Chapter 602: Chapter 449: Beaten to Death by a Mob

After making up her mind, You Xinqing revealed her cards even more swiftly.

Without any hesitation, she revealed all the remaining 5 cards.

"Wow."

"Such a strong deck."

"Feels like this round won’t be easy despite its simplicity."

"Yes, and although somewhat messy, I recognize most of these cards, and they have quite good functionality."

"Who knows, functional cards might be the nemesis of that counter zoo deck."

As each card was revealed, the audience began to discuss.

Unexpectedly, You Xinqing’s luck was quite impressive in this round, as she randomly got a 3S+4A deck.

Even A Genliang’s strongest deck, the Half-orc Tribe, is merely 3S+3A+1B, and hers is even stronger.

Whether it’s countered isn’t something Li Pu can decide.

Now, he couldn’t do much, just stick to the conventional strategy.

As usual, the opening move was to let the [Kung Fu Ant] activate its skill first.

Then select the remaining Kung Fu cards to focus fire on one of the opponent’s lead cards.

The biggest disadvantage for him in this round was that he couldn’t get specific information about his opponent’s deck in advance from Li Fan.

After all, not even Li Fan could predict what cards You Xinqing would randomly draw.

In the last round, knowing the opponent’s 2 consecutive hits helped him plan his firepower distribution more effectively, as he was certain the opponent would lose 70 health points from his counterattack initially.

Once both sides made their decisions, the action phase officially began.

Unexpectedly, an unforeseen event occurred for Li Pu.

Unexpectedly, all three lead cards from the opponent chose [Defense].

This somewhat hindered Li Pu’s attack plan, resulting in only dealing a total of 60 damage to the opponent.

[Roar!!!]

Then You Xinqing’s ace card, the S-grade three-headed Golden Lion.

Unexpectedly, not just one, but three bites landed on her own secondary card, an Armor Golem.

-30, -20, -20

An exaggerated total damage appeared.

"What’s going on, something doesn’t feel right."

Li Pu suddenly had a bad premonition.

Aside from this action, You Xinqing surprisingly didn’t take any other actions.

The 1st round ended completely along with the conclusion of the action phase.

"Ah, I just remembered I forgot to remind him."

At this moment, Li Fan struck his palm.

"Remind him of what?"

Ah Yajun asked beside him.

"You Xinqing is also one of the destined ones with the bloodline of a Summoned Beast."

Li Fan glanced at Ah Yajun, clearly aware of his situation too.

"Ah? Doesn’t that mean she also possesses player skills?"

"What kind of skill is it?"

Ah Yajun quickly inquired.

Having a player similar to himself is quite rare.

Possessing sufficiently concentrated bloodline of the Summoned Beast and quickly reabsorbing the player skills in a very short time during the first major update, none of these conditions can be lacking.

He once suspected that Li Pu might fall under this category too, as his physical fitness is quite extraordinary, known from their dungeon run.

However, he had never seen Li Pu use player skills, so he couldn’t be sure.

"[Sacrifice], have you heard of this player skill?"

Li Fan crossed his arms.

"Seems like... I’ve really heard of it!"

Ah Yajun’s expression froze.

[Sacrifice] was once quite famous because a known player possessed this skill.

He didn’t know the specific conditions for activating this skill.

But he knew the effect, which was to sacrifice a card and transfer 50% of its attack and remaining health to another card.

The card reveal phase of the 2nd round arrived, and this phase should be skipped in this mode.

However, Li Pu received a table prompt indicating it was staying at this phase.

Then he saw You Xinqing pointing with her finger...

[Willing to sacrifice life for you!]

The Armor Golem that had been attacked by him earlier knelt down with a thud, and its armor components began to fall off one by one.

There was nothing inside, only a plume of black smoke emerged.

Subsequently, the armor started gradually transforming into blue light, indicating that this card was leaving the field.

But unlike before, the blue light didn’t completely dissipate; instead, it seemed guided as it drilled into the projection of [Nine-nine Thunder Element].

[Thunder! Thunderous Thunder!]

Then the thunder light projection swelled a bit.

In a way that only You Xinqing could see, its card face also changed.

[Nine-nine Thunder Element]

Balance, 9 points, S

Attack 9+10, 259/259

The 10 attack points came from the 50% attack power of the Armor Golem.

The base health increased by 30 points, which was the remaining health of the Armor Golem.

The condition for the [Sacrifice] player skill is that the card’s health must not exceed 30%, and it can only be used once per round.

This means a card with 100 health at most provides 30 health to [Nine-nine Thunder Element], but with the addition of [Will of Nine II], it also gains an extra 30 points of 99% health. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

[Thunder comes!]

After absorbing the new energy, [Nine-nine Thunder Element] didn’t stop.

It roared, and where the Armor Golem’s empty card slot was beside it, a thunder pillar struck down.

Boom!

After the thunder light, an identical thunder light group appeared in the card slot.
