Chapter 8 The first time
You Chu went home with the package. Before he had time to dismantle it, Luo Qing called after a phone call.
"Have you received the stuff?" Luo Qing asked straight to the point.
"I just received it, but I haven't had time to unpack it." You Chu asked, "What's in the package?"
"It was the card making formula I asked you to find yesterday. This is a card making formula that is more popular among freshmen in our school. The package is covered with materials." Luo Qing said, "In fact, it's nothing, it's just some basic materials.
I have something to do here, so you can get familiar with the recipe yourself first. If I am soon here, I should be able to finish my work tomorrow. Then I will take the time to teach you."
Luo Qing was quite concerned about the prospective junior brother she found this time.
One reason is that with the conditions of You Chu, she believes that the great masters from major universities will be willing to rush to ask for it. She is trying to win high-quality students for her mentors and laboratories in advance.
The second is that since she became a tutor under her tutor, she has almost become the tutor's personal secretary. She has left everything to her instructor with all kinds of things. The tutor said a word to her and the secretary broke her legs. In just one year of enrollment, she has become the number one tool person in the laboratory.
It is common to get busy with tasks and stay up all night, and I feel like I'm going to break down.
So Luo Qing had long been thinking about finding a new tool to share the pressure for her.
If this wave can successfully pull You Chu to the laboratory, then this junior brother whom he recruited himself must be her.
In that case, I will leave the work and errands arranged by the tutor to the junior brother in the future, wouldn’t it be fun?
Of course, she would not treat her junior brother unfairly. Since she is her person, she will definitely be responsible to the end.
You Chu didn't know what she was thinking. Now he just thought that the senior sister's long legs were so easy to hold, fragrant and soft.
Luo Qing seemed to be a little busy. After a few brief explanations, she quickly hung up the phone and said she would contact her soon.
You Chu returned to the room, opened the package, and soon saw the recipe sent by Luo Qing.
The materials required for the formula are also sent with the package. The materials are divided into parts in transparent bags, each with unknown hair, light golden dust, ink-colored beads, etc.
You Chu's predecessor has not tried refining cards. His predecessor has saved money to buy some cheap materials in the past and tried to get some publicly available basic formula refining cards online, but every attempt so far has failed.
That is also the main reason why the predecessor has not yet been able to break through to become a summoning magician.
Moreover, the recipes published online are generally made of the lowest quality cards, and the difficulty of refining is also entry-level. Even those cannot be refined smoothly. It can only be said that the predecessor may not be very talented in card making.
The path to summoning magicians really depends on talent, and some things are really hard to make up for by hard work.
This is like the martial arts in fantasy fairy tale novels. Some people are more talented and can understand them; but some are also useless in qualifications and have to find the right way.
If you are too anxious, you can do anything except card making.
So You Chu was actually not confident about how much he could learn from the recipe he gave to Luo Qing.
Surprisingly, he had just touched this recipe and a prompt popped up in front of him.
"It takes 40 potential points to identify the card making formula.
Do you use potential points to learn?”
At the same time, there are two buttons "Yes" and "No" below.
You Chu's eyelids twitched.
It turns out that the system is so powerful? Is there any function of formula packs?
Before he was electrocuted, he had not had time to open this game recommended by his friend Amway, who was a friend of life and death, so he was not clear about the game's mechanism and settings. However, he had guessed the role of the "potential points" mentioned here.
Cards are all refined by summoners based on card making formulas, but the higher the quality cards, the harder they are to refine.
It is logical that only the summoning wizard with the most extensive experience and top skills can be mastered by high-level formulas. However, with the plug-in of the learning function of the game system, You Chu can theoretically master any level of card making formulas in one second, which is a veritable super genius!
...The premise is that the potential points are in place.
It can be imagined that the higher the level of card making formula, the more potential points you need to consume in learning. If you want to rely on the system to help you master the top-level formula in the future, the potential points you need to consume may also be astronomical.
But no matter what, as long as the potential is in place, this is a very powerful plug-in.
You Chu was instantly energetic. It was obvious that earlier today he was complaining that the game system had nothing to do. A bunch of messy functions did not work except krypton gold, but now he only has one thing to say to the system father:
The sparrow pecked the heifer - the bird eats awesome!
So the problem now lies in the acquisition of this "potential points".
There is also a note below the "Yes" button in front of You Chu, which shows "Potential Points Remaining: 0".
Although it clearly stated that it was 0, You Chu still couldn't help but try to click the "Yes" button.
Sure enough, a line of bright red warnings popped up quickly: "There are 0 points left in the potential points, and I can't learn. Please go to the mall to recharge."
Downstream Chu was a little depressed.
After this annoying game informed him that "the recharge system is operating normally", he of course studied this function. Unfortunately, the system said it is operating normally, but it is just a decoration, so he cannot really recharge money.
At least I was afraid I had no hope before major online payment platforms in my previous life expanded their business in another world.
But there is no way out. You Chu clicked on the plus sign after "Potential Points: 0", and the system actually gave him another way to obtain potential points in addition to krypton gold.
【Reputation Value: 981】
"Note: The reputation value can be obtained through the achievements made by the player in the game. The reputation value can be redeemed into potential points at a ratio of 10:1."
Reputation value is a setting that many online games have, but this sentence "obtained through achievements" is a little vague. You Chu didn't understand where his reputation value came from.
However, there seems to be a record of the source of income from reputation value. You Chu immediately clicked on the record and checked it.
Reputation value +21, source: Mo Shiyu.
Reputation value +18, source: You Xiangyang.
Can parents also contribute their reputation?
You Chu continued to look forward and found that there were dozens of similar records, from all kinds of people. There were from senior sister Luo Qing, from Captain Shao Changsheng from the previous action team, and many names he didn't know.
You Chu checked the source list of each reputation and income and the specific time. After thinking about it, he seemed to guess how it came about.
First, he shipped "Swordsman Huiyue" at the ceremony, broke free from the limit of the cage and killed the leader, and rescued everyone present at the critical moment. The thugs, hostages and even the leader themselves contributed a wave of reputation to You Chu.
Then they were taken out by the Public Security Bureau's operation team, and the ins and outs of the matter in the church were explained during the evidence collection process, and the audience contributed another wave of reputation.
Later, Luo Qing inserted it and saw that his "Swordsman Moonlight" was an epic magic spirit card. He also speculated that his magic spirit was an extremely rare natal magic spirit nurtured from the heart of the summoning magician. He once again shocked the people present to the melon-eating people, and his reputation continued to rise.
And it was observed that even at this moment, his reputation value actually increased from time to time. For example, when he was staring at the panel, his reputation value jumped from 981 just now to 1002.
Perhaps there were members of the Public Security Bureau who participated in the previous assault or the rescued hostages returned and mentioned You Chu's incident to others, invisibly continuing to provide him with new reputation values.
In other words, as long as You Chu can continue to achieve amazing achievements and even break the cognition of others, he can continue to gain reputation.
Then the earned reputation value can be redeemed into potential points, and the potential points can be used to quickly learn card making formulas.
So it seems that the path of development is not easy to go. If it is not high-profile, there will be no reputation value. Without reputation value, there will be no potential, and without potential, there will be no strength...
You Chu shook his head.
Life is really hard. A low-key person like him has to become stronger by pretending to be strong...
After thinking about it, You Chu directly converted all the reputation value that had just increased to one thousand into potential points.
【Reputation Value: 2】
【Potential Points: 100】
You Chu picked up the card making recipe again and directly selected the [Study] button.
【Potential Points: 60】
He fully grasped the consumption of 40 potential points, the operating steps and experiences recorded in the formula in the blink of an eye.
Last second he was still at a loss when he looked at the bag of messy materials. At this moment, he seemed to suddenly see through, feeling like a burst of enlightenment, and his blocked thoughts instantly poured out like rivers.
You Chu immediately picked up the materials and formula and came to his card making room.
It was said to be a card making room, but it was actually just a grocery room at home. You Chu's predecessor had specially cleaned up the grocery room in order to learn how to make cards and purchased some second-hand card making equipment at a low price. Although it was a bit simple, it could be used at least.
You Chu activated the precious card making machine he bought at a low price, and the machine started with a rumbling sound like a miniature boiler.
According to the formula steps that the system has been engraved in his mind, he skillfully wrote the code and input parameters. A simple card refining pattern array was quickly outputted on the card making machine's refining dish, and the light blue fluorescence flowed like a liquid along the pattern of the pattern array.
This is just preparation.
Next, You Chu strictly followed the formula. First, sprinkle the light gold powder called "arcane dust" in the bag evenly, add "ritual demon's hair", seal and refine the dish, release the mental power of the summoner to activate the material to react, and add "dark attribute beads" in five minutes...
The mental power of the summoning artist is the only energy that can promote the card making process. At least with the current technology, no other energy can be replaced.
In addition, the output of mental power during the refining process also requires the summoning magician to adjust according to actual conditions, which is a task that requires both experience and skills.
Half an hour later, the entire work was finally completed.
The reaction was over and all the steps were completed. The bellows-like rumble of the second-hand card machine gradually became smaller. The refining dish automatically bounced away with a "click" sound, and a burst of black smoke was released from it first.
It's done!
You Chu rubbed his hands impatiently.
This is his veritable first time, so he will naturally look forward to something he can produce.
The first time, I was a little excited, a little looking forward, and a little uneasy.
Even if you strictly follow the recipe, it is actually uncertain what card you will make in the end.
Card making formula is the crystallization of wisdom summarized by summoners of all generations through countless experiments. The predecessors often summarized the list of cards that could be made with the same formula.
So a recipe actually feels like a card pool with a limited range. After people refine the recipe every time they are equivalent to drawing cards, and they will draw various possible cards from a certain range.
In addition, the card making process is often accompanied by expensive material costs, so every card making process by summoners is very exciting.
You Chu held his breath and looked at the refining dish that was automatically opened after refining.
The moonlight standing beside him also followed suit, and he looked like his master.
Chapter completed!
