Folk Card Maker: Starting from Painted Skin

They were ten card creators, and all of them platinum-level.

Even at top domestic institutions like the Magic Metropolis Card Academy, hearing their rank would inspire a respectful attitude.

After all, they were platinum card creators.

Yet, upon entering the secret realm, in the blink of an eye, they had lost three members, one of whom had left them forever.

In that instant, Zhang Jingtian suddenly understood why everyone knew the secret realm held abundant resources, yet they could only be compelled to enter through forceful means.

Because dying in the secret realm meant truly dying; there was no chance of resurrection.

"Let's go," the Ghost Fire Youth seemed to have experienced too many such events, becoming increasingly numb.

"They knew this could happen before they came; it was their choice."

Zhang Jingtian bit his lip, ultimately saying nothing more.

"Do you think there are any living people left in this town?" a card creator suddenly asked at this moment.

Just as everyone shook their heads, Zhang Jingtian suddenly remembered something:

"There's still one person alive, the receptionist!"

Initially, they hadn't suspected the receptionist because they hadn't clearly seen the horrific state outside.

That only left one answer: the girl, she was also suspicious!

She was likely the person lying in the coffin they had been searching for all along!

Zhang Jingtian's words finally awakened everyone, their expressions changing, and they began heading towards the hotel.

However, on the way back, where everything had seemed normal before, various monsters now blocked their path.

Fortunately, they had learned their lesson this time, having a spirit guide the way, while the others dared not look around.

After all, these creatures didn't petrify upon being seen, but rather upon making eye contact.

So, as long as they remained vigilant, they could close their eyes immediately upon spotting them.

Daji and White Snake's cooperation became increasingly refined, gradually forming a routine where White Snake would first use her water domain to slow down enemies, followed by Daji evaporating them with flames.

Those beside them watched with admiration.

They never expected that Zhang Jingtian, whom they initially looked down upon, would be the strongest fighter among their group of card creators.

"Your two spirits are only level 1? I didn't expect them to be so powerful!"

Zhang Jingtian smiled upon hearing this, knowing that due to his story, the spirits he created were inherently more powerful than average.

When they finally reached the hotel entrance, the young woman was indeed there waiting for them.

However, she had already changed her face, appearing like a beautiful puppet devoid of thought.

"You've come."

She smiled, her voice becoming ethereal.

The Ghost Fire Youth immediately shouted, "Everyone, close your eyes!"

Immediately after, he threw out three cards at once, all aimed towards the woman.

"Hehe," the woman chuckled, "Don't be afraid; looking into my eyes doesn't have that effect. Otherwise, you all would have already been turned to stone."

Subsequently, the woman's body underwent a sudden transformation, turning into a massive monster with a human head and a snake's body, even her hair was composed of sea serpents.

This appearance, coupled with the ability to petrify people, immediately reminded Zhang Jingtian of a figure from Western legends: Medusa.

However, this Medusa was likely not in her complete form.

Otherwise, given her notoriety, her strength would probably be more than this.

Yes, as the final BOSS in a hazardous secret realm, Medusa was still only an orange card, but her level was probably maxed out at 60.

However, facing such a head-on enemy, the Ghost Fire Youth instead breathed a sigh of relief; at least they could all go all out.

"Kill her together, avenge them!"

At this moment, everyone held nothing back, throwing all their spirits, equipment cards, and spell cards at Medusa.

Zhang Jingtian experienced this level of chaotic battle for the first time, finding the visual effects quite impressive.

Flashy and dazzling, it truly felt like a battle of deities.

And Zhang Jingtian also summoned four spirits to fight simultaneously for the first time.

At that moment, he truly felt his mental power rapidly draining, fortunately, he could still endure it.

Seeing such a powerful opponent, Zakiram also knew that she couldn't pull the opponent into her painting at this time, as she would definitely be instantly killed afterward.

She and Loulan were stealing damage from the side at this time; being only purple cards, they knew they couldn't be the main force in the battle.

Daji went all out at this time; although her charm had little effect on Medusa, her damage still accumulated.

Moreover, her speed was extremely fast, like a mosquito, constantly harassing the opponent.

As for White Snake, her effect in this kind of battle was even more outstanding.

The continuous healing and shields made it difficult for Medusa to kill people instantly; in the blink of an eye, their injuries would recover.

Several card creators cast envious glances at Zhang Jingtian.

To be honest, although Daji's output was high and she had control abilities, such spirits were not uncommon.

But spirits like White Snake who could heal were truly rare.

They only felt that, as expected of a student from the Magic Metropolis Card Academy, his resources were much better than theirs.

Yes, they all thought that Zhang Jingtian's White Snake was created with the help of the school.

However, the purification effect was useless against Medusa.

Compared to her subordinates, Medusa herself didn't have any control skills, but her output was extremely fierce, and her health bar was very thick.

Zhang Jingtian threw out all the spell cards he had in stock at this time.

He knew that now was not the time to save these resources, otherwise, the situation would become even more tense. What he had to do was defeat Medusa and get out of the secret realm alive.

During this period, there were still card creators and their spirits who fell together.

When one card creator departed, he directly threw out all his potions.

"You must kill her, live on! Kill all the Scourge Legion!"

Zhang Jingtian was greatly encouraged; these card creators, who were somewhat hostile to him, had forgotten their conflicts at this moment in the face of a common enemy.

They only had one goal: to kill all the Scourge Legion and restore peace to the world.

Daji jumped onto Medusa's back, and after seeing that Medusa was already physically exhausted, she used her last skill.

The foxfire, like a string of bullets, finally engulfed Medusa.
