Chapter 268: Dictatorship Sword
"So this is the rhythm..." Yu Cang's eyes seemed thoughtful.
The interweaving of death and life, the rhythm is not complex, after all, it is only a rare card. However, it can directly mobilize the soul card in the death cooldown.
This part of the rhythm of death fusion is exactly what Yu Cang needs.
Logically speaking, a fusion card with such low requirements should be of epic quality. This card is a bit of a gimmick, as it's specifically designed to fuse with Zerg souls. Zerg summons are inherently very tolerant and well-suited for fusion, so the requirements for this fusion card are lower.
The soul card used as material by this soul card will be directly disconnected when fusion occurs. This is a fusion rule discovered by Professor Guan.
Cards used as fusion materials in the deck and on the field will be sent directly to the graveyard, and cards used as fusion materials in the graveyard will be directly disconnected.
During the summoning of the Great Devourer, the materials on the field and in the graveyard were fused at the same time, so they all obeyed the lower rules and were disconnected together.
This rule is mentioned in the paper given by Professor Guan.
Yu Cang wrote down the mixed soul card patterns of death and life on a blank soul card. With the last stroke, a soul card was created.
After making this soul card with his own hands, he knew in his heart that this rule should be correct.
Of course... this is without the intervention of soul cards.
If the soul card ability is effective in it, it may be possible to "recycle the fusion" and directly return the fusion materials from the graveyard to the deck to achieve endurance.
"Not bad." Yu Cang nodded. "Then, how do I add this rhythm to my deck..."
The only object he needed for death fusion was the corpse of the Dark Flame Dragon Emperor. It didn't seem worthwhile to invest in a special fusion card just for this one card. You know, his deck was already full and there was no extra space for this kind of soul card.
In this case... the only thing left is to integrate the fusion effect into the summoned beast.
Yu Cang thought for a moment and took out a gray-white half-dragon.
Holding the array writing pen, Yu Cang wrote and drew for a while, and then added the rhythm of "Death Fusion" he had just learned.
This rhythm has no compatibility with the gray-white half-dragon, so once it is added, the entire card becomes a useless card.
However, Yu Cang was not in a hurry. With the entry recorder, everything could be turned into magic.
Entries implantation is the strongest fusion!
Yu Cang's eyes swept across the entry library.
"Let me think...it's you."
[Go to die] + [Orderly]!
[Orderly] can also be regarded as a classic fusion term.
The quality of these two entries is not high, and they are quite compatible with the soul card itself, so a white light flashed and the implantation was successful.
Yu Cang looked at the soul card in his hand, and after scanning it, his brows frowned slightly.
Hmm? ...Yeah, it might work.
After the successful implantation, the half-dragon man still has [Dragonborn] and [Falling Scales], but with an additional effect at the end.
[Return to the Battlefield]: After death, if there are dragon scales on cooldown in the deck, the corresponding number of dead dragon scales will be used as sacrifices to revive the soul card.
…
How should I put it, it is indeed quite useful.
With this ability, the half-dragon will still drop dragon scales after death, and can also return to the field directly. This way, the dragon scales on the field are definitely profitable, but...
I want the ability to fuse with the dead dragon scales, but not only don’t you fuse them, you’re even stealing them!
Stealing tributes, right?
Yu Cang scratched his head... He never expected that such an ability would appear.
Although this ability is good, if it is really added to the deck, it is hard to say whether it will improve the overall combat effectiveness.
After all, with an additional ability, the soul energy consumption of the half-dragon will definitely increase accordingly. Previously, the two gray-white half-dragons were the result of calculating the soul energy consumption, but now if this changes... you can only summon one half-dragon at the beginning.
The gain does not outweigh the loss.
The same goes for other soul cards. The soul energy consumption is calculated just right. If you want to add this ability, you must make certain sacrifices on the panel... which is actually unnecessary.
"It's difficult." Yu Cang sighed.
However, no matter what, this ability has certain reference value, so Yu Cang still recorded it carefully.
The rhythm was very simple, and Yu Cang quickly mastered it, so he immediately opened the entry library and started a new round of implantation.
Then, Yu Cang watched helplessly as all kinds of half-dragons who stole tributes in various ways were born one by one from under his hands.
Some use dead dragon scales to revive themselves, some use dead dragon scales to revive teammates, some use dead dragon scales to increase attack power, some use energy waves, some use atavism, and some use buffs.
There is even a miraculous effect that consumes a certain amount of dead dragon scales and puts all dragon scales on the field into death cooling.
It's polite to put some back after stealing some food... But you're stealing tributes meant for other dragons and putting them here! You're robbing Peter to pay Paul, misappropriating tributes!
No matter what entries Yu Cang implanted, he never used the dead dragon scales to fuse the dragon clan!
"This..." Yu Cang was shocked.
You are such half-dragons!
Do you really not want to offer a sacrifice to the great Nether Flame Dragon Emperor Corpse? It would be fine if you didn't want to, but you're still finding new ways to steal it!
Yu Cang opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
He remembered the background setting of the half-dragon.
A group of people with dragon blood, but of low status. Not only are they not valued by the dragon clan, but they are often captured and used as alchemical materials. Therefore, they have great hatred for the dragon clan, but because of the shackles of their blood, they dare not show it to the dragon clan at all.
As for the Unborn Dragon... it was a young dragon that accidentally fell into the hands of a half-dragon. For some unknown reason, the half-dragon didn't kill it, but instead raised it. Eventually, during an attack that wiped out the entire half-dragon tribe, the Unborn Dragon evolved into an adult dragon.
"It does... unexpectedly fit the setting."
The unborn dragon was raised from childhood, but this group of half-dragons definitely don't have a good face towards other dragons. Even if they are timid and dare not cause trouble, they will secretly disobey... and steal tributes.
Could it be that even an entry recorder cannot escape the background settings of the soul card?
...Well, it must be just my bad luck.
Yu Cang sighed, and seeing that the entries were still cooling down, he picked up a soul card and implanted a few entries into it.
This was just a casual try, but I didn't expect it to be successful.
Yu Cang was stunned and looked over quickly. The next second, his eyes widened slightly.
No way... shipping like this?
The soul card he had just casually implanted was not a half-dragon, nor was it even a summoning card, but... the Sword of Judgment.
The implanted terms are: [Anchor] + [Fusion] + [Connection] + [Sustainability]
…
Soul Card Name: Dictator Sword
Category: Continuous Spell Card
Number of anchor points:?
Quality: Connection
Attributes: None
ability:
This card requires a "Judgment Spell Card" as the material for Link Summoning, and the number of anchor points is determined by the number of materials.
[Dictatorship]: A single attack from this soul card is equivalent to multiple simultaneous attacks, equal to the number of anchor points. Each simultaneous attack can choose a different damage type. If this card is used against a target you control, it kills the target immediately.
[Give and Take]: After activating this card, select any target killed by this Soul Card, as well as any target in your deck, on cooldown, on the field, or disconnected, and record their information on the anchor point. When this Soul Card becomes a fusion material, it can replace the recorded material.
[Born Before the King!]: After activating, fuses itself with the summoned beast. This fused beast cannot be destroyed in battle by targets of lower quality than itself. After activating this ability, refresh the Death Cooldown of all Judgment Spell Cards.
…
Yu Cang was stunned.
Just pull it out and it’s shipped?
wrong.
Yu Cang shook his head.
This is not a shipment.
This is a guaranteed minimum!
I have implanted this into my own deck countless times, and it is almost time for it to be released in this "card pool".
Yu Cang looked at the blue soul card in his hand and read its effects carefully.
Although it is not what I want, it seems... it can indeed achieve the effect I want.
Try it first.
Thinking of this, Yu Cang went straight to the testing site.
"The number of anchor points is determined by the number of materials...Okay then."
Yu Cang stretched out his hand, and the two "Swords of Judgment" were activated directly.
Click!
Two soul cards, one on the left and one on the right, flipped open at his side, and a long sword flew out from them, but it wandered aimlessly in the air. Obviously, the Sword of Judgment could not find its target this time.
It's just a spell card with a very short duration. If you don't let it attack in time, it will soon dissipate into the air.
Before dissipating, Yu Cang stretched out his hand.
"Use two Swords of Judgment to establish a connection anchor point, summon: link 2, Sword of Dictatorship!"
Bang!
The soul card on the fingertips suddenly shattered, and countless fragments reassembled in the air to form a gorgeous anchor ring. The two swords of judgment immediately found their direction, and turned into a torrent of information that crashed into the anchor ring, forming two symmetrical anchor points.
Yu Cang clenched his palm in front of the anchor ring, and then swung it suddenly, and a long sword appeared in his hand with the movement.
The anchor ring seemed to replace the structure of the sword guard, slowly rotating at the junction of the hilt and the sword body. Waves of light and shadow flowed on the sword body. In a trance, Yu Cang seemed to see the shape of a fusion vortex in it.
The flowing energy occasionally refracted the light, distorting the visual shape of the sword, making it seem both real and unreal.
"This is... the ceremonial sword of dictatorship." Yu Cang felt it carefully.
The effect is really good.
Although it was a spell card, due to its [Permanence] ability, as long as the mental pressure could be withstood, the sword would almost always exist, making it a completely unique equipment card. Furthermore, it naturally possessed the characteristics of a spell card, allowing Yu Cang to control it to fly around when not in hand.
As for attack power——
Yu Cang swung the sword lightly, and the sword tip pierced the air with a sharp whistling sound, like two sounds overlapping.
This is the effect of [dictatorship].
Because the current anchor point count of the Dictator Sword is 2, when Yu Cang swings it, it is equivalent to two swords overlapping each other. Therefore, although there is no additional attack power, the attack power of this long sword is also quite good.
Moreover, the damage type of the two overlapping swords can be selected by yourself. For example, Yu Cang can make both swords cause physical damage, or one sword can cause physical damage and the other sword can cause spell damage.
Furthermore, the sword's only damage type now includes the inherent physical damage and non-attribute spell damage from the Sword of Judgment's [Judgment]. Beyond that, it can also directly copy the damage type of other targets and apply it as well.
For example, mental damage, spell damage with elemental attributes... and so on.
At that time, you can even use one slash to directly cause overload, electric shock, evaporation, etc.
As for the means of copying...it is naturally the anchor point connection.
This ability can be considered good when placed in an equipment card, but the real weight still depends on the following two abilities.
Granting and taking can directly allow yourself to replace the fusion material!
After this long list, basically except for the soul cards in the extra deck, you can pick any material in the deck!
It's simply too outrageous.
If the conjecture is correct...
Yu Cang took a deep breath, took out a few soul cards, and started the operation.
After a while.
Yu Cang canceled the summons of the Vortex Realm Dragon on the field.
At this time, ten dead dragon scales had been collected in the cemetery.
So……
"Activate the ability [Give and Take]!" Yu Cang held the Dictatorship Sword upside down, raising it high in front of him, "Choose the target: Dead Dragon Scale!"
Suddenly, the two anchor points emitted a faint blue light, and invisible energy flowed into the anchor points from the void, making the light on them brighter and brighter!
Yu Cang was determined in his heart.
Can!
Moreover, these dead dragon scales seemed to be counted as a kind of material regardless of their quantity. In other words, one of the anchor points of the Dictatorship Sword now copied the information of ten dead dragon scales that could be used for fusion!
And the other anchor point... naturally records the information of the young dragon!
"Now—" A smile appeared on Yu Cang's face, "The corpse of the Dark Flame Dragon Emperor was born before the king!"
Bang!
The Dictator Sword suddenly shattered and turned into countless rays of light and shadows that rushed into the ground in front. Suddenly, a huge vortex unfolded, and Yu Cang only felt that the ground under his feet suddenly moved.
“Huh…”
The giant dragon with its wings crouched low raised its head from the ground, and pale green flames burned all the way, lighting up the gaps in the rock-like dragon scales on its back.
Yu Cang raised his head, looked into its empty eyes, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Finally, the corpse of the Dark Flame Dragon Emperor was summoned by fusion!
The tenth-level epic summoned beast, whether in terms of panel or ability, gives people a full sense of security.
Furthermore, the corpse of the Dark Flame Dragon Emperor summoned with [Born Before the King!] would not be destroyed by the battle—in a battle between Level 5 Soul Card Masters, Epic was already the pinnacle, and Legendary was almost impossible to appear.
The reason why I used the word "almost" is because Yu Cang himself might be able to summon...
The ground shook, and [Hell Rock and Soil] rose from the ground, carrying Yu Cang to a place near the corpse of the Dark Flame Dragon Emperor. He gently stroked the dragon's scales covered with burn marks and nodded with satisfaction.
Not counting the soul cards that Ye Lai had, this soul card could be considered the most powerful soul card under his command. Only the rotating black and white dragon could rival it.
After confirming that there was no problem, Yu Cang returned to the ground and waved his hand to cancel the dragon's summons.
This guy's ability is very suitable for sustained combat, but its current summoning path is still a bit cumbersome. After all, the only way to send the dragon scales into death cooling is fusion... We have to think of a way to simplify the steps.
Well... the problem comes back to these half-dragons who stole the tributes.
Yu Cang had a toothache for a while.
If the lower-level system is not improved, it will be useless no matter how powerful the superiors are.
Duan Feng was right, his start was still too primitive.
Um...Duan Feng?
Yu Cang's eyes suddenly lit up.
Oh, by the way, how could I forget about him.
Isn't Aqiu studying in the Starry Sky Vision now? He must know Duan Feng's deck. Perhaps, I can ask him and expand my thinking.
Thinking of this, Yu Cang no longer hesitated, turned back to the house, and entered the starry sky vision.
…
Jieying Library
Aqiu was on the first floor, flipping through the documents.
Here, he couldn't go to higher floors, but even if he could only read the books on the first floor, he still benefited a lot.
You know, the Jieying Library was basically established by Ren Zheng.
As the only guardian of Yan State who has resonance of both light and dark attributes, Ren Zheng's understanding of these two attributes is absolutely at the top of Yan State.
Even if the first level only contains some basic knowledge, it is enough for Aqiu to learn.
These days, Aqiu's life here is not particularly satisfactory.
As "Duan Feng", he had bullied Yu Cang in the past. No matter what the reason was, this was a fact. Yu Cang himself might not care, but Ren Zheng didn't expect him to be treated well.
Aqiu is just a companion soul, so he can only stay in the Starry Sky Vision and cannot stay in the real world. Although the Jieying Campus has a solidified rhythm, it is not an existence that ordinary people can always contact.
So here, Duan Feng often feels dizzy and in order to fight this feeling, he even has to spend half of the day sleeping.
The other researchers also knew a little about his identity, and it was even more impossible for them to have any communication with him - after all, this Jieying campus was Yu Cang's territory. Although Aqiu was allowed to stay here by Yu Cang, who knew what Yu Cang was thinking?
Maybe this is part of Yu Cang's revenge.
If they got too close to Aqiu and made Yu Cang unhappy, then the gains wouldn't make up for the losses... Although they thought the probability was low, what if it happened? It's better to have less trouble than more.
Therefore, during the past few days here, Aqiu felt like a hostage from a foreign country who had been reduced to a prisoner.
He was naturally aware of this, but he also knew that he could not blame anyone else and could only take it slow.
In the past two days, he has done a lot of odd jobs in the Jieying Library, and also took the initiative to help other researchers organize rhythms, etc., in order to change the impression of himself in their minds.
The Starry Sky Vision Area is a very special place, with rhythm everywhere. Finding so many "odd jobs" really gives Aqiu a headache.
…
Aqiu used his little finger, the only part of his rhythmic body, to laboriously gather together a pile of rhythmic leaves in the shape of fallen leaves, then he straightened up and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you, Aqiu." A shadow floated over from behind.
This ray of light and shadow has condensed into a rhythmic body the size of a palm, and the talent is already quite high.
He has recently been trying to use his rhythmic body to activate a large number of solidified rhythms at the same time to see what kind of rhythmic sound will be born.
However, this job is very energy-consuming. He has chosen a relatively safe rhythm, but when he is unlucky, he will still be directly ejected from the Starry Sky Vision.
The most important thing is that these fallen leaf-type rhythms are easy to disperse when they come into contact with the rhythmic body, and they have to be regrouped after each experiment... but this regrouping also consumes energy, and as a result, the efficiency is extremely low.
If someone is willing to help, he will naturally be happy to do so.
"It's okay." Aqiu smiled. "By the way... I've seen a lot of unfamiliar sights in the Starry Sky Vision recently, and they all seem very powerful... Do you know what happened?"
"Oh, that," the researcher said, "there's a 'World Shadow Summit' being held here soon. Almost all the nation-level beings in the country will be there."
"Huh?" Aqiu was stunned. "This...isn't it unrealistic? The national guardians are all very busy. Even if the association headquarters invites them, few can spare the time..."
"You don't know this yet, do you?" the researcher said, looking at Aqiu with amusement. "Teacher Yu Cang created a soul card called 'Path to the World of Consciousness'. From now on, no matter where you are, you can reach it instantly within the Starry Sky Vision... This summit is just a test of the waters at the national defense level."
"...Is that so?" Aqiu hissed.
Have they made a new soul card?... How scary.
He hadn't even fully understood the Jieying Campus yet, and Yu Cang had already made so many innovations to the Xingtian Vision...
After calming down a bit, Aqiu said, "Then I'll leave first... You can do the experiment slowly."
"Okay, thank you for your help."
Aqiu turned around and walked towards the Jieying Library.
This researcher's experiment... He had witnessed it once before.
That complex rhythmic sound was a headache, but fortunately, it was not his limit yet.
Although he only listened to it once, he still found some patterns from the rhythmic sounds. Basically, all the possibilities were predictable... It was very interesting, but it was a pity that it was something he could not use, so he did not look at it in the next few experiments.
But he didn't expect that the researcher had conducted so many experiments and still hadn't found the pattern... He obviously seemed to be a person with good talent.
Let’s go to the library and have a look.
I am almost done with the first floor, but Principal Ren seems to be having a hard time talking to me. I don’t know how long it will take for Principal Ren to change his opinion of me.
As Aqiu was thinking all the way, he didn't pay much attention to his surroundings until he passed a bench. He suddenly realized something and paused.
When he turned around, he saw that Yu Cang had appeared on the bench at some point and was looking at him with a smile.
Aqiu's expression changed.
After personally participating in the practice of Starry Sky Vision, he realized more deeply... how exaggerated the rhythmic body in front of him was.
How long does one have to stay in the Starry Sky Vision Area? What kind of terrifying talent does one need to have to possess such a perfect body!
Yu Cang patted his side.
"Come, sit down for a while."
Aqiu took a breath and then sat on the bench as he was told.
"You're back? I heard you gained a lot in the capital."
"Yeah." Yu Cang leaned back in his chair. "I learned a lot of new things and made some progress. I even came up with a new summoning method. It was a coincidence, I guess."
Aqiu: “…”
Do you want to listen to what you are saying.
What? You sell summoning methods wholesale? You can bring back one every time you go on a long trip?
The first sentence is so Versailles, is it still possible to have a conversation?
"Aqiu, how is it here?" Yu Cang changed the subject.
“…Not bad, I learned a lot.”
"I see." Yu Cang rubbed his chin. "By the way, there's something I want to ask of you... Could you please tell me about the composition of your deck? You know, I'm also a user of Light and Shadow Dragon. I'm currently upgrading my deck, but I don't have any ideas yet."
"That's...good." Aqiu raised his head. "Except for the Chaos Dragon Egg, I can tell you everything. However, I have a condition."
"What conditions?" Yu Cang's eyes lit up.
It doesn’t really matter whether there is a Chaos Dragon Egg or not.
Although that summoning method is very powerful, he doesn't like it... He came to ask about the deck not to copy it, but to inspire some inspiration.
"I want to see the rhythm of 'synchronization' and 'star level'!" said Aqiu.
Starry Sky Vision can’t read the paper...and no one will pass this kind of information to him.
"I thought it was something else." Yu Cang grinned, "Aqiu, I have high hopes for you. Not only 'Synchronization', 'Fusion', 'Connection', but even new summoning methods that will appear in the future, you can look them up... I will organize them, it's no problem."
Aqiu, or Duan Feng, is undoubtedly a genius.
He undoubtedly meets the princess's requirements.
Now that genius has come to him, he will not waste his talent.
