Chapter 41: Legendary Cards

Chapter 41: Legendary Cards
It was still raining outside. Looking through the shop window, it was dark and chaotic. Occasionally, passers-by wearing raincoats and holding umbrellas would walk by, but none of them would even look into this strange card shop.

The puppy seemed to have had enough sleep and was strolling around. After obtaining the clerk's consent, Wu Rui took a bag of dog food and fed the dog.

She seems to like dogs very much.

Luo Xi was talking to the clerk.

They had been talking for more than half an hour and still wanted more.

The clerk's name is Hao Xiuwen.

In fact, this is his shop, and since he is the only one there, he is both a clerk and the boss.

"You are different from other people who recall memories that I have met." Hao Xiuwen poured Luo Xi a cup of tea.

"What's the difference?" Luo Xi asked casually.

"You are more normal than them."

"."

Luo Xi looked at the other person with a little surprise.

Can the word "normal" be applied to myself?

"To be honest, I don't have many friends. Although I look very kind, I actually have a bit of a weird temper. But I feel very comfortable chatting with you. I think we are the same kind of people." Hao Xiuwen was using a pen to simply sketch the outlines of a few cards on a piece of draft paper.

He was obviously good at drawing.

"What's more, your name is also Luo Xi. "The Player's World" is my favorite book, and its author is also named Luo Xi. Could you two be the same person?"

"Heh, just kidding."

"I graduated from an art college. I couldn't find a job after I graduated. Fortunately, my family had some money, and I was interested in this, so I opened this store to eat and wait for death. As a result, one day, I found that this world is fake. There is no yesterday, no tomorrow, only today."

"Haha, I was about to collapse. My parents were on a business trip. Normally, they would be back tomorrow, but you know, there is no tomorrow, so I will never see them unless I escape from this day of confinement. I have actually discovered this."

"What? How to escape?" Luo Xi asked.

Wu Rui, who was playing with the puppy over there, also pricked up her ears immediately.

"Yes, I know how to escape." Hao Xiuwen was a little proud and deliberately lowered his voice, but his excited expression betrayed his desire to show off.

"I have nothing to exchange for your information." Luo Xi waved his hand.

"No, that's for other people. Now, Luo Xi, you and I are friends. There's no need to be so snobbish to friends."

"Then tell me."

"Luo Xi, you know that I rely on this card opening point to serve as a card opening exchange among the Memory Collectors, so I have seen many cards and have insight into the true functions of some cards. This thing is the 'BUG' in the Day of Imprisonment, or in other words, it is an indispensable tool. You should know that different cards represent different functions, including creature entry, spells, props, and abilities."

"Among them, many cards have very special functions, such as the hiding place, which can open up a special space for the memory collector to hide in. There are also teleportation and flying cards. I once heard a customer say that there is a legendary card that can allow the memory collector to escape from the 'Day of Imprisonment'."

".Just heard about it."

"Yes, but according to the types and categories of cards that have appeared so far, as well as their functions and values, I believe that the legendary [Escape] card must exist, so as long as we find this card, we can escape from the Day of Imprisonment. So in essence, the Day of Imprisonment is a game, a card collection game. As long as we look at the world from the perspective of the player, we will reduce a lot of fear and despair. Every game is a new beginning."

Hao Xiuwen spoke with great joy and excitement, as if he had fallen into some kind of madness.

Luo Xi glanced at the book "Player's World" on the table.

The sentence the other party said just now, 'Look at the world from the player's perspective. Each cycle is a new beginning.' This is a description in the book. Luo Xi even remembered that it was on page 72, line 15.

To be honest, Luo Xi also agrees with some of the viewpoints in this book. He has read many books, but this one is still fresh in his memory. Of course, it is not because the author of the book has the same name as him, but because the values ​​and unique worldview embodied in this book are very interesting.

Correct.

In Luo Xi's opinion, it's very interesting.

"You have to know that speculation without facts is called fantasy." Luo Xi likes to make assumptions and speculations, but all speculations and assumptions are based on known conditions, just like building a building, there must be a foundation before there can be a superstructure. And speculation without facts and prerequisites is actually meaningless, and sometimes even leads to unexpected misleading.

"I have evidence." Hao Xiuwen immediately retorted. Maybe he felt that this was an area he was good at and was not used to someone contradicting him. Or maybe the legendary card was no longer just a guess, but a part of his spirit and hope.

So no one can question it.

He flipped his hand, and a card appeared between his fingers. He flicked his fingers lightly, and the card turned into a very strange ring.

It looks very thick, as if it is made of some thick, long beetle curled up. The ring face is an eyeball, very small, but you can tell it is an eyeball.

"Cat's eye?" Jewelry has a natural appeal to women. Wu Rui had already sat next to him holding the puppy, curiously looking at the ring that Hao Xiuwen had concretized using a card.

"Hehe, take another closer look." Hao Xiuwen's expression was somewhat playful.

So Wu Rui continued to get closer, and the next moment, she saw the "eyeball" on the ring suddenly twisted and looked at her.

At that moment, it really felt like I was being stared at by some unknown creature.

Wu Rui's hair stood up all over her body.

She immediately had a violent conditioned reflex and stepped back from the chair, almost falling. The puppy in her arms was also thrown out by inertia, but the little guy had good balance and fell to the ground, looking at Wu Rui in a daze.

I guess I couldn't understand why she suddenly got so startled.

"Alive?" Wu Rui calmed down at this time.

"Is this strange? You're a newcomer, right? Oh, let me explain. One indicator of newcomers in the group of Memory Collectors is whether or not they have cleared the level three times. But even if you have only cleared it once, you should have seen some strange and supernatural things."

Hao Xiuwen looked at Luo Xi at this time.

He found that Luo Xi's reaction was very good.

There was not the slightest surprise. On the contrary, there was a hint of curiosity in the other person's eyes.

"You were wearing a ring before. I guess rings are something special in the Day of Imprisonment, or in the card system."

"Yes, Luo Xi, you have a strong observation ability. Rings, in the card system of the Day of Imprisonment, represent 'discipline' and 'granting'. To put it bluntly, it is a prop that needs to follow its specific rules. There are many types of rings, and the conditions for wearing them are also different, but the 'abilities' they grant are similar, they are all 'card collection books'. Of course, the types of card collection books are different."

Hao Xiuwen put the strange ring that looked like an eyeball on his finger.

In an instant, his face twitched, as if he was suddenly in some pain, and Luo Xi saw clearly that the finger on which he was wearing the ring turned pale immediately.

Then he snapped his fingers.

bang~
A puff of smoke flashed by, and a strange yet exquisite card album appeared out of thin air in front of him.

Similar to the previous Spider card album, this card album's cover has more "K" elements, with strange raised flesh and blood, like a combination of blood vessels and muscles, and a huge eyeball.

The eyeball looked around with some malice.

Luo Xi looked at Hao Xiuwen at this time. What he had just said was whether the "legendary card" existed, and the other party took out this strange eyeball card book obviously to prove it.

"Luo Xi, look here." Hao Xiuwen opened both card albums and turned to the last few pages.

There are many card slots on the last few pages, all of which are empty. A three-digit number is engraved under each card slot.

And on the last page, there was a card slot numbered '000', which looked normal on the Spider card book, but on the Eyeball card book, underneath the last card slot, there was a faint line of blood-stained text.

"This is a card called 'Escape'"

That’s all, just these few words, and the words are like tadpoles, constantly twisting and moving, as if they would disappear at any time.

"Luo Xi, this is the evidence. As long as we can find card '000', we can escape from this fake world. That's why this card is called 'Escape'."
