After the Engraved Seal is activated, it is valid for ten seconds.
During this period, Lin You's continuous card linkage only took about two seconds.
This includes the activation of the Black Necklace.
At this stage, duelists have a waiting interval of 30 seconds to summon monsters, but the activation gap between monster cards, magic cards, and trap cards is very small.
However, when magic and trap cards are successfully activated and have specific effects, there are differences in speed.
It takes about one second for equipment magic cards like the Black Necklace to take effect successfully.
Proliferation takes longer, but usually within two seconds.
Trap cards are different. Trap cards take effect almost instantly. Among magic cards, only cards such as quick-attack magic cards can compare with the speed of trap cards.
The difference in card effectiveness speed may not be obvious at this stage, but in high-intensity duels, a slight speed lead often becomes the key to winning the duel.
At this time, the Seal of Moment is still effective for eight seconds.
Although Zhang Cheng didn't understand what was going on, he probably guessed that it must be related to the chains inserted into his soul barrier.
And those chains were obviously caused by the effect of that trap card.
Even if you don't know what the specific effect is, it is not a permanent trap card and the effect will eventually end.
The most important thing now is to drag the effect.
Whoosh.
The Phantom Beast King stepped forward and approached quickly, putting pressure on the swordsman of fire.
Suhu!
The two swords came together in the hands of the swordsman of flame, drawing a half-moon arc from the lower left to the upper right, and hot flames surged out.
These flames forced the Phantom Beast King to pause slightly, jump suddenly sideways and change the direction of travel, and the hair on his body felt a little sticky.
The flame swordsman, whose whole body was bathed in flames, made the air in this place feel a little more scorching.
call out!
While the Flame Swordsman slashed out his double swords to temporarily drive back the Phantom Beast King, a sea-blue magic bullet blasted out, signaling the arrival of the Silent Magician's attack.
The magic bullet was extremely fast and got stuck when he was retracting his sword.
The Flame Swordsman's expression remained unchanged. His hands instantly changed from holding the sword in his forehand to holding it in his backhand. He leaned over slightly and raised both swords at the same time. A whirlwind of flames spread out, carrying his body and appearing in mid-air in vain.
.
Combat skills, Dengyan!
The flames set off by this move almost helped the Flame Swordsman escape the bombing range of the magic bullet, but at this moment, the Phantom Beast King followed and jumped high, even appearing above his head.
Without giving the Flame Swordsman any time to adjust, the cyclone condensed in the hands of the Phantom Beast King, and a claw tore his head cleanly.
Fantasy hunt!
Flames suddenly swayed in mid-air, and the Flame Swordsman was shattered on the spot.
At this moment, there are still two seconds left to seal the moment.
Whoosh!
The Silent Magician finished with a perfect magic bullet, injecting magic power into his body. Zhang Cheng tried to move out of the way, but the distance was limited and he couldn't do such a difficult dodge at all.
boom!
The sound of bombing sounded, and Zhang Cheng's soul value was cleared directly to zero.
The whole process takes nine seconds!
While the engraved seal was in effect, Zhang Cheng was defeated directly.
This, this is eliminated?
Zhang Cheng's brain was a little confused, but the combat supervisor ignored it. He just glanced at Lin You more and announced: "No. 777, Lin Yousheng."
Only then did Zhang Cheng react and looked at Lin You helplessly, "You're so unlucky. With your strength, you should just enter the main competition."
Lin You smiled and said nothing more.
Immediately afterwards, he returned to the auditorium and scanned the area corresponding to the duel. After a while, he discovered Yi Zhiqing hiding in a higher place.
He waved his hand over there, not caring whether the other party saw him or not, he just said hello, and then left the place.
In the preliminaries, there were no duels that deserved special attention.
Regarding opponents, it is also difficult to find specific research objects.
It's not all about strength.
What's more important is that there are too many people and we are not familiar with them yet.
In this case, is it possible to have a panoramic view of all the games?
It's not realistic. If you have the time, you might as well consider checking out the local Duel Forum in Bird City. You might be able to find some valuable information there.
After leaving Area C, Lin You rushed towards Area E where Liu Jun was. This guy was in the third game and probably hadn't started the duel yet.
As a contestant, Lin You naturally watched the competition for free.
After finding the place, it didn't take long before I saw Liu Jun in the auditorium corresponding to Duel Arena No. 7.
This guy was so interested in watching the duel below that he didn't even see Lin You walking over.
Lin You walked over and patted him on the shoulder, "Niu Zi, what game is this?"
Liu Jun was suddenly tapped on the shoulder, and was startled. But when he saw it was Lin You, he couldn't help but said: "Lin You, you are so fast."
"Is this fast?"
Lin You was slightly ashamed. If the guy in front hadn't been playing bladder games, he would have come out long ago.
"This is not fast, our second game has just begun." Liu Jun said.
In fact, the matching mechanism of this Graduation Cup is still very good. The players on both sides are basically evenly matched, and the duel duration is generally longer.
It is very common to take 20 to 30 minutes, but blitzes of one to two minutes or even faster are rare.
…
It was almost 11 o'clock when Liu Jun's game ended. On the way back to the hotel, this guy was already grinning from ear to ear.
He won.
After fighting fiercely with the opponent for dozens of minutes, both of them exhausted their magic power.
With the toughness of those beast-warrior monster cards, they just beat their opponents to death.
Although the opponent's duel strength is relatively average, he is still qualified to participate in the Bird Capital Graduation Cup. Winning the game is not easy.
Liu Jun's mentality was very calm.
If you lose, you won’t lose money; if you win, you will gain blood.
If we win two more games, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to celebrate with champagne.
After returning home, the two of them had a free buffet at the hotel at noon, and then went back to their rooms to rest.
The afternoon game starts at two o'clock, so there isn't much time for rest, so you still have to hurry up.
As for magic power, the organizers specially prepared a ‘source of magic power’ potion for the players.
Lin You used this potion in the duel class. It can restore 150 magic points in one hour.
Although the organizers were stingy with the prize money for the final winner, they were still very concerned about the quality of the competition.
Of course, this potion is not too expensive, a bottle costs about one thousand yuan, but the effect is very good, but the recovery speed is a bit slow.
In addition, this potion cannot be taken continuously within a day. Continuous use may affect the natural recovery of magic power.
Even more serious is the obstruction of magic power.
…
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Lin You, who was full of energy after taking a nap, arrived at Huiyao Arena.
The area is still the same, it is still Area C, but the venue has changed to Duel Ground No. 6, and the one who appears quickly is the first one.
This time my opponent is a short boy.
Sadly, the opponent's total magic power was significantly different from Lin You's, reaching over 30 points.
Lin You was a little suspicious. This was the result of deliberate manipulation by the organizers.
Although there is a temporary bye rule for those with more than 180 magic points, in fact, all contestants with a total magic power of more than 160 points will be able to enter the main competition without any accident.
The so-called accident was nothing more than a collision between two contestants whose magic power was over 160 points.
The organizers may not want to see such a situation, so they simply let this group of people be matched with contestants who have little chance of entering the main competition.
The 30 points difference in magic power is not just in terms of magic power, but a gap in all aspects.
In particular, the training intensity and linkage of the cards, and the contestants with deep magic power, are much higher than ordinary people.
When the magic power gap becomes more obvious, usually only the quality of a single card can turn the situation around.
But in fact, duelists with high magic power often have better card quality.
Facing this opponent, Lin You didn't put much effort into it.
Still using the carved seal as a wedge, relying on the combination of Silent Magician + Phantom Beast King to suppress.
This time, he won easily without even using the black necklace.
The current preliminaries, with Lin You's strength, are like a wolf among the sheep.
