Fang Xiang

This is both a work of science fiction and an exploration of the meaning of life, love, literature and art. Brainpower is no longer the main ingredient for being human in this far distant future world.  Spirituality, physical balance, and diligence all come together as integrity for Chen Mu, the Card Apprentice.  The cards which Chen Mu masters in his own scrappy way, distill all the powers of the cosmos –  human and nonhuman –  into something that is not a book, not technology, and neither art nor magic, but is these and more.  Learn about these strange cards, which can embody everything you might imagine for the future of technology, but also a future beyond technology which promotes the best, and sometimes the worst, from mankind’s past.

The Card Apprentice

An enormous team that consisted of about 2000 card artisans escorting over 300 transport shuttles, was flying slowly in the air. These shuttles were not ordinary transport shuttles. They were specifically designed to carry tremendous amount of weight. The amount of cargos they were carrying was enormous.

"The separator was a real pity", said Xi Ping sadly.

"Boss really did put in a lot of effort in manufacturing them."

All the separators were completely destroyed, not even scraps were left. All the cards inside them had been removed. All the buildings at the base were destroyed completely without a trace. Not a single Starfish Fort was left unscathed. In addition, even the small igloos were all destroyed. There was nothing left but ruins.

"Out with the old, in with the new", said Bogner casually while opening up his sleepy eyes.
