Extra Story: Nie Lan Chapter 03(1/2)

【Nie Lan Extra-03】

Nie Yuandao thought Xiaolan was just passing by the Judgment Club and came in to play with him. Until Shan Lan used his brain to call out a few cards and projected them onto the screen, he smiled and said, "Hello, my game id is Shan Xiaofeng. I have only made a set of decks to play in the arena. Please give me some advice."

The president of the Judgment whispered in his ear: "He is the newbie I told you who knows how to create original cards."

Nie Yuandao said to the president: "You go and do it first, I'll talk to him alone." The president looked at Team Nie with a serious face, then looked at the smiling boy, scratched his head, and turned around and left in confusion.

There were only two people left in the conference room. Nie Yuandao then stood up and walked to Shan Lan and asked in a low voice: "Xiao Lan, what are you doing here? Today is Wednesday, don't you have to attend class?"

Shan Lan smiled and said, "I'm here to apply for a job. I want to be a professional player. These are the cards I made."

Nie Yuandao frowned slightly: "Don't joke, how old are you? What professional player are you?"

Shan Lan raised her head, looked at him seriously, and said word by word: "I am young, which does not mean that I am ignorant. Before drawing a conclusion, can you first look at the cards I designed? See if I have the talent and potential to be a professional player? Does the captain of the decent judgment need any factual basis when evaluating an applicant?"

Nie Yuan said: "..."

After not seeing each other for a few years, the cute little child in my memory actually turned into a clever boy in front of me.

The boy's height has reached his shoulders, and his tone is neither humble nor arrogant when he speaks, but his eyes are as clear and bright as the children in his memory. When he smiles, he will bend into the shape of a crescent moon, which makes people feel particularly friendly.

Nie Yuandao turned around and looked at the cards and said bluntly: "Are you talking about these original cards? In my opinion, the skill design of these cards is flashy. When you really don't even have skills released, you will be killed by your opponent. Your understanding of card design has just begun. Do you think you can play in a professional league by making a few cards? Do you think being a professional player is that simple?"

Nie Yuandao's few replies made Shan Lan's cheeks flush, but he still said unconvincedly: "But, I have reached the qualifying star card master level with this deck."

"Star Card Master is just the entry threshold for professional players, not the only condition." The man said lightly: "Come with me."

Shan Lan obediently followed Nie Yuandao to the training room next door. Nie Yuandao pointed to two seats casually and asked Shan Lan to sit on and log in to the game. He built a free arena in the game and added Shan Lan to fight him.

Random map, bright card mode.

Shan Lan fought very seriously, but in less than 3 minutes he was defeated by Nie Yuandao - his bird deck could not stop Nie Yuandao's beast's surprise attack and was defeated directly from the front!

Losing a game in less than 3 minutes, Shan Lan stuttered: "I, I made a mistake in operation just now, come again."

Nie Yuandao continued to play the second game expressionlessly.

This time it ended faster than the first game, and it defeated Shan Lan's deck with two and a half points.

Shan Lan murmured in a low voice: "I've just been distracted, come back."

The third game ended in two minutes, the fourth game, the fifth game...

After defeating Shan Lan in ten consecutive games, Nie Yuandao took off his helmet and raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you going to make any excuses?"

Shan Lan blushed, lowered her head and didn't speak, looking very aggrieved.

Nie Yuandao did not show mercy to Shan Lan. He just wanted to teach Shan Lan a lesson and let Xiao Lan know that being a professional player is not that simple, and that this unrealistic idea should be given up as soon as possible.

In recent years, he has not met Shan Lan many times, but he often hears his mother mentioning that Xiao Lan from the next door has very good grades and skipped grades twice in a row in elementary school. Now he has been admitted to the best high school. Shan Lan is still young, and Nie Yuandao did this to make Shan Lan completely awake and not go the wrong way because of a hot mind.

Unexpectedly, Shan Lan looked very obedient but had a very stubborn temper. After being abused by Nie Yuandao for ten consecutive games, he not only did not give up, but instead walked to Nie Yuandao and said seriously: "You accept me as your apprentice and teach me how to play in the arena, okay?"

Nie Yuan said: "..."

Wait, you are so cruel that you have no power to fight back. Shouldn’t you be shattered and stay away from the Star Card Game from now on?

Why don’t you play according to common sense?

Shan Lan looked up at Nie Yuandao with a sincere look: "I know the cards I made are not perfect enough, so I need the guidance of professional players. How to modify the design of these cards? Why don't you teach me, right?"

Nie Yuandao pressed his temple with a headache: "Xiao Lan, stop making trouble."

"I'm serious." Shan Lan looked at him intently and said word by word: "I have been paying attention to your game. This time I came to the ruling interview to recognize you as a master and learn how to make cards. I still have a lot of materials to make cards, but no one is guiding me, and I don't know if my direction is right. You can just accept me as an apprentice, okay?"

Nie Yuan said: "..."

The boy's expression was extremely serious, and he looked at his own eyes full of admiration and trust.

Nie Yuandao had never encountered such a difficult thing. He really couldn't agree to Shangshan Lan's eyes, and he couldn't bear to refuse.

When he was a child, Shan Lan always liked to follow him behind his butt and seriously became a small follower. Shan Lan treated him as an idol, but it would be a bit over with him to play in the professional league. He was not good at explaining to Shan Lan's parents. If Shan Lan could not achieve good results after becoming a professional player, wouldn't this delay?

Nie Yuandao was silent for a moment and asked in a low voice: "What grade are you in this year?"

Shan Lan said: "I'm in my second year of high school."

Nie Yuandao thought for a while and said, "You are still young now, so you can't be too hasty when making decisions. When you finish the college entrance examination, if you still want to be a professional player and can pass the newcomer test of the ruling, I will accept you as an apprentice and teach you well."

Shan Lan's eyes were full of disappointment: "Why have to wait for a year?"

Nie Yuandao looked at the boy and said seriously: "Xiao Lan, I hope you can think clearly about the path you will take in the future and not leave any regrets, do you understand?"

When Shan Lan heard this, a smile immediately appeared on her face: "I understand!"

My brother is still as reliable as he remembers. I gave him a year to think about it carefully and not make wrong decisions impulsively. This is a manifestation of responsibility for him.

Shan Lan is not in a hurry. He is only sixteen years old now. In the next year, in addition to reviewing the exam, he can continue to organize materials and make cards.

——Only by making full preparations, he is qualified to truly stand by Nie Yuandao’s side.

**

In the next few days, Shan Lan did not contact herself anymore.

Nie Yuandao thought Shan Lan had started to ruling to watch the fun, and would give up her plan to be a professional player once the popularity passed. Unexpectedly, Shan Lan came to her again on the weekend.

The president told Nie Yuan: "Team Nie, the middle school student who came to the interview last time was waiting for you in the office."

Nie Yuandao quickly walked to the office and opened the door. He saw Shan Lan sitting at the table in a clean school uniform, as if waiting for a teacher to speak. After seeing Nie Yuandao, the boy's eyes lit up suddenly. He immediately ran to Nie Yuandao and said with a smile: "Brother, I have modified the data of this batch of cards. Do you have time? Please help me see."

Nie Yuandao had no choice but to take him to the training room next door.

It happened that today was the day of the ruling training. There were many players in the training room. Seeing a middle school student following Team Nie, everyone was confused. Nie Yuandao took him to the corner to sit down and opened the battle ring. Everyone immediately ran to the ring to watch curiously.

Shan Lan's card adjusted his skills and data, but he still survived for 3 minutes in Nie Yuandao's hands.

Nie Yuandao brutalized Shanlan and 10 rounds of abuse. The teammates around him chatted privately about gossip: "Is it the middle school student who came to interview last time? Come again today!" "I was abused by Nie Shen for ten rounds, and it is probably going to leave a psychological shadow." "Nie Shen is really, you can't take a little light when dealing with the tender newcomer..."

After ten consecutive kneeling again, Shan Lan took off her helmet and said, "You are very awesome."

Nie Yuandao asked: "Do you know why you can't beat me?"

Shan Lan answered frankly: "My card design has problems, the skills connection is not close enough, and the experience, awareness and reaction speed of playing arena are not as good as you. The gap is too big. I will still lose if I play ten games."

The boy wearing a school uniform looked serious, just like answering a teacher’s question in class.

Nie Yuandao glanced at him and said, "When you designed the cards, were you imitating me?"

Shan Lan's face turned slightly red, but she answered with confidence: "It's normal for fans to imitate their idols."

Nie Yuandao immediately asked: "Can the design ideas of birds in the sky and beasts in the jungle be the same? My fire beast card focuses on explosive power, and your birds also have critical strikes. So what's the difference between letting them fly in the air and lying on the ground?"

Shan Lan stayed in place.

He didn't think too much about designing cards, because Nie Yuandao's beast cards had already become his own style at that time, and he would involuntarily imitate this master player in terms of data and skills design.

At this time, Nie Yuandao's question was like a basin of cold water, which made Shan Lan wake up instantly - if the design ideas of flying animals and ground animals are the same, what is the meaning of letting them fly into the sky? Just to look good?

Seeing Shanlan thinking, Nie Yuandao continued to remind: "Flying Bird Cards are not suitable for making burst cards. You can try to stack data on the movement speed, give Feird Cards the highest flexibility, and then rely on a cool-free normal attack to deal damage. As long as your Feird Cards are not killed, they can continuously output."

Shan Lan's eyes lit up, and she stood up excitedly and said, "I understand, thank you Nie Shen!"

He carried his schoolbag and disappeared without a trace in a blink of an eye. Only the team members in the room looked at each other - what was this guy doing? Nie Shen was really patient, playing the arena with him, and also instructed him how to make cards?

A brave newcomer asked curiously: "Captain Nie, who is this person?"

Nie Yuandao said lightly: "My brother."

Everyone suddenly realized that it was my younger brother, no wonder Nie Shen was so patient with him.

**

A week later, Shan Lan came to the Judgment Club again.

Still wearing school uniform and carrying a schoolbag, the young boy stood at the door of the Judgment Club. Many people who ruled recognized him and took the initiative to open the door for him, asking him to go directly to the training room to find Nie Yuandao.

Shan Lan changed all his seven card designs. The bursting ultimate move that was originally cooled for more than 30 seconds was changed to a continuous normal attack that did not require cooling. The damage caused by a single attack was very low and the ability to output continuously was extremely strong.

In terms of data, he piled the movement speed of the flying cards to the highest value, and the modified seven flying cards were extremely flexible in actual combat. Nie Yuandao also found that Xiaolan's cards were much harder to kill than last week.

This time, Shan Lan was in Nie Yuandao's hands and persisted for five minutes before being wiped out.

Although she still knelt for ten rounds, Shanlan's face was full of energy. He took off his helmet and said with a smile: "After I modified the card skills, I feel that it's much easier to operate. Do you think there are any other things that need to be adjusted?"

Nie Yuandao listed his cards one by one and marked several places that needed to be modified.

Shan Lan carefully recorded it and left with satisfaction with her schoolbag. A week later, Shan Lan, who appeared again, had adjusted the first deck to perfection, and made three new cards to show Nie Yuandao.

The newcomers in the training room were shocked - they never expected that the little guy's talent was so high!

The manager of the ruling heard about Shan Lan and privately found Nie Yuan and said, "It is rare to see such a talented newcomer. Why not sign him in advance and let him be the trainee of our ruling?"

Nie Yuandao's answer was: "No hurry."

He is not in a hurry, the manager is in a hurry! If such a genius is poached by another club, wouldn’t it be a big loss?

Nie Yuandao said calmly: "Shan Lan will not go to other clubs, you can rest assured of this."

Because Shan Lan is his number one follower.

***

Since then, Shan Lan will come to the club to report on time every weekend, regardless of the weather.
