Chapter 797: Chapter 280: Evil Demon Dragon_2
After the Lan-Lan competition, the top competitors will represent the Lan-Lan zone in the higher-level competition.
But Ree Shil didn’t just want to be in the top ranks - he was shooting for first place.
Because only by taking first place could he win the reward of S-rank material cards.
However, the competition had only progressed to Group 13, and there were still around 2/3 of the competitors left, yet powerful contestants with nearly all-A Knife Card Sets were already appearing.
It was not hard to imagine what kind of competitors would show up next.
And remember, this did not include those who were hiding their true capabilities in the Group Competition.
Ree Shil had to admit, the strength that Ice Maiden had shown forced him to rethink his strategy.
The next day, the 14th Group competition began.
In the 14th Group as well, a contender with almost all-A cards showed up.
However, the outcome was quite surprising.
Because the contestant with nearly all-A-Class Deck only managed to take second place.
Because the one who took first place in the group had a card deck with remarkably strong targeted capabilities, was just 1A with 9B, and took out the second placer.
You could say that as the Group Competitions reached this halfway mark, more people were catching on to the pace and starting to show their true abilities.
After all, in the earlier groups, there had been competitors who faced bitter defeat because they hid their card collections.
Some competitors carelessly lost twice, and by the time they wanted to use their strongest decks, it was too late.
Flat Orange’s secondary line-up was scraped together like this.
On the third day, the competition for the Fifteenth Group began.
Since Greenfeather was participating in this group, Ree Shil and the others were quite serious about it.
They took their seats in the contestant’s area early and watched the other competitors’ card games very carefully, trying to formulate strategies for her.
But surprisingly, Greenfeather made quite the splash.
Her deck style was somewhat unique, she put up an all Breakthrough Card Set.
To be exact, it was not just a full Breakthrough Card Set.
It was an incredibly unified, full Wind Spirit Cards Set.
From 0 to 40 Points, the lengths varied in four segments.
Then, from D level to A level, there were again four segments.
The combination of these segments made her all Wind Spirit Breakthrough deck incredibly versatile.
With the help of [Wind Spirit Transformation], her A Level Card would never end up being a waste card.
Even if she just casually combined some garbage A-grade material and elevated a garbage B-Class Card to A level, then used Transformation.
It would become a useful A Level Card.
With their city’s Card Players Association backing them, including full consultation from Formula Masters, and others, fusing some trashy A Level Cards wasn’t too tough a task.
Ree Shil knew about the basic proficiency level of Greenfeather’s deck.
From the knockout round to the present Group Competition, it was evident that the strength of the deck had made considerable progress.
Even her Card Skill seemed to have slightly improved.
It seemed that during this time, it was not just Shil who was working hard.
With advice from everyone and Greenfeather’s own excellent performance, she smoothly made it through to the next round as the Group Champion.
In the evening, back in his room, Ree Shil sat at the edge of the bed, lost in thought.
For the subsequent matches, Grace Spring from Group 21 and V-50 from Group 28 of their small group were yet to play.
All the rest, except for Cecile, had made it to the next round. freeweɓnøvel.com
The Fifteenth Group competition had just ended today, and there were still six more days to go before the earliest, Group 21.
He planned on not watching it and, didn’t want to wait.
Because he was feeling the pressure.
Even Greenfeather had brought out a 3A deck today. Who knows what else she is hiding?
Greenfeather: What do you mean "even"? What does "brought out" mean?
For this reason, Ree Shil planned to enter the Instance.
"However, my Dungeon Cooldown Time is still quite long."
"I need to drink at least two Cooldown Potions to complete the cooldown."
Unlocking the desk drawer, he took out two blue reagents.
"Should I take a chance?"
"After all, it’s not like I’m going to die."
After being reminded by Grace Spring that day, Ree Shil had seriously sought out related information.
Overuse of reagents does have side effects, but it wasn’t as terrible as they made it out to be.
All available literature said that the side effects were temporary. Even if used as food, it was the same.
In addition, there were no lasting effects, and it wouldn’t cause physical harm.
To confirm this, he had even called Secretary Brown and got confirmation.
"It’s just impotence for a week at most."
Shil had even prepared for the worst-case scenario.
"Just that I estimate this Instance journey might take quite some time."
With a flick of his wrist, an Instance Crystal that looked like a small metal sword appeared in his hand.
Then from his Card Player Panel, he displayed the related unfinished missions.
[Stage 3 (1): Find 5/73 Sword Body Fragments for the Nameless Sword Spirit.]
[Stage 3 (2): Find the former Master of the Nameless Sword Spirit.]
No telling how long this Sword Body Fragments collection mission was going to take. freewebnσvel.cѳm
"But the time ratio in that world is 1:10."
"Now there are still 17 days of Group Competitions and, adding the 5-day break, leaving 2 days buffer in the middle, it makes 20 days."
"I can stay in the Instance for up to 200 days in all, which is close to 7 months."
"I wonder if I can finish the mission."
The last time he was with Exterminator Thirteen, he stayed for quite a while, too.
So 200 days didn’t feel quite reliable.
"Fortunately, I found out there are potions like this."
With this thought, Shil took out two more reagents from his pocket.
He had just received these from Museum Director Phoenix today.
[Temporal Departure Potion]
It allowed card players to temporarily exit an instance without settlement.
