Unbound, unclaimed magic cards remain sealed and their effects can be easily determined through magical appraisal. {Google search}
"Lanche, from now on, give me a look before you use this card..."
"Hubleyan feels like he got the card that can make everyone unhappy, and it's gonna be a pain teaming up with him again…"
The only thing that brought Huberly any comfort was that she had now been magically forged with an immunity to sonic magic.
"Okay."
Lancer nodded and gently reached out to grasp the orange-glowing magic card before him.
He just stared at the card, his brows furrowed, seemingly a little unhappy.
"What's wrong"
"Is it not effective" Huberly asked, puzzled.
"No, I think the name of this card is too bad. When I get back, I have to find a master to change its name for me."
Lanche said gravely.
In his past life, the country he lived in had strict requirements and a very high level of harmony for bloody, violent game texts and illustrations.
Lanche himself is also very actively responding to this call.
"What do you want to change it to"
Huperbly felt a twinge of unease.
Let's call it "Melody Notes."
Ranch smiled calmly.
Huperlan: "..."
Originally, this card didn't seem quite right. After Ranch changed its name, the taste was perfect.
Huperlyan had nothing to say.
They both looked together with Lanche at the remaining two purple auras, each holding a magic card.
Before Lynch stood a card that seemed woven from the arcane magic of humans—
Illusion: Demon
Category: Spell Card
Rarity: Purple Rare
[Class: 2]
Effect: After use, it changes your race to demon. This does not change your true nature or appearance. Cooldown: 24 hours.
Note: The last survivor of the Imperial Infiltration Squad was based on the forbidden surgical procedures conducted at the Imperial Testing Grounds, and completed with the final disguise magic.
And the magic card in Huberlian's possession emanated a powerful demonic aura.
Illusion: Human
Category: Spell Card
Rarity: Purple Rare
Class: 2
After use, it allows you to change your race to human. It does not alter your true nature or physical characteristics. Cooldown time: 24 hours.
Note: The Reverse Disguise Magic developed by Purgatory Corridor Academy was based on the principle of the forbidden surgery conducted at the Imperial Testing Ground, reverse-engineered.
"Hmph, is this Shadow Realm messing with me"
Ranch looked at the card [Transmutation: Demon] with some strange expression on his face.
And Huberlyan, meanwhile, nervously stroked his [Shapeshifting: Human], seeming more excited than at any other time.
For her, this was a card that could truly allow her to transform into a human.
rather than the simple illusion magic she normally maintained in the mortal realm.
Even based on the strength of the [Illusion: Demon] which can bypass the demon academy's detection, the corresponding magic card [Illusion: Human] should also possess the ability to directly allow her to become almost completely human except at the soul level!
"Alright, harvest is in! Time to go back and get some good sleep."
With the loot collected, as soon as the thought of returning to Ictereus Academy crossed his mind, the drowsiness that had settled on Lance's thoughts like waves during yesterday afternoon's class suddenly surged back.
He just wants to go back to his dormitory and have a good sleep tonight.
"Well, get some rest. Even though it's late already."
Hubberley also smiled and said.
Sometimes you might think it's just an ordinary day, but maybe this is actually the best day of your life.
She now feels very happy. The feeling of each day dragging on has disappeared, and she even starts looking forward to tomorrow.
As the two prepared to step through the void gate and leave the liminal space.
What was thought to be over, the settlement, has new information. It appears with bloody red text.
The Serial World of Shadows — Blood Moon's Ruinous World, has been anchored to its historical coordinates. Current completion rate: 1/4.
Before the end of the series, the current challenger has a higher probability of entering the "Blood Moon Calamity" era Shadow Realm.
Clear the stage with an SSS rating to unlock the next node immediately.
Mission objective: Complete the final node with an SSS rating.
""
"Blood moon bad world..."
Both of them looked at the newly appeared settlement information with confused expressions.
This vast world has many ancient eras.
Hundreds or even thousands of years ago, countless nations were born and perished, heroes turned to dust, forming history.
With the break of history thousands of years ago, records of many earlier eras have vanished.
Only through the historical projections of the Shadow World can fragments be obtained, and historians can deduce some aspects of the original history.
The earliest known human history dates back approximately 20,000 years to the era of "Holy Nation Demon Realm," a period spanning from creation itself through numerous holy wars, leaving behind countless heroic epics. Humanity rose and flourished during this time.
Although there is no related Shadow World to prove how the end of the Holy Nation came about, in the nearly 20,000 years since "The Demon Realm of the Holy Nation", there has been no Shadow World evidence of a lost era called "The Blood Moon Catastrophe."
"Speaking of Huberlian, have you ever seen such a series of shadow worlds"
Lan Qi has never heard of the series Shadow World in any game content, nor has he seen any information about it in books from this world.
"Ancient texts mention... If you successfully clear the Shadow World and receive the highest rating, there's a possibility of encountering it, but few people meet these conditions. Reaching the final stage of the Shadow Worlds series is even harder than ascending to heaven; at least in the past thousand years, no one has been able to complete the Shadow Worlds series."
Hubbertly didn't expect that his first Shadow World fight with Lance would lead to a hidden mission objective, something only mentioned in rumors.
"However, compared to personal rewards, the historical information value of this shadow world is actually more terrifying. For example, when humans discovered the shadow world of the 'Holy Nation Demon Realm' era, they found many ways to fight demon tribes from the distant ancient holy war..."
Decades ago, the defeat and downfall of the demon race were inextricably linked to information gleaned by human scholars through analysis of intel from the Shadow Realm during the mid-period of the "Holy Nation Demon Realm" era.
"When you return, if you report the information about this hidden mission to the Shadow World Management Association or the Mage Tower, they will beg you to fight in the Shadow World. The academic value of the Lost Era Shadow World is immeasurable. However, correspondingly, blood clans in the present world will try every means to take your life."
Huperlyan said.
When they arrived in this threshold space, they shut down the recording function of the 【Shadow World Record Program】.
Because most challengers don't want their potential victory loot, magic cards, to be recorded.
Although the blood races of today are low-profile and hidden in the south, they are enemies of mankind and their threat level even exceeds that of the demon race.
As the strongest individual beings, blood races possess unreasonable power and immortality. In a one-on-one fight between equals, humans or demons are no match for a blood race, even if they manage to win, they will eventually be drained of their life force.
And perhaps the lost era's ancient shadow world of "Blood Moon Calamity" holds the key to defeating the blood race.
"No need to say more, I pretend not to have seen this hidden mission."
Ranch waved his hand and walked out towards the subspace. He wasn't crazy enough to go play with the Blood Clan.
"Yes, the blood clan hasn't bothered us again."
Hubley nodded as well, and joined Lance in walking toward the void portal that led back to their reality.
Their opinions were very unanimous; this covert mission absolutely must not be reported.
As he was about to step into that swirling void mirror.
"By the way, Lance, there's something I've never quite figured out."
Huberly paused abruptly, then hesitated before speaking.
What
Lanche turned back and asked.
"In the art room, what magic did you use to tell which paintings were painted by the professor and which were painted by the students"
Huperlyan looked at Lanci with confusion, as if she couldn't find an answer all along the way.
"……"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Lanchi first opened her mouth in slight surprise, then a sly and brilliant smile spread across her face.
"For something so simple, do you really need magic"
(The End)
[ ]nchi had absolutely no way of knowing what she would do. He could only communicate with her through thoughts.Even when giving orders, he would phrase them as requests.No familiar is like the Great Lov...
