The chess and card room is on the third floor, diagonally opposite the show card hall.
At this time, in a box, the window was open.
From this angle, you can see clearly what is happening in front of the card hall at this time.
Even people with good hearing can hear the following conversation.
"Master, have some tea."
Xiao Hou took the freshly brewed hot tea and handed it to Wang Defa who was sitting by the window with both hands.
"I knew that this kid wouldn't avoid a fight. Ugh, bah, bah, bah!"
Wang Defa took a sip of the tea and his mouth was almost burned by the scald.
"But even if he comes to fight, he probably won't have much chance of winning."
Xiao Hou also came to the window and looked down.
It’s not that he held a grudge against Shi Li for losing to him in the Rising Star Tournament, but to be honest, he didn’t think the opponent could beat the veteran players in these card halls.
"Let's wait and see, maybe there will be a miracle."
However, Wang Defa did not agree with him.
In the final of the Rising Star Cup, I was slapped in the face enough.
This coach seems to have some magical powers and cannot be questioned casually.
"In fact, regardless of winning or losing, where else can you find such a good opportunity to observe 11 players at the same time?"
Wang Defa stroked his beard.
"Master is right. I am short-sighted."
Xiao Hou lowered his head respectfully.
…
The onlookers present and some of the challengers did not know Shi Li.
His appearance at this time caused a lot of discussion.
"Is this Coach Shi?"
"He doesn't look like a card expert. Why did the card show hall choose him as its representative?"
"I finally know why he avoided fighting. He looks so young."
"What do you mean by avoiding a fight? Aren't others coming now?"
Amidst the discussions, Shi Li walked up to the ten players who were challenging him.
Although they were somewhat mentally prepared, the ten players were still a little disappointed: Coach Shi finally came.
But at this time, their eyes were more wandering between each other.
Now that the defenders are here, there is no such thing as time expiring.
The new statement is who among these ten players will go on stage first.
In theory, in principle, to be realistic, and to be frank, no one wants to go first.
The reason is that those who are in the later order have an absolute advantage.
The people behind can first observe the coach's card pool and playing style most intuitively on the spot, and make various assumptions and preparations in their minds in advance.
And the further it gets, the more tired Coach Shi will definitely become.
Once the player is tired, he is prone to making mistakes and performing poorly.
This is true for all poker players, no matter how strong they are.
It’s just that strong poker players may not get tired so easily.
However, what they are most wary of right now is the intuition of card players.
Sometimes, this intuition is very accurate.
You can tell at a glance whether the other party is a parallel importer.
Now they didn't know why, but when they looked at Coach Shi standing there calmly, they always felt that the other party was not easy to mess with.
The more this kind of atmosphere there is, the less any of the ten challengers want to go first.
But there was no way to continue to be in this stalemate, so they decided to get together and discuss it briefly.
If all else fails, just draw lots. There will always be .
"Excuse me, Coach Shi. Let's discuss who will go first and who will go later."
Catfish Head, as a representative, greeted Shi Li.
As a result, Shi Li smiled and nodded, and then said something shocking.
"No need to discuss, just come together."
After these words were spoken, the whole audience was silent.
The thoughts in everyone's mind are the same.
Everyone, come together?
Did I hear that correctly?
You have to know what it means to fight together. Wouldn’t that mean 1V10?
This joke is a bit too much.
As a certain lady once said: It's no exaggeration to say whether it shakes or not.
They would rather believe that they had heard it wrong.
However, Shi Li's next move proved that he was not joking.
I saw him stretch out his arms and draw a big circle in front and behind him.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
With him as the center, ten blue light card tables evenly divided the 360 ​​degrees around him.
Such an action immediately caused an uproar around.
"Rampant, isn't this too rampant?"
"Is he serious? Is he really planning to 1v10 at the same time?"
"You know what, these ten card tables are set up at the same time, the scene is really quite spectacular."
The ten challengers were more or less unhappy when they saw this scene.
They are all poker players and have the dignity that belongs to poker players.
But now, he is treated like a small fry by others.
No doubt in their eyes this was an offense.
"Okay! In that case , I'll come and meet you!"
One of them, who had a more aggressive temper, walked directly to the card table and turned around to look at the other nine people.
"Everyone, don't let anyone underestimate you! Let's give him a 10-game losing streak!"
He said so.
"Hahahaha! Well said!"
"That's right, let's dampen this guy's spirit and give him 10 consecutive defeats!"
"But we have already agreed that whoever loses to him will be a shithead."
"Alright! Whoever loses is a shithead!"
Several people were also moved by these remarks and followed him to the table in indignation.
Although the remaining players were somewhat reluctant, the situation had developed to this point and they could only follow the crowd and come to the card table.
In just a short while, all 10 card tables were filled with players.
And the one standing facing the ten players was Shi Li.
"Remember, kid, this is what you asked for. Don't say we relied on our numbers to bully you."
"That's right. If you play 10 tables at the same time, you will run out of energy and energy. I wonder how you can play."
"Young people will eventually fall for their overconfidence."
In response to the comments of several players, Shi Li just smiled faintly.
Exhausted?
How is that possible? I have two hearts.
Then he just snapped his fingers.
Bang!
Buzz! x10
Ten blue light barriers isolate them separately.
All that every challenger can see is the card table in front of him and Shi Li at the other end of the table.
Everyone does not interfere with each other, and the game officially begins.
"Master, he is so kind!"
In the box on the third floor, Xiao Hou couldn't help but exclaim.
Is it really 1V10?
So bold and heroic!
From their perspective, ten blue light barriers were evenly spaced in a circle, like a blue light flower made up of perfect geometric shapes.
And Shi Li was standing there, at the very center of the overlapping arcs.
Unconsciously, Xiao Hou felt his blood boiling.
When will I be able to become the protagonist at the poker table like the person in the middle of the geometric figure?
Similar to Xiao Hou's emotions, the atmosphere below was also rapidly heated up at this time.
"Wow! I was just here to watch the fun, but I didn't expect to see such a good show!"
"Awesome! This is the first time I've seen a 1v10 poker game, even on TV."
"No, I want to call others to watch. I can't enjoy this kind of show alone."
The people who were originally standing in the distance and watching, all took a step forward unconsciously and walked to the blue light barrier.
On the steps at the entrance of the card hall, Director Xiu and Secretary He were watching the scene with their arms folded.
"This kid knows how to pretend."
Director Xiu watched and nodded repeatedly.
"He's more than just a show-off. He's got all these guys in his hands."
Secretary He echoed.
First of all, when playing cards, momentum is very important.
From the moment Shi Li proposed to face ten people alone, his momentum had already reached the peak of the game.
No matter what the opponent does or how they do it, they are bound to lose and it is impossible for them to regain their momentum.
And at the same time, 1V10 has another huge advantage.
That is to completely isolate these ten players without any order of priority, which means that they will completely lose the opportunity to obtain information by observing Shi Li's games with others.
Therefore, in the eyes of the two, Shi Li's move was both an unexpected and clever one with surprisingly good effects.
The only thing to worry about is the mental strain of opening ten tables and playing ten games at the same time.
However, since Shi Li dared to say this, they believed that he must be confident in this regard.
"It's impossible to watch all ten poker games at once, so let's pick a few to watch."
Director Xiu walked down the stairs while speaking.
"In that case, let's look at Coach A-Cat. He should have the highest overall quality among these ten players."
Secretary He suggested.
The coach A-chi he mentioned is the catfish head. Among the ten challengers, he is the most experienced coach.
"Master, which round should we focus on?"
"Look at that catfish head, he has the best angle on the card game."
"Daughter, let's take a closer look."
"Well, let's go watch Coach Catfish's card game, Dad."
For various reasons, the game in which Catfish Head played became the most watched game.
At this time, he was also thinking carefully about his deck.
(According to intelligence, the card that this person will most likely get in the first row is a card that occupies three squares.)
Catfish Head was thinking silently.
Although everyone tried many ways to pry open Ah Xiong's mouth and get the information about Shi Li's specific deck from him, they were unable to do so.
But I remember that the other party did reveal a little bit of information that day, which was that the other party still took out a "big guy".
Generally speaking, for players who haven't even reached LV10, the depth of their decks is very shallow.
So he had every reason to suspect that this guy only had one set of main cards.
(Then I would put my most cost-effective cards that counter death and monsters in the first row.)
(And I heard that he has mostly monster cards, so I'd better get two cards that counter monsters.)
Thinking of this, he quickly laid out his first row of cards.
As for the subsequent cards, there is no need to finalize them so quickly. Just put in some cards with suitable scores and act accordingly later.
While placing them, Catfish Head saw Shi Li turning towards him.
"Coach Shi, you better be careful in this round, poof."
As he said this, he flicked his tongue out of habit.
"Okay, no problem."
Shi Li just glanced at him casually, then quickly started placing the cards in his hand.
The whole process took less than a few seconds, and he had finished arranging the cards and moved on to the next table to continue.
"Haha, puff."
Seeing this scene, Catfish Head couldn't help but laugh with his tongue sticking out.
This person is so arrogant that he even wants to fight ten people alone.
Look at how hurried you are now. You know you were wrong.
1V1 still requires careful consideration, and 1V10, to put it bluntly, is equivalent to conducting 10 1V1 games at the same time.
Even if we put aside the mental drain, can you count 10 card tables by yourself?
I was very confident just now and I showed off my strength.
But it may feel good to pretend to be cool, but you will end up in the crematorium soon.
"Come on! Let's get started!"
Thinking of this, Catfish Head fiercely placed his last card.
Buzz!
After both sides placed their cards, a light flashed on the table and the game officially began.
"Let me show you my first row of cards, huh!"
With a sharp cry, Catfish Head turned over his three first-row cards in succession.
Snap! Snap! Snap!
[Master called me to patrol the mountain~]
On the left side of the card, a projection of a little boy wearing a Taoist robe and carrying a large gourd walked out of the light column.
There was a Tai Chi symbol embroidered on the chest of his long Taoist robe. The robe seemed a little long for him, and his hands were hidden in the sleeves.
【Little Fairy】
Listen to the Wind, 30 points, D
Attack 30, 100/100.
[Small Magic Weapon - Passive]: When the fairy attacks a monster card, the target will be [stunned] for 1 round and gain [Toughness]
(【Dizziness】: Unable to act this round)
(【Resilience】: After being controlled in this round, you will be immune to control in the next round)
"Well, this card is pretty good. It's considered a top-quality D-grade card."
Standing behind the catfish head, Director Xiu nodded repeatedly as he watched.
"【Stun】 is basically one of the strongest controls. If you use 【Stun】 and add 【Toughness】, it means that you can control the opponent once every two rounds on average."
"If the opponent has multiple monster cards, he can control the opponent back and forth without interruption."
"It can be seen that this catfish head is indeed prepared."
Secretary He’s analysis was more detailed.
【Ding ding dong dong! 】
In the middle of the card, there is a projection of a long stick with golden light, which jumps out of the card.
A string of bells is hung on the top of the stick, producing visible vibrations.
【Demon-killing Pestle】
Firm, 30 points, B
Attack 30, 100/100, 0/4
[Golden Light Bodyguard - Passive]: The Demon-Slaying Pestle protects the cards in the same row, causing them to receive -5 damage when attacked by the monster cards.
[Demon Energy Conversion - Passive]: When the Demon-Slaying Pestle is attacked by a demon card, it will recover an additional 1 energy point
[Golden Light Shock - 4 Energy]: The Demon-Slaying Pestle deals 30 points of damage to all revealed demon cards on the field.
Director Xiu: "Rather than saying it's a monster-killing card, it's more like a monster-prevention card."
Secretary He: "It would be a real headache for the demon card to face such a meat shield, and it can attack and defend."
[Huh…Huh…Huh…]
The card projection on the right is a man wearing a white protective suit and holding a huge syringe weapon.
His heavy breathing could be heard through the mask filter on the protective suit.
【Virus Admin】
Rage, 30 points, B
Attack 30, 100/100
[Mixed Potion 1 - Passive]: When a Virus Administrator attacks a Zombie Card, it gains [Weakness] for 1 turn.
[Mixed Potion 2 - Passive]: When a Virus Administrator attacks a Zombie Card, it gains [Fatigue] for 1 turn.
[Sense of Achievement in Governance - Passive]: When the Virus Manager participates in killing the Zombie Card this round, he gains 50 points of [Healing]
(【Powerless】: Reduces target's attack power by 10)
(【Fatigue】: When the target gains energy, the effect is halved)
"Oh my god, he's so well prepared to even pull out a card like this."
Secretary He adjusted his glasses. This card is the absolute nemesis of the Zombie card.
"Don't underestimate the depth of these coaches' decks. Moreover, 9 days might be enough for them to go to the next dungeon."
Director Xiu folded his arms.
"But I don't think I'd have to go to a dungeon to get cards just to deal with Coach Shi."
"Haha, who knows."
Faced with her cousin's question, she remained noncommittal.
He just glanced towards somewhere on the third floor.
"Coach Shi, what do you think of these three cards, haha... um."
The catfish head at the table seemed a little excited after revealing the cards, but soon became embarrassed on the spot.
Because the person he was talking to was actually the back of Shi Li's head.
It turns out that from beginning to end, others were too busy to pay attention to me!
"You are so arrogant, but I will see how you can continue to pretend when you are faced with an absolute disadvantage next time, humph!"
Catfish Head snorted.
After more than ten seconds, Shi Li finally turned around.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting."
That slightly apologetic attitude made Catfish Head feel a little uncomfortable.
"It's okay, actually I didn't..."
Before Catfish Head could finish his words, he saw the guy opposite him wave his hand and blow the first row of cards to the opposite side like a gust of wind.
Then he turned around and headed towards the card table next door.
"Nima!"
Catfish Head felt ignored again.
However, the other party did reveal his cards, so the game can continue.
But when his eyes fell on the three cards...
"……ah?"
The two catfish eyes on the catfish head almost fell out.
【Geese, geese, geese! 】
【Cuckoo, quack! 】
[I am ugly~ but I am very~~~]
A goose, a monkey, and an ugly guy.
Where is the shadow of the demon card or the funeral beast card?
(You got cheated, you idiot!)
Recalling what Ah Xiong said and did on the first day here, Catfish Head suddenly realized.
After looking at the cards more carefully, his expression became even uglier.
Three B-grade cards?!
what the hell!
Are you sure this is a new player's deck???
"Haha, it seems that many people have been fooled this time."
Director Xiu walked around and came back and found at least 7 card tables, all in a similar situation to Catfish Head.
These guys all prepared demon-killing cards, but they were useless.
"The advantage of 1V10 is shown."
Secretary He was completely convinced at this time.
If you play 10 games in a row, even if you use two or three decks in rotation, you will be caught by the braids.
But now if you play 10 games at the same time, you can really win them all with one deck.
While Catfishhead was stunned, Shi Li had already turned to the card table again.
At this moment, his expression was slightly thoughtful.
Originally, I had no intention of going up against the [Giant Zombie], not to mention the lesson learned from Ah Xiong.
But he always felt something was strange, because there were too many people who prepared cards to counter monsters today.
My position in their hearts should not be that high.
However, although he was secretly puzzled, he did not show it on his face.
"If you don't move, I will move first."
Seeing that Catfish Head was still in a daze, he glanced at the opponent's deck.
Then he quickly chose his action and turned to the next table.
