Chapter 171

"Strike!"

"Roar!!"

Gu Xuan threw out an ordinary Strike. In his equipment area,

it was as if a Green Dragon had materialized.

The phantom of the Green Dragon Crescent Blade flashed and vanished.

The effect activated, continuing the pursuit!

This was also why Gu Xuan felt the Green Dragon Blade paired well with the [Pingxiang] skill.

When activating the [Pingxiang] skill, you cannot use other cards,

but you can trigger the effect of the Green Dragon Crescent Blade to continue playing Strikes.

This, when you don't have a Wolong Zhuge Repeating Crossbow and have extra Strikes in your hand,

can ensure that the skill damage of [Pingxiang] can all hit someone!

"Dodge!"

The Lu Xun player gritted his teeth.

He looked at his last remaining hand card,

feeling as uncomfortable as he could possibly be,

because his last hand card was a Strike!

There was absolutely no chance to trigger the [Lianying] skill to use immortal arts.

"Strike!"

Gu Xuan played another ordinary Strike.

He had plenty of Strikes in his hand now.

"Click!"

Under the blessing of the Green Dragon Crescent Blade effect,

the Lu Xun player finally couldn't hold on either.

The green light on his health value scattered,

and he lost one health point.

"Fire Strike!" Gu Xuan had no intention of stopping at all.

The seventh Fire Strike was played.

"Click!" The Lu Xun player's health dropped again!

"Fire Strike!" The eighth Fire Strike was played.

The Lu Xun player entered the dying state.

The Boundless Cao Ren player looked at the Peach in his hand,

and fell into deep thought again...

If he didn't save him, the next one would be his turn.

He sighed in his heart,

and then, he still threw out the Peach in his hand.

"Peach!"

A green light flew out from the card,

stabilizing the phantom of Lu Xun's general that was about to shatter.

Gu Xuan glanced at Boundless Cao Ren,

staring until the latter felt a chill down his spine.

Fortunately, Gu Xuan immediately shifted his target,

and continued to play cards.

"Galloping with generosity, sacrificing my body to resist the tigers and wolves!"

The great sword in Divine Jiang Wei's hand gathered all the firelight,

and the last "Fire Strike" was played!

"Click!"

Lu Xun was dying again.

The Boundless Cao Ren player sighed.

He had no Peach in his hand,

and couldn't save him.

But...

at the same time,

the Boundless Cao Ren player noticed with sharp eyes

that the great sword in Divine Jiang Wei's hand

had its firelight internalized, no longer as dazzling as before.

The heatwave in the competition arena receded,

everything returned to calm... and...

'Could it be...'

'He can't play any more Fire Strikes?'

The Boundless Cao Ren player's eyes lit up, and a glimmer of hope rose in his heart again.

If that were really the case,

he still had seven hand cards,

and there might just be a chance for a comeback!

………….

Boundary Cao Ren's idea of a comeback

the moment Gu Xuan pulled out the Wolong Zhuge Repeating Crossbow,

was already shattered.

He looks at the nineteen cards in Gu Xuan's hand area.

For a moment,

his heart is like dead ashes.

Gu Xuan originally had twelve hand cards,

killed three Rebels, drew nine cards,

and used the Green Dragon Crescent Blade to throw two ordinary Slashes.

Now, there are nineteen cards left in his hand!

Among these nineteen cards,

no matter how bad Gu Xuan's luck is,

basic cards like Slashes will definitely not be few.

Plus there are damage strategy cards...

Boundary Cao Ren doesn't even dare to hope he can survive.

Gu Xuan on the other side doesn't care what the Boundary Cao Ren player is thinking.

He throws out another ordinary Slash,

pointing at the Boundary Cao Ren player.

Boundary Cao Ren doesn't play a Dodge,

and takes this damage hard.

Gu Xuan raises his eyebrows.

Is this person still waiting for him to play a Wine Slash and then Dodge?

Nineteen cards,

Slashes and strategies are enough to kill this person.

where would he need a Wine-Strike?

The phantom of the Wolong Zhuge Repeating Crossbow flickered and roared in Gu Xuan's equipment area.

The Boundless Cao Ren player

finally fell under Gu Xuan's eighth Strike!

[Congratulations to the Lord and Loyalist side for winning the game!]

[Gold Beans +1800!]

[Player 1314 performed the best, extra Gold Beans +900!]

The notification sound of the game space appeared as usual.

The competition arena slowly disappeared.

In the blink of an eye,

Gu Xuan was back in the game space.

…………

The players in the livestream

had just recovered from the monstrous flames of Divine Jiang Wei's nine Fire Strikes,

only to find that Gu Xuan had already won.

"Holy crap! I thought the big boss's general was just for stacking limits and taking damage!"

"Yeah! After all, he kept increasing his health limit; who knew he was doing it to hoard for a burst?"

"Reducing nine health points, considered as using nine Fire Strikes, who can withstand that?"

"Little meat shield Dong Zhuo says he can't withstand it either."

"Divine Guan Yu thought all night and couldn't figure out why he could only use Hearts as Strikes."

"The Zhang Fei player has already cried himself to sleep in the bathroom; isn't this much fiercer than Roar?"

…………

Gu Xuan looked at the barrage,

and laughed.

Actually, this round,

his luck was pretty good,

drawing the Wolong Zhuge Repeating Crossbow.

Otherwise,

fighting Boundless Cao Ren would have taken more time.

After all, Divine Jiang Wei only had that one burst.

Just as he was thinking,

the game space notification came again:

[Detected that the player has participated in the Brawl event.]

[The game space is matching you for the next game!]

Gu Xuan listened to the mechanical voice of the game space,

and couldn't help but click his tongue.

It really doesn't give any time to rest at all.

Fortunately, he had soaked some goji berries in his thermos last night,

so his energy was still holding up today.

[Matching successful!]

[The game mode you are about to participate in is: Eight-Player Military Struggle!]

"Same as the last round, still eight players?"

Gu Xuan muttered to himself.

However,

there was nothing wrong with that.

Eight-Player Military Struggle,

you earn more beans.

A white light flashed,

and Gu Xuan appeared again in the competition arena for the Eight-Player Military Struggle.

Leaning back in his chair,

this round,

he was in the fourth position,

with the identity of a Rebel.

[General Selection Phase!]

[Please, Lord in the first position, select your general!]

Gu Xuan stared toward the first position.

He was very curious

what general the Lord would choose this round.

But in a moment,

a figure holding a broken arrow

appeared behind the Lord in the first position.

"I only hate that there are too few arrows to shoot you all to death!"

Seeing this,

Gu Xuan's expression couldn't help but become strange.

"Shen Pei?"

That Epic general with the same strength as Zuo Ci and Chicken Rib?

"Did this person also win ten games of Landlord in a row?"

And then chose Shen Pei from those trash Epic generals?

Or was it opened from a lucky bag?

Gu Xuan shook his head,

too lazy to think about it.

He looked at the five general frames in front of him.

Although Shen Pei was at the bottom of the Epic generals,

but,

compared to some standard generals and some low-tier boundary-breaking generals,

it was still much stronger.

He had to look at his selection frame,

don't let him fail.

Five general frames slowly appeared in front of Gu Xuan.

[Zhang Rang, Cao Chong, Cao Rui, Cao Pi, Boundless Cao Cao]

Looking at these five frames,

Gu Xuan's eyebrows twitched.

Did he poke a Cao family nest?

Why were there so many Wei blood-selling generals?

Reaching out to rub his eyebrows, Gu Xuan looked at Zhang Rang.

He was in the fourth position this round,

playing Zhang Rang was actually quite good.

He could see if there were any Rebel teammates ahead,

and then let the teammates give him cards.

Maybe he could blow up the Lord in one go.
