Currently, among the three decks I have, namely the Kung Fu deck, the sword deck, and the summoning deck, the summoning deck is the least complete.
I can't even put together a 6+1.
Therefore, this time, Shi Li also paid more attention to the extraction of summoning cards in [Way of Balance].
It’s like when he drew from the 10,000-card pool for the first time, he drew 1B2C2D.
The 1B among them is the summoning card.
The projection of this card is a woman in white who looks quite scary.
It has horns on its head and a pale face.
A long, bright red tongue hung out of the mouth and drooped directly to the ground.
【Long Tongue】
Break, 30 points, B
Attack 30, 100/100, 0/3
[Yao Qi - Passive]: When the Long Tongue Trick directly attacks a normal creature card, the damage caused is +10
[Long Tongue Licking - Passive]: Long Tongue's attack has a [Pull] effect
[Resentment Curse - 2 Energy Points]: Long Tongue Trickster appears behind the target, summoning a ghost behind him
(【Pull】: If there is a space in front of the target, it will be forced to 【move】)
【Behind the Scene】
Balanced, 10 points, D
Attack 10, 50/50
[No Defense - Passive]: The damage from the back spirit is -10 from the own direction, and the damage from the enemy direction is +10
This card looks like a joker card, but it is actually a monster card.
Moreover, the attack comes with the [Pull] effect, which is quite rare.
[Pull] and [Knockback] are a pair of inverse relationships.
However, compared to [Knockback], [Pull] is easier to take effect.
Because in order for a card to be [pulled], there only needs to be an empty space directly in front of the target card.
[Knockback] requires an empty space directly behind the target.
Of course, we need to analyze the specific situation specifically, and sometimes the concepts of directly in front and directly behind can be interchanged.
We still have to sit at the table to explain it clearly.
This [Long Tongue] is a relatively rare summoning card in the summoning deck.
Therefore, it has a certain degree of output capability.
This can be seen from the damage increase of [Demonic Aura] and the priority of [Pull].
And the summoned D-level cards are also very interesting.
For example, [Long Tongue] [pulled] an enemy card A, causing it to [move] from the second row to the first row.
And behind him, on the empty space in the second row of tablets, he summoned a [Ghost Behind].
Then it will be difficult for A to clear the [Ghost Behind] because he will suffer 10 points of damage reduction.
But A's teammate, that is, the card in the last row of the enemy's cards, will inflict additional damage when attacking [Spirit Behind].
In addition to speaking of summoning decks, of course, related auxiliary decks are also indispensable.
In the elite battle of [Second Level Five], Shi Li also got a very good summoning auxiliary card.
The card projection is a huge orange-red crystal that can emit crystal rays as a means of attack.
【Rune Crystal】
Balanced, 10 points, D
Attack 10, 100/100
[Broken Pull - Passive]: When the Rune Crystal leaves the field, a Steadfast Summoning Card can be used to summon skills without consumption.
The requirements are quite strict. When exiting the stage, it is still a firm type summoning card.
In fact, Shi Li’s idea was to merge this card with [Ghost Fire Boy].
[Wisp Boy] self-destructs, creating 1 to 3 card slots, and then triggers a free summon for his own side.
This way, it's perfect.
But unfortunately, neither [Wilson's Boy] nor [Rune Crystal] are gold-edged cards.
So it cannot be integrated for the time being.
He has no intention of enhancing this [Rune Crystal].
It's just a 10-point card anyway, so there's not much point in enhancing it.
Moreover, the enhancement may also bring obstacles to the fusion with the [Ghost Fire Boy] in the future.
However, in order to match this card, Shi Li also selected a Steadfast Summoning card from the subsequent ten thousand card pool.
The projection of the card is a turtle with a green shell, a white head and face, and a wig and a fake big red nose.
【Funny turtle】
Firm, 30 points, C
Attack 30, 100/100, 0/2
[Turtle Health - Passive]: When Funny Turtle [Defends], gains 10 points of [Healing]
[Funny Egg - 2 Energy]: Funny Turtle selects a slot and summons [Funny Egg] at that slot.
【Funny Egg】
Wisdom, 0 points, D
Attack 0, 30/30, 1/1
[Funny Face - 1 Energy]: Funny Egg chooses 1 target and makes it [Taunt] for 1 round
(【Taunt】: Forces the opponent to use direct attacks to attack you)
To be honest, there is actually some conflict between the Determined type and the Summoning type.
Because the biggest function of most level 2 summons, especially low-score level 2 summons, is to block attacks.
Since it has blocked the attack, the Determination card naturally cannot take the opportunity to recover energy.
So don’t underestimate this [Clown Funny Egg], it only requires 2 points of energy to release.
And it carries a secondary summoning card with control, so its initiative is quite high.
But it is basically impossible to release continuously.
"But at least with the existence of the Rune Crystal, I am guaranteed to have one free Funny Egg."
"It's this [Funny Turtle] that needs further strengthening."
“Otherwise, the intensity is a bit low and it’s not possible to perform very well at the table.”
So he lay down on the bench, closed his eyes and began to preview.
Ten minutes later, he sat up.
"This turtle card has a very high degree of integration."
Looking at the dozens of densely packed results, he nodded.
"Don't show me something so indecent as [Guilingao]."
I skipped some unreliable results and finally set my sights on one of them.
【Funny turtle】
Firm, 30 points, B
Attack 30, 100/100, 0/2
[Clown Appearance - Passive]: When the Funny Turtle reveals his card, he can make 1 target fall into [Taunt] for 1 round
[Turtle Health - Passive]: When Funny Turtle [Defends], gains 10 points of [Healing]
[Funny Egg - 2 Energy]: Funny Turtle selects a slot and summons [Funny Egg] at that slot.
【Funny Egg】
Wisdom, 0 points, D
Attack 0, 30/30, 1/1
[Funny Face - 1 Energy]: Funny Egg chooses 1 target and makes it [Taunt] for 1 round
(【Taunt】: Forces the opponent to use direct attacks to attack you)
"Damn, a top-notch product came out directly."
Seeing this result, Shi Li slapped it out without hesitation.
When the sign is unveiled, it [Taunts] 1 target, which seems very ordinary.
But it actually means a lot.
Because if the first row of cards is revealed, it means that in the first round, with the help of [Willow-Fire Boy], you can directly and stably take away a card from the opponent in some cases.
And the most crucial point is that when [Funny Turtle] releases this [Taunt], it does not occupy the behavior.
In other words, it can both [taunt] and [defend].
Make sure you don't get replaced during this round .
In my current summoning deck, this [Funny Turtle] can be called a top-quality B-level card.
"I'll leave the summoning deck here for now. Next, I need to see if I can get the [Wu Monkey]."
"Xiao B, are you there?"
So Shi Li called out that familiar name.
[Little B is here. Little B is always here.]
Little B appeared quite quickly , as if he had been waiting nearby the whole time.
"Help me select some books on 'Secondary Card Enhancement of Transformation Cards/Derivative Cards'."
[Okay, based on similar searches, should we add content related to 'Secondary Card Enhancement of Summoning Cards'? ]
"Hmm...how many are there?"
[117 books on summoning, 56 books on transformation cards/derivative cards]
"There are so many. How long do we have to watch them?"
Not to mention the summoning cards, I don’t know how long it will take to read the 56 books alone.
"Well, let me ask more directly."
He simply took out the [Wu Hou], pressed it on Xiao B's scanner, and described his needs.
[Beep, beep, beep...data received]
[Combined with the previous questions, searching for relevant information]
【Books found, 2 books in total】
"Has the scope been reduced so much all of a sudden?"
"Then bring them all to me."
Shi Li simply crossed his legs on the chair.
After a while, Little B came back with two books and handed them to him.
The first one is "Introduction to Strengthening Secondary Cards in Non-Summoning Directions".
Just by looking at the name, I know that this is the basic theoretical knowledge that I am looking for.
But this second one...
"Record of Rumored Creatures"
"What I want is a book on card enhancement. Why are you giving me a record like this?"
Shi Li expressed his dissatisfaction and confusion to Xiao B.
[Page 321, there is suspected relevant information]
This is how Little B answered.
"Uh, is that so..."
Shi Li thought about it and took the lead in opening the "Record of Rumored Creatures".
This book is thick, big and heavy.
Instead of turning directly to page 321, he opened the introduction first.
"So that's how it is..."
After reading the introduction, I roughly understood what the main content of this book is about.
First of all, you should know that there is no card-playing session in some copies.
But this does not affect the possibility of encountering a BOSS inside.
To defeat these bosses, players need to rely on means other than playing cards.
And in this situation, most of the time the players need to take part in the game themselves.
Therefore, whether the player has sufficient understanding of the BOSS's species, habits, weaknesses, etc. may very likely affect the success rate of the player's strategy.
If it was just an ordinary BOSS that wasn't too difficult to defeat, it would be fine.
But what should we do if we encounter some rare situations where the opponent is an extremely powerful and rare BOSS?
Therefore, the purpose of this book is to collect information about various powerful species so that players can learn about their background and other information in advance, so as to avoid being completely clueless when they really encounter them.
Of course, this is just a travelogue.
Whether the contents of the book are true or false, and how true they are, remains to be discussed.
To put it simply, it is a bit like extracurricular reading material, and can also be read as entertainment.
No one would be stupid enough to try to defeat a boss based on just a book.
"Let me see the table of contents... Page 321..."
"Um?"
"Is it really this?"
When Shi Li saw the three words "Great Sage Monkey" on the catalog, he was stunned.
He immediately turned to page 321 in the catalog.
[Legend has it that there was a monkey in the chaos, born from a stone...]
The first few paragraphs were almost the same as what Shi Li knew, with not much difference.
But the following few sentences were a bit out of line with his understanding.
[After the Great Monkey attained enlightenment, he enjoyed traveling through various worlds]
[And using the incarnation technique, leaving many traces in the heavens]
[Of course, there are also many blood species left behind]
"Isn't this what it means to be busy reproducing in various worlds?"
"Why do I feel that this style is inexplicably similar to that of a straw man?"
After reading it, he couldn't help but complain.
The key point is this paragraph, it doesn't seem to mention how to deal with the Monkey King if you really encounter him.
Of course, he had never thought about meeting the Great Sage Monkey, and even if he did, would he really need to deal with him?
"If we interpret it completely according to the contents of this rumor."
"Then this text is the only useful information for me."
"The Great Saint Monkey was once a stone monkey."
"Then the original fighting monkey may be its bloodline that has been passed down for countless generations."
"But even if it's like this, so what?"
"Even if I am related to the Great Sage Monkey, how can my [Wu Monkey] become the [Great Sage]?"
"Should we ask the ancestor gods to possess us?"
He even laughed as he said this.
Not to mention, when he was chatting with Boss N that day, the other party actually mentioned this case.
A-level cards are temporarily transformed into S-level cards on the table in a manner similar to that of summoning gods.
This kind of card might be the ultimate form of transformation card.
But the other person is playing with a side card, and he is not playing with a side card now.
It's good to have ideas, but they are too far away at the moment.
"It's just a record of what I saw and heard. It's actually of little reference value."
"I might as well see how to make my [Wu Monkey] stronger first."
After putting the "Record of Rumored Creatures" back on Little B's head, Shi Li picked up another book "Introduction to Strengthening Secondary Cards in Non-Summoning Directions".
Two hours passed in the blink of an eye.
Shi Li withdrew his gaze and closed the book.
"It's really close to the principle I imagined."
He rubbed the bridge of his nose.
First of all, all transformation cards/derivative cards need to meet certain conditions in order to complete the transformation.
These conditions are often varied and can be divided into reversible and irreversible.
For example, the health value drops to a certain level.
[Wu Hou] and [Ice Blin King] are such cards.
And they will only be triggered when the health value reaches 0.
For example, energy consumption reaches a certain level.
Strictly speaking, [Hua Yulu] can barely be considered to belong to this type.
For example, how many rounds you survive after the card is revealed.
It is a card similar to the second stage [Master of Martial Arts Tower].
For example, the number of times you are hit, the ratio of enemy and friendly cards on the field , and the number of times the scene cards are changed.
There are many, many conditions, too numerous to count.
There are more than ten types that Shi Li could name right away from what he had seen in the second level of authority in the card hall.
Now it is fortunate for him.
The transformation conditions of [Wu Hou] belong to the mainstream of the relatively common category.
That is, when the health value returns to 0, the transformation is triggered.
Why say thankful.
Because transformation cards/derivative cards want to change the appearance of secondary products, the conditions for shuffling the cards are much more stringent.
That is, first of all, both the main card and the material card must be transformation cards/derivative cards.
And their triggering conditions should be as close as possible.
The closer they are, the easier it is to blend.
In addition, even if the triggering conditions of two cards are exactly the same, it does not mean that they can be fused.
It also depends on the compatibility between the cards.
That’s why the conditions for improving the quality of the secondary product are quite harsh.
Of course, if you have suitable material cards, you can do it in one step without so much trouble.
"Fortunately, I anticipated this situation and was prepared."
At this time, Shi Li rubbed his hands and took out 10 cards.
Seven of them were drawn from the two million-card pools after [Way of Balance].
One of them was obtained as a reward for completing the first two or three levels of [Way of Balance].
There are also 2 pictures that are the output of other previous copies.
These cards are all transformation cards/derivative cards.
And all triggering conditions involve loss of health points.
"All of them are here. Unfortunately, only 5 of them have their health points reduced to 0."
"The remaining 5 cards are the blood loss percentage."
He didn't know before that only those whose "health value is reduced to 0" can have a higher degree of integration with the Stone Monkey.
The 5 non-zero cards were chosen because they looked better on the surface.
"A 1:10 preview doesn't take much time or mental effort."
"And [Wu Monkey] must be the main card, so there are only 10 previews in total."
There was no need to close his eyes, Shi Li just needed to concentrate a little to get all the results.
"Haha, looks like I'm lucky."
"Seven of them are actually compatible."
This answer made him very happy.
But soon, the joy faded away.
"It's naturally a good thing to get more results, but..."
"But how do I decide the order?"
For example, [Wu Hou] can be fused with both cards A and B.
However, the product obtained after fusing brand A first cannot be fused with brand B again.
If you fuse brand B first, you can continue to fuse with brand A later.
So how should I judge now whether to go A first and then B, or B first and then A?
"Little B..."
In desperation, Shi Li pressed his forehead.
【Little B is here】
There was no other choice but to ask Little B to continue helping me find books.
It's not that he is thirsty for knowledge and enthusiastic about learning.
But without knowledge theory, it is difficult to take a step forward.
So after another two hours, Shi Li put down the book.
“It really helped me find relevant information.”
"At times like this, try to start with the simplest ingredients first."
The so-called most basic means only changing the data of the [Stone Monkey] but not changing the entry.
With a direction, Shi Li began to act boldly.
Two consecutive cards were rubbed against [Stone Monkey], causing its panel to change.
[Stone Monkey]: 60/60 → 100/100
"That's right, a card with 100 health points is considered normal."
"Otherwise, with 60 HP like before, even with the protection of [Petrify], it will still be very fragile."
Rubbing his hands, Shi Li was very satisfied with the result.
100 HP + 10 points of damage reduction from [Petrification] can greatly enhance the survivability of [Stone Monkey].
Then the next step is to truly start strengthening the [Stone Monkey].
"Let's start with you."
His eyes turned to one of the material cards.
【Sleepy, sleepy!】
In the card projection, a projection of a round-headed, round-brained creature that looked like a turtle jumped out of the card.
Compared to ordinary turtles, it looks more Q version.
Standing on the card surface, he made a slightly ugly turtle punch.
