When Ree Shil opened his eyes again, he found himself back in the Cube Card taverse.
"Uh..."
He glanced around at the surroundings and felt a bit embarrassed.
He had previously entered a buffer zone inside a private exchange room, so naturally, that was where he erged.
"Damn it, finally out."
The man nad Xiao Jie was lying on a folding bed and looking at him with dissatisfaction.
Since Ree Shil had brought the man into the private room, and then suddenly disappeared, it was proper that he couldn’t just leave either.
"But man, you were so fast, not even two days."
Fortunately, he hadn’t made him wait too long.
But such a short amount of ti suggested that the trip might not have been very successful.
"Mm, already handled it."
Ree Shil’s answer surprised him.
"Ah? Really?
Oh, you were close to the required score already, right?
I’m so envious of you, having so many points."
Xiao Jie suddenly realized.
"Right, I was just short by 5000 points."
Ree Shil admitted honestly.
"Oh, that’s not much... huh?!"
Xiao Jie stopped mid-sentence, stunned: "You earned 5000 points this trip?"
"Mm-hmm."
"Do you think the buffer zone is your personal ATM?"
"Pretty much, the Divine Deity card decks there are limited; most of them aren’t enough for to beat."
"Heh, listen to you brag."
Xiao Jie took his last sentence as a joke.
"You get in touch with them and confirm it."
Ree Shil opened his exchange list, showing that he had the requisite amount of points.
Wouldn’t want the other party to go back on their word after he made the exchange.
"Alright, let’s head out."
After exiting, Xiao Jie made a call to the seller on Ree Shil’s behalf.
It was still over the phone, and this ti the other party insisted on a face-to-face transaction.
So, the two waited on the cruise ship for half the day until an excited card player from the chanical Clan arrived.
After exchanging pleasantries, Ree Shil learned the other man’s na.
His na was a bit strange; he was called Sanjiao Han Shu.
He was an old man who was half-chanical, half-flesh and had three spider-like chanical legs.
After the transaction was completed, the old man happily treated them to the most expensive bottle of alcohol available there.
Then he rang a bell three tis to signal a private booking before finally leaving.
Ree Shil did not care for alcohol, so the bottle ended up with Xiao Jie.
Originally intending to go back and start card-making right away, Ree Shil decided not to when he noticed that Xiao Jie was still in high spirits.
While absentmindedly chatting with Xiao Jie, Ree Shil was secretly performing card fusion in his mind.
Similar to before, there was no grand disturbance during the fusion.
It was just that the card’s na changed. It went from Martial Monkey to False Saint.
And soon, the mission unfolded before his eyes.
[S-rank Task: "Becoming a Saint"]
[A saint may walk alone, but never in solitude]
[Please find companions and issue a challenge together]
[Collect A level or above Tang Mage: 0/1]
[Collect A level or above Marshal Pig: 0/1]
[Collect A level or above Sand Monk: 0/1]
[Collect A level or above White Horse Dragon: 0/1]
[Use only these 5 cards, including False Saint, to defeat Wind ssenger: 0/1]
[Upon completion of the task, False Saint will evolve]
"This task...
What kind of cards is it telling to collect?"
Beyond his complaints, Ree Shil was a little excited.
Looking at the nas of these cards, it was clear they were ant to be the Master and his three disciples.
But there were a few things that puzzled him.
"Wind ssenger, can’t be the one I know, right?
It says I can only use 5 cards, so what kind of card ga will that be.
4 1? 6 1?
It can’t be 9 1, how would I play that.
Or can I negotiate with the other party?"
Unlike other S-rank tasks, this one didn’t state whether the na of False Saint would change after completing the task.
Could it be that the outco might vary based on the process of the task?
As he pondered, Ree Shil felt a weight in his hand.
He discovered he was unwittingly holding an Instance Crystal.
[Instance Na: Truth-Seeking Trial]
[Instance Participants: 1 person]
[Suitable Level: ?]
[Ti Ratio: 1:1]
[Follower Cards: 0, Equipnt Cards: 0]
[Instance Tips: Only those who have reached The Path may enter]
When he saw the na of this instance, Ree Shil felt he understood why he had to challenge the Wind ssenger.
However, he was puzzled by "Only those who have reached The Path may enter".
In any case, it displayed "Not Usable", although his instance cooldown was OK.
Unlike when a level is insufficient, which reads "Level Not t".
In Ree Shil’s view, the most difficult part to resolve might be the "Only those who have reached The Path may enter".
Because even if the overall task difficulty is reduced due to the influence of [S-rank Expert], the entry requirent of the instance crystal remains unchanged and can’t be modified.
"Of course, if I really have to collect these four mysterious cards, I don’t know where to find them.
Could it be possible to find sothing in the Test Field world?"
While he was deep in thought, he quietly waited.
The arrival of the [S-rank Expert] was taking a bit longer this ti.
But finally, a beam of light shone down upon him.
"Huh? Am I drunk or have you beco a saint?"
"You’re drunk."
"Oh... oh..."
Xiao Jie, a little tipsy, didn’t notice anything amiss and started babbling again.
This ti, upon checking the task again, it indeed had changed.
[Collect A level or above Mage Card: 1/1]
[Collect A level or above Pig Character Card: 1/1]
[Collect A level or above Monk Character Card: 1/1]
[Collect A level or above Dragon Character Card: 1/1]
