Chapter 629 - 462: Dragon General in Rage (Part 2)
With a loud shout, the BOSS transformed into a pillar of blue light, shooting directly onto the ace position.
[Roar!]
The new projection arose from the ace position with its unveiling.
The appearance remained that of the BOSS, but its size had multiplied several times once again.
It looked like a small building, with an even stronger visual sense of oppression.
The group couldn’t see the opponent’s interface, but they clearly saw the equally large header.
[Dragon General in Rage]
Fierce Attack, A
"Hey! Why does the name emphasize ’in Rage’!"
"You really pissed it off!"
Ah Yajun, upon seeing, directly grabbed Li Pu’s shoulder.
"No worries, it’s doomed anyway."
Li Pu’s confidence surged as soon as he saw the opponent’s Fierce Attack type.
Fierce Attack cards emphasize offense, unlikely to possess any defensive skills.
In this way, the success rate of the can-kicking strategy is greatly increased.
[You insolent child!]
[How dare you speak such arrogance!]
[Show card, roar!!!]
Upon hearing this conversation, the BOSS roared in fury.
Accompanied by the storm unleashed from the dragon’s mouth, its entire card set was revealed in the air.
A 3x6 card grid was immediately laid out in front of the four.
The formation, at first sight, did not look like an easy adversary.
The first row’s projection was three gigantic golden worms.
Their shapes resembled croissants, covered with a heavy and hard insect shell armor.
[Golden Shell Slave]
Tenacity, A
The Tenacity type, and at an A-level.
It’s clearly a tank capable of withstanding damage, absorbing front-line output tasks.
"This thing should be hard to beat, but luckily..."
Honest Ah Yajun wanted to say it was fortunate they prepared a can-kicking lineup to bypass the frontline and strike the BOSS directly.
But was given a stare from Li Pu instead.
Li Pu: Are you stupid, what if the BOSS heard and [Defended].
Ji Jiao: Right, brother, you can’t just speak carelessly.
Hu Wei: Be cautious with your words.
Ah Yajun: ..., you guys have known each other for less than a day, and can already communicate tacitly?
The second row’s projection was a mixed combination.
The middle column from rows 2 to 4 were all Dragon Path.
From this, it was clear that the BOSS’s card formation wasn’t as brainless as the previous monsters.
With three Dragon Paths, for every one that goes down, the remaining ones gain a significant boost.
If placed in the middle column, to ultimately destroy the ace, you must take them down first.
"Such a sly BOSS."
Hu Wei couldn’t help but exclaim.
The second row’s left and right column projections were identical cards, half-dragons in yellow jumpsuits with black vertical stripes.
[Battle Dragon]
Chase Wind, B
"This is quite a treasure."
Li Pu felt that these two cards seemed full of potential to transform into Kung Fu Dragons.
The third row’s left and right columns were two ancient wheeled cannons, each with a white ghost hovering beside it.
[Gun Ghost]
Listen Wind, B
Ji Jiao: "This is likely a card with a long-range attack effect."
Ah Yajun: "And combined with [Ghostly Constitution], it’s hard to focus targets for a quick kill."
The fourth row’s left and right columns were two coiling dragon stone pillars.
[Fire Dragon Divine Needle]
Rage, A
Its function was unclear, but its A-level quality should not be underestimated.
The fifth row’s cards were all the same, half-dragons wearing red cloaks, holding a Fine Steel Great Axe with sharp gazes.
[Close Dragon Guard]
Fierce Attack, B
Likely another card exploit, bypassing the BOSS domain dragon soldier debuff.
The sixth row, the BOSS’s last regular cards, were three half-dragons similar to the [Close Dragon Guard].
Equally cloaked, their slightly larger figures wore straw hats covering half their faces, modestly nodding, holding a long sword.
[Elite Close Dragon Guard]
Fierce Attack, A
"This card set is rather luxurious."
After examining all of the BOSS’s cards, even Li Pu couldn’t help but marvel.
Including the BOSS itself, there were a total of 12 A cards and 7 B cards.
The proportion of A-level cards was greater than that of B-level cards.
Don’t be fooled by the higher proportion of A-level cards in Master and King ranks on Blue Star; some even possess S-level cards.
But there’s no comparison between the two.
Even if a King player challenges alone with a 9+1 deck, it would still be incredibly difficult, given the high strength of monsters in PvE card games.
But the more challenging it is, the more tempted Li Pu felt.
Because after spending time in the Cube Card Metaverse, he discovered a principle.
Whenever multiple regular cards appear in a monster card game, there’s a high probability of dropping these multiple cards, excluding the trump card, if you manage to defeat it.
On the opposing side, apart from the trump card, not a single card was not repeated.
If they really managed to take down the BOSS, the rewards would be substantial.
The key point is that there were only four of them, which meant they would earn more than dividing the loot among eight.
"Let’s begin."
Then, at his command, everyone began revealing their cards one after another.
[Aim buzz!]
[Oooooo!]
[Cheer up mushroom!]
[Willing to help, help others~]
[Resolve in battle, life or death!]
[Crash and crackle!]
[I will graciously teach you!]
[Crackle and crash!]
...
All sorts of chaotic cards were revealed one by one.
The four players had a total of 28 cards, with 26 cards of enhancement/weakening type, 1 [Mysterious Horn].
And one card was specifically prepared by Li Pu, a furious-type uncontrollable card worth 20 points.
By automatically sacrificing himself during card reveals, he granted immunity to all of his team’s cards from control effects for one turn.
He even considered this factor; if they still couldn’t succeed in their task, it meant the four-person team’s card limit couldn’t complete this task, or their card strength wasn’t adequate.
In theory, during the first action turn, the damage [Mysterious Horn] could inflict on the opponent’s trump card would reach as high as 2132 points!
[Hahaha! A motley crew!]
Upon seeing these jumbled cards revealed, the Dragon General laughed with thunderous sound.
Half of the opponent’s cards were C-level, with even fewer A-level cards.
With such a level, they actually dared to challenge him!
As this laughter rang out, the official action phase began.
Both sides completed their actions in an orderly manner, then the action turn arrived.
[Die!]
The first to act was the Dragon General, who stood furthest away and had the largest physique.
As it waved the great mace in its hand, an immense meteor-like rock descended from the sky.
Instantly, a gigantic circular shadow appeared above the card table and began to slowly expand.
This stone’s arrival felt like a doomsday judgment, yet it descended deliberately slow.
It seemed designed to deliberately create a sense of oppression for them.
Facts proved this sense of oppression indeed very powerful.
"Isn’t it supposed to be of the Break Formation type, why can it use skills at the start?!"
Witnessing this scene, Hu Wei panicked.
"Bro, something seems off. It feels like this wave could completely wipe out our cards!"
Ji Jiao’s face was also filled with anxiety.
"Which card is best to discard later?"
Ah Yajun was already contemplating, with his chin resting in his hand, figuring out the most cost-effective way to discard cards.
"No worries, at worst we all go down together."
Li Pu remained calm.
After all, all attacks settle after the action phase; if they truly managed to kill the BOSS instantly, it would still result in a draw.
As the gigantic rock slowly descended, beams of different-colored lights began bestowing upon the [Mysterious Horn] card, or perhaps the Dragon General itself.
When all BUFFs/DEBUFFs were applied, the projection [Mysterious Horn] suddenly expanded dozens of times.
Boom!
Even during the explosive rise, it pierced right through the giant rock!
"Success!"
Seeing this, Li Pu couldn’t help but pump his fist.
The projection animation often represents the final outcome of the card game.
The gigantic horn piercing the meteor only reveals one fact: all of the opponent’s actions this turn became utterly meaningless.
Because they won.
[How, how is this possible?!]
As the Dragon General exclaimed in disbelief, it suddenly realized a bowl-sized hole had appeared in its chest.
