Let you print cards, not let you kill gods

After successfully attracting the Lord of the Deep Sea, Alice's trip to World No. 8 has almost completed her mission perfectly.

When she was about to wake up and leave, there was an episode: a group of refugees were driven out of his territory by Alice's nominal cousin and rushed to Alice's territory.

Alice was worried about the lack of labor, so she naturally accepted all the orders, and then learned a new piece of news from the refugees: a group of refugees composed of a large number of low-level craftsmen and farmers were trapped on a plain in the north near the sea.

Alice, who was worried that there were no craftsmen, was determined to eat these craftsmen, but the destination needed to cross three other people's territories from her territory, so Alice decided to use the newly established maritime advantage to take the goods by sea. This group of refugees.

Of course, this is more of a minor subplot for Alice.

After doing all this, Alice was about to wake up from her dream.

At this time, the last few competition days of the Huashan Invitational Tournament are about to begin.

Different from the previous arrangement, the finals of the three levels are divided into three days. Category C competition is a civil war between domestic players in China, and the result is not much surprising. However, regarding the discussion of Category B competition, the audience has expressed their opinions. It can be said that it is the most discussed competition.

The showdown between the strongest destiny card master of the new generation in the United States and the strongest destiny card master of the new generation in China.

When Shen Sui saw this name, he subconsciously felt that someone was trying to flatter him.

Although the life card masters who had competed with him were basically convinced by him and knew that Shen Sui had strength far beyond his rank, for many viewers, Shen Sui, as a player who had just entered the profession, although professional He has maintained a complete victory in his career, but the number of games has been too few, and many people are not sure whether this is a flash in the pan or whether he has real strength.

But at this stage, there are not a lot of doubts about Shen Sui, the strongest life card master of the new generation, and everyone is silently waiting for the end of the final.

It is conceivable that once the final is over and Shen Sui loses, he will face a tsunami of "liquidation". Whether it is Yang Lijuan's fans, Zhou Keji's fans, or Araguan Yingxue's fans, they will all be severely punished. The ground performed some output on Shen Sui.

Although Shen Sui never cared about this, he was still very depressed.

hateful! You guys have already blown me away, why should I brag?

Therefore, when being interviewed before the game, Shen Sui didn't know what to say in the face of constant criticism from various media.

"Excuse me, player Shen Sui, what are your expectations for this game?"

"Ah, I don't have any expectations. After all, it's not an important championship."

"Are you saying that you are not confident in defeating Sezer?"

"Ah, then I'm not that good, am I?" Shen Sui scratched his head.

"Uh." The reporter was choked by Shen Sui's words and didn't know what to say for a moment. Fortunately, he was very professional and immediately changed the subject and said, "Some people say that you are the most powerful among the new generation of China. Card Master, what do you think of this?"

The reporter's eyes widened, expecting Shen Sui to say something youthful and energetic.

Shen Sui was also waiting for reporters. He knew very well the way the media worked. In the end, they would all take quotes out of context to create breaking news. So let me make a prediction:

"I think it's inaccurate and the words "new generation" should be removed."

When the reporter heard the word "inaccurate", he was very disappointed and followed the designed words and said: "Ah, then you are really modest?"

Suddenly, he felt that this sentence was wrong.

If you remove the "new generation", wouldn't you be the strongest life card master in China?

Damn it! Even You Wenqi wouldn't dare to speak like this, right? !

Shen Sui tilted his head, looked at the reporter, and asked with a smile: "It's almost time, I'm going to enter."

After that, regardless of the reporters who were stunned, he walked into the venue with his legs up.

"What you just said was too arrogant." Aragaki Tanchun followed Shen Sui and said lightly behind Shen Sui, "You will definitely be criticized as soon as this interview is published."

"In the duel arena, strength speaks for itself." Shen Sui said, "If I hadn't been blocked by this guy, I wouldn't want to participate in any media interviews and cause trouble to myself."

Of course, if we really want to count the current record, Shen Sui's casual boast is also tenable.

He defeated You Wenqi, the number one player in China.

Tan Song, China's current life card master with the best results in the world championship, has won.

He also defeated An Hai, the most popular ninth-level life card master in China.

Of course, Shen Sui doesn't really feel that he can be so arrogant after defeating them once. The life card duel changes rapidly, and even if he faces the same deck, the outcome of the two duels is likely to be opposite.

Shen Sui quickly put the interview behind him.

All he could think about now was simulating a duel with César.

Although Sezer is not necessarily the strongest fate card master Shen Sui has encountered since his debut, there is no doubt that he must be one of the strongest fate card masters Shen Sui has encountered in the professional arena.

His playing style is actually very similar to Yang Lijuan's. They both block the opponent's card slot, but the difference is that he can use the opponent's card slot as his own.

It is precisely because of the closeness of the two playing styles that Yang Liqun suffered such a disadvantage when facing Thieas. After all, when Thieas had nothing to do at home, he spent all day studying how to beat his younger brother.

And Césaire is also really tough. Even though he was tortured and killed by Thiese countless times, he never escaped from a duel with Thiese, and even took the initiative to challenge Thiese.

"Speaking of it." Shen Sui was making preparations for the game, looking at Aragaki Tanchun who was constantly emphasizing Sezer's key life card to Shen Sui, and said, "Does the world of duelists all have similar characteristics? Why do you feel like there are so many brothers or sisters in this world?"

Not counting Vivian, who was interfering with her, Shen Sui's known brothers included Anhai Anyang, Tiese, and Sezer, and Aragaki Tanchun in front of him was the most standard sister.

"That's because life card duels are often in the form of families." Aragaki Tanchun said casually, "The characteristics of the soul card world have led to the fact that if a life card master wants to develop stably in the soul card world, he needs to have stability in the soul card world. A trustworthy relationship, family and bloodline are the most stable. Domestic dueling families dominate professional competitions, don’t you think that this problem does not exist abroad, right? It’s just that every year they make outrageous manipulations of life cards, which makes people ignore this It’s just a problem.”

"Okay." Aragaki Tanchun closed the notebook in his hand and hammered Shen Sui's chest with his fist, "I have done everything I can and should do, and the next step will depend on your own efforts. If this If you still can’t defeat César, then I won’t take the blame for you then.”

Many well-known professional players, after losing a key game or unexpectedly losing a game in an upset, will blame the blame on their coaching staff in order to maintain their own value, because the life card master coach also has the title of stable scapegoat.

"Don't worry." Shen Sui checked his deck one last time.

After several days of simulated duels, Shen Sui adjusted his deck construction specifically to deal with Cezer's [Starship] deck and replaced some of the life cards, at least against the set in Aragaki Tanchun's hand. Simulating the deck, Shen Sui has been able to stabilize the kill even if the opponent's operation is perfect.

Of course, a duel in a live match cannot be compared to a simulated training duel. The mentality of the players and the atmosphere of the scene will affect the progress of the duel.

After a gorgeous performance, the previously recorded conversation between the contestants began to play on the screen.

To be honest, the organizers of the Huashan Invitational Tournament are very professional.

Shen Sui obviously just said a few words briefly, but they suddenly suggested that he was in tit-for-tat with César.

Shen Sui never expected that all the organizer's promotional campaign would be used in the Category B competition. This exquisite and gorgeous performance, as well as the video of the contestants that took a lot of editing and post-production, all proved that Their level of care.

It must be said that the war between China and foreign countries is always a super topic that can attract people's attention.

However, when promoting the Sino-foreign war, it is still necessary to consider the strength of the players on both sides of the competition.

If the two sides are of equal strength and it is unclear who will win or lose for the moment, then it is natural to take a gamble and publicize it to build momentum for the game.

However, if China is obviously on the weaker side, it will not deliberately build momentum before the game. But generally if the dark horse side of China wins this kind of game, the post-game publicity offensive will be very powerful, and it can even form a wave of trouble. God-like offensive.

Although the Category A competition is also a match between China and foreign countries, many people actually don't have much confidence in whether Tan Song can defeat Thieas. Tiese's dominance over the past year is obvious to all, and he once again proved his strength by defeating Yuya Higashino in the semifinals.

Both sides also defeated Higashino Yuya in the game, so naturally there was a clear contrast. Compared with Tiese's victory, Tan Song felt a little bit like stealing the chicken. This kind of initial kill is only useful the first time. Once the opponent is prepared, it will be difficult to play a good role again.

Compared with the Class A match, the match between Shen Sui and Sezer is not much different, at least on paper. Both sides showed dominance in this competition. Event organizers hold competitions just for fame and publicity. Putting so much prize money into the prize pool is definitely not for charity. They always have to create some hot topics.

Therefore, the match between Shen Sui and Sezer became the focus of publicity.

Thanks to the organizer's pre-match publicity campaign, the audience was full and banners supporting Shen Sui could be seen.

However, you can still see some fans of Césaire at the scene, all of whom are foreign friends in China.

As the game time came, Shen Sui came to the duel field under the guidance of the staff.

Under the warm and passionate introduction of the host, Shen Sui stepped onto the stage with his hands raised high.

The audience was very enthusiastic and cheered constantly.

And they were also very friendly and did not leave Czer in the cold. They also burst into warm applause when Czer came on the stage.

Shen Sui looked at the handsome white guy with blond hair and blue eyes across from him, and when he was hesitating whether he should say hello to him in his English that was like burning books and humiliating scholars, Cézer spoke first:

"I'm looking forward to this duel, Mr. Suishen."

well?

Shen Sui was slightly startled, not only because the other party spoke fluent Chinese, but also because of what he called himself.

Sezer seemed to notice Shen Sui's surprise. Although there was not much expression on his face, there was a hint of confidence and pride in his voice: "Mastering the opponent's native language is the greatest respect for the opponent. In American competitions, we have Fate card masters from all over the world, including those from China. I have studied your game videos and found that you are indeed a very powerful opponent, Suishen. I hope you can leave me a good memory of China. "

On the sidelines, Tiese, who silently ran over to watch the game, was surprised when he heard his brother speak fluent Chinese.

Shen Sui and the audience who did not continue to pay attention to Cézer did not know that when competing in the United States, even when facing immigrant players from China, Cézer always only used English to describe his stages and card effects. Even if the other person obviously doesn’t understand English at all.

The duel rules stipulate that players have the obligation to describe the effects when activating them during the game, but they do not stipulate the language used by players to describe the effects.

Therefore, in the early barbaric era of life card duels, many life card masters would specially learn an unpopular language, just to make their opponents unable to understand the activation timing and activation conditions of the card effects they described, so as to continue to deceive their opponents.

Of course, this kind of behavior has gradually become part of the etiquette of the game as the professional life card duel events are gradually becoming more popular. Although the rules do not prohibit it, players no longer use unpopular language to describe their effects. They usually use their own words. mother tongue or international common language.

In other words, in fact, on this occasion, Césaire's use of English to describe the effect of his duel was completely in line with the rules and did not even violate basic competition etiquette.

But he still used Chinese with great respect to confront Shen Sui.

Although Shen Sui could see the effect by himself, this kind of respect and courtesy still touched Shen Sui.

Well, in this case, there should be less traps for him in this duel.

Shen Sui thought to himself.

"The game begins." At this moment, the referee who finished explaining the rules gave an order, announcing the official start of the game.

The eyes of Shen Sui and Cezer suddenly became sharp.

Both sides lit up their dueling instruments almost at the same time.

"The duel begins!"

The turn card starts to pulse.

The first attack in this game belongs to Shen Sui.

"My first strike!" Shen Sui quickly drew five cards from the deck.
