Auntie Li's Daughter
What did Luo Jun remember?
Remember when he failed to Heaven Returning and ultimately had to resort to Violence to defeat it?
Luo Jun had always been puzzled. According to the description of the treasure, the characters summoned by the Chaos Card should exist entirely on his vital energy. He could eliminate the characters as long as he withdrew his vital energy!
The description of the Noble Phantasm indicates that it has extremely high priority in the Chaos Mission System, which cannot be faked. The fact that his actions did not receive a response suggests that there must be other factors interfering with the Noble Phantasm's function!
What is it?
The answer is right in front of you!
The current High Priest, formerly the Tomb King, and also the Great Emperor from thousands of years ago, Ailongtan!
As the previous owner of the Chaos Card, normally he should have severed ties with them. However, the problem is that Ailongtan now belongs to Luo Jun and can use Luo Jun's Noble Phantasm. Even more coincidentally, due to the Dominator's Necklace 'Chaos Card Necklace, Ailongtan possesses 10% of Luo Jun's vital energy, exceeding 80,000 breaths!
This is interesting. The former master is the Summoned Creature of the current master, and at the same time, the current master's vital energy flows in its body. So it can be said that in the judgment of Noble Phantasms, Ailongtan and Luo Jun are almost the same, at most the difference is the priority.
So, when Luo Jun, who had the highest priority, cut off the energy supply, Ailongtan, the backup energy source, automatically activated. That's why the angels continued to exist!
Of course, one reason for this is that the angels themselves weren't very convinced by Luo Jun. The other cards, even without having their power cut off, all obediently returned at Luo Jun's command. Only this guy had enough wings.
This is likely why the Severity Coefficient.
Summoning an unruly First-class Expert could potentially cause considerable disaster if not controlled properly. This is the Main World, after all. Even if he doesn't pose a threat to Luo Jun himself, if this guy acts recklessly and harms innocent people, and is exposed to the public eye, the trouble he could cause would be significant.
The Severity Coefficient rating is determined with Luo Jun's own interests in mind, but it doesn't completely disregard others. A disaster that could cause a large number of casualties would be rated as having a high Severity Coefficient, even if it didn't harm Luo Jun.
Wait... no!
Luo Jun drew another Xiao Wang from the deck, frowning as he looked at the eerie and beautiful demon depicted on it.
He initially predicted that he would draw the Big Joker, not the Joker... Does that mean that even if he drew the Xiao Wang, it would still cause trouble?
It seems this Lilith is a problem child too...
Thinking of this, Luo Jun's eyes lit up, and he looked at Ailongtan: "Since you are the former owner, you must know this deck of cards very well, right? Do you have any tips for using it?"
Ailongtan flipped through the cards, clicked his tongue, and said, "In my time, there were no playing cards. These Number Card must have been improved. Since Master has already tested them, they should only differ in power, nothing special."
As he spoke, he picked up the Character Card: "These Character Card are all old friends; they helped me a lot back then."
" Of the Four Knights, I've already seen the masters of Diamonds and Spades... As for the remaining Hearts, I used to call her the Glory Knight. She wielded a sword and shield, combining offense and defense, making her the most well-rounded in Combat Power... As for Clubs, she was the only female knight, and I used to call her the Dark Arrow. She was the most agile, proficient in archery and various Hidden Weapon, and she liked to poison her weapons, making her a master of assassination."
Luo Jun nodded. "And the Queen?"
"Queen?" Ailongtan looked at the summoned Queen of Spades: "Give the Master a performance."
The Queen of Spades nodded, and with a wave of her hand, magical light shone from both hands—fire in her left hand and a whirlwind in her right.
"The title ' Queen ' was probably changed to correspond to playing cards," Ailongtan chuckled. "Back then, these four were called the Four Witches; two were proficient in black magic, and two in white magic. The one corresponding to spades was proficient in various offensive Law Technique, while the one corresponding to clubs was proficient in summoning Law Technique."
"Two White Magician, the Hearts specialize in healing and buffs, the Diamonds are proficient in various defensive Law Technique, each with their own uses."
As he spoke, Ailongtan picked up four Kings and placed them on the table. "These four are the ones I use most often. After all, the probability of drawing Lucifer and Lilith is too low. Among the other characters, these four heroes are the strongest... Oh, now they should be called the Four Kings. Anyway, they were originally kings in their respective fields, so it's quite fitting."
"You've already seen the Undead King," Ailongtan said, pointing to the King of Hearts. "This is the Merciful King. His weapon is a long staff, which, though bladeless and without an edge, is incredibly powerful. His abilities are mostly healing and buffing, but they can only be applied to himself; don't expect him to heal others."
"This King of Spades is the Destruction King. His weapon is Polearm Greatsword. His fighting style is the most ferocious, but his ability is very limited, consisting of only one: destructive Law Technique."
"A destructive Law Technique?" Luo Jun looked at the Queen of Spades: "The same as hers?"
"It's different. A witch's magic has to simulate wind, fire, thunder, and lightning to attack," Ailongtan explained. "Destruction magic is different; it directly unleashes concentrated energy, Unstoppable!"
"Isn't that just internal energy?" Luo Jun said.
"It's different. It's much harder than ordinary qi, more destructive, and has a longer attack range." Ailongtan stroked his chin. "Speaking of which, it's somewhat similar to Master's Gathering Origin Protective Qi ... but it can't be used for defense, only for offense."
"You'll see when the time comes." With that, Ailongtan picked up the last King of Diamonds. "This is the War King, the only one among them with a mount."
Luo Jun took a look and it was indeed true. The man's portrait depicted him riding a monster that resembled a warhorse but had a single horn and was much larger and more robust. He was holding a large spear, making him look more like a knight.
"Although he has a mount, in terms of one-on-one combat ability, he can't compare to those three even on horseback," Ailongtan laughed. "However, he's the one I'm most comfortable using, because all his abilities are auras!"
"As long as he's on the battlefield, all my soldiers, blessed with various halos, will become Superman! Truly invincible and unbeatable!"
"That's truly remarkable..." Luo Jun asked, "How wide is the range of that halo?"
"Very large!" Ailongtan said, "At least tens of thousands of people would be no problem... However, the effect will weaken as the number of units affected increases... In my experience, having him lead around ten thousand people will yield the best overall effect."
"That's a real treasure." Luo Jun took the card, his eyes shining. "What I have in abundance right now is soldiers."
"Now we only have these two trump cards left." Ailongtan picked up the Big Joker and Xiao Wang: "You've already met the angel Lucifer. His main abilities are related to close combat. You can think of his holy light as a special kind of energy. This energy has two states, positive and negative. In the positive state, contact with the energy will bring positive effects, such as healing, Soothing, replenishing energy, etc., which is very similar to the legendary angels... If it switches to the negative state, then contact with the energy will bring negative effects, such as corrosion, cutting, explosion, etc... which are powerful attack methods."
"Judging from this, he didn't use his full strength that day." Luo Jun stroked his chin.
"Lucifer is very powerful, truly deserving of the title of strongest card." Ailongtan nodded, "However, no matter how well he performs, he can never be a match for the great master."
As he spoke, he picked up the Xiao Wang again: "Finally, only Lilith is left." "You just said that she's easier to manage than Lucifer?" Luo Jun asked.
"That's how it seems on the surface." Ailongtan nodded. "Lucifer may seem domineering and arrogant, but he's actually quite straightforward. Just treat him like a big boy and understand his behavior as rebellion and impulsiveness. Teenagers are always hard to control."
"But this Lilith is much more complicated," Ailongtan chuckled. "She appears much more submissive on the surface, but no one can ever truly grasp her thoughts..."
"As for her abilities, Lilith is not as strong as Lucifer in direct combat, but she is very intelligent and her abilities lean towards Illusion Faction. She is particularly good at infiltration and stealth. Back then, many enemies that I could not defeat head-on were dismantled from within thanks to her."
"Sounds much more useful than that chuunibyou angel." Luo Jun nodded. He didn't lack Combat Power, but agents proficient in illusion were a rare resource.
However, it wasn't convenient to test these abilities right now, so Luo Jun put away the cards for the time being.
"Oh, by the way, don't forget to go downstairs and see Auntie Li later." Luo Jun said with a smile, "She came upstairs yesterday specifically to say that the girl is back."
Upon hearing this, Ailongtan immediately wore a bitter expression.
"My Great Master, please don't laugh at me... How about I go out and hide for a few more days..."
"No way, I already promised them." Luo Jun wasn't about to miss out on the show, and laughed, "It's alright, whether it works out or not, we'll meet in person... It's an order! I'll go with you in a bit!"
Seeing that he couldn't disobey, Ailongtan had no choice but to agree. After dinner, under Luo Jun's "coercion," Ailongtan reverted to his old self as Xiao Liu, and the two went downstairs together and knocked on Auntie Li's door.
The original text can be found at 6#9@book/bar!
Before long, Auntie Li opened the door and beamed with joy upon seeing Xiao Liu. She quickly ushered the two of them into the house.
The layout of the house was the same as upstairs. The two sat on the sofa in the living room. Auntie Li exchanged pleasantries while offering them some fruit. "Have some fruit first. I'll go call Xiao Hui out. She just got back yesterday and is a little tired, so she got up a bit late..."
"It's nothing, it's nothing..." Luo Jun laughed, "I'm a college student too. My studies are tough during the week, and I just want to sleep in a little longer when I finally have a break..."
Auntie Li smiled and said, "My cousin is so thoughtful. You all eat first." As she spoke, she walked into the room, closed the door behind her, and then faint voices could be heard coming from inside.
Auntie Li was clearly trying to keep her voice down so no one would hear, but she couldn't hide it from Luo Jun's ears.
"You silly girl, didn't I tell you we were having guests coming and I wanted you to hurry up and get ready? Why did you lie down again after washing your face? Are you trying to embarrass your mother?"
"What do you mean you don't want to go on a blind date? What kind of blind date is this? It's just introducing you to a friend..."
"Get up! Get up! Don't let people laugh at you. Look at you, you don't look like a proper girl at all!"
After a while, the door finally opened, and Auntie Li walked out with a somewhat embarrassed look on her face, followed by her daughter Xiao Hui, who was still yawning.
Xiao Hui was wearing a sweatshirt and loose jeans, casual but not sloppy. Although her face was bare, her features were delicate and well-proportioned, especially her big, captivating eyes. Despite her impatient expression, it was clear that she was a natural beauty; Auntie Li wasn't exaggerating.
However, whether it was Ailongtan, who once controlled the entire empire, or Luo Jun, who has experienced several worlds, their vision is not low. The beautiful school beauties in the eyes of ordinary people are not so amazing to them. They just politely praised them a few times.
"Under Auntie Li's matchmaking, the group chatted awkwardly for a few minutes, but the girl remained uninterested. Although Ailongtan had Luo Jun's orders, he was only outwardly warm but inwardly cold, and nothing sparked between them; it was just polite small talk."
Seeing the atmosphere growing increasingly awkward, Auntie Li was at a loss. Just then, Luo Jun stood up. "Auntie, it's such a wonderful holiday, and we're all young people, so let's not stay cooped up at home. How about this, Sister Xiao Hui hasn't eaten yet, right? Let my cousin take her out for a stroll, have some coffee or dim sum, something to give her some alone time and make it easier for her to talk..."
Auntie Li nodded immediately upon hearing this. "How could I possibly understand your young people's way of communicating... There just opened a new coffee shop near the entrance of the community, I heard the food is pretty good, why don't you go there to chat... Auntie's treating!"
"No need for Auntie Li to spend any money," Luo Jun smiled. "My cousin has already made arrangements!"
And so, under Luo Jun's arrangement, the three "young" people went downstairs to the coffee shop that Auntie Li had mentioned and found a seat by the window.
"What would you like to drink or eat? I'll order." Luo Jun picked up a menu from the table and got up to leave.
Just then, a "beep" sounded, Xiao Hui had already scanned the order code on the table, "What would you like to drink? It's on me."
Luo Jun and Ailongtan were somewhat surprised. "We can't accept this..."
"It's nothing, it was just my mom who insisted on bringing you here." As she spoke, Xiao Hui glanced at Ailongtan: "I can tell you're not interested in me, but this little cousin of yours is quite enthusiastic... unfortunately, he's not my type."
Seeing the girl's frankness, Luo Jun stopped being polite. "I'll have a cup of hot milk, and an espresso for my cousin." As he spoke, he sat down. "Could it be that Sister Xiao Hui already has someone she likes? Then tell Auntie, so she won't have to worry."
"No, I'm just not really interested in ordinary people right now." As she spoke, Xiao Hui started operating her phone.
"Ordinary people?" Luo Jun raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean? Aren't we all ordinary people?"
After placing her order, Xiao Hui put down her phone, looked at Luo Jun, who was full of curiosity, and Ailongtan, who was somewhat reserved, and smiled slightly, "The world may not be as simple as it seems on the surface."
As she spoke, she lowered her voice and leaned forward slightly. "Do you believe in supernatural powers?"
