Chapter 3957 Awakening
Since the challenge at the first point failed, Angel had no intention of staying any longer and prepared to turn around and leave.
But at this moment, Kang Mu suddenly spoke.
"Sir, can I have a chance to draw from this gashapon machine?"
Angel turned to look at Com, who scratched the back of his head a little embarrassedly: "Although Monster Card Duel has been out of fashion for a long time, for card lovers, card collecting is also a kind of fun. I myself have the habit of collecting monster cards..."
"I just took a look at the brief description below the gashapon machine."
"The first prize actually includes a rare Starry Fantasy Butterfly Monster Card." Kang: "When this card was first issued, it was said that there were only one thousand of them. It is a rare fantasy card."
"I want to try... to see if I can pull it out."
Kangmu was a little worried that this gashapon machine was important, and he specifically asked, "Just draw once, okay?"
Angel doesn't care about Com's card drawing, but this gashapon machine should be a prop in the "Nine Stars in a Row" mission. Can Com really draw?
Angel thought for a moment and said vaguely, "You can go and try."
Kangmu's eyes lit up, he nodded, and came to the gashapon machine.
Angel watched Kang's every move with a serious expression. When he saw Kang pick up the game coin and put it into the gashapon machine, and the gashapon machine began to stir...
From beginning to end, no information from the fairyland was generated, and there was no fairyland power roaming nearby.
Angel now understood that non-challengers could use the Gachapon machine if they found it, but it would not be related to the "Nine Stars in a Row" mission.
No, there is some connection.
Because there were only five game coins, Gleipnir used one, Angel used one, and now Com used another one.
Then if another challenger receives the "Nine Stars in a Row" mission, then at most only two challengers can open the Gachapon machine...
This is considered to squeeze the challenger's mission space.
However, it has no impact at the moment. After all, there are only a few challengers in the Modern City dungeon, and no one else will take advantage of Zuniga's mission.
Ding-dong-
A blue and white capsule box fell out from the exit of the gashapon machine.
There was anticipation in Kang's eyes.
"Is the Starry Fantasy Butterfly a gold card?" Angel asked curiously.
Kang Mu shook his head: "No, the Starry Butterfly is only a purple card, but it is rarer than a gold card."
"Although gold cards are rare, this rarity is only for the poor. For people with spare money in their pockets, it is nothing."
"And purple phantom cards like the Starry Phantom Butterfly are really rare, because there are only a thousand in stock."
Come to think of it, Kang was really surprised to find the Starry Butterfly monster card in this gashapon machine. This has already disappeared in the outside world, but he didn't expect it to appear in this warehouse where it has been stored for who knows how long?
With an expectant look, Kangm opened the capsule box.
A purple monster card fell gracefully.
When the card flipped over and fell, Ingres had already seen the illustration on it, which was a dreamy butterfly fluttering in the starry sky.
Yes, it is the Starry Illusion Butterfly.
When Com saw that the monster card was the Starry Fantasy Butterfly, he also cried out in surprise.
The only thing missing from his monster card collection is this Starry Fantasy Butterfly!
Moreover, the fashion magic ratio in this Starry Fantasy Butterfly is also very good, and it also has a hidden ability.
If this was sold when Monster Card Duels were popular, it would cost at least several thousand, or even tens of thousands!
Com happily put away the Starry Fantasy Butterfly's monster card, while Angel watched silently.
The lucky gap, the contrast is so strong in this small warehouse.
……
Underwater church.
Laplace also saw Com draw out the Starry Illusion Butterfly.
"Now I understand why you always look for him every time you draw a card." Laplace said slowly.
The requirement for Nine Stars in a Row is: gold will come out as soon as it is released.
Com's achievement is: whatever it says comes true.
Comparing the two, it seems that Com's is more powerful.
Moreover, from what Com said, the purple phantom card is not weaker than the gold card, and may even be rarer.
From this point of view, Com is actually quite suitable for the Sad Star, but it is a pity that he is not a challenger and cannot receive the task of Nine Stars in a Row.
Return to the live broadcast screen.
After Com drew the Starry Fantasy Butterfly, Angel asked Com to draw another one.
Anyway, they don’t need the game coins, and no one will use them in the future, so it doesn’t matter if they are wasted.
Although Com was confused, he still picked up the game coin as Angel asked.
"Besides the Starry Fantasy Butterfly Monster Card, do you have any other monster cards you want?" Angel asked.
Kangmu shook his head: "That's not the case. I have all the other monster cards."
Insert coin and open the box.
Finally, a blue monster card was opened: Retro Old Man.
After seeing the card, Kang Mu smiled at Angel and said, "I'm just unlucky. It's almost impossible to make money right away."
Angel didn't respond. Instead, he was silent for a moment and said, "There is one coin left. You can draw one last time. When you draw this time, remember in your mind that I want this card."
Angel pointed to the top layer of the card preview on the gashapon machine, which was the first of the five gold cards: Slide Lantern.
"Slide lantern? But I have this one in my collection."
"It doesn't matter. Just focus on the fact that you really want this card. Don't worry about anything else." Angel: "Do you understand?"
Kang Mu finally nodded: "Okay."
This time, Com followed Angel's request and his mind was full of Slideshow's monster cards. Not only was he thinking about it in his mind, he was also muttering to himself. In this state, he started the last round of gashapon.
After a while, the capsule toy was opened, and inside was not a gold card, but a blue card: Outdated Spirit.
Kang Mu looked apologetic: "My luck is really bad."
Angel looked at the outdated monster card and was silent for a long time.
He now had a rough guess about Com's "fortune". Com said that he had bad luck, which was obviously wrong.
He has good luck with anything he needs badly.
But if there is no desire from the heart, even if Angel forces him to have the idea of "wanting", it will not trigger good luck.
Just like the "lucky passive" that Ingres had guessed before, his luck will only manifest itself when he really wants it from the bottom of his heart or is stimulated by certain external factors.
Normally, his luck can only be described as normal.
This is actually quite good, because if you have too much good luck, it will become a light in the darkness, enough to attract the attention of everyone in the dark, otherwise you may become a target and bring bad luck.
Limited good fortune can protect Com from being coveted by outsiders. Although he is now "coveted" by Angell, looking back at his first half of life, there was no trouble, which is evident. In any case, Angell is just an outsider.
After leaving Tomb Street.
Angle lets Com go on his own.
After Com left, Angel walked towards the outskirts of the Eighth Town.
"Where are you going?" Laplace asked while watching the live broadcast in the underwater church.
Angel: "Go fishing."
Laplace was stunned for two seconds before he reacted: "Are you still planning to challenge the Nine Stars Link?"
Angel nodded: "Let's give it a try. The fishing spot is not far away anyway."
Laplace was about to say something, but suddenly, the live broadcast stopped. Angel on the other side glanced to the side, as if hinting at something.
Laplace was stunned, and looked back following Angel's hint.
However, Hua Yuan's eyelids were twitching wildly in the soundproof barrier, and her body was twisting slightly, as if she had entered the awakening period.
Even Cherry opened the magic book on her own and jumped out. She looked at Huayuan with concern, while looking at Angel and Laplace with vigilance.
"Wake up soon, the live broadcast will stop first." Angel snapped his fingers, and the live broadcast screen disappeared instantly.
Then, after the second snap of the fingers, the soundproof barrier surrounding Hua Yuan gradually dissipated.
The moment the barrier dissipated, groaning sounds were heard from inside.
As Hua Yuan stretched her body, her eyes slowly opened and she propped herself up to sit up.
But after sitting up, Hua Yuan seemed not to be awake yet. His eyes were still dazed and he muttered, "I'm so sleepy, I still want to sleep..."
After a long while, until Cherry began to push her shoulders, Huayuan slowly raised her head and looked around in a daze. Then, her eyes suddenly widened.
"what--"
With a loud cry, she finally woke up completely.
……
five minutes later.
Huayuan has learned the "truth" from Laplace and Angel.
"So, what you mean is that I was not favored by the Holy Eye Prayer Gathering Array?" Hua Yuan pointed at the stage and then at himself.
Angel nodded: "Yes. According to our research, when the Holy Eyes Prayer Array is activated, Dark Corner will randomly pull people from the array."
"And you, unfortunately, were not chosen." Angel paused, his eyes flickering: "Of course, this could also be a kind of luck."
"Is this... luck?" Hua Yuan's eyes were a little dazed.
She was clearly ready to give everything, and even abandoned the dye workshop and came here directly, standing in the magic circle, but she was not chosen.
How is this lucky?
Moreover, today she was able to step into the Holy Eyes Prayer Gathering Array with all her strength. But would she still have such passion and impulse tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?
Really not necessarily.
"This is not lucky at all..." Huayuan sighed.
She had thought that this time it was a sure thing, but unexpectedly, something went wrong at the last minute.
"That man with extremely broad shoulders is Sigismund... Has he been chosen?" Hua Yuan looked around and did not see Sigismund, and her heart shuddered.
Angel nodded: "Yes, he was chosen."
Hua Yuan's eyes dimmed instantly. If no one was chosen, she would feel better. But now that Sigimund was chosen, she was the only one left out, which made her even more upset.
"He wasn't talking nonsense just now. For you, not being selected is actually a kind of luck."
At this moment, Laplace suddenly spoke.
Huayuan looked over in confusion, and Laplace continued, "We only knew that you were going to the Dark Corner to treat Cherry, but we didn't know what disease Cherry had. It was not until the magic circle was activated and Angel asked you that we learned that Cherry was suffering from an etheric disease caused by the erosion of etheric energy."
Hua Yuan nodded blankly. Indeed, it was when the magic circle was activated that Angel asked about cherries.
Moreover, Hua Yuan was not stupid. She knew at that time that the reason why Angel suddenly asked about Cherry's illness was simply because he saw that she was a little flustered and wanted to calm her down through conversation.
Huayuan: "Is there anything wrong with this?"
Laplace shook his head, "There's nothing wrong with that, but if we had known that Cherry was suffering from the etheric disease, then you wouldn't have to go to the dark corner, we would have a way to treat it."
"???"
"!!!"
Hua Yuan's expression changed from confusion to seeking confirmation and then to shock. She was completely stunned. After a long while, she said, "You...you just said that you can cure ether disease?"
Laplace nodded. "Yes, we have some understanding of the symptoms of etheric erosion, but the treatment results vary from person to person. We can't guarantee whether it can be completely cured, but at least it can alleviate Cherry's symptoms."
Laplace said calmly.
If the etheric converter can absorb the etheric energy in Cherry's body, it can heal her.
If the ether converter cannot absorb it, Angel can still use Nightmare to isolate the ether energy. - It may not work in reality, but this is a copy, and Nightmare is the foundation of the world. It is no problem to shield the ether erosion and relieve Cherry's symptoms.
Therefore, Laplace dared to guarantee it and said it with certainty.
Hua Yuan didn't know the inside story, so she couldn't believe what Laplace said: "But even the people from the Flash Gold Association can't treat it..."
The Flash Gold Association can be said to be the strongest organization in the entire continent. Even the Flash Gold Association can't cure it, so how can an unknown person cure it?
Could this be the "strong man hides in the city" mentioned in the novel? Hua Yuan suddenly thought of some romance novels she had read, which did contain such plots.
But as a magician, she still has some understanding of the magic world. This kind of plot can be imagined by ordinary authors, and it does not exist in reality.
Huayuan's eyes were uncertain, and Laplace didn't know what she was thinking, so he continued: "After the treatment, you will see the effect, and then you will know whether I lied to you or not."
"Or are you worried that Cherry might have bad thoughts about us while we're treating her?"
Hua Yuan shook her head. As Cherry's owner, she could control Cherry anytime and anywhere, and could always listen to Cherry's heart, so she was not worried that Cherry would encounter any harm during treatment.
She thought for a moment and said softly, "Then do I need to pay any price?"
Although Hua Yuan was still a little skeptical in her heart, she still wanted to give it a try. What if?
"The price?" Laplace shook his head. "No price is required. Just like when we decided to send you into the dark corner, we didn't think about asking you to pay a price."
Hua Yuan's eyes showed disbelief again.
Angel then said, "If you insist on talking about the price, then keep it secret."
"Keep it secret?"
Angel nodded and said, "After you leave here, you must not tell anyone else about the information here, especially the fact that the entrance to the dark corner is here."
Ingres saw through Huayuan's character and knew that without a "price", she would definitely feel uneasy.
I simply brought up the subsequent warning now and named it "price".
After hearing this, Hua Yuan nodded immediately and said, "Okay, I swear I won't tell anyone about what happened here, even if I die."
