Sorry, But I Never Rely On Luck When Playing Cards

Chapter 728: Chapter 257 Sword VS Chess_2

"Indeed, including all the A level cards that have appeared so far, I think this one is the most powerful!"

"I’m drooling! It’s so mouth-watering!"

"Give me a card like this, and I would be willing to exchange it for my best friend’s lifespan of ten years!"

"I’ll offer 20 years!"

However, the card table inside the Blue Light Barrier was quiet, Ree Shil couldn’t hear any of the clamor.

"Great card, great card."

Seeing this card, Samuel Chess couldn’t help but show a look of both envy and dread.

After both sides have revealed their cards, the action round quickly arrived.

On Samuel Chess’s side.

Two [Pawn Chess Pieces] attacked [Female Thief], causing 30+30 points of damage.

The total damage was 60 points, which took her out.

[General Chess Piece] attacked the [Defense] [Blind Swordsman], causing 10 points of damage.

One [Pawn Chess Piece] attacked the [Defense] [Blind Swordsman], causing 15 points of damage.

[Horse Chess] attacked the [Defense] [Blind Swordsman], causing 15 points of damage.

[Minister Chess Piece] attacked the [Defense] [Blind Swordsman], causing 15 points of damage.

The total damage was 55 points.

Museum Director Phoenix: [It’s over, Contestant 1 Henry Thompson is being completely controlled by #2 Henry Thompson.]

Hunchback Woman: [I also noticed that, he must have been worried that the other party would use the Female Thief’s Shield + Defense to drag the game for another round.]

[If that’s the case, 60 points of damage will be needed to take her out.]

[Yet, Contestant 2 Henry didn’t take this action, causing him to waste his DPS.]

[Then, for the Blind Swordsman, he invested 110 points of DPS, wanting to take him out instantaneously.]

[The result was the opponent defending with the Blind Swordsman, not the Female Thief.]

Museum Director Phoenix: [It’s a good idea, but it was all guessed by the other party.]

[Actually, the best or rather the safest strategy would have been to let the Horse Chess attack the Set Card behind the Blind Swordsman that can’t defend.]

On Ree Shil’s side.

[Blind Swordsman] goes into [Defense mode].

[Golden Bell Messenger] self-inflicts 40 points of health damage, causing AOE Damage in 1 row. Since the three cards on the opposing side all have 10 points [Shield], only 10 points of damage were inflicted on the middle [Pawn Chess Piece].

At the same time, [Golden Bell Messenger] self-inflicts damage to exit, revealing the King Card to [Reveal Immediately].

[Female Thief] + [Male Thief] attacked the middle [Pawn Chess Piece], causing 35+35 points of damage.

[Sect Leader Frog] attacked the left [Pawn Chess Piece], causing 30 points of damage.

[Breaking Balance Sword] attacked the left [Pawn Chess Piece], causing 30 points of damage, removing it from the game.

Hunchback Woman: [It seems that Contestant 2 Henry is feeling pressured by the Horse Chess.]

[So he prioritized taking out the Pawn Chess on the left side.]

Museum Director Phoenix: [That’s right, however, I’m curious about which King Card he will reveal.]

After the end of the 3rd round, both sides’ cards were as follows:

[Heaven and Earth Chessboard]

points, remaining 4 cards of 140 points

[Set Card] [General Chess Piece] 1/5 [Set Card]

[Set Card] [Set Card] [Set Card]

[Horse Chess] [Minister Chess Piece] [Set Card]

[Empty Slot] [Pawn Chess 20] [Pawn Chess]

VS

[Empty Slot] [Empty Slot] [Blind Swordsman 45] 1/3

[Male Thief] [Breaking Balance Sword] [Set Card]

[Sect Leader] 3/3 [Set Card] [Set Card]

[Set Card] [Reveal Immediately] [Set Card]

points, remaining 4 cards of 120 points

[Sword Soul Palace] (15/15)

The energy of the scene card is full, but Ree Shil did not use [Sword Shaking Technique].

Because he felt the timing was not yet right, holding it back would even more make the opponent wary.

Hunchback Woman: [Hmm... It seems the situation on Contestant 2 Henry’s side is not optimistic.]

[The Blood Loss ratio is 255:180.]

[This gap is somewhat significant, I wonder if he can catch up.]

Museum Director Phoenix: [Mainly because the shield of the Chess Pawns every round is too restrictive for the Golden Bell Messenger.]

[Its AOE effect could not demonstrate its usefulness, and it couldn’t make up for the cost.]

At the onset of the new round, the replacement phase comes first.

This round, Ree Shil also replaced one card according to the situation on the card face.

Afterwards, both sides entered the card reveal phase.

However, in this card reveal phase, the first action that appeared surprisingly was not card revealing.

[Your subordinate shall take leave for now!]

Samuel Chess’s central [Pawn Chess Piece] suddenly turned back to kneel on one knee towards [King Chess Piece] and give a bow. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

Whoosh!

Then the projection was retracted, and the card face turned back into the Set Card.

It was [Heaven and Earth Chessboard] taking effect. The action priority of its covered card needs to be carried out during the card reveal phase.

Samuel Chess wanted to preserve this [Pawn Chess] with only 20 remaining health, but because of the demerit conditions, [Pawn Chess] couldn’t accept the position swapping skill of [King Chess Piece].

[Defense], on the other hand, wouldn’t be as good as turning into a face-down card and getting a 50 points [First Aid].

Because [Defense] + [Shield] could only resist 40+20=60 points of DPS from the opposite side.

After receiving [First Aid], it could resist 70 points of DPS, which was even more profitable than [Defense].

The cost required would be the chance to take action this round, and the desire to use it would have to be revealed with one more card reveal opportunity.

But even if it can’t survive, it’s better to consume more of the opponent’s DPS.

If it could survive, then it would be even better. In the next round, it could singlehandedly cross the river and make a retaliatory strike in its dying throes.

As for the card revealed by Samuel Chess, it was as Ree Shil had predicted, it was the outer card located on the right secondary row.

It was also a [Horse Chess], identical to the one before. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

As soon as this card appeared, it immediately started a discussion at the commentary booth.

Museum Director Phoenix: [Now, Contestant 2 Henry Thompson’s situation is even less optimistic.]

Hunchback Woman: [Is Museum Director Phoenix implying that these two Horse Chess pieces could easily threaten his King Card?]

Museum Director Phoenix: [Exactly.]

[Horse Chess] could attack over a distance, so as long as Samuel Chess takes out the Breaking Balance Sword, which has now become outer card, no matter at what cost, then he could directly attack Ree Shil’s King Card behind his Guard Card.
