In front of Charlie was a thick stack of cards.
In the iron box, these cards are delicately placed, with a stack in each of the four corners, and two cards are stacked in the middle. Because they were all facing Xia Li from the back, they couldn't see the content for a while, but the back of the card was exactly the same, full of geometric figures and various line patterns, a bit like a scene in a kaleidoscope.
"What is this?" Charlie looked at Angel in confusion. Is this thing only for magicians? How could she not know at all
Angel did not explain, but motioned for Charlie to take it out for herself.
Xia Li hesitated for a moment, and reached out her hand to touch one of the cards. The moment she touched it, the cards inside seemed to be activated, and all flew out of the iron box, lined up regularly. Rotate around Charlie.
Until then, Charlie finally saw the contents of the card.
Four different patterns, namely hearts, spades, diamonds and clubs, each pattern has thirteen cards, and each card is marked with a common number and pattern. At this time, these cards are all around Charlie at a uniform speed. rotate.
The only exception was that there were two cards in the box that didn't move. They were quietly placed in the middle of the box. Even though the pattern on the back was the same as the other cards, it somehow made Charlie feel that one was different from the other four. The solemnity of the color card.
Charlie still doesn't know what these cards are, but these cards give her a vague sense of intimacy, and they always seem to match her very well.
On the other side, Greya looked at these cards, and a faint light flashed in her eyes.
She always felt as if she had seen these cards somewhere.
At this time, Charlie didn't see the clue on the known fifty-two cards, so she set the target on the last two cards in the box.
As Charlie's fingers picked up one of the cards, an eerie laugh burst out.
With a flick of Charlie's fingertips, the card suddenly slipped out, followed by a burst of white mist in the center of the card. A clown covered in black and white, dressed in a funny costume embroidered with four patterns, appeared in a strange pose. in front of her.
At the moment when the clown appeared, everything around him became dark, as if he had come to a dark night without a light source.
Nothing could be seen, only the clown's weird and sharp laughter could be heard.
Before Xia Li didn't know what was going on, a hand suddenly reached out and took out the card floating in front of Xia Li.
When this hand touched the card, the clown who jumped out of the card surface returned to the card, and the surrounding darkness disappeared instantly, returning to the world of light again.
Charlie recovered from her trance, only to realize that the person holding the card was Gloria, who had been watching by the side.
At this time, Gloria was holding the card that jumped out of the black and white clown before, frowning and studying.
"This card seems to have appeared in... Sleepless City?" Gloria whispered softly, with a rare solemnity in her words.
Sleepless City? Xia Li hasn't reacted yet, is she referring to the fallen city of sleepless nights in Yongye Kingdom, or the city of sleepless nights that was forced to leave Yongye Kingdom to rebuild a new city
Charlie didn't know what she meant, but Angel knew what Gloria was talking about.
A monster clown card from the nightmare world, or a ghost card.
"Have you seen this card?" Angel asked curiously. The clown card was originally released by him in the Dark Demon City. Later, it is said that he followed the fox harp bearer and the frog aria to Yongye. Country, but Angel had not seen it in Sleepless City.
Greya shook her head: "I haven't seen it, but the candy house also has its own internal news channel. I know that a similar card has appeared in the City of Sleepless... Cards, but it seems to be much bigger than yours."
Greya carefully looked at the joker card, and she handed the card back to Charlie without seeing too many clues. Charlie was still a little overwhelmed with the card, and looked at Angel in doubt, hoping to get an answer from him.
Now that Angel has refined this deck of cards, there is naturally no reason to keep it secret. He did not sell the trick and said directly: "This is a deck of playing cards."
What are poker cards? It was the first time Charlie had heard of such an odd name. Although she had a vague sense of intimacy, would a magician really need such a prop? Also, what exactly does this deck of cards do
Although Xia Li didn't ask these questions, her eyes had already explained everything.
Angel thought for a while: "In a very distant place, although it is far away from the wizarding world, in the same way, the profession of magician has also developed. And playing cards are a kind of hand of magicians. Or a tool card."
"Magicians use playing cards to develop a series of magic tricks collectively known as card magic."
Although Xia Li heard about card magic for the first time, as a dedicated magician, she looked at the playing cards around her. These cards were full of numbers, patterns and patterns, and had a faint logical connection inside. From her perspective, she might be able to develop a series of wonderful magic.
Angel: "I can simply show you the magic of cards."
That said, but Angel didn't plan to go into battle in person. Instead, he tapped the table with his knuckles, and an illusion appeared around them.
This is a grand theater full of high-class atmosphere. On the stage stands a tall and straight man dressed as a magician. Under the stage is a group of nobles dressed as gentlemen. The air is full of red wine and extravagance.
A beam of bright lights hit the magician gentleman, attracting the attention of everyone present. I saw him tell a piece of dirty jokes that the commoners did not understand, but the nobles used it to warm up the scene. When the atmosphere was almost up, he took out a deck of playing cards and continued to talk jargon while shuffling the cards. with cut cards.
The layman looked confused, but Xia Li's eyes became brighter the more she looked, especially the magician's elegant shuffling action, which was full of fancy but still very elegant, so Xia Li couldn't help imitating with her bare hands.
This magician's speech, temperament and behavior, although not the same magician as Charlie, has its own inherent elegance. In particular, the induction of actions, the confusion of words, and various hints made Xia Li understand that if this person was a real person, he would definitely be a very well-known magician.
The magician finished shuffling the cards and walked off the stage.
The overhead lights have been following the magician, making everyone's eyes move.
The magician came to one of the tables under the stage. This table is the best viewing position, and the people in the seats are also dressed in the most luxurious clothes. I think they are the most honorable people in the entire theater.
The magician stopped in front of the people at the table, said a few words very funny, and then entered the main topic of performing magic.
