Card Disciple

Chapter 6 – Perception

Chapter 6 – Perception

Every now and then Chen Mu would recall that black card with crisscrossing silver lines like a starry sky in the desert inside his drawer, except that the thought of the 15 thousand odi price for a 3 star energy card immediately cooled down his heart. Every day, fiddling around with the mysterious and complicated card has become a habit, and currently, that piece of card was laid down on the table.

Chen Mu is really curious about that silver-lined black card, but he still endures, did not go purchase a 3 star energy card. He did so, making this decision after careful consideration. Besides, excluding the 3 star energy card factor, this decision is because he has issues with his own foundation.

His foundation is very poor, extremely poor, so poor that it is even inferior to the common elementary Card Creator. Even if he spends time on this card now, it will not a.s.sist his development much. The foundation is not firm, the more it goes up the more dangerous it will be, the further he goes the narrower will his road be. He didn’t know what the big deal is, but since he has lived as a street urchin when little, he would know about this common sense.

These days, he has been immersed in the pleasant sensation of his rapid improvement. All these years, he never stopped thinking, although because he didn’t know where to go to solve his problem that his progress is hindered. And when that stopper was unplugged later, that outburst of pleasant sensation flowing down, nothing could equal that.

He considered himself ready to try to manufacture one star magic card.



Magic card is the traditional specialty of TianYou Federation. The founder of the Principle of Cards, Lawson Borg, is the expert in magic card at his time. The elementary stage of the magic card is the virtual image, the advanced level is pseudo-matter. The effect of the elementary magic card is not that useful, they can only emit a few phantoms . These phantoms, although very lifelike, still just an image, incapable of harming a human being, and experienced people can distinguish with just a glance.

Advanced magic card’s might is quite terrifying. It is capable of stimulating the energy in an energy card, pa.s.sing it through a special combination of array, to imitate an object, either simulating high-end weapons, even constructing special weapons. This kind of magic card has been named the Magic Skill Card. Generally speaking, the magic card ordinary people speak of being the elementary magic card.

Making a magic card and energy card are very different. Energy card, as long as the Card Creator can comprehend the structure and with sufficient card drawing skill, can be made. However, magic card is different. It requires the Card Creator to possess certain perception ability. The so-called perception, is the ability to connect between the Card Creator and the Energy.

Energy and the properties of matter, these are exactly the core skills that a Card Creator is required to master.

This perception can be promoted by means of special method, this also is something a Card Creator is obliged to know. In the current Card Creator a.s.sessment, perception is one of the most important and also the most basic capabilities, it has extremely strict grade division.

Of course, perception is not an ability only a Card Creator need. Some profession, such as Card Refiner, that is a specialized profession of the card user, also have similar requirements of perception.

Actually, during the card system’s early days of development, the era of Lawson Borg, there is no Card Refiner profession. At that time, the Card Creator was regarded as someone who produced cards, and also the one most familiar with cards, knowing how to use and operate the cards with high proficiency. In this era, most card master both study the card making ability and card-using skills.

Until 300 years ago, at the era of Heiner Vincent, the amount of Card Creator, undergoing 200 years of development, the variety and quant.i.ty of the cards have reached an impressive number, this also caused more cards to be circulated beyond the Card Creator’s hand into the public. With the card system becoming more complex, Card Creator are required to learn more knowledge compared to those in the era of Lawson Borg, and thus the Card Creator starts to focus on research and study.

Also because of that, it gives rise to a new occupation – Card Refiner. They are professional in the usage of cards, because they all throw their energy into how to make the card surpa.s.s it’s limit, their usage of cards is more ferocious than the Card Creator. A person’s energy is limited, if while learning how to make cards, also learn how to be a Card Refiner, often they would be unable to get a good achievement in both areas. As times go by, both occupations become more and more different.

However, there are exceptions, such as Heiner Vincent. He is one of the genius Card Creator, but at the same time is also one of that era’s top ranking Card Refiner. He also became the last recorded Card Master.

In modern times, Card Creator and Card Refiner, in regards to tempering the perception, placed different emphasis. Card Creator mostly laid special emphasis on the energy perception, while Card Refiner incline on the energy control.

There are a lot of methods to train perception, but all shared a common characteristic, that is the need of a medium. Different medium will affect the properties of the perception. The properties of the perception will in turn affect the cards made by the Card Creator, and the nature of the card will directly affect the effect of the card used by the Card Refiner. Therefore, in many places, inside some school, Card Creator and Card Refiner often coexist. These Card Refiner uses their own school’s cards because they XiuXing the same perception method, thus they can bring out the card’s greatest power. Such as the ill.u.s.trious KuJi Temple 《苦寂寺》, they created various kinds of core cards that, if one did not come from KuJi Temple, it is practically impossible to use, even if someone can use they couldn’t bring out its full power.

Compared with the Card Creator, there are more Card Refiners. Card Creator is, without  doubt, very honourable, but the prerequisite is one have to at least be a senior-ranked and above. Compared with the Card Creator, Card Refiner strives to obtain more adaptability, becoming a private bodyguard, explorer, mercenaries…… in addition, Card Refiner adept at controlling Water Shuttle Card can comfortably and at will move about underwater, the best person to scout and prospecting the seabed. And Card Refiner expert at controlling the Probe Card, not only an essential staff in various regions’ public security, but also an essential for an exploration party.

There are wide varieties of cards, and thus the Card Refiner’s ability is also varied.
