Traveling to another world, I made a two-dimensional girl into a card

"So when two minions fight, they cause damage to each other. Therefore, the final answer to this question should be: the follower 2-3 dies, while the follower 4-5 retains 3 health points and becomes 4-3 on the field." Stanley announced the final answer.

Fang Qingyun was stunned when he heard this. It turned out that all the things he had thought about before were wrong. The final answer was the one he calculated at the beginning. On the one hand, this allowed Fang Qingyun to confirm the convergence of the rules of the two worlds, but it also gave him a new question.

If the calculation method is just this kind of simple math, why is it so difficult for others to calculate? If the concept is clear, the actual calculation is only 5-2, 3 health and 4 attack. As long as you know the size, it will be fine. Even if this thing is adapted into a size comparison and thrown to elementary school students, it won’t be so difficult to calculate, right?

Could it be that people in this world are not good at math?

Immediately after the teacher finished his explanation, he gave a few more questions of the same type. Fang Qingyun naturally just glanced at them, but he was also paying attention to the situations of the people around him.

Through observation, about 10% of the students in the class can do it, but they need to do some calculations. Another 40% of the students calculate for a long time and only stop writing before the teacher explains, and there is no guarantee that they can get it right. The remaining half of the students cannot do such questions at all, and some even start to do it without any pretending.

Chapter 4.5, The repulsion of truth?

But the question is, if the mathematics in this world is so bad...then how did this world develop?

Mathematics can be said to be the beginning of science. Without mathematics, it would be impossible to measure the extent of objects, and natural society would not be able to develop.

If mathematics is so bad, then the so-called magic industry and various gadgets in this world should not be able to develop. How could such a prosperous scene appear?

It's like the foundation of a house collapsed, but the house is still standing on the ground. It is logically impossible.

Thinking of this, Fang Qingyun suddenly had a good idea to test it, but for someone like him who has a late stage of social phobia when it comes to chatting, it was a little difficult for him. After some psychological preparation, he patted a bored student next to him who he didn't know, lowered his voice and asked quietly: "Hey, buddy, did you understand the first question the teacher just taught?"

The man was startled by the slap, and like a frightened owl, he straightened up a bit. He turned around and saw that it was a student he didn't know. He immediately relaxed: "Dude, you scared me to death, I thought it was a teacher."

"I'm sorry," Fang Qingyun apologized first. Even if he had done nothing wrong, he had to show some respect so that it would be easier for the following communication. After he started talking to people, his social anxiety disappeared. He thought about his words and asked after careful consideration, "Brother, I just want to ask, did you understand the first question the teacher just taught?"

"I didn't understand." After the man recovered, he honestly admitted that he was a poor speaker: "Who can understand this? It's so complicated and abstract, how can I understand it?"

...I always feel like I'm being included in the scolding.

What he said didn't sound false. Fang Qingyun specifically identified his target when asking the question. The man next to him was the 50% person who was too lazy to pretend after giving up. He probably really didn't understand when he said he didn't understand.

"Then..." Fang Qingyun knew what to ask: "Brother, do you know what five plus three equals?"

This question avoids previously used answers and minimizes the possibility of the answer being guessed. If mathematics is really a weak point in this world, then this simple question should directly confuse the other party.

In fact, the poor student was indeed confused by the question, but he was confused in a different way: "Dude... don't make me laugh, you can't figure out that five plus three equals eight? Did the teacher make you stupid?"

"Oh, it's okay, it's okay. My brain suddenly went blank just now." Fang Qingyun perfunctorily answered the question and then returned to his own little world.

Mathematical ability is normal, but card calculations are completely incompetent... This contradictory situation happened to one person... This...

A perturbative theory of truth?

Fang Qingyun thought of a theory he had seen before. The content of this theory was rather bizarre, even a bit magical, saying that the universe would conceal its own observation of the truth. Any understanding of the truth would be distorted after being exposed to it.

To put it simply, they are usually very smart, but become stupid when they encounter something, which is very similar to the current situation.

Normally, mathematics is enough to cope with work, but once you come into contact with cards, your whole reaction to this aspect will be slow, and even greatly disturbed, resulting in a situation where you appear particularly "stupid". Based on this situation, Fang Qingyun gave this theory a more appropriate name: the repulsion of truth.

That means... an outsider like me will not be disturbed by the repulsive force? Or... I have been disturbed, but I don't know it?

Putting aside these miscellaneous self-awareness issues that can be considered later, Fang Qingyun wanted to explore the usefulness of his cheating finger before the class was over. This cheating finger couldn't just be a tutorial for novices, right? It had to have some special abilities.

Based on the way this card appeared... could it be that my cheat code is to copy the opponent's card?

Just like a priest, playing with minds, copying opponent's cards, and then using opponent's cards to defeat opponent, making opponent angry to the point of vomiting blood. Anyway, Fang Qingyun has encountered more than once a priest who could have been killed but still insisted on filling the opponent with minions, parading, taunting, and sending emoticons. At that time, I felt that their nickname "shepherd dog" was really right.

There are two types of people I hate the most in my life. The first type is the winner who sends emojis, and the second type is the loser who doesn't let me send emojis.

Well, I am double-standard in this regard.

After completing a wave of double standards, Fang Qingyun tried to give the notebook a command to print out the card. Because it was the exploratory stage, he first tried voice input and gently read out his thoughts to the notebook.

The effect seemed to be good. In front of Fang Qingyun, without anyone touching it, the notebook flipped back two pages, and a line of words appeared: The current memory fragments are 0. Then he drew a big circle on the 0 in "The current memory fragments are 0" with a red pen, for fear that Fang Qingyun might not see it.

Well, the pastor’s dream was shattered. Printing other people’s cards requires a currency called “memory fragments”.

Fang Qingyun did not give up and silently asked again, "Is there any other way to get the cards?"

A line of words appeared on the notebook, which directly poured cold water on Fang Qingyun:

[Poor people can’t print cards]

You are my golden finger after all, why scold me for being unrealistic? It seems that the card must be printed with tokens such as memory fragments. Fang Qingyun thought to himself: Is there any way to get memory fragments?

The notebook then displays:

【Complete some tasks】

Didn't he say anything?... Fang Qingyun continued to ask, but no matter how hard he tried, the answer he got was always: Dream on it tonight.

This made Fang Qingyun so anxious that he scratched his head and face, as if he was seeing a delicious meal but couldn't eat it. But then he thought: Dreaming is the way to get cards, right?

According to this reasoning, if you complete the events in your dream, you can get memory fragments, and then use the memory fragments to get cards? If so, it can also explain why he always talks about dreams. No matter what, Fang Qingyun plans to give it a try tonight.

On second thought, he could actually continue to explore the functions of the notebook in a different way. Asking questions here would only touch upon the details. This thing was not like the main divine space that could be easily wiped out. He would not be dragged out and shot if he asked directly. However, out of prudence, Fang Qingyun still carefully touched upon the details: "Well... if I ask you directly about the functions, you won't drag me out and shoot me, right?"

The notebook was still. Fang Qingyun didn't know if this was a sign of silence. After about three or four seconds, a line of words appeared on the notebook again: [No, but if you ask me this, I must answer that it is possible.]

All right then, Fang Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the notebook still had some sense of humor. He rubbed his shoulder with his neck as a cover, looked around, and after making sure that no one was observing him, he focused his attention on the notebook: "Then... briefly introduce yourself?"

[As for my origins... You wouldn't understand even if I told you. You just need to know that I won't harm you, and that I am your golden finger.]

[As for functions, it provides card printing services, time travel services, collection services, resurrection services, and corpse collection services]

The notebook flipped through the pages and turned to the first page. There was a picture on the first page. It looked like a blank table, or like a simple default PPT frame, with a small box for the title and a large box for the content.

[This is the crossing service area. I know what you are thinking. This is the place you want to go in your dreams at night. I will only tell you where it is before you go there, so now this place is blank.]

[You can get a lot of things in the place you travel through, including but not limited to "memory fragments" as currency, achievements with special effects, rare treasures, rare cards and card pictures. If you operate properly, you can even get a card that can be added to the deck immediately without any investment by talking nonsense.]

"Talking nonsense... KP, should I apply for a talking dice?" Fang Qingyun tried his best to conceal the expression on his face so as not to attract other people's attention, and silently made a joke with a hint of sarcasm.

[Yes, of course, you can also use physical persuasion and physical persuasion, so I suggest you throw away your shame and self-esteem and work hard to become a shameless person]

Physical sleeping clothes are okay, Fang Qingyun covered his forehead, other people were talking about marriage in high school, he had never even held hands in high school, it was a bit difficult to expect him to do something so exciting from the beginning.

[You just saw the card printing service area, which is where you use memory fragments to synthesize cards. However, synthesizing cards also requires "card images", which is the card face. To put it simply, it is the card's vertical drawing. By synthesizing the vertical drawing and memory fragments together, you can get a usable card.]

"Wait, wait, I haven't finished asking my question. What are those treasures and achievements?" Fang Qingyun quickly stopped the introduction of the notebook, but based on what he knew so far, the card image required for this card printing function was probably a rather troublesome point.

[Treasure can be understood as an extra deck, or an extra special skill. The advantage is that it can obtain unfair preferential treatment in a fair duel, and it complies with the rules of this world. As for the achievement, wait until you come into contact with it, and you will know what a good thing it is at that time.]

"Do people in this world have treasures? If not, will it attract other people's attention if I use the treasure?" Fang Qingyun glanced at the other people who started chatting next to him and continued to ask.

[Yes, and your use of cards and treasures will attract other people's attention, so please remember the principle of making a fortune in silence]

Okay, it seems that before he can explain the source of his treasure, Fang Qingyun decided not to be so aggressive. If he is dragged into an alley and beaten with a club, it would be a waste of time.

Chapter 5, Preparation

[There is also a point to note about the card printing service area. The card images of high-combat target can be used to make high-cost cards. It is also possible to make low-cost cards, but low-combat target can only make low-cost cards. Do you understand what I mean? ]

"That is to say, unless I play a fast-attack deck, I have to take the risk of obtaining a card image of a high-combat target if I want to get a high-cost card?" Fang Qingyun felt bitter at the corners of his mouth. His scalp, which had been twitching with excitement because of getting the golden finger, also calmed down. He rubbed his temple and only felt the malice of the notebook.

[Correct answer, but don’t worry, collecting card images is not difficult, you just need to “meet” them.] These words appeared on the notebook.

"A meeting in the physical sense, right?" Fang Qingyun asked, supporting his face.

[Not really, just take a look from a distance and you’ll be fine. And every time you collect five cards, the collection service will give you an extra exciting reward! They won’t eat your cards.]

Perhaps it was because of synaesthesia, Fang Qingyun seemed to feel the notebook's...emotions through the wild cursive writing of the last few words?

[And don’t worry even if you die, the special resurrection service can let you get up again and return to the battlefield, but the number of times is limited. If you die too many times, then I can’t do anything... So cherish your life, and don’t learn from some of the hosts in the past, who pretended to be Doctor Strange in order to seduce a queen, and their arms and legs were broken into pieces.]

Fang Qingyun nodded slightly. This was the best news he had ever heard. One has to know that not everyone is the protagonist of an infinite flow. For a fragile college student like him, who has nothing left except a bit of pure stupidity, dying in the time travel is a common occurrence. Fang Qingyun himself did not think that he had any special abilities beyond his peers. If he wanted to survive, he could only rely on the so-called "persecution phobia" to be invulnerable.

All in all, this ability of the notebook gave Fang Qingyun some room to operate. At least he didn't have to worry about encountering a sudden attack that would kill him inexplicably.

If Fang Qingyun does something stupid again like the previous host did, even if the notebook wants to save him, he will probably be dead. So it is better to be cautious when it comes to relationships...

Fang Qingyun couldn't imagine himself changing from a realistic personality to a people-pleasing personality, but according to the notebook, falling in love was a "shortcut", but Fang Qingyun himself was a relatively responsible person, and it was somewhat difficult for him to do such a thing as pulling up his pants and ignoring others.

If you expect him to flatter someone for a card, he can refuse now when he is in a comfortable position. But if he really encounters a situation where a penny makes him a hero, he will have to do it even if he has to hold his nose.

There is no such thing as simple in the adult world.

[But don't worry too much, because cards have quality. From low to high, they are divided into white, green, blue, purple, orange, and red. The higher the quality, the better the effect. It also means that the owner of this card has stronger power and unique personality. There will be no situation where a useless psychopath is rated as red quality, so don't worry.]

That's okay, Fang Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief. He originally thought that he had to hold his nose and make friends with those who were good-for-nothing but lucky. Now it seems that those who are relatively rare are more or less virtuous. Fang Qingyun only needs to get along with those who he can get along with. He himself should be considered a neutral person who knows how to protect himself, but he does not reject people doing good things.

You said that if someone is blackmailed for helping someone, Fang Qingyun will help to testify if he is nearby, but if you ask him to take the initiative to help someone, it is the limit of his kindness for him to just watch from the side. Of course, he has a contemptuous attitude towards those who do evil. People can be without courage, but they cannot be without integrity. Fang Qingyun's understanding of integrity is self-esteem. He is naturally not in the same boat with those who take the initiative to do evil and harm others.

[The last part is the corpse collection service. In simple terms, if you really can’t be saved, your body and ashes will be salvaged to some extent and left behind, at least as a lesson for those who come after you. Do you want to see it? ]

"Let me make it clear first, I have no objection to seeing the corpse, but I may not be able to accept it now, so you just need to tell me orally, no need for pictures." Fang Qingyun pinched his fingers. Due to his mental preparation and nervousness, he rubbed his fingers, feeling the difficult texture of the skin rubbing against each other, and tried to calm himself down as much as possible.

He didn't want to be embarrassed by the ghost picture. If he couldn't hold back and made a sound in class, it would be embarrassing, but exposing the existence of the notebook would be a big deal.

[It’s okay. I’ll just describe it in words without any pictures. After all, the previous host had so many ways to die, some of which were worthy of winning the Darwin Award… For example, the one who flirted with the queen practiced an innocent smile in front of the mirror for a long time, but in the end he died five times and his life was over. When he was rescued, the ground was covered with red ice.]

"Why do I feel like the person you're describing is wrong?" Fang Qingyun, who had watched some anime, connected the innocent smile, ice cubes, and the queen together: "That woman couldn't be Esdeath, right? Isn't she a general?"

[It doesn't matter. She just has a queen-like temperament. Then the host failed to suppress the gun when approaching the Esdeath you mentioned, and turned into broken ice.]

According to the further description in the notebook, Fang Qingyun realized what kind of monsters his previous hosts were: a silly girl who thought she had traveled to the romantic era of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, but ended up being eaten; a man who thought he had become a gun god after playing FPS games, but ended up shooting himself when he put his head into the muzzle of the gun the first time he fired.

The most outrageous one, which also made Fang Qingyun unable to hold back, was a very suicidal thing: he may have read too many pornographic books and thought he had obtained a pornographic system. Feeling good about himself, he went to sleep with a woman without saying a word. The key point was that the woman was a character he couldn't afford to offend...

Later, his head was stuck with a spear and stood on the ground. Because he could be resurrected, there were several such spears. If you didn't know, you would think they were copied and pasted.

The study time in class was quickly spent with Fang Qingyun and his notebook chatting. After the class was over, Fang Qingyun put away the notebook and glanced at today's date.

Thanks to the same seven-day week timekeeping method, Fang Qingyun learned from the people around him that today was Wednesday, and there were fewer classes. After class, he tactfully declined the invitations of several classmates to go out and play, and returned to his single dormitory alone, citing concern for the final exams.

Those students were very excited even though they were clearly rejected. After all, nobles have always been arrogant and domineering. They don't even bother to show any expression when they hear the words of commoners. Fang Qingyun, the noble, actually told them the reason very clearly, thanked them for their kindness, and expressed his apology for not being able to go, which made them feel respected.

On the other hand, Fang Qingyun now feels like the old man in Warhammer 3 who deceives people everywhere, holding a grimoire and muttering to himself. Although others want a drop of blood of the bear god, he wants memory fragments.

But it doesn’t matter. This sudden idea gave Fang Qingyun inspiration, and Fang Qingyun decided to call his notebook: Magic Book of Destiny.

I hope that I won’t encounter any Mickey Mouse-like cards in the future, which would cause Disney’s legal department to break the void, catch him and send him directly to court. That would be too much of a failure in my time travel.

At this time, Fang Qingyun was thinking about whether he should make some preparations in advance, in case the Magic Scripture rolled a big failure for him and caused him to die directly in his dream. But when he thought about what he had learned from the Magic Scripture before, he would not really die, Fang Qingyun reluctantly put his mind at ease and waited quietly for the arrival of night.

It was only afternoon now, and waiting was not his style. Fang Qingyun thought about what the teacher said. It seemed that the card aspect was a main subject in the other world? Then the original owner should have textbooks on this aspect, right? Fang Qingyun still had a lot of questions...

For example, how do people from another world make cards without the help of the Grimoire of Fate?

After searching under the bed for a while, Fang Qingyun finally found the almost new textbook on the bedside table. It seemed that the original owner had a disdainful attitude towards the main course, or planned to cram before the exam to get through. Fang Qingyun opened the new textbook and glanced through the table of contents. At the front were some theories and card-playing skills, which were nothing important to Fang Qingyun.

What Fang Qingyun mainly needs to look at is the rules part in the middle and the card deck part at the back. These two parts are of utmost importance. Although there are some matches between the memories of the previous life and the rules of this world, if he completely copies the experience of the original world, he might be tricked in some small place.

First of all, the formal name for playing cards in this world is "duel", and the duel mainly emphasizes fairness and justice. The duel is mainly carried out on the blue topaz table, and the referee is the elf that comes with the blue topaz table. Generally speaking, no violations will occur.

Cards are divided into many categories, the three most common categories are: follower cards, spell cards, and weapon cards.

The follower card is like a sealed scroll. Playing a follower card will unseal the follower. The follower will attack according to your commands, and the follower also has various special effects. Therefore, as long as the follower does not die, he can attack multiple times and is undoubtedly the main force on the battlefield.

Spell cards are cards that release a one-time spell. Their advantage is that they take effect quickly after being played, and they do not need to wait a turn before launching an attack like minions.

Weapon cards are follower cards in another sense. After using them, your duelist will be equipped with the weapon sealed by that weapon card. Weapon cards have attack power and durability. Each attack will lose a little durability. The effect of weapon cards is to allow your duelist to have attack power and be able to attack during his turn.

Of course, a duelist with a weapon only has a weapon, which means that he can cause damage by using the weapon during his turn, but when it is the opponent's turn, the weapon will be put down again, so the opponent's minions can attack at will without worrying about being counterattacked by the duelist equipped with a weapon during his turn.

After all, it’s the opponent’s turn when they can attack at will, and your hero’s attack power is given by the weapon card, not yours.

Chapter 5.5: Studying the Rules

The blue topaz table where the duel is going on is divided into two plates by a dividing line, representing one's own plate and the enemy's plate. All facilities on both plates are the same to ensure the greatest possible fairness.

The part closest to the dividing line is the battlefield area. When you spend mana to play a minion, the minion will arrive at the battlefield and rest during this round. When the next round comes, the minions can attack.

Each duelist's battlefield can accommodate up to seven minions. Once the minions are played and land on the field, their positions cannot be adjusted. Therefore, you must carefully consider the position of each minion when it falls on the field, so as to avoid being eliminated by some special card solutions.

For example, in the previous life, there was a hunter spell card called Crushing Wall, which had the effect of destroying the enemy's leftmost and rightmost minions. If you didn't pay attention to your position, it would be easy for the Crushing Wall to take away your two most powerful minions at once, leading to a disastrous defeat.

Behind the battlefield area is the hero that symbolizes the duelist himself. Take the ten-cost thirty-card duel as an example. The hero has thirty health points. When the health point is emptied, it means that the duelist corresponding to this hero is defeated.

Of course, when involved in a duel, the duelist is a high-risk profession. After all, they have to withstand the bombardment of various spells and the attacks of followers. When the blood volume is reduced, the duelist will be under certain mental pressure, and nosebleeds and incontinence are common. The existence of heroes is to cover up the duelist's embarrassment from the people around them. Therefore, in order to make themselves less embarrassed, the duelist urgently needs a "spokesperson" to take the damage on their behalf.

After all, the audience doesn’t want to see the two duelists, after a tense and exciting exchange and game, collapse in their own half of the court and gasp for breath like two old dogs who had just fought.

Therefore, the existence of heroes as "spokespersons" is quite necessary. This is a fig leaf to maintain the so-called "elegance" of duelists, and it is also one of the capitals for duelists to show off to each other. After all, heroes also reflect the strength of duelists in a certain way. Therefore, it is also a fashion in the upper class to compare the handsomeness of heroes with each other.

Next to the hero is a graveyard area where dead minions, damaged weapons, and used spell cards are placed. This design is purely for the convenience of checking what cards have been used and has no practical significance in the absence of cards to revive dead minions.

On the side of the blue topaz table is the location of the decks of the duelists. When both sides have assembled a deck of cards, they will be shuffled and placed into the deck by the referee. The first and second players are decided by tossing a coin. The first player can draw three cards, and as compensation, the second player can draw an extra card after drawing three cards, and get a "lucky coin" by the way.

Lucky Coin is a spell card with zero cost. It allows you to gain some temporary mana in this round, thus giving the second duelist an important counterattack opportunity.
