Based on what you said, he still needs to uncover one more defensive card.
This..."
Upon counting, he seemed to understand Ree Shil’s meaning.
In a 9+1 card game, Grace Spring played 6 survival-oriented cards, more than half.
All of these are for defense, and there is no DPS card for counterattacking!
"Perhaps the intention of revealing the [Nameless Assassin] so early lies here.
His goal wasn’t to get rid of the Giant Card, but to use the threat of [Nameless Assassin] to control Hui Defa’s overall card-revealing strategy.
If I’m not mistaken, he will play an [Ignition] or [Healing Forbidden] card this turn."
As Ree Shil’s voice fell, Magic Implementor revealed his fourth-round card.
[Let me use Blazing Fist on you!]
One could only see an unclear figure of a burly man engulfed in flames walking out of the card.
[Blazing Fist Man]
Berserk, 30 points, A
Atk 30, 100/100
[Tormenting Flames - Passive]: Blazing Fist Man loses 30 HP per round, all damage inflicted carries [Ignition]
[Fires of Revenge - Passive]: For each target with [Ignition] on the field, Blazing Fist Man receives 10 points [Healing] during phase T5.
[Resilient Body and Mind - Passive]: When Blazing Fist Man’s HP reaches 0, he gains 1 round of [Delay]
[Flame Burst - 20 HP]: Blazing Fist Man attacks one target, carries [Spread] effect
"You actually got it right..."
Seeing this card, Samuel Chess looked at Ree Shil: "Not only is it an [Ignition] card, but it’s also an area-wide [Ignition] card.
You should be on the commentary stage, not sitting here."
Not only did Ree Shil correctly guess Magic Implementor’s revealed cards, but he also guessed Grace Spring’s.
Grace Spring’s uncovered Covered Card was indeed the one behind [Superior Heavenly Soldier], and it was indeed a Defensive Card.
With both sides having new cards join, Magic Implementor’s side carrying two DPS cards had the advantage at the end of the fourth round.
"Brother, your defeat is already apparent. It’s better to surrender now and save some face."
Feeling rather relaxed, Magic Implementor on the card table believed he had already grasped the situation.
As his words landed, he revealed his seventh regular Covered Card.
[One more drink!]
As the card face flipped, a disheveled figure tumbled out from the light column.
[Drunken Fist Warrior]
Wisdom, 40 points, B
Atk 40, 100/100, 2/2
[Drunken Fist - Passive]: Drunken Fist Warrior cannot [Defend], attack +20 when attacking [Defense] targets
[Drunken Step - Passive]: Drunken Fist Warrior receives -5 damage
[Drinking -1 Energy]: Next turn, Drunken Fist Warrior’s passive effect doubles for 2 rounds
(Note: Thanks to Designer [Dancing in the Wind], this card has been balanced)
Hunchback Woman: [Although it’s just a B-Class Card, this Magic Implementor player’s card has a strong battle strength!
After [Drinking], the effect of [Drunken Fist] will become +40 Attack Power.
As a 40-attack card, it’s equivalent to ignoring [Defense].
And it lasts for 2 turns!]
Museum Director Phoenix: [So far, apart from [Blazing Fist Man], all the cards Magic Implementor revealed were Kung Fu cards.
It looks like he’s been hiding this deck for a while.
Player Henry Thompson, it’s not going to be easy.]
However, facing such a passive situation, Grace Spring at the card table did not show discouragement.
"Six out of seven regular cards are Kung Fu cards... This is what you forced me to do."
He revealed his seventh Covered Card with a slight regret in his expression.
[Crash Crash Bang!]
As the card flipped, a mechanical life resembling a hunting dog drove out of the light column.
It had wheels on its limbs, a hollow tail like an exhaust pipe, and various guns mounted on its back and sides.
[Top-of-the-line Gun Dog]
Listening to the Wind, 30 points, A
Atk 30, 50/50, 0/2
[Precision Structure - Passive]: Top-of-the-line Gun Dog’s maximum life value - 50
[Equipment Cooling - Passive]: Top-of-the-line Gun Dog must [Standstill] for 1 round every 2 rounds
[Gunfire Baptism - Passive]: Top-of-the-line Gun Dog deals double damage when attacking Kung Fu cards
[Large Laser -1 Energy]: Top-of-the-line Gun Dog attacks one target and carries [Penetration] effect
Hunchback Woman: [Wow! Am I seeing things?!
Player Henry Thompson actually pulled out a... Kung Fu counter card!]
Moreover, why does this card feel so similar to our Lan-Lan Metropolis’s spiritual totem, the Gun Beast?!]
It is said that in a small world during an ancient time, the Gun Beast and Kung Fu Beast were mortal enemies...
So does this card show such a strong Kung Fu countering effect?]
Curator Phoenix:[This [Top-of-the-line Gun Dog] card is indeed similar to [Drunken Fist Warrior] in its unique effect.
Its damage against Kung Fu cards doubled, which is equivalent to ignoring [Defense].
Then, it stands still every 2 rounds, essentially recharging itself.
It can deal [Penetration] damage every other turn.
Considering that Magic Implementor Player’s card deck is mostly Kung Fu cards, this [Penetration] effect is equivalent to 60+60.
A 30-points card dealing 120 damage in 2 rounds is indeed exceptionally high.
This forces Magic Implementor’s outer card to [Defense], or risk a sudden explosion if caught off guard.]
Throughout the competition, it wasn’t only Ree Shil who was making progress.
Grace Spring also had his own gains.
As the number one representative of Lan-Lan Metropolis, the support he received was not only from the Balance Hall.
As he advanced through each round, the Card Players Association of Lan-Lan Metropolis provided even more resources to help him.
So, he got the opportunity to enter the Instance.
After coming out of the Instance and making some adjustments, he now had several strong Gun Beast Cards suitable for use on the field.
Initially, he didn’t want to pull out these cards unless absolutely necessary.
It was obvious that these were the surprise prepared for Ree Shil.
Thanks to Ree Shil’s reminder before the match, Grace knew that the other side might also play Kung Fu cards, so he put the Gun Beast cards into his substitute deck.
"Hmph, it’s nothing impressive."
Seeing this [Top-of-the-line Gun Dog], Magic Implementor’s expression indeed became a bit unsightly: "At worst, I won’t play Kung Fu cards from now on."
"Hehe, you better take care of your Kung Fu cards first."
Grace Spring smiled coldly and began his move this round.
In the contestant’s seat, Samuel Chess looked at Ree Shil again and chuckled.
"It seems like this card was prepared for you.
What about the current situation, what do you think?"
"Hard to say. The problem with Hui Defa is the conservatism in his card deck, and the lack of DPS.
If I had to make another prediction, I would say Magic Implementor has a narrow victory.
Just relying on a Gun Beast card won’t be enough to turn the tide.
Unless he can pull an S-rank card to turn the tables." fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
Ree Shil’s view hasn’t changed.
He thought that if the [Kung Fu Sheep God] card was played, it might create a turning point.
But obviously, Grace Spring didn’t have any S-rank cards to play.
On the other hand, Magic Implementor still played a single-target [Healing Forbidden] card after not playing Kung Fu cards.
He further restricted Grace Spring’s healing array and maintained his advantage.
In the end, the outcome was as Ree Shil predicted. Magic Implementor unveiled Grace Spring’s King Card with the advantage of a 50-health regular card.
Both sides had 30-points King Cards, the benefit of the 50-health difference in regular cards was obvious.
Although Grace Spring’s King Card was slightly stronger, he still lost the card game due to the difference of two simple attacks.
So the winner of the semi-finals is Magic Implementor.
After the semi-finals ended, there was a 5-day rest period.
Since Grace Spring kept making noise about Ree Shil avenging him and it was too noisy, he escaped into the Instance to continue his long-term mission.
In the Instance, 5 days was equivalent to 50 days.
His gains during these 50 days were quite good, and the progress of his mission was greatly advanced.
[Stage 3 (1):Find Sword Body Fragments for the Nameless Sword Spirit 62/73]
[Stage 3 (2):Find the Former Master for the Nameless Sword Spirit 4/5]
Both subquests were almost completed, and it was estimated that they would be done within 10-20 days of real-time.
After coming out of the Instance, he rested for one night.
On the evening of the next day, the Finals arrived.
Hunchback Woman:[Ladies and gentlemen, good evening!]
Museum Director Phoenix:[Good evening.]
Hunchback Woman:[After a long competition, we finally usher in the highly anticipated Finals.
Now, please welcome the two contestants to the stage!]
As the host announced, Ree Shil and Magic Implementor walked towards the stage.
