Chapter 493 Doubles Final
Time flew by and it was already afternoon.
The double duel has finally reached the finals!
As expected, the combination of Lan Jun and Wang Chu successfully reached the finals.
Their opponents are two people from the imperial capital.
Bu Yu and Wei Gai.
These two people are very similar in height and body shape, and even walk at a similar pace. If they didn't look really different, people would think they were the same person.
Obviously, they definitely have a good understanding.
"Let's go, Lan Jun." Wang Chu breathed a sigh of relief. "Our opponents aren't that strong. Maybe we can really win the championship... But we can't let down the people from Gudu University and Yu Cang."
The performance of Gloria University over the years has been above average, and it is not particularly dominant.
Now, they have made it to the finals after overcoming all obstacles, which is already a very good result in the school's history... But after all, with Yu Cang's terrifying record in front of them, the pressure in their hearts is quite great.
There's no way, Yu Cang's performance is too exaggerated.
Moreover... in the eyes of most people now, since they have Yu Cang in Ancient Capital University and have been in close contact with so many advanced achievements, the final result should be better, or in other words, it should be first!
Otherwise, it would be a bit embarrassing.
"...Yeah." Lan Jun nodded.
His lips were a little pale and his forehead was covered in cold sweat. He looked very nervous.
Seeing this, Wang Chu shook his head and did not try to comfort him.
How did this kid Lan Jun manage to create such a huge “contrast”?
Don't be fooled by how nervous he is now. Once he's on the court, he will be incredibly calm... Lan Jun is definitely a big-game player. The more nervous he is before the game, the bigger the event, and the steadier his performance will be.
Comfort him? He felt that he was the one who needed comforting.
The two men walked onto the arena, stood in the center, shook hands with each other, and then returned to their seats.
Wang Chu tilted his head to take a look... As expected, Lan Jun, who was panicking just now, now had a completely calm expression. His eyes were sharp and firm, and he looked like a big boss.
On the contrary, standing on the largest duel arena in the country, his heart was beating so fast that it seemed like it would jump out of his chest in the next second.
bite!
A flash of light passed by, and the silent round has begun!
brush!
Lan Jun didn't hesitate at all, raised his hand, and threw out a soul card.
The great elf who roams at night!
It consumes a lot of energy, but its second ability [Dream of Returning to the Old Hometown] can sacrifice itself and unfold a Dream Spirit Field Card without any consumption!
This soul card is the core of Lan Jun's deck and also the strongest starter.
On the side, Wang Chu, who had calmed down, also threw out three soul cards.
Click!
The soul card shattered, and three mysterious magic circles, one green, one purple and one red, opened up out of thin air around Wang Chu. They were three permanent spell cards.
Impact Feather Array, Explosive Flame Killing Array, Soul Abyss Summoning Array!
Buzz...
A purple-black energy overflowed from the Zhaolin Formation and attached to Wang Chu's card box. All his soul cards were attached with the "Abyss Mark". Each one would leave an Abyss crystal after being used, continuously strengthening the ability of the Zhaolin Formation.
Wang Chu first used the explosive flame killing array, so two balls of explosive flames had accumulated in the killing array due to the use of two spell cards.
A white-hot ball of fire condensed in the hollow at the center of the red magic circle and burned slowly. Wang Chu stretched out his finger, and the Explosive Flame Killing Formation quietly landed on his fingertips, spinning like a galaxy.
There was a commotion on the field.
Although Qi Wei had used the Perpetual Spell Contract Magic Circle in a solo event before, that scene did not actually cause large-scale discussion. After all, there was only this one, and everyone just thought it was some special single soul card.
The back-story is also based on monster cards, and not many people would associate it with spell cards.
After all, although the permanent spell has been announced, due to various reasons, it is only popular within the circle of card makers, and ordinary people have not had so many opportunities to come into contact with it.
But as Wang Chu walked along, everyone had already noticed something was wrong.
The permanent spells in Wang Chu's hands all had prototypes, so they were recognized as soon as they were used, but...
How can you keep using this "Explosive Flame Killing Strike"?
The big guy's explosive flame combo can kill with just a few fireballs, but why is your magic circle floating around you all the time and the firepower never stops?
Isn’t this cheating!
At this time, after the explanation, everyone gradually understood the abnormal type of continuous spell.
It doesn't take up mental pressure! Instead, it takes up the upper limit of soul energy!
This concept is advanced enough to make people stunned, just like one day you suddenly discover that wireless charging technology has become fully mature and a power tower can still charge your mobile phone from 800 meters away.
In the world of Soul Cards, this kind of property really has a full sense of "technology".
You know, the most important factor that prevents soul cards from existing forever is mental stress. If this thing exists at all, the risk of sudden death will increase exponentially, and... now there is a soul card with zero mental stress?
Doesn't that mean that soul cards that can last forever have already appeared! And card pet technology has matured?
Many people began to read Yu Cang's paper over and over again, trying to find clues - this concept is really too popular, it is a setting that only exists in science fiction novels.
In fact, in terms of "science fiction", all the achievements that Yu Cang had produced before were far less intuitive than the "sustainability" with zero mental stress.
That's right, our XP is permanent.
And Wang Chu's performance did not live up to the reputation of this permanent spell. After so many years, the pure spell flow once again stood on the league stage, and I don't know how many old soul card masters were moved to tears.
…
Opposite Lan Jun and Wang Chu, Bu Yu and Wei Gai had serious expressions.
Their opponents are very strong, and judging from the analysis of past games, they may not have given their full strength.
However, they are not easy to deal with!
Thinking of this, the two of them moved in a surprisingly consistent manner. With a wave of their hands, three soul cards were used up!
"I summon: Baptized of Dragon Light, Herald of Radiance, Priest of Praying Souls!"
"I summon: Cursed Son, Dark Shadow, and Black Priest!"
Buzz!
The shadows of six soul cards flipped around the two of them, and then shattered one after another, and six summoned beasts suddenly appeared on the field!
Their two decks, namely "Dragon Sanctuary" and "God's Curse", are a classic set of opposing decks in the same world view.
The two decks represent light and darkness respectively, and there is a huge contradiction in their attributes, so it is absolutely impossible for them to be added to a deck.
However, if the two sets of card decks belonging to light and darkness fight at the same time with certain skills, they can burst out with considerable combat power... Therefore, they were thrown into a double duel.
If it can't be added to a deck, then I'll give it to two people separately!
However, the fighting style of the two is obviously not that simple.
Everyone summoned three summoned beasts first... This soul energy consumption means that none of them is level five, otherwise, one tube of soul energy would definitely not be enough.
If it had happened before, summoning a few small fry first would have definitely made people laugh, but now, the audience knew what this meant.
It’s time to start synchronizing!
The atmosphere suddenly became heavy, and fighting spirit rose in the eyes of the four people at the same time.
At a certain moment——
The silent round ends!
brush!
Lan Jun waved his hand and threw out two soul cards.
"I summon, the night-wandering goblin, the night-wandering gargoyle!"
Bang!
The two soul cards shattered into thin air, and the night-wandering fairy flapped its wings and flew out. As soon as it appeared, it opened its mouth and activated [Midnight Chant]!
Everyone fell asleep!
The gargoyle closest to the fairy was the first to feel the sleeping effect, and then the unique sensing ability of the Creator Clan [Shock] was triggered. A light flashed in the gargoyle's eyes, and it came alive, flapping its wings and flew forward!
Bu Yu frowned slightly.
Didn't you just use the Great Elf's [Dream of Hometown]... It seems you want to accumulate more resources first.
After all, after the epic venue was opened, Lan Jun's mental pressure basically reached its limit, and it was unlikely that he would use a new soul card. Now the Great Elf Master was already standing on the field, and his ability could be activated at any time, so there was no need to rush.
The mental pressure on the Great Elf User is much less than that on the Field Card!
Bu Yu turned his head and looked at Wei Gai, and he could already read his thoughts from his eyes.
Obviously, the opponent felt that their early burst was not strong enough, so they were not in a hurry to seize the rhythm.
But what they didn't expect was that they had revealed it on purpose!
In the final, they have to adopt a tactic they have never used before, and fight hard in the early stage!
They knew clearly that once the field cards were unfolded, they would be at a huge disadvantage, so they deliberately concealed their strength in order to catch them off guard in the final!
Do you have any backup plan you haven't used yet? Then never use it again!
Immediately, the two of them looked serious.
"I use the Baptized of Dragon Light as a coordinator to synchronize with the Dark Shadow and the Black Priest!"
"I use the Cursed Son as a coordinator to synchronize with the Glorious Herald and the Soul-Praying Priest!"
This is the "mutual multiplication synchronization" that they have never used even when they are facing a huge disadvantage!
The coordination of light attributes is to use dark attribute summoned beasts to adjust the stars, and vice versa. This is the real killer trump card of their combination!
The two said in unison: "4+4+3 stars confirmed, come out——"
"Fallen Son of God, Muga!"
"Dragonlight Curse Spirit, Chelans!"
boom!
In an instant, two eleventh-level monsters appeared on the field!
The aura of darkness and light intertwined on the bodies of the summoned beasts. The conflicting energies made the two summoned beasts look extremely unstable, as if they did not need to attack, and they would collapse and dissipate on their own in the next second!
The two's operation is not over yet.
"I activate: Dragon's Radiance!"
"I activate: God's Curse!"
Buzz!
Wen Renge had initially used the spell card Dragon's Radiance. Its ability was to "select a humanoid summoned beast, change its attribute to light, change its race to dragon, and grant three opportunities to cast 'Dragon's Breath'."
This is actually the embodiment of "Dragon Protection" in this deck.
And... everyone clearly saw that when the dragon light took effect on the Fallen Son of God, this originally extremely unstable summoned beast suddenly calmed down, its pale body wrapped in bandages became stable, and a thin layer of light lingered on its dark wings behind it.
Bu Yu smiled.
The Fallen Son of God is very powerful, but extremely unstable. Its first ability is [Sentence the God to be Executed]: When this soul card is on the field, it is sent to death cooldown.
The unstable synchronization and the contradiction of energy make it impossible for this summoned beast to join the battle!
However, once it is attached with the Dragon's Light, it is different.
The second ability [Forgiveness of Dragon Light]: When this soul card is affected by "Dragon Light", [Judgment of God to be Executed] becomes invalid. At this time, each time a dragon breath is activated, a "Dragon Light" soul card in death cooling must be disconnected.
Hey, it’s stable now!
Now, his mental stress is close to the maximum value, and there are only four Dragon Light Soul Cards in the death cooldown. When there are no soul cards that can be disconnected or the duration of the Dragon Light Radiance after death has passed, [Judgment of the God to be Executed] will still take effect, but before that, it is enough!
Wei Gai's Dragon Light Curse Spirit also has similar abilities and settings. This early burst of power can definitely end the battle quickly!
Across from him, Wang Chu frowned.
Changing tactics?
It's really difficult.
But...it didn't exceed expectations.
Wang Chu hooked his finger, and a soul card was used!
After using three perpetual cards, his soul energy limit has been suppressed to the limit, but fortunately, his deck is full of spell cards, and spell cards don’t consume much soul energy!
His current limit is just enough to cast a spell!
His mental pressure is a terrifying "zero", and his soul energy recovery speed is lightning fast. He only needs to wait two seconds to release another spell!
"Arcane Tide!"
boom!
Arcane missiles gushed out and rushed towards the Fallen Son of God!
At the same time, the Explosive Killing Array directly launched the [Continuous Killing]. Three fireballs left the array and suddenly grew into explosive fireballs as big as a small house. Together with the arcane missiles, they rushed towards the Fallen Son of God!
However, the arcane missiles were still too weak in front of the eleventh-level Fallen Son of God. The Son of God wiped out all the missiles with just a wave of his hand. Although the explosive fireballs were a little more difficult to deal with, the damage was limited, and the Son of God did not even need to use dragon breath.
Bang!
The Dragon Light Curse Spirit swung its giant fist and knocked the flying gargoyle away with one punch. With just one punch, the gargoyle was covered with cracks all over its body, and it looked like it was about to break.
The two eleventh-level creatures were extremely fast. When they arrived in front of him, Wang Chu’s second tube of soul energy had just been turned on - only two seconds had passed!
Lan Jun looked calm and continued to operate calmly.
The Night Fairy's [Midnight Chant] is useless against epic cards... but I have enough soul energy now.
"Sacrifice the Night Wandering Fairy—" Lan Jun said as he stepped back to create distance, "Summon, Level Six—Night Wandering Dragonborn!"
Void level epic!
"It's useless!" Bu Yu waved his hand decisively, "Fallen Godson, activate [Dragon Breath]!"
boom!
A pale flame ignited in the mouth of the Son of God, and in the next second, he would use dragon breath to annihilate all the enemies in front of him!
As for the magnet, a light flashed in Lan Jun's eyes.
"Great Elf, activate [Dream of Homecoming], sacrifice myself, and activate the Field Card from your deck - Dragon's Sleeping Tree!"
boom!
A giant tree rose from the ground, and on its crown, a deep yellow glowing fruit condensed!
Bu Yu and Wei Gai frowned at the same time.
Isn't it a deep garden of trees and flowers?
What is the Dragon's Sleeping Tree...
Never mind, just spray it first! The eleventh-level dragon breath is enough to tear the field in front of me apart before falling asleep!
Wang Chu threw out a soul card: "Blazing Prison!"
boom!
The flaming vines climbed up the two eleventh-level bodies, but this rare card could only stop them for a moment.
And, at this very moment—a dazzling light has risen from the fruits on the treetops!
Lan Jun smiled.
"Activate the Field Card ability [Sleep Startling] and perform a Fusion Summon using the Dream Soul card on the field as material!"
Fusion!
The materials are - night-wandering gargoyles, night-wandering dragonborn, and the tree where dragons sleep themselves!
The target to be summoned is naturally——
"Come out, eighth level—" Lan Jun waved his hand fiercely, "Burial Bluestone Flower Ancient Dragon!"
boom!
The dragon's might gushed out, huge rocks rose up and turned into dragon shapes, countless flowers bloomed along the way, and the ancient and vicissitudes of life dragon roar resounded throughout the arena!
【Ancient Sleep】!
Actively fall into a deep sleep, greatly increase defense and enhance [Severe Will] - drag the target affected by the dragon's might into a deep sleep!
The dragon's might swept past, and the two eleventh-level summoned beasts both paused.
Although, there is a huge gap between the eighth level and the eleventh level.
However, the terminals summoned by this fusion summoning method are not comparable to those summoned by synchronization in terms of stability and capability strength.
And the most important thing.
Bu Yu's expression changed.
The "Dragon Sanctuary" where dragons are believed in will be completely restrained by the dragon clan!
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Wei Gai said decisively, "Dragon Light Curse Spirit, use 'Curse Attack'!"
The place cursed by God and the dragon are sworn enemies. Not only will it not be restrained, but it will also stimulate stronger attack power!
However……
"You guys, have you forgotten me?"
Wang Chu raised his head. At his fingertips, in the deep purple magic circle, three abyss crystals were shining.
Bang!
The crystal shattered in an instant, the [Final Ceremony] has arrived, and the abyss has descended!
Buzz!
Three crystals cannot completely kill an eleventh-level monster, but—
A deep, dark void opened up in the Dragon Light Curse Spirit's chest. The abyss, powerful enough to annihilate all products of soul energy, devoured it without mercy. By the time the abyss vanished, half of the Dragon Light Curse Spirit's body had vanished...
And the "curse attack" that he was about to release was naturally interrupted.
