80: Shi Li stood up

As everyone could see, this monster's card face was too powerful to contend with.

Firstly, this guy carries 100% Lifesteal, which means he drains 100 points when the target is in Defense, and 200 points when not in Defense.

This will greatly delay the number of rounds it takes for the giant card's percentage damage to be harvested.

However, it has neither Resilience nor an Overbearing Body, so theoretically, it could be solved by using a 'control-kill method'.

That is, the entire deck stacks hard controls into a seamless cycle, controlling it to death.

But the key is that considering issues like warm-up, energy cycles, and skill connection, it's not easy for a 4+1 deck to achieve a control-kill.

With 5 cards, at most, only 1 target can be control-killed.

Now the problem is that this guy brought a 'clone' that shares attack and health.

If you control one, the other will instantly kill someone.

This double threat from the opponent simply cannot be controlled.

Even the Tail's threat is greater; it can cross 1 row to attack targets in the back.

Previously, Zhang He took 8 rounds to defeat that Rock Giant Centipede; now, 8 rounds are enough for the opponent to blast her deck into smithereens twice over!

"Let me try."

However, just as everyone was disheartened, Shi Li suddenly walked in front of them.

"Wait a minute! This is not the time to show off!"

Old Han's heart tightened, and he immediately shouted.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the tag above Shi Li's head change.

Gold 5

↓

Gold 6

Then, a golden light emanated from his body.

Shi Li broke through on the spot, in front of everyone!

"Alas…"

But Shi Li himself let out a soft sigh.

He had just accepted the Despicable Goblin's simulation mission.

With only 83% completion, he had originally planned to grind it more.

Accepting it now meant he would get at least 1 less hand card, and the character card's entries weren't 100% satisfactory either.

However, with the situation unfolding before him, he had no choice but to do so.

With a raise of his hand, he played his player marker.

It's over!

This was the thought that jumped into everyone's minds present.

They couldn't imagine where this greenhorn got the guts to challenge such a giant monster; even if you break through on the spot, it won't help!

However, as Shi Li revealed the cards one by one, their attitudes gradually began to change.

"Please enlighten me!"

The first to be revealed was the Red Blade Maiden, in the ace position.

"It's the noble percentage damage!"

"No wonder he's confident challenging this Centipede King…"

"But this card alone isn't enough, is it?"

"That's right, the opponent has Lifesteal; even with 5 or 6 rounds, he won't be able to defeat the Centipede King."

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh…"

The second card revealed was the Fluorescent Vine, in the first row of another column.

"This one is okay; with sustain, at least the berserk ace can cast skills a few more times."

"But why would he put this card in such a dangerous position? If it's instantly killed at the start, wouldn't that be a direct waste?"

"Also, this kid's card revealing order is a bit messy, isn't it?"

"Guard the homeland!"

The third card revealed was the Crow Warrior, located in front of the ace, commonly known as the guard card position.

"It's true that this card game must include control cards, but can it rely solely on 1 Chasing Wind control card?"

"The key is that it also needs to warm up; how can it cover the control cycle?"

"It's over; after revealing 3 cards, there's only 1 warm-up control."

The fourth card revealed was the Despicable Goblin, in the second row.

"Be careful, be careful!"

The owner of the high-pitched voice was a familiar small green-skinned creature, with a large belly and an ugly face.

Despicable Goblin

Wise, 20 points, two-star

Attack 20, 100/100, 30/30

Despicable Throwing Knife - Passive: When Despicable Goblin casts a skill on a target, it additionally launches (20-10) points of attack.

Sand Toss - 20 Energy: Despicable Goblin selects 1 target, causing it to fall into the Blinded state (T2).

(Blinded: Cannot select a target this round)

The number in parentheses represents a subtraction from the original attack power.

If Despicable Goblin serves as the ace, then the Despicable Throwing Knife's damage will become (50-10) = 40 points, which is quite considerable.

"Finally, another control card, but it's a Wise type…"

"This is useless after one use; how can it form a control cycle?"

"Does he have to keep using Charge to compensate? Does he have that much Charge?"

"The key is that your Goblin can control 1 at the start but can't control 2."

As each card was revealed, there was more skepticism from everyone.

Until Shi Li revealed the last card in the first row.

"Jump!"

Blocking the Despicable Goblin was the Jumping Guard.

Jumping Guard

Steadfast, 30 points, two-star

Attack 30, 50/50+50/50, 0/40

Multi-core - Characteristic: Jumping Guard's health is divided into 2 segments, unaffected by any external buff effects.

Provocation - Passive: On the round Jumping Guard is revealed, it can Taunt 1 target (T2).

Unyielding - Passive: When Jumping Guard's health reaches 0, it gains 1 round of Stasis.

(Taunt: Forces the target to attack self)

(Stasis: Delays departure)

One of the entries carried by Tiao Tiao was precisely Provocation, which Shi Li had just acquired a few days ago.

"This card… so strong!"

"So that's it! His first-row card can not only block for 3 rounds but also comes with starting control!"

"As long as it's Taunted, the Tail won't be able to attack targets across the row."

Everyone suddenly realized.

Moreover, Shi Li's deployment of troops was actually very meticulous.

Fluorescent Vine Jumping Guard

Empty Goblin

Empty Crow Warrior

Empty Red Blade Maiden

After seeing this deck layout, the void commentators scrambled to analyze it.

"I understand! The meaning of him placing Fluorescent Vine in the first row!"

"Actually, for this lineup, all that's needed is to ensure Red Blade Maiden has enough health to cast her skills!"

"With 1 Taunt and 1 Blinded at the start, at least Fluorescent Vine definitely won't die in the first round!"

"If Fluorescent Vine is taken out in the second round, it means Jumping Guard can Stasis on the field for an extra round, and Shi Li only needs to play more Treatment to preserve Red Blade Maiden's health."

"And every extra round Fluorescent Vine survives is a gain; the longer it survives, the easier Shi Li will win!"

However, someone among them seemed to have a prophetic mouth.

At the start of the 1st round, the main body was hit with Blinded and couldn't attack, while the tail was Taunted and ended up taking out one bar of Tiao Tiao's health.

This was still normal.

But at the very beginning of the 2nd round, Fluorescent Vine was immediately taken out.

However, at least before it was taken out, it managed to heal Red Blade Maiden in T1.

In the 3rd round, the Crow Warrior controlled the tail, and Shi Li threw his only 1 Charge to the Goblin.

In the 4th round, Tiao Tiao exited the field.

In the 5th round, the Goblin controlled the main body, preventing it from Lifestealing, which resulted in the Crow Warrior being taken out by the tail.

In the 6th round, the Goblin was taken out, Red Blade Maiden defeated the main body, and the battle ended.
