Chapter 1177: The gap in acting
Translator: 549690339
What Snow activated was his second card,[hiltless sword]. When this card is equipped on a monster, it can increase its attack by 1000 points, but its controller will lose 300 lplps at the beginning of each round.
Before this, in Snow’s own round, he could have used this card. As long as he covered this card in the main stage, he could equip it on the lamp monster during the battle stage and knock out brother Jue by 1000 more points.
However, he did not use it …
And just now, when Feng bujue used Sakamoto-kun to attack the table lamp monster, snow could have used this card to deal with it.
But … He was still useless.!!
This was because he knew very well that the card that posed the greatest threat to him was the [sword trickster]. The potential of this card was terrifying. Snow would rather miss the 1000-point kill or give up the chance to kill a monster to keep the hiltless sword. He would use it when he could actually eliminate the sword trickster.
If he had used this card in order to counter-kill the opponent’s [Sakamoto-kun] or to give his opponent more health, he would have fallen into an awkward situation. When the sword trickster attacked him, he would have a [table lamp monster] with an attack power of 2500 standing on the field.
In this situation,[demon’s awareness] became a useless trump card. When activated, the summoned monster’s attack might not be as high as the monster on the field; If he didn’t activate it, this card would be useless. If the [table lamp monster] was killed later, he wouldn’t be able to activate it even if he wanted to.
Secondly, in that kind of situation, Feng bujue had the upper hand.
He could use the [sword trickster] to attack the [table lamp monster] equipped with the [hiltless sword]… There was a two-thirds chance of winning.
He could also choose not to attack and sell another round of health. This way … In the next round, unless snow brought another monster with 4000 attack to kill Feng bujue, as long as snow summoned a monster, the sword trickster’s die count would increase by one. In theory, that would mean an increase of six thousand attack.
Try to imagine, in the round after brother Jue’s health was depleted, if he was lucky enough to roll two sixes during the battle and dealt 12000 damage to the table lamp monster (monsters that had been attacked during the battle could not be changed to defense in the secondary stage), the 9500 points difference would be deducted from Snow’s AP, and the result would be … A one-hit kill.
Although … The probability of that happening was very small, it was not zero. Taking a step back, even if he did not roll a 12, taking the average value, he would have an attack Power of Six to seven thousand. Furthermore, Feng bujue would also draw a card in the next round, so who knew what other cards he had in his deck?
Snow’s way of thinking and style when playing card games was based on “absolutely rational thinking.” Even if his luck had always been good, he would not take unnecessary risks. He would try to avoid and avoid those choices where there was a one-third chance of winning and a two-third chance of escaping after one move.
His philosophy was to fight steadily and gradually … To establish an advantage in the field, in health, and in cacha. He would use the “difference in strength” to gradually make the opponent step into despair and eventually lose.
Therefore, after multiple deductions, snow chose to endure and wait … Until he was certain that he could achieve his goal, he then activated [hiltless sword].
“Hehe … What a pity …” As snow spoke, a giant sword that was covered in blades appeared in the hands of the eight-armed Naga. The Naga slashed the sword trickster in half and turned it into a burst of white light.”If you roll a 4,5, and 6, then I can’t do anything.”
“Hmph … Did he wait for this moment to activate it?” Feng bujue mumbled.
“Of course,” Snow replied,”I’m waiting for your ‘attack declaration’ to be completed and for the deceiver ‘s’ attack power random value ‘to be generated. Then, I’ll activate this equipment trap depending on the situation … This way, I can be sure that the troublesome monster will be eliminated.”

As the two of them were talking, with the death of [sword trickster], another die appeared in the air. After a series of beeps, it was set at the number 3.
Then, a ray of white light shot out from the die and landed on Feng bujue.
This scene was caused by the negative effect of [sword trickster] ‘s death, which was “rolling a die and causing the controller to lose the corresponding lops”; As for 3, it represented … A whole 3000 points.
Including the difference in attack points from the battle with the eight-armed Naga, Feng bujue had not only lost one monster but also lost 3200 HP. It was a heavy loss.
“Hehe … It’s still a 3? I thought it would be a 6 or something.” Seeing this, snow smiled and said,”fortunately … That’s enough.” A smug look appeared in his eyes.”You only have 3300 points of HP left, and the [Sakamoto-kun] on your field is a humanoid creature. Under the influence of the [oxygen-deficient zone]… He can’t be your barrier. In other words … When it’s my turn, as long as I can draw a monster Card and combine it with the [eight-armed Naga] that has 3200 attack power, I can send you on your way. ” He spread his hands, shook his head, and sighed hypocritically.”Sigh … It seems that I’m going to win in only two rounds. However … Against a layman, this is an expected ending. ”
Snow put on a victorious posture, and his sarcastic remarks were endless and reasonable.
However …
“You’re done?” Feng bujue’s face did not show any sign of losing. His eyes were still determined.”Then … I will continue …” He paused for half a second, and a smile appeared on his lips.”My battle stage … Is not over yet …”
“What?” Snow’s expression changed slightly.”Are you out of your mind? Don’t tell me you’re planning to use your 2000 attack high school student to attack my 3200 attack snake demon?”
“[Sakamoto-kun] ‘s special effect … Activated!” The next second, Feng bujue made a declaration.
The special effect of [Sakamoto-kun] is that at any stage of our turn, when the opponent has at least one hand, the player can “guess” the cards. If the player can guess the type of cards in the opponent’s hand, the opponent will have to discard all the cards in his hand. For every discarded card, Sakamoto-kun’s attack power will increase by 1000 points. This effect can only be activated once, and can not be activated again after failure.
“You … Are you going to bet again …” Snow’s face finally darkened after hearing the declaration.
“This is not a bet,” Feng bujue said.”You’ve already told me the type of the two cards you have, haven’t you?”
As soon as he said that, Snow’s face clearly showed a shocked expression. He couldn’t help but say,””Oh … Oh no!”
“Yes, your acting skills are not bad.” And Feng bujue … Was staring with his dead fish eyes and sneering.”From smugness, to hesitation, and then panic … It’s all an act, haha … Unfortunately, it’s not good enough.” He then pointed at snow and said,”the two cards in your hands are the Pi Xiu magic card and the … Monster Card!”
Snow’s expression … Froze.
At that moment, he was truly shocked. He was shocked by the other party’s “guessing Monster Card” action …
After a full five seconds, he spoke again in a cold tone,””You … How did you guess it?”
“Ha … It’s very simple.” Feng bujue replied with a smile,”when the reverse effect of the director’s prophecy was activated, you were already exposed …” He paused before continuing,”you probably don’t know this … But when the system announcement said ‘randomly show the hand of a player host’, your gaze naturally fell on your own hand. And after one second, when you’re halfway through the sentence ‘cancel the player’s summoning authority for normal, special, fusion, etc.’, Your line of sight … Subconsciously moves to the card on the left in your hand. ”
“Just based on this … Can you be so sure that it’s a Monster Card?” Snow immediately asked,”that could also be some kind of magic or trap related to’ summoning ‘.”
“You’re right. From that glance, I’m about sixty to seventy percent sure. ” Feng bujue laughed.”The thing that made me certain that it was a Monster Card … Was your words earlier,’wait until my turn, as long as I can get a Monster Card’…”
“Tsk … Is this overcorrection …” Snow already knew where his problem was, so he said angrily.
“That’s right, the lines that sound like you’re saying ‘I don’t have a Monster Card’, combined with your exaggerated acting, it’s like you’re confessing to yourself …” Feng bujue added.”Obviously, you’re not the type that ‘doesn’t look at your opponent’s card during a duel’; When the negative effect of [sword trickster] took effect after death, you didn’t show any surprise at all. It was clear that you had read the card in detail and remembered the special effect of this card. Therefore, you naturally know what [Sakamoto-kun] ‘s special effect is … I believe that the moment [Sakamoto-kun] appeared, you were already prepared to mislead me …”
“And so, you showed me your performance just now.” Then, brother Jue mimicked the man’s earlier action. He spread his hands, shook his head, and sighed.”Haha … Forgive me for being blunt, but your superficial acting still has a lot of room for improvement. Even though the control of your facial muscles is still pretty good, that careless look, the intentional tone, and the completely forgotten body language … They won’t work on a real liar.”
Feng bujue’s words, in a sense, had already categorized himself into the group of swindlers, but from his expression when he said that … He did not seem to have any moral or dignity barrier.
“In summary, putting aside the field magic you used in the last round and the two traps you covered the field, the remaining two cards in your hand are no different from the open in my opinion.” After two seconds of silence, Feng bujue summarized,”one of them is the magic card, air bubble, that I’ve already seen in the first round. You know very well that I will be able to guess this card, so … You tried your best to hide the fact that the other card is a ‘Monster Card’.”
“Phew …” Hearing this, snow heaved a long sigh of relief and quickly recovered his usual confident and arrogant look.”Okay!” Wonderful! Amazing!”
He used three words to praise brother Jue and then stuffed the two cards in his hand into the slot of the graveyard.
“As expected of the man I’ve taken a fancy to.” Snow’s psychological quality was excellent. He recovered his calm at the fastest speed.”Just now, for a few minutes, I thought your plan was to’ deliberately act dumb and make me give up on asking you to be a consultant ‘. Now it seems that … You were really pretending?”
“Pretending? What are you pretending for?” Feng bujue raised his head and pointed at the stage in a threatening manner.”When I’m on the stage of a duel, I will not disguise myself!”
“Uh …” Snow was a little confused when he saw this Chuunibyou’s behavior. He thought to himself, an unpredictable man … Is this the legendary Chuunibyou setting with super high IQ? Hmm…Actually…It’s quite cool to think about it …”
“Okay, let’s get back to business. The special effect of Sakamoto-kun has been successfully activated …” Feng bujue did not give the man a chance to speak.”Go!” He said. Secret technique: left and right jump!”
Following brother Jue’s declaration,[Sakamoto-kun] really did swing left and right on the field, creating many afterimages, and his attack rose to four thousand points.
“Sakamoto-kun, attack the eight-armed Naga!” Feng bujue’s declaration of attack came right after.”Secret skill: knee strike!”
After that, Sakamoto-kun appeared behind the eight-armed Naga as if he had teleported. His body was only half a step away from the Naga, almost touching the curve of its back.
Then …[Sakamoto-kun] leaned his upper body backward, placed his hands on the outside of his thighs, bent his knees forward … And pushed with all his might.
“Hey Hey … What kind of monsters is this guy using? what kind of weird attack method is this … Can he really kill him …” Snow couldn’t help but complain when he saw this.
However, the reality was that the [eight-armed Naga] lost its balance and fell to the ground in a very bad position. It fell onto the giant sword in its hand and was pierced through. One second later, it turned into a white light with a bang and shattered.
Di di di di di di di
The demerit sound effect on the duel table reminded snow … That he had lost 800 points in the battle.
At this point, Feng bujue’s second round was over. Both sides had no cards, and brother Jue had a monster with 4000 attack and zero cards.
As for snow … He was also empty on the field.
