Chapter 164

~8 min read 1,514 words

Gu Xuan used a Dodge,

Avoiding this damage.

At the same time, the [Nine Expeditions] mark also became six points!

Seeing this,

The Boundary Sun Sun Shangxiang player was also quite helpless.

Among the cards drawn later, there were no strategy cards at all,

Otherwise,

She would have used them on Gu Xuan no matter what.

After equipping the Vine Armor,

During the discard phase,

The Boundary Sun Sun Shangxiang player looked at Gu Xuan, then at her own hand cards, and was dumbfounded.

Because she discovered,

That she now had four cards in hand,

And she had to discard one no matter what.

Once she discarded it,

Wouldn't that be benefiting Gu Xuan again?

However,

She couldn't not discard!

With three health points, she could only keep three hand cards.

If she didn't choose to discard now, when the discard phase ended,

The game space would randomly discard her cards!

"This skill is really a rascal!"

The Boundary Sun Sun Shangxiang player couldn't help but grit her teeth.

This [Heavenly Appointment] mark stacks way too easily!

As Boundary Sun Sun Shangxiang discarded a Spade Slash,

The [Heavenly Appointment] mark on Gu Xuan,

Added another point,

And now, it had reached five points!

One more point,

And he could continue to increase his health limit and draw cards!

It was Lu Xun’s turn in the fifth position.

He looked at Boundary Sun Sun Shangxiang in the fourth position,

And then at Boundary Guan Yu in the sixth.

"Boundary Sun Sun Shangxiang is a rebel, Boundary Guan Yu..."

"A bit hard to guess,"

But looking at his expression when Gu Xuan attacked Boundary Huang Gai just now, is he also a rebel with a high probability?

The Lu Xun player rubbed his chin with his right hand.

He was also a rebel,

But he had no weapons or -1 Horses in his hand, so he couldn't hit anyone.

After thinking for a moment,

The Lu Xun player decided to recast an Iron Chain, to see if he could try his luck and draw cards.

The moment the Iron Chain entered the discard pile,

"Heaven and Earth work together; why fear that the Han way shall not flourish!"

Gu Xuan’s [Heavenly Appointment] marks had already reached six points!

The next moment, the six marks were removed,

Gu Xuan’s health limit became seven,

And subsequently, he drew two more cards!

The Lu Xun player saw this,

And couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

"I just recast an Iron Chain,"

"And you can even stack marks from that?!?"

At first, others discarded cards to stack marks,

Later, playing Slashes in response to Southern Barbarians or Duels also stacked marks, but when he played Slashes at people, he didn't stack marks.

"What exactly are the trigger conditions for this skill to stack marks, increase health limit, and draw cards?"

Incomprehensible,

Truly incomprehensible.

"I don't know the specific trigger conditions,"

"But this skill effect is only slightly strong in the first few rounds."

At this moment,

The Boundary Guan Yu player in the sixth position, who had been observing Gu Xuan,

Used a look that seemed to have seen through everything,

And looked at Gu Xuan.

Speaking rationally, he slowly analyzed:

"His skill actually requires the marks and the health limit to be the same number. In that case,"

"It will remove an equal amount of marks, turn them into one health limit, and draw two cards!"

"This skill looks awesome when the health limit is low in the early game."

"But when the health limit increases later, it’s very hard to stack... actually, the strength is just so-so."

Having a high health limit doesn't mean having a lot of health.

There are only so many Peaches in the deck,

Gu Xuan couldn't possibly draw a hand full of them all at once,

And restore all his health points!

Then,

This skill is quite useless,

At most, it counts as a plus version of Hua Xiong.

After the health limit increases,

The card-drawing effect is greatly discounted in the late game.

Without offensive capability, he’s just a big blood bag,

Nothing more than the difference of being able to take a few more Slashes.

………….

Hearing the Boundary Guan Yu player’s analysis,

The other players were thoughtful, as if it really was like that.

The Boundary Wang Yi player’s originally excited expression stopped on her face, and her expression now was slightly stiff.

It was indeed as the Boundary Guan Yu player said...

And,

The most important point for a loyalist is the cooperation with the Lord, and whether they can assist the Lord.

Divine Jiang Wei’s skill keeps increasing his own health limit,

Just having a lot of health himself,

Actually, for the Lord, it's not very useful.

The Rebels aren't fools either,

and won't keep staring at you, a Loyalist, to hit.

Thinking of this,

the Boundary Wang Yi player sighs slightly in her heart.

However,

she doesn't think she will lose.

After all,

she has seen that Divine Jiang Wei also has another kind of [Nine Expeditions] mark.

She just doesn't know what the effect will be?

Gu Xuan glances at Boundary Guan Yu.

This guy isn't wrong.

Divine Jiang Wei's [Heavenly Appointment] skill is harder to activate the higher the health value is,

especially when there aren't many underworld generals and others draw fewer cards.

But,

Divine Jiang Wei's other skill, Nine Expeditions, is there to make up for this shortcoming!

Plus the limited skill Pingxiang,

he really doesn't know why Boundary Guan Yu, without knowing anything about Divine Jiang Wei,

dares to say such things!

However, he doesn't refute anything.

When the time comes, these players will know they were wrong.

Lu Xun holds the Slash he just recast in his hand,

and for a moment, he doesn't know who to attack.

Boundary Guan Yu's words just now

indicate

that he is also likely a Rebel.

Now,

he, a Rebel, is caught between two Rebels,

and can't hit the Lord or the Loyalist.

The Lu Xun player sighs,

and can only let Gu Xuan benefit.

Afterward, he discards two basic cards, leaves three hand cards, and ends his turn.

"Lift the stone to mend the blue sky; if not me, then who?"

This electronic sound makes the Lu Xun player's eyes twitch.

He looks toward Gu Xuan's direction.

Sure enough, he sees two discarded basic cards merge into firelight,

gathering on Divine Jiang Wei's great sword.

On his general card, two more [Heavenly Appointment] marks appear!

It is the turn of Boundary Guan Yu in position six.

As expected,

this guy who specializes in collecting protection fees,

as soon as his Play Phase starts,

immediately activates the skill [Righteousness Severed],

asking the Lord for protection fees.

A Club Slash is discarded by Boundary Guan Yu.

"Heaven and Earth work together; why worry that the Han path will not flourish!"

The electronic sound falls,

and the Heavenly Appointment mark changes again, becoming three points!

At the same time,

the Boundary Guan Yu illusory shadow roars at Boundary Wang Yi,

"The grace is severed, the righteousness is cut!"

Boundary Wang Yi shows a Diamond Dodge.

With the Righteousness Severed effect, the Boundary Guan Yu player takes this Dodge away.

Subsequently,

he activates the skill [Martial Saint] again!

He throws out the Diamond Dodge he just took from Boundary Wang Yi.

"Slash!~!"

The Green Dragon Crescent Blade in the Boundary Guan Yu illusory shadow's hand dances with great power,

bringing up a biting wind of blades,

and slashes toward the Lord in position one.

"Traitor, where are you going!"

"Dodge!"

The Boundary Wang Yi player throws out the last Dodge in her hand.

Now,

she only has one hand card left.

However... four Rebels, Boundary Huang Gai, Boundary Sun Sun Shangxiang, Lu Xun, and Boundary Guan Yu have all appeared.

The Boundary Great Qiao and Boundary Cao Ren behind must definitely be one Loyalist and one Traitor.

There's no need to worry about sudden death.

After the Boundary Guan Yu player fails to hit with the Slash,

he throws a strategy card at Boundary Great Qiao on the side.

"Lead Away a Sheep!"

The straw rope is handed over,

and the Boundary Guan Yu player takes the leftmost hand card of Boundary Great Qiao.

He glances at the cards in his hand,

equips a Cold Ice Sword,

and equips a Bagua formation.

Only then does he end his turn.

It is the turn of Boundary Great Qiao in position seven.

She is a Loyalist.

The Boundary Great Qiao player looks at the situation on the field.

Boundary Cao Ren in position eight is highly likely to be the Traitor, and currently poses no threat to the Lord.

No need to Indulge.

Boundary Huang Gai in position two still has two drops of blood.

If the Lord doesn't kill him,

then in the next wave, he will likely explode again

and deal damage.

Thinking this way,

the Boundary Great Qiao player moves her mind slightly,

activates the skill [National Beauty], plays a Diamond Dodge, and draws another card.

"Please rest!"
