Chapter 269
if he is the Lord,
God Sima Shi's hidden skill [Concealment], besides before the start of the turn,
making other generals unable to judge what general he is,
has no other effect.
The other four players on the field were still struggling with choosing generals,
but,
the time for choosing generals in the game space is limited.
Even if the players dragged it out,
when the time came,
they had to choose a general,
otherwise, the game space would automatically choose the general the player uses most often as the general for this game.
Gu Xuan didn't wait long,
and all the players on the field had chosen their generals.
Second position: Bound Wei Yan,
Third position: Bound Hua Xiong,
Fourth position: Bound Sun Ce,
Fifth position: Bound Lu Bu.
Gu Xuan withdrew his gaze,
thinking to himself that it was as expected.
Before underworld generals became prevalent,
generals like Bound Guo Jia, Bound Xun Yu, Wu Dadi, and Bound Lu Bu
were still relatively mainstream.
After all, they weren't easy to die suddenly,
and they still had some strength.
The general lineup for this round,
except for the Bound Wei Yan in the second position,
who seemed like a Rebel,
the identities of the other players
weren't very obvious.
However,
that someone chose Hua Xiong was something Gu Xuan hadn't expected.
"Estimated that there were no generals left to choose in the general library?"
Gu Xuan muttered.
However,
in front of the "One-Punch Man,"
whether you are the six-health demon general Hua Xiong or the fifteen-health big meat-shield Tu Tu Gu,
it's all a matter of one punch.
…………Ten Thousand.
Gu Xuan withdrew his gaze.
General selection complete.
The turn of the Lord in the first position was about to begin.
All the players on the field
had their eyes fixed on the Lord in the first position,
wanting to know
what kind of ghost general this was!
The game officially began.
After the card-drawing phase ended,
it was Gu Xuan's preparation phase.
The black shadow shrouding the general behind him
finally dissipated.
A firm and low voice drifted from behind him:
"The God Sima clan is good at plotting, good at enduring, and good at placing you in a desperate situation!"
God Sima Shi's figure emerged from the black mist.
The players on the field who had been observing Gu Xuan
finally knew the information about this general.
"God Sima Shi?"
The Bound Wei Yan in the second position frowned.
Generals of the God Sima family,
shouldn't they all be of the Wei faction?
How did he become the Jin faction?
However,
combined with God Sima Shi's words just now,
people of the God Sima family are good at enduring.
'So, he endured at the start, not letting people know his identity?'
The Bound Wei Yan player seemed to understand,
feeling as if he had guessed part of God Sima Shi's skills.
Subsequently,
he turned his gaze toward the Lord's health value.
'Five-point limit, four-point health?'
A general who starts with residual health
is rare in the game space,
but not non-existent.
Moreover,
some of them, even if they are epic generals,
aren't very strong.
For example, Shen Pei.
This general, when acting as Lord, also has a four-point limit and three-point health,
but the skill strength is just there,
and he can't even compare to some Bound-breaking ones.
Therefore,
Bound Wei Yan wasn't very worried about the outcome of this game.
He had used this general
many times,
and in terms of strength...
The Bound Wei Yan player looked at the hand cards in front of him.
During the card-drawing phase just now,
he had deliberately drawn a few more Kills,
and now in his hand...
Three [Kill] cards, one [Dodge] card;
if the next turn deducts health points and there are extra [Kill] cards,
provided one's luck isn't too terrible,
one might just be able to beat the Lord into a severely crippled state.
If the card dealer is a bit more helpful,
killing the Lord outright
is not entirely impossible!
Thinking this way,
the player using Boundary Wei Yan sat on their chair, calm and collected,
quietly waiting for Gu Xuan to play his cards.
During the draw phase,
Gu Xuan drew two cards from the deck.
He looked at the six cards in his hand,
pondered for a moment,
and decided to target Boundary Wei Yan first.
This general
does have some strength.
If luck is on one's side,
one might just be able to finish him off instantly;
it is quite necessary to limit his hand cards.
"Cross the River and Demolish the Bridge!"
A [Cross the River and Demolish the Bridge] card was thrown out.
A progress bar for [Nullification] appeared on the field,
but,
it vanished immediately.
Clearly,
in the first round, with identities unknown,
the other players
did not want to waste their own cards to [Nullify] for others.
"Snap!"
Accompanied by a crisp sound,
one of the Boundary Wei Yan player's hand cards
instantly fell into the discard pile.
Gu Xuan threw out another [Kill] card,
pointing it at the Boundary Wei Yan player.
"Kill!"
The [Kill] was thrown, aimed at Boundary Wei Yan.
Boundary Wei Yan is in an early position,
and likely started with a hand full of damage cards.
This [Kill] has a high chance of hitting.
Purple light flickered in God Sima Shi's eyes as he stared coldly at Boundary Wei Yan.
"You are rebellious and deserve no pardon!"
In an instant,
the Boundary Wei Yan player felt the world turn upside down.
A thick sense of oppression spread throughout their entire body.
Alarm bells rang loudly in their heart:
'This guy, after hitting someone, wouldn't he have some extra effect like increased damage or forced hits?'
The Boundary Wei Yan player was not stupid;
they instantly guessed the potential skills attached to Gu Xuan's general.
Immediately,
suppressing the discomfort from this oppressive feeling,
they hurriedly threw out a card.
"Dodge!"
After throwing out this card,
the Boundary Wei Yan player did not lower their guard.
They were afraid that
the Lord's never-before-seen general
would force them to take this point of damage anyway.
However,
contrary to their expectations,
this [Kill]
was actually dodged with ease!
"No damage dealt?"
The Boundary Wei Yan player frowned and muttered.
Then why was the Lord's display just now so dramatic?
It was a bit baffling.
It had given them quite a scare just now.
They figured they must have been watching too many videos of "underworld" generals lately,
making them act all neurotic,
almost thinking the game space was crawling with "underworld" generals everywhere.
Thinking of this,
the Boundary Wei Yan player couldn't help but laugh.
"Worrying for nothing,"
"Where would the game space get so many perverted generals for me to encounter..."
This skill of the Lord's,
it probably only triggers if it hits someone, right?
But without a forced hit, it's a bit lackluster.
Just as they were thinking this,
Gu Xuan threw out another hand card:
"Peach Garden Oath!"
Pink peach blossom petals
drifted down from the void,
carrying endless vitality,
about to cover God Sima Shi's general phantom.
"Nullification!"
Just at this moment,
the number five position, Boundary Lu Bu,
suddenly threw out a [Nullification],
causing the [Peach Garden Oath] to fail against Gu Xuan.
"Is this round so fast that both rebels have already appeared?"
