My exclusive card pool

Chapter 52: Lying (Must read to save your life, please read it later)
Wang Xi lay on the clean hospital bed, speechless.

"This can have a bad ending..."

He rested his head on his arms and pouted.

This projection is lame. It had a good hand but played it badly.

But there's nothing we can do about it, that's how humans and machines work.

If human machines can turn the tide, what is the point of them?

Just give the projection MVP and let him win without any effort.

"But the 'retreat preview' wasn't in vain; I got another important hint. I can make decisions later and change the established trajectory of development."

Wang Xi sighed.

In the preview of the future, he still died.

Although he didn't die at the hands of the witches this time, the witches started a war prematurely because of saving him. In the end, even the Snow Queen herself appeared and the two sides fought...

Calvin, the beast, took advantage of the situation and reaped the benefits. He first killed the witches, then imprisoned the Snow Queen, and finally took complete control of the kingdom.

Because the curse had no solution, he turned into an ice sculpture and died.

"Let's order first."

Wang Xi shook his head and sat up.

I picked up my phone and took a look. It was already eight o'clock in the evening and I was growling with hunger.

I quickly opened the food ordering app and ordered takeout for two. Then I casually checked my work group.

Yu Zihan, Zhu Yuhe and other colleagues are having a dinner together at the moment, and they have posted many photos of delicious food and happy group photos.

Wang Xi smiled when he saw this.

Only seven hours had passed in the main world. To outsiders, it looked like he had simply slept another night in his hospital bed. In reality, he had spent two wonderful and fulfilling days in that fairytale world.

And the harvest was fruitful.

Besides the Wild Cards, there are also 3 legendary points from the Witches, and the cooldown has been reduced by 3 hours. I just don't know how many more points I need to get the first tier of "Legendary Chest".

"The Professional Hero Examination is in two weeks. I'll use this time to improve my skills and try to pass it in one go."

Wang Xi thought.

When he returned this time, he specifically gave instructions to the projection, asking it to "practice" step by step every day.

That is, you use various upgradeable cards once to gain experience, then rest and recover before starting the next round, repeating the cycle over and over again.

Apart from eating and sleeping, I also do some coaching.

Wang Xi wanted to see how much he would gain after synchronizing with the enemy next time...

About twenty minutes later.

A young nurse brought the takeaway for Wang Xi, but there was a flicker of vigilance between her brows.

Wang Xi could tell at a glance that it must be the nurse who had said bad things about him behind his back.

"Mr. Wang, your takeaway."

The nurse carefully placed the thermal bag on the bedside medicine cabinet, gave a reminder, and then turned and left without hesitation.

At this moment, the nurse heard a faint voice from behind:
"Miss Nurse, have you heard some rumors about me?"

"what……"

The young nurse stopped, turned around, smiled gently, and shook her head.

"No, why do you ask, Mr. Wang?"

"That's good." Wang Xi smiled and nodded. "By the way, Jimei, I seem to have held my urine while sleeping and it leaked in my pants. Could you be so kind as to give me a piece of bread? And help me change it, my hands and feet are not very convenient."

"..."

The young nurse stiffened.

She thought to herself, as expected, the patient in this ward is a complete loser.

"No... sorry, I have an emergency surgery that I need to rush over to help. I'll ask the nurses on my team to help you later."

After saying that, she turned around and hurried out of the ward without waiting for a response.

Bang!
The door is closed.

Wang Xi shrugged upon seeing this.

Click...

At this moment, he heard the mechanical sound of gears turning from his heart.

"You lied."

Experience Points +1

Wang Xi casually added this experience to the "Randall Body Building Method" and immediately fell into deep thought.

——"Pinocchio's Heart"

This unique black card is indeed as described. You can gain experience points just by lying.

Is it true?
Click...

The sound of mechanical gears turning came from my chest.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Xi's face changed suddenly.

pain!
Severe heart pain!
He groaned, his whole body trembling as he hunched over and curled up on the hospital bed. Beads of cold sweat streamed down his forehead, and he couldn't help but gasp for breath.

A long time passed.

The colic gradually subsided.

"Is this the price? If you lie, you'll suffer intense heartache..."

Wang Xi was soaked in sweat and thought to himself.

'You must not use it frequently in a short period of time, otherwise you will die from the pain!'

Moreover, he had a vague premonition.

The cost of this card is probably not that simple.

But Wang Xi still believed that it was a priceless treasure. If used well, it would surely lead to rapid growth.

...

...

That night, after eating and drinking, Wang Xi took advantage of the moonlight to try out a new exercise card called "Moonlight Breathing Method".

Once this wild card was activated, he instantly entered a strange state. The cultivation method that originally belonged to Wolf Steward Igor was mastered by him, as if it were an initiation.

Wang Xi seemed to have transformed into a demonic wolf. Following his instinct, he sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, bathing in the moonlight, his nostrils slightly flared. His inhales and exhales were sometimes short, sometimes long, and his chest vibrated with them.

A certain energy floating in the air was inhaled into his body, spreading through his blood vessels to his limbs and bones, subtly transforming his body.

Hours passed.

It was not until midnight that Wang Xi finished his first breathing exercise.

He opened his eyes.

A faint light emanated from his eyes and body, as bright as moonlight. Although it was fleeting, Wang Xi noticed it.

“I’ve gotten stronger…”

Wang Xi clenched his fist, secretly surprised.

'The magnitude is far greater than that of the Randall Bodybuilding Method.'

What surprised him even more was that there was magic in the environment of the main world!

Originally, Wang Xi was mentally prepared to do useless work. After all, according to the explanation on the universal card, the principle of "Moonlight Breathing" is to transform oneself by absorbing magic power.

"It seems that the fairytale world and the labyrinth disasters in the main world are indeed connected..."

Wang Xi seemed to be thinking about something.

As he came into closer contact with the witches, he thought of the disaster that occurred in the Rust Belt not long ago. Perhaps the name "Sugar Witch" was not a coincidence.

...

…Two days passed in a flash.

During the boring days in the hospital, Wang Xi spent his time eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, preparing for exams and practicing.

Around four o'clock in the afternoon of that day, as soon as he had cooled down, he lay down on the hospital bed and closed his eyes.

Another distraction.

The person had already taken over the projection and appeared in the open space in front of the candy house.

Wang Xi looked around and saw only a few sugar mushroom girls playing and fighting among the flowers, while Pinocchio was lying on his back on the lawn and sleeping soundly.

He immediately checked his mind.

See how the boosting situation is.

I don’t know, I’m scared.

"He's truly a gold medal power leveler..."

"Randall's Body Building Method (Technique Card/White 2-Star): 180/200"

Moonlight Breathing Technique (Technique Card/Blue 1-Star): 10/400

Bloody Knight (Skill Card/Dark Green 1-Star): 30/300

Offensive skill cards like "Water Blade," "Water Arrow," "Tidal Blade," and "Blueberry Icing" each grant experience points between 20 and 30.

Even support decks like Lockpicking Mastery, Drinker and Heartbeat have increased to 10-20.

In just twelve and a half days, each card has made some progress, especially the "Randall Body Building Method" that has been given special attention, which is about to be upgraded to a star!
The only thing that confused Wang Xi was.

God knows where the projection learned to pick locks...

You're not going to practice on Bev's wardrobe and bedroom door, are you?
Wang Xi quickly checked the "Projection Review" again, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that there were some boxes for storing miscellaneous items behind the candy house. Although they were made of cookies, they also had locks.

So the projector would go there every day and pry it open and close, close and pry it open again. At first, Bev would bring the sugar mushroom girls to watch, but later she found it boring and ignored it.

Before returning, Wang Xi specifically told Pinocchio and Bev that he felt he was about to fall ill, so if he became indifferent and did something strange, they should not be surprised.

Thanks to this, the witch and Pinocchio did not doubt too much about the projection's indifference to people, and just sighed occasionally.

In addition, Wang Xi also gave Pinocchio one thing, which was to give him a few gold coins and ask him to buy a donkey from Daphneel and send it to the Gulu settlement.

He had not forgotten this promise, and even though he knew it clearly, Bev would not blame the goblins for it.

"The projection is really hardworking."

Wang Xi sighed.

So thank you for showing your gratitude.

I'll go to Daphneel for a bath later and let the bathhouse maid use her warm hands to reward myself.

...

...

In the afternoon, Daphneel.

Wang Xi walked out of a small bathhouse, stretched his arms, and breathed a sigh of relief. The middle-aged proprietress, dressed in revealing clothes, smiled and said goodbye, "I hope you will come again next time."

Pinocchio, who had been waiting outside for half a day, came over and asked curiously:

"Kayi, is it really that comfortable?"

"You don't understand the happiness of adults."

Wang Xi smacked his lips, savoring the taste slightly.

According to the "Gospel of Poseidon" written by a suave scholar named Wang, there are seven elegant things that men must try.

It is:

Playing the flute and listening to music, arranging flowers and admiring lanterns, discussing philosophy, playing chess, taking off armor and returning to the fields, watching the tide and climbing mountains, drinking wine and burning incense...

This time it is one of them, "Discussing Mysteries and Taoism".

As for what mysteries they talked about and what principles they discussed, there is no need to explain them to outsiders.

In short, it's wonderful.

Wang Xi glanced at Pinocchio and said seriously:

"You are still young, stop asking questions."

"Oh." Pinocchio said disappointedly. "So where are we going next?"

"Adventurer's Guild."

Wang Xi answered casually.

He touched the parchment package at his waist.

There lies the Basilisk Heart.

In order to keep it fresh, he also asked Bev to seal it with candy magic to prevent it from rotting and being difficult to report.

Of course, it doesn’t matter if it breaks.

Because Wang Xi didn't care whether the commission could be completed or not, he just needed this excuse to meet Minister Ando and Minter Dick.

Given the future seen in the "Retirement Preview", Dick will definitely recognize his identity and start hunting him down.

So Wang Xi planned to break the deadlock from here.

Soon.

The two came to the Adventurer's Guild.

Without any hesitation, he went straight up to the second floor after entering and found the old recorder named Brown.

"Hmm? Lord Kay!"

The old man adjusted his glasses, looked up with a look of surprise, and then smiled:
"Have you completed the commission?"

"Of course." Wang Xi placed the parchment package and the commission scroll on the table. "For this thing, I went through a life-or-death experience and almost died in the Magic Forest."

"As expected of Lord Kay, the Scarlet Wizard, you are the only one who can complete this difficult commission!"

The old man chuckled and opened the package to check it.

After confirming that everything was correct, he nodded in satisfaction.

"We will take a 5% commission based on the commission. Lord Gai will receive 95 gold coins and a silver sword..."

"and many more."

At this time, Wang Xi pressed the package and interrupted the old recorder's words.

Brown looked up, puzzled.

"I only want half the reward, but you have to do me a favor..." Wang Xi said calmly. "Please help me contact the client, and I will personally give him this heart."

As he said this, he grinned.

"You know what future there is in being an adventurer. I'd like to take this opportunity to get to know the Master of the Mint."
