Sorry, But I Never Rely On Luck When Playing Cards

Chapter 374: Chapter 139: B-level Scene Card [Golden Demon City]_2

So it was time to set up their cards, and neither of them wasted much time.

Ree Shil had already decided on his card deck before coming.

As for Henry Thompson, he simply pulled out one of his commonly used decks without making any changes.

It’s not that he was underestimating his opponent. A Card Club Director wouldn’t make such a low-level mistake.

It was mainly because he had watched quite a few of Ree Shil’s card games and was quite familiar with his opponent’s deck, believing that his own deck could counter that well.

Would his opponent bring out Demon-counter cards just like the other competitors had against his own commonly used Demon cards?

Heh, that’d be overestimating the depth of a newcomer’s card deck.

Furthermore, even if it were true, so what?

It’s not like those competitors who carried one or two Demon-counter cards won.

Do they even know what it’s like to be overwhelmed by strength?

The idle talk ended at this point, and as the card game began, Henry Thompson let the staff let people in from outside.

His goal was obviously to show everyone how he would teach Ree Shil a lesson.

So, several coaches from Henry Thompson’s Gaming Hall entered, including Jason Hou and Blue Skin.

Buzz!

A golden light column shot out, and a transparent golden barrier was erected.

The card game officially began.

"The idle talk ends here."

"Since we’ve started the card game, I won’t hold back."

"I’m going to show you how foolish your decision to challenge my hall is."

Henry Thompson said as he lifted his scene card.

He slapped it loudly onto the card table.

Slap!

[Rumble...]

As the card face was revealed, a massive city illusion slowly rose.

"Impressive, your card."

Seeing the scale and sound, Ree Shil couldn’t help but praise.

Ignoring everything else, just the fact that this city was made entirely of gold was amazing.

[Golden Demon City]

Scene, B

[Gold Shelter]: Each round, gain 5 [Shield] for your side’s Demon cards / Gold cards.

[Gold Brilliance]: Grant a single Demon card/ Gold card on your side an attack power boost of 5 points for the current round.

[Gold Haven]: Each round, temporarily stow a Demon card/ Gold card you own, equivalent to [Exile].

([Shield]: Absorbs the corresponding amount of damage, does not enjoy any damage reduction, this shield is non-stackable)

([Exile]: Remove the target from the card game for one round, considered a temporary exit)

As soon as this card was played, the coaches on the outskirts of the barrier immediately started to flatter, even though Henry couldn’t hear them.

"Every time I see the Director’s card, I feel it’s so powerful."

"There aren’t many B-Class scene cards in our entire city."

"You guys haven’t heard how brave the Director was when he ventured into the Instance to get this card."

Even Blue Skin looked at the card with a frown.

Henry Thompson’s [Golden Demon City] was famous within their circle.

The [Gold Shelter] it provided had strong survivability, particularly against AOE cards, giving a great advantage.

Moreover, it refreshed the [Shield] every round.

If the opponent wanted to kill one of Henry Thompson’s cards within 3 rounds,

It would mean outputting 100+5+5+5 = 115 points of damage in those 3 rounds.

This was equivalent to the card having increased its health by a significant amount.

Then the [Gold Brilliance] seems to be just a 5-point attack boost.

But what if all six of the opponent’s regular cards gained this effect? Wouldn’t that amount to an extra 30 points of damage per round? That’s equivalent to the attack power of an average card.

As for the last [Gold Haven], it doesn’t even need mentioning.

[Exile] has two general effects.

The first is to temporarily remove an opponent’s Defense card, allowing direct attacks on the cards being protected behind it.

The second is to protect one’s own cards. freeweɓnovel.cøm

Under exit effects, things like [Taunt] and [Dizzy] won’t be effective.

Moreover, he heard that Henry Thompson even developed some special tactics for this purpose.

He believed that he would witness them soon.

"..."

At this time, Ree Shil looked a bit solemn after reading the card face inside the barrier.

He had only seen B-Class Scene cards in the real world from the Show Director and the Old Curator.

And their B-Class scene cards were entirely different from Henry Thompson’s.

"Don’t be surprised just yet. Look at the next few cards."

However, Henry Thompson didn’t give him much reaction time and directly revealed his first row card.

[It’s So Cold! Are You Cold Too?]

A blizzard came up on the card face, and a furry round little fellow sprung out from the wind and snow.

Its long, curly white fur looked incredibly soft, making people want to give it a squeeze.

Nothing else was visible, except for its large, round eyes.

Below it, a chunk of ice served as its skateboard.

[Snowball Monster]

Wisdom, 20 points, B

Attack 20, 80/80, 1/1

[Fragile Body-Passive]: Snowball Monster’s Health Points -20

[Cold Air Enters the Body-Passive]: Snowball Monster can inflict [Frozen] on a target for 1 round after continuously attacking it 3 times,

[Extreme Cold-1 Energy Point]: Snowball Monster breathes out a puff of Extreme Cold, causing the target to be [Frozen] for 1 round.

"This is troublesome."

Ree Shil didn’t expect that the first card the opponent revealed was a control card.

Moreover, unlike ordinary wisdom series cards, this card still had control power even after using its skill and depleting its energy.
