Free Web NovelChapter 73: Chapter 35: Guardian Officer Card_2
It wasn’t until more than halfway through the preview that he finally found the first Guardian Officer’s card.
"Nice card."
He was delighted with just one glance.
[Reading is the Source of Power]
The fox-headed person in the projection stood elegantly and intelligently, holding a book in their hand.
It was the Fox Guard Officer he had met before.
[Fox Guard Officer]
Listening to the Wind, 30 Points, C
Attack 30, 100/100, 3/3
[Reading Accumulation - Passive]: When the Fox Guard Officer reveals their card, gain 3 energy points
[Vine Burst - 3 Energy]: Fox Guard Officer selects 3 reveal targets, dealing 20 damage each, causing them to be entwined for 1 round
([Entwined]: The target cannot[Move])
"Although[Entwined]is more of a soft control, only capable of countering[Movement], being able to control three targets at once makes it quite powerful."
"If combined with group attack cards that increase control damage, a great combo can be played."
"Besides, this is an exceptional C-Class Card as a Listening to the Wind card, with full energy at the start."
He was very satisfied with this card.
However, just in case, he didn’t draw it directly but put it aside as an alternative.
Continuing the preview, it didn’t take long to find another Guardian Officer card.
[Look at me!]
A fierce tiger-headed martial monk jumped out of the card face, glaring angrily.
"This card is... okay, I guess."
The appearance of the Tiger Guard Officer is a bit inferior.
[Tiger Guard Officer]
Balance, 35 Points, C
Attack 35, 100/100
[Strong Start - Passive]: In the round the Tiger Guard Officer reveals their card, they can select a target to cause them 2 rounds[Fear]
[Momentum Exhausted - Passive]: After 3 rounds, Tiger Guard Officer’s attack power decreases by 15
([Fear]: The target is forced to[Defense]in the next round)
With decent control effects and a somewhat disappointing negative attribute.
"At least it’s better than a useless D-Class Card."
"Alternative, alternative, put it aside as an alternative."
He also pushed this card aside.
So far, Ree Shil had previewed nearly 200 cards.
He selected 5 of them as alternatives.
It’s unknown if the remaining 50+ cards would produce one or two more alternatives.
As expected, he discovered a new Guard Officer card after just a few previews.
[Crunch Crunch...]
In the card projection, there is a petite rabbit girl, nibbling on a carrot.
He met this guard officer twice in the Instance, but he never saw her take action, so he had no idea about her actual strength.
"How did she become a Guardian Officer with a D-Class card? And this card’s appearance is terrible." frёewebηovel.cѳm
"How did she become a Guardian Officer?"
He wrinkled his nose and listed her as an alternative as well.
Yes, another emotional decision was made.
He thought it would be better to have a strange card like this, rather than an ordinary E-Class Card with no skills.
Of course, it wasn’t because the appearance of the card was a female rabbit-headed person.
And if it were really because of the appearance that he collected this card, it might be that he had already reached the highest level of Fortune Charm control.
After all, she was a female rabbit-headed person, not a bunny girl.
After all the cards were previewed, the results were a bit disappointing.
There were only three Guardian Officers appeared in this card pool.
All the alternatives he had picked out now became primaries.
So the cards he drew(?) this time were:
[Gnoll Captain]-D
[Cat-Head Captain]-D
[Guard Team Deputy]-D
[Rabbit Head Guardian]-D
[Fox Guard Officer]-C
[Tiger Guard Officer]-C
He actually wanted the card of the Wolf-headed Guardsman the most.
A card capable of single combat and control would surely be strong.
Unfortunately, that card did not appear.
[Card Selection Completed]
[Please Receive Cube Coin Reward]
After drawing the cards, the cube coin came hovering over.
"523, not bad," said Ree Shil as he received the money.
Considering this Instance alone, he had a deficit in terms of economy.
Spent 2000 and got back only 500+ in the end.
However, looking at the bigger picture, there was no need to worry too much.
Buzz!
His body gradually became ethereal, and he left the Instance.
Back to reality, it was still the Grand Hall.
However, there were now empty seats everywhere, and the place seemed much less crowded.
Only 12 players qualified to sit here remained.
The others had all been asked to leave.
But most of the eliminated contestants didn’t leave, instead they lingered at the entrance of the hall, casting resentful gazes inside.
Among them was a mechanical clan member with laser eyes.
Two real red spots were cast on Ree Shil’s face by those gazes, feeling a little hot.
Actually, not only were the eliminated contestants there, but even the surviving players were either sneaking glances or just staring at him at this time.
The atmosphere was obviously wrong.
So he just looked at his nose and mouth and heart, or in other words, he played dead.
Thankfully, after a while, the person in charge came in.
And then instructed the staff to drive away all the eliminated contestants.
Standing on stage, the person in charge first said, "I hope some players will be more careful in the future and not fall asleep in the Detention Area."
He was obviously talking about Ree Shil.
Because he took the longest time to draw cards, everyone was waiting for him to finish.
Having chased someone in a car for a night in the Ancient Palace, falling asleep was the only thing to do.
"As I’m sure everyone knows, there have been some unexpected situations in this Instance Game."
The person in charge’s second sentence was also about Ree Shil.
They didn’t expect this year’s Nova Championships to produce such a tough guy.
The plan was to take 32 players to the next round, but more than half of them were wiped out.
