Folk Card Maker: Starting from Painted Skin

Right now, what Zhang Jingtian needed to do was to first enter the village.

However, he quickly discovered that he couldn't see a single student from the same examination hall in the village.

Just as he was wondering if the others had been assigned to very far away places and hadn't made it to the village yet, he heard a farmer by the roadside say in a low voice, "This exam is one thing, but why do they still want me to plow the fields!"

"I'm not bad," said the elder sister selling meat pies at a stall, "I'm still a small boss!"

Zhang Jingtian suddenly understood that after entering the instance, they had all changed their identities and costumes.

He suspected that this original secret realm was probably even more complex and difficult to deal with.

However, their exam omitted many steps, leading to them becoming villagers, with only the role-playing aspect remaining.

Zhang Jingtian finally found a place where he could look in a mirror, and sure enough, he had also become an old villager with dark skin, looking like he had been chopping firewood for thirty years.

He didn't know if it was because there were too many of them students, filling the entire village to the brim.

As a result, Zhang Jingtian couldn't see anything strange about the village at all.

If he had to say, he felt that the village was just a little old.

However, they soon discovered something was wrong.

As soon as it got dark, the people in the village seemed to have been programmed, almost automatically, they all returned to their homes, and then lay anxiously on their beds.

Zhang Jingtian also lay on the bed, listening to the sounds around him, feeling very complicated.

He thought that he should be allowed to choose his identity at this time, but there was no such option at all.

Could it be that he had misunderstood something?

Zhang Jingtian touched his chin, with a puzzled expression on his face.

And the other people in his house were just NPCs in the village.

They kept saying how scared they were, and seeing Zhang Jingtian constantly looking out the window, they were trying hard to stop him.

As if something terrible would happen if Zhang Jingtian really did that.

Zhang Jingtian had no choice but to turn his head and look at them:

"Someone did the same thing as me before, and then something strange happened, right?"

They looked at each other and said in a low voice:

"Yes, it was a year ago. Originally, everyone in the village would still go out for a walk at night, everything was fine.

But since one day, someone accidentally ran out, they disappeared directly. The people who went to find them never came back. So, you must not go out!"

Zhang Jingtian clicked his tongue, disappeared? They should have been eaten by the Scourge Legion outside.

But how exactly was the appearance of the Scourge Legion triggered?

Although Zhang Jingtian planned to go the combat route, this did not prevent him from wanting to learn more about the plot.

"Before this, did anything strange happen in the village?"

When Zhang Jingtian asked this, after none of them reacted, he knew that there must be a problem.

However, at this moment, Zhang Jingtian suddenly heard a knock on the door outside.

The sound was deafening, and Zhang Jingtian immediately stood up, then leaned against the door.

"Don't go!"

"Don't open the door!"

Zhang Jingtian resolutely opened the door.

He suspected that this was some kind of choice, if he didn't go out when they knocked on the door, it meant that he had chosen the plot mode.

And the moment he walked out of the door, the door closed automatically.

Afterwards, no matter how hard Zhang Jingtian tried, he couldn't get back in.

Without a doubt, this was a coercive way to prevent him from going back.

During the day, the whole village looked normal, just a little bigger than the average village.

But now, Zhang Jingtian immediately realized that this village was completely different.

The gloomy and terrifying atmosphere in the air was lingering.

Strange sounds came from all directions, but he couldn't see the source of the sound no matter what.

Zhang Jingtian frowned, then after scanning his surroundings, he still summoned Huapi first.

Although Huapi was the weakest of his current three heroic spirit cards, summoning her at the first time had become a habit for Zhang Jingtian.

After seeing Zhang Jingtian, Huapi did indeed immediately enter a state of alert.

Immediately afterwards, he saw a afterimage appear in the originally empty place.

Then an injured monster appeared.

It can actually be invisible!

Zhang Jingtian was very envious.

If this wasn't an instance, but a secret realm, and it dropped a few invisible materials, wouldn't he have a chance to give his heroic spirit the ability to become invisible.

It's just that if this thing is invisible, then it is indeed very difficult to deal with, especially for card creators who only have one heroic spirit card, they will definitely be attacked.

Zhang Jingtian felt that as a card creator, he should definitely have a way to detect this monster.

Before that, to be on the safe side, Zhang Jingtian summoned Yingning.

After all, now she only needs to stay by Zhang Jingtian's side to have a chance to upgrade, and Zhang Jingtian certainly can't miss it.

Afterwards, Zhang Jingtian watched Yingning and Huapi stand on his sides, guarding him in the middle, so that those invisible monsters could not get close.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Jingtian himself began to concentrate his mental power, allowing himself to enter the highly concentrated state of card creation.

Then Zhang Jingtian suddenly saw a faint outline appear above his head.

He suddenly lunged forward, dodging this attack.

And Huapi's ghost face suddenly became ferocious, then directly tore the attacking monster into pieces.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Jingtian was relieved.

Fortunately, he had just tried to use his mental power, if he only relied on the heroic spirit, there would still be moments of omissions.

Although this monster's combat power seems to be at the level of blue cards and green cards, it is still fatal to card creators with mortal bodies.

However, the other card creators in the examination hall were not as lucky as Zhang Jingtian.

Originally, there were very few people who chose to fight, but as a result, now, most people were solved by the monsters before they even had time to summon their heroic spirits.

Only the proctors can see the overall situation, in the examination hall where Zhang Jingtian is, only 11 people chose to fight, and now only Zhang Jingtian is alive.

However, the progress of the examinees who chose to solve the mystery is still slow.

They all shook their heads: "The current students are really too delicate, if it were us back then, we would have gone out to fight!"
