The Card Apprentice

This is both a work of science fiction and an exploration of the meaning of life, love, literature and art. Brainpower is no longer the main ingredient for being human in this far distant future world. Spirituality, physical balance, and diligence all come together as integrity for Chen Mu, the Card Apprentice. The cards which Chen Mu masters in his own scrappy way, distill all the powers of the cosmos – human and nonhuman – into something that is not a book, not technology, and neither art nor magic, but is these and more. Learn about these strange cards, which can embody everything you might imagine for the future of technology, but also a future beyond technology which promotes the best, and sometimes the worst, from mankind’s past.

Chen Mu was immersed in danger! The model in his head had already calculated the path of the Pointed Cloudburst, and his perception had firmly locked in on the quickly approaching ball of air. His calculation even included the best angle and position to cut into it.

However, the energy bead sphere surrounding him was already only a remnant. That change in conditions led to the results of his calculations also changing. He couldn't completely counteract the Pointed Cloudburst's impact. Right. It was impossible! So, what could he do?

He lifted his head to see Jin Yin plunging down with shocking power at high speed. In Chen Mu's eyes was an endless urge to battle and a wild longing for victory!

Hong! His brain felt like it had been suddenly poured full of molten iron, with burning pain to go along with the pleasure filling his entire body in an instant!
