded in agreement.

At this moment, Li Chongsi sneered and said, "Rather than wasting time, why not use the Energy Card in your hands and think about whether the Auxiliary Cards of your Card Building can help you!"

"Young Master Li, do you mean that your Card Building has cards that can allow you to survive in water?" Someone asked.

"Of course, I naturally have it. If you want to survive in the water, hand over the Restorative Psychiaic Pills and the Energy Card on your card designing table to me!" Li Chongsi picked up the remaining Energy Card on the table and spoke arrogantly.

Then, he turned around and glanced at some people.

"As for those one who like to talk about others behind their backs, I won't accept them. My ability is limited and it's difficult to protect them!"

Hearing his words, many boys frowned.

"Hehe, who cares? It's just a card that can survive underwater. It's not like only your Card Energy World has it!" Someone said disdainfully.

"..."

Amidst the noise, the people in the Card Designing Lab were divided into four groups in a short while.

The first was naturally led by Li Chongsi, the second was led by the two male students with 7 stories, the third was led by the two female students with 7 stories, and the fourth was led by Chu Jingyi.

At this time, Xu Wang was at a critical juncture in designing cards, so he didn't participate in the distribution of group members. However, because he was sitting behind Chu Jingyi, the others automatically recognized him as a member of Chu Jingyi's group.

Of course, his deskmate, Ye Yanci, also played a part in this.

"Fairy, these are the Energy Cards and Restorative Psychaic Pills that our group members handed over. What should we do next? Do you have any Low Tier cards that can survive underwater in your Card Building?"

Ye Yanci placed a stack of blank Energy Cards on Chu Jingyi's desk and asked. He admitted that he had brought his two classmates here because his desk mate, Xu Wang, was here, and it was not because of his fairy.

Furthermore, he was the one who had single-handedly created this group.

When he came over, Xu Wang had closed his eyes to design cards. Chu Jingyi was sitting in front of Xu Wang. The two of them were very calm when facing the revival of the Dragon Palace.

Helplessly, Ye Yanci obtained Chu Jingyi's consent and formed the fourth group in the class in her name.

"Ye Yanci, I've already told you once before that you can just call me by my name," Chu Jingyi said coldly.

Then, she looked up at the people around her and continued, "My Card Energy World doesn't have any Low Tier cards that can allow people to survive underwater."

When Ye Yanci heard this, he was stunned for a moment before he said, "Alright, I'll ask if their Card Building has such a card."

"Mr. Ye, there's no need to do anything unnecessary. I can make it!" A classmate who came with Ye Yanci said with a smile.

"Qian Er'er, can you make it? What card? Are you sure you can protect us?"

Ye Yanci asked three times in a row, clearly a little worried.

At the same time, he looked around. Their group was the last to be formed in the class. They did not have many people, only eight.

Qian Er'er looked at him and answered seriously,

"Yes, I can. Look at how honest my eyes are. It may probably be fine if I only protect the eight of us!"

"What do you mean by probably? I want you to answer with certainty. This is a question that concerns our lives!" Ye Yanci said in a deep voice.

"I'm sure there's no problem!" Qian Er'er hurriedly spoke, but his voice was a little low, clearly lacking confidence.

Ye Yanci frowned, but he still raised his hand and threw an Energy Card to Qian Er'er. Since no one else in the group had said anything, it was obvious that no one had such a Low Tier Card.

"Here you go! You had to hurry up and design one. Although the water level wasn't rising fast, it wasn't slow either!"

Qian Er'er took the Energy Card and understood that time was of the essence. He quickly sat at the empty card designing table and started fiddling with it.

At the same time, Xu Wang, who was immersed in designing the Waterproof Bead Card, opened his eyes and looked around.

In his hand was the newly created Waterproof Bead Card. However, other than him, no one knew the abilities of this card.

As for the things that happened in the Card Designing Lab, he had heard about them when he was designing cards, so he naturally knew what was going on in the class.

Xu Wang shook his head and didn't think too much about it.

He decided to check the card's attributes first before thinking about how to deal with it.

However, at this moment, a hand suddenly rested on his shoulder, and a familiar voice sounded in his ear.

"Wangzai, you're finally done."

Xu Wang smiled helplessly. He had no choice but to give up on checking the card's attributes and looked up at Ye Yanci.

"Mr. Ye, what can I do for you?"

"My God. I can't even call you anymore!" Ye Yanci said happily.

"That's not it."

"Do you know what happened in class when you were designing the card in the Card Designing Lab for free? What are we going to face?"

"I vaguely heard that the Dragon Palace Drill Ground has revived," Xu Wang pointed at the ground and said calmly.

Compared to before, the water level had clearly risen a little higher, and it could already submerge his calves.

"D*mn, how can you be so calm when you know about this? You have to know that the large-scale revival of the Dragon Palace Drill Ground will really kill people!" Ye Yanci stared at Xu Wang and said seriously.

"Things will eventually sort themselves out," Xu Wang was as calm as an ancient well.

"You're still the best, but let me tell you a piece of good news. I begged Fairy Chu for you for a long time just now, and she finally agreed to let you join our team. You don't have to worry about it. Fairy Chu will protect you. I've been good to you, haven't I?" Ye Yanci laughed and said.

Xu Wang spread his hands when he heard that.

"I was designing cards just now. I'm not deaf. Other than the beginning, you didn't mention me after that."

"..."

Ye Yanci was speechless. After a while, he said, "Wangzai, I realize that I can't communicate with you in-depth every time!"

"Hehehehe."

...

At the same time, in Li Chongsi's small group.

Li Chongsi was designing cards that could survive in water with his eyes closed. Before he designed the Energy Card, he had handed over the management rights of their group to his two lackeys.

At this moment, the two lackeys were beside Li Chongsi.

One of them was a tall and thin man, and the other was a short and thin man. These two were discussed.

"Sun Zhuge, do you think we can survive the revival of the Drill Ground in the Ancient Secret Area?"

The short and thin man spoke with a hint of fear in his voice.

The tall and thin man looked at him and said with certainty, "Buhui, don't worry. With Young Master Li around, there will be no problem."

"That's good, that's good, that's good..." After getting Sun Zhuge's affirmation, the short and thin man muttered.

Having grown up in Xue City, they had more or less heard of the disaster that occurred after the large-scale revival of the Dragon Palace Drill Ground.

Besides, their current situation wasn't too good. They were trapped in this medium-sized Card Designing Lab.

"However..." Sun Zhuge suddenly spoke again.

"Sun Zhuge, however? Please tell me, don't scare me!" The short and thin man immediately asked.

"Look, there are 64 people in the class, and our group has 20 people, which makes up nearly one-third of the total. There are 72 card designing tables in the Card Designing Lab, and each table has 5 Energy Cards."

"Well, is there a problem?" The short man continued to ask.

"There's a big problem here. Do the math. Seventy-two fives equate to 360 Energy Cards. Then, the class consumed 64 Energy Cards when designing Energy Cards, so there are still 296 left in the Card Designing Lab.

However, our group only has about 80 Energy Cards.

Do you think 80 Energy Cards will be able to last until we are saved when the Dragon Palace Secret Area floods?

It was said that the large-scale revival of Dragon Palace in history had lasted for several days, or even ten days to half a month!

We are trapped here. Whether it is to create Living Material Cards or Underwater Survival Cards, we need Energy Cards!

The Energy Card is life."

Sun Zhuge said slowly.

"You're confusing me with so many numbers. Sun Zhuge, why don't you just tell me what I should do!" The short and thin man seemed to be at a loss.

"Alas~" Sun Zhuge sighed, "As expected, the wise are all lonely. Look at the other three groups. Are they also designing cards that can survive in water?"

The short and skinny man nodded.

"Then, do we just need to stop them from designing cards before the flood in the Dragon Palace, and they will come to us?"

"Ah, I understand now. You are indeed resourceful. As long as they join us, our number of Energy Cards will increase, and the chances of survival will increase, too!" The short and thin man had a look of realization.

Sun Zhuge touched his beardless chin and nodded slowly, "You're worth teaching! Then I'll show you another way. According to my observation, Fairy... Chu Jingyi didn't manage his group at all, so you might as well start from there!"

"I understand!"

"Fairy Chu, I'm sorry. What I'm going to do next is for your good!" The short and thin man muttered in his heart. Then, as if he had gathered a great deal of courage, he left without looking back.

Sun Zhuge revealed a satisfied smile and then said to the other members of the group, "Your guys go and look around as well. See if there are any Energy Cards left behind in the card designing table or drawer!"
