The Card Apprentice

Chapter 511: An Irresistible Offer

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Staring at Chen Mu, Qiu Shanyu solemnly said, “Wiping out the Blood Tinge Card Artisan Team for you.”

Chen Mu was stupefied for a moment. He did not expect that Qiu Shanyu would be willing to sacrifice so much for this training program. Apparently, the idea of repairing the relationship between the two sides was there, however the price was exorbitant. Being one of the most prestigious Card Artisan Team in the Heavenly Drum Village District, the Blood Tinge Card Artisan Team was a monumental group. The manpower and material resources required to eliminate such a group were definitely astronomical figures.

“Is it possible that with Faya’s strength in the Heavenly Drum Village District, the Blood Tinge Card Artisan Team could be eliminated?” Having recovered from his daze, Chen Mu frowned, “There is no way that Moon Frost Island will allow Faya to create such a disturbance at this time. ”

Qiu Shanyu said calmly, “It’s not easy to eliminate the Blood Tinge Card Artisan Team, but you’re more important! Moon Frost Island certainly would not sit idly and do nothing. However, I believe that there are many people who were secretly opposing them. As long as we’re well-planned to fish in troubled waters, we’ve got a chance to succeed!”

Thinking carefully about Qiu Shanyu’s words, Chen Mu could not deny the fact that what she had said was not completely impossible. Furthermore, this offer was really something he could not refuse.

He did not have much confidence in the plan that he had designed. He actually knew that he was not a tactical genius as claimed by Luo Xiju. Previously, when Bogner and Jiang Liang were present, these were never things that he had to worry about. Now he was like a duck driven to the perch. Although the last ambush was very successful, he still had no confidence in his heart. These days upon crazily digesting everything the tactical books could give him, he increasingly noticed his ignorance.

Spending all his time painstakingly trying to design a plan at this moment was just a mere effort of trying out what he thought could be done.

Therefore, the conditions proposed by Qiu Shanyu had directly hit his soft spot, forcing him to seriously consider her suggestion. Faya had the ability to take out the Blood Tinge Card Artisan Team. If the latter could really be destroyed, Bogner’s pressure would reduce dramatically, and that might even be translated into winning without fighting.

“How long will it take for Faya to mobilize their resources?” Chen Mu thought for a moment and asked.

Qiu Shanyu was secretly pleased. She knew that she had altered Chen Mu’s thoughts successfully. In her opinion, Chen Mu was undoubtedly a very difficult person to deal with. He was restrained and not a man of impulse. Women’s beauty did not have any effect on him. He was realistic but not greedy, which meant that it was also not easy to touch his heart with materialistic things. Coupled with the enmity of the two sides previously, there was basically no possibility of cooperation.

Fortunately, he was caring, especially to his comrades!

Although she had already discovered Chen Mu’s weak spot, what made her depressed was that Chen Mu’s companions were extremely powerful. This also led to her inability to take advantage of this.

This is all thanks to the Blood Tinge Card Artisan Team!

Yet Qiu Shanyu’s face remained calm. She slowed down her speech but her brain was spinning fast, “It’ll take about half a month. However, our strength in the Heavenly Drum Village District is limited, so this battle might only last for a while.”

“How long?” Qiu Shanyu’s words did not come to Chen Mu as a surprise. If she said that the fight would end in a few days, he might not even believe it. The Blood Tinge Card Artisan Team was born and raised in the Heavenly Drum Village District, and their foundation in the district was solid, with hundreds of them in each of the various places. Given such a behemoth, even if Faya was bigger than it, it would still require a lot of effort. On top of that, the Blood Tinge Card Artisan Team had the advantage of fighting in their territory.

“Considering if nothing unexpected happens, it should take about one and a half months,” Qiu Shanyu continued, “However, as long as the war begins, the pressure on your friends will be much smaller.”

Chen Mu made a swift decision. He agreed, “Good. But no need for large-scale deployment. I think you should have the ability to mobilize resources immediately to launch exploratory attacks on the Blood Tinge Card Artisan Team. Engage the exploratory attacks first, followed by the mobilization of your forces on a large scale. The mobilization does not need to be too hidden. If you can carry that out, regardless of whether the Blood Tinge Card Artisan Team is eliminated, I will give you this whole set of training guidelines.”

His thoughts were suddenly crystal clear. Why do we need to eliminate the Blood Tinge Card Artisan Team? There was no necessity for that that at all! Chen Mu had enough confidence in the abilities of Bogner and the rest. He firmly believed that as long as he grabbed a slight opportunity for them, the final victory would be theirs.

Like the old saying went, coming events would always cast their shadows beforehand. The exploratory attacks, coupled with the scale of power mobilization could give the illusion to one that there would be an impending disastrous war ahead! Chen Mu did not believe that they would be safe and sound confronting head on against the Blood Tinge Card Artisan Team. Moreover, it was a completely unreasonable force like Faya!

He was adamant that the first responsive measure of the Blood Tinge Card Artisan Team will be to shrink their power, strengthen defense and reconnaissance. It was also possible for them to seek assistance from other forces, such as Moon Frost Island.

For Chen Mu, the purpose had been reached!

Qiu Shanyu was slightly shocked when she understood what Chen Mu meant.

She couldn’t help but to admire and admit that Chen Mu’s approach was more subtle and safer, and this was something she really wished for.

Could it be that this guy is really a tactical genius?

She did not hesitate to agree, “Alright then, we’ll just do it according to your plan!” Her heart was very much relieved. If she could really help save Chen Mu’s companions, it would bring about positive effects on repairing the relationship between the two sides. It was also extremely beneficial in improving her personal situation at this moment. As for the two billion, she was totally not interested.

The Tai-shu family was indeed filthy rich. The goods worth 2 billion euros were ready in merely half a day. These materials were personally developed by Chen Mu, including the Jungle Shuttle and power-cards as well as various medicines and foods.

Chen Mu was also the first to see the Jungle Shuttle. It was about six-metres long and its outer body resembled big drop of water. Painted white, it was smaller compared to the ordinary transport shuttle, however it was much more flexible in terms of mobility.

One of the shuttles also had a specially modified card-making room which was equipped with professional card-making instruments.

Chen Mu selected a total of 2,000 card artisans. These card artisans were all of excellent personal capabilities, strong discipline, and more than three years of practical experience. As for the remaining card artisans, however the Tai-shu family would attract them would not be something he would need to worry about. Nonetheless, the only thing the Tai-shu family did not lack was money.

With the help of the night, Chen Mu led the team and left Dongrui City without alerting anyone.

No one knew where he would take these people to, including Qiu Shanyu.

Chen Mu did not know that his whereabouts were not so secretive after all, with so many people watching him leave!

Baiyue and Tai-shu Yong watched the team disappear into the night.

Overcome with emotion, Tai-shu Yong said, “I never understood how the White Commander does things. But in the end, I always find him achieving a lot of things unknowingly. This kind of feeling leaves me speechless.”

Baiyue did not answer. Her crystal clear eyes were observing from afar.

Ji Zhihao and Tan Yumin watched the departure of the team. Ji Zhihao’s face revealed a relieved expression, “He finally left, and we can have a good night’s rest.”

During this period of time, Ji Zhihao always had a feeling of being suppressed. Now that Chen Mu had left, he suddenly felt that his mind was a lot more relaxed.

“What is he trying to do?” Tan Yumin suddenly asked.

“Who knows?” Ji Zhihao shrugged and said disapprovingly, “Is there even anyone who can guess what’s going on in this guy’s mind? He is a character that even Rossiji will praise!”

“Yes! No one will ever be able to see through him,” Tan Yu Min sighed. The colour of the night reflected in her eyes, and made them look melancholic.

Ji Zhihao heaved a sigh as well. His lady always had a high amount of expectation in everything, and for many years there had never been people who could impress her. Now, one person has finally come by, but the two of them were rivals like water against fire. He could also see that that Chen Mu did not even regard the lady as someone important.

The most terrible thing in this world is not the lack of love, but rather the indifference to the point that even the feeling of hate does not exist.

Both of them remained silent for a moment.

Ji Zhihao suddenly asked, “Miss, are you really determined in that matter?”

“That matter?” Tan Yumin’s desolate and disorientated eyes gradually recovered and regained their firmness which was also cold and full of hate. Her gaze was re-casted to the distance, and as if she was talking to herself, “As long as I can achieve my goal, I don’t care what I do. I have nothing, as well as nothing that can be lost.”

Ji Zhihao looked at Tan Yumin, and his heart was unsettled as if it was pricked by a needle.

The fiery rain had dyed the night sky of Lijiang City into redness. The low whistling sound was as dense as thunder, and every time it roared, it would take away a life.

All the residents’ windows and doors were closed. They shivered in their room, and those ordinary card artisans did not even dare to initiate any moves at this time. However, what they wondered was, who would actually dare to challenge the Blood Tinge Card Artisan Team?

However, these people were very happy internally. Ever since the day the Blood Tinge Card Artisan Team entered Lijiang, they were uncontrollable and behaved recklessly. It was said that the number of rapes they committed was as high as 30, and they became more and more unscrupulous. Those card artisans who dared to fight against the injustice were all smashed into mud by them.

Kill! Kill! Kill them all without sparing even a single one!

Many prayed silently in their hearts.

The battle sound only lasted for less than half an hour. When an unfamiliar team of card artisans entered the city, everyone understood that this part of the Blood Tinge Card Artisan Team was finished!

When some people saw this team of card artisans, they were all dumbfounded. Was it really this group of card artisans who looked like beggars who defeated the Blood Tinge Card Artisan Team?

The first move of this pauper-like team went beyond everyone’s expectations for the first place they occupied was actually the hospital!

People also found that the discipline of these card artisans were very strict. From the beginning to the end, except for the occasional sweeping of cold eyes across the place, no one heard them say even a single a word.

There was no doubt that this base of the Blood Tinge Card Artisan Team had now become a camp for the Snow Silkworm Card Artisan Team. It was not known if it was because Jiang Liang was triggered by the name ‘Little Ginger’, that it became the reason why he was acting so merciless that he left no one surviving from this huge branch.

The whole team entered the camp and everyone was immediately busy. Arranging for vigilance, organizing new bases, escorting injured card artisans into hospitals, purchasing food...

Bogner and Xi Ping however, came to the warehouse in front of the base.

The two men smiled at each other and pushed open the warehouse door of the base!
