Quick Travel: Card Destroyer

Chapter 350: Same Heart, Different Paths (Twenty-one)

The treasure hunter interrupted her and said, "Stop, I just want to ask, you made the cards, right?"

"it's me."

"you alone?"

"Yes."

"Oh, that's interesting," the treasure hunter suddenly had an unfathomable smile on his face, "According to what you said, you designed a completely new card pattern system, calculation method and writing style by yourself? That's really interesting. I didn't expect that the most talented person didn't come from the pattern design department, but the imaging department."

"What do you think of my idea, senior?" As soon as he came to the design ideas, Wei Youmeng seemed to have endless things to say, "The existing image pattern system in the city is too rigid. The one I designed is good at dynamic calculations and is very suitable for the field of image cards that encompasses a lot of information..."

The treasure hunter did not interrupt and listened patiently to her chattering on about the source of her inspiration and some of the little ideas she put into the design.

She kept talking until her mouth was dry and she had to stop to drink a sip of water. Then the treasure hunter told her: "In fact, several of us treasure hunters have noticed your work, but we don't agree among ourselves. From my personal point of view, your work will create a new field of imagery and lead the creation of card images to a new peak."

A look of excitement appeared on Wei Youmeng's face.

However, the latter sentence was like a bucket of cold water poured over her head, leaving her at a loss as to what to do: "But another group of people said that they hope to ban you completely before Dark Chaser spreads to a wider range."

"...Why?" Wei Youmeng felt bitter in his heart. Why was the Imaging Association so rigid?

"Don't be discouraged. I contacted you just to explain the whole story." The treasure hunter guessed that she would definitely not give up, so he explained seriously, "First of all, everyone recognizes your strength and talent, that's for sure. But have you ever thought about how difficult it would be to repair a card if it was damaged and had to be sent to a card repairer for repair?"

Wei Youmeng was speechless for a moment: "This..."

She really hadn't thought about the question of maintenance.

The treasure hunter continued, "For a repairman, simple grain damage is actually not a big deal. Although the system you designed is brand new, it is still based on the city's inherent system. Experienced repairmen will quickly adapt to your language. But for stealth repairs, the situation is not so good."

"Undercover maintenance?" Wei Youmeng opened her eyes wide in surprise. To be honest, she had not yet understood the various branches of the maintenance field.

The treasure hunter nodded: "Infiltration maintenance, as the name suggests, is to let the maintenance technician sneak into the card world, experience the plot firsthand, and find ways to reverse some problematic plot points to achieve the purpose of maintenance. Not long ago, we received an error report that when an apprentice maintenance technician was repairing a card, his consciousness was trapped in the card world by the loop structure and continued to cycle. If it weren't for her strong creation intention and forcibly taking over the control of the card, it might have collapsed directly. In order to protect the rights of maintenance technicians as much as possible, our Image Association and Game Association unanimously decided to include the loop structure in the banned list.

"The excellence of your texture system lies in its relative stability, but this is also the problem. The other side of stability is that it is difficult to reverse the plot point. So it is not us who are anxious, but the Maintenance Engineers Association."

"Well...I'm really sorry." Wei Youmeng didn't know what to say for a moment.

"By the way, the Maintenance Engineers Association has received news that the people chasing you are on the way," the treasure hunter added, "I heard that they are very concerned about the trainee maintenance engineer, and several veterans are waiting to snatch him away. After the lesson learned from the loop structure incident, everyone is very nervous."

what? !

Is it so direct? !
Wei Youmeng was shocked, his heart was pounding and his mind went blank.

It was the treasure hunter's kind reminder that helped her regain some of her ability to think: "Hurry up and pack your bags and get ready to run. You are a talent after all, and our association will protect you no matter what. If you leave now, someone will pick you up. Hang up!"

"Okay, okay!"

After the call, Wei Youmeng barely stood up, her limbs kept going weak, her hands kept shaking, and she could hardly button her clothes. When she changed her clothes just now, she realized that cold sweat had soaked the entire cloth on her back.

Fortunately, there is always a way out. Her talent has been recognized and her long-term efforts have not been in vain.

Script girl... I'm sorry, script girl! The boss is running away now!
With a heart full of apologies, she sent a brief message to the scriptwriter, took the "suitcase" card, and quickly left the dormitory. The campus has beautiful scenery, with a row of trees planted on both sides of the road, which are evergreen all year round.

There is a large area of ​​bare branches in the bushes, and a few bright goose yellow flowers bloom in the cold, telling people that spring has arrived.

It’s a pity that Wei Youmeng was in a hurry to travel and had no time to appreciate the beautiful scenery.

The day before she was just an ordinary student, the next day she was on the run.

Things are impermanent!
After walking out of the school gate, she stopped and looked around blankly.

Where to go?
Go home? Or go directly to Dongrong District to find the Image Association headquarters?

Just as she was at a loss, an energy shuttle stopped silently in front of her. The car window rolled down, and a pair of dark sunglasses came into view.

"Get in the car," the driver said, and it sounded familiar.

Even after getting on the energy shuttle, Wei Youmeng still couldn't figure it out.

After driving for a while, the driver said, "Switch to the autopilot mode, destination Imaging Association headquarters."

The electronic sound sounded.

[Do you need a reminder when passing through a service area? ]

"need."

【OK, received. 】

After giving the order, the driver took off his sunglasses, revealing a face that was exactly the same as in the video call.

"It's you——"

"Well, what's going on?" The treasure hunter waved his hand and said cheerfully, "I tell you, even if the Repairers Association doesn't want the gadget you developed, there are plenty of people who do."

Wei Youmeng was puzzled: "But I designed this pattern system to create card images."

This immediately amused the treasure hunter: "You! Alas, your thinking is still not broad enough. If the military can master the new system, the combat effectiveness of the city defense army can be increased several times!"

"But I don't want... I don't want my achievements to become a killing weapon." Wei Youmeng's heart sank, his head dropped, his face dejected.

"Murder?" The treasure hunter's smile never faded. "No, you are wrong. The city defense army never kills humans, but alien species!"

"Alien species? Do alien species really exist in the world?" What she just heard swept away the uneasiness in her heart and turned it into strong curiosity.

The treasure hunter thought for a moment and nodded heavily, "Yes, it exists. Isn't this the trading month? It's the day when the city communicates with the alien species outside."

"That doesn't sound good," the treasure hunter interrupted, relaxing Wei Youmeng's tense nerves. He leaned back in the comfortable chair and murmured, "Speaking of which, I don't quite understand why so many videos like to create some charming alien characters? But even if a cockroach is dressed up beautifully, it's still a cockroach!"

The stored manuscripts are mixed and updated.

Too much touching lately.
