Sorry, I don't play poker with luck

It was still the quiet bamboo forest, standing at the entrance of the pavilion.

"You're here again."

Tingfeng Messenger was sitting in the pavilion with a cup of tea.

Although the other party's tone was calm, the word "again" seemed particularly sarcastic.

"Yes, I'm here."

Shi Li was not annoyed at all. This level was not enough to cause any turmoil in his heart.

Compared to the first time, his deck mix has changed a lot now.

The mage tiles, pig tiles, monk tiles, and dragon tiles were originally named [Master Fahai] [Sheep God] [Sweeping Monk] [Five-clawed Golden Dragon] respectively.

Today, he did not carry any of the above four cards.

The one that replaces the mage card is [Demon Slayer].

That's right, there were three alternatives at the time.

[Master Fahai], [Horned Magician] and the prototype of [Demon Slayer] which is quite unreliable.

After summarizing the previous experiences, [Master Fahai] and [Horn Magician] both have their own limitations, and they are not very qualified for various trials.

So today he wanted to try out [Demon Slayer].

【Demon Exorcist】

Listen to the wind, 30 points, A

攻30，100/100，0/3

[Tianshi - Passive]: When the demon slayer attacks the demon card, the damage caused is +10

[Breathe-Passive]: The Demon Slayer is still for the first time in this round, and does not take up actions.

[Standing Mind Technique-Passive]: The first time the Demon Slayer is still in this round, he will recover an additional 1 points of energy.

[Thirteen Breaks -3 Energy]: The Demon Slayer will cause 1 points of damage to a target. If the target is a demon card, it will ignore [Defense] in the next 30 rounds.

This card has already been turned into an A-level card by him.

[Breathe Breath] has been added, which is a very valuable static-related passive for Listening to the Wind cards.

It's not that Tokidachi didn't want to use this entry for other cards, but the material at that time was only compatible with [Demon Slayer].

However, even if it becomes A-level, as a card collected in the early stage, it is not strong enough to play.

It only appears occasionally when used as a demon-suppressing card.

In fact, I didn't know what characteristics this card would show after it was transformed into a puppet follower in the Listening Trial.

If you can perform well in the trial, let's give it a try.

The original pig card used the universal tag of [Starting Stick] to bring [Kung Fu Goat God] into the field.

Unfortunately, after many experiments, it was discovered that although [Kung Fu Goat God] is very powerful, it is not suitable for use in the Listening Trial.

Except for a few combat or dexterity-type levels, its performance is average.

It can only be said that even S-level cards have their limitations.

Invincible at the poker table, situation-dependent outside the poker table.

The current pig brand Shili is the original [Shigun] directly on the market.

Because he accidentally triggered a hidden rule.

That is if the cards on the card cannot constitute a puppet with the ability to act autonomously, such as weapons and other props.

Then the players will personally equip these props and conduct trials.

To be more precise, it is a homogeneous puppet projection controlled by the player.

In short, it will definitely not hurt the player himself.

In terms of physical strength, Shili is definitely far inferior to [Sheep God].

But it's more controllable.

After all, puppets are puppets. Their intelligence is virtual and they do not possess emotions or humanity.

In some trials, it will appear to be overly mechanical.

Even the puppet followers on Tingfeng Messenger's side are the same.

Therefore, simply letting Shili take control can often produce unexpected results.

For the monk card, there was originally only one alternative [Sweeping Monk].

But [Sweeping Monk] is really useless.

In terms of Kung Fu, he is not as good as the Goat God, and even on par with the Monkey.

In terms of body shape, he is also at the bottom.

Not as strong as Fa Hai, but he knows a little bit about Qigong.

It's not good anyway, so I plan to replace it today.

The one he replaced was the newly developed A-level monk card, [Monk].

Speaking of the prototype of [Demon Monk], apart from Shisan, who is the prototype of [Demon Slayer], they are still friends + colleagues.

【Great Demon Monk】

Furious, 30 points, A

Attack 30, 100/100

[Yei Qi-Passive]: When the monster monk attacks normal biological cards, the damage caused is +10

[Fake Mercy-Passive]: Every time a card is removed from the field, the Monk will gain 1 [Healing] points.

[Monk chants sutra -30% maximum health]: The demon monk attacks 1 target and puts it into [Seal] for 2 turns

[Become a Buddha immediately -100% current health]: The demon monk retires and makes 1 target [silent] for 3 rounds.

Compared with before, there is an additional active skill [Silence].

Silencing the target for a long time at the expense of itself.

It can be used in rounds when the health is low or when you are about to fight back.

It's equivalent to getting out of the game and earning an extra control skill.

The reason why [Monk] is shaped like this is mainly for playing games.

It's just that after becoming a player, there is no suitable opportunity to play for the time being.

This card is similar to [Demon Slayer] and has not appeared in the Listening Trial.

Mainly because [Sweeping Monk] is not very good, so he got the chance to appear.

The last dragon-character card replaces the [Five-clawed Golden Dragon] by itself.

The performance of [Five-clawed Golden Dragon] is actually pretty good.

Its comprehensiveness is relatively high and it can handle many kinds of trials.

In this trial, it can be regarded as a supporting existence.

But he felt it was not enough and wanted to be stronger.

[Five-clawed Golden Dragon] + [Spiritual Master] = [Five-clawed Spiritual Dragon]

【Five-clawed Spirit Dragon】

Breaking the trend, 100 points, S

攻100，300/300，0/5

[Large size - Passive]: The five-clawed spirit dragon occupies 1 row of 3 tablets, with HP +200

[Red Devil Dragon Scale-Passive]: The five-clawed spirit dragon has the [Coating] effect

[Golden Claw Fist - 2 points of energy]: The five-clawed spirit dragon attacks the target, with [Stun]

[Golden Claw Scissors - 4 points of energy]: The five-clawed spirit dragon attacks the target with [Full Penetration]

[Golden Claw Cloth - 2 points of energy]: The five-clawed spirit dragon attacks the target with [Seal]

After several practical summaries, he believed that [Five-clawed Spirit Dragon] was the best.

The card is reflected in the puppet follower. It is big and fleshy. It has magic immunity when it lands on the ground, and it also has three unique moves.

Finally, paired with the [Pseudo Saint] that cannot be changed, these are the five cards he participated in today's trial.

Already familiar with the steps and procedures, Shi Li directly opened up a posture with Tingfeng Envoy.

The first level is the wrist level.

Shili thought for 2 seconds and immediately gave up the challenge opportunity.

Every time he encountered this wrist-strength barrier before, he couldn't get far.

Because there are only a handful of minions in the deck that can beat that unicorn-arm robot.

Previously, both the Goat God and the Golden Dragon could win, but after winning, there would be one less powerful follower.

And now in my deck, probably only the [Five-clawed Spirit Dragon] can fight against that robot.

If you use the cards at the bottom of the box early, you will definitely not be able to pass the level.

So the one he sent to challenge was the [Demon Slayer].

Quan should give it a try, what if this follower is good at strength and wins.

There is no doubt about the result, of course, we lost.

So the first of three opportunities was wasted carelessly.

The second challenge, this time the level is no longer a wrist level.

But enter Dingguan.

After entering the book several times, Toki Li believed that he had seen 95% of all the levels.

Basically, he has encountered them all.

Entering the Ding Pass refers to being calcined by the fire in the alchemy furnace. Whichever follower persists longer will be considered the winner.

At this level, an ordinary mortal body is not acceptable.

Therefore, [Demon Exterminator] and [Great Demon Monk] can be eliminated.

All that's left is to choose one of the three options: [Pseudo Saint], [Beginning Stick], and [Five-clawed Spirit Dragon].

After a short period of thinking, Shi Li decided to choose [Pseudo Saint].

[False Saint] cannot be burned to death at all, so it is most stable to let him fight this level.

The other two S-level cards are reserved for other uses. Sure enough, it was the opportunity to appear in the second level.

The second level is the tangram level, which requires solving 77 tangram puzzles.

This level is simply a torture for the followers who lack intelligence.

But Tokidachi controlled his own puppet, holding the [Star Stick], and participated in this level.

In fact, you don't need a very smart brain. This level only requires a normal person's thinking, and he will definitely be able to solve it faster than a puppet.

So he passed the second level easily.

The third level is Demon Customs.

This is a brand new level that has never been encountered before.

Tokidachi can only say that it is almost tailor-made for [Demon Slayer].

The content is similar to the previous Abyss Level, which is to fight among the monsters and beasts.

Not only is it required to survive, but it is also required to kill as many monsters as possible within the specified time.

Whichever side kills more monsters will be the winner.

This level is even easier than the previous level, because Tokidachi doesn't have to do it himself, he is only responsible for watching.

After three passes, he had a hunch.

This S-level mission of mine may be completed today.

There is no basis, just a hunch.

After all, there has never been a challenge that went so smoothly.

The fourth level is another familiar level.

Daoshan Pass.

The entourage was asked to search for the only famous sword among the mountains composed of tens of millions of knives.

There is time scaling, they are 1 minute outside and 1 year inside.

At this level, Shi Li was a little confused about who to send.

To be honest, neither the [Great Demonic Monk] nor the [Five-clawed Spiritual Dragon] seems suitable.

The most suitable one is [Pseudo Saint].

Its fiery eyes are very useful for finding things.

But now that [Pseudo Saint] is gone, we can only choose one of the two.

Finally, Toki decided to try his luck.

He kept the [Five-clawed Spirit Dragon] that might be more useful in later levels to hold on to the formation, and sent out the [Demon Monk].

The last time I encountered this level was when I entered the dungeon for the first time.

At that time, he also sent out the monk sign, [Sweeping Monk].

As a result, the other side was also a pure human search, but its pace was faster than that of [Sweeping Monk].

In 10 years, [Sweeping Monk] didn't even search half of the knife mountain, but the other party was very lucky to find the famous knife.

This time, Tingfeng Messenger sent the same follower.

It seems that she doesn't have any good answer for this level.

This time, luck was on Tokidachi's side.

In the 13th year of the level, [The Great Demon Monk] finally discovered the famous sword.

Tingfeng Messenger's followers actually moved faster and had already searched 3/4 of the entire mountain of swords.

However, the [Great Demon Monk] was more destined to complete the mission after only searching half of it.

"Finally, phew..."

At the end of the fourth level, Shi Li let out a long breath.

This was his first time to reach level 5.

The previous best result was just completing level 3.

"It seems you are only one step away from success."

Tingfeng Messenger didn't look anxious and took a sip of tea.

Putting down the cup, she snapped her fingers.

Snapped!

hum…

A set of lottery-style lottery equipment appeared in the pavilion out of thin air.

Inside the round glass cover, there are a bunch of crystal balls.

There are two words written on the surface of each sphere, such as [Escape], [Escape], [Fight] and so on.

"Since this is the end of the first challenge, I'll leave it to you to extract the content of this level."

Tingfeng Messenger gave up the chance to draw to Shi Li.

"Okay, let me give it a try."

Tokidachi was not superstitious about this kind of thing, so he walked forward and pulled the wrench of the instrument.

[Beep beep beep beep beep beep beep! 】

As the wrench is pulled down, colorful flashing lights light up on the spherical glassware.

A strong air flow surged into the vessel, blowing the crystal balls around.

They hit the glass wall and made quite irregular movements.

The crystal ball is very fast, and even if his dynamic vision is very good, he can't see which one is which.

It wasn't until one of the crystal balls stood out and fell into the glass tube that he vaguely saw two words from the rolling: [Game of Cards].

"Oh, this level is a card level."

Tingfeng Messenger also saw this word clearly.

"The game is closed?"

This was a level he had never encountered before, and Tokidachi expressed his confusion.

The card game is definitely used for playing cards.

Now that I only have 1 card in my hand, how can I form a game?

Could it be that the follower is the player, controlling some simulated card games, endgames, etc.?

Won't it be a little too difficult for the puppet followers to play such a complicated thing as playing cards?

“Kaijuguan, as the name suggests, is about playing cards.

Let the puppet follower return to the form of the card, and then engage in a duel. "

Tingfeng Messenger smiled and explained: "Actually, we each play a card and compete in a one-on-one duel.

It starts with the unveiling of the cards and ends with the game.

1V1, all are the rules of the game. "

Tokidachi: "Is there a limit to points?"

Tingfeng Messenger: "No limit."

Tokidachi: "Are there any special rules?"

Tingfeng Messenger: "No."

Shili: "Then you're not dead yet?"

Tingfeng Messenger: "..."

What Toki Li said was not a lie.

No matter what card the opponent is holding now.

First take a look at what this one is in your hand.

S level, 100 points.

A giant card with a blood volume of up to 300 points.

If there is a trump card mechanism in the 1V1 game, it would be 600 blood points.

It also comes with [coating], so you are not afraid of any negative effects.

It also has control, not only can you control others, but you can also hedge and avoid control.

Even if the [Kung Fu Goat God] comes, it is impossible to beat the [Five-clawed Spirit Dragon].

What's more, he knows what cards Tingfeng Messenger has left.

That fairy card, one look at the appearance of the follower shows that it is extremely weak.

It's not that it's weak, it's absolutely impossible to beat the [Five-clawed Spirit Dragon].

No need to fight.

There is no way to play this 1V1 card game.

So I have to complete this S-level mission today.
