Chapter 256: Can God Chu Actually Do Magic?!

Although the specific details of this mission are not yet known, Chu Chen already has a premonition that this will absolutely be a magnificent crime!

Thinking of this, he let out a long breath, then simply calmed his excited mood.

Just at this moment, the system's notification sound rang out again.

【Ding!】

【Mission items have been issued, please check them, Host!】

Mission items?

The next second, just as Chu Chen was feeling puzzled, a deck of playing cards and four Tarot Cards were already lying quietly in the system's inventory!

Upon seeing these two items, Chu Chen understood the system's intention at once, and without a word, he reached out into thin air and took these cards into his hand!

At this moment, the live stream camera happened to be focused on him.

Seeing this scene, all the viewers were stunned on the spot, and they sent barrage comments one after another:

【Holy crap, how did he do that?】

【Nani???】

【What's the situation?】

【Didn't see clearly, where did these playing cards come from!】

【Damn, that's cool!】

【Awesome!】

【Such fast hand speed!】

【After all, that single-for-twenty-years hand speed!】

This very casual act of producing cards from thin air instantly sparked countless discussions in the live stream room!

Many people did not see clearly how Chu Chen operated at all!

Even the ultra-sophisticated Micro Sky Eye did not capture the specific process of him changing the cards!

Just now, the moment people noticed his hands, the playing cards were already in them!

This scene directly shocked the hundreds of millions of viewers in front of their screens!

With their current understanding of magic, they simply had no way to comprehend this move of Chu Chen's!

Because the level of magic development here is simply too backward!

It is not just a little bit worse than Earth.

Those familiar magic tricks and magicians from his past life almost do not exist here, and even descriptions of magic in literary works are few and far between!

People only know the concept of magic, but the magic performances they see on a daily basis are all very low-level tricks; they have never seen high-level magic performances at all!

This move of producing cards from thin air, which was merely a basic skill for magicians in his past life, has become an unheard-of existence here, directly stunning all the viewers!

At this moment, the Logistics Team standing behind the glass also couldn't help but open their mouths wide after seeing this scene!

Especially the two female leads!

Amidst the shock, Ye Siyu frowned tightly and muttered to herself, "He... how did he do that?"

At the same time, Han Ruobing's face was also filled with shock!

Because the speed was too fast, she hadn't seen clearly how Chu Chen operated just now either!

When she realized what had happened after the fact, that deck of cards had already appeared in his palm, as if he had conjured them out of thin air; it was truly incredible!

The next second.

Just when everyone was completely baffled, Chu Chen had already started playing with Card Flourish using that deck of cards!

So-called Card Flourish is actually the fancy cutting and fancy shuffling in card magic.

In card magic performances, Card Flourish is often used as an opening act.

Common Card Flourish techniques include One-handed Cut, Two-handed Cut, Fan, Waterfall, etc.

Although these techniques are not difficult, they are very watchable and look extremely gorgeous and cool.

Because he had learned God-level Magic Talent and God-level Magic Technique, at this very moment, Chu Chen's Card Flourish skills had already reached a state of perfection!

Presented by the ultra-high-definition lens of the Micro Sky Eye, that deck of playing cards seemed to have a soul, constantly flipping up and down between his slender fingers!

One-handed Cut, Two-handed Cut, Fan, Waterfall, changing cards...

For a time, various Card Flourish techniques were performed by him in a very gorgeous manner, instantly arousing the interest of the viewers in the live stream room!

【Holy crap!】

【Who can tell me how he did that?】

【Too awesome, holy crap!】

【What a gorgeous technique!】

【No way? Can playing cards be played like this?】

【Looking at Chu Chen's operation, I feel like I'm a cripple!】

【Impressive, my brother!】

【Mom asked me why I'm kneeling to watch the live stream!】

The vast majority of card magic in this world consists of small tricks that require props to complete; there is almost no pure sleight of hand!

They had never even heard of such fluent Card Flourish like Chu Chen's!

When seeing this scene, all the viewers were stunned on the spot!

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they really wouldn't dare to believe that a person's fingers could be flexible to this degree!

At the same time, in another live stream room!

The new season of "The Art of Crime" was also in the midst of a heated live broadcast.

Right now, the scene that occurred in Participant 99 also shocked the host and the group of experts here!

The next second.

Watching the playing cards flip up and down between Chu Chen's fingers, Ma Fanshu said in disbelief, "His fingers are so nimble; he can actually make the playing cards flip smoothly on them? This is too incredible!"

There were a total of fifteen experts participating in this live broadcast, almost all of whom were elites from various walks of life, and among them was a top-tier magician from the Treasure Island, Liu Qian!

When he saw the Card Flourish techniques that Chu Chen was demonstrating in the live broadcast, he froze on the spot, his entire expression extremely complex!

He had never seen these shuffling techniques before.

But relying on his keen professional intuition, he still realized a very critical issue!

That was that this guy Chu Chen was very likely a magic expert!

Seeing this expression on Liu Qian, the director in the backstage immediately turned the camera to him!

At the same time, the host also noticed this scene and immediately asked, "Teacher Liu, what is wrong?"

Hearing this, Liu Qian slowly came back to his senses from his shock.

The next second, after calming his mood slightly, he said in a low, solemn voice, "It is truly unheard of..."

This sentence left Ma Fanshu even more confused.

"What did you say?"

"This guy should be shuffling, but the shuffling techniques he is using are unheard of... This kind of shuffling method requires a very high degree of flexibility in the finger joints; without decades of hard practice, one simply cannot do it at will. If I am not mistaken, he is very likely a magic expert..."

"A magic expert?" Ma Fanshu asked, puzzled.

"That's right..." Liu Qian replied.

Hearing this conversation between the two, the barrage in the live broadcast room exploded instantly!

One line after another soon swallowed the screen:

【What? A magic expert?】

【My god! Brother Chu is actually a magic expert too?】

【Is it real or fake?】

【It's a bit hard to believe!】

【Worthy of being a professional magician, truly hitting the nail on the head! I had already seen it!】

【Even a magician of Liu Qian's level hasn't seen this kind of shuffling technique from Brother Chen?】

【How did he do that!】

【First like this, then like that, then like this again, and like that again, and it's OK!】

Although Liu Qian in this world was also a top-tier magician, because the level of magic development was very backward, he had also never seen these Card Flourishes that Chu Chen was demonstrating.

But regardless, he was still a magician, and his intuition in this area was definitely sharper than that of an ordinary person!

When he saw the moment Chu Chen conjured a card out of thin air, he had already sensed something, he just wasn't sure yet.

But now he was very certain.

This guy was definitely a magic expert!

At the same time, inside the contestant preparation room!

While Chu Chen was expressionlessly playing with that deck of cards, the vast majority of the contestants had already left the preparation room and thrown themselves into the new round of the competition!

Only Chu Chen was still playing with that deck of cards on his own, seemingly planning something!

Seeing this, the barrage in the live broadcast room increased again:

【Others have already started acting, yet he is still here playing with that deck of cards!】

【Don't be anxious, let the bullets fly for a while!】

【Is Brother Chu brewing some big move again?】

【Very likely!】

【Really curious, where is he going to steal from this time!】

【Looking forward to it!】

【Go Brother Chu!】

【It's fine, it doesn't stop me from admiring Brother Chu's looks!】

【I absolutely love Brother Chen's looks!】

Soon.

As time passed.

The countdown in the contestant preparation room was about to hit zero!

But Chu Chen still had not made any moves, still sitting there, constantly fiddling with the playing cards in his hands, the speed getting faster and faster!

At this moment, the live broadcast camera switched frequently between his face and his hands!

At the same time, the hearts of countless viewers were also involuntarily rising and falling with this tense rhythm!

Seeing this scene, the members of the Logistics Team hiding behind the one-way glass frowned again!

From the start of the countdown until now, he had been fiddling with that deck of cards the whole time, without making any moves from beginning to end!

The more he was like this, the more anxious the hearts of these people in the Logistics Team became!

After a while, Ye Siyu said to Han Ruobing with a solemn expression:

"The countdown is about to hit zero; if he doesn't leave now, he might be directly eliminated... What on earth is this guy up to?"

Hearing this, Han Ruobing shook her head without taking her eyes off the screen.

She also didn't know what this guy was doing, but she was certain that Chu Chen would never just sit and wait for death!

The next second.

Just when everyone was looking forward to it, Chu Chen finally stood up slowly!

At the same time, the competition countdown had also reached the final ten seconds!

"10!"

"9!"

"8!"

The live broadcast feed switched back and forth, constantly alternating between him and the timer!

"7!"

"6!"

"5!"

"4!"

Very quickly.

When the countdown reached the final three seconds, the hearts of all the viewers couldn't help but hang in suspense, and all sorts of comments were frantically flooding the screen:

【Holy crap, what is this situation?】

【If he doesn't leave now, he's going to be eliminated!】

【?????】

【Good grief, what is God Chu doing?】

【Is this it?】

【Does anyone know what's going on?】

At this very moment, the live broadcast comments were filled with question marks!

Many people could not fathom Chu Chen's actions!

The next second, the countdown reached "3".

The live broadcast camera also cut to Chu Chen's face!

Seeing this, he raised the corners of his mouth slightly, leaving all the viewers with an intriguing smile!

And at this very moment, a magical thing suddenly happened!

Countless playing cards, like fluttering snowflakes, flew continuously from his palms, more and more, until they completely engulfed him!

Seeing this scene, the viewers were shocked once again!

But the even more magical thing was that, at the moment the playing cards fell, Chu Chen had silently disappeared from the contestant preparation room...
