Chapter 617: A fateful showdown

Views:

"Your Highness Hegel," the Lich King had already learned the name of the dark elemental king from the contract, and spread his hands, "You choose first, the first game is racing to win? Wonder war? Death game? By the way, Pu Lin Si, later you will introduce the rules to the nearby guests, especially that 'Agulie', anyway, after the game starts, the two sides on this table cannot hear the sound outside the game."

"Obey, Your Highness the Lich King." Prince saluted deeply, but floated in front of Chen Rui and the others, and returned to that haughty posture.

"Hmph!" Hegel glanced at Chen Rui, "In the first match, let's start with the simplest race to win, a three-set tiebreaker."

"Okay, let's start."

As soon as the voice fell, the light of the entire card table flickered, the death scythe waved, and the cards flew up one by one, and turned over on the table. Chen Rui could see clearly that various graphics were drawn on these cards, and there were There are dozens of human and demon men and women in the crown, as well as generals in armor, as well as the sun, moon, and scepter.

Prince on the side introduced that in the race for victory, there are a total of sixty-four cards, which are divided into main cards and secondary cards. The main cards have two camps of order and chaos. The main cards of order include the golden emperor and the white queen. There are five main cards of chaos, including the Lord of Darkness, the Phantom Concubine, the Evil Magician, the Demon Fighter, and the Demon Slave. There are four of each of these ten main cards.

The deck includes the sun, scepter, cross sword, etc. corresponding to order, the moon, poison dagger, cloak, etc. corresponding to chaos, and neutral stars, gems, wood, ore, and crystal lamp, each of which is one.

The rule of the race to win is to draw five main cards and one secondary card within ten seconds, and the one with the largest card type wins.

Order or Chaos is the largest set of five cards, such as the emperor, queen, knight, swordsman and peasant; the second is the same four cards in the same camp, such as four emperors plus a peasant or four peasants plus a king, there is no difference in size points; the third is three cards of the same camp plus two identical cards, such as three knights plus two swordsmen; and then two pairs of the same camp or three identical cards...

The lowest is mixed alignment, with no pairs and no straights.

According to Chen Rui, this is somewhat similar to Texas Hold'em on Earth, such as straight flush, four of a kind, flush, straight, etc., but the rules are slightly different, but then the rules of the second card explained by Prince are very novel. In the quick win, the role of the secondary card is crucial. The card type of the main card must correspond to the secondary card of the corresponding faction to be established, otherwise it will be invalid and lose directly.

For example, Chen Rui has now drawn the main card with the highest "straight flush" order, which is a set of emperor, queen, knight, swordsman and farmer. At this time, the second card must draw the sun, scepter and cross sword, etc. , the straight flush is valid; if the chaotic cards such as the moon and the poisonous dagger are drawn, then the straight flush is invalid, even if the opponent draws the smallest miscellaneous card, he will win.

At this time, if the deck of cards drawn by Chen Rui is neutral, it will also be in the city, but something more unpredictable will happen, that is, the opponent draws each other's cards to determine the final value. The "straight flush" just now Might turn into the tiniest hodgepodge.

There is no such restriction for the mixed camp card type, but this kind of card is also the smallest grade.

After checking the cards, the game began. The sixty-two cards were turned back, and the cards began to be automatically mixed and shuffled at a super-high speed. Even Chen Rui's eyes could not keep up with that speed.

What Prince said is indeed true. This kind of magic card game is not simple. In addition to skills, it also requires strong spiritual power as a backing. In the stage of shuffling the cards alone, a considerable amount of mental power must be expended to judge. The more accurate the judgment, the smaller the error and the higher the winning rate. Except that both sides have selected the same card, then in this fleeting time, It will also use mental power to launch high-speed and fierce competition.

Of course, the luck factor is equally important.

The sixty-two cards were spread out again, and the pattern on the back of some cards began to have a star, which could not be noticed unless you looked carefully. The cards with stars represent the secondary cards, and the rest are the main cards. It didn't appear before the shuffle.

Soon, several cards began to move quickly and appeared on the table of the two. After a few blinks, the remaining cards in the center of the table were burned and disappeared, leaving only the six cards chosen by each side in front of them.

Glorios' voice sounded: "His Royal Highness Hegel, you are a guest, and you will play the cards first."

According to the rules, the first thing the two sides want to open is the main card, and the last is the secondary card. With a thought in Hegel's mind, the five cards have been turned over, three cards of the Dark King, one Phantom Concubine, one Evil Magician, A magic slave, a flush three pair, belongs to the big card type.

"Hey, it seems that my luck is a little worse than His Royal Highness." Glorios turned over his cards, which were also from the chaotic camp. There were two cards of "Demon Fighter", two cards of "Demon Slave", and one card. "King of Darkness," two pair suited, was about a stop behind Hegel's.

Next, turn over the deck of cards, one is "Moon" and the other is "Cloak". Both card types are valid. Hegel won the first round. The card table began to emit golden light. The cards of both sides disappeared, and the god of death A new deck of cards appeared again in the center.

"His Royal Highness Hegel's strength is really extraordinary. Just now, His Royal Highness took the lead, otherwise it might be a draw. But... In this way, the game will become more and more interesting. Let's start the second round." Lorios grinned, and the smiling face of the skeleton made people feel hair-raising.

Glorios' cards in the second game are two kings, one queen, one knight, and one peasant. A pair of the same suit. Hegel's cards are two magic concubines, one mage, two magic slaves, and two pair of suits. The cards are bigger than Glorios's. However, when he opened the deck, Hegel's eyes The red light flashed suddenly, and it turned out that his secondary card turned out to be a "sun" of order, which was equivalent to being scrapped, while Glorios' secondary card was the scepter of order, and the card type was valid.

"Hmph!" Hegel snorted coldly. He was strongly disturbed by Glorios' mental power when he was judging just now. As a result, he missed a move, made a mistake, and drew a fatal deck.

The Lich King let out a strange laugh: "Currently one win and one loss, it's just a tie, and the most exciting final game will come next."

The third game started. After shuffling the cards, many cards on the table became blurred. In Chen Rui's concentrated eyes, this blurred feeling was actually caused by the high-speed competition between the two sides. Ten seconds The time passed quickly, and the excess cards were automatically burned, and everyone's attention fell on the twelve cards of Hegel and Glorios.

"Please open the cards first, Your Highness Hegel."

The five main cards in front of Hegel were turned over, and they were king, queen, knight, swordsman, farmer, and a set of cards from the order camp, which is the biggest straight flush. As long as the second card is also an order card, then unless the lich The king's final valid card is also a straight flush, otherwise this game will undoubtedly win, at least it will be invincible.

Glorios seemed to be pondering, if there was flesh on that skeleton face, he would have frowned tightly, and then the Lich King turned over his cards.

A dark king, two mages, two demon slaves, and two pair of suits are not small cards, but they pale in comparison to the "straight flush".

Next came the most critical deck. Hegel showed a proud smile. While everyone was almost suffocating, the deck slowly opened up, a "cross sword"!

The dark elementalists cheered, the cards are valid! The King has won!

"As the king of dark elements, it's an ironic victory that he actually chose the deck of order," the Lich King said with a strange laugh: "It's just that the real victory depends on the decision of the final trump card." revealed."

Chen Rui had a bad feeling. He had watched too many movies about the king of gamblers. In the final battle, it seemed that the first to reveal the cards was basically the loser...

Hegel suddenly thought of something, and the red light in his pupils shrank suddenly, and he saw the Lich King's deck - "Stars".

Neutral deck!

Then, next, the two sides will draw a card from the other side at the same time. With the current cards, the Lich King is a card of chaos, and the King of Dark Elements is a card of order. It is the smallest mixed card type, and the Lich King has at least one pair of cards. After all, Hegel lost!

The cheers around stopped abruptly, and the Lich King laughed sinisterly: "Your Highness did not make the same mistake last time, repelled my mental interference, not only grabbed the largest card type, but also accurately I got the corresponding deck. It's a pity, the world is unpredictable, and I won this race."

The red light in Hegel's eyes became brighter, and gradually stabilized: "It's a good method, but the real winner is the one who laughs last. Let's start the second battle immediately, the spectacle war."

Wonder War is another way to play magic cards. Each side has a 50-story wonder building to be built. Playing cards can build your own building or demolish the opponent's building. There are a total of 100 floors of wonders.

The criterion for judging the outcome is which side's wonders are built or destroyed first. If there is no winner within half an hour, the side with the highest number of wonders will be the winner.

The number of cards is not limited to sixty-two. After a set is drawn, the cards will be counted again until the end.

In this way of playing, each player draws five cards at a time, and both parties draw again after playing a round. No matter whether the cards are played or not, they always keep five cards in their hands. However, the functions of the main card and the secondary card have changed. The main role of the main card is to kill the opponent. The single emperor is the largest, and then there are pairs and three of a kind. The more cards, the greater the damage. The most special one is the four, which can be turned into an overwhelming "bomb", but this "bomb" is a bit special, it will not only blow up the opponent's four-story building, but also destroy your own two-story building, so use it with caution.

The role of the second card is to build. The second card of the same camp can add two layers to one's own building, one layer to a different camp, and one layer to both sides of the neutral camp. The effects of the sun, moon, and stars will also be doubled. .

This game will be decided in one game. Since Hegel has already lost a game before, if he loses this game again, he will be completely defeated, so the dark elemental king has played 12 points.

Hegel chose the spectacle of chaos. When using cards from this faction to attack and win, double damage will occur. The king of dark elements chose the spectacle of order, and two three-dimensional buildings suddenly appeared on the card table, facing each other far away. One emits a faint black mist, and the other shimmers with golden light. There are workers building it below, and there is a number "50" beside it, which looks very vivid.

The stacked cards began to be automatically distributed to Hegel and Glorios, and stopped after five cards were drawn. Glorios threw out a pair of "demon fighters", and the central card table flashed with light, and suddenly two huge demon fighters appeared, brandishing flails, roaring and approaching Hegel's spectacle step by step.

Hegel threw out the cards in his hand, and two brilliant knight commanders wearing full body armor and holding knight spears appeared on the "battlefield", urging the silver armored horses under them, and rushed towards the demon fighter.

Under the powerful charge of the knight commander, the demon fighter was shattered, and the phantom of the charge hit Glorios's spectacle. The spectacle trembled, and it was reduced by four levels under the effect of a pair of cards and different camps. , becomes "46".

The next thing Hegel played was a card. A golden scepter inlaid with rubies stood on top of his own spectacle, emitting a strong white light. The speed of construction immediately accelerated, adding a layer, and then the scepter disappeared. Since the "scepter" is a second card of order, one's own chaotic spectacle can only be increased by one layer. After Hegel played the largest single card "Demon King", Glorios chose to give up, and the spectacle changed. It became 51 to 45.

There is only one card left in Hegel's hand. If he is restrained by the opponent, his own spectacle will be reduced, so the dark elemental king did not play any more cards. When the two sides gave up, they began to draw cards again. Hegel drew four cards, Glorios drew two cards, and both sides still had five cards in their hands. A new round of competition began.

The sacred and majestic golden emperor, the violent and brave dark king, the dignified and beautiful silver queen, the charming phantom concubine, the fair and strict commander of the glorious knight, the weird and changeable evil magician... The pictures on these cards are all gorgeous The vivid posture was displayed in front of everyone, and the fight began. Both the image and the fighting effect were amazing, but behind this dazzling was a cruel life-and-death game.

Under the fierce attack and defense, the wonder buildings of both sides are constantly changing, and the attacks of both sides are very sharp. Sometimes they are about to smash the opponent's wonders, but they are added by several consecutive decks, and their own wonders are also in jeopardy. .

You come and go, the battle has entered the most exciting stage, Hegel's spectacle has only the last three floors, and Glorios has five floors. Both sides had three cards in each hand, and Glorios played a pair of "evil magicians". Hegel couldn't deal with it and chose to skip it, leaving only the last layer of the spectacle.

Glorios played the only single card "Glorious Knight Commander", trying to deal a fatal blow to Hegel. At the critical moment, Hegel played a card of Dark Lord, and instead Glorios The miracle was cut to the fourth floor, and he also won an important first move in the next round.

In the next round of card drawing, Hegel played three "Phantom Concubine" cards that determine the outcome. Triple the cards plus double the faction, equal to six layers of damage, and finally destroyed Glory in one fell swoop. Aussie's four-tiered miracle achieved a decisive victory.

Glorios won the first "race to victory" and Hegel won the second "War of Spectacles", which means that the two sides have returned to the same starting line. Let's look at the most critical third game, the death game.
