Chapter 17: Mortal Bone Fight
Xue Lang walked on the busy streets, looking at the pedestrians around him, the colorful neon lights, and the beautiful young lady dressed in cool clothes (crossed out), and couldn't help but be shocked for a while.
Wow, this detail is too realistic and in place, right? Is this really a card game?
An unscrupulous consortium that thinks about selling cards all day would be willing to spend a lot of money to do such a conscientious game? I'm afraid I didn't cross over, right?
He suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly reached out nervously to touch the ......
...... Whew, it's okay, it's okay, the tools are still there.
I just don't know how the function is, whether there are any restricted gameplay items in the game and so on.
However, all the way from outside the city, he didn't seem to see any other players.
This is not surprising. It is said that the total number of places in the internal test is less than 1,000 people, and it is simply a needle in a haystack in such a large city thrown by such a small number of people, and it is normal to not meet them.
The beta test places are randomly selected from players in many countries around the world, and a total of less than 1,000 people are selected under such a huge base.
However, although the players come from all over the world, language is not an issue.
This is a problem that has been solved long ago since the development of stealth online games, where players can choose their own familiar language and interface to play. Everything players come into contact with during the game will be translated into familiar words, and communication and dialogue will be handled by the game's built-in translation system, so there are no barriers.
In addition, it is quite easy for players to judge each other's identity. One is that players have IDs on their heads, and theoretically only players can see each other's IDs.
The second is that the players walk differently than normal people. It's as if there's hot lava beneath the floor in the game, and players like to jump around a few steps, and occasionally even roll in place.
Legend has it that this inexplicable tradition was left over from before the spread of stealth technology. Back in the day, gamers relied on keyboard and mouse devices to play games, and those of those days were especially fond of the "jump" and "roll" commands.
Later, although the infiltration technology became widespread and everyone no longer used keyboard and mouse to play games, this "fine tradition" was still passed down from generation to generation of players like feelings.
Xue Lang wandered around the city streets with a new face on his face, looking around like a countryman entering the city, as if he felt new to everything he saw.
For a moment he even forgot that he was playing a card game...... Until he wandered aimlessly to a dueling hall in the center of the city.
At this time, Xue Lang suddenly realized - wait, I seem to have come to play cards?
"The duelist over there."
Xue Lang, who had just walked into the door with a bewildered face, followed the prestige, and at a glance saw a man with a square face and a strong physique, slowly walking towards this side.
"A new face I haven't seen in the museum, have you only recently come to this area?" The man asked.
Is it a plot?
Xue Lang was puzzled, and nodded at the same time: "Yes." β
"Do you want a duel, then?"
"Okay!"
As a player, there is certainly no reason to refuse an NPC's challenge. He speculated that it might be part of the game's beginner's tutorial.
The two sides soon came to the open field and stood up to each other in the designated position.
"Duel!" x2
It wasn't until the dueling wheel unfolded and five starting cards were drawn from the deck that Snow Wave suddenly realized a shocking fact-
- He forgot to make sure he had any cards in his starting deck.
When he created the number, the system let him choose the initial deck, but he roughly glanced at it and felt that each set was about the same, so he chose a set and started the game directly, and he forgot to check it until now.
Now let's see what he got in the first five cards......
Green worms, thunder eels, earth warriors, angry sea kings, mountain fighters......
Aren't all mortal bones in this special meow!?
It's all mortal bones, and there is no one with an attack power of more than 1,000 for Mao?
The strongest monster in his hand seems to be the "Angry Sea King", which is also a tabula rasa without any special effects, and the card description is "The Great Sea King, evoking a never-ending tsunami to engulf the enemy".
Xue Lang wanted to complain at that time - who do you β’ want to devour a miscellaneous fish monster with an attack power of only 800?
As the great king of the sea, he doesn't even have the effect of a monster that "talks to the fish", but it's too vegetable, right?
In other words, this broken deck won't even have a monster with an attack power of more than 1,000......
No, no, it must have been his face too black this round...... That's right, for sure.
Now let the opposite side see the bond between the real duelist and the deck!
"Attack me first, I'll take it, draw cards!"
Adhering to the principle of vigorously producing miracles, Xue Lang used the greatest strength of his life to draw his miracle sixth card from the deck...... And then people are stupid.
Telekinesis kappa, 400 attack power, 1000 garrison power. Card description: A kappa who can use a variety of superpowers to avoid attacks.
Snow Wave: "......"
Forget it, this one is given. Anyway, the novice is the first one, and the right is to pay the tuition.
"I'm on guard to summon the telekinetic kappa, and the round is over."
γNian Li Kappa, garrison power 1000γ
Xue Lang is already too lazy to struggle. He just wanted the NPC on the other side to quickly knock him down so he could see what was going on with his starting deck.
"It's my turn, gacha!"
The other side glanced at the cards in his hand, and actually showed a very tangled expression - Xue Lang couldn't help but wonder what was there to worry about with a mortal bone with a garrison of 1000 on his side.
Then I saw a card played on the opposite side: "...... I summon a fighting warrior - Artemit, attack indicated! β
[Fighting Fighter - Artemit, Attack Power 700]
Then the other party gritted his teeth as if he was very unwilling: "Hey, the attack power of the fighting fighter is not as high as the telekinetic kappa, and my round is over." β
Xue Lang: "? β
Big brother, are you teasing me?
You can't even solve a whiteboard with a garrison of 1000?
"My turn," Xue Lang said, "then I summon the Angry Sea King!" β
[Angry Sea King, Attack 800]
"Come on, Angry Sea King's attack! Kill! β
The angry Sea King roared and rushed forward, lifting the harpoon in his hand without saying a word...... Oh no, it's an artifact trident, and a single blow buries the opposing fighting fighters under the halberd.
"Woo!" The NPC duelist raised his hand to protect the front door.
Passerby, LP 4000 βLP 3900γ
Xue Lang suddenly realized that maybe this one could still be beaten.
Because the card on the opposite side ...... It's not even better than yourself!
......
After a full twenty rounds of dragon battles, the battle between the two sides has officially entered the white-hot stage! The whole duel situation is extremely thrilling, and the duelists on both sides are killing fiercely, biting each other's LPs without letting go......
In the end, it was Xue Lang's superior skills and thrillingly won the duel.
(Actually, I finally drew a great white shark with an attack power of 1600, and then I couldn't solve it on the other side...... οΌ
At the end of the duel, Xue Lang wiped his sweat, only to feel that this kind of duel between mortals and bones could be fought so fiercely, as if it was really the first time in his life......
He then took a short turn around the dueling hall and noticed that most of the duelists here seemed to be similar.
The NPCs play cards and seem to just keep slapping the tabula rasa monster up and slashing.,The deck is completely a deck.,There's no construction at all.,There's no combo at all.,Even magic trap cards don't seem to be seen much.γ
Those strong passers-by are just some high-attack or high-star monsters, and they can't help but think after watching the battle for a while-
- If I have an electronic dragon in my hand......
Soon he noticed that a large group of people had gathered in the battle zone not far away, and the inner and outer three floors blocked the field.
What's going on? Is it a competition?
Xue Lang quickly approached and casually asked a passer-by in the crowd: "That, may I ask what the situation is here?" β
The man also explained enthusiastically: "Tonight, someone is challenging the new Duel King of this Duel Hall!" It's already started fighting! β
The Duel King?
Xue Lang's eyes lit up.
Could it be the protagonist Muto game?
He didn't realize that he had automatically ignored the prefix "This Duel Hall".
Xue Lang desperately squeezed in, and barely saw the duelists fighting between the two sides through the cracks.
On the left side of the field is a shirtless, dark-skinned muscular man (why do you have to strip when playing cards). However, this one has a dragon face and can be ignored directly.
As for the duelist standing on the right, Xue Lang's first reaction was-
-, so handsome!
He can clearly see that this person's painting style is different from other NPCs at first glance.,At first glance, it's the object that the artist has focused on.,There's a high probability that he's an important character in the game.γ
Could it be an important plot NPC?
"Fight!" The young duelist on the right spoke, shouting loudly, "Elemental Hero, Nova Lord, attack directly!" β
Xue Lang almost fell on the spot without being startled.
He just said elemental...... What the!?
