Free Web NovelChapter 1170: Chapter 451 Wooden Stakes Array_2
Only two skill releases were needed to take out all the Wooden Stake Men. freewebnøvel.com
Not to mention the Wooden Stake Men, even the 0 Points Seekblades and A-40 would take damage if they could be hit.
Moreover, the cleaning up skill was sustainable, it was a Wisdom Card with the ability to regen.
Seeing this card, Ree Shil breathed a sigh of relief.
Now that the other party’s King Card had been revealed, the following battle would be much easier for him.
In the current situation, deploying the Wooden Stake Array was actually a blatant strategy.
It forced the opponent to choose to face one of the tactics.
Choose Dragon Flag Master, or Higan Fairy, or something else.
Then situations like the current one would emerge, where Snow Charm actively sought change and revealed a countermeasure King Card like the Triple Six Degree Hooligan.
And so, a new round began.
Ree Shil did have Higan Fairy, but he didn’t play it.
Because playing Higan Fairy, he wasn’t sure if it could be revealed immediately.
Plus, even if it was revealed, it wouldn’t be very useful.
The biggest reason was that it couldn’t revive the Five Claws Golden Dragon.
Now the spot for Sneak Attack Master was occupied by Wooden Stake Man, and if the Wooden Stake Man wasn’t cleared, Sneak Attack Master couldn’t be revived.
Taking advantage of the time the other party was clearing the Wooden Stake Men, Seekblade hurried to deal DPS.
Snow Charm was also quite vigilant, choosing [Defense] for both her outer cards.
Finally, after all the Wooden Stake Men were cleared, Ree Shil’s King Card was revealed.
To counter Black Frog King, even though there were no more Wooden Stake Men on the field,
He thought the Dragon Flag Master was still the most appropriate.
Because the Dragon Flag Master was a Kung Fu Card Set, it could receive healing from Martial Woods.
Then it could also provide itself with 10 points of damage reduction, to counter the multiple attacks from Black Frog King.
In the end, there were still Wooden Stake Men every round, and its Dragon Martial Wind might still have a chance to take effect.
And this could also form a clamp.
If the other party did not clear the Wooden Stake Men, and their numbers accumulated, it could directly decide the outcome of the battle.
With such an appropriate King Card, it would be hard not to win.
However, the strength of the opposite side was also very high, so in the end, Ree Shil won by a slim one round advantage.
The so-called one round advantage meant that he defeated the opponent’s King Card one round earlier than the opponent defeated his.
The matchup between Ree Shil and Snow Charm could be described as a clash of the strong.
Hunchback Woman: [I... don’t even know what to say.
Contestant 1 Henry Thompson’s Wooden Stake Array layout, when did it start exactly?]
Museum Director Phoenix: [I think it started from the moment he took down Hidden Dragon, and then he started planning it.
But the specific implementation should have started when he took the opportunity to take down Rash Berserker.]
Hunchback Woman: [So from that moment, had he already decided on a series of steps?]
Museum Director Phoenix: [Perhaps he had already decided when he first saw the opponent’s initial Reveal Card, that’s a blatant tactical move.]
In any case, this round was won by Ree Shil.
But winning does not mean the end of this round.
After the battle ended and the barrier faded, he saw that there were not many players left on the stage.
There happened to be a player who was left out, and he directly faced them.
Without realizing it, he ran straight into the line of fire.
He encountered the 3rd best from Berserk Representative Team, who had concocted a highly characteristic set of tactics.
It started with a strong offense of 3, and it was an Attack with [Seal].
False Saint and Sneak Attack Master were both Balanced Card sets, all passive terms.
One of the effects they feared the most was [Seal].
Then the opponent had 3 cards with 3 [Seal]s, directly granting 1 [Seal] per card.
This left False Saint and Sneak Attack Master completely helpless.
False Saint couldn’t transform into Stone Monkey, and Sneak Attack Master was denied the initiative and the ability to [Silence].
Then [Seal] being T2, could also offset the Five Claws Golden Dragon, not fearing its control at all.
In the end, the frontline card battle concluded with a clear advantage for the opponent.
Ree Shill knew that even with Kung Fu Sheep God, there was no chance of winning, so he simply gave up.
In the end, in this round, he individually only secured the 4th slot in the rankings.
The 4th slot in the rankings could not help Balance Representative Team obtain a good name.
Because the 1st and 3rd slots were taken by Berserk Representative Team, by relying on these two advanced rankings, added to the decent performance of their other team members, Berserk Representative Team ultimately secured 1st place in this round.
And with the best result being only the 4th slot, and other team members also performing average, Balance Representative Team could only take 3rd place.
Apart from Ree Shil, Snow Charm also secured the excellent result of 6th slot this time around.
That served as a compensation for the embarrassment of eliminating one of his teammates right at the beginning.
After this round, his reputation as a Civil War God became even more resounding.
In this round, the third place requires the elimination of 3 players, which is still acceptable for the Balanced Representative Team with the most members.
The most unfortunate team was the Listening to the Wind Representative Team.
Last place, 6 members eliminated.
This team, which was among the top three in the first half of the competition, has now fallen to the bottom after this massive elimination.
The up-and-coming Berserk Representative Team is rising, attempting to challenge the position of Balance and Wisdom.
This kind of situation happens from time to time in previous competitions, proving that anything is possible at the Card Table.
Even Ree Shil, the great villain of this session, couldn’t achieve 100%.
The round ended and the rest period came again.
This rest period was relatively long, allowing for a lot of arrangements to be made.
First off, Ree Shil, who was eager to challenge the Wind Messenger again, lost no time in seeking him out.
Still, it was frustrating, as after using up 3 opportunities, he never even got through the threshold of the last level.
So far, he believed it was still a matter of accumulation.
He had not yet seen all the levels in the [Martial Woods Trial], so his strategizing wasn’t very precise.
Although different in form, the principle was like the one with the Breakthrough Envoy.
As long as he spent enough time on trial and error, persistently working on it, he would eventually make it through.
After failing with the Wind Messenger, Ree Shil went back to Blue Star for a quick look.
Nothing special happened there, and it was not yet ripe for action, so he quickly returned.
Invited by the Mossy Mushrooms and company, he went to the Instance for a quick run.
Everyone was basically the same: Mossy Mushroom still as timid, Straw Man as insane as ever, and Andrew Hill hadn’t even taken off the Doll costume.
Oh, there was also the Slame—eliminated so swiftly that Ree Shil almost forgot it participated.
Running Instances with friends counted as relaxation.
After relaxing, Ree Shil entered the Buffer Zone.
He hadn’t forgotten his grand plan to farm points.
Earn enough points, exchange for Potions.
Yet, upon entering, he found the situation seemed a bit troubling.
Hum!
"You’re finally back!"
Just as he landed, Creaky Bones approached him.
"What are you doing here?"
Ree Shil’s gaze, however, was first drawn to the lump of Slime Creature beside him.
The Slime Creature is a vessel for Divine Deity’s consciousness.
Depending on the Divine Deity’s characteristics, these Slime Creatures usually exhibit different traits when possessed.
But the Slime Creature in front of him was quite ordinary, nothing special about it, just a mound of green transparent gel.
The only eye-catching thing about it was its big, bright eyes.
The eyes were large, but not naive.
The light flickering within them was rather cunning.
Wasn’t this the familiar comrade he had once fought alongside, the Cunning God, who had sold him the Right Heart Divine Deity Cards?
"Why shouldn’t I be here? I was here all along, boop."
The Cunning God blinked.
"Oh? Another Divine Deity from the Red Rock Council; it couldn’t have been you, could it?"
Ree Shil pieced it together.
"Enough of that, now’s not the time to reminisce."
Creaky Bones cut in to interrupt.
"Tell me, what’s going on?"
Ree Shil asked as he sat down.
"With you gone for so long, our influence is about to be wiped out."
Creaky Bones’ face, though only a bony framework, was suffused with an air of wry amusement.
"Oh, is that so?"
Ree Shil didn’t seem too concerned until he glanced at the Panel and noticed a sharp decline in his score income.
"Which naughty little whelp dares to be so reckless?"
He slapped the chair.
