129: Chapter 130 Karin's Hidden Talent? Luck-related Attribute?
30 minutes later.
Shen Mo finished his shopping trip with a sigh of regret. He couldn't get the trait in such a short time, and he had already spent 27,000 points, leaving the rest untouched for now.
Glancing at the match on the field, Shen Mo exclaimed in surprise: "Karin is quite tenacious, actually making it to Stage 6 against Mike?! And their health is so close?!"
[Stage 6-3 match ended!]
[Karin vs. Mike, Mike wins!]
[First place: Mike, HP: 32!]
[Second place: Karin, HP: 24!]
"Karin! Go! Crush this guy! You can do it!"
"Their HP is really close!"
"Is an upset possible? It would be hilarious if Mike lost."
"No chance. The opponent is playing cards now; this girl's luck has reached its limit."
The Void spectators whispered among themselves.
Shen Mo scanned the lineups of both sides on the field. Good lord, 9 Dimension vs. a full set of 95!
Is it that ruthless?!
Mike seemed to have used his Golden Spatula Crown item card again, giving both players an extra slot at the start. Mike is running Ten Dimensions, and with the Golden Spatula Crown, he can form the build with 9 units!
And this guy doesn't know where he got 2 more golden spatulas.
Theoretically, Ten Dimensions is already complete, but...
Shen Mo's expression was a bit strange. He didn't know whether to call it good luck or bad luck. He had the spatulas, but the problem was that Mike got a spatula for a class emblem but couldn't get a second Needlessly Large Rod!
Looking at Karin's side.
She was cautious and nervous the whole way. Her tactics left Shen Mo speechless, because this girl was actually imitating him—saving economy to reach 10 units!
The point is... she actually managed to reach 10 units!
There were 11 pieces on the field, including a full 7 2-Star 5-Cost units and 3 2-Star 4-Cost units! There was also one 1-Star 5-Cost unit!
The most ridiculous thing was that there were 7 Briars on Karin's field right now!
She was only 2 away from completing the feat of a 3-Star 5-Cost unit!
"Good grief, I always thought this girl was lucky, but it seems it's more than just a little!"
"Theoretically, Mike should have crushed her with Ten Dimensions long ago. She actually dragged him to this stage, and he was even forced to take 2 of Karin's Briars! Just to prevent her from getting a 3-Star 5-Cost unit!"
Shen Mo stroked his chin, lost in thought.
The way he looked at Karin started to flicker.
He hadn't paid much attention to Karin before, but recently, having chatted more with Long Chen, and becoming more familiar with the rules of the Gods Arena, looking at Karin's performance now, he suddenly realized some issues.
"Could this girl... also have some hidden ability?"
Shen Mo was unsure.
When he first met Karin, Shen Mo just used her as a tool. After all, the Dragon Kingdom was surrounded by enemies at the time, and to ensure his winning streak, he needed a tool to cover for him.
At that time, the environment of the matchmaking matches was dominated by single-card quality.
Almost everyone was frantically chasing 3-star pieces.
This was not friendly to Shen Mo!
golden spatula is a game of luck. Sometimes, whether you can win the game depends entirely on whether the card dealer is generous. A 3-Star 4-Cost unit is hard to chase, but if the luck is there, it's not impossible.
Therefore, Karin's only role at the time was to help Shen Mo block certain cards.
To prevent the opponent from having explosive luck.
Thinking back now.
The first time he teamed up with Karin seemed to be the match where Sakura Country and the Korean team were sniping him. At that time, Yotsuki Kami and Kim Soo-jun were both running the Faerie lineup and chasing Kalista, while Shen Mo was running 7 Magic Warriors, which also needed the Kalista card.
The result?
The three of them only got 1 card in the end!
Instead, Karin, who wasn't playing this lineup, was the first to get a 2-Star Kalista!
Successfully helping Shen Mo block the possibility of the opponent getting a 3-Star Kalista!
The second time, playing against India, Sharu wanted to play Mowar Kassadin. Shen Mo's plan at the time was to let Karin block 4-cost cards to prevent a 3-Star 4-Cost unit.
But unexpectedly... Karin ended up with a 3-Star Kassadin, directly blocking the 2-cost cards!
Shen Mo was shocked at the time!
He had heard of blocking 4-cost or 5-cost cards, but it was his first time seeing someone block 2-cost cards!
At that time, Karin left a deep impression on him; this girl's luck is truly good!
Of course, that was precisely why.
Later, when Shen Mo had the opportunity to help other countries, the first person he thought of was Karin!
The third time playing against India again.
Although Karin hadn't rolled Jinx for a while, making Shen Mo doubt his judgment.
But the subsequent Three-Star Wukong slapped him in the face.
This girl's luck was still that good!
It's just that the cards she targeted seemed different each time!
...
One thing after another flashed through his mind, and Shen Mo suddenly realized. Looking at the 7 Briars on Karin's field now, he had a very strong feeling.
Karin must have a hidden talent!
Just like Long Chen back then!
A natural-born trait!
And it's a luck-based one!
"What kind of blessed life is this..."
Shen Mo felt a bit envious.
He was no longer the person he used to be; he had a deep understanding of the rules of the Gods Arena.
For example, traits.
They can basically be divided into several categories: item-based, support-based, and special-based. Item-based is very simple, like obtaining a golden spatula or equipment; they all belong to this category.
Support-based belongs to combat power bonuses. For example, the 'Silver-tier · Magic Break' and 'Silver-tier · Armor Shred' that Shen Mo saw while browsing the store just now belong to this category.
Once used, it can allow the pieces on the field to gain a few seconds of overall armor shred effect.
Briefly affecting the combat power value of key matches, somewhat similar to the Staff effect of S12!
This type of trait has a characteristic: the upper limit is very high, but the lower limit is also very low. The powerful ones are truly strong, and the weak ones are truly trash. Some trashy Silver-tier traits belong to this category.
As for the final special category.
It belongs to very rare traits. For example, the luck that Karin is showing now is heaven-defying.
Including the 'Intuition' that Long Chen gave him, strictly speaking, it is a combination of support and special categories! It is also incredibly powerful, and some of the abilities of Intuition have a kind of 'conceptual' strength!
It's very unreasonable!
And the [Gold-tier · Predator] that Shen Mo synthesized just now.
It is another relatively heaven-defying category among the special ones: coin bonus!
Unlike 'luck-based' or 'conceptual' types which are somewhat illusory, coin bonuses are solid and shameless. After all, there are only so many coins in golden spatula. If you have 30 more coins than others after a match, that advantage will be magnified geometrically at every stage!
Collecting his thoughts.
Shen Mo took a deep breath and muttered to himself: "It seems that in the future, I need to pay more attention to Karin!"
