Chapter 296: One-Second Speed Run
Two more masses of secrets entered his eyes, both brand new divine entities he had never seen or heard of.
While the progress increased significantly, Li Yu also discovered the difficulty and fun of "Chaos Cards."
"To unleash the maximum effect of the cards, one usually needs to express recognition for the divine entities branded in the cards, and to please and appease them."
"Each card is different."
"If the user only has one card, they can focus on using it... but once the number of cards is more than 'two,' the user has to actively split their soul."
"Like this Troll King, if he wants to perfectly unleash the power of the 【Witch】 and 【Gnome God】 cards, he has to appear lustful and praise the greatness of the Gnome God."
"Can he do it?"
"I'm afraid, it's very difficult."
"This is only two cards. When a player has more than a dozen Chaos Cards, the soul power to be invested will be an astronomical figure, and the difficulty of operation will be hell-level."
"But for practitioners of the Spirit Venerable path who are proficient in 'role-playing,' it is a huge benefit."
"Chaos Cards, couldn't it have been invented by 【Spirit Venerable】 or 【Lord of Change】?"
Li Yu asked this question in his heart, and at the same time looked at his eyelids.
This was a move he tried and tested!
Use the Truth Bubble to verify the guess.
But this time, it was denied.
The progress didn't move at all, which proved that Chaos Cards were not invented by these two gods who were good at causing trouble.
He was guessing and reasoning in his mind, and his hand movements were not slow at all.
Ten-second card playing!
Extremely unfriendly to players playing for the first time.
But Li Yu was intentional.
He didn't just open a perspective cheat, but also a full-function cheat.
Only using one or two seconds, he made his "soul power" appear incomparably delicious, and poured it into the only Chaos Card in his hand, 【Child of Hunger】.
In a trance, projections suddenly emerged in Li Yu's soul.
Behind a vast bronze gate embedded between two universes... crouched a scarlet evil god with twenty arms, bloated and fat, with a big mouth like a black hole, as if wanting to swallow the universe.
When this "divine projection" appeared, it meant that all the functions of this Chaos Card had been activated.
And, it was controlled by Li Yu.
Perfect state!
Li Yu realized this, and after another seven or eight seconds, the Troll King had also completed the soul power pouring.
Although he couldn't cheat like Li Yu and directly see through the best usage of the cards in his hand.
But after all, he was a player who had played before, and just by relying on the appearance and name of the divine entity branded on the card, he made similar movements.
He was muttering words, clearly flattering and appeasing.
At the same time, two similar but not quite the same expressions appeared on his face.
One was lustful.
The second was wretched.
Sure enough, under his hard performance, both cards showed obvious changes.
Strong divine Qi surged out together.
So the next moment, the Troll King played his cards confidently.
At the same time, he didn't forget to ridicule and hit the stupid human player in front of him:
"Little human thing, playing Chaos Cards for the first time, it's normal for your sanity to be cleared and you to become a manic idiot."
"Take a deep breath, get ready to welcome that delicious taste."
"Take a deep breath... hiss!"
The Troll King's ridicule wasn't finished.
On the card table purely condensed by the Eternal Mist, a scene appeared that shocked him and all the onlookers:
The moment the three Chaos Cards were played and landed on the table, they simultaneously condensed different divine projections.
Because the Troll King was considered an old player, he even arranged tactics for the two cards.
The Witch charmed in the front, and the Gnome God sneaked behind to attack.
The idea was good, but the opponent didn't play according to the routine at all.
Accompanied by terrifying roars, an indescribable storm of hunger surged out. The Child of Hunger, which was much larger than the "Witch" and "Gnome," condensed and formed, broke out of the mist, and twenty giant arms instantly grabbed the "Witch" and stuffed it directly into the scarlet giant mouth like a black hole.
It didn't even chew, swallowing it forcibly.
The next second, the Gnome God suffered the same fate. Although it possessed supernatural powers like invisibility and stealth, the divine entity in front of it was the 【Child of Hunger】. To it, everything in the world and the universe itself had only one positioning, and that was food.
It knew the position after a slight sniff, grabbed it from the mist, and swallowed it into its belly.
The scene was so brutal that it was like a "red fat otaku cannibal" with many hands eating a beautiful imperial sister first, and then eating a wretched old man.
There was no processing procedure, no skinning or bone-dismantling, all were swallowed alive.
Resistance?
Card duel?
Above, none of them.
What appeared was only crushing, and a confrontation that ended hastily.
Two divine entities were swallowed whole, and the Child of Hunger rarely felt a trace of long-lost "fullness," wanting to pat its belly and burp.
But immediately, except for two masses of soul power in its belly, it was empty.
The Witch and Gnome returned to the Chaos Cards, and then directly turned into two masses of brilliance, shooting towards Li Yu.
Two-on-one was completely defeated, and the Chaos Cards changed hands because of this.
When this scene appeared!
All onlookers were stunned.
What happened?
It ended in one second?
What did this human player do?
The Troll King was equally confused. Although he hid a cunning heart under his seemingly savage and rude appearance, he couldn't turn the corner for a while.
But before these questions could be answered, his mood turned to horror.
"Roar!"
Accompanied by the dissatisfied roar of the Child of Hunger at him, the two masses of soul power from the Troll King were digested.
Plus the backlash from the Chaos Cards, he didn't even have time to say anything, let alone take a deep breath, and fell directly into a negative state.
Sanity, cleared to zero.
The mania and pain brought by soul damage filled his body and soul.
In the eyes of a group of onlookers watching the show, the Troll King suddenly became crazy, his eyes blood-red, his face twisted, strange roars and murmurs came from the depths of his throat, and foul-smelling saliva poured down like a waterfall...
"Manic idiot, what a precise description."
Li Yu held the three Chaos Cards and looked at the Troll King in front of him, unable to help but praise.
Changing from one to three, although it couldn't be counted as a big gain.
After all, after the first round, there would definitely be players with four or five Chaos Cards, or even more.
But there was no doubt that he had become the focus of the audience directly.
It must be known that the Troll King had quite a reputation in the Spirit Realm. He was the king of the Troll Kingdom, and for many years, he had launched countless slaughter wars, killing countless so-called heroes. And afterwards, he enjoyed their corpses.
And Li Yu was just a human who looked vulnerable.
Before this, although because of that supernatural power that could move and transport others indiscriminately, Li Yu's persona identity had also been paid attention to by many honored guests.
But they only thought he was a fun human, and never felt he was an opponent or a tricky powerhouse.
Now, it was different.
The other duels in the field were still continuing, and not a single one showed signs of ending quickly.
Li Yu was the exception.
He cleared the first round in one second.
So fast that even the Spirit race prophet who bet on his victory didn't react.
But soon, screams and discussions about Li Yu sounded one after another:
"How could this be? How did he do it?"
"Isn't it his first time playing Chaos Cards? Just ten seconds after getting started, he could activate the divinity of the only card in his hand?"
"What card is that? It seems I haven't seen it before."
"It can be seen that it is a top-tier card. I guess even if it is not as good as the Blood God Card or Furnace Card, it won't be much worse."
"One-second speed run in the first round... this record can be ranked in the forefront even among all the records of Chaos Card games in the Spirit Realm."
"It's over, I'm going to lose everything. Spirit race prophet, you must have bought that human because he looks good to become the final winner."
"What's there to ask? Didn't the two of them mess around for a long time in front of us on the battlefield before? Must have been satisfied, right."
"It's only the first round. The players who advance to the next round have at least four Chaos Cards. He only has three, and his experience is insufficient. It's impossible for him to win again."
……
Li Yu couldn't hear a word of the chaos outside the field.
At this moment, he hoped that other rounds would also have speed runs.
The deadline for the Truth Bubble was already quite long, but if it dragged on round after round, his cheat would expire in advance.
Although he had some confidence now that he could defeat other players even without borrowing the "Truth Power."
Nothing else!
The perfect role-playing method without flaws that comes with the Spirit Venerable path is simply a supernatural power tailored for 【Chaos Cards】.
In other words, no matter how many Chaos Cards Li Yu has in his hand, he can perfectly unleash the divine power of each card. How can the opponent win against him?
Simply a heaven-chosen, invincible Chaos Card player.
However, recharging the Truth Bubble was difficult, and Li Yu didn't want to waste any of it.
Being able to use it for one more second is one more second.
For example, at this moment, he was rubbing the two new cards "Witch" and "Gnome" in his hand.
Touching brought deeper prying, especially since the status of the Witch and Gnome God was far inferior to the Child of Hunger, and they couldn't block the Truth Power even more.
Two masses of secrets that he couldn't see through by prying across space earlier emerged in Li Yu's mind.
The first mass was about the secret history between the Slaanesh God and the Spirit race.
And the second mass was a big surprise.
"As a secondary god affiliated with the Slaanesh God... the birth node of the Witch was in a major event that happened a long time ago. This event is also one of the black histories of the now extremely powerful Sin God, which is engraved on the pillar of shame."
"After the Slaanesh God swallowed 90% of the souls of the Spirit race, for some reason, he was caught by several Spirit race demigods and imprisoned, trying to take out the swallowed Spirit race souls from his belly."
"In order to save himself, the Slaanesh God gave birth to the secondary god 【Witch】..."
……
"Although the Gnome God was expelled and fled after the theft failed and he faced the Ancient Saint."
"But he was extremely vengeful and couldn't get rid of his itchy-handed habit."
"So he hid and endured for many years afterwards. This time, taking advantage of the Ancient Saint being away, he sneaked directly into his divine kingdom and secretly read some secret books left by the Ancient Saint."
"Yes, this time he didn't steal any physical treasures, but stole a secret: the Ancient Saint's grand plan."
"It's just that the secret was too shocking. Even if he only read the beginning, the Gnome God was still frightened."
"In order to prevent himself from being silenced by the 【Ancient Saint】, the Gnome God should have completely destroyed this memory."
"But he felt that he was a great and shameless thief, always adhering to the principles of never leaving empty-handed, what is stolen is mine, and stolen goods must never be returned, etc."
"So he separately sealed this memory in the depths of his soul, and set an opening secret order, and then destroyed the memory about the secret order... Thus he realized the secret of forever keeping this stolen big secret, but would not be discovered and silenced by the Ancient Saint."
"This secret order is now mine."
"As long as the altar is set up and the offerings are prepared, the 【Gnome God】 can be summoned. At that time, I will use the secret order to extract the memory from his divine soul."
"And the Gnome God won't even notice anything."
"Simply a perfect safe."
It was also thanks to Li Yu now being in a state of absolute rational truth.
So after prying into the second mass of information, he was still calm.
If it were Li Yu in his normal state, he would probably be excited.
What is an unexpected harvest?
This is clearly it.
Li Yu even felt that the value of these two memories alone was enough to break even, and even exceed it.
The twenty-fourth Truth Bubble had already completed two-thirds of its charging progress with these secrets.
At the same time, as if hearing his expectations.
The first round of duels ended quickly one after another.
Except for Li Yu, there were four other winners.
They were the Child of Taboo, Joseph, the Rat Demon, and a weirdo wearing tattered yellow clothes.
Clearly, this meant that one player would be very unlucky to be given a bye.
No need to fight, directly advance to the third round.
"According to the urine nature of Joseph, this Lord of Change god-chosen one, I will definitely be that unlucky guy."
"The second round bye, although I can rest longer and save some soul power, but in the third round, I will have to face two opponents with at least seven or eight cards in their hands. How can I fight this?"
"I have the fewest Chaos Cards in my hand, only three."
"In the eyes of others, if it is arranged like this, I will have no hope."
These thoughts of Li Yu became reality the next moment.
Although Joseph's non-male, non-female, charming voice didn't sound, I don't know what other means he used.
The "Chaos Box," which was both a casino and a gambling tool, made such an arrangement without any accident.
Li Yu was given a bye.
When this scene happened, other gamblers in the carriage outside the field were howling again.
"This human player is indeed a top-tier unlucky guy, even this kind of thing happened."
"In the third round, he has to use three Chaos Cards against others' seven or eight. If he can still win, then I will recommend him to participate in the 【Chaos Card Gods Tournament】."
"There will be no miracles. He will definitely lose. The four players currently dueling all have top-tier cards."
"I'll open another side bet, about this human player. Spirit race prophet, do you still want to bet?"
"Bet!"
……
ps: If you don't like this way of expanding the worldview, I will finish this part as soon as possible. In addition, I shamelessly ask for a monthly ticket. This book has exceeded one million words, which is not easy. Fatty Fish is really a newcomer mentality now, continue to work hard, the goal is to finish the book well.
