282: Two choices
Each one would have tens of billions of health points stacked onto it. This would be enough to provide him with an indestructible line of defense on the battlefield of the College Entrance Examination.
They could even become a piece of Flesh Armor with no blind spots, protecting every part of his body.
No matter how strong the enemy was... they could hold out until Lin Yang's twenty Multiplication Cards were activated!
It was feasible!
The corners of Lin Yu's mouth curled up slightly. He needed a quiet environment where he wouldn't be disturbed.
He slowly stood up and modified all the arrangements in his room.
He was about to start working!
Raising his right hand, his fingertips began to dance.
Cards manifested one after another in his hand.
Those were the cards named Growth, which would be the main theme of his next two days.
He needed to concentrate his mind and use Stacking to apply every Growth card to each summon in the most meticulous way.
This process required extreme focus.
Lin Yu took a deep breath and began to activate his core ability.
The power of the Myriad Card Creator surged within his body.
Compared to the time spent grinding attributes, the time taken for summon creation was negligible.
To maximize the time benefit, Lin Yang didn't plan to add any new summons this time; he would just use the Blood Packs!
It was familiar and fast.
The outline of the first summon slowly condensed before him.
It was a Small Bat, black and inconspicuous.
Lin Yu tapped with his fingertip, and the light of the Growth card instantly sank into the bat's body.
Once.
Twice.
Three times.
His Spiritual Power poured out like a tide, precisely controlling every instance of Stacking.
Time seemed to blur at this moment.
In the room, only the slight humming of the cards remained.
Lin Yu's gaze was calm and focused as he watched the Small Bat's health points climb frantically at a speed invisible to the naked eye.
He had already begun his assembly line operation.
The first summon was quickly completed.
He put it away, took out the next set of materials for Card Creation, and immediately, the phantom of a second bat began to condense.
Lin Yu's movements didn't pause for a second.
He was like a never-stopping machine, immersed in this monotonous yet efficient manufacturing process.
Outside the window, the night grew deeper.
In the room, the light of the cards continued to flicker incessantly.
New summons were born one by one.
They would become his most solid support on the road to the College Entrance Examination.
There was no fatigue in Lin Yu's eyes, only a nearly paranoid calm.
He watched the tenth bat, which was about to be completed, as the light finally sank in.
The outline of the eleventh bat quickly condensed before Lin Yu. He tapped his finger, and the light of the Growth card merged in once more. This process had already been repeated ten times. Each time consumed a huge amount of Spiritual Power.
He had entered a state of self-transcendence. Time seemed to have lost its meaning. In the room, there was only the slight humming of cards. His movements were mechanical and precise.
Black Small Bats, tiny and inconspicuous, were being endowed with staggering vitality. Lin Yu watched them emerge in various corners of the room.
They were densely packed yet did not interfere with each other. Each one was like a miniature reservoir of vitality. They were Lin Yu's "Blood Packs" and his most loyal line of defense.
The twelfth.
The thirteenth.
Lin Yu's Spiritual Power became more solid with each extraction. His mastery of the Stacking technique was also continuously deepening. He could feel the card information flowing through his fingertips more and more smoothly.
He controlled his Spiritual Power to infinitely compress the card information. It felt like folding countless sheets of paper into a single point. This process was tedious but efficient.
He suddenly paused.
The card at his fingertips trembled slightly.
A brand new idea exploded in his mind.
Stacking.
Could this technique really only be used to increase work efficiency?
Lin Yu's movements slowed down. He looked at the fifteenth bat that was about to be completed. The light of the card was still flickering.
He recalled the scenes of using Multiplication Cards before. Twenty cards had to be used one by one. Each use required time.
That was his startup delay.
When facing top-tier experts, this startup delay was a fatal weakness. Even just a fraction of a second could determine victory or defeat.
What if... what if Stacking could also be used in battle?
Lin Yu's heart gave a sudden thud.
He felt like he had grasped something.
An overlooked key point.
Stacking was vertical compression. It was the infinite overlapping of tens of thousands of pieces of card information at the same coordinate point. This was what allowed him to stuff astronomical amounts of Potions into a tiny Storage Ring.
So, what about cards used in battle?
Multiplication Cards.
Lin Yu's mind raced.
Previously, he could only instant-cast one card. The second, the third... all required a tiny time interval.
If he could use the Stacking method to compress the information of multiple Multiplication Cards into a single "point."
And then, instantly release that "point."
Wouldn't that mean he could instantly release the effects of multiple Multiplication Cards without any startup delay?
This thought made Lin Yu's heart burn with excitement.
He felt his breathing become rapid.
If successful, he could instant-cast the effects of five Multiplication Cards without any startup delay.
Five Multiplication Cards.
That meant a thirty-two-fold increase in damage.
And it would be instant.
This was worlds apart from his previous method of using them one by one to stack the effect twenty times.
The overall startup delay would also be significantly reduced.
This was a qualitative leap.
Lin Yu stopped his movements. The light of the bat that was about to be completed dimmed. He couldn't be bothered with that now.
His thoughts were completely immersed in this brand new discovery.
This technique sounded simple, but it was extremely complex in practice.
It involved the meticulous application of Spiritual Power.
Technique.
Precise control of timing.
Every step required extreme focus.
If this technique could be used in tedious duplication, it could certainly be used in battle as well; it just needed some minor calculations and modifications... but he knew that once successful, it would completely revolutionize his combat mode.
His fatal weakness would be compensated for.
It might even be transformed into an advantage.
This was an unexpected pleasant surprise.
As expected, one should think more.
The corners of Lin Yu's mouth slowly curled up.
He looked at the densely packed Small Bats in the room. The creation of these Blood Packs was for the College Entrance Examination.
But this new discovery would give him an even stronger trump card during the College Entrance Examination.
However, it still felt a bit difficult.
This wasn't like researching the enhancement of Growth cards; he wasn't familiar with Growth cards yet, but he was very familiar with the Stacking technique!
This was a feasible, quantifiable gain!
In that case, it was worth the gamble!
This was exactly the kind of gamble a gambler like Lin Yu would choose!
