Sorry, But I Never Rely On Luck When Playing Cards

Chapter 380: Chapter 141 Ree Shil in Desperate Situation_2

At that moment, everyone could see the emotion written all over Henry Thompson’s face: I may have revealed my King Card early, but I can still move – what’s your next move then, eh?

For a moment, Ree Shil even began to question whether he still had a chance of winning.

After some thought, his mouth slowly curled into a smile, and he began his turn. ƒreewebɳovel.com

（Huh? How can he still manage to smile?）

Henry Thompson caught this change, his brows furrowing in suspicion.

At the same time, he was on guard, could this young lad have more tricks up his sleeve?

However, in reality, Ree Shil didn’t have any more cards to play, he could only rely on improvisation with every coming situation.

After all, the cards hadn’t been fully revealed yet, it was too early to call it a dead-end game.

His smile was just a way to bluff, making the other party more wary – that couldn’t hurt right?

Hence the Action Phase arrived, and the cards on both sides began to move.

This round, Henry Thompson still followed the same pattern as the previous round.

The [Nocturnal Demon Leader] went first with its attack on the [Demon-eliminating Demon], and then was [Exiled].

The reason for choosing the [Nocturnal Demon Leader] to make the first move was out of concern for the opponent’s [Defense], hence the choice of a killing blow with saturated DPS.

A full 35 points of damage successfully brought the [Demon-eliminating Demon]’s health points down to 0.

Next was the [Tree of Demonic Arts], which cast the [Tree Nymph Curse], turning the [Demon-eliminating Demon] into a little pink pig.

Immediately, the demon’s attack power dropped from 40 points to a mere 8 points.

This was to prevent her from striking a counterattack, to deal high damage.

Then, the [Red Fire Jump] also attacked the [Demon-eliminating Demon], triggering [Spread] and dealing 10+5+2.5 points of damage.

2.5 points were due to the [Demon-Slaying Puppet]’s [Defense].

Indeed, Ree Shil didn’t have many defensive options this round.

The [Demon-eliminating Demon] was certain to die, the [Martial Fighting Monkey] couldn’t [Defend], and the opponent would undoubtedly prioritize focusing fire on the [Demon-Slaying Puppet].

So, this card had to take on the [Defense] role.

Luckily, the [Demon-eliminating Demon] remained this round, allowing her [Right Protector] ability to take effect.

So the combined efforts of [Red Fire Jump], [Snowball Monster], [Golden Behemoth Statue], and [Golden Demon Mother] inflicted a total of 2.5+7.5+27.5+10 = 47.5 points of damage on the [Demon-Slaying Puppet].

As for Ree Shil’s side.

Every card in his deck focused fire on the [Tree of Demonic Arts].

It was worth mentioning the [Demon-eliminating Demon]. Even though it had been turned into a little pig, its method of attack was rather pleasing.

It used its small yet chubby body to charge towards the opponent.

Originally, her attack power was 40 points, boosted to 50 due to the demon card enhancement.

After being weakened by 80%, her attack power was left at 10 points.

Therefore, the combined efforts of the [Kung Fu Sheep Rabbit], [Breaking Sword], [Martial Fighting Monkey], and [Demon-eliminating Demon] focusing fire on the [Tree of Demonic Arts] dealt a total of exactly 50+30+15+10 = 105 points of damage.

This card possesses the passive ability [Old Tree Rejuvenation], and if not immediately taken out, it can cause a lot of trouble. Plus, it could cast [Animal], significantly reducing the output ability of his own cards.

So at the end of the round, the layout was as follows:

[Empty Slot][King Jellyfish][Empty Slot]

[Red Fire][Behemoth][Covered Card -7.5]

[Snowball Monster][Night Demon 100][Empty Slot]

VS

[Fighting Monkey 90][Empty Slot][Demon Puppet 47.5]

[Sheep Rabbit][Breaking Balance][Set card]

Gazing at this layout, everyone on the outskirts of the barrier started discussing excitedly.

"Coach Shil is having a rough time out there."

"Well, there’s nothing he can do, the strength difference between their card decks is too great."

"Indeed, it’s only the end of the 3rd round and the Curator has revealed an A level card every round."

"The key point is revealing the King Card early."

"The next round, two [Little Demons] will be out, further increasing the Curator’s advantage."

It was obvious that everyone thought Ree Shil was in a losing battle.

Blue Skin remained silent too, as his thoughts were no different from the others.

The new unveiling phase arrived, first came the two [Night-stalker Demons], occupying the two vacant card positions.

[Yeehahaha~]x2

-10,-10

The moment they revealed their cards, they took 10 points of damage from the [Demon-Slaying Puppet].

However, their attack power was not to be underestimated because of the blessing of the [Golden Demon City].

[Night-stalker Demon]

Balance, 15 points, E-Rank

Attack 15+5,10/20

Shortly after, Henry Thompson revealed his last regular card.

[Ding Dong~]

The projection from his card was a dreadnought made of pure gold.

The dreadnought had Q-version features on it. Despite the angry expression, it still looked somewhat adorable.

The dreadnought also wore an armor-style hat on its head, holding a shield and a short sword.

This seemed to resemble some sort of knight.

[Golden Knight]

Listening to the Wind, 10 points, B-Rank

Attack 15, Health 82.5/100, Energy 0/3

[Stable - Passive]: When the Golden Knight’s Health Points drops to 0, gain a round of [Delay]

[Deep Stance - Passive]: When Golden Knight is attacked, damage -5

[Golden Holy Light -2 Point Energy]: Golden Knight releases 50 points of [Healing] on a target

[[Delay]: Does not accept any buff effects, will not withdraw]

Ree Shil initially thought that since his opponent only had 10 points left, he would reveal a garbage card.

But Henry managed to surprise him again - with such strong survivability on his side, he actually brought out a B-Rank, survival-based treatment card.

This was a strong 50 points worth of [Healing].

If this was another card player, this might just be the last straw that broke their psychological defense.

But not Ree Shil - he still felt like he had a fighting chance.

With a flick of his fingers.

Ding!

[Demon, Slay!]
