My Cards are Infinitely Refreshed

61: Challenge the three-star monster“Did he not look at the map?”

“He can’t possibly be trying to challenge a Three-Star Demon, can he?”

The two Recruitment Officers felt that Shi Li’s actions were irrational.

If he encountered any trouble, he would immediately lose his tryout qualification.

However, just as the drone footage captured the demon’s figure, Shi Li finally stopped advancing.

“It’s not too late to realize it now.”

The male Recruitment Officer breathed a sigh of relief, secretly glancing at Hu Lan.

After all, this was a key observation target personally designated by Dean Hu; if he were recklessly eliminated at the very beginning, where would her face be?

But Hu Lan stood with her arms crossed, her face devoid of any expression.

The female Recruitment Officer, meanwhile, silently adjusted the audio to Shi Li’s channel.

And so, in the next second, they clearly heard Shi Li’s words.

“A LV1 Three-Star Watermelon Earthworm, Chasing Wind type.

High attack, low health, skilled in Movement, and its Movement also enjoys additional effects.”

Shi Li recited the relevant information about the demon in front of him.

“It seems he is very familiar with the Demon Compendium.”

“If he recognizes it, then he should know it’s not easy to deal with, right?”

Just as the two Recruitment Officers thought Shi Li should retreat in the face of difficulty…

Shi Li actually stepped on the accelerator and rushed forward!

“Hmm?”

Even Hu Lan couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows this time.

Logically speaking, this type of high-attack demon is one of the types most disliked by common card players.

Because their superior output capabilities often allow them to consistently instantly kill 1 target card in the first few rounds of a match.

For example, right now, the Watermelon Earthworm has 5 cards, while Shi Li, a Gold 4, only has 4 cards.

If it’s purely a one-for-one fight, it’s impossible to win against the opponent.

Buzz…

At this moment, the card game barrier in the screen had already fallen.

The demon projection in the Ace position on the opposite side appeared several sizes larger.

It had a shell-like skin with watermelon rind patterns, and tiny tentacles grew along both sides of its long body; overall, it looked like a giant earthworm.

Watermelon Earthworm

Chasing Wind, Attack 60, 150/150, 0/30

Healing - Passive: Watermelon Earthworm gains 30 Healing (T5) after moving.

Familiar Soil - Passive: Watermelon Earthworm’s Movement effect does not affect other actions.

Burrowing - 20 Energy: Watermelon Earthworm performs 1 Movement (T3).

The other 4 earthworm cards had Two-Star stats, all with 40 Attack and 80 Health, and did not have the ‘Familiar Soil’ Characteristic.

The combined attack power of these 5 demons reached a terrifying 220 points.

Even a regular Character Card, if it performed Defense, would be instantly killed.

But precisely because he recognized the card face of this demon, Shi Li dared to challenge it.

Putting everything else aside, playing 1 Jumping Guardian…

The problem would be solved instantly!

As for what came after, it wasn’t important.

The Jumping Guardian is specifically designed to counter high-attack demons like the Watermelon Earthworm!

There are simply too many things that can be done by enduring for 3 rounds.

First, the opponent’s single-column formation is 3+1, with the Three-Star big card at the back.

The remaining 1 small earthworm is isolated in another column.

What does this mean? It means Shi Li can attack both the left and right columns simultaneously, i.e., two targets.

Furthermore, given the opponent’s relatively low health, his side can completely achieve instantly killing 2 targets in the left and right columns in 1 round.

In 3 rounds, Shi Li would only lose 1 Jumping Guardian.

And the opponent’s demons would lose 4 cards, leaving only that Three-Star big card.

3V1, he wouldn’t even know how to lose.

Jump!

With the deck arranged, the Jumping Guardian, revealed first, majestically leaped out.

“Wait a minute, why doesn’t this match the data?”

“If I remember correctly, his Characteristic card isn’t this one!”

The two Recruitment Officers exchanged glances, immediately seeing surprise in each other’s eyes.

A new Characteristic Unique Character Card!

“A good card.”

Hu Lan, meanwhile, had already begun to scrutinize the Jumping Guardian’s card face.

No wonder he dared to challenge a LV1 Three-Star Demon with just Gold 4; so he had this trick up his sleeve.

“Dean Hu, did you know about this situation all along?”

The male Recruitment Officer turned to ask.

After all, possessing 2 Characteristic Unique Character Cards would greatly elevate Shi Li’s evaluation in their minds.

It should be noted that before this, among the third-year high school students in Jiangnan Province this year, only Ouyang Huan was suspected of having 2 Characteristic cards, and that was just a suspicion.

“Continue to observe him.”

Facing the question, Hu Lan was noncommittal.

Gold 4, 2 Characteristic cards.

He is very strong, but…

“I’ll contact Principal Su later and ask him to keep a close eye on him.”

She muttered to herself silently.

She had seen many geniuses and had extensive experience and insights in nurturing talent.

Sometimes, having too many Unique Character Cards, especially Characteristic Unique Character Cards, isn’t necessarily a good thing.

Because the difficulty of cultivating such cards and the resources poured into them often far exceed those of ordinary cards.

Moreover, some crucial resources needed in the mid-to-late stages cannot be bought with just money.

Hu Lan believed that having 2 Characteristic cards too early could only be said to have both pros and cons.

Especially in Shi Li’s situation, where he hadn’t achieved card resonance.

His channels for acquiring resources were naturally fewer than those of other card players.

So, in her opinion, merely based on this, wanting to get an exceptional quota from her was still slightly insufficient.

Not long after, Shi Li finally won the card game.

“It was harder than I imagined.”

Although it ended 3V1, the process was not so smooth.

Because in Cube Cards, a Character Card’s attack is targeted damage.

That is, the attack will be transmitted within the same column; if the card in front is gone, the attack will extend to the card behind it.

And Movement is not only a means of displacement but also a means of evading attacks.

With a T3 priority, it would take effect before the T4 attack.

To give a specific example from the recent game, when Shi Li attacked the Watermelon Earthworm in column A, the Watermelon Earthworm used Movement this round and jumped to column B.

Then his attack would miss.

The key is that this guy’s Movement has low energy consumption and high frequency, and after moving, he can still attack and heal.

His flexibility gave Shi Li a headache.

Fortunately, he had the Crow Warrior in play; its T2 Stun hard crowd control was the bane of T3 Movement.

So after the battle, he continued to ride his beloved small motorcycle and began his hunting journey.

During the process, he encountered many demons, both Two-Star and Three-Star.

Shi Li chose to bypass all the Three-Star Demons he didn’t recognize or recognized but couldn’t defeat.

With the help of his vehicle, he successfully hunted a total of 5 Three-Star Demons and a large number of Two-Star Demons throughout the day.

This caused Shi Li’s score to continuously climb.
