Chapter 885: Chapter 310: Playing with Demigods on the Card Table

Creaky Bones’ remarks were quite valid, but the Conflict Demigod didn’t take them well.

What does he mean by implying that Harmony is more powerful than Conflict?

He is clearly closer to divinity than that guy.

At this moment, Ree Shil was also analyzing this card.

"A 0 points card, yet possesses a different kind of DPS ability..."

"As expected, an S-rank card isn’t something you can trifle with."

However, this calm demeanor was not the attitude Conflict Demigod wanted to see.

Later, Ree Shil revealed his last regular Covered Card.

[I Climb Climb Climb...]

A short little fellow with body of an earthworm and head of a dragon, sprouted out from the card face.

"Huh! Didn’t you say you didn’t have any Drop Cards!"

Seeing this card, Creaky Bones realized he had been tricked.

But on second thought, it made sense.

This guy must have suspected someone was spying, which is why he said that earlier.

"You’re indeed cunning..."

As expected, the appearance of this card gave Conflict Demigod a half-second pause.

He had indeed heard the two’s conversation earlier.

He didn’t anticipate that he would even miscalculate matters outside the card game.

However, it’s okay, it’s no big deal.

Creaky Bones remarked, "This card... basically inherits the characteristics of the Boss."

"Additionally, it has an even stronger ability to survive upon its reveal. Now that [Sweeping Monk] is down, it serves as an Outer Card and has pretty decent survivability."

"As long as it can accumulate energy, its growth rate will be quite high."

While she was muttering to herself, the action phase for both sides arrived.

The Conflict Demigod’s round.

[Conflict Ox] performs [Defense].

[Dragonified Zhang Fei] performs [Defense].

These two Outer Cards were not something he dared to leave unguarded for the time being.

Because the DPS from the four cards on the other side could instantly eliminate any of them.

As for the other Outer Card, [Harmonious Lamb], it deliberately remained [Still].

If the other party chooses to eliminate it, then it’s a 1 for 1 trade, and he doesn’t lose out at all.

At the same time, [Harmonious Lamb] gave [Kung Fu Sheep Rabbit] 10 points of [Fatigue], and [Undead General] 10 points of [Encourage].

[Undead General] attacked [Defense] mode [Higan Fairy], causing 30 points of damage.

[Conflict Ox]’s energy is full, so it couldn’t release [Healing] to itself.

[Crazy Doctor] gave [Dragonified Zhang Fei] 20 points of [Healing].

On Ree Shil’s side.

[Higan Fairy] performs [Defense].

[Kung Fu Sheep Rabbit] attacked [Defense] mode [Dragonified Zhang Fei], causing 15 points of damage.

[Climbing Dragon] attacked [Defense] mode [Dragonified Zhang Fei], causing 10 points of damage.

[Martial Monkey] attacked [Defense] mode [Dragonified Zhang Fei] causing 5 points of damage.

After the end of the 4th round, the card faces of both sides were as follows:

[Ancient Battlefield]

points, remaining 1 card 30 points

[Harmonious Lamb] 1/3 [General] 1/3 [Doctor 25] 1/2

[Empty Slot] [Conflict 90] 4/4 [Dragon Zhang 70] 3/3

VS

[Martial Monkey] [Empty Slot] [Empty Slot]

[Sheep Rabbit] 3/3 [Climbing Dragon] 0/3 [Higan Fairy 70] 3/4

points, remaining 1 card 40 points

[Martial Woods]

"Huh?"

Seeing this card layout, Creaky Bones was slightly stunned.

"What’s happening, it seems like there’s a turn of events!"

"Why does it seem like Henry Thompson is taking the lead?"

"I understand where the problem lies — it’s an issue with card composition!"

"Conflict has too few DPS cards!"

"He actually only has one Next Line Card [Undead General] with independent DPS ability."

"So this card [Conflict Ox] must hold its ground firmly."

"Because once they go down, [Undead General] would be exposed under the firepower and wouldn’t last long."

"The thing is, all of Henry Thompson’s cards can DPS proactively, besides, he is not afraid to lose, and on top of that, he has correctly predicted that the other side would attack [Higan Fairy]."

"What does it mean ’not afraid to lose’? It means with his card set, [Dragonified Zhang Fei]’s skill can only attack [Martial Monkey] or [Climb Dragon]+[Higan Fairy], which isn’t very worth it."

"It appears that [Conflict Ox] and [Harmonious Lamb] may be useful in a 9+1 scenario."

"But it’s not so useful here!"

Creaky Bones yelled out the words "not so useful" very loudly.

This isn’t some fair game of cards. Of course, one has to employ small tactics like psychologically manipulating others.

"..."

As expected, hearing this, the Conflict Demigod fell silent.

In fact, in her opinion, the most critical issue was that [Kung Fu Sheep Rabbit] had finally finished warming up.

Don’t underestimate this mere interval of 3 rounds. But in a fast-paced, short round like 6+1, plus the pressure brought about by S-rank cards, these 3 rounds felt like an eternity.

Moreover, the rounds that would follow may all be turning points in the card game.

Without a doubt, the Conflict Demigod would definitely focus fire on [Higan Fairy].

That’s because if he doesn’t take it down, it could [Resurrect] a [Wicked Dragon Demon] later, which would be troublesome.

Also, [Undead General] only defeated [Sweeping Monk]+[Wicked Dragon Demon] once respectively, and needed one more kill to trigger a double strike for next round.

As for Ree Shil’s side, he needs to eliminate an opponent’s card as soon as possible, for [Climbing Dragon] and [Higan Fairy] to gain energy.

In this round, neither side has a card to reveal.

So, the Action Phase arrived.

The Conflict Demigod’s side.

[Conflict Ox] performs [Defense].

[Harmonious Lamb] gave [Dragonified Zhang Fei] 10 points of [Encourage], and [Kung Fu Sheep Rabbit] 10 points of [Fatigue].

[Dragonified Zhang Fei]’s skill was released, causing 20 points of damage to [Defense] mode [Climbing Dragon] and 40 points of damage to [Higan Fairy].
