What era is it, still traditional card making

Since you told him to have a good rest, why don’t you untie the rope?
Looking at the locked door, Ye Qiong felt indescribable despair.

So how is he supposed to escape from here?

Suddenly, he heard the door open.
Gaia seemed to suddenly remember something, patted his head and said:
"I almost forgot that I haven't untied the ropes on you yet."

After saying that, he just snapped his fingers casually, and the rope on Ye Qiong's body fell to the ground as if it had lost some kind of power.

The long-lost sense of freedom did not make Ye Qiong feel relieved. What Gaia did actually proved one thing.
That is, he had absolute confidence that Ye Qiong could not escape from here, so he took the initiative to untie the ropes on Ye Qiong.

Thinking of this, he felt even more desperate. After hearing the door closing, he kept shouting to the system in his body:

"System, come out! If you don't come out, your host will die!"

Soon, a familiar female voice appeared in Ye Qiong's mind.

"Don't worry, host."

"I've already met the final boss, and you're telling me there's no rush?"

"This is not the final boss at all. Host, you are worrying too much."

"Ok?"

After hearing what the system said, Ye Qiong felt that something was unspeakably wrong.

"Isn't this the final boss? Then what exactly is the final boss?"

"Of course, this system is not convenient to disclose the specific information. Please explore it on your own."

"What use do I have for your system?"

"Don't forget the host. Without my help, you might still be in that shabby little dark room."

"What's the difference between me now and staying in the small dark room?"

"At least the environment has improved, hasn't it?"

"At the same time, the opponents I face have become even more powerful."

Ye Qiong fell weakly on the bed. The mattress was soft, but it did not relieve his stress. He was fed up with this crappy system. He felt like he was caught in a whirlpool and was constantly involved in events since he was bound to this system.

He looked at the ceiling helplessly and spoke to the system in his body again:

"So? Is there really no other way?"

This sentence was said both to the system and to himself.

It is not Ye Qiong's character to blindly rely on others. If it is something he can solve independently, he will never choose to ask others for help.

"Yes, host."

"Wait, there is a solution? What is it?"

Hearing the system's words, Ye Qiong suddenly became alert.
If he wanted to escape from the big boss of the God Worshipping Cult, the only thing he could count on now was this system.

Although he was very reluctant, he had to admit that this was the fact he needed to face now.

"I wonder if the host has noticed one thing, that is, this system is the strongest card master system, but it has never sold any cards."

After hearing what the system said, Ye Qiong recalled the system's mall and suddenly realized that it seemed to be just as the system said.

In the system's mall, there are monster remains and contract skins for sale. There are all kinds of goods, but there is only one crucial thing missing.

That's the card.
Originally, Ye Qiong thought that the functions of the cards would only be unlocked after he became a card master.
But judging from the current situation, things don't seem to be as he guessed?
Do you need to use other methods to obtain cards?

Ye Qiong opened the system's mall with a skeptical attitude and took a closer look. It was just as the system said.

Even though he has become a card master now, there are still no cards for sale in the system's mall.

After realizing this, Ye Qiong asked the system:

"If I want to obtain the cards, do I need to go through other means?"

"That's right, host. This system does not sell cards directly. If you want to get the cards, you need to go to the reincarnation world to get them yourself."

Ye Qiong quickly captured the key words.

"Reincarnation world? Is this a function after awakening to become a card master? How to use it?"

"Yes, regarding the method of use, please close your eyes and experience it now."

"Close your eyes?"

Ye Qiong did what the system said with some doubt.
After closing his eyes, what he saw was not complete darkness, but a blue light screen appeared in front of him.

This is probably the so-called system panel.
After observing it for a while, he quickly discovered that this system panel was not particularly simple.

There are only four functions in total: production, decomposition, recycling, and recharge.

The reincarnation world mentioned by the system just now is probably the third function displayed on the panel.

Ye Qiong could roughly understand the first two functions based on their literal meanings, but what was the fourth function, recharge?
Normally, shouldn't this thing appear in a pay-to-win mobile game? Why is it here?
"System, what currency do I need to use for recharging? Can real money be used for recharging?"

"The remains of monsters, cards in reality, and any material with special powers can be exchanged for the currency needed for reincarnation, which is the reincarnation coin."

"Wreckage? Cards are also fine?"

What the system said seemed to be telling Ye Qiong that it needed to absorb the power contained in these special items.

After absorbing these things, will the system become stronger, or will other functions be derived?

Ye Qiong quietly put this question aside and chose to open the third function displayed on the system panel, which was reincarnation.

For him now, nothing is more important than escaping from here.
In order to leave here, he urgently needs to obtain enough strength to fight against the leader of the God Worshipping Cult.

If this so-called reincarnation world is really as magical as the system says, then this may be his last hope of escaping from here.

After pressing the confirm button,

The system panel began to change.

Several paragraphs of text appeared above, representing the worlds where one was about to go for reincarnation.

Ye Qiong looked at it and saw that there were thirteen reincarnation worlds displayed on the panel, and only three of them had been unlocked so far.

The three are "Fairies of Paradise", "The First Empire", and "Dragon War".
To enter these three reincarnation worlds, 100, 1000, and 10000 reincarnation coins were required respectively. When unlocking the relevant functions, the system generously gave him 1000 reincarnation coins to buy the ticket.

At present, Ye Qiong doesn't have many choices.

Choosing the second reincarnation copy requires using up all the reincarnation coins he has on hand. In the absence of any information, it is better to challenge the more basic levels.

After a little thought, Ye Qiong quickly made a decision and spent 100 reincarnation coins to enter the reincarnation world of "Fairies in Paradise".

After making the decision, the mechanical voice of the system came quickly:
"May I ask if I can bring my skills with me into the reincarnation dungeon?"

In a cafe in Tianjing City,

Just when Ning Shanhai was talking excitedly, Li Qingtian interrupted him in time and raised his own question:

"Shanhai, Ye Qiong was abducted to the headquarters of Fengshen Cult. How did he escape from here? You know, Fengshen Cult was very powerful back then. Even the Investigation Bureau, the predecessor of the Countermeasures Bureau, could not completely destroy this organization."

"Ah? Director Li, don't you know? This matter should be recorded in Ye Qiong's file, right?"

"After the bureau was shut down, a lot of information was lost. I wonder if there is something hidden here."

Ning Shanhai smiled when he heard this, and then answered:
"As for how Ye Qiong escaped from Fengshen Cult, I don't know much. This is what Ye Qiong told me..."

Ning Shanhai paused for a while, as if he was recalling something, and then he continued after a while:

“Thanks to the help of the Bureau, I was able to escape from there.”

"If I remember correctly, the person who helped Ye Qiong escape from the Bureau of Investigation should be called..."

"Ge Yan?"

"Yes, it was him. Ye Qiong told me the same thing at the time. Without the help of the Investigation Bureau, how could an ordinary person like Ye Qiong escape from there? Don't you agree, Director Li?"

For now, everything Ning Shanhai said was almost the same as what was recorded in the archives.
But Li Qingtian always felt that something was wrong.
He knew Ge Yan's strength. Back then, he was only a purple-level card master. How did he manage to rescue Ye Qiong from the base camp of the Fengshen Cult?
He looked at Ning Shanhai, motioning him to continue.

"That's great, I'm glad you're okay."

As soon as Ye Qiong returned to the door of the orphanage, he was hugged tightly by the director Mo Wei. Ning Shanhai on the side wanted to say something, but after seeing such a heartwarming scene, he tactfully chose to shut up.

Mo Wei let go of her hand, then looked at Ge Yan who was standing beside her, and thanked him:

"Thank you. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid this child would..."

Facing the old dean's thanks, Ge Yan just smiled slightly and replied:
"It's just my job, old dean, don't take it to heart."

Then he touched Ye Qiong's head and continued:

"Since my mission has been completed, I should take my leave now. I won't bother you any more."

After saying this, he was about to turn around and leave, but suddenly he seemed to remember something and turned back to shout at Ye Qiong:
"I'll come back in two days. Before that, you should have a good rest."

Seeing this, Mo Wei quickly said:

"Chief Ge, aren't you going to stay for dinner?"

"No, I have official business to attend to."

After saying that, he turned around and chose to leave.

Mo Wei looked at Ge Yan's leaving back and said with a sigh:
"Chief Ge is such a good person."

Ye Qiong also looked over and said silently in his heart:

“He is indeed a good man now.”

After watching Ge Yan leave, Mo Wei took Ye Qiong and Ning Shanhai into the orphanage.

The little fat man came over, his expression slightly hesitant, and after hesitating for a long time, he finally spoke:

"Feel sorry."

When Ye Qiong heard this, he seemed very confused. It was not Ning Shanhai who planned for him to be kidnapped to the Fengshen Sect's base camp. Why was this little fat man apologizing?
So he answered as a matter of course:
"It's none of your business."

"No, if I had sent bodyguards to protect you."

"The result will be the same, and innocent people will be implicated for no reason."

Ye Qiong knew the situation at that time. She Ji and Zuo Wu were both purple-level card masters. Card masters of this level were not something that ordinary people could deal with.
So even if Ning Shanhai sent bodyguards to protect himself at that time, it would be of no avail.

But it was obvious that Ning Shanhai didn't think so.

Generally speaking, when unfortunate things happen to people, they will make two choices.

First, they attribute the causes of these misfortunes to others, believing that it is because of something they did that led to the current misfortune.

The second is to attribute all the causes of misfortune to oneself, and to wonder every day whether the results would be different if one had done the same thing at that time.

Obviously, Ning Shanhai is the second type of person. Even if these unfortunate things did not happen to him and had nothing to do with him, he would still stubbornly believe that it was because of him that Ye Qiong encountered these bad things.

To put it simply, this kind of person is a goody-goody, a pure altruist.

Seeing that Ning Shanhai was still struggling on this topic, he slapped his forehead with his hand knife.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

The little fat boy cried out in pain.

"I've already told you that it's none of your business, and I'm doing very well in the Fengshen Cult."

"what?"

"Thanks to their encouragement, I even awakened and became a card master."

When Ning Shanhai heard this, his face was full of disbelief.

A nine-year-old card master?

Who would believe this if I told them?
Moreover, if Ye Qiong had already become a card master, then why couldn't Ge Yan, a purple-level card master, detect it?

You know, in addition to fighting against evil forces, the mission of the Investigation Bureau is also to cultivate talents.

If Ye Qiong has really awakened and become a card master, then how could the Investigation Bureau remain unmoved?

Based on the above, Ning Shanhai did not believe Ye Qiong's words and just thought he was joking:

"Brother, how can you joke like that? Who would believe me if I told anyone that I'm a nine-year-old card master?"

"Yes, a nine-year-old card master. No one would believe it if I told them."

Ye Qiong silently added in his heart:
"It's unlikely that anyone would believe this statement made by a nine-year-old leader of the Fengshen Cult, right?"

Mo Wei prepared a welcoming banquet for Ye Qiong. The brothers in the living room had been preparing for a long time. When they saw him coming in, they shouted loudly:

"Welcome back, Brother Ye Qiong."

After hearing this voice, Ye Qiong couldn't help feeling a little dazed. Only then did he truly realize that he had really escaped from that haunted place. (End of this chapter)
