The Word Spiritist of the Card World

Chapter 29 Two Interpretations
At this time, Gai Picheng noticed that after Tuantuan bit the blue-bearded serpent, its emblem began to walk behind the stone tablet—the tombstone of the Goddess of Time was in the middle of the progress bar, and after the action, the emblem would appear Return to the starting point of the progress bar.

For a long time, Ge Picheng has never seen it, what is the use of the second half...

I just read in the book that it will appear here when it is "continuous skill use" or "pre-casting".

Tuantuan's [Bite] is obviously a skill that needs to be used continuously, and the duration... is probably the time it takes to finish the second half of the progress bar!

This [Bite] not only continued to cause damage to the target, but also greatly suppressed the speed of the target on the progress bar.

After Gai Picheng [hehe], Kaifei made up another stab with a short knife, and finally it was the turn of the blue-bearded serpent...

I saw the green-bearded serpent struggling violently, throwing Tuantuan flying out, hitting a tree, and Tuantuan was obviously injured, but... the "break free" action was the same as the exclusive active card, consuming the green beard Orochi's time!
This is a practical skill for a hunter partner in one-on-one hunting.

However, usually due to insufficient [Physical], the green-bearded snake would be thrown away immediately after it was bitten, but now because of the injury, the green-bearded snake can only break free when it is its own time.

The damage done to Tuantuan is obviously not high.

And after Tuantuan was thrown away, he returned to the starting point of the progress bar, and now he is faster than the injured green-bearded serpent, another [pounce]...

In the end, under the staggered attacks of Kaifei and Tuantuan, and... the occasional [hehe], the blue-bearded snake completely fell down.

As the surrounding space subdivided and disappeared, Kaifei also heaved a sigh of relief, and soon saw the body of the blue-bearded serpent. At this time, several wounds burst out, spurting blood.

In previous battles, there were no visible injuries, and the impact was expressed in the form of "injury cards". However, once the battle is over and the injuries are settled, it will be "flesh and blood"!

"Finally kill it! Now I can breathe a sigh of relief." After feeling overwhelmed, Kaifei came to the big snake's head, half-kneeled down, and stroked its head, as if doing some kind of sacrifice, which should be the custom of ancient rumor hunters .

Then came the harvesting stage, where Kefilisso skinned, deboned, and shaved the green-bearded serpent—because he could go back to the academy immediately, and there was no need to waste the meat.

Gai Picheng was a little puzzled when he saw this: "Where's that arrow just now? Is it considered spent?"

Mentioning the arrow, Kai Fei's expression became a little bit painful again: "Most of the snakes ended up working for the blacksmith!"

Generally speaking, the relationship between hunters and blacksmiths is not so "exploitative" - ​​under normal circumstances, a hunter of Kaifei's strength would not insist on hunting the green-bearded serpent, and the investment and return are simply out of proportion!

And Kaifei's hunting was not purely for profit considerations...

"So the arrow really disappeared?" Gai Picheng was even more puzzled.

If this is the case, are the resources of this world... really enough?

And it’s really okay to continue to consume materials like this?

"Huh? Since it is used in battle, of course it will consume arrows...otherwise?" Kai Fei obviously didn't understand what Ge Picheng was wondering about.

Kaifei continued to complain while talking: "So blacksmiths really make money... Whether it's repairing weapons or forging these consumables, they are indispensable."

"No, no, if this is the case, maybe one day there will be no iron to fight?" Gai Picheng expressed his doubts.

"Huh? How is it possible that the consumed iron will also appear in the iron ore!" Kai Fei said as a matter of course.

So whether it is iron ore or other consumable materials in this world, it will be regenerated, and its value is far greater than it seems.

Of course, the location of "regeneration" is not static. If you dig for too long, the mine will gradually dry up, but new mines will always be produced.

"Why... the metal will return to the mine?" Gai Picheng thought this was very miraculous.

Kaifei carried part of the wrapped meat to Gai Picheng, and said, "Let's think about it, what's that called... Ah! By the way, it's the 'four-element theory'! According to the four-element theory , it seems to say... the standard of the earth element is in the sinking position, and metal is also a kind of earth element, so in the absence of external interference, it will be attributed to the sinking position..."

Kaifei also didn't know much about this, after all, it wasn't necessary knowledge for hunters.

However, the "four-element theory" mentioned by Kai Fei, Gai Picheng has also read in the book, is a very famous theory of scholars in the Western Continent. It was first born in Changshi Peninsula, which appeared only a few decades ago. .

It probably means that everything in the world can be classified into the four elements of earth, water, fire, and wind, and they all have their own positions, and they will return to their original positions without external interference.

Among them, the earth element is the thickest, and if metal is also an earth element, then indeed from this aspect, the principle of metal disappearance and regeneration may be explained.

Of course, this is just a theory put forward by scholars, and it may not be the truth. Ge Picheng felt unreliable from the very beginning-why forged arrows would disappear in battle, which is very strange in itself!
It's just that people in this world don't feel that there is anything wrong.

"But there is still a mysterious explanation, I like that one better!" Kaifei might be a little embarrassed to show her timidity, so she said forcefully.

"What's the explanation?" Gai Picheng wondered.

I saw Kai Fei seriously saying: "The reason why the arrow is a consumable is because... it is the resentment of the craftsman and the god of forging after death! Hahaha..."

Gai Picheng: ...

Ge Picheng suddenly felt that if he had to choose between the scholar school and the occult school, he would choose the latter.

Because...Gai Picheng obviously prefers the latter explanation too!At least simpler.

This is also the reason why the college will take exams by department. Otherwise, regardless of the teachers of Lizhan and Minzhan, the teachers of the scholar school and the occult school will probably die when they are grading papers, or when they are desperately fighting with the other teacher.

Now that he successfully hunted down the blue-bearded serpent, Kaifei didn't go to see the black feather eagle, but took Gai Picheng back to the academy directly.
When the two returned to the Qidong dormitory, it was already dark—because they were carrying a large number of battle supplies, which slowed down their speed.

"Is there any food left for us?" Kaifei shouted as soon as she opened the dormitory door.

then……

Gai Picheng saw that two boys in the dining room were swirling food into their mouths like a storm.

Mu Geli happened to be there too. At this time, he looked at it and said: "There is good news and bad news... The good news is that Elf has left a meal for you, and the bad news... Guess what?"
