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 vs. Ba Luojia

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Since it was a tournament, it would logically not be carried out in the corridor pavilion. Luckily, Tai-shu Zheng had prepared a place earlier.

In front of everyone was an advanced arena specially designed for matches. Being about 200 meters long and 100 meters wide, it was massive. An enormous energy shield started rising up, so the people could see the match clearly without worrying about their safety. The protective ability of the energy shield for that type of arena was usually unbelievably strong. Except when masters like Tang Hanpei went all-out or with the use of war cards, ordinary card artisans couldn't even budge the shield by a bit. Using the card was quite costly, however, as it consumed a six-star power card every three hours.
