[More...flesh and blood! ]
The old swordsman who had transformed into a beast, holding an energy sword made of red light, stood on the card and roared.
The appearance has been slightly modified and it is no longer so thin.
It could even be said that its body was plump, but its eyes were bloodshot and its skin was the dry gray color unique to zombies.
【Sword Mourning】
Rage, 40 points, A
Attack 40, 130/130
[Obsession - Passive]: Sword Sang's maximum health +30
[Carnivore - Passive]: After Jiansang attacks, he gains 10 points of [Healing]
[Bloodthirst - Passive]: When the Sword Slayer's HP is less than or equal to 50 points, the effect of [Flesh Eater] is doubled.
[Life-Devouring Sword - Passive]: Jiansang's attacks ignore [Defense], but lose 30 HP per round
"Wow, this is a very typical Berserker card."
"It has all the characteristics that a rage card should have."
"Thick health, burns health, self-recovery, high attack power and ignores defense."
"Then the tactic is to slow down your blood loss by continuously attacking. After your blood line is reduced to a certain level, you can enter a relatively slow blood loss state."
However, Shi Li knew that this card had a high health value of 130 points.
But in fact it is not very suitable to be the first to unveil the plaque.
Because it can only play its role by attacking continuously, and [defense] is a disadvantage.
Moreover, the not-so-uncommon mechanism of recovering health through attack often has a flaw.
That is the difference in priority between [Attack] and [Treatment].
Once the health value reaches 0, no matter how strong the blood sucking is, it will be of no use.
Therefore, its 130 health points are not used to withstand damage, but to burn itself.
It is a bit similar to [Source of Violence], but although [Source of Violence] cannot accept the recovery effect of the outside world, its survivability is much stronger than it. It can kill enemies and restore blood, and it can also summon monsters to block the knife.
If you put [Sword Mourning] in the second row of cards, it will be easier to perform brilliantly.
In other words, it is easier to open up the situation by revealing it in the middle of the game and using the characteristics of 40 attack + ignoring [defense].
"Overall, it doesn't look like there's much room for me to shuffle the cards."
"But the entries are all good. It can be considered a pretty good A-level card."
"The number of alternatives is far less than the number of draws, so it's not too much to list this card as a must-have."
That being said, Shi Li did not take it down right away.
If you include these alternatives, your sword deck will now be relatively complete.
Balanced ones are: [Female Thief] [Male Thief] [Demon-killing Puppet]
The violent ones are: [Sword Mourning] [Golden Bell Envoy]
The wise ones are: [Leader Frog]
The ones that can break the trend are: [Scavenger] [Nameless Sword Spirit] [Break the Balance Sword]
Those who are determined are: Um, it seems that there is none
Those chasing the wind are: [Sword Dancer] [Captain of the Doram]
Those who listen to the wind are: [Blind Swordsman] [Demon Exorcist]
“That’s 13 already.”
"Even if we remove the more targeted [Demon Slayer Puppet], [Demon Slayer], and [Scavenger], there are still 10 cards."
"Theoretically, if the board is fully loaded, it would be 11 sword cards...hiss."
"【Nameless Sword Spirit】 can get a 55-point bonus to attack power at least. This is too f*cking terrifying. Oh my god."
However, Shi Li also knew that this was only a theoretical state, and it was easier to achieve in a PVE deck.
For a real PVP table, it would be great if it could have 30 attack points.
"Compared to the Kung Fu deck, the strength of my sword deck is definitely not that high."
“But in terms of mechanics, it’s much richer than the Kung Fu deck.”
"For Kung Fu decks, there are more hard and soft control cards, and for Sword decks, there are more restraining cards."
"Each has its own strengths, and mixing and matching is a good choice when necessary."
"What we are lacking right now are mainly the sword cards of the Steadfast type."
"If you want more tactics, then it's best to have all seven categories without bias."
"The number of Wind-Listening Sword Cards and Wisdom Sword Cards is actually not that many."
"But next I can go to [The Way of Listening to the Wind] or [The Way of Wisdom], it shouldn't be difficult to supplement."
"Generally speaking, I feel that my sword card is now presentable enough."
“4A+5B is also valuable.”
"It should be enough to handle the first half of the competition, especially since the confidentiality mechanism of this competition system is said to be quite good."
"With the existence of the puppet operation cabin, no one knows who I am before the game starts, so it is difficult to target me based on the historical deck."
"Compared to Kung Fu cards, Sword cards are definitely more popular."
"If someone sees into this in advance, who knows what cards they will reveal to target us."
"Of course, the upside is that sword cards are easier to collect."
"Just from this high-quality dungeon, I got these two cards: [Scavenger] and [Sword Mourning]... Huh?!"
As Shi Li was talking, he had already previewed the last card.
[Look for my sword...]
In the card projection, an old man who was as thin as a skeleton and dressed in tattered clothes was floating in the air with his legs crossed.
There is no doubt that this is the other card that Shi Li was expecting, the card of the old man with sword.
But here, it has a different name.
Sword Seeker
Wisdom, 0 points, A
Attack 0, 50/50, 4/4
[Watching from the Sidelines - Passive]: Swordseeker's health limit -50, can be placed in any card slot
[The Great Time is Coming - Passive]: The Sword Seeker loses 1 energy point each round and leaves the field when the energy is exhausted.
[Soul Absorption - Passive]: When the Sword Seeker participates in a kill this round, he will recover 1 energy point
[This Sword is Good - Passive]: When the Sword Seeker reveals his card, he can make one of his own sword cards retire and inherit its attack power.
(Note: Thanks to the designer [Hakurei Linghuan] for providing the concept)
“It’s here, it’s finally here!”
When he saw this card, Shi Li couldn't help but wave his fist vigorously.
Although [Breaking Sword] is also great, he always felt uneasy since he had used up one of the two [Nameless Sword Spirit].
Sometimes when I dream, it seems like there are always some shadows in the void pointing fingers at me.
Now, another sword card with 0 points that can be placed in the ace row as a non-ace is here!
"Although [Sword Seeker] is an A-level card, [Nameless Sword Spirit] is a B-level card."
"In general, each has its own strengths."
"But why do I feel that the quality of [Nameless Sword Spirit] seems to be higher than that of [Sword Seeker]?"
"Because the restrictions of [Sword Seeker] are really too many."
"If it becomes a wild card, or the opponent has [quantum entanglement], it is quite easy to deal with it."
"But as long as I'm in a good position, even if others clear it in front of the Sword Seeker, it should have almost run out of energy."
“So these few negatives are harmless.”
"The advantage of this card over [Nameless Sword Spirit] is that its upper limit is not that high, but it is stable."
"The attack power of [Nameless Sword Spirit] will change according to the number of sword cards on the field. In theory, it will become weaker in the later stages."
"Although the Sword Seeker has a limited number of rounds, it can provide stable output in each round."
"And when a sword card is about to be killed, revealing the Sword Seeker to gain its attack power is equivalent to ensuring that the attack power of the retired card is not wasted."
"In general, each has its own advantages and disadvantages."
This time, Shi Li no longer needs to be listed as a backup.
Because [Swordseeker] was the last card previewed, after seeing this, he had already decided which cards to choose.
【Card selection completed】
【Please receive the Cube Coin reward】
After selecting the card, a cubic coin floated in front of him.
"I knew I wouldn't be disappointed. The organizers gave me some benefits."
Shi Li took it and looked, and found that there were 50,000 cubic coins.
In this way, he now has 70,000 cubic coins.
You can go to a specialty store and get it done.
However, he felt that only those who advanced should receive such high rewards.
I'll find someone to compare it with later and I'll know.
After completing the whole procedure, Shi Li's body began to feel light.
After a few seconds, his vision blurred and he reappeared in the conference room.
"Look, what I told you before."
"He must have been the last one to come out."
As soon as he returned to reality, he saw four people led by Qingyu surrounding him.
Unlike Shi Li who was still a small elf light ball, these four people had already come out of the puppet operating cabin and were using their real bodies.
In addition to Qingyu, from left to right they are:
An elephant-headed man with an elephant's head.
A tall female elf.
A robot full of technology.
"Hello, my name is Xiang Qi."
The elephant-headed man first extended his trunk and introduced: "It is the [Today] in the dungeon. Thank you very much this time."
"The elephant-headed people's gesture is equivalent to the human handshake."
"It's a friendly gesture. They call it a nose hold."
Qingyu explained.
"Hello."
After listening to this, Shi Li paused for half a second, then conjured up a hand and shook the other person's nose.
I secretly complained in my mind, this name... Why do I feel like I already know what deck the other party is best at?
"Hello, my name is Shesidel, and I'm also [Thursday]."
The female elf extended her hand to Shi Li.
Shi Li: "Hello."
He learned a foreign language on Blue Star, and it seemed that the transliteration of Thursday was Shesidel.
"Hello, my name is V-50."
Finally it’s the robot’s turn.
Shi Li: "Hello."
Wow, this one didn’t even change its name. Should we say it’s lazy or honest?
Then everyone expressed their gratitude to Shi Li again.
After all, if it weren't for Shi Li, the four of them would have probably died in the ambush.
Afterwards, Shi Li also got some information from them.
Although their group No. 21 was not the last group to finish, it was still relatively late.
So the four people got a lot of information from other groups.
First of all, just as Shi Li expected, not everyone gets an A-level zombie template card.
I won’t talk about the eliminated players, I’ll just talk about the top 5 players who advanced from each group.
What many people got was just a revised B-level template.
As for Qingyu and the other three, they only got Grade B.
After some communication, the advanced players came to the conclusion that the grade of this zombie template card seemed to be related to the number of swallows.
Only players who swallow more than 20 will get the A-level template.
The players who swallowed 0 were given a C grade, and those between 0 and 20 were given a B grade.
And Shi Li swallowed 70+, so it goes without saying that he got the A-level template.
Then, the Cubic Coin rewards for the top 5 players who advance are all 50,000.
And the 95 people who were eliminated only accounted for a pitiful 5,000.
It is equivalent to concentrating everyone’s rewards on the five people who advance.
And for the eliminated contestants, they drew 1 and got a C~A grade zombie template, which is not a loss.
In addition, among the 5 people in the other groups in this dungeon competition, most of them have the zombie template that summons and explodes soldiers.
Although most players are not as exaggerated as Shi Li, as long as they can stay alive and slowly accumulate troops, this type of template does have advantages.
Of course, there were also a few people who were similar to Shi Li, who gathered a large army and used the tactics of slaughtering the city in the sea of ​​zombie beasts.
However, there were variables in two groups.
Among the five people who advanced, there was no template for the explosive soldier flow zombie beast.
After asking around, I found out that these two groups' templates for explosive troop flow had met their nemesis.
In one of the groups, there was a player who was very foresighted and brought a skill that could take control of the summoned creature.
So in the end, their group's template of accumulating troops ended up being a waste of time for others.
The other group is even more powerful.
There was a player who had that kind of growth skill, relying on powerful AOE means + harvesting summons in exchange for growth values, and eventually became a panel monster with thousands of points.
In this regard, Shi Li could only say that he was lucky not to have encountered such a nemesis.
Even during the sweep, he didn't encounter many players with strong AOE skills.
There were a few of them, but they were all eliminated by the Qingyu team.
After listening to the information they collected, Shi Li had a relative understanding of this dungeon competition.
After this competition, there will be a 5-day break.
He already had his own plan. After saying goodbye to Xiang Qi and the other two, he began to control the elf to return to the puppet operating cabin.
Qingyu followed because they lived in the same place and were going the same way.
After the two were alone, Shi Li also learned about the situations of several other acquaintances from Qingyu.
Feng Xiaohu and Ping Ju both advanced successfully.
But Huichun was still in the copy and did not come out.
After a while, Shi Li's real body crawled out of the operating cabin.
"By the way, we have five days of rest. Xiaohu will take us to visit the scenic spots in Lanlan City tomorrow. Would you like to come?"
Qingyu who was waiting nearby asked.
"Are you guys so carefree? Do you think you have a sure win in the next game?"
Shi Li frowned and asked back.
"Well, it's just one day of fun. The remaining four days will of course be spent on practice."
Qingyu flapped his feather wings.
Like other card halls, the Balance Card Hall flagship store in Lanlan City also has simulated card tables and card libraries.
Shi Li had already greeted that place a long time ago, and now he was going to practice using their deck of cards.
Although Director Xiu once proudly said that even the card inventory of Director Feng's card hall could not compare to that of the Xiu card hall.
But he felt that for a card hall that big, the inventory couldn't be that bad.
It's always good to see some new cards.
But today, he doesn't plan to go to the card gym to practice.
Instead, he planned to go find Director Feng.
Now that I have more than 70,000 cubic coins in my hands, I am active again.
What the sword deck lacks most at the moment is a proper scene card.
[Luanwagang] can only charge the [Broken Sword] and can only provide [Frog Soldiers] to temporarily increase the attack of [Nameless Sword Spirit].
But there is no improvement for other sword cards.
Director Feng had already given him the recipe scrolls for two scene cards, so Shi Li felt that the other party should have special channels.
I don't know if asking will yield any results.
So the two of them walked out of the operating cabin while chatting.
Shi Li: "How many groups have not yet decided the winner?"
Qingyu: "It seems there is only one group left."
Shi Li: "Isn't that Huichun's group? It's been a long time, but they haven't come out yet."
Qingyu: "Maybe he'll be eliminated due to some unexpected event, hahaha."
As they said this, they suddenly heard a roar from Conference Room 13.
“Ahhhhhhhh, I’m so pissed off!”
The puppet's voice was unrecognizable, but one could tell it was very angry.
"Um, among your Winged People, are there any Crow Winged People?"
Shi Li was stunned for a moment and looked at Qingyu.
"Huh? That's me, what's wrong?"
Qingyu looked puzzled, wondering why he asked this.
"..., let's go and take a look."
Shi Li thought to himself that Qingyu might be born with a bad mouth.
When I arrived at the door of Conference Room 13, the voice inside was still roaring.
" Who is the [Corpse Demon]? Stand out!"
"Don't be afraid to take responsibility for what you have done!"
"What's the point of being arrogant in a dungeon?"
"Let's play a game of cards right now!"
"Betting on your card player qualification, do you dare?"
It sounds like someone was eliminated by a contestant codenamed "Corpse Demon" and is feeling unconvinced.
"Huh? Did you two finish it?"
Just then, a small elf ball of light walked out from inside.
The one who could recognize Shi Li and Qing Yu was undoubtedly Hui Chun.
"Did you advance?"
Shi Li was the first to express concern.
"I did advance, but the experience is..."
Huichun seemed to want to say something but stopped herself.
"What's going on in there?"
Qingyu peered inside curiously.
All the advanced Huichun have come out, which means the copy has ended.
She stuck her head and peeked inside, and saw that in addition to the staff, there were five other elf light balls in the conference room, making a total of six including Huichun.
In other words, the one who is angry now is the last contestant to be eliminated. No wonder he is so excited, he was just so close to advancing.
"I'm going to return to my body first, and I'll tell you in detail later."
Huichun looked back inside and then floated towards the cabin.
After a while, he turned back into human form.
"Let me tell you, my group's dungeon process was a complete mess."
"It's mainly because of the emergence of an extremely strong perverted contestant."
"The key is that he is really abnormal, not only in terms of strength, but also in terms of personality."
It can be seen that Huichun’s experience is really bad.
