With the congratulations from the two commentators, Shi Li returned to the player seat.
Huichun: "I know you will be fine."
Feng Xiaohu: "The players in this elimination round are really different. Your full sword deck only won one card."
Qingyu: "We are all worried about you."
Pingju: "Top 16, I am really envious of the guy who was eliminated yesterday."
Xiang Qi: "It's my turn to perform next, just watch."
Shi Li was welcomed by everyone.
But he was a little absent-minded at this time.
Thinking about the next plan.
This stage of the knockout round will last for 8 days, and it is only the 3rd day now.
Add the 5 days of rest, there are still about 10 days left.
If converted into time ratio, he can go back to the copy and complete another 100 days of collection tasks.
By the way, let Chu Shisan lead the way to find the lairs of those evil monsters, maybe we will get something.
Haven't exited the copy yet, so its memory must be there.
"By the way, have you received your rewards for the group stage?"
As soon as he sat down, Huichun asked him a question.
"Hmm? What reward?"
Shi Li was obviously stunned.
"I knew it. You were in the dungeon at the time and probably didn't receive the notification."
Feng Xiaohu helped to introduce.
"Just like the card draw bonus at the end of a dungeon stage."
"There will be rewards for each level you enter in the following card game stages."
"If you qualify from the group stage, you'll get a B-rank material."
"Advancing to the top 16 will give you two B-level materials."
"They are all distributed by the Lanlan City Card Players Association. Oh no, you have to enter their card library to choose."
"If you didn't get any in the group stage, you should be able to get 3."
"Just find the staff."
3 B-level materials, and they are optional.
Judging from the background of the Lanlan City Poker Players Association, the quality is definitely not bad.
"Okay, I'll go now."
So Shi Li made a decision.
"Eh? You don't want to watch me play cards anymore?"
Xiang Qi was stunned.
"Looking back at the video, I hope you don't lose."
Shi Li replied to him and then floated towards the staff on the sidelines.
After consultation, I got a positive answer.
So he came out of the puppet operating cabin and happily went there under the guidance of a special staff member.
Soon, Shi Li came to a room that looked like a small library.
The entire room here is emitting the light of various material cards, which makes people dizzy.
Moreover, these material cards are well organized, with corresponding applicable labels on each cabinet.
Shi Li looked around inside but didn't find the Kung Fu deck tag or the Summoning deck tag he wanted.
Instead, there were two cabinets with labels on them that attracted his attention.
One is a summoning card, and the other is actually... a dragon card.
The cabinet for summoning cards is large and quite full.
There must be hundreds of cards, but not all of them are B-level.
Most of them are actually of grade C, which is much more than grade B.
Then there is a small part which is A grade.
As for the cabinet with the dragon brand, it should not be called a cabinet.
It’s just the size of a drawer, and there are only two cards on it, 1B + 1A.
"Can I see an A-level card?"
Shi Li took the lead and pointed to the cabinet with the summoning card.
"Please."
The staff member smiled slightly and stretched out his hand to make a "please" gesture.
Anyway, they are all anti-theft, so there is no need to worry about them being stolen.
There aren't many A-level cards, only 3 in total.
Shi Li picked them all up immediately.
The three cards were an emerald green flute, a goat-head boxing glove, and a tattered-looking yellow talisman covered with unknown patterns.
[Magic Flute]: The favorite flute of the Forest Goblin, which has a certain compatibility with the Summoning Card
Judging from the material description, it seems to give skills such as summoning goblins.
Just the three words "Goblin" make it feel like a minion-level summoning skill.
[Imitation of the Sheep Horn Fist]: There is a very small chance of summoning a demigod
Demigod, sounds pretty cool.
But there is a very small chance that...
[Million Sorrow Talisman]: There is a high probability that a certain type of card will gain a summoning skill
Although it doesn't specify which type of card it is suitable for, you can guess it from the appearance and name.
Previewed them along with their own summoning deck.
Sadly, no results came out.
The best thing is to swallow the card, which is equivalent to giving the card a gold border.
So Shi Li turned to look at the B-level materials.
There are about 30 B-level summoning-related materials.
After browsing through all the pictures one by one, he actually found some that attracted him.
The projection of this material card is a black stone, and it is impossible to tell what it is.
[Meteorite]: Has a chance to enhance the appearance effect of summoned creatures
Unlike other material cards, this is the only material that Shi Li saw that is related to the appearance effect.
He didn't know what the appearance effect was specifically.
All I know is that this card is different.
So I took it out and previewed it with my own summoning deck.
The compatibility of this card may be a bit poor, and one card will be released for every preview.
But finally there was a successful answer.
"I see……"
Looking at the preview results in his mind, Shi Li was suddenly delighted.
【Horn Magician】
Listen to the Wind, 30 points, A
Attack 30, 100/100, 0/3
[Hellfire - 3 Energy]: The Horned Mage summons a [Hellfire], only once per game
Hellfire
Rage, 40 points, A
Attack 40, 150/150
[Large Size - Passive]: Hellfire occupies 2 slots in 1 row, HP +50
[Continuous Burning - Passive]: Hellfire deals 10 points of [Ignite] damage to adjacent units each round
[Heavenfire Coming - Passive]: When Hellfire appears, it deals 40 points of [True Damage] to each card slot it occupies. If there is a target and the target leaves the field, it will occupy the card slot in advance and appear in the next round.
Since this card was previously fused with the [Top-Grade Dimensional Demon Strengthening Stone], it is already a gold-edged card.
Therefore, it can be directly fused with B-level materials, adding new skills to become an A-level card.
It turns out that the so-called appearance effect is like this.
It is to help [Hellfire] come better!
A powerful elite summon like it is actually more afraid of one type of card.
That is a minion-level summon.
Yes, the summoned creature itself can also restrain the summoned creature.
Since minion-level summons have lower requirements, they can easily take up a slot before elite-level summons.
The new entry of [Hellfire] perfectly solves the problem of grids being occupied by minion-level summons.
I will smash you down to death first, and then I will be considered to have successfully summoned you in the next round.
If it fails to kill the enemy, it is equivalent to the [Horned Mage] releasing an AOE of 40+40=80 [True Damage], which is not a loss to be honest.
Furthermore, if the summoning is unsuccessful, it does not take up the once per game summoning limit.
In this way, the effectiveness of the [Horn Magician] is greatly enhanced.
Before the summon is completed, it can become an AOE hand.
80 points of [True Damage] AOE, which is quite impressive.
Then the difficulty of summoning [Hellfire] is also greatly reduced.
Because this is a giant card, its requirement for an empty card slot is much more difficult than that of an ordinary single-slot summoning card.
The only weakness is that it used to appear in the 4th round from charging to summoning, but now it takes an extra round to attack AOE, so it appears in the 5th round.
Of course, if the card position is originally empty, it will naturally appear in the 4th round.
"I'd like to choose this one, please."
So he picked up the [Meteorite] and signaled to the staff.
"Of course, please wait a moment, I will apply for it right away."
The staff nodded.
"Don't bother, just wait for me to pick three first."
Hearing this, Shi Li put down the [Meteorite] again.
Go take a look at the cabinet with the dragon cards. There are only two cards anyway.
First, let’s take a look at the A-level material card.
Its projection is a tooth that doesn't look special. If you don't look at the name of the card, you wouldn't know that it is a dragon's tooth.
But the light cannot deceive anyone, it is a genuine A-grade material card.
[Blue Dragon Fang]: There is a chance that the dragon card will gain blue dragon related skills
The introduction of this card is simple, direct and clear.
However, he only had a few dragon cards in his hand, and [Evil Dragon], [Mechanical Sin Dragon], and [Master of Martial Arts Tower] were all A-level cards.
I previewed all the cards, including the A-level cards, but there was not a single acceptable result.
A-level cards are swallowed directly, and non-A-level cards are also swallowed.
Its function is just like adding a gold border to a dragon badge that is not grade A.
Maybe only cards specific to the Blue Dragon can be better compatible with it.
Of course, if you ask Shi Li whether he wants it or not, he will definitely want it.
I am currently putting together a dragon deck, but there are so few dragon deck materials.
He didn’t know if the reward after winning the next round would be an A-grade material card. If so, he would choose this one.
Look at that B-grade material card again.
Its projection is a pair of wings that look like a miniature version of a dragon.
[Dark Wings]: There is a chance that the dragon card will gain related skills
It seems that this B-level card may be more compatible than the [Blue Dragon Fang] mentioned above.
Because it is not like [Blue Dragon Fang], which is marked as a blue dragon-related skill.
“This is the one I…”
"Sorry, I want this one."
As a result, when Shi Li just turned around to look at the staff, he felt his hand lighten.
"Um?"
He looked back and found that he actually knew the other person.
"Your Excellency, we meet again."
This person has short silver hair and blue horns.
Wearing ancient Chinese costume and holding a paper fan.
Beneath his elegant appearance, there is an evil spirit that cannot be hidden.
It's the devil.
Shi Li's first reaction was to look at the other person's feet.
There is no circle of red light.
I don’t know whether the blocking was activated or I failed the assessment.
I feel that this person has a weird temperament and doesn't seem like the type who can be a manager.
"How about giving me this card?"
At this time, Shi Mo held the card and asked with a smile.
Shi Li was very good at reading micro-expressions. The other person's smile contained a hint of madness, the kind of madness that was crazy.
"What if I don't?"
He had no intention of giving it up.
Regardless of whether you like or dislike this person, it is difficult to judge based on just a few encounters.
But this is a dragon material card, and a B-grade card can be considered a 1.5B material card.
"There is no first come first served in the deck."
At this time, the staff member behind Shi Mo spoke: "If there is a dispute, it should be resolved in the way of poker players."
"Yes, all you need to do is play a card game under our witness."
The staff at Shili added.
"That's perfect. I see you... you also made it to the top 16, right?"
Shi Mo rolled his eyes and covered his mouth with his fan: "Then let's practice first?"
"It's just a reward for qualifying from the previous group stage. I haven't played my round yet."
At that time, his expression remained unchanged.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Just think of it as me practicing with you."
" How about a simple one, 6+1?"
Shi Mo suggested.
"Okay, come on then."
Shi Li looked at the staff.
"Okay, then you two please get ready."
The staff waved their hands and directly put out a 6+1 card table.
Buzz!
This sudden game of cards was actually not quite in line with Shi Li’s expectations.
As for the Kung Fu deck, I want to keep it hidden until the finals.
Wang Defa, who was using the sword deck, had just left the stage and was not convenient to go on stage again.
Then we have to let Mushroom use the summoning deck to come on stage.
The 6+1 deck has fewer card slots, so perhaps the summoning deck is not very advantageous.
But, you can still try it.
Without much thought, he simply waved his hand and arranged the cards generously.
The opponent's card display speed is also not bad.
Not wanting to waste time, Shi Li didn't wait and unveiled the sign directly.
The first row of cards from left to right are: [Wilson's Boy], [Rune Crystal], and [Funny Turtle].
【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
[Funny Egg - 2 Energy]: Funny Turtle chooses a slot and summons [Funny Egg] at that slot.
【Funny Egg】
Balanced, 0 points, B
Attack 0, 50/50
[Funny Face - Passive]: The turn the funny egg appears, choose 1 target and make it fall into [Taunt] for 1 turn
(This is a remastered version)
As always, [Wilson's Boy ] opened the gap.
【Funny Turtle】Attracts some damage and recharges energy at the same time.
【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.
Then [Rune Crystal] is used to resist damage and assist, and to average the points.
As for the scene card, he chose the more common [Big Fish Storm].
I have never used this card in a tournament, so others cannot recognize it.
"Oh~Summoning a deck."
Looking at these three cards, Shi Mo rolled up his sleeves and said with a smile: "It's just 2B+D."
"Brother, are you looking down on me?"
As he spoke, he revealed the card on his left.
[You can't block my punch! ]
On the card, a bald man wearing a Zen robe with half of his shoulder exposed and a thick stone shell on his face walked out from the light column.
“…”
Looking at this projection, Shi Li thought of Feng Xiaohu’s previous introduction.
The talent of this enchanter is the ability to return to the native world to complete tasks.
Then this card is most likely from its native world.
Shi Mo himself has horns on his head, and this big bald guy is also thicker-skinned than stone.
It seems that the original world he lives in is a bit like a world where humans and monsters are mixed.
However, when he saw the cards, Shi Li couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
[Stone Clan Warrior Monk]
Break, 30 points, B
Attack 50, 100/100, 0/2
[Unkillable Fist - Passive]: If the Stone Clan Monk would kill, the damage will be 0
[Three Fists of the Stone - Passive]: During the 3 rounds when the Stone Clan Monk reveals his card, his attack power increases by 20
[Stone Smash - 2 Energy]: Stone Clan Monk attacks 1 target, dealing (50) + 10 damage
At first I thought it was a firm card, but it turned out to be a broken card.
And it's a card that explodes at the beginning.
A 30-point card can deal 160 points of damage in 3 rounds, which is quite powerful.
But its strong attack also came at a price.
That means you cannot participate in the kill.
In other words, this is a pure health-lowering card.
First, cripple your opponent, and then let your teammates finish him off in the next round.
A rather peculiar mechanism.
If we were to give it a rating, Shi Li would give this card a score of 3.5, which is considered a very good B-grade card.
In fact, these are not the key points. What really concerns Shi Li is...
This is actually a Kung Fu card!
If you think about it carefully, it makes sense. The other party claims to be from some sect.
Then in the world he lives in, there may be more Kung Fu cards.
Then, Shi Mo revealed the card on the right.
【This day next year will be your day next year! 】
A burly man with a coarse cloth headband on his head and brass knuckles on his hands jumped out of the card.
[Undefeated Boxer]
Chasing the Wind, 30 points, B
Attack 30, 100/100, 0/3
[Warrior - Passive]: When the Undefeated Boxer attacks, the damage received is -10
[Indiscriminate - Passive]: After the Undefeated Boxer uses a skill, the next round's attack ignores [Defense]
[Strong Competitiveness - 3 Energy]: The Undefeated Boxer chooses a target. If his score is higher than the target, he gains 30 points of [Healing]. If his score is lower than the target, he gains 1 round of [Encouragement].
([Encouragement]: Gain 20 attack points)
This is a card with a high degree of freedom and excellent output capabilities.
When releasing a skill, you also have the opportunity to choose whether to restore yourself or gain a 1-turn burst.
As for the rating, Shi Li thinks it would be around 3 to 3.1 points.
After all, the damage reduction of [Attack] is actually slightly inferior.
And if you want to really deal burst damage, it takes 4 rounds.
There are bigger flaws in the round when releasing skills.
Again, this is a Kung Fu card.
Judging from this situation, the opponent is very likely to use a Kung Fu deck.
This made Shi Li feel a little fresh.
After all, it was the first time that he was beaten by someone using the Kung Fu deck that he was good at.
This experience is weird.
After the first row of cards on both sides were revealed, the demon placed his hand on the card in the middle.
"Since you just said that you played 2B in the first row, I'll also play 2B."
Then Shi Mo revealed his middle card.
[Qi is the source of all things]
Accompanied by a leisurely female voice, golden light overflowed from the card.
Wow, a grade-A Kung Fu card.
