Inside the limitless library, the roads are wide.

Under a hanging canopy dozens of meters high, Lancy and Zestilla every step they took would illuminate the surrounding lamps, like drawing back one curtain after another.

This grand library, reminiscent of a classical theater, boasted towering bookshelves laden with tomes of magic. The dim light cast shadows across the shelves, and occasionally spectral pages could be seen fluttering in the air.

The floor, black marble inlaid with gold, reflected a faint glimmer. At times, one would suddenly realize that the floor was actually a gigantic magical crystal screen capable of displaying a myriad of psychedelic colors and information guiding the way.

The first space is an open reading area, which leads to a meeting room reception desk. A red carpet stretches from the end of the hall to the reception desk.

The two walked straight ahead until they entered the meeting room.

Above the reception desk hung a giant chandelier, casting a soft yellow glow that illuminated its smooth surface.

"Do you need help"

A porcelain-skinned, artificially beautiful woman, fair as snow and standing behind the reception desk, spoke.

Zessa Tila was slightly startled. She thought this puppet wouldn't speak.

"We'd like to redeem some collectibles."

Lance looked at Zestilla and smiled, reassuring her not to be afraid. Then, he addressed the automaton.

"Okay, please browse."

As the door to the meeting room closed, the puppet slowly activated the magical inscription on the reception desk. Soon, dark text appeared on its surface.

Zestilla, following the instructions, removed her bracelet and placed it on the sensing area.

After a few seconds of reading, new information appeared on the screen——

Exchangeable Content: One Pink Holy-Grade Magic Artifact.

> Located above the white, blue, and purple ranks, it is only second to the pink sacred rank of orange epics.

Please select the title, inventory record, and catalog from the collection according to the selection.

The puppet spoke again.

Zesira felt like her blood pressure was about to skyrocket just listening to this guy talk.

But Ranch seemed to be in a good mood, not caring at all. He simply thanked the puppet and then touched the search catalog.

Some are artifacts from the ancient times of the Demon Realm collected throughout imperial history, others are powerful magical cards crafted by masters, and some come from the Shadow World or were confiscated treasures.

"Teacher, would you like to choose a magic device or magic cards"

Ze'thila took a deep breath, and asked.

Lanche, hearing this, was slightly taken aback.

It is important to note that the rewards they were promised do not necessarily have to be magic cards.

Pink sacred-grade magic cards, magical devices, scrolls, and materials are all selectable.

The drawback of magic artifacts is that they cannot be soul-bound and brought into the Shadow Realm, their portability is slightly inferior, there is a risk of loss, but they will be more diverse than magic cards and do not occupy card slots.

In the northern continent, where worldly combat and resource disputes are more frequent, magic tools and magical cards are also popular.

Only in the peaceful and stable South Continent, where the focus is on conquering the Shadow World, are magic cards nearly overwhelmingly more popular than magical devices.

Scrolls can be used at once or as material for making spell cards.

Other materials depend on the skill level of the arcanist using them. If you only choose based on quality, you would only select materials if there were no good magical cards or magic devices available.

"If I were choosing within the Pink Sacred Grade, I would probably still lean towards magic cards."

"Lanchi replied,"

After all, he is from South Continent.

If he is not limited to card types, he will try his best to find spell cards.

Summon cards, equipment cards, and spell cards, although they are not divided into high or low, noble or common, according to Lan Qi's personal understanding, spell cards are the most noble.

Because high-quality spell cards are difficult to make, only those who possess the spells themselves or can learn them can create them. Epic-level cards are nearly impossible to produce, with only the Shadow Realm capable of creating them.

And those kinds of heaven-defying magic spells that one would be unable to learn in a lifetime, such as the Blood Clan abilities, if mastered through Epic Spell Cards, sometimes a single card could directly turn the tide of battle.

Equipment cards and Summon cards can't be said to be bad either. Equipment cards have low mana cost, provide lasting effects and basic stats, but their functions are relatively weak. Summon cards, on the other hand, consume a lot of mana and require focus to control or command the summoned creature. Once the summoned creature is destroyed, the card becomes ineffective.

So after filtering for the [Seal] category, ranking from high to low, Lance's gaze was primarily focused on the spell cards.

Summon cards and equipment cards are also options, but pink sacred quality bindings can be difficult to remove. His flexible card placement is already limited, so binding pink sacred magic cards needs careful consideration.

However, the sealing arts are a rather rare category of magic. The treasury has only one pink holy-grade sealing spell card, and it's only five ranks high.

Restricted Area in the Night

Category: Spell Card

Grade: Pink Sacred

【Class: 5】

Effect: Casts a barrier that blocks all vision centered on oneself. Casting and maintaining the barrier consumes a large amount of mana. When an entity within the barrier first touches its boundary, it will be briefly immobilized.

【Note: That was the last time you saw light.】

"

“…”

" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Ranch, upon seeing this familiar range visual seal card, casually skimmed over it.

This card is classified as Seal and Dark, its effect is similar to his 【Radiant Virtue】, but 【Radiant Virtue】's magic category is Seal and Light.

While a card comparison might suggest that [Black Night Zone] is stronger, the essence of [Radiant Virtue] lies in its vampire specialized attack.

There are only two cards of the sealed category, tier five.

Even at the fourth level, there is only one.

Forbidden Curse Seal

Category: Spell Card

Grade: Pink Sacred

Class: 4

Upon the other party's consent, a temporary subordinate contract can be signed with them, transforming them into your familiar. They will also receive an attribute bonus equal to one-eighth of your own.

Note: Give me your life, and there will be no problems.

"

This card's effect seems a bit weak, doesn't it

"

Zetheria saw this and said.

If used as support, it only adds a small amount of non-attacking attributes to the output, while using it in combat would occupy a card slot that could be used for other supports.

This card is hard to explain.

Lan Qi furrowed his brows and muttered.

Essentially, they are curse-type magic cards with a hint of sealing principles.

Although it may seem somewhat pointless at first glance, when combined with some spells that can "transfer demons" or "grant demons potent buffs", it can prove quite useful.

However, accepting this taboo curse is also quite dangerous. After becoming more like a summoned creature, it is possible to suffer instant-death effects and there is a risk of being further controlled.

"Actually, it's worth changing..."

Then, Lance decided to keep sliding down.

This magic has a bit of a taboo feeling to it because of the potential extension of transforming living beings into magical cards.

But Lynch always felt that in the creation of 【The Great Love Poet】, particularly its core material 【The Poem of Compassion】, there was a deeper and more subtly intertwined magical principle at play.

Maybe if I changed this card, the great poet would ridicule me.

When the time comes, if she says something like, "Do you even need to replace this trash card This lady can directly research it for you," that would be embarrassing.

The depth was visible at a glance, with the bottom easily seen.

Sealing-type magical cards are already rare, and pink holy-grade ones are even rarer, being scarce even in the Protoss Empire's treasury.

Lan Qi's gaze lingered on the last sealing magic, hesitant.

【Audio-Visual Rhythm Elimination Field】

Category: Spell Card

Grade: Pink Sacred

Class: 3

Effect: Eliminates sound from any area around itself. The larger the area, the more mana it consumes. Maintaining it will continuously consume a large amount of mana.

Note: Those cold, golden eyes, the world fell silent when he appeared.

Is there anything special about this card

Zeestilla felt that the more powerful offensive and control-type sealing spells had been crossed out by her teacher. However, her gaze lingered on this interference-type sealing spell.

This magic can completely suppress sound-based magic. Although it cannot interrupt a spell being cast through chanting, and it is ineffective against verbal spells, its primary function is to block the exchange of information between opponents.

Ranch explained.

After glancing over the appraisal details, he could be certain that this was definitely a magical artifact from the demon race.

Moreover, it showed no signs of craftsmanship and Talia had never mentioned such a sealing magic. It must be from the ancient Demon Realm's Shadow World.

If you choose this, the indiscriminate negative effects of 【Melodious Notes】 can be eliminated.

Or perhaps it was designed to suppress the magic of 【Melodious Notes】 itself.

If there were this spell at Purgatory Corridor Academy, it could even stop the hellish chorus of the classroom's core fusion.

"...."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Zestilla pondered, confused.

She always felt that the teacher's perspective on magic cards was quite strange.

She thought the card was very bad, but the teacher thought it was okay.

And she thought it was a good card. The teacher took a look and quickly crossed it out.

Lan Qi considered it, the sealed pink sacred type was acceptable, but he decided to first see if there was a more suitable one.

So it was changed to the 【Spirit】 category, and Lance began rapidly flipping through a stack of magic cards, carefully examining each one.

Zesthila watched silently from the side.

"Why don't you choose a magic card that you can use, Teacher"

She asked softly, with a hint of confusion.

She always picks the magical items in order from highest to lowest rank whenever she sees Rance browsing them.

In the entire treasure trove of pink sacred artifacts, high-level magic items are far less common than low-level ones.

Although high-end cards are undoubtedly much more expensive than low-end ones, the problem is that high-end magic cards are not easy to trade, even if there were channels available.

"In fact, even high-ranking magic cards are difficult to obtain at higher levels. Not only are the materials hard to come by, but even for card makers, the difficulty of an eighth-rank card maker producing an eighth-rank finished magic card far exceeds that of a third-rank card maker producing a third-rank magic card. If you have the opportunity to get magic cards, unless you urgently need to increase your combat power, it's best to choose higher-ranking ones."

Lanche browsed while speaking to Zeltira.

She might not have seen the effects of high-level magic cards before, so she thinks low-level cards are powerful.

Low-tier epic cards can indeed last a lifetime.

Other cards can also have outstanding effects in specific situations.

But in terms of strength and multiplier, there is always a chasm that cannot be bridged between low-end and high-end cards.

Cards ranked one to three are considered low-tier, focusing primarily on strategy and system filling. Cards ranked four and five are functional cards that form the backbone of the deck. Ranked six and above mark a turning point, with many powerful purple rare quality general-purpose cards appearing at this level.

For example, the sixth-rank purple rare spell 【Designated Purification】 can remove a specified abnormal status or control effect from oneself and prevent being affected by that same abnormal status or control effect for a certain period of time.

It can trigger when enemies cast low-level or low-quality spells, causing their spells to fail and enter a doubled cooldown of **Spell Counter**. It also has **Forced Dispels** that can forcefully dispel all statuses from itself or its opponents.

These three are the most popular level-six rare magical cards, easily combinable and replaceable. At level six, almost everyone will have one if they can afford it.

This is also the reason why they couldn't use hard control to continuously restrain and destroy the Saintess during the Demon Feast in the Cathedral's Shadow World.

She is almost entirely held back by soft control.

The seventh and eighth ranks are where true strength lies. It's so difficult to get even a blue, rare quality magic card at the seventh rank, and they're strong enough that it's hard to target them.

"I see."

Zethera nodded in understanding.

She still thought the teacher wanted to exchange rewards for cash, so she tried her best to look at higher-grade magic cards.

But even if the teacher really found a seventh-level magic card, how long would it take him to use it

Zesthira still understands things a little.

Now she was curious about what kind of card the teacher would choose last.

> Another ten minutes or so passed.

He looked through the photos one by one, but still hadn't made a decision.

Unfortunately, neither the seals nor his mental abilities, nor even the light and fire he summoned later, managed to reveal a pink Sacred-quality card of Rank 7.

He seemed to look at it symbolically, then he turned it off.

Even the treatment multiplier of the healing magic wasn't given a close look.

I don't know what he's doing looking at this category.

Zesthira was certain that the teacher only had these few spells that were compatible, and they were also the best choice for his system. It was even possible that he could analyze the principles within them in the future, and even decompose and recreate them.

It's normal for smaller categories like the Sealing Series and Spirit Series to not have high-rank cards. For example, there aren't many people who are naturally skilled in the Sealing Series.

As for popular elements like light and fire, the lack of high-tier cards is simply a matter of luck. They might have just been picked earlier years ago.

"…"

Please note that I cannot provide a translation for the "..." as it represents unknown text. If you provide the actual content within the quotation marks, I can happily translate it for you!

Lancelot stroked his chin thoughtfully.

He then changed the filter column to "Wind".

Zesthera: “”

The moment the teacher suddenly made this inexplicable choice, she inexplicably felt that someone was about to suffer.

I mastered the Hell God technique, so not only did I revive, this chapter also has 4000 words.

(The End)
