My Stubborn Soul Card Follower
Chapter 865 - 512: Those Who Hate Their Decks Will Receive No Response (Part 2)
And in that event, the players’ enemies were precisely those shipgirls who became the Deep Sea after sinking. The more ships you had sunk in the game, the more numerous and stronger the adversaries you would encounter in this event.
During that time, Shen Sui, along with many players, was on the game forum just watching the drama unfold. Occasionally, players who had sunk their ships would come and lament, saying that as soon as they entered the event, dozens of max-level Deep Sea came out, and before his fleet could even deploy, they were all wiped out.
And the Deep Sea transformation could also happen to the Soul Cards of a Life Card Master.
And the opponent Shen Sui faced now was a classic shipgirl deck that had undergone Deep Sea transformation.
The girl across from him was evidently a Deep Sea, but the followers she initially summoned in the duel were the standard shipgirls.
As she summoned followers, her face occasionally revealed expressions of disgust and envy.
Unlike the native Deep Seas, those shipgirls transformed into Deep Sea harbor strange emotions towards shipgirls.
Perhaps due to a convert’s fanaticism, these transformed Deep Seas have a deeper disdain for shipgirls and their commanders.
Upon seeing the expression of disgust on the girl’s face, Shen Sui knew immediately.
No matter if this Deep Sea was using a third-tier Life Card Master’s shipgirl deck or a ninth-tier fully constructed deck, she could no longer achieve victory in the duel.
Because many of the Life Cards in a deck are self-earned by the Life Card Masters, there’s a genuine bond between the deck and the Life Card Master in Life Card Duels.
Just like when Shen Sui started, even though Alice hadn’t advanced to a high-level Extraordinary, and his deck construction lacked many components, his performance in duels remained impeccable.
It was because of his bond with the Life Cards that he could often have key Life Cards like Alice and the Golden Ship in his hand within the first few rounds.
The Deep Sea Girl, while deploying, was also watching Shen Sui, as he had three facedown cards on his field.
However, when she saw the expression on Shen Sui’s face, the calmness in her heart instantly turned to panic.
That expression was clearly like watching someone walk towards their death.
Could there be something wrong with my strategy?
The Deep Sea Girl subconsciously looked over her field again but found no issues.
What is going on? What exactly is wrong?
Why does he have such an expression? Did I do something wrong?
"Hating your own deck so much will not earn you your deck’s response." As the girl panicked, Shen Sui slowly said, "This is the first lesson I’m teaching you about Life Card Duels."
"What?" The girl didn’t understand.
Shen Sui stopped talking and opened one of the facedown cards, slowly saying, "At this moment, I activate the Spell Card [War Drill]."
"All followers on the field engage in random battles until there is only one or no followers left on the field. The battle destruction caused by this method will not inflict battle damage."
The girl’s pupils rapidly contracted.
Shen Sui activated this card with precision, just as she had exhausted her Soul Points and used up all the follower resources in her hand.
Under the effect of [War Drill], the shipgirls on the girl’s field started a chaotic battle.
Amid the sound of cannon fire, one by one, the shipgirls were destroyed by their own allies’ attacks.
The girl’s luck seemed unfortunate; the last two followers she had left both had the same Spirit Value.
With the sound of the cannons, they were both destroyed in battle.
Looking at the empty field, the girl’s pupils momentarily lost focus.
All the destroyed shipgirls were without exception her former comrades.
"It seems they are unwilling to fight for you." Shen Sui’s calm words inflicted the heaviest blow to the girl.
The girl was dumbfounded for a few seconds.
As Shen Sui was about to remind her to mind the turn time, he suddenly heard the girl’s muttering.
"Why... why..."
"Clearly, I’m the one who was betrayed!"
The girl’s once-delicate face twisted.
Shen Sui was startled by the sudden change in expression.
It’s common to have a change in expression during a duel, but he had never seen a Deep Sea Girl’s face become almost unrecognizable.
He was puzzled. How did a few casual comments make her emotions collapse directly?
The girl was gesturing wildly, shouting something.
Though loud, Shen Sui barely caught any useful information.
But that fury quickly turned into a tearful lament of despair.
This left Shen Sui feeling slightly awkward.
The opponent seemed solely focused on venting her emotions, completely disregarding the passage of time.
For the rest of this turn, the Deep Sea Girl made no moves.
It was Shen Sui’s first time experiencing the frustration of burned clock time in an offline duel.
At this point, even Shen Sui, as slow as he was, could sense the sad story hidden within this Deep Sea Girl.
"Perhaps we can make a deal." Shen Sui casually disabled the external audio feature and said, "That soul within you seems to have some vitality left. If you release the possessed girl and return to your world, I can allow your surrender..."
"I refuse."
Now it was Shen Sui’s turn to be dumbfounded.
What? She should know surrendering could save her life, right?
"If you surrender, you can live."
The girl finally looked up, laughing frantically, pointing to her face, and said with a smile, "But this woman deserves to die more."
Could it be...
Shen Sui’s thoughts sank.
Cases like Lin Zhen’s were never isolated in the real world.
The girl in front of him might be another victim of the exploitative card farming.
Damn, it feels like if I really continue, I might lose my moral ground.
But quickly, Shen Sui discarded the burden in his heart.
If he cared so much about morality, he should have ended his life long ago.
In many Soul Card World-related games, Shen Sui often advanced by purely selfish and underhanded means.
With this thought, Shen Sui did not hesitate, flipping over the Spell Card to start his play.
The girl seemed to have given up entirely.
She knew that even if she tried to resist, her deck wouldn’t cooperate.
With the Knights’ charge, her Life Value was completely wiped out.
Death beckoned to her.
Her body rapidly began to disintegrate.
A beautiful Life Card slowly drifted down from where she had been standing.
Shen Sui walked up and casually picked up the Life Card from the ground.
With a swift [Recovery], he cradled the remaining soul within the Soul Card.
At this moment, high above, the little insect Antipus opened her eyes.
This was the world she had woven. As the creator, she could naturally perceive which rules were being utilized within this realm.
The rule of life and death resurrection exists in every world.
However, some worlds allow resurrection, and others view it as a taboo.
To prevent these Extraordinaries from having contingencies to leverage between life and death, Antipus did not allow resurrection.
But when she saw that the caster of [Recovery] was Shen Sui, she silently closed her eyes again.
There are always some people who can transcend the rules.
Shen Sui flipped the Soul Card in his hand.
[Destroyer · Zhu Yue]
That was the name of the Soul Card.
Hmm, I’ve decided to have you become Alice’s starting shipgirl in the shipgirl world. I’m sure Alice would be happy to hear your grievances.
Thinking this, Shen Sui casually inserted the card into his Dueling Device.
However, when his hand touched the Dueling Device, he felt an unusual vibration.
Shen Sui immediately knew it was the vibration for acquiring a new form.
He quickly opened the Dueling Device and looked intently:
[Alice has conquered the Sun Prison.]
[Ding! Your Soul Card has acquired a new form: Innate Escape Saint Body · Alice]
