Free Web NovelChapter 319: Chapter 121: Warming Up to the End
From the previous Follower card PK, Spinach had already figured it out.
The opponent was a new card player.
The Follower cards he played kept changing, none were very strong, and his technique was quite rusty.
Furthermore, the progress of "Way of Balance" only being at "Second Pass Nine" confirmed Spinach’s guess.
Anyone who hadn’t reached the "Third Gate" couldn’t be considered as one who truly crossed the threshold as a card player.
So Spinach thought that the reason Wembley Brown wanted him to compete with himself was just for making a favor.
They were all friends; a 1:1 score would look better.
Just consider it as swapping "Way of the Wind" for a "Way of Balance."
However, he must think highly of this new coach, so he took the opportunity to send a favor to himself while letting the other party practice a bit.
Each card player has their own style and routine, and even though card players with the same style have some subtle differences in certain aspects.
The more you play cards with different players, the faster you’ll progress.
Above was Spinach’s thinking.
In fact, he might have overestimated the hospitality of the fans of Balance.
Perhaps Secretary Brown himself going on stage might have a higher chance of winning than Ree Shil. frёewebnoѵēl.com
And letting Ree Shil go, indeed there was a bit of an idea to let him practice. freewebnovёl.ƈom
After all, involving such a stake card game, the psychological pressure forms differently for card players.
However, Show Director and Secretary Brown really wanted to grab two of his Instance Crystals for free.
Lettting Ree Shil go didn’t mean giving up.
At this time, both sides set up the card table and finished placing the cards.
"Wembley Brown, your tricks have already been figured out by me."
During the Unveiling Stage, Spinach looked at Secretary Brown and laughed.
When the wolf mouth laughed and revealed its canine teeth, it was supposed to be ferocious but because of its small size, it looked a little cute.
Since the other party wanted him to train the newcomer, of course, he would go all out, otherwise how could he achieve the effect.
Underestimate the enemy?
Nonexistent.
"I’m afraid this kid doesn’t have Giant-Counter cards or Cloud-Counter cards at all. Your act is too much."
After saying that, he used his mind power to reveal his first row cards.
"Woooohooo!"
The "Big Cloud" from the last game appeared once again.
A huge white cloud emerged from the card face.
"..."
For this, Ree Shil could only express a bit of helplessness.
He gave Secretary Brown a look: you see, I told you so.
And it seemed that Spinach was sure that the opponent didn’t have any cards to counterattack him, so he revealed a rather arrogant Scene Card.
"Shoo... bang!"
There were three red light arrays that directly shot down the three next-line cards above him.
-10, -10, -10
Three damage numbers appeared.
Then three glowing red arrays were engraved on the card positions.
This made Ree Shil feel a bit puzzled, are there really Scene Cards that can damage your own cards?
But when he saw the face of this Scene Card, he understood.
"Red Killing Array"
Scene, C
"Red Killing Sacrifice": Deal 10 points of "True Damage" to up to 3 Covered Cards in a row. Cannot stack if there are no Covered Cards
"Red Killing Array Start": After the sacrifice is completed, the Attack Power of the cards in that card grid will increase by 10.
(True Damage: Cannot be offset or reduced by any defensive means)
Originally this was a card that relied on sacrificing health to increase attack power.
In Ree Shil’s view, this sacrifice was absolutely worth it.
It’s only 10 points of blood for the next-line cards, no big deal when it’s gone.
But 10 points of Attack Power is real and sustainable.
Then, it was Ree Shil’s turn to reveal cards.
"Hehehehehe~" xN
First, he revealed the Scene Card, "Hundred Demons Night Walk"
Then, his fingers flicked in quick succession.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
"I’m So Ugly!"
"The Big Goose King!"
"Gulu Gaga!"
The first row cards he revealed were "Ugly Man" + "Big Goose King" + "Martial Fighting Monkey"
"Hahaha! As expected, you don’t have Giant-Counter and Cloud-Counter cards!"
Seeing these cards, Spinach laughed.
This Wembley Brown, was indeed trying to play tricks on him!
"Huh?... Tsk!"
But when he looked carefully, he found a card that was not very pleasing.
"Big Goose King"
Determination, 30 points, B
Attack 30, 100/100, 0/4
"Reckless-Passive": When the Big Goose King’s Attack exceeds the opponent’s card’s score, gain 1 Energy point
"Contempt-Passive": When the Big Goose King is attacked by a card with a lower score, take 10 less damage
"Red Palm Slaps Clear Waves-4 Points Energy": The Big Goose King pushes a row of cards to cause a "Collision" with the back row of cards. For every 2 cards involved in the collision, The Big Goose King recovers 1 energy point
("Collision": The party with less Health Points takes 20 points of damage)
This card had a chance to threaten his next-line cards.
And even if it was left alone, it could still gain enough energy to release skills through the 4 rounds of attacks.
Without considering blood loss, once it’s warmed up, it can continuously perform a 2-round, 1-skill cycle of "Collision" (recover 3 energy) + attack (recover 1 energy).
And this "Big Goose King" was Ree Shil’s preparation to deal with the opponent’s giant cards.
Giant cards usually have high scores and high Health Points.
It can trigger "Big Goose King" "Reckless" very well. While releasing "Red Palm Slaps Clear Waves", it can steadily deal damage to the rear row.
Ree Shil knew that as long as he let "The Big Goose King" maintain "Defense", it could launch "Red Palm Slaps Clear Waves" at least once before it exited.
The fact that the damage was dealt to the opponent’s next-line cards at the beginning was just an unexpected bonus.
