Chapter 320 - 121: Warming Up to the End_2

Chapter 320: Chapter 121: Warming Up to the End_2

Both sides have finished revealing their cards, and the action round has arrived.

[Whoosh whoosh whoosh!]

On the opposing side, the [Big Cloud] contracted its body to nearly 1/3 of its size, its expression tense.

Naturally, the best move for this defensive giant card during the first round is [Defense].

Spinach believes that although the opponent has a taunting card, they definitely dare not use the skill lightly.

Because that would mean taking up to 70 points of attack power, enough to defeat it in just two rounds.

The actual situation is indeed as Spinach expects.

[You’re Ugly Too!]

[Goose Goose Goose Hungry!]

[Gulu Gaga!]

-10, -15, -7.5, -7.5 (Penetration)

Ree Shil’s move is to attack with all members.

Due to the force reflection of the [Big Cloud], all three cards lose 5 health points.

Honestly, Ree Shil feels a bit disadvantaged by this, but there’s no other way.

If they don’t take this reflected damage, they won’t be able to defeat the [Big Cloud].

After one round, the card faces of both sides are as follows:

[Covered Card 90][Covered Card 82.5][Covered Card 90]

[Big Cloud 267.5]

VS

[Ugly Person 95][Big Goose 95][Fighting Monkey 95]

The second round begins, and the replacement phase comes first.

Spinach looked at the opponent’s cards and his own covered cards, finally deciding to replace one card.

However, the [Red Killing Array] cannot be replaced because, if it is, the added attack effect on his next row card position will disappear, which means losing 30 health points in vain.

As for Ree Shil, he uses a dazzling technique that makes it unclear whether he has replaced a card or not.

The replacement phase ends, and the unveiling stage arrives.

Ree Shil doesn’t wait and reveals his next line card first.

Ding!

[Gentle Flower!]

The projection of a large deer with red, flower-like spots appears on the card face, raising its head and crying out.

(He’s using a healing card this round...)

At first, Spinach didn’t understand why to play a healing card when the threat of the headline card is so low.

But then, realizing that it’s the type that achieves the ability to endure indefinitely by warming up.

"However, speaking of which, isn’t this a coincidence?"

With that, it looked at Ree Shil and showed a meaningful smile.

Then, with a mental activation, it unveiled its next row card.

[...]

Unlike most revealings, this card had no momentum when it was revealed.

Ree Shil sees a stone statue slowly emerging.

The stone statue is wearing ancient general armor, with one hand holding up a large cudgel in a swinging posture.

With an angry, wide-eyed expression, it froze on its face.

Even though it couldn’t move, its imposing force had an oppressive feeling.

"I can’t believe there’s such a card. Damn."

Ree Shil couldn’t help but mutter after seeing the card face.

[Stone Kong]

Listening to the Wind, 30 points, B-level

Attack 80, 82.5/100, 0/2

[Stone Kong’s Body - Passive]: Stone Kong’s attack power +40

[Ancient Seal - Passive]: Stone Kong is continuously in a [Petrification] state

[Seal Removal - 1 Energy Point]: Stone Kong releases the [Petrification] state and gains action qualification in this round.

([Petrification]: The target loses the ability to act, and the damage received this round is reduced by 10)

𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Spinach claimed that it was a coincidence because this card was very similar to the [Floral Jade Deer].

Both rely on [Petrification] for survival, but one is an attack strategy, and the other is a healing strategy.

And, compared to the wisdom series’ [Floral Jade Deer], the Wind Listening System’s [Stone Kong] had more initiative.

In fact, it’s like having a card that can act once every 2 rounds, dealing 70 points of damage in the process.

For a 30-point card, its attack power is, in fact, 10 points higher.

Combined with the [Red Killing Array], that’s 80 points of damage.

And with the [Petrification], it was tough and durable in terms of survival.

It can be considered an intermittent burst DPS card that is also self-protective.

In B-level, it’s one of the stronger cards.

However, this card wasn’t the one Spinach just replaced.

It’s saved for later.

At this time, both sides had finished revealing cards, and the action round begins.

[Whoosh whoosh whoosh!]

Obviously, Spinach’s power round hasn’t arrived yet, so it still has the [Big Cloud] perform [Defense].

As for Stone Kong, it can’t move because it has no energy.

[You’re Ugly Too!]

[Goose Goose Goose Hungry!]

[Gentle Flower!]

[Gulu Gaga!]

-10, -15, -15, -7.5, -7.5 (Penetration)

On Ree Shil’s side, even the [Floral Jade Deer] joined in the focused fire.

[Martial Fighting Monkey] still chose to [Penetration] the middle row because [Penetration] is not considered an attack and will not be blocked by Stone Kong’s petrified protective layer.

All the cards were reflected, but due to the [Hundred Demons Night Parade], the [Floral Jade Deer] recovered as if no blood was lost.

Their cards’ health loss is still too small at the moment, so it’s not worth using [First Aid].

After this round, the card faces of both sides are as follows:

[Covered Card 90][Stone Kong 75][Covered Card 90]

[Big Cloud 220]

VS

[Ugly Person 90]][Big Goose 90][Fighting Monkey 90]

[Covered Card][Covered Card][Floral Jade Deer]

At this time, Show Director and Secretary Brown are both silent as they watch the card faces.

Although the current blood loss ratio between the two sides has reached 125:30, with Ree Shil seemingly dominating the advantage, this still isn’t the standard to judge the pros and cons of the situation.

That’s because they know that the real battle has not yet begun.

Both sides are still gathering strength.

Moreover, Spinach’s card deck depth is certainly stronger than Ree Shil’s.

They believe that in the third round, both sides will reveal their DPS cards that can break the deadlock or power up.
