Purgatory Artist-Chapter 148: Advanced Cards
Chapter 148 - Advanced Cards
Time passed quickly.
Half a year later.
The youths from the Premature Death class had gradually familiarized themselves with life in the capital.
The Royal Library.
Liu Ping tidied up the last few books in the bookcart and put them back on the shelf. He then returned to the book borrowing counter.
As soon as he sat down and was about to continue reading the book about the history of the Empire, he saw someone come in.
"Do you want to borrow a book? Eh, it's you? "Liu Ping was surprised.
Libertas.
He was wearing a dark green leather armor with two long daggers at his waist. He looked travel-worn.
"Why, are you surprised?" Libertas asked.
"Didn't you participate in the wild hunt? I heard that many sleeping monsters have awakened. It's very difficult to deal with them, "Liu Ping said.
"For ordinary people, that situation is indeed difficult to deal with, but for me ... I just feel that such low-intensity battles are a waste of time, so I finished the mission early and came back," Libertas shrugged.
He picked up a book, flipped through it, then put it down. He picked up another book, flipped through it, and put it down again.
"What's so interesting about books? Don't you feel bored staying in the library?" Libertas asked.

"Of course it's interesting. There's so much to learn. If possible, I'll just work here in the future." Liu Ping said with a smile.
Libertas was silent for a few moments, then asked, "Your Advance Card — how's it going?"
"It's not enough for me to advance" Liu Ping replied, sounding dejected.
"I thought that among the four of us, you would be the first to advance," Libertas said.
He counted with his fingers and said, "Hua Qingkong advanced immediately after she got the Advance Card on the first day here. Xiao Mengluo also advanced successfully that night. I was a little slower and advanced on the afternoon of the second day. I didn't expect you to take half a year and still not advance."
"This kind of thing can't be rushed. Maybe I don't have that kind of talent," Liu Ping said.
Libertas sighed, "Forget it, up to you. If you really can't advance, being a librarian is quite suitable for you. After all, you like to read."
"I think so too," Liu Ping said with a smile.
"Be careful of Qian Wuzhou. After he was rescued from the pile of corpses, he has been looking for trouble with you. I heard that he has been doing well in the army recently and is returning to the Imperial City to receive an honorary commendation," Libertas said.
"Yeah, I'll stay in the library and not go out. He won't be able to find trouble with me" Liu Ping said.
"That's good." Libertas patted him on the shoulder as if he had put down something. "I'll go back to the dormitory to take a shower and rest. I'll look for you at dinner time."
"Alright, see you tonight," Liu Ping said as he watched him turn around and leave.
Sitting behind the large mahogany table, he flipped open the book and started reading seriously.
Not long after.
A man in uniform walked in and placed the package on the table.
"Liu Ping, this is your package."
"Where did it come from?"
"I don't know. The address indicated that it was a confidential department, so I couldn't find the sender."
"Ah, okay, I got it. Thank you."
"You're welcome."
After that person left, the library regained its tranquility.
Liu Ping opened the package and saw a palm-sized medicine bottle. There was a letter attached to the side.
The letter read:
"I'm getting busier and busier now. I'm afraid I won't be able to return to the Royal Academy for the time being. I just want to ask if you've advanced. If not, drink this medicine. It improves your physique and can help you advance quickly. "
"Oh, right, this medicine is super expensive. You're not allowed to sell it. If you do, I'll fall out with you."
"— — Hua Qingkong."
Liu Ping kept the letter and picked up the small bottle that contained the potion.
Lines of burning text instantly appeared in the void of space:
[Soul Nourishing Medicine.]
[Rare.]
[After using this medicine, no matter what your card level is, it can strengthen the strength of your soul and directly increase your Soul Power by one point.]
Liu Ping's eyes flashed as he carefully kept the medicine.
Half a year ago.
The four of them reported to the Royal Academy and received a grand commendation again.
Due to their young age, the Royal Academy wanted them to enter the Royal Academy to further their studies. When they grew up in the future, they would be rearranged into the Royal Guards.
The four of them agreed readily.
Hence, there was this half a year of peace.
As soon as Hua Qingkong entered the school, she immediately attracted the attention of the entire school.
— — -She's too outstanding.
In half a year, she's already been accepted into the Empire's top secret department. She often goes out on missions and only occasionally returns to the school.
As for the medicine that she sent over.
— — -This is good stuff.
Even if it's Hua Qingkong, it wouldn't be easy to get a medicine like this.
Alright, I'll drink this when I get back tonight.
Liu Ping silently thought and kept the medicine away. Just as he was about to continue reading, he suddenly felt a faint fragrance coming from the air.
He raised his head and saw a beautiful girl standing at the door with a smile on her face.
"You're here?" Liu Ping greeted.
"I just finished my mission and passed by the library, so I came to see you," Xiao Mengluo said.
"Reading?" Liu Ping asked.
"Not today — — I have to hurry back to see my teacher. I'll come find you for dinner tonight," Xiao Mengluo replied.
"Tonight, Libertas said he's coming."
"Then let's go together, see you tonight."
Saying so, Xiao Mengluo turned around to leave. Then she suddenly thought of something and asked:
"Your card advancement — — how's it going?"
"Not yet," Liu Ping said.
"... Fine, don't take it to heart. If it really doesn't work, there's still me in the future," after saying so, Xiao Mengluo's face suddenly turned red.
She didn't even look back as she pushed the door open and hurriedly left.
Liu Ping sat on his seat, was stunned for a while, then lowered his head and continued reading.
After reading for a while, he closed the book and fell into deep thought.
There was no one around.
The library was completely silent.
"Advance card ... hah ... I don't have a choice ..."
"Just a little bit more ..."
Liu Ping muttered to himself, then casually drew a card from the void of space and held it in his hand.
There was nothing else on the card, only something that looked like a thermometer.
Lines of burning words quickly appeared in front of his eyes.
[Advance Card]
[Power Accumulation Card, Empire's exclusive card]
[This is a unique card, it can be used to store all the power that your soul produces, as well as your physical body's power, and gift them to the Empire's war machine sequence]
[When your accumulated power reaches the maximum, you can summon the war machine sequence and contribute all the power stored in this card to it]
[In return, you will receive a chance to advance]
[In addition, you can also choose not to summon the war machine sequence, but contribute all the accumulated power to the slumbering Heroic Spirits in your hand to awaken them]
[According to Andrea's reminder, the easiest to awaken is:]
[Nine Lives Cat Demon Zhao Chanyi]
[In order to awaken her, you have already contributed 99% of your power, just a little bit more and you can completely awaken her]
[Do your best!]
Yes.
This card was very unique, it could be used to store one's power and contribute it to other beings.
After all, a person's power could be regenerated.
As long as they had enough rest, food and cultivation, their power would be replenished.
As soon as Liu Ping received this card, he immediately had that idea.
For half a year.
He had been using this card to think of a way to awaken Zhao Chanyi.
Zhao Chanyi was the King of Demonic Beasts; she had countless Demonic Arts, and dared to investigate the truth of the dark play alone.
Now that she had been turned into a card, she even had mystic powers.
As long as she awakens — —
Many things could be easily solved without much effort.
So for the past half a year, Liu Ping had never summoned the Empire's war machine sequence, instead, he had contributed all the power he had accumulated to Zhao Chanyi.
Now, she was about to wake up.
"Let me think ..."
Liu Ping stretched his back and casually put the card back into the void.
"If Zhao Chanyi wakes up, I can probably start thinking of ways to increase my level ..."
"But if that's the case, would Yana and Andrea be angry?"
"After all, I've only awakened Zhao Chanyi and stopped contributing power, would they think too much? Would they think that I don't value them? "
"Hmm ... hard to say ... very likely ..."
"Or should I continue to stay in the library, awaken Andrea and Yana together, and increase my level?"
Liu Ping held his chin anxiety taking over him.
