Chapter 151

Do I have to sell it too?!!

…………Scholar.

…………

"Holy crap! What did I just see?!!"

"Selling a teammate's health to draw cards is one thing, but now he can even sell an enemy's health to draw cards for himself? What kind of vampire is this!"

"Exaggerated! Absurd! If this general were in an eight-player match, wouldn't he be able to get two free cards every turn?!"

"This is the real Wei faction blood-selling general! What were the Guo Jia and Cao Chong I played before?"

…………

Skill [Corner Weeping] activated.

Three cards flew out from the top of the deck.

Gu Xuan picked and chose.

Subsequently,

he tossed a Lightning to Bound Ma Chao.

He kept the remaining two cards for himself.

When the Bound Ma Chao player saw more cards flying toward him,

he was stunned for a moment,

then realized what was happening.

A smile spread across his face.

It’s fine, it’s fine.

This blood-selling general of his isn't too excessive.

Selling his health to draw three cards,

and he still has to give him one!

Then he looked at the card...

"Holy crap! Why are you giving me a Lightning!"

The Bound Ma Chao player was speechless.

He couldn't change the judgment anyway.

"Otherwise?"

"He's a loyalist, would he give a good card to a rebel?"

The Bound Guo Jia player reminded him sourly from the side.

He had figured it out.

This guy's skill,

drawing three cards,

must mean one card has to go to the person who lost health,

and the other two can be taken by himself.

But,

even so,

he is still much stronger than him.

They are both Wei faction blood-selling generals,

he and Cao Chong sell one point of health and both draw about two cards.

How can this thing

draw three cards?

And he can sell other people's health to draw cards for himself.

It’s truly disgusting!

Gu Xuan glanced at Bound Guo Jia, who was looking at him with a face full of jealousy and envy,

and turned his head away indifferently.

This expression,

he had seen too many times.

It couldn't be helped.

That’s the one downside to playing underworld generals:

they make people jealous.

After the Bound Cao Cao player killed Bound Ma Chao with a strike and discarded cards for the Stone Axe,

he kept two hand cards

and ended the turn.

When it reached Gu Xuan's turn,

Cao Emperor Jin Yu's two jade legs dangled in the void above Gu Xuan's head.

The round fan in her hand fluttered gently,

bringing a faint breeze that lifted the black hair at her temples:

"Beautiful and virtuous, elegant and reserved."

Preparation phase,

skill [Quietude] activated.

This time,

Gu Xuan chose to add the number to the amount of cards he would obtain,

turning it into three.

A faint yellow light

emerged from beneath Cao Emperor Jin Yu,

circled her body once,

merged into her, and vanished instantly.

"Graceful and demure, pure and clean."

Originally, Gu Xuan was at low health and could only add one to the value,

but the Bound Cao Cao player had played a Peach Garden Oath,

filling his health back up.

Skill [Quietude] activated a second time.

Gu Xuan once again took the value he gained

and added it to the number of cards he could view from the top of the deck.

Now, as long as someone on the field took damage,

he could view four cards from the top of the deck,

then give any card to the injured person,

and obtain three of those cards for himself.

The players on the field

all silently watched the two rays of light that lit up on Cao Emperor Jin Yu one after another.

They,

up until now,

still didn't know what kind of skill this was.

The Bound Guo Jia player pondered secretly,

could it be some kind of awakening skill,

just waiting to meet the conditions

to awaken?

However, before he could think much more,

A Grain Shortage flew out from Gu Xuan's judgment area,

and the judgment began.

A card from the top of the deck flew out,

[Heart Flash]!

Judgment successful!

Gu Xuan skipped his draw phase.

Seeing this,

Gu Xuan didn't mind. By selling other people's health and his own,

he now

had seven cards in his hand.

Actually,

Cao Emperor Jin Yu could control the top of the deck

to make the judgment card fail,

but just now,

when skill [Corner Weeping] activated,

the top three cards were revealed,

and Gu Xuan didn't see any Club cards.

Moreover,

he was thinking about adding values while at full health,

so naturally, he couldn't let the Lord kill him to view and control the top of the deck again.

In that case,

the benefit wouldn't be as great as adding the value.

"Ten Thousand Arrows Shoot!"

Gu Xuan discarded a large-scale strategy card.

"Clatter!"

Health was deducted.

The Bound Guo Jia at position three had just sold health and hadn't even had time to activate his skill to draw cards,

when he heard Cao Emperor Jin Yu's miserable, soul-snatching voice:

"Tear-filled eyes weep, the beauty withers away."

Cao Emperor Jin Yu's expression was sorrowful.

As the swing swayed continuously,

she waved her round fan slightly,

and four cards from the top of the deck flew out directly,

landing in the void.

"No way!!"

The Bound Guo Jia player panicked.

"I'm the one who lost health! No matter what, I should be the one to draw cards first!"

"And, I only draw two cards when I sell one point of health,"

"you draw four cards right off the bat!!"

"Huh?!!"

Bound Guo Jia finally realized. He sat there blankly,

his mind suddenly becoming chaotic.

Four cards?

Wasn't it three?

How did one more appear?!!

"When Bound Ma Chao lost health, he could clearly only draw three!"

Bound Guo Jia couldn't understand.

Could it be...

related to the two times Gu Xuan activated his skill

during the preparation phase earlier?

But... how could that be?

Are there skills that can change the number of cards drawn from selling health?

If Gu Xuan were allowed to change it for a few more rounds,

wouldn't Cao Emperor Jin Yu draw a whole hand of cards every time someone lost a point of health?

…………

In the livestream,

some observant players saw this

and had already discovered the special nature of Cao Emperor Jin Yu as a general.

"I get it! The skill the big boss activated during the preparation phase is a prerequisite condition,

just like leveling up, he can upgrade the number of cards drawn!"

"That's right! Look, in the first round during the Lord's turn, when Bound Guo Jia sold health, the big boss didn't draw a single card,

but after the big boss's turn, whether the Lord lost health or Bound Ma Chao lost health,

the big boss could draw cards!"

"Why are you guys getting more and more absurd! How can there be a skill that upgrades its own skill? You're making me dizzy!"

"If that's the case... wouldn't this general be more invincible the later the game goes?"

"Exactly! He could already sell other people's health to draw his own cards, and now he can draw even more cards as the game goes on. It's ridiculously exaggerated!"

"This general isn't just an underworld general anymore, right?! Selling other people's health to draw his own cards, he's more like a living Yama!"

…………

The Bound Guo Jia player didn't understand.

He had never seen such an absurd skill and could only think that perhaps he had guessed wrong.

On the other side,

Gu Xuan had already chosen his cards.

He took the three best cards,

leaving only one Strike for Bound Guo Jia.

Bound Guo Jia looked at the Strike in his hand,

his mouth twitching slightly,

but

he was helpless.

Forget it, forget it. At least he drew three cards,

so it wasn't too much of a loss.

After Gu Xuan's skill finished activating,

Bound Guo Jia's [Legacy] finally began to activate.

"Follow the plan in order, Liaodong can be pacified!"

Two cards flew out from the top of the deck and into Bound Guo Jia's hand.

He gave one card to the Bound Ma Chao at position four.

"Flash!"

After the Bound Ma Chao at position four received the card,

he looked at Bound Guo Jia gratefully,

then played a Flash.

Subsequently, he played a Dodge card.
