Nightmare Card House

"What is Heather doing in the Shadow Realm? Specifically?"

"Nothing specific. I'm not familiar with that friend. I just heard a few words like this by chance and thought it might be useful to you. If you want to meet that friend of mine..."

"No need." Fang Tian waved his hand and refused, "I have severe social phobia."

Yu Xuan smiled, put down the cup, and changed into a more comfortable position, "Okay, what about your situation? Seeing as you are so short of money, it seems that the situation in the film industry is not good?"

"It's really not good."

Fang Tian shrugged, thinking about the current situation in Notting City, he still felt it was a bit troublesome.

It's better to take this opportunity to ask Yu Xuan for advice.

This thought flashed through Fang Tian's mind, and Fang Tian asked casually: "Yu Xuan, if a monster attacks the city, what are your best ways to deal with it?"

"Monsters attacking the city?" Yu Xuan's beautiful eyes flickered on Fang Tian's face for a moment. This description reminded her of certain games. She smiled and said, "It's very simple. Build a mage tower for defense."

Mage tower?

This word awakened some memories of Fang Tian Zengjin.

Fang Tian once saw the card Mage Tower in the card book.

This card had very little description, and it was very expensive to buy points. It was a three-star level card. At that time, Fang Tian only had two stars, so it was useless to him, so Fang Tian quickly skipped it.

"Is it a construction card?"

"Yes, building cards. The first-stage mage tower can provide sufficient defense and attack, as well as special effects such as buff meditation. It is especially effective against low-level creatures. A mage tower can exert a powerful defensive effect. , if I remember correctly, the price of a card is 200,000 points."

Two hundred thousand points...

Fang Tian's heart twitched.

Yu Xuan noticed Fang Tian's expression, "What? Are you really short of money?"

Can it still be fake?

Fang Tian felt even more bitter in his heart. With a glimmer of hope, he raised his head and said, "How about you borrow more?"

"I haven't paid off the last one yet."

"Oh, yes. I wish I had borrowed more last time."

Fang Tian sighed. Yu Xuan admired the Mage Tower very much. It should be very effective. Unfortunately, there is no money. Otherwise, it can only rely on skeletal creatures to deal with the beast tide.

Just as he was thinking about it, he raised his head and noticed that Yu Xuan was looking at him.

"What's wrong?"

"Are you really short of money?"

"lack."

"I do have a way for you to raise a large amount of money in a short time, but..."

Fang Tian didn't want to hear the consequences, so he interrupted: "What method?"

"Special cards for sale."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"As the trainee master of the card hall, you have the highest authority in the card hall." Yu Xuan paused, looked at Fang Tian, ​​and gestured, "You should also know that the card book of the card hall is divided into various categories. The purchase levels are even divided into three stages: novice players, ordinary players, and elite players. The card books they see are all different. Do you know the reason for this? "

Fang Tian stretched out his hand to signal Yu Xuan to continue.

"A resource in the card hall of the card book, such as the first-order mage tower building card we just mentioned." Xuan explained patiently: "After the card hall is newly built, this card initially has After purchasing the remaining two cards and clearing them out, if you are lucky, the card hall rated as Level 1 will have a new card in stock every six months on average."

Fang Tian had already vaguely noticed what Yu Xuan wanted to say, and he was thoughtful.

Yu Xuan explained word for word: "We can sell this resource."

Fang Tian's eyelids twitched.

"For example, the Mage Tower card I just mentioned requires 200,000 points to purchase in the card gallery. However, the average price of this card outside is 250,000. If you are lucky, it can be sold for 300,000. It's possible."

Fang Tian understood what Yu Xuan meant by selling resources.

There are still some rare cards like Mage Tower in the card book. The refresh rate of these cards is extremely low, but the demand from the outside world is very high.

Selling them can raise a large sum of money in a short period of time.

On the contrary, if you need to use these cards under special circumstances in the future, you may need to pay a higher price to buy them back.

"Go and discuss with Chike. If you want to sell, I can introduce you to some trustworthy friends."

…

The next day, the sun was shining brightly.

Outside Notting City, a group of people were ready to go.

The recruits behind Hobson were wearing newly customized armor, holding long guns, and were in high spirits.

After more than half a month of rigorous training, they have transformed.

Hobson looked at these new recruits and shook his head secretly. This was their first time going out of the city for actual combat, and he was unsure.

Unlike these high-spirited recruits, the mercenaries were obviously very experienced. They hid in twos and threes under the nearby big trees, lazing around openly, and some even stretched out their hands to point at the new recruits. , looking like he was guiding the country.

These mercenaries were all brought by Artoli.

After much hesitation, and at Artoli's strong request, Hobson accepted the Adira Chamber of Commerce's request and asked Artoli to lead people to participate in this operation.

He needs these mercenaries hired by the Adila Chamber of Commerce. Although they seem lazy, the experience and combat effectiveness of these mercenary groups can help them if they encounter danger.

Of course, it's better not to be in danger.

These mercenaries were all cursing and feeling unhappy, wondering if Fang Tian had nothing to do after eating, and he had to go to the ancient forest to explore in such a hot day.

Explore? What is there to explore? When the beast tide comes, is Fang Tian going to take his soldiers to the ancient forest to fight the monsters?

This is obviously impossible. To be honest, these mercenaries are very pessimistic. They think that Notting City has been destroyed this time. If they can rely on the city wall to resist the beast tide, it will be a miracle.

Lan Qi also brought more than a dozen apprentices from the alchemy workshop to join this exploration. They also hired a group of mercenaries to protect their safety. Of course, the most important thing is to protect their accompanying supplies.

After Hobson finished counting, he walked behind a carriage and reported: "Mr. Fang Tian, ​​the time is up, we can set off."

Fang Tian yawned, glanced at the lazy mercenary groups, and was too lazy to say anything. He waved his hand and signaled Hobson to start.

Fang Tian had spent half the night talking with Yu Xuan about card building and the card house. He was a little sleepy and had just woken up after a nap.

He pulled himself together and took the map handed to him by A Luo. Fang Tian took a quick look at the general terrain.

According to Hobson's introduction, the ancient forest is vast and rich in resources...
