This Summoner Is Too Powerful

Chapter 621 - 458: Core of Counterattack Flow II_2

Without the buff from [Dragon Soldier Captain], the other [Dragon Soldiers] suddenly became much weaker.

In the end, the victory in the card game was smoothly achieved.

[No Dragon Power Dragon!]

Buzz...

As the last [Dragon Soldier] card fell, the blue light barrier began to fade away.

The four dragon soldiers lay motionless on the ground.

The floating cards above them were the best proof of the four people’s victory.

"These guys collected a lot of cards..."

Ji Jiao couldn’t help but sigh.

It turns out that besides his own card, there were quite a few cards floating slightly lower in the air.

These cards were the price left behind by adventurers when they retreated in defeat.

Among them, the Dragon Soldier Captain had the most cards, over a dozen, with the remaining three dragon soldiers each having seven or eight.

"Just right, everyone pick one dragon soldier."

"How about it?"

Li Pu proposed the idea of splitting the spoils.

After all, it was a joint victory, and everyone had a right to participate in the distribution.

Due to the unexpected presence of the [Dragon Soldier Captain], if it had just been him and Ah Yajun facing this crowd, it certainly wouldn’t have been so easy.

He would have had to bring out several dragon cards to have a chance at victory.

"Let the two of you pick first."

Ji Jiao agreed to the proposal and was quite tactful.

By this point, both he and Hu Wei could see the status difference between the two people on the opposite side.

Before Li Pu could say anything, Ah Yajun immediately grinned and made a gesture inviting him to choose.

The former top card player in the first year at Imperial University, a straightforward and honest ethnic minority student, had finally been corrupted by the likes of Wu Guinan and Long Ren.

After the exhilaration, he might be even more deeply corrupted than those two.

"..."

Li Pu didn’t bother to say anything to Ah Yajun, merely shaking his head in resignation, then stepped forward.

A casual glance was enough for him to make a decision.

[Dragon Soldier Captain] was obviously more valuable than [Dragon Soldier], and as for the spoils cards, they were all of similar quality, although the Dragon Soldier Captain had slightly more.

So he didn’t hesitate to choose the pile of cards belonging to the Dragon Soldier Captain.

After the four of them divided the spoils, they didn’t stay there but retraced their steps a bit to find a hidden corner for a brief respite.

Curious, Li Pu then demonstrated the card he just obtained.

[Dragon Soldier Captain]

Berserk, 10 points, A

Attack 30, 100/100

[Dragon Body - Passive]: All damage taken by Dragon Soldier Captain is reduced by 10

[Captain’s Command - Passive]: When Dragon Soldier Captain is present, your [Dragon Soldiers] gain +10 attack/30 health

[Dragon Sacrifice - Current 100% Health]: Dragon Soldier Captain sacrifices itself to fully recharge the energy of three of your dragon cards

"This... is a bit different from what I imagined."

Ji Jiao was a bit stunned after reviewing the card.

In the monster game, [Dragon Soldier Captain] could give [Dragon Soldiers] +20 attack/100 health, but when it became a player’s card, the effect was halved. This needless to say, is commonplace in the cubic card metaverse.

But it was surprising in several aspects.

Firstly, it turned out to be a berserk-style card.

And its buff was unexpectedly limited, only affecting [Dragon Soldiers].

"But since it can recharge allies, why didn’t it use it just now?"

Ji Jiao raised a question.

But as soon as he spoke, he figured out the answer himself.

Earlier, this [Dragon Soldier Captain] was at the trump card position, and sacrificing would mean immediate defeat.

Moreover, it was a PVE monster game, not a PVP card game.

In the monster game, if [Dragon Soldier Captain] falls, it really falls.

After all, it is a living creature, and it’s natural to fear death.

"But its active skill is also quite useless."

Hu Wei timely offered an assessment.

"Sacrificing one card to gain full energy for three cards is extremely useful in the right context."

"Especially for intelligent-type cards with empty slots or those with deep energy slots that consume a lot when using their skills."

"Yet, it’s effective only on dragon cards..."

"Even though it’s slightly broader than only affecting [Dragon Soldiers], it’s still too limited."

Dragon cards are not a type seen everywhere on the streets.

It’s only due to the special environment in Coiling Dragon Valley; otherwise, not just in Lanlan Town, she felt that you probably couldn’t find a single dragon within hundreds of kilometers.

"When playing PVE, a [Dragon Soldier Captain] paired with a whole set of [Dragon Soldiers] can be quite formidable."

Ji Jiao agreed with Hu Wei’s view but still offered Li Pu some strategic advice.

In standard monster games, a combination of 1 [Dragon Soldier Captain] + 3 [Dragon Soldiers] is enough.

And surely by now, Li Pu can confidently assemble such a deck.

First, let the [Dragon Soldiers] explode with a wave of [Dragon Soldier Battle Technique], and after the effect fades, sacrifice the [Dragon Soldier Captain], enabling another wave of [Dragon Soldier Battle Technique].

Two consecutive waves would have immense power.

Perhaps because what he said made sense, Ji Jiao observed Li Pu’s mouth curling into a smile.

Feeling gratified that his strategic advice was effective, the young man felt genuinely pleased.

However, Ji Jiao didn’t notice that since Hu Wei started her evaluation, Ah Yajun’s expression seemed quite indescribable.

He was the one who truly knew why Li Pu was smiling.

Is this card really limited?

card to fully recharge 3 cards?

This guy has made a huge gain!

Because he has a full set of dragon cards!

"Yes, it is indeed a useful card."

After everyone reviewed it, Li Pu put the [Dragon Soldier Captain] away.

The synergy effect was just the shortcoming of his dragon card set.

Do not underestimate it as it being useful only to [Dragon Soldiers]. Perhaps through his fusion, it could be made effective on all dragon cards.

He had experimented with similar adjustments before.

And even if it couldn’t be altered, it didn’t matter, for this synergy effect was secondary.

The most crucial part was the skill [Dragon Sacrifice].

He had seen recharge cards before, but never one that fully recharges in an instant.

This was extremely useful and truly outstanding.

When he had time later, he would research it through [Card Creation].

He wanted to see if he could extract this skill through some synthesis method and integrate it into his dragon cards.

With the acquisition of [Dragon Soldier Captain], Li Pu felt that this whole trip to Coiling Dragon Valley was worthwhile.

After tidying up, the four continued moving forward.

...

Lanlan Town, inside the mayor’s office.

"Mayor, you are making things difficult for me."

The Demon Man boss looked at the other with a wry smile.

This middle-aged man, with white strands mixed in his hair and an air of authority, was the mayor of Lanlan Town, Ji Baimang.

"You are a businessman, I am a customer."

Facing the Demon Man’s wry smile, Ji Baimang tapped his fingers on the armrest of his chair and said slowly, "I’m trying to buy cards from you, how is that difficult for you?"

"But..."

The Demon Man felt his throat dry up.

He had only heard that this person was one of the original settlers of the metaverse, a veteran of this new world.

But he didn’t know what the other had done before crossing over.

Anyways, the aura of authority without anger described such a person perfectly.

Just the unsaid yet palpable sense of oppression made him extremely uneasy.

"But I’m not planning to sell this card yet!"

The Demon Man finally managed to gather his strength.

"Hah, you put it on display, yet claim it’s not for sale?"

The cold snort from Ji Baimang seemed to hammer directly on the Demon Man’s heart.

"Do you know that this town has been threatened by Coiling Dragon Valley for a long time?"

"Are you deliberately trying to hinder my determination to protect Lanlan Town?"

With this seriousness laid out, the Demon Man boss was left speechless.

Ji Baimang was a conscientious mayor.

Lanlan Town had suffered under Coiling Dragon Valley for a long time.

He had repeatedly led people to repel the threat but never succeeded.

He even had several cards confiscated by that damned Dragon Soldier Captain.

But now that the opportunity unexpectedly surfaced, how could he stand still?

Indeed.

The card Ji Baimang wanted to buy was that [Chaotic Elements].
