Chapter 221: This skill must have a usage limit!

~6 min read 1,190 words

…………

"Usually, the big shot ends the battle in a minute. This time, won't the big shot be finished off by the Landlord in a minute?"

"Hard to say. If the general the big shot chose needs to awaken like Lü Lu Lingqi, and has no defensive ability outside of his turn,

this game is probably doomed."

"When choosing generals just now, he should have chosen Sun Sun Hanhua."

"Sun Sun Hanhua wouldn't be useful either. This isn't directly attacking the big shot; this is damage conducted by the Iron Chain Link."

…………

The livestream's barrage was arguing endlessly.

At the Long Teng venue,

Zhou Zhou Xiaoyi saw that Gu Xuan had won the previous match,

and had happily taken a tub of ice cream from the lounge fridge to start devouring it.

But now,

looking at this scene,

she couldn't eat the ice cream in her hand anymore,

and began to worry for Gu Xuan.

Zhou Zhou Xiaoyi stuck out her tongue,

licked the ice cream off the corners of her small mouth,

placed the large tub of ice cream on the coffee table in front of her,

and let out a heavy sigh.

"The big shot's life is so bitter!"

Last turn, he was crazily targeted by Bound Huang Gai at the start.

This turn,

not long after it started,

the Landlord had almost beaten him and his teammate, the two peasants, to death!

Li Li Bingbing also gave a bitter laugh.

"This Zhang Song player's luck is also 05 simply too good."

"With the Knowledge skill active, Huang Yueying possession,"

"and he has a Wolong Zhuge Repeating Crossbow... Ma Liang is in trouble."

"Gu, this big shot, probably won't have a teammate this round."

Li Li Bingbing said this,

but this was still the best-case scenario right now.

If Gu, the big shot, didn't have defensive ability outside of his turn,

then in this round,

he would probably be gone along with Ma Liang...

………

Watching the damage conduct,

leaving both peasants heavily crippled,

the Zhang Song player couldn't help but show surprise.

This round, his luck was still quite good.

A direct massive advantage start.

Looking at the current situation, he could at least finish off the peasant Ma Liang.

As for the one remaining,

if he didn't have many Dodges in his hand,

then it should be soon too.

"It seems, I am one step closer,"

"to the 1. million Gold Beans for the finals!"

Zhang Song was still sighing,

when he suddenly discovered,

that the game space's prompt progress bar was not on him,

but had appeared on the third-position Gu Xuan!

"What's the situation?"

The Zhang Song player frowned and looked at Gu Xuan.

Behind him,

the Xue Xue Lingyun general phantom, held a silver needle in one hand,

and was examining a scroll of embroidered canvas in the other.

There was purple glow flowing on the canvas,

which looked like the precursor to activating a skill.

"A health-sacrificing general?"

Seeing this, the Zhang Song player's heart skipped a beat.

If it was sacrificing health to draw cards,

having lost two points of health, it should be at least four cards.

Then it was really hard to say,

if he could finish off Ma Liang in one turn.

And at this moment, the Ma Liang player,

also had his gaze firmly fixed on Gu Xuan.

"A health-sacrificing general?!" He said with quite a bit of surprise.

Then there was still hope!

After all, the Landlord could only play two Slashes per turn,

and now the Zhang Song player had already played one.

If Gu Xuan was playing a general like Guo Jia who gives cards,

and gave him a Dodge,

he might still have a chance to survive this turn.

He still had a Snatch in his hand.

As long as he could survive,

relying on Ma Liang's card-giving mechanism,

perhaps,

their peasant faction would still have a chance to turn the tables?

On the other side,

Gu Xuan looked at the response progress bar in front of him,

pondering for a while whether to activate the skill 【Dark Weave】.

He hadn't played any red cards before, nor had he activated the 【Rosy Tears】 skill,

so he didn't know what color the card on top of the deck was.

If,

this time he activated the skill 【Dark Weave】 and it was judged as black,

with a pile of trick cards in the discard pile, the only life-saving card,

was just one Alcohol.

Even if he took it and gave it to Ma Liang, it would have no effect on the current situation,

and it would also cause 【Dark Weave】 to fail for this turn.

Now, the Zhang Song player had eight cards in his hand.

If he had a Wolong Zhuge Crossbow and many Slashes,

after killing his teammate, he would come to kill her too.

Relying on 【Rosy Tears】's original three-card draw amount,

it might not be enough to last until his own turn,

and he would die on the spot.

Furthermore,

even if the 【Dark Weave】 skill was judged as red and reset the 【Rosy Tears】 count,

it wouldn't have any meaning.

He hadn't used 【Rosy Tears】 originally,

so the count was already three; he didn't need to reset the count this time at all.

In summary, if judged as black,

he could only give his teammate an Alcohol and a trick card,

and his teammate would still die, plus he would waste the reset count and might even get himself killed.

If judged as red, it would be even more meaningless.

Therefore,

Gu Xuan ultimately did not activate the skill,

and directly canceled the response of the progress bar.

If his teammate died, so be it.

As long as he kept himself safe,

he could still win this game.

The purple glow in Xue Xue Lingyun's hands dimmed,

and the play progress bar,

returned to the Zhang Song player once again.

"What's the situation?!"

He had health to sacrifice and a skill, but didn't use it?!

The Ma Liang player stared at Gu Xuan with wide eyes,

his eyes full of disbelief.

Although he didn't know Xue Xue Lingyun's skill,

health-sacrificing skills were generally beneficial, right?

You,

are you serious about not using it directly?

…………

"Big shot... could this skill be some kind of negative skill? Why didn't he use it even after it was triggered? First time seeing this."

"Health-sacrificing skills are generally beneficial to oneself or teammates, right? I've never seen a health-sacrificing skill with negative effects."

"Who knows? It's not strange at all for the generals the big shot brings out to have some mechanisms that haven't appeared before."

…………

The Zhang Song player was also a bit confused.

"Could it be that this guy's mentality was broken by me?"

However,

it was better if he didn't use the skill.

He was actually hoping for that!

However,

the Zhang Song player immediately began to play a Slash against the Ma Liang player again!

"Thunder Slash!"

he chuckled,

and the player Zhang Song immediately began to play a Kill against the player Ma Liang again!

"Thunder Kill!"
