In order to explain to the watcher why Nolan's spellcasters and Crusaders are willing to come to this tavern, and one sitting is likely to be a secret all day.
Joshua had two hearthstone battles with her directly in his study.
"The Crusaders came to this tavern just to... play this card game?"
Peste's fingertips crossed the cards in her hand. Her deck was provided by Joshua. Due to the similarity of her profession and temperament, Pester chose the stalker Valeera as her battle deck.
"That's right."
With a wave of Qiao Xiu's hand, a mage's professional card Fireball appeared in Qiao Xiu's hand.
For nearly two months, Qiao Xiu made some small changes to the arcade of Hearthstone, that is, the phantom formed by the cards in the hand can be directly held in the hand.
When you need to use that card, just click it, and Joshua touches the "Fireball" card. The card turns into fragments composed of inscriptions, and the logo of the designated target appears on the table below.
What Joshua chose was the stalker Valeera who had only 6 points of blood left.
The fireball technique was directly released by the heroic mage Jaina controlled by Joshua, and the stalker Valeera was directly shattered into pieces after being hit by the fireball technique.
"The executioner of the church would be so keen to play this game."
Maybe it was the two consecutive defeats that made Pest look a little discouraged, or the kind of defeat that was abused by Joshua, which made her game experience very poor.
She had never been exposed to "video games" before, nor did she have the concept.
For her, the only entertainment she had was to be with Her Royal Highness Cecily, whom she respected, or to hunt down those desperate prey and watch them gradually sink into despair.
"Want another round?"
Joshua didn't answer the monitor's question, just clicked the button to continue the battle, quietly waiting for the monitor lady to agree.
She also seems to belong to the type of winning and unwilling to admit defeat. In Pest's opinion, her two previous defeats were due to her unfamiliarity with the game.
But after two rounds of accumulated experience, she basically understood the rules of this simple game.
"Come again."
Although Pest said that "there is no way to understand the fun of this kind of game", she was not reconciled to her defeat by Joshua, at least one game to clear the shame of being "ravaged" by Joshua's mage before. !
"Please."
In this way, Joshua and Pest started the third game, this Miss Watcher can be considered to have game talent.
Even with a little resistance, she is just a beginner.
Oops…
In the tenth round, Joshua drew the card again and successfully drew a Pyroblast that could deal ten points of damage, while the stalker Valeera controlled by Pester had only ten points of health left. .
In this game, Joshua originally planned to let Pest win the next game, so as to make the game experience of this Miss Watcher a little better, so as not to be abused to the point of losing confidence.
But Qiao Xiu still underestimated her luck today. Three consecutive rounds were not smooth at all. If Qiao Xiu hadn't released the water in this round, she would have died in the fifth round.
"His Royal Highness Joshua, anyone's mercy is humiliating to me."
The blood volume of "Stalker Valeera" controlled by Pester gradually decreased and was on the verge of death, which made her feel nervous.
She hasn't felt this way for a long time. Since the last round, she has been staring at every draw of Joshua.
With the current weak HP of "Stalker Valeera", as long as Joshua draws a card that can deal damage, she will declare defeat in this round.
In the tenth round of the draw, when she looked at Joshua with her gaze hidden behind the mask, Pester caught a hint of hesitation in Joshua's eyes.
It was obvious that Joshua had drawn the card that could deal fatal damage, but Joshua didn't seem to intend to use it, just to let her win the game.
But Pest never wanted to accept the victory that came with the handout of others.
"Really? So sorry."
His thoughts were seen through by the watcher, and Joshua stopped putting down the water, and directly threw a Pyroblast that could cause ten points of damage on the face of the hero controlled by Peste.
When Pester ushered in her third defeat, Joshua saw her shoulders trembling slightly, probably because of her unwillingness after losing.
"Please... another round."
Pest's voice sounded calm, and she hid her inner thoughts well.
"Unfortunately, I have no time to delay any longer, Miss Watcher."
Joshua pointed to the magic clock hanging on the wall behind him.
Pest, who had lived in the human world for a while, certainly understood human time.
During the Hearthstone showdown with Joshua, Pest always thought that only ten minutes had passed, but the clock on the wall told Pest that an entire hour had passed.
"I can understand the appeal of this pub."
Pest didn't think Hearthstone was a fun game, but the sense of accomplishment she got from beating someone with it was something she wanted more.
It's like when she hunts, what she enjoys is not killing the prey, but enjoying something else, such as the scream of the prey.
"But this is no reason for the Church to accept us, Your Highness Joshua... You are still in danger."
"I know, but I don't plan to go back in the near future, and I have no intention of giving up this tavern."
Joshua gave Pest a letter he had just written.
"Give this letter to my sister, but I hope you can stay in the tavern for a while before leaving. I still have two things that I hope you can bring back to my sister, so that you have a better chance of persuading her. "
"… "
Pest accepted this letter from Joshua, and if she took this letter back, it would be tantamount to declaring her mission a failure.
However, the undead wandering in the entire study made Pest dare not easily use coercive means to bring the demon prince back to the demon world.
And this letter from Qiao Xiu is equivalent to an expulsion order. Usually Qiao Xiu doesn't mind spending time on Hearthstone, but Prouker has been waiting by the side for too long.
"As ordered."
Pest put away the letter and walked to the door of the study.
"Aren't you going to take your deck with you? Some of the cards in it are not easy to get." The deck that Joshua gave Pester to try was not a novice card box, but there were several in it. A legendary card.
With this reminder from Joshua, Pesto returned from the door, picked up the pure black original spar, and left Joshua's study without a word.
