Free Web NovelChapter 727: Chapter 257 Sword VS Chess
After both sides revealed their cards, it was now the Action Phase.
On Samuel Chess’ side:
The [Minister Chess Piece] gave the [Pawn Chess] in the middle a 30-point [First Aid].
The middle [Pawn Chess] chose [Defense].
The remaining two [Pawn Chess] attacked the defending [Female Thief], dealing 15 + 15 points of damage.
The [King Chess] attacked the defending [Female Thief], dealing 10 points of damage.
A total of 40 points of damage, 20 points of which were absorbed by the [Shield].
The [Minister Chess Piece] gave the middle [Pawn Chess] a 30-point [Healing].
On Ree Shil’s side:
The [Female Thief] chose [Defense].
[Sect Leader Frog] released a 20-point [Shield] on the [Female Thief]. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
[Male Thief] attacked the [Pawn Chess] on the left side, dealing 30 points of damage.
[Blind Swordsman] attacked the [Pawn Chess]on the left side, dealing 30 points of damage and recovering 1 Energy Point.
The [Golden Bell Messenger] sacrificed 40 Health Points, dealing 1 row of AOE damage. Since the opposite side had three cards with 10-point [Shield], and the middle [Pawn Chess] was defending, the attack only removed the [Shield] without causing any damage.
At the end of the second round, both sides had the following card faces:
[Heaven and Earth Chessboard]
points, 5 remaining cards 180 points
[Set card][General Chess Piece]0/5[Set card]

[Sect Leader][Set card][Set card]
points, 5 remaining cards 150 points
[Sword Soul Palace] (9/15)
Hunchback Woman: "This round, it seems like Contestant 2 has the advantage."
"Because the opponent’s attack hit the defense, while his attack didn’t hit the defense."
"And from his continuous operation of letting Golden Bell Messenger burn blood, I can see that his king card is indeed placed in the middle column."
Curator Phoenix: "Hmm, I agree with your viewpoint."
"In the following days, the injured Female Thief will surely make a desperate struggle, plus Blind Swordsman has accumulated 1 Energy Point."
"In the next round, Contestant 2 will have an explosive DPS."
"The lost health before has a high probability of being regained."
"Let’s see how well Contestant 1’s revealed chess pieces can handle."
The new round arrived, and this time it was Samuel Chess’s turn to reveal his cards.
[Hiss!!]
Accompanied by a sharp neigh, a round chess floated up with a fine horse on it. freёweɓnovel.com
[Horse Chess]
Balance, 30 points, A
Atk 30, 100/100
[Chess Piece - Passive]: Horse Chess must be placed in a fixed position to reveal the card
[Crooked Horse - Passive]: Horse Chess cannot attack targets in its column
[Sun-stepping Horse - Passive]: Horse Chess can jump over a blocked space to attack its target
[Bound Horse - Passive]: When Horse Chess is adjacent to another Horse Chess, Attack Power +10 & Maximum Health +10
Curator Phoenix: "Good card! This card is exactly what Contestant 1 needs right now."
"The opponent’s Female Thief and Golden Bell Messenger are both injured, and there’s at least one set card in the second row."
"Not only will it directly attack the opponent’s second-row set card this round to not waste its DPS,"
"It can also continuously threaten the opponent’s second-row cards, even the last row cards and even the king card in the following rounds."
Hunchback Woman: "No wonder Contestant 1 so confidently revealed his king card position in the first round."
"It seems he simply doesn’t worry about being broken through because he will break through the opponent even faster?"
Hunchback Woman’s analysis was quite reasonable.
Ree Shil, seeing this [Horse Chess], was immediately troubled.
This was because he could guess that the other next-line set card on the opposite side was very likely to be[Horse Chess].
Two[Horse Chess] cards, each occupying the left and right columns, would pose a significant threat to his middle column.
The previous plan to break through the opponent’s king card column as soon as possible seemed infeasible now.
But the only good news was that, after a little hesitation before, he did not choose to reveal the [Nameless Sword Spirit] behind the[Sect Leader Frog].
Instead, he chose to reveal the card in the middle column.
Ding!
[Buzz...clang!]
With a vibration in the air, a sword rang out.
A longsword made of energy flew out from the card face, sometimes overflowing with red light and sometimes shining with blue light.
[Breaking Balance Sword]
Breaking Force, 30 points, B
Atk 30, 100/100, 0/3
[Balance-Breaking Spirit - Passive]: When Breaking Balance Sword is attacked by a Balanced Card, damage -10
[Breaking Balance Attack - Passive]: When the Breaking Balance Sword deals damage to a Balanced Card, it is always[True Damage]
[Breaking Balance One Sword - 3 Energy Points]: The Breaking Balance Sword releases 30 points of sword energy damage to the target. For each Balanced revealed card on the field, an additional 5 points of damage is added.
（[True Damage]: Can’t be nullified or reduced by any defensive means）
After all, this is the Balance District, the value of the[Breaking Balance Sword] is quite high.
Not to mention the opponent’s first-row and second-row cards, counting two[Horse Chess], there are 6 Balanced Cards.
This doesn’t include Ree Shil’s own side.
Curator Phoenix: "Wow, this card!"
Hunchback Woman: "Wow, a balanced-breaking card? It’s so rare!"
Curator Phoenix: "And it’s not only attacking but also defending against balanced cards. The power of this card is just too high."
"A top-quality B-level card comparable to A-level or even surpassing regular A-level cards."
"Good card, good card!"
Naturally, a card that could make Curator Phoenix exclaim continuously was an absolutely good card.
And the audience on the field was naturally uproarious.
"Man, this is the best card I’ve seen in the past 9 days!"
