Aiman's first thought was to get rid of Jiang Ran's [Ghost Fire Priest] as soon as possible, but he discovered a crucial problem.
That fortress wasn't just one card, it was two!
She understood why Jiang Ran had put the two cards together; he wanted the Death Knight to protect the Ghostfire Priest!
"Fighting two against one is certainly not a good choice, but you seem to have forgotten something." Ayman took out another [Necromancer] from his hand and played it directly in the same area. "Your lousy knight can't use his abilities in garrison mode, and the priest is a support class. These aren't two combatants, they're two old and weaklings!"
"I'm going to activate my first-stage ability to attack the [Death Knight]!"
As Ayman guessed, the Death Knight will be destroyed by the fireball, and then the fortress will be a one-on-one situation between the Necromancer and the Will-o'-the-Wisp Priest!
In a one-on-one fight between a mage and a support, it goes without saying who will win.
Skills do have higher priority, but since neither of these cards has a priority, the two can only judge the card's combat power based on the artwork on the card!
Before the fireball even landed, Jiang Ran immediately played a card and joined the battle!
That was a [Rotting Giant].
Ayman roared, "What are you doing? My turn isn't over yet!"
“I want to refute you again, Miss Ayman.” Jiang Ran met her gaze with a smile. “There is no such thing as your turn or my turn. This is the second turn, and I can play three cards in this turn. You have the first move.”
"So as long as you play a card, I can play a card, do you understand, Miss Ayman?"
Within the same round, this is a real-time strategy game!
The arrival of the Carrion Giant undoubtedly changed the battlefield on the right side of the fortress. The Death Knight fell to the fireball, but the Carrion Giant stood in front of the Will-o'-the-Wisp Priest, stopping the Necromancer's next move!
Either the tank or the support could probably beat the mage in a one-on-one fight, but unfortunately, it's two against one now!
"Then I'll continue to reinforce my troops!" Ayman got a little carried away and actually took out another [Spirit Flame Bone Dragon] and added it to the battlefield!
Judging from the current cards, [Spirit Flame Bone Dragon] is undoubtedly the strongest card among all the undead cards. As long as the opponent does not activate their ability, it can even take on two or three opponents at once!
The combination of [Necromancer] and [Spirit Flame Bone Dragon] results in terrifyingly high combat power!
Aiman's luck in drawing two [Spirit Flame Bone Dragon] cards in a row is truly off the charts!
"This dragon may indeed be terrifying in combat, but it also has a fatal weakness." Jiang Ran was indeed somewhat surprised that Aiman was able to play a second [Spirit Flame Bone Dragon], but this did not affect his plan.
Immediately afterwards, he played his third card of the round!
This is a Death Knight card that was just drawn by the [Ghostfire Priest]!
The fortress is currently in a state of war, so cards can be placed either in an attacking or defending posture. This means that this [Death Knight] card can activate its ability!
"I'm going to activate my second-tier ability; the target is their [Spirit Flame Bone Dragon]!"
The [Spirit Flame Bone Dragon] consumes a whopping 8/8/9 mana. Ayman already has 2 out of her 8 mana points used for the [Necromancer's] fireball this turn, so her [Spirit Flame Bone Dragon] won't be able to use any skills this turn!
Aiman was extremely anxious. She had wanted her Necromancer to use its Tier 1 ability again to kill Jiang Ran's Death Knight, but the Death Knight was using a Tier 2 ability, which was clearly of higher priority!
The final result was that her [Spirit Flame Bone Dragon] was swapped with Jiang Ran's [Death Knight], which was not the outcome she wanted!
By the way, Jiang Ran has deployed a total of four troops in the right-side fortress, and three of them are still alive. If we're talking about what yields the greatest benefit, it would naturally be the area-of-effect attack ability!
Isn't a mage the very epitome of area-of-effect attacks?
This chessboard will never lack gamblers!
Ayman shouted, "I'm activating the second-tier ability of the Necromancer!"
A whopping 6 mana cost! Please, it has to be an area-of-effect attack!
A meteor shower effect appeared in the sky, and Ayman was overjoyed. She had indeed made the right bet. Now she only needed to watch as all of Jiang Ran's undead soldiers were buried in the fire rain!
"I am about to activate the first-tier ability of the [Rotting Giant]!"
"Why can you activate your ability?" Ayman slammed his fist on the table. "Even your [Death Knight] can activate its ability, which means only attack cards can activate abilities, right? Why can defense cards activate their abilities?"
Aiman didn't see through this, no wonder she dared to be so reckless and use her ultimate move directly. Jiang Ran almost couldn't help but laugh out loud!
"This fortress is still my territory, so is there a problem with me having the [Carrion Giant] stationed there? The [Death Knight] is just attacking your army outside the fortress; from the beginning, they haven't been doing the same thing!"
Imagine the card game as a real battlefield, where the armies of the two sides fight each other. You might discover many unknown rules that way.
This game of the Dead is very interesting. Two people playing just one game will definitely not be able to figure out all the rules, and they may not even see all ten types of dead.
A faint shield enveloped the barrier. As the meteor shower rained down, the shield shattered instantly. Before Ayman could even rejoice, the remaining meteor shower was almost gone, no longer enough to kill all the undead on the battlefield!
Only the support-type [Willfire Priest] perished under the remaining attacks, while the warrior-type [Death Knight] and [Carrion Giant] survived!
Ayman's attack, which consumed all of his remaining mana, only managed to kill one [Ghostfire Priest]. As the [Death Knight]'s greatsword fell, the [Spirit Flame Bone Dragon] was also removed from the battlefield.
The Necromancer was unable to defeat two undead and was subsequently declared dead.
The battle for the right-side fortress has ended with Jiang Ran's victory!
"In the third round, Mr. Jiang Ran will make the first move."
After running out of cards, both players' mana was reduced to zero in the previous round, leaving them with only a pitiful 2 mana points this round.
Jiang Ran looked at the two cards he had drawn this round. One of them was [Spirit Flame Bone Dragon], and the other was a brand new card with a soul in the center of a white mist, seemingly chanting something.
[White Mist Singer] Shield, 0/3/7.
Since there is a type of undead skill that can replenish hand cards, there must be another type of undead skill that can replenish mana. The fact that the first-tier [White Mist Singer] has a mana cost of 0 makes it hard not to speculate.
