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.

A Melee (II)

Chen Mu raised his right hand with no hesitation, and a strange whistling suddenly filled the crowd's eardrums. A faint, pale blue shadow cut through the sky, shooting toward someone's figure in the crowd.

Hugo's face shifted. He was in the middle of preparing to emit the powerful Aurora Beam with all his might. He hadn't thought his adversary would be able to react so quickly! Moreover, the timing was just right; unless he could dodge it, the blow would be inevitable.

What he was using would create the most powerful blow he knew of—the Aurora Beam Tubular Cannon. It had massive power, but it required that he deploy all of his perception to emit it. There would be no way to erect an energy cloak to protect himself.

Still, Hugo didn't intend to stop his firing of the Aurora Beam Tubular Canon.
