Chapter 4: The Famous General of Cards

  There are many treasures of Hot Blood Three Kingdoms in the warehouse that can immediately increase Qin Lan's experience, even allowing him to quickly reach the top level of 120.

  But what's the point of that? With his initial attributes, even if he reaches the top level, it's just the same as other famous generals' initial abilities... And this game only has less than 30 minutes of lifespan left, is there a difference between using and not using it?

  In the attribute panel, there are many more things. Qin Lan roughly looked at it and found that Hot Blooded Three Kingdoms had also incorporated some of the characteristic skills from Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Oh... And also the Three Kingdoms Heroes', he can go with his subordinates to learn, practice and cultivate to increase various attribute points. Moreover, as long as the friendship degree with famous generals is high, you can even learn their unique skills.

  Of course, now all of Qin Lan's skills are a dull gray... wait, at the very bottom it actually shows that he has three skills now!!

  Monarch's True Eye Technique, Qin Lan's unique innate passive skill, can instantly see through the strength and data of all living things.

  Monarch's Summoning Technique, an active skill that can quickly summon owned treasures or subordinates to one's side, consuming mental energy. The higher the attribute value of the summoned unit, the more mental energy is consumed.

  Monarch's Recall, active skill, can quickly return the belonging treasures or subordinates to their original city, consuming vitality, the higher the attribute value of the summoned unit, the higher the consumed vitality value.

  It was actually a variant of the monarch skill... The True Eye Technique is completely useless, this is obviously a system-built inspection function. The Summoning Technique skill is quite useful in the later stages. When there are many cities in the later stage and the distance between them is large, it takes four or five days to dispatch generals from one city to another, with this skill, it's much more convenient, but now, it's completely a useless skill.

  Qin Lan now only wants to play with the name card before time runs out, also as a last nostalgia for his past, so he upgraded the Zhaoxian Hall to level 5, which can accommodate five generals at the same time. Level 5 and above cost too much time, even if it's ten times faster, it would still take half a day.

  The General Card is a new gameplay mechanism introduced later in the game "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". All famous generals from the Three Kingdoms era have their abilities copied onto small cards. When used, these cards grant a pseudo-general with 60-90% of the original general's attributes. There are four types of General Cards: Blue ( lowest level), Yellow, Red, and Purple (highest level). The Blue Card has around 60% of the original general's attributes, while the Yellow, Red, and Purple Cards have 70%, 80%, and 90% respectively. This gameplay mechanism is designed to provide some consolation for players who are unable to obtain the actual famous generals. Multiple low-level cards can be combined to synthesize higher-level cards, but the success rate decreases as the card level increases.

  Of course, there is still a huge gap between the card and the real general. Firstly, the leadership attribute is not included in the percentage calculation, and the leadership of the general card is very low, at most only about 50% of that of the real general. Secondly, the real general can be upgraded to level 120, but the card general can only reach level 100. In addition, the real general has a favorability task with the player, when the favorability reaches 100%, the general's attributes can be increased by another 10%... The general card does not have favorability, and the opened general has no spirituality, and will only listen to commands and act accordingly, unable to surprise people. But the real general will have their own thoughts, and will often take the initiative to do some surprising things.

  However, the real named general, Qin Lan is absolutely impossible to capture or obtain within thirty minutes, even for those easiest-to-capture wild generals. Qin Lan requires completing affinity tasks first before there's a chance of surrendering, so now it can only play with the named general card.

  Qin Lan has three General Cards, one of which is given by the government for each level upgrade. Although there are many treasures in the Newbie Gift Pack, there is no General Card... The usage of General Card is very simple, just tap it open.

  Congratulations, you got Xiahou Yuan's yellow card!!

  Congratulations! You have won an Xu Rong Blue Card!!

  Congratulations! You have obtained a Tianfeng Huang Card!!

  Luckily, three cards were drawn and two of them turned out to be yellow cards. As for Xu Rong's blue card, it was completely useless... In the Zhaoxian Hall, he chose the recruitment menu and selected the use of the name card. Instantly, the three cards transformed into three men wearing linen robes, kneeling on one knee and saluting Shang Xing with a fist, "Greetings, my lord, your humble general is here to serve you."

  Huang Ka Xia Hou Yuan, Level 1, Leadership 35, Health 100, Energy 100, Domestic Policy 51, Bravery 87, Intelligence 68, Charm 30, Luck 26, Loyalty 100, Position None, Official Position None, Title None.

  Huang Ka Tian Feng, Level 1, Unification 21, Health 100, Spirit 100, Domestic Affairs 83, Bravery 27, Intelligence 88, Charm 52, Luck 21, Loyalty 100, Position None, Official Position None, Title None.

  Blue Card Xu Rong, Level 1, Unification 10, Physical Strength 100, Mental Strength 100, Domestic Affairs 33, Bravery 65, Intelligence 52, Charm 35, Luck 15, Loyalty 100, Position None, Official Position None, Title of Nobility None.

  Hiss...... how come everyone else's level 1 has 100 physical strength and 100 mental strength, but his is only 10 points? This is obviously too unfair!!

  Qin Lan set Huang Ka Tian Feng as the city guardian, responsible for internal affairs and resource construction. He set Huang Ka Xia Hou Xuan as the main general, responsible for conscription and training in the city. What about Xu Rong? Qin Lan carefully looked at the job function and decided to let him patrol the security. This function is not available in Hot Blood Three Kingdoms, it should be a function of Three Kingdoms.

  With the city guard and main general, Qin Lan didn't need to worry about the operation of the city. He strolled around the city, looking at the bustling construction everywhere, and felt a sense of accomplishment that he couldn't experience in the game before. Just as he was thinking of going to the tavern to see if there were any simple random tasks, he suddenly felt someone moving his body.

  It's the physical body in real life!!!!! The body he crossed over and occupied!!!!!

  This also shocked Qin Lan awake. Although the mutated Hot Blood Three Kingdoms looked good and had a great development advantage, after all, it was just a game!! The game couldn't help him cope with life after crossing over, nor could it give him food to eat. Even if he took down the capital city of Luoyang, what would be the point? Escapism was never a solution to problems, so he'd better hurry back and face reality!!

  The way to quit the game, Qin Lan had just seen it, he immediately rushed back to the government office, sat down in the city master's chair with one breath, and then a menu popped up in front of him, the last one was "quit". Choosing to quit, everything in front of Qin Lan gradually became blurred, and all the scenes slowly turned into a light screen that slowly disappeared. The WINDOWS desktop returned to Qin Lan's face again, about a foot away.

  The screen was transparent, so Qin Lan immediately saw two servants standing beside her, one of whom was muttering, "What bad luck, a good nap was ruined by this trash. Second Miss is also like that, such a waste just lying here, why do we have to come and carry him back?"

  Another one directly kicked Qin Lan's body with his foot, "No more nonsense, hurry up and carry this fool back to his room, Fang Fang is still waiting for me in the woodshed, damn it, I was only halfway done, and someone interrupted me, it's really annoying." As he spoke, he also kicked Qin Lan again.

  "Ah!" Qin Lan cried out in pain and immediately jumped up. "Bastard, you dare to kick me again?"
