Chapter 473 Final Four
After matching the deck, the game is about to begin.
However, before the game started, Shi Li discovered that the game seemed to have changed when he was specially configuring the deck.
From the previous 0/999, it became 0/9.
“Oh my god, wouldn’t that mean it’s reduced to 1% of its original size?
There are such good things.”
Shi Li felt that this seemed to be the time when his S-level missions were reduced the most.
However, when the monster cards appeared next, he found that the problem did not seem that simple.
The first wave of monsters is a monster called [One-hearted Demon].
A black outline human figure with no facial features and blurred details.
【One Heart Demon】
Berserk, Attack 40, ??? / ???
[Heart Eater - Passive]: For every Heart Devil card that is retired from the field, the upper limit of the Heart Devil's health value increases by 10%
[Devote Heart - Passive]: When a Heart Demon leaves the field, the Heart Demon card on the field gains 5 attack points, which can be accumulated.
It’s simple, just two entries, but I frowned when I read them.
I don’t know if it’s because the waves were reduced, so they compensated in terms of strength.
It is still the same as in the original 999 waves, and the monster strength is like this.
The first is the question mark's health, which makes it difficult to judge its strength.
Generally, only BOSS cards in PVE games will be like this.
As a result, the opponent now has 10 [One-Minded Demon] cards, all of which have question mark health.
Then the entry that increases the upper limit of health by 10% is also a very rare percentage-type entry.
These are basically terms that only appear in PVE monster cards and rarely appear in the player's cards.
If the percentages are handled properly, it is possible to stack up unbalanced panel monster cards.
Take the current card game for example.
After the first 9 [One-hearted Demon] are retired, the last [One-hearted Demon] will be superimposed with 110% to the power of 8, which is 214% of the health.
214% may not seem like much, but you need to know that we don't know what its base health is.
Then the previous superposition process is also terrible.
When the first [One Heart Demon] leaves the field, stack 10% for the remaining 9 [One Heart Demons].
When the second [One Heart Demon] is out of the game, stack another 10% on the remaining 8 [One Heart Demon].
Not only in terms of health, but also in terms of attack power, they will be stacked very directly.
When there is only one [Issue] left on the field, its attack power will be as high as 85 points.
However, Shi Li could accept this aspect.
Because it does not increase blindly, but has a curve.
When the first [One-Hearted Demon] leaves the field, the opponent will lose its current 40 attack points.
Then increase the attack power of the remaining 9 [One-Minded Demon] cards by 5 points each, which is equivalent to 45 points.
In this round, the opponent earned 5 points.
When the second [One Heart Demon] retires, it loses 45 points of its current attack power.
The remaining 8 [One-Minded Demon] cards each increase attack power by 5 points, equivalent to 40 points.
This time I lost 5 points.
When the second [One Heart Demon] retires, it loses 50 points of its current attack power.
The remaining 7 [One-Minded Demon] cards each increase attack power by 5 points, equivalent to 35 points.
This time I lost 15 points.
The further you go, the more you lose.
In other words, killing the opponent's card can still effectively reduce the opponent's output.
It’s just that this rhythm is slower than the normal killing.
"The first level here is high intensity."
Shi Li felt that this game of cards was indeed not easy.
In a 9+1 game, the opponent's upper limit of health is unknown, and the total attack power is as high as 400 points.
It's a pure intensity challenge.
Assuming that, like most PVEs, the front row of the opponent defends to absorb damage, it can still output 7x40=280 points.
“Except for [False Saint] or giant cards with high health and 10 damage reduction, basically no card can withstand a wave of concentrated fire.
Someone like [Weapon Master] would be killed in seconds.
The [Crystal Dragon Queen] has 10 points of [Shield] per round, plus the protection of the [Dragon Banner Master], I can give it a try."
Moreover, Shi Li knew that although this game seemed to be a game of pure strength, there were actually loopholes.
That is the tried and tested special effect, [Seal].
Just in case, he did carry [Seal] in this deck.
That is the entry on the [Dragon Flag Master].
[Flag Seal - Passive]: When the Dragon Flag Master is on the field, when the target is attacked by Kung Fu or Dragon Cards 5 times or more in the same round, it will gain the [Seal] effect in the next round.
In my deck, there are two cards that are very easy to trigger this option.
The first one is naturally the [Soul Dragon].
If it receives 30 points of [Healing], it can deal 30 points of damage.
[Flag Seal] only requires 5 attacks, [Soul Dragon] can do it easily.
The second one is [Sheep God].
After the warm-up is completed, [Four Gods Chase] is a 4-hit combo. If you pair it with any other card, you can also easily trigger [Flag Seal].
And once [Four Gods Chase] is released once, it can be used continuously unlimitedly afterwards.
However, there will be some conflict between these two cards.
When [Soul Dragon] uses skills, it will draw energy from [Sheep God] because its universal tag belongs to the dragon card tag.
If you use [Four Gods Chase], you don't have to worry about being drawn.
Because [Four Gods Chase] consumes 3 energy points and restores 4 energy points.
And the priority of [Four Gods Chase] is at T2, and the priority of [Divine Light to Break the Shackles] is at T4.
Therefore, the extraction of [Divine Light that Breaks the Shackles] cannot hinder [Four Gods Chase].
However, if [Breaking the Shackles Divine Light] is used before [Sheep God] gathers the 3 energy points required by [Four Gods Chase], it will be prevented from warming up, and the energy will not increase.
Originally, the purpose of letting the Sheep God carry the Dragon Tag was to enjoy the permanent [Encouragement] of [Yinglong], but I didn't expect that he would be affected here.
However, Shi Li thought it was not a big problem.
The most important thing is to start the game first and see how much health the opponent has.
Anyway, you don't need to kill two [One Heart Demon] at once, so [Seal] one target is enough.
So after more than 30 minutes of fierce fighting, Shi Li finally won the first round.
After testing, the health points of these [One-Minded Demons] should be around 300 points.
During the process, he used [Seal] to clamp the opponent quite well, and in the end, the exit effect of [One-hearted Demon] was only triggered 3 times.
Then the deck on my side lost 1 card from the first row.
[False Saint] was beaten to death twice, but luckily he was revived with full health each time.
As for [Weapon Master], he was also preserved intact.
Shi Li chose to give the [Dragon Banner Master] the 10 points of damage reduction instead of protecting the [Crystal Dragon Queen].
Because [Weapon Master] has limited damage, it is the key to dealing with huge attack cards, so it is more worth keeping.
Of course, the Crystal Dragon Queen didn't really leave the stage completely.
[The Immortal of the Other Shore] [resurrected] it, turning it into a zombie beast tag with its energy limit halved and its health limit only 40 points.
In this way, the [Crystal Dragon Queen] will no longer be able to release the skill [Crystal Roar].
If you can't release [Crystal Roar], you can't summon [Crystal Fragments].
This is equivalent to losing 1 entry for the active skill and 1 entry on the second-level summon, for a total of 2 entries.
[Crystal Skin - Talent]: Crystal Dragon Queen is immune to any damage not exceeding 10 points
[Regeneration Crystal - Passive]: After the Crystal Dragon, gain 10 points of [Shield] each round
Only these two entries are valid.
But overall, something is better than nothing.
At least its energy limit is not 0, so you can just use it as a battery for the Soul Dragon.
The second wave of monster cards are obviously more powerful than the first wave.
This time, a strange creature appeared with a body covered in translucent flesh-colored flames.
Second Desire
Wisdom, Attack 40, ???/???, 10/10
[Desire - Passive]: Every time a card is retired, the second desire recovers 1 energy point
[Food - 1 Energy]: Select 1 target with the second desire, causing 10 points of [Fixed Damage]
[Appetite - 3 Energy]: Select 1 target with two desires and return its energy value to 0
These 10 cards also have question mark health points.
But for Shi Li, their threat level is actually not much different from that of [One-Minded Demon], and may even be smaller.
The focus of [One-Minded Demon] is on the stackable bonuses, and the deck's stat loss curve is smooth.
[Second Desire] is to restrain summoning cards. The second-level summoning cards can be quickly recharged when they are retired.
That’s the worst that can happen. Shi Li won’t use the second-level summoning card.
Then, his deck is not very afraid of the other two active skills of [Two Desires].
For 1 row of targets, there is only 10 points of [fixed damage].
It would be better if it just used normal attacks.
Of course, if normal attack encounters [Defense], it will become 20 points.
But there is no such concern for 10x3=30 points of [Fixed Damage], which is a more stable output method.
The key point is that [Crystal Dragon Queen] happens to have an attribute with a higher weight than [Fixed Damage].
It is immune to damage up to and including 10 points.
Therefore, this [Eater] is not that difficult for him. At most, he can inflict a total of 20 points of damage on [False Saint] and [Weapon Master]. There is nothing to be afraid of.
Unless the opponent has 10 cards, you should use all [Body Eater] at the beginning to reduce the health of [False Saint] and [Weapon Master] to zero at the same time.
Then there is no need to worry about [appetite].
It seems to be even more terrifying than [Quantum Entanglement], and it can reduce your energy to 0 in one go.
But [False Saint] is a balanced card and has no energy.
The energies of [Weapon Master] and [Crystal Dragon Queen] are of little use, so it can just deduct them as it pleases.
As a result, when the game really started, Shi Li realized that he had underestimated his opponent.
Those 10 monster cards really gave him a wave of concentrated firepower from the [Eater].
In this way, the [False Saint] will directly turn into a [Stone Monkey], and the [Weapon Master] will be eliminated instantly.
From the first round onwards, the situation became very unfavorable for him.
Fortunately, Shi Li was fully prepared in the previous game.
For example, fully charge [Sheep God], fully charge [Soul Dragon], and fully charge all cards.
In addition, the repeated covering and unveiling mode of [Yinglong] was utilized to make the [Longqi Division] busy inside and outside.
Each time a card is revealed, it reduces the damage of the corresponding card by 10 points.
This includes the resurrected [Crystal Dragon Queen].
If the pressure from all aspects at the beginning had not been too great and it had not been possible to immediately add [Flag Blessing] to all the cards in the first row, [Crystal Dragon Queen] would not have been killed.
Except for [Peach Blossom Jade Deer] and [Immortal of the Other Shore], all the cards in his deck can benefit from [Flag Technique Blessing].
This is almost equivalent to adding 10 points of damage reduction to the entire deck, which is extremely powerful.
So even though he had a bad start, Shi Li still used the advantage of a fully charged deck to win the second game.
But it still came at a heavy price.
These [Second Desires] don't have much health, only 350 points.
But the opening wave of combined attacks was too damaging.
If it weren't for the Stone Monkey holding him back, his next row of cards would probably have been attacked as well.
All the cards in the first row became resurrection cards, and [Peach Blossom Jade Deer] also became a resurrection card.
It's not really a big deal that the upper limit of health of the healing cards in the second row is reduced, but it's very hurtful if the health of the cards in the first row is collectively adjusted to 40 points.
Therefore, in the third game, Shi Li was unable to defeat the [Three-Body Puppet].
Just like the previous [Trial of Listening], this game is not an unlimited challenge.
If you fail once, you have to wait for 10 days.
But Shi Li felt it was okay. If it was really 999 waves, the N times of 10-day waiting would be exhausting.
Reaching the third level on my first try is already a pretty good achievement.
If we summarize it again, we will definitely be able to play better.
So next, a new round of regional confrontation begins.
In this round, the Wind Chasing Team unfortunately came in last again and was on the verge of elimination.
The performance of the Balanced Team was also average, this time they finished second to last and lost a large number of players.
The main reason is that the competition system of this round is not very suitable for Shi Li's performance, or it reduces his influence to the minimum.
During the off-season, he learned from his mistakes and challenged the Tianjie card game again.
But I still couldn't get through. This time I came to the 7th wave, and I was basically defeated after just taking a look at the opponent's cards.
After another round of competition, the Wind Chasing Team was officially eliminated.
There are only four teams left: Balance, Rage, Wisdom, and Listening to the Wind.
According to the progress of previous sessions, when there are only four teams left, the competition is nearing its end.
Judging from the number of people, this is indeed the case.
Now there .
In this new off-season, Shi Li finally won the Tianjie game.
The S-level card [Immortal Lord of the Other Shore] officially entered his pocket.
"OK, another S-rank card.
There is not much time left in the game now, and it is probably not enough to add new S-level cards."
After organizing his deck of cards, Shi Li sat on the sofa and let out a long sigh.
Because the competition has officially entered the later stage, the organizers have given a slightly longer break this time, and the organizers themselves can also make more adequate preparations.
So now there is still quite a long time before the next round of games begins.
"It should be about the same over on Blue Star too. It's time to wrap it up."
He did not forget his agreement with Yi Ran.
The time ratio there is about 1:10, 1 day in reality and 10 days on Blue Star.
Counting the days, it has been about 7 or 8 years since I entered the big prison.
It's time to sort things out over there.
