Chapter 40: Chapter 19: Acquiring the Vehicle
"Fire truck, fire truck, fire truck...."
Murmuring the chant, Ree Shil placed his hand on the card.
[Roar Roar Roar!]
"Damn."
The result was a [Common Loss Beast].
"Fire truck, fire truck, fire truck...."
[Roar Roar Roar!]
"Shit."
It was still a [Common Loss Beast].
The majority of cards in this instance deck are [Common Loss Beast].
But having nine consecutive previews of [Common Loss Beast], his morale was a bit shattered. freёwebnovel.com
If the last card isn’t a fire truck, he would be at a loss.
"Sigh, seems like I have no luck."
Helpless, Ree Shil pressed his hand on the [?] card.
He could choose, but if there is none in the deck, then it’s hopeless.
[Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep ♪~ Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep ♫~]
"Huh? Orchid Grass?"
Then, he heard a familiar melody.
A car slowly drove out of the card projection.
It was a white car equipped with a large water tank.
"Great stuff, no less than a fire truck."
His eyes instantly lit up.
[Water Sprinkler Truck]
Determination, 10 Points, E-Rank
Attack 10, 100/100
"And it’s of the Determination classification, which indicates this car is built to withstand bumps."
"E-Rank doesn’t matter much, later I can just fortify it a few times."
Without paying attention to the other cards, he swiftly selected this one.
He flipped it over with his hand.
Whoosh!
The card turned into a stream of light and penetrated into his body.
"The rest of them are easy to choose."
His eyes fell on the remaining cards. He already knew what to choose.
After several steps, the cards he had gained from the eight draws in this instance were:
[Water Sprinkler Truck] -E
[Giant Undead Left Arm] -E
[Giant Undead Right Arm] -E
[Giant Undead Upper Body] -D
[Zombie Beast Hound] -D
[Strengthened Mourning Beast] -D
[Ugly Chef] -D
[Ghostfire Boy] -C
The only C-Rank card he held from the entire 400 card pool was [Ghostfire Boy].
It seemed like the gold content of the card pool in a rookie instance was higher compared to [City of Zombie Beasts], but after all, it was a low-level instance, that was to be expected.
[Card Selection Completed]
[Please Receive Cubic Coin Reward]
After selecting the cards, the coin reward drifted over.
"So much!"
Ree Shil took it over, raising his eyebrows.
Over 1000 Cube coins, it was more than five times the previous reward.
After happily checking all his gains, he left the instance.
Buzz!
Suddenly lighter, he found himself in the villa’s first-floor hall.
Mossy Mushroom and Straw Man had already been waiting for him.
"You took forever, it was just a card draw."
Mossy Mushroom complained a bit.
The mushroom instant noodles it cooked were about to go cold.
"Milk tea, grass~"
Straw Man clung onto Ree Shil’s clothes, it hadn’t forgotten the promise just now.
After asking the two about their gains, both had done well.
Mossy Mushroom obtained 2 D-Rank and 6 E-Rank cards, while Straw Man obtained 3 D-Rank and 5 E-Rank.
As for Cube coins, everyone had a similar amount, a little over 1000.
"Didn’t expect to leave the instance so many days early."
"Around this time, the supervisor should still be awake."
"Let’s give him a call, we can go to work tomorrow."
Mossy Mushroom glanced at the clock, it was now 9 p.m.
"In a hurry to go to work?"
Ree Shil yawned.
He couldn’t have a good sleep in that instance.
Plus, he looked through 400 cards, he felt quite tired.
"Of course, what could be more important than making money?"
Despite just having received a considerable sum, Mossy Mushroom still had its heart set on wages.
"Truly like you, your success is indeed the result of hard work."
Ree Shil looked at it, waved and turned upstairs, "So today and tomorrow, I am not going to work."
"Me neither, grass~"
Straw Man also followed upstairs.
"???"
Mossy Mushroom stood stunned, then heard Ree Shil’s voice again.
"I’m sleeping in, don’t wake me."
"So you mean you’ll only go to work the day after tomorrow."
"Isn’t the day after tomorrow just another today, what work, what work."
"..."
Back in his room, he quickly finished his washing.
Lying on the comfortable bed, Ree Shil felt his fatigue lessen significantly.
"Not sleepy at all."
He couldn’t sleep, so decided to open his system panel.
[Number of times you can enter the instance world]: 0 times
(14 days 21 hours 13 minutes 06 seconds)
The instance world cooldown time starts after leaving the instance.
Considering his current card player level, a cooldown would take around 15 days.
This gap is a bit long.
"Last time at the Association Headquarters, that sister mentioned there would be a Level 1 to 10 card player competition next month."
"If I wait 15 days to enter an instance again, it may clash with the competition."
Card Player Competition, he is quite interested.
It was getting late when he got off work that day, so he did not get to know much about it.
"Go to the Association Headquarters tomorrow, and ask about it in passing."
"There seem to be many exclusive stores there."
Now he had over 1500 Cube coins in his account, perhaps he could buy the right cooldown potion.
Cooldown potion, a prop specifically used to shorten the instance world cooldown time.
"In passing, could check if there are any material cards to buy."
Unlike cards, material cards can be traded.
Material cards’ value might not necessarily be high, but they are rare.
Just like when he previewed the 400 cards, only one E-Class material occurred, a [Bloodstained Socks]
