Chapter 610: Chapter 218: The Last Piece of the Puzzle for the Kung Fu Card Deck?
But after thinking it through, it didn’t seem so scary after all.
When facing a high-health Boss, the only strategy is to ensure high-healing, and to fight a long-term battle.
Unless you have special PVE cards, it’s impossible to take down a Boss card with thousands of health points within a few rounds.
Of course, that’s just Ree Shil’s thinking, since he had never seen or heard of such PVE cards.
So under such assumptions, sustaining the opposing damage with healing amounts greater than the received damage becomes the only standard.
Some Boss battles have special mechanisms, which put additional requirements in addition to high healing capacity.
For instance, in the battle against the "Food Eating Stone Beast", position was required. Without a well-distributed card deck, even high healings couldn’t assure victory.
But now, the special mechanism of this dragon in front of him was rather simple. The more types in the card deck, the stronger the attack.
First, Ree Shil did a quick mental calculation.
Now the attack power of the "Martial Arts Right Claw" was 60 points.
When attacking the "Weapon Master" in [Defense], it would cause 25 points of damage.
When attacking the "Blind Swordsman" in [Defense], it would cause 25/30 points of damage.
When attacking the "Martial Monkey", it would cause 50 points of damage.
The "Martial Arts Left Claw" had an attack power of 30 points and attacked 7 times.
When attacking the "Weapon Master" in [Defense], it would cause 10 x 7 = 70 points of damage.
When attacking the "Blind Swordsman" in [Defense], it would cause 70/105 points of damage.
When attacking the "Martial Monkey", it would cause 140 points of damage.
The "Martial Arts Dragon Head" had an attack power of 60 points, the same as the "Martial Arts Left Claw".
When attacking the "Weapon Master" in [Defense], it would cause 25 points of damage.
When attacking the "Blind Swordsman" in [Defense], it would cause 25/30 points of damage.
When attacking the "Martial Monkey", it would cause 50 points of damage.
So in the worst-case scenario, all the opposing attacks were dealt to the "Martial Monkey", causing 240 points of damage. freēwēbnovel.com
"Which means, my priority should be to eliminate the ’Martial Arts Right Claw’ - a major threat."
"Once that’s taken care of, the maximum output of the remaining two cards is 100 points."
"’Martial Woods’ + ’Floral Jade Deer’ has 60 points of healing, ’Tricky Hand Snake’ + ’Yoga Frog’ triggering ’Martial Woods’ has 10 points of healing."
"’Kung Fu Sheep Rabbit’ triggering ’Martial Woods’ has 5 points of healing."
"’Crow Man’ recovers 1.5 points of energy per round, which means every 2 rounds, it can ’take off’ any card, triggering ’Martial Woods’ for 5 points healing."
"In total, on average, my card deck can restore 77.5 points of healing each round."
"100 - 77.5 = 22.5, meaning each round I only lose 22.5 points of health."
"Damn it, I should have prepared an inscription capable of healing if I knew."
"But as long as I eliminate the ’Martial Arts Right Claw’, the game will stabilize, and I won’t need to worry too much."
So, after a series of calculations, Ree Shil began calculating how many rounds he would need to take down the "Martial Arts Right Claw".
Unfortunately, his card deck’s total health was 1100 points, and for both left and right claws it was 1000 points.
So, the left and right claws didn’t trigger the "Balance-Judgement★★": When an enemy with a higher health than the total health of the card deck appears, it loses 7% of its health right after entering the stage.
Only the dragon head got triggered, losing 700 points of health.
Firstly, the "Kung Fu Sheep Rabbit" could definitely [Double Strike] every round. Though it couldn’t make the opponent [Dizzy], it could still cause 55 + 55 points of damage.
The "Flag Skill Master" could cause 35 points of damage.
The "Tricky Hand Snake" could cause 15 + 15 damage and delay 1 round of 20 points of [Poisoned].
The "Crow Man" could cause 25 points of damage.
The "Sword Dancing Lady" could cause 35 points of damage.
The total damage would be 255 points.
You should know that this is merely the minimum damage per round.
It doesn’t take into account the "Sword Dancing Lady’s" [Encourage] effect, the "Crow Man’s" flight, and the additional [Poisoned] triggered by the "Crow Man" carrying the "Tricky Hand Snake".
That said, Ree Shil would only need 3~4 rounds to take out the "Martial Arts Right Claw".
Let’s assume it takes 4 rounds.
During these 4 rounds, subtracting his own healing per round, the opponent would cause 650 points of damage to his deck, which wouldn’t kill him instantly.
Also, don’t forget, his "Yoga Frog" has 3 points of energy remaining.
Just these 3 points of energy alone could provide 300 points of [Healing].
In addition to the average healing per round calculated earlier, after taking down the "Martial Arts Right Claw", his own comfortable health would not drop past half.
"Sure enough, Big Brother Messenger didn’t fool me."
After calculating all this, Ree Shil felt confident of winning and couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
So, half an hour later, to be conservative, he gradually refilled his deck’s health using a little bit of healing, before launching an attack.
But this, the third stage, was the final stage of the Boss.
"[Regrettably...I fell short...]"
"[I could not...touch The Great Path!]"
While regretful and unwilling, the Uncle Dragon Knight’s body began to shrink.
Buzz...
With the converging of the card table, he had turned back into the Dragon Head Man once more.
But since his clothing had been ripped apart, he somehow conjured up a Kung Fu Robe and put it on.
Frankly, because they were continuously engaged in a dialogue and due to the projection’s blurring effect, Ree Shil hadn’t seen clearly, or rather wasn’t paying attention.
But the moment the opponent turned back into a full-bodied Dragon Head Man, he was taken by surprise.
A dragon really is a dragon after all!
"[You are a powerful Tower Challenger]"
"[Your manipulation of the Power of Great Path has reached a rather high level]"
