Chapter 318 Expedition

"Wow~"

Looking at the three constructs that were very different from the previous "heavy" style, Joanna sighed without any meaning.

Just as she wanted to go forward and touch them, the three constructs suddenly transformed on the spot, from the appearance of mechanical insects to the form of flying saucers, suspended in the air.

"Can they fly?"

Turning her head to look at Carl who was using psychic power to control the constructs, Joanna felt that she had opened her eyes today.

"Of course! They are substitutes for my floating guns. How can they not fly? Hey~, if my skills can be better, their size can be appropriately reduced, and their concealment will be stronger."

As he said, Carl controlled the three constructs to fly over, and then stroked their hard steel bodies like comforting his own puppies.

The core spirits of these little guys were condensed by Carl using the spirit card.

Because there is no battlefield craftsman who can directly summon the Iron Guard, Carl directly built the spirit card into the construct and set up a special energy system to ensure the long-term activation of the spirit card.

This makes these constructs have intelligence far beyond ordinary constructs. They can understand Carl's intentions with just a simple command from Carl, and can even automatically participate in the battle to assist Carl when Carl has no energy to take care of them.

Compared with the mechanical spider constructs that will not act without instructions, these iron worm constructs that are closer to ants are like upgraded versions with a high-version AI system installed.

Of course, there are some hidden dangers in doing so.

If someone has mastered psychic power like Carl and knows the constructs very well, he can also use psychic power to shut down the operation of these constructs.

After sending Joanna away, Carl turned around and told Hope, Nia and others what happened just now.

After learning that she could finally go on an adventure with Carl, Nia seemed a little excited.

"Wait, the candidates now are - Hope, me, Ying, Iris and Ashe? Can we add Mitris? I work well with her."

After counting the candidates for this "expedition", Nia pondered for a moment and actually wanted to bring Mitris along.

Hearing Nia's request, Carl looked up in surprise and replied:

"Ah? But didn't she just pass the resurrection match and advance to the second round? She should be assigned to the third group of the second round. Isn't it a bit too late in time?"

Because Joanna is used to bringing many reports together, Carl not only learned about the Linland family, but also saw the battle table for the second round.

Due to some single-threaded thinking, he subconsciously thought that Mitris would not be willing to give up the game to participate in this action.

Unexpectedly, Carl was rolled his eyes by Nia as soon as he finished speaking.

"Come on, what time is it? How could Mitress still be addicted to playing cards? There won't be such a person who doesn't do his job in Storm Bay? Many adventurers outside have already started preparing for war!"

...

Just as Nia was trying hard to bring Mitress with her, Tum, who was studying a new deck with Kassa in the room of the port apartment, sneezed for no reason.

"A-choo!"

Several spirit cards on the table were blown away by the wind from the sneeze. Kassa, who was opposite, quickly blocked the droplets and then grabbed the two spirit cards in her hand.

"You, a level 14 necromancer, can get sick?"

Shaking her sleeves in disdain, she put the spirit cards back on the table and restored them to their previous appearance.

"Well! Maybe there's less sunlight recently, and the weather is getting colder.

By the way... do you have some unrealistic expectations for the necromancer? Of course we get sick too! Negative energy's erosion of vitality often makes our physical fitness lower."

After saying such a long string of words in one breath, Tum closed his mouth, as if the person who just spoke was not him.

"Ah~, don't worry about that now, have you heard? Ruiyi Drol sent spies here, and the assassins of Tak'nan also assassinated the representative of the Linland family. I always feel that the Storm Bay that has just calmed down is going to be in chaos again. Should we go back to the previous base?"

As the personnel sent by Velenna to deal with the Rose Cult, Kassa and Tum have not made any achievements so far.

On the one hand, this is because of the long life span of the elves, and on the other hand, it is because... Tum is too addicted to the game of spirit cards.

"Huh? The second round is coming soon. I heard that my opponent in the first round is the adopted sister of the founder of the Spirit Card. I need to show my best condition and deck to fight her!

At this time, how can we move because of such a small matter?"

Hearing such irresponsible remarks from her companions, Kassa's expression froze on her face. For a moment, she didn't know whether Tum was joking or serious.

"Hey! Wake up. Do you think the adventurers will participate in the competition at this time? Maybe the competition will be postponed!"

As a player who also advanced to the second round, Kassa's attitude towards the competition seemed much more normal.

However, Tum just looked up at his companions and immediately retorted:

"No, even if it is to stabilize the people's hearts, the competition will definitely continue, unless Ruiyi Drol really sends a large-scale army to attack."

At this point, Tum paused, and then continued: "I remember that you are a local elf who participated in the founding of Velen? You have lived in Tyr for so many years, and you can't even see through this kind of thing?"

If we talk about the place with the highest frequency of wars in modern times, it must be Velen controlled by the elves.

So when it comes to relevant experience, almost all the residents of Tyr are veterans.

With a slight twitch of his face, Kassa waved his hand and said stubbornly: "This is different. In Storm Bay... the situation is a little more complicated."

Hearing this, Tum's eyes shifted from the spirit card on the table to Kassa's face again.

"Actually, they are all the same. Although the proportion of professionals in Storm Bay is frighteningly high, the authorities still have to put on a peaceful and prosperous appearance to appease the public. If someone really waits for on-site mobilization, it will basically be the enemy's doorstep.

The Dragon Mark Family will never let the enemy do this. This is not in their interests in Storm Bay."

After saying that, Tum picked out a few spirit cards and put them in the spare deck beside.

"You are really wise! Oh~, I hope things will really develop as you said."

Shrugging, Kassa also took out his deck from his pocket and thought about how to improve it.

At this moment, there are not a few adventurers who have the same idea as Tum.

Although everyone continues to stockpile food and weapons, those who should play cards are still playing cards.

However, many well-informed adventurers noticed that the proprietress of the Next Life Bar left the bar in the middle of the night and went to the Bastion Base.
