Sorry, I don't play poker on luck

Mushroom people and straw people are relatively strange races.

Even in a place like the cube card universe where thousands of races coexist, it is a rare existence.

Especially the straw man, according to its self-report, its compatriots multiplied crazily here hundreds of years ago, and even once showed a tendency to surpass the human + human-like complex and become the largest race.

But later, for unknown reasons, the race gradually declined.

Passed down to its generation, there is only one single seedling left.

That's why it wants to marry Duoduo's daughter-in-law and complete the arduous and glorious task of inheriting the family and growing the race.

I don't know if it's true or not, anyway, that's what the grass man said.

"Commercial performance? Then the program they are going to perform is..."

"You won't know until you read it."

With one person, one story, and a few words, the grass man on the stage had been put into a box by Mosai mushroom, only a grass head was exposed outside.

Then Mushroom took a pair of sharp swords and began to insert them across the entire box.

But the straw man in the box was safe and sound, sipping milk tea through a straw.

Because the straw man's body is full of grass slits, he is not afraid of being stabbed by a sword at all.

Such a performance immediately drew boos from the audience, feeling that their IQ had been insulted.

But for the organizer, it is better than the audience being expressionless throughout the whole process. What they want is to make them emotionally fluctuate.

And this is also the request of the father of the advertising funder, to arrange a bad program before the advertisement, so as to increase the attractiveness of the advertisement in disguise.

Amid the boos, Mushroom and the Straw Man stepped down.

Then it starts playing a 3-minute ad.

The commercial this time is different from those beautifully produced commercials before. In 3 minutes, an actor repeats the slogan "he is good and I am good" back and forth.

No wonder the straw man and Mushroom were invited to start the show.

After the commercial was over, Shi Li and his opponent stepped onto the stage.

The top 8 adopt more advanced holographic projection technology, which will capture the situation on the poker table of the duel between two people, and then enlarge it 100 times, and intuitively project it on the stage.

"Speaking of which, I really have to thank you."

"If it weren't for you, I might not have been able to enter the top 8 so easily."

Standing opposite the card table, the knife-haired man smiled back.

"It's nothing, it's just a matter of stepping on the gas pedal."

Shi Li said modestly.

Soon, the decks on both sides were placed and entered the revealing round.

He stretched out his finger and flicked the two first row cards in succession.

Ding! Ding!

[Wow! 】

[Follow up, read up, read up! 】

The two cards were immediately flipped over.

This time he didn't join the Beast Combination, but changed to [Beast Dog] + [Fox Head Guard Officer].

"Wow! It's the fox in the dungeon!"

"It's a C-level card, and the board is pretty good!"

"God's hand, he actually got the guard!"

When the figure of [Fox Head Guard Officer] holding a book was enlarged and projected on the stage, many audience members exclaimed.

You must know that many people watched the live broadcast of the dungeon at that time.

With his mysterious vine skills, he has captured several batches of prisoners.

And she was the only guard who had a head-on collision with a dozen or so prisoners at the same time.

After a wave of attacks, he still survived in the end.

Not only did he not hang up, but he was dying and still lying on the bed reading novels.

So many people are still very impressed with this guard.

"Huh?"

I just don't know why when the knife-haired man saw the fox-headed man appear, his expression froze slightly, and then he revealed his own card.

【Blow~ Blow~ Blow a big balloon~】

[Boom! 】

His tactics in the first round have not changed, it is still the two cards he played.

[Balloon Blowing Goblin] with E-level 25 points, a green-skinned Goblin who keeps blowing up balloons.

The E-level 20-point [Explosive Stone] is a brown-black stone with irregular shapes and small explosions on the surface.

When he saw these two cards, Shi Li immediately felt relieved.

I am not the Gundam head of the previous round.

The lowest he can put on the table is a D-grade card.

The strength of this deck alone is enough to crush the opponent to death.

The action round is determined, and the cards on both sides start to act.

[Wow! 】

[Follow up, follow up! 】

First of all, the beast dog + fox head guard rushed out of his camp and attacked the brown and black stone.

-

15, -15

Under Stone's [Defense], two damage numbers jumped out.

Regarding this result, the knife-haired man's face changed slightly.

Generally, in the first round, when the opponent chooses to attack, he will choose the card with higher attack power, because the higher the attack power, the greater the threat.

So he likes to put his more important cards behind the first card with lower attack power, thinking that this is safer.

But the guy in front of him seemed to have seen through his tactical intentions.

Fortunately, for stability, he chose [Defense] for both cards.

After the action phase, the round officially ends.

Shi Li didn't think much about it, and directly chose to unveil the plaque.

In this round, he thought that his deck was strong enough that the knife-haired man couldn't make any splashes at all.

However, he never expected that the second round of cards would be unveiled, and the other party would give him a big surprise.

[Stop for me! 】

A burly werewolf dressed as a monk jumped out of the card.

The reason why the knife-haired man was surprised when he saw the [Fox Head Guard Officer] was because he himself had drawn the guard card.

And it was the [Wolf Head Guard Officer] that Shi Li wanted to draw but couldn't, because this guy didn't appear in his card pool at all.

"Wow! I didn't expect to see two guard cards in one game!"

"I feel that this wolf-headed man is more majestic and domineering than a fox-headed man."

"Woooooo, my husband was actually drawn by someone else."

The popularity of the wolf head guard is not low.

In particular, every time he makes a move in the boxing ring, he blows up the prisoner with one punch, leaving people with the impression that his strength is overwhelming.

"Could it be that he needs to be punched to appear in the card pool?"

Shi Li looked slightly envious: "It's indeed a good guess, it's a good card."

【Wolf Head Guard Officer】

Breakthrough, 40 points, C

Attack 40, 100/100, 0/3

[Arrest Boxing Ring - Passive]: When the wolf head guard reveals the card, enter the [Duel] with the enemy card revealed at the same time

[Sense of Achievement-Passive]: After the wolf head guard defeats the [Duel] target, get 50 points of [Healing]

([Duel]: Both parties in the duel are only affected by each other's damage/effect)

This card is even stronger than his D-grade [Mutated Wild Boar] with 40 points in the previous game.

Obviously, it was a tactical change made after seeing the strength of Shi Li's deck.

With a high score card of 40 points, 50 points of blood can be recovered after winning the heads-up.

If he is allowed to single out successfully, he can still gain a great advantage for his side.

However, for Shi Li, he was not worried about this situation.

Because the unveiling of my round this time is exactly...

【Brother expensive! 】

A muscular man with oily body + red eyes + gray-brown skin jumped out of the card.

【Brother expensive mourning beast】

Balanced, 35 points, C

Attack 35, 100/100

[Meat-eating-Passive]: Brother Guisang Beast attacks humanoid cards with an additional 10 points of damage

[Muscle flash - 0 points of energy]: Brother Guisang Beast can choose a target in this round, making it fall into [blindness] for 1 round

([Blindness]: The target cannot be selected this round)

Most of the audience present saw this card for the first time, and there was a lot of discussion immediately.

"It's over, the Langtou guard has hit the gun!"

"Guardian is also a humanoid card and will receive additional damage."

"Both sides can kill each other in 3 rounds, and according to the priority determined by the settlement, his [healing] is basically ineffective."

A 40-point card can only be exchanged for a 35-point card.

The knife-haired man's face was a bit ugly, and this round was his own small loss.

After the actions of both sides are selected, the action round officially begins.

[Stop for me! 】

[Brother is expensive! 】

The Langtou guard waved his hand and summoned the boxing ring.

The silhouettes of him and his brother Guisangshou flashed onto the ring, and they were already wearing red and blue gloves.

The scene on the ring was like a fast-moving camera, and one official and one mourned, just like this, they fought each other head-to-head.

[Ding Ding! 】

It wasn't until the ring bell rang a few seconds later that they returned to their respective tablets in a flash.

-

40, -45

Two injury figures jumped out of their heads respectively.

After the arena is over, the next step is to attack on both sides.

The man with the knife head wanted to predict Shili's fire target, but he predicted it instead.

[Explosive Rock] Defend, not attack.

[Balloon Goblin] chose to attack [Beast Dog].

As a result, [Beast Dog] + [Fox Head Guard Officer] caught [Goblin Blowing Balloon] and beat him up.

After two rounds, there was a clear gap between the cards of the two sides.

【Cover】【Wolf Head 55】

【Balloon 40】【Stone 65】(Poisoned)

vs.

【Fox Head】【Mourning Dog 80】

【Cover】【Brother Expensive 60】

The blood loss on both sides is 140 points versus 60 points, and the amount of damage caused by the current opponent is more than double that of the opponent.

In the next third round, Shi Li still didn't leave any chance for the opponent.

The [Fox Head Guardian], which was fully charged at the beginning of the game, released its AOE skills, and a [Vine Seed Burst] hit it, and all the other three regular cards except the [Wolf Head Guardian] were attacked, making him advantage is further expanded.

Seeing that nothing could be done, the knife-haired man finally chose to surrender, causing neither side to reveal the trump card.

This made Shi Li secretly heave a sigh of relief, thinking that this opponent is quite sensible.

Because if you continue to fight, even if you have a great advantage, you may be exposed to the trump card and expose something prematurely.

In the auditorium, Director Xiu and Secretary He witnessed the victory.

"It's far better than the opponent's deck and card skills. I can't imagine how the coach can lose this game."

After a morning of contact, curator Xiu is quite optimistic about Shili.

Looking at the practice at the poker table now, I like this talent even more.

"Curator, this is the first time I see you must be an employee."

Secretary He next to him was a little surprised.

"Xiao He, Xiao He, during my absence, your work is not in place."

However, curator Xiu shook his head at this moment.

Secretary He: "?"

Curator Xiu: "If I remember correctly, we haven't engaged in team building for many years."

Secretary He: "This is true. According to the historical records of the museum, there was a tradition of regularly organizing this activity before."

Curator of the show: "So, the tradition cannot be lost."

Director Xiu: "You are seriously dereliction of duty. When did you cancel the team building?"

Secretary He: "Well... it probably started when the current curator took office."

Secretary He: "Because this year's curator has a habit of playing cards, the operation manager..."

Director Xiu: "Ahem!"

Curator Xiu: "I rubbed the cards to improve the deck. Only by improving the deck can we better build the reputation of the card hall."

Secretary He: "Curator, let's not mention your touching success rate of card shuffling."

Secretary He: "That is to say, as far as I know, rubbing clothes materials for male cards will not improve the deck."

In fact, Secretary He has complained for a long time, so he really dares to say something.

If it weren't for the fact that this guy was his cousin, he would have given up on the mess of the show hall.

"In order to enhance the cohesion of employees, I now decide to restart the tradition of team building."

"You go back and plan, and organize it in the near future."

Curator Xiu skipped the topic he didn't want to mention.

...

After Shi Li won, he returned to the player's bench and continued to watch other players' games.

The second game was a girl with wings VS a guy with dog ears.

Winged people are somewhat similar to angels, both have bird-like feathered wings.

But the key difference is that the angels have wings on their backs, while the winged humans have wings with their hands.

The winner between these two will face him in the 4-in-2 match the day after tomorrow, so he is very concerned.

The final result of the competition was that the Wingman girl won with difficulty.

Whether it's card skills or decks, both sides are pretty much the same.

The 5 cards are all 2E+2D+1C, so the playing is quite anxious.

If it is really an opponent of this level, Shili is confident that he will easily enter the final.

However, when he got the information about the winged girl that Shrem had helped him find, he found that things were not that simple.

Qingyu, female, 19 years old.

Height 175cm, weight 60kg.

Measurements...

"There is no need to collect some unnecessary information."

"Good master, then next time I will only ask about height and weight measurements."

"?"

Shi Li suspected that this guy did it on purpose.

Then look down, the information shows that Qingyu is a LV10 player.

But from the start of the Rising Stars Competition to the present, the deck used has not changed at all.

It is the set of 2E+2D+1C just now.

If this is a player around LV5, he is still willing to believe that the depth of the deck may not be enough, and this is the only deck that can be assembled with more combat effectiveness.

But for a LV10 player, that's all he has?

He doesn't believe it.

No matter how unlucky people are.

So this shows a problem, that the other party must have something hidden.

"This is really difficult."

Thinking of this, he pressed his temple.

He can only hope that the real thing that the opponent will come up with the day after tomorrow will not be too strong.

Otherwise, I can only expose my hole cards in advance.
