Divine Card Creator Chapter 354 - The Furious Wardens!

Chapter 354: The Furious Wardens!

The World of Darkness and Shadows.
The wardens were trying to agree on the black lightning settings.
They were sure about one thing.
Although they had the authority to change the rules!
Although they were the wardens of the World of Darkness and Shadows!
Ultimately…
They were merely the followers of the big shots from the World of Darkness and Shadows.
Yes.
This world belonged to the sleeping big shots!
Because they could not be distracted from cultivation, they recruited wardens with good management skills to manage this world. They granted them the rights to live on eternally.
Therefore, it was rare that this group of wardens could live on eternally in this world although they were not seven-stars.
They were very sure about what they should do.
“A limit has to be imposed on the black lightning!”
“How many times is good?”
“Ten times a day then…”
“Is it necessary? The problem only occurs after more than 100 strikes.”
“It’s different. The black lightning will become exhausted and drained after striking too many times. You didn’t see the black lightning which appeared near Zhong Chu earlier. That lightning struck straight down and at a uniform velocity. Nothing was left of the target. The color of the lightning was also jet black. As the number of times increased, the lightning strike became weaker and weaker. The color faded tremendously and it didn’t look that black anymore. It looked somewhat transparent…”
One of the wardens in charge of the Zhong Chu’s community explained.
Obviously…
There was a moment when the black lightning had been drained. A hundred times a day had far exceeded its upper limit!
“Ten times won’t do as well!”
One of the wardens objected. “If anyone discovers this, it will become our greatest loophole!”
“How is that possible!?”
The other warden sneered. “I have 50 years of management experience in combat areas.”
“I also have 30 years of management experience in gun turrets,” that warden said, refusing to concede defeat.
Oh.
It turned out that these were two very experienced combat area wardens…
The rest of them suddenly understood.
Obviously, combat area management was beyond the knowledge of these ordinary wardens.
However…
The combat area management warden glanced at that gun turret warden skeptically. “I remember that you have hotel management experience, right? Did you really manage gun turrets before?!”
“Of course.”
That warden swore confidently, “In what ways are the hotel rooms near schools different?!”
Shush!
There was suddenly silence in the surroundings.
Near the schools…
That was really…
Wait a minute.
They needed real combat area experience here!
The wardens were immediately speechless. They simply disregarded this warden and began to discuss the settings of the black lightning. Finally, they decided on a flexible system and a warning threshold.
Well…
No one would dare to mess around in this way then.
…
Right then…
The First Academy’s assessment was still ongoing.
However…
People were shocked to discover that Zhong Chu’s results were not improving… Even though Zhong Chu was still holding the first place now, it was a matter of time when someone would surpass him.
For example—
Zhao Yunshan, who had been accumulating points as much as he could.
“For the sake of the Sword Card Master Association’s honor!”
Zhao Yunshan’s expression was solemn.
He promised Master that he would let everyone know how formidable a Sword Card Master was!
Hence…
He told his father to buy another killer organization.
Well…
These two organizations took turns to send him ‘points’ and he was progressing rapidly.
Another example was—
Gao Tianlang, who was guarding a certain corner and waiting for people to appear.
“For the sake of my sister!”
Gao Tianlang hollered in his heart.
He quietly swore that he had to give his sister a glorious wedding! Therefore, he had to become stronger! He had to beat Lu Yan in the future!
Hence…
He stood at the entrance of the community and mocked at everyone, writing down bold, huge words.
“Damn you.”
…
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Zhao Yunshan and Gao Tianlang’s points suddenly began to increase tremendously.
The improvement speed record of the school was broken again. People watched on as Zhao Yunshan and Gao Tianlang’s points began to chase that of Zhong Chu…
Oh.
It was not only them.
Even the scores of the fourth and fifth places were beginning to increase tremendously!
Obviously…
Zhong Chu’s score had made them realize some ‘magical’ ways.
Although they did not guess it right previously, they had figured out what was going on after problems occurred in the entire World of Darkness and Shadows and the obvious latency earlier on. If they could not guess it, they would be fools.
Hence…
Everyone began to study the rules of the community!
All of them were geniuses!
Aside from cultivation, they scored full marks in basic education!
Therefore…
When this group of top students focused on the World of Darkness and Shadows which had been constructed many years ago, some terrifying things happened.
Some people made use of the silent rules and began to research transparent sonic wave attacks…
Some people simply examined the dialog boxes and began to research the art of languages. They then tried to drown the other parties with dialog boxes…
Some people began to study the borders of the community and alternated between the border places, challenging the black lightning crazily…
Some people focused their attention on Shadow Transformation and began to research Schrödinger’s X theorem…
…
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Some people’s score also began to shoot up.
Some students who were not in the top fifth or sixth rankings had entered the top ten, and some students not in the top hundred had dashed to the top twenty.
Everyone was researching the rules!
Everyone was researching the loopholes!
Hence…
The assessment that initially wanted to test the survival baseline of the students had radically changed.
In the end…
It turned into a match to challenging the rules of the World of Darkness and Shadows…
The teachers were dumbstruck.
W-what is happening?
Therefore, they got someone to enter the World of Darkness and Shadows to investigate the situation. After they received the findings, they did not come to their senses for a long time.
T-this will do as well?!
“These damned score slaves.”
Some teachers were enraged.
This was too much!
Scores…
Were scores really that important?!
However, the cheers and expressions of the audience, cultivators and various major associations at the square of The First Academy told them something —
Scores were really very important!
“Did they flout the rules?”
“No. We decided on the World of Darkness and Shadows as the venue because we wanted to assess another aspect — Environment adaptability! In terms of this, the students have met the mark,” one of the teachers said helplessly.
Yes.
Environment adaptability!
This was also a silent objective of this assessment.
They made these students go to an unfamiliar and real environment for the assessment because they wanted to test their ability to adapt to a new environment and prepare them for stepping into society in the future.
However…
These guys had adapted a little too quickly?!
“What should we do?”
“Don’t be anxious. Let’s wait and see.”
“Sure.”
The teachers decided to wait.
However…
They could wait but not the wardens of the community.
Just as the new rules of the black lightning had been fixed, they discovered various kinds of strange mistakes and problems occurring.
For example…
Some shadows had been smashed to death by dialog boxes that they shouted.
Yes.
They didn’t see wrong.
According to sources, those people had just left their doorstep. They then were shocked and screamed instinctively. Afterward, a huge and heavy dialog box ‘Ah—’ appeared above their heads…
Afterward…
Crash!
The dialog box smashed downwards and they died immediately.
What did this mean???
All the wardens were baffled. They had never seen such a situation. Since when could the dialog boxes in the World of Darkness and Shadow smash people?
Just the thought of it was terrifying!
Also…
The black lightning in certain areas had begun to deplete again…
Additionally, some communities said that they cannot sense the attacks anymore…
“I have some problems on my side too.”
“Me too.”
The wardens complained listlessly.
Many communities nearby were facing problems.
“What is happening?”
“I don’t know.”
“This has never happened before!”
The wardens had grave expressions.
They had managed the World of Darkness and Shadows for many years. Why would that many problems occur all of a sudden?! Perhaps some invisible forces were targeting them?
At this moment, they finally realized the seriousness of the problem.
“What should we do?”
“Should we report this to the seniors?”
“No need, let’s investigate first. I want to know exactly who is meddling with us! Furthermore, their appearance is not without value…”
Very soon…
The wardens found out the truth.
For the wardens who had the rights to control and amend the rules, once they targeted these mysterious cultivators, their background could not be hidden.
Students…
The assessment…
The wardens received a lot of information.
And most importantly about the Shadow Combat Suit!
The students were not qualified to enter their world. They entered via this special method. This was what they were most concerned about!
“We have to get that combat suit!”
“Haha, they like to make use of the rules, right? We’ll let them make full use of them then!”
…
Very soon…
The community mission board was refreshed.
A strange and mysterious news popped out, shocking everyone.
It described in detail what the Shadow Combat Suit looked like and put up a mission to purchase the attire. Each suit could fetch a high price of 10,000 Shadow Coins!
Yes.
10,000 Shadow Coins!
It was ten times more than the assassination reward for Jiang Feng!
This was a shocking number!
This caused an uproar in all the communities. They thought carefully and recalled that they seemed to have seen a similar outfit before… Some people remembered the targets of their assassinations.
Hence…
Everyone began to hunt them down with all their might!
Afterward, the students were shocked and terrified to discover that the beginner six-star and intermediate six-star Assassins had suddenly all become peak six-star Assassins!
Their combat abilities were at the top!
Countless students were defeated!
What did a six-star peak mean?
That was a limit!
Because of the horrifying threshold for a seven-star, many people could only remain at peak six-star!
After they attained peak six-star, their abilities continued to improve, improve and improve. Although they could not break through to seven-star, they were many times more powerful than an ordinary six-star!
And now…
These guys were making a move.
Shush!
Shush!
One by one, the students were killed.
Some students were even captured due to the great gap in their abilities.
However, these guys were puzzled as to why the clothing would disappear the moment the students died. The students also self-destructed without any hesitation and left the World of Darkness and Shadows!
“”There’s a problem with the clothing.”
“Use some special methods to check if we can make them stay behind.”
“They need them to remove them, right?”
“Who will remove it willingly?”
“Uh—”
“Why don’t we ask the clubhouse?”
The big shots were silent.
They vaguely remembered the manifesto of a clubhouse. ‘We are professionals in removing clothes’.
Well…
Perhaps they could do something?
Hence…
They captured some students and went to a certain clubhouse. Unfortunately, just as those students removed their clothings under the meticulous service of the clubhouse, both the clothing and the person disappeared simultaneously…
True enough, there was something fishy about this Shadow Combat Suit!
Therefore…
Helpless, they could only capture the people and then research them together with the clothing.
“Capture them first and talk later!”
“Understood.”
…
Very soon…
Some cultivators who did not manage to escape in time had been captured by the community.
To prevent them from committing suicide and escaping, their limbs had been tied up by special shadow chains. Even their mouths were stuffed with a ball.
“Oo… Oo…”
Dialog boxes popped out above the heads of a few people.
“Hehe.”
The wardens looked at them smilingly.
These low-level shadows could only converse with dialog boxes. If they were to divulge some information during the conversation, that would be great.
However…
They did not know that the students were communicating via the Shadow Combat Suit.
“What do we do now?”
“Commit suicide and go back?”
“This won’t do. Our powers are restrained and something is stuffed in our mouths. We can’t commit suicide at all.”
“What should we do then?”
“Wait for someone to rescue us… or perhaps, they will disconnect us from this place?”
“That won’t work! If the real world is disconnected, all our efforts will be futile! We won’t be able to remember things that happened in this place too!”
Everyone was afraid.
Their shadows were ultimately the ones who came here!
They could only advance when their shadows returned to their bodies and integrated!
And…
Memory!
The shadows here existed as a form of identity. If they were awakened in real life, this place would be forcefully interrupted and dissipated. They would not gain anything!
The experience would be gone!
“Don’t worry.”
One of the students said, “They won’t dare kill us. As long as the school finds out the truth, those few guys ranked at the top will come and save us!”
The students thought about it and that seemed to be a plausible outcome.
Well…
Everyone was a six-star but those top ranking students were far more powerful than them!
Besides…
If they could not save them, they could also come and kill them!
“Will the school discover this?”
Someone was worried.
“Don’t worry.
“Do you think the school is stupid?
“The fact that we’re here means that someone is secretly observing and monitoring us. Have you forgotten that senior at the beginning? The school will come to our rescue very soon!” a student said confidently.
“It makes sense.”
The students thought so too.
However…
After a very long time.
One by one, the students were captured and still, they did not receive any news from the school. This clearly meant that the school was unaware of the situation!
The students looked at that student unanimously.
“Cough.”
That student coughed. “Perhaps they’re slow to react. Don’t worry. The school will send someone over very soon. Take a closer look, none of the geniuses are around!”
The students glanced around and that was really the case.
“Look.”
That student instantly heaved a sigh of relief. “A truly powerful figure, such as Gao Tianlang, won’t not be captured…”
Shush!
The doors of the room in the community opened.
A figure was thrown inside like a dead dog.
Well…
The students took a glance and were instantly stupefied and paled. “Gao Tianlang!”
The students were shocked.
Shush!
The few students instinctively glanced at that student. “May I ask, you are…”
“Wu Hongfei,” that student said with embarrassment.
The students were speechless.
Oh.
To hell with it.
The one who organized the Lunar Shadow legacy…
According to the rumors, he had really bad luck!
According to sources, the Lunar Shadow legacy that he organized collapsed and the big shots of the school personally took action. Unexpectedly, he actually participated in the graduation season with them!
The students immediately felt their hearts turn cold.
“Actually, you guys don’t need to worry.”
Wu Hongfei sighed. “Gao Tianlang is not considered that strong amongst the top ten. Besides students like Zhao Yunshan who succeeded with money, he may not be able to beat anyone else!”
Shush!
The room door opened again.
One by one, the shadows were dumped in like dead dogs. Everyone took a glance. Oh, they were the ones ranked third, fourth and fifth…
Besides Zhao Yunshan, who was ranked second, everyone had been captured!
The students were speechless.
Wu Hongfei was speechless.
Damn!
Are these guys that useless?!
…
