Folk Card Maker: Starting from Painted Skin

#47 - It's better to die.

The security guard beside him was even more anxious than Zhang Jingtian.

He had also bought lottery tickets before, and as expected, he didn't win anything.

But looking at Zhang Jingtian's expression, it didn't seem like he hadn't won.

So, could it be that he really won the jackpot?

"Zhang Jingtian, what's with that expression? Don't tell me you actually won the first prize!"

Even the mechanical Heroic Spirit showed a strong curiosity.

Zhang Jingtian shook his head:

"What are you thinking? If I really won a big prize, I would have gone crazy by now!"

He did win a prize.

It's just that the prize made him feel somewhat distant from his own life.

"Let me see!" The security guard finally couldn't help it. He came behind Zhang Jingtian and focused his gaze on the lottery ticket that had already been scratched open.

【Three-Star Casino Experience Ticket x1】.

The Three-Star Casino is a subsidiary of the Star Lottery.

Moreover, it also houses the world's largest black market.

If you want some rare materials or top-tier equipment cards, this is definitely the place to go.

However, this casino is not a place that ordinary people can go to.

Winning money inside is a small matter; being able to safely take it away is the big issue.

Paradise will not allow any monsters from the Heavenly Disaster Legion to exist, but it will also not harm any of Paradise's guests.

Because everyone has paid.

Therefore, Zhang Jingtian felt that going to such a place in his current state was no different from a lamb entering a tiger's den.

"Does this experience ticket include my entrance ticket to Paradise?"

Zhang Jingtian asked the mechanical Heroic Spirit in front of him.

The other party shook his head: "Of course not. However, Mr. Zhang can purchase one directly. Recently, our Card Maker Association has a discount for ordinary members, only 1.2 million points per ticket."

Zhang Jingtian rolled his eyes.

Only?

That's a bit too flattering.

"Then forget it." Zhang Jingtian was very clear-headed. Not only did he not have the money to buy a ticket, but the travel expenses were also beyond his means.

This world is not like Earth, where you can just take a plane with a visa to go abroad.

Here, if you want to go abroad, you can only take transportation certified by the Transportation Bureau, because it will ensure that you are protected in case of an attack by the Heavenly Disaster Legion.

Otherwise, you could be hijacked on the road at any moment.

As for the price, it was definitely not something Zhang Jingtian could afford.

"Forget it, I'll keep it for now. Maybe it will be useful in the future!"

Zhang Jingtian accepted the ticket with a one-year validity period.

He felt that when he became a Platinum Card Maker and could evolve cards, he could go to Paradise for a stroll.

However, if he were to say this out loud, the security guard next to him would probably be infuriated.

In a year, he could only advance from Silver Two-Star to Three-Star at most, but Zhang Jingtian was thinking about breaking through to Platinum directly.

You must know that countless people are stuck in Silver for their entire lives.

Afterward, Zhang Jingtian also authenticated his equipment card.

After the mechanical Heroic Spirit looked at it, he smiled at Zhang Jingtian:

"A very beautiful piece of equipment, and it has a, um, very terrifying aura."

Seeming to sense the danger, the mechanical Heroic Spirit did not examine the Human Skin Drum too closely.

After the authentication, he returned the equipment card to Zhang Jingtian.

Zhang Jingtian was finally able to leave the Card Maker Association.

He glanced at the security guard still standing in the courtyard and asked, "Aren't you leaving?"

But in the end, he didn't say much and turned to leave.

A layer of gray covered the security guard's eyes.

He carried a pile of documents, summoned a vehicle card, and left.

As usual, his colleagues turned a blind eye to his efforts. They already felt that all of this was what the security guard should do.

The security guard sighed, picked up a newspaper, and saw that their Public Security Bureau was also heavily promoting this high school league.

Moreover, the top leader of the Ninth District Education Bureau would also come to observe this league.

"At that time, Zhang Jingtian will definitely become even more famous!"

The security guard saw that this competition would be broadcast live on television.

Currently, ordinary people do not know about Zhang Jingtian's achievements.

But after the live broadcast, it is estimated that many people will see how amazing Zhang Jingtian is, and he will become the next Card Maker star.

Thinking of this, the security guard felt sour in his heart.

After getting off work, a message suddenly popped up on the security guard's phone:

【I'm so useless, I'm just a piece of trash!】

The security guard frowned, thinking, isn't this his true portrayal?

When did he add this netizen?

The security guard, who should have been vigilant, inexplicably lowered his guard at this time.

He did not delve into the extra friend in his address book and even clicked on the unfamiliar link sent by the other party.

It was a group chat, and the name of the group chat was 【Loser Alliance】.

Inside were a group of failures just like him.

【Newcomer, tell us how useless you really are!】

The security guard realized that the other party was hinting at him. He took a deep breath and began to tell his experience.

Soon, the people in the group began to sigh:

【Oh my god, so useless.】

【How can there be such a useless person! Your colleagues treat you like a slave!】

【People younger than you are surpassing you. Maybe you will be his subordinate in the future. It's sad to think about it!】

【The fate of people like us is the same, to be used as dung.】

【Yes, we might as well die!】

The security guard's heart suddenly moved, and he also began to type:

【Might as well die!】

Then, the entire screen of his phone was filled with this sentence.

Immediately afterward, that sentence really came out of his phone and kept ringing in the security guard's ears.

"Might as well die!"

Even passersby who saw the security guard at this time could not help but spit and say.

When he saw a dog at the corner, it shouted:

"Trash, might as well die!"

He walked into a store, and when he passed the mirror inside, he saw his face.

It was densely covered with words:

【Might as well die!】

Even the chandelier on the ceiling popped out a word after each flicker: "Might as well die!"

… …

After Zhang Jingtian returned to school, he confirmed the time of the high school league with the school and went home.

As Teacher Ma said, the current teaching content is of little significance to him.

So Zhang Jingtian would rather take the time to cut grass.

That's right, it was using the Human Skin Drum's skills on the outskirts of the 囍 Lake to attract low-level monsters, and then waiting for Ying Ning and Hua Pi to wipe them out in one fell swoop.

This process not only improved Zhang Jingtian's mental strength but also deepened his bond with the two Heroic Spirits. Hua Pi and Ying Ning also reached level 9 and level 8 respectively.

Most importantly, low-quality materials can also be exchanged for a lot of money.
