Free Web NovelChapter 328: Chapter 124: Watch Me Turn Things Around
Secretary Brown: What exactly is going on right now?
Secretary Brown looked towards Show Director, seeking an answer.
Card players each have their own strengths. Some excel in card-making by analyzing theories, some excel in real-time card face data calculations, some excel in Instance investigation and solving cases, and some excel in nothing special.
Mossy Mushroom: I suspect you’re talking about me.
As for Secretary Brown himself, he was better at PVE than PVP.
If given plenty of time for analysis, he could fully understand.
But now that the game is progressing too fast, he can’t grasp the ins and outs immediately. fгeewebnovёl.com
Show Director: Listen to me explain it all.
As the Show Director’s eyes seemed to have recovered, he started to exchange information with his gaze.
Show Director: First off, you might not remember, so let me give you a refresher on the knowledge of [Movement].
Let’s look at the priority of some common actions.
[First Aid] > [Defense] > [Buff/Debuff] > [Movement] > [Attack] > [Healing/Rescue]
Since the priority of [Movement] is higher than [Attack], there is now an issue of slot filling and substitution on the Card Table.
For filling slots, it means that if the Sword Dance Girl attacks the Black Cloud Elf, and it performs a horizontal [Movement] - note that it’s horizontal.
What happens?
The Sword Dance Girl’s attack will miss the Black Cloud Elf and hit the card in the column it was originally in.
As for substitution, it means that if the Sword Dance Girl attacks the Senior Holy Knight and the Black Cloud Elf performs a horizontal [Movement] to the column where the Senior Holy Knight is located.
Then the attack would be borne by the Black Cloud Elf.
Now let’s look at the situation Ree Shil was in before.
He only needed to attack the Black Cloud Elf two more times to kill it and complete the card face reversal.
But the question is, is it that simple?
In fact, he needs to face two scenarios.
Would the Black Cloud Elf move horizontally to the left?
If he attacked the Black Cloud Elf and it didn’t move horizontally to the left, that would be the natural outcome.
But what if he attacked the Black Cloud Elf and it moved horizontally to the left?
Then the Sword Dance Girl’s attack would target the opponent’s King Card!
If Spinach’s King Card is in this column, wouldn’t it be revealed prematurely?
When the time comes, Spinach’s 2 regular cards and 1 king card would first take out Ree Shil’s 2 regular cards, then face the remaining king card, leaving Ree Shil no doubt of losing.
Because Ree Shil cannot take that risk.
This is an open stratagem. Spinach’s layout leaves him no choice.
He can only continue to attack the Senior Holy Knight while achieving DPS and preventing the Black Cloud Elf from [Movement].
Looking at Spinach’s calm play now, it’s very likely that his King Card is on the right side, so he has no fear.
Show Director: So, how about it? Understood? Pass me the eye drops.
Secretary Brown handed over the eye drops, his mind filled with sudden realization.
So that’s how it is.
That is to say, Spinach’s unrevealed King Card is now effectively a protective charm for the Black Cloud Elf.
It makes Ree Shil hesitate to take action.
Looking at the current situation, the Floral Jade Deer only needs one more round to be taken down.
Meanwhile, the Senior Holy Knight needs two more rounds to be taken down, by that time...
As both sides exchanged glances, the Card Game continued.
This round, both sides continued to exchange normal attacks.
After one round, the card face situation is as follows:
[Empty Slot][Sacred Cavalry 2.5][Empty Slot]
[Empty Slot][Empty Slot][Dark Cloud 40]
VS
[Empty Slot][Empty Slot][Sword Dance Girl 85]
After another round, the card face situation is as follows: freewebnovёl.ƈom
[Empty Slot][Empty Slot][Empty Slot]
[Empty Slot][Empty Slot][Dark Cloud 40]
VS
[Empty Slot][Empty Slot][Sword Dance Girl 50]
Unexpectedly, both sides have reached such a balanced state.
Both are left with only one regular card, and only a 10-point difference in Health Points.
A new round begins, Ree Shil looks at Spinach, and Spinach looks at Ree Shil.
Unfortunately, he saw no information in those eyes; they were as calm as water.
Of course, he didn’t reveal any emotional fluctuations either.
"..."
Show Director stared at the situation, clenching his fists secretly.
Because she knew that the next round would be extremely crucial.
Now the Card Table appears unadorned, but in reality, it still hides the psychological war between the two sides.
Ree Shil needs to predict whether the other party will [Move].
If the other party doesn’t [Move], his [Attack] would benefit, and [Defense] or [Dancing Sword] would lose.
If he [Attacks], the other party loses health, and he can take down the Black Cloud Elf in the next round.
If he [Defends], no damage will be dealt to the other party, and he will be hit for free.
If he [Dancing Swords], it will be even worse, as he will lose more initiative and fault tolerance in the psychological war of the next round.
If the other party [Moves], his [Attack] will suffer, and [Defense] or [Dancing Sword] will benefit.
If he [Attacks], it will reveal the opponent’s King Card prematurely, eventually leading to his own King Card facing a 1V2 situation.
If he [Defends], he won’t reveal the opponent’s King Card prematurely, and the Black Cloud Elf won’t be able to move in the next round.
If he [Dancing Swords], his attack power will become 40 points in the next round, with a chance to take down the Black Cloud Elf in one hit.
As for Spinach’s side, he needs to predict whether the other party will [Attack].
Specific analysis is the opposite of Ree Shil’s side.
It can be said that now both card players’ thought processes counteract each other, which in terms of gaming is like Daniel Smith’s Rock-Paper-Scissors.
