Sorry, But I Never Rely On Luck When Playing Cards

Chapter 991: Chapter 359: The Key Puzzle of the Full Breakthrough Card Set_2

"[Arhat’s Chaotic Strikes - 3 points of energy]: Golden Arhat chooses 2 different targets and launches an attack."

"Today went smoothly.

This card deck, it directly formed perfectly."

The new cards’ amount of healing reached the average line, even a bit higher."

And they derived new optional tactical paths."

The first was full charge energy, dealing 40 points of [Healing] to a single target."

The second was releasing skills, dealing 30 points of [Healing] to two different targets."

You could say it can be used either for individuals or groups, quite comprehensive."

"I still have quite a few Cube coins on hand, I wonder if there are any suitable Material Cards at the Exclusive Store.

Or maybe spend some score at the Manager panel, I should be able to turn it into a satisfying A-class card.

Not bad, it can be considered a compensation for the time I wasted on this trip."

For the tenth level Boss battle that followed, Ree Shil no longer held any extravagant hopes.

All the attacks turning into healing, how was one supposed to play like that?

"Wait, could it be..."

But a moment later, his eyes twinkled: "Could the final Boss be one that needs to be defeated by healing?"

Some of the preceding event levels indeed target the Boss of the current big level."

This little monk’s appearance might not be without a cause."

So, 20 minutes later.

Hum!

Ree Shil’s figure appeared in the Pure White Space.

"Pah."

Some Boss targeting event, just wishful thinking."

days later, inside Ree Shil’s room.

Hum...

His virtual image emerged out of nowhere and gradually solidified.

"Sigh, no choice, ran out of steam."

Sitting down on the edge of his bed, Ree Shil couldn’t help but sigh.

The journey through [Way of Breakthrough] finally ended with four out of five levels completed."

The effect of [Kung Fu Sheep God] surpassed his expectations."

He had thought that for his first challenge, especially given the limitation of the full Breakthrough card set, reaching the Boss of the fourth level would be quite good."

To his surprise, the earlier stages went quite smoothly, especially passing the third major level in one go."

It allowed him to accumulate enough capital to attack the fourth level Boss."

However, after spending all initial funds and many attempts, he barely passed and moved on to the fifth level with a bit of money left.

Unable to defeat the elite of the fifth stage, he exhausted all of his attempts.

Old routine, still have to wash up before heading out."

He browsed the Exclusive Store outside the Association Headquarters but unfortunately didn’t find any eye-catching materials, let alone something suitable for the [Golden Arhat]."

Incidentally, Andrew Hill and Slame were browsing the stores (again), so he simply joined them for lunch.

Afterward, Ree Shil went back home."

"Now I have more than 6500 points, I can afford to spend a little more.

Let’s set the consumption to within 400."

The [Golden Arhat] card was important to him.

It was a crucial puzzle piece for getting through [Way of Breakthrough], so it was necessary to upgrade it to A level for use.

"Search for me, breaking force, monk, Kung Fu card set, A level, these keywords."

He opened the Manager’s exchange shop panel."

"[Okay, please wait]"

The artificial intelligence rapidly filtered the list items."

Soon, nearly a hundred options were displayed before him.

"Uh."

The number was a bit more than Ree Shil expected, he scrutinized them for a while, seeming troubled."

Most of them were weapons and Kung Fu manual type Material Cards.

Like [Iron Head Skill], [One Finger Zen], and so on."

Logically speaking, what use would a Treatment card like [Golden Arhat] have for something like Iron Head Skill or One Finger Zen?

But let’s not forget, this card has a special attack-to-healing conversion."

So even DPS skills might prove useful here."

"Borrow these out for me."

So he marked 1/3 of the quantity on the list and sent out the request."

No helping it, his score wasn’t enough to pay for all the Material Card deposits."

He could only borrow them out 1/3 at a time."

After previewing the first 1/3, there were no gains.

For instance, [Golden Arhat] + Iron Head Skill = [Iron Arhat]

It directly transformed from a B-class card to a B-Class Gold Edge Card."

Devouring [Arhat’s Chaotic Strikes], it gained a new active skill.

"[Iron Head Skill - 2 points of energy]: Golden Arhat initiates 1 attack, and the damage received this round is reduced by 10."

Actually, this skill isn’t too bad, it provided a certain level of self-protection ability for the Breakthrough Card.

But the [Golden Arhat]’s role is a Treatment Card, not a front-line card.

Moreover, it had devoured the original entry.

So, he continued to preview the second batch of 1/3, still no suitable materials.

It wasn’t until the third batch that he finally found something of value.

It was a book with a simple cover, a thin ancient tome, slowly rotating above the card face.

Shadows of lotus blossoms kept blooming around it.

[Pure Heart Sutra]: Has a chance to make the corresponding card’s attack carry the same ability

"Hahaha, it’s only selling for 80 points.

This is way too cheap, it’s no comparison to other A-class Material Cards.

But then again, who would be so bored as to exchange for such a Material Card."

At a glance, this card face was meant to imbue attacks with [Purification].

The problem is [Purification] and [Attack] have conflicting purposes.

One is a positive effect, the other a negative outcome.

Binding the two together is really not necessary.

Plainly speaking, it’s a Material Card considered a waste by most card players.

Of course, if fused successfully, it could still be useful, providing a gold edge for cards.

But how to handle the later entries is a problem.

However, for [Golden Arhat], this wasn’t a problem at all but rather a good thing.

He exchanged for [Pure Heart Sutra], holding it in his hand.

In the other hand, he held [Golden Arhat].

He brought the two cards together in a clap.

Hum!

A light emanated between his palms, and the card was made.

The new [Golden Arhat] had no changes elsewhere.

The only difference was in an added entry.

[Zen Mind, Pure Intention - Passive]: The Golden Arhat’s attack carries the [Purification] effect

"Isn’t this perfect?"

Seeing the card face become real, Ree Shil snapped his fingers.

If other cards received this entry, they would certainly be wary.

Afraid of reducing their own card’s Health, and afraid of employing [Purification].

But now, [Golden Arhat]’s attack is equal to [Healing] + [Purification].

If that’s not perfect, what is!

"With [Beast Master Red Dragon] and [Golden Arhat], my next venture into The Path of Breakthrough will definitely go smoother.

However, the cooldown for The Path of Breakthrough is quite long, almost twice that of an instance.

Taking this opportunity, perhaps I could have a look inside the instance Uncle Dragon Knight gave me."

After storing the cards properly, Ree Shil began to ponder.

[Ding-a-ling!]

Just then, the phone rang.

The caller was Museum Director Phoenix, and Ree Shil answered the call.

["Hello, is Coach Shil busy?"]

"Just came out from an instance, not busy."

["That’s good then, I have something to tell you.

The approval from the general hall has officially passed.

Your S-rank material slot has been secured."] freёwebnoѵel.com

"Oh? That’s great news."

["But you’ll need to make a trip to the general hall."]

"The Balance Hall headquarters?"]

["Correct, originally I intended to link you with the manager’s system.

So you could remotely make a selection, which would be quick and convenient for you.

But someone higher up disagreed, probably wanting to meet you in person."]

"That’s no problem, I can go."

["Don’t worry, I’ll accompany you there as well.

So you’ll need to come to Lan-Lan Metropolis again, and we’ll fly out from here.

You can come over whenever it’s convenient for you."]

After some more discussion and casual chat, Ree Shil hung up the phone.

S-rank material cards, of course, the sooner you get them, the better.

If they’re not suitable, just find a way to swap them in the black market for something more appropriate.

If they are suitable, then it’s an early start on the mission, who knows what kind of mission it will be.

For an S-rank Material Card, the trip is definitely worth it.

Moreover, the headquarters of the Balance Hall are of course located in the Balance District, and traveling by supersonic plane wont take too much time.

Thinking it over, he had nothing particular to do in the near future, so he might as well pack his bags and set off now.
