“The first auction item, a piece of Gold Material, ‘Fallen Foul Gold’, an excellent material for forging Gold Cards. The starting bid is 5 million…”
“80 million, sold!”
“The second auction item is a brand-new ‘P2 Type Explosive Bear Mechanical City Boiler1 produced by Hagis Armament Factory. It can be used for mining, as an energy core for small towns and military camps. It is a must-have quality product for pioneers. The starting bid is 30 million…”
“Bidding from box no. 17 is 430 million, sold!”
“The third gold-level thunder secret skill, ‘Thunderstorm Code’…”
Bidding millions and billions casually, Leonard Churchill simply couldn’t compete.
No wonder there was a VIP2 threshold.
Looking at the auction items, he treated it as a learning experience.
He also realized a large part of the auction’s goods were related to pioneering equipment and mechanical devices that were generally used by large power entities.
Seeing this situation, it seemed like some people from the Federation’s upper echelons also intended to encourage inhabitants of the Sinless City to go and pioneer the Old Continent, hence they auctioned some of these great items.
One by one, the goods were sold.
Many were rare items not produced in the Sinless City.
Those attending the auction, all hidden big shots, were fiercely competing over these items, raising prices at each turn.
Leonard Churchill also saw many items that struck his interest.
But there was absolutely no chance for him to participate in the bidding.
Although he was considered wealthy among ordinary people, if not counting relics and disaster objects, his wealth absolutely paled in comparison to the hidden tycoons of Sinless City.
Finally, the item Leonard Churchill was waiting for arrived.
The auctioneer on stage introduced, “This item is called a ‘Cursed Spade 4’. I believe everyone has heard of this ‘non-gold gold’ profession card. This is the only card below gold that can condense bloody fragments… Let’s not say more, the starting bid is 5 million.”
A cracked card was then showcased by a card-holding girl.
Leonard Churchill looked over.
“Cursed Spade 4 (damaged)”
Quality: Shining Silver
Description: Semi-finished Profession Card; After integrating materials with not less than Silver in quality, a finished Beast Walker- Spade 4 Profession Card can be obtained; The integration requires the Card Disciple to have Strength and Physique attributes no less than 9, Curse Power Value greater than 4000, and Dark Affinity no less than 40; The higher the quality of material, the stricter the requirements for successful integration; Known mutation probability is 100%.
The fusion requirements for Card Disciples are indeed strict.
A single attribute reaching 9 is already considered top-tier among Card Disciples.
But this card requires both Strength and Physique to be over 9, along with thresholds for Curse Power and Dark Affinity, which would exclude 99.9% of the population.
The Enlightenment Display only reveals information within the scope of human cognition.
It doesn’t show why there’s a 100% mutation rate.
Clearly, there’s some hidden information that people aren’t aware of.
Leonard Churchill had a thought and quietly put on the clown mask.
With the enhancement of the +2 cognition aura, his view was now different.
An additional line appeared on the Enlightenment: “This is a Profession Card forged according to the original template. It has violent enhancements that the majority of humans can’t handle. This Profession Card has some of the divine material of the great demon, Osir, which allows the Curse Card Master to transform and obtain ‘Bloodline Reversion Beast Form’. The subject’s bloodline will also be altered by the demon beast’s bloodline to obtain savage growth. The higher the tier of the main bloodline material, the larger the enhancement. If one cannot possess extraordinary resistance equivalent to the requirements of the Bloodline Reversion, then your human bloodline will be permanently tainted, mutating into a monster.”
“Actually, it’s the original template?”
Leonard Churchill was astonished in an instant.
Most Card Masters don’t know what this term means, but he just happened to read the explanation of this term in the “Card Masters Encyclopedia”.
“Original template” is a general term for the forging method of the first batch of profession cards when the curse card system was created.
It was a cruel epoch of fierce battles between humans and demon gods. To survive, card masters at that time had to wield a very powerful extraordinary power. Therefore, the profession cards at that time were extremely violent, they would resort to any means to enhance their combat power.
Usually, it also carried vast risks.
For instance, this “Spade 4” directly uses the demon beast’s bloodline to modify oneself, thus achieving combat power far beyond the same tier.
But in the later chaotic epoch, nobody knew what happened, but the gods and demons fell.
Humans no longer needed such overpowering powers to deal with crises.
As humans adapted to the more comfortable environment, their physique naturally weakened over time.
With time, humans became weaker and weaker.
Generations of profession card templates have been adapted, reducing some of the more ferocious traits.
Gradually, they have morphed into the profession card system that humans can now generally withstand.
So, the current Curse Card Master system is actually quite inferior to that of the ancient era.
Simply put, humans nowadays are too weak to handle the ferocious gains brought by the original templates.
Upon reading this, Leonard Churchill was suddenly enlightened, thinking to himself, “No wonder merging always results in 100% mutation. It turns out it directly modifies human bloodlines.”
Now I see, it’s not a cursed card at all.
This original template card is a genuinely good thing.
It was the uniqueness of such an original template that a gleaming silver profession card was retained.
A regular Beast Walker’s transformation increases two to three times, and those who fuse with this card will undergo a reversion to the beast form, gaining a multiple-fold increase.
This also explains why Baron was so strong.
But the downside is that this boost is too fierce, the current human body can’t handle it, leading to uncontrollable mutations.
“What a good card…”
Upon reading this, Leonard Churchill’s interest in the Spade 4 card grew even stronger.
So far, he hasn’t seen a profession card more suitable for his situation.
With the cognitive support from the Clown mask, he can now fully understand the nature of Baron’s uncontrollable mutations.
In essence, it’s the body’s Demon Mark awakening and turn for extraordinary tolerance, which is insufficient to support that ferocious property growth.
Baron’s fusion mark’s tier may not be too high, silver or gold?
Even if it’s gold, Leonard Churchill predicted it wouldn’t support the ferocious attributes of the “original template profession card”.
But that doesn’t apply to others.
It’s different for Leonard Churchill himself!
The Mark-JOKER is an Epic Source Card, possessing the ability for his body to accommodate indefinitely, with a full elemental resistance that can grow.
This is a very strong physical adaptability.
Theoretically, he should be able to handle such ferocious gains.
Just like when he uses Feast to devour spirit mediums, even though his properties explode many times over, there are no signs of mutation.
Upon seeing this, he decided to bid first.
After all, he might not come across this card again after this instance.
“The starting price is 5 million…”
Leonard Churchill looked distressed.
After restocking on ammunition before, he really didn’t have much cash on hand. If he wanted to buy it, he would have to sell some of his potions or something.
Hoping secretly that no one would compete.
Fortunately, everyone seemed to be uninspired by this card.
As it stands, only one person bid.
Just when it seemed like they were about to walk away with it,
Leonard Churchill decided to have a go and bid, “6 million!”
The auction went more smoothly than expected.
After he raised the price, the initial bidder didn’t say anything.
Leonard Churchill could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
It seemed like everyone at the auction knew the situation with this “Cursed Spade 4”.
The seller had it out for sale as a way to set the stage for the upcoming legendary materials shop, as they were all spoils from last night’s battle.
Even if this card is powerful, the fact has been proven that it has a 100% mutation rate, and no one would dare to fuse after buying it.
Spending millions to buy a decoration might be a common practice among the noble class.
But in the resource-scarce Sinless City, such people do not exist.
Leonard Churchill managed to get the card as he wished..
