Chapter 423: Forget Flash, It's Useless Anyway!
A bit of health was lost, and then two numerical marks appeared.
Is this some kind of special mark for Mou Huang Gai?
It requires losing health to trigger.
Taking damage doesn't work?
Can it awaken after reaching a certain number?
Shouldn't an awakenable mark be on the General card?
Why is it on the health value?
A host of questions instantly arose in Liu Wei's heart.
"No wonder the big shot wanted me to use Slander on him."
"This mark must provide a buff to the big shot!"
Without a buff, the big shot wouldn't have let him do this.
…………
Inside the live stream room,
after the crowd of players saw the number appearing above Gu Xuan's health value,
they started shouting excitedly again:
"It's here! A new mechanic!"
"I've never seen a number on the health value before."
"Huang Gai and Jie Huang Gai both trade health for cards; could Mou Huang Gai lose health, then consume the numerical mark on his health to draw cards?"
"I think it's possible; after all, the big shot just traded one point of health for two points of unknown value. If that's true, it seems profitable."
"Big shot, play your cards faster! I want to know what that numerical mark '2' actually is!"
…………
After muttering a couple of times,
Liu Wei used a Peach card,
restoring his health value to three points,
and thus ended his turn.
During Gu Xuan's draw phase,
everyone present saw Mou Huang Gai holding an iron chain,
flicking it toward the deck,
the silver-white, thick iron chain piercing through the deck,
then wrapping four cards and returning them to Gu Xuan's hand.
"A fine bird perches on a good tree; a worthy minister chooses a lord to serve!"
Skill 【False Surrender】 activated!
During the draw phase, you may draw additional cards equal to the health value you have lost!
"Hmm?!"
"The effect of this numerical mark is drawing extra cards?"
Zhu Huan watched Gu Xuan draw cards,
and instantly formed a hypothesis.
Gu Xuan's health value had a numerical mark of two points,
and Gu Xuan had just drawn two extra cards.
His guess was probably pretty close.
If that's the case, we must deal with this Mou Huang Gai first.
Otherwise, once his mark's value increases,
the number of cards drawn per turn will be terrifying.
However, there should be a cap on the value added by such a skill, right?
Seeing this scene, Liu Wei
thought silently:
"It feels like an enhanced version of Heroic Bearing."
His Heroic Bearing allows drawing three extra cards.
The big shot's skill lets him draw just one more than that.
But if the big shot's mark increases a bit more,
will he be able to draw even more cards?
Doesn't that mean he gets stronger the later it goes?
Gu Xuan heard their words
and offered no further explanation.
Mou Huang Gai usually only has the chance to explode in the second round.
But, in this match,
Zhu Huan first dealt him one point of damage,
and then he let Jie Zhou Yu use Slander to deal him another point of damage.
Now, he is down two points of health,
and has drawn two extra cards.
Now there are eight cards in hand,
but to eliminate Zhang Song in one turn,
this is still not safe enough...
He must still activate 【False Surrender】 to lose one point of health,
this way, with three points of health lost,
he can play three Slash cards that cannot be responded to!
However...
what card should be given to Jie Zhou Yu?
Gu Xuan glanced at the cards in his hand,
if a Peach is given, he must lose two points of health and fall directly into near-death,
although he can gain four points of armor, stacking the armor up to five points,
but a Peach would still be needed to save him,
if only a normal card is given,
he would only need to lose one point of health,
gaining two points of armor,
plus the two points of armor gained from the one point of health lost just now,
totaling four points,
End of Chapter
