Chapter 167: Can we become more mature by overcoming mistakes?
The effect of Joan of Arc brought all efforts back to the starting point. Helpless Gloria could only ask Saint Charlia and Olvera to launch a direct attack on Tiandis, reducing her basic points back to 8000.
Then cover a card to declare the end of the round.
"It doesn't matter!" Alice was afraid that her duelist's momentum would be frustrated and she would be unable to recover later, so she quickly comforted: "Now we have three 8-star monsters on the field, and my attack power is even as high as 5000, no matter what she summons next
All these monsters are just a matter of a sword. So, the advantage lies with me!"
Before Gloria could answer, Tiandis, who had just drawn a card from the deck, chuckled: "That's hard to say, Miss Alice. You must know that attack power is not the only criterion for measuring monsters. Their appearance is weak.
The monsters may also have tough souls, and as long as they gather their strength, they can create incredible miracles."
"Don't say such ignorant words in front of me!" Alice angrily said: "Strong is strong, weak is weak. The blue-eyed white dragon with 3000 attack points is stronger than the useless cockroach with 500 attack points, and with 5000 points
I am tougher, invincible, and have the strongest teeth in terms of attack power! Do you dare to disobey me who possesses the Holy Sword?"
Lin Ge and everyone were a little speechless. They knew that talented players had committed an old habit again and liked to mock their opponents when they had an advantage. Besides, compared to other people's positive comments, your bullying words are even more ignorant, right?
Seeing that Alice was stubborn, Tiandis did not force it and said calmly: "Then let me prove it to you, Miss Alice."
She glanced at the card she had just drawn, and the corner of her mouth slowly showed a trace of satisfaction: Another core card in this deck finally came into her hands. Perhaps the deck was responding to her.
Call, when the leader is in need, the members of the Witch Society will never let her down, because they know that the leader will not let them down either.
Tiandis added this card to his hand, but was not in a hurry to activate it. Instead, he raised his head, looked at the gray-haired girl opposite, and said: "The duel has progressed so far. In fact, your performance has surprised me. Ge
Miss Loria, because you have never been exposed to similar games before, you can do this just by briefly understanding the rules. Should it be said that you have a strong understanding ability, or that you have a kind of self-taught ability?
Where’s the talent?”
"Of course it's because I, a talented player, am guiding you!"
Someone shamelessly asked for credit, but no one paid her any attention, including Gloria. After being silent for a while, she suddenly lowered her head, letting her bangs cover her foggy eyes, and whispered: "I'll spare you the compliments."
, Miss Tiandis, this is not simply my fault."
This humble statement was in line with the character of the Third Princess. Although Lin Ge was keenly aware that there seemed to be other meanings buried in this sentence, after all, it was not the occasion to ask questions, so he buried this doubt in his heart.
He didn't ask. After hearing this, Tiandis shook his head and seemed to disagree with Gloria's modesty. This was normal. After all, the companions of Her Royal Highness the Third Princess did not understand the rules of duel and basically gave them no advice.
She had made some useful suggestions, but Alice only gave random suggestions. From this point of view, the fact that she could always maintain an advantageous situation was indeed thanks to Gloria's dueling talent.
When others think of this, they will inevitably think of Ringer's decision to insist on letting Gloria play this cassette before the game was launched. At that time, Alice was still yelling and fussing with Ringer. Now comparing the performance of the two,
I can only lament that the young man’s premonition was really accurate.
"It doesn't matter who deserves the credit, Miss Gloria. Anyway, in this duel, your personal ability cannot be ignored." Tiandis said: "Presumably by this point in the duel, you have seen that we are
Are there any differences between the two decks in terms of operation methods and tactical concepts?"
Gloria hesitated, then nodded.
The [Alien Philosopher] deck used by Tiandis and the [Girl’s Sovereignty] deck used by Gloria basically operate by liberating monsters to activate their effects. The difference is that the [Girl’s Sovereign] card
The core of the group's operation is the card "Mercy's Relief - Ringer". All lower-level monsters of the same family have the effects of retrieving Ringers and liberating Ringers to search for their own superiors, and then special recruit themselves by recycling the lower-level monsters of the same family and the Ringers from the cemetery.
Go up to the top and activate various powerful effects to solve the opponent's situation. The tactical concept is to rely on the 8-star monster to stand on the field, supplemented by various simple and crude equipment magic cards to increase the attack power and defense power, and continuously suppress the opponent.
However, the [Alien Philosopher] deck does not have a clear core of operation. The effects of all lower-level monsters are activated after liberating oneself, and are often accompanied by serious side effects that last for a whole duel.
Even if she wanted to recycle these monsters, she would not be able to do so even if she wanted to (the operator's operation restrictions). However, the effects of these monsters without exception have both interference and defensive functions. Therefore, her tactical concept should be to use monsters, magic and traps.
The three lines of defense built by cards can interfere with the opponent's deployment while protecting oneself and continuously consuming the opponent's resources.
But this tactic seems to have no effect on Gloria, because the resources in the [Girl's Queen] deck can be recycled. The lower-level Ringers in the family and the cemetery can be recycled through the effects of upper-level monsters, and when various effects are activated
The price that needs to be consumed is not sent to the graveyard or removed from the game, but directly returned to the deck. For example, the trap card [Blessing of the Ancient Tree] that Gloria just placed on the field can increase her field level.
The 8-level Maiden's Sovereign monster returns directly to the deck when it leaves the field, and then adds a level 4 Maiden's Sovereign monster that is not written on the monster's card name to the hand. In this way, even if Tiandis has cleared it
On her own scene, Gloria can continue to expand by summoning the retrieved monsters next turn.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This means that she has a complete set of card resources at any time, and Tiandis's cards are not recyclable, regardless of whether they are given as gifts.
Except for entering the graveyard or inside, as long as the duel continues and she continues to activate card effects, she will suffer more and more self-suppression, and in the end she may not even be able to use any of the effects.
On the surface, whether it is an offensive and defensive battle to suppress the situation or a war of attrition to exchange resources, the deck of The Three Princesses is more advantageous.
But that's exactly what worries her the most.
Because even she can see things, can Tiandis not see it? But she still looks calm and unhurried, which shows that there is indeed some back-up in that deck that she relies on.
Ace, right?
"These two decks are the embodiment of our thoughts. Therefore, the operation method and tactical concepts of the deck can essentially be considered as the different beliefs and paths of the two duelists." Tiandis suddenly said.
: “You cherish your companions and rely on their strength, but you don’t want your companions to be sacrificed in battle. This idea is reflected in the [Girl’s Sovereign] deck, which continuously returns monsters on the field and graveyard to the deck.
Sometimes we would rather give up a better way of playing in order to protect them from any harm. I have to say that this is a very naive idea and very fragile."
"But we are different. We also cherish the emotions between like-minded partners, but we also deeply understand that no ideal in the world can be realized without making sacrifices, sacrificing good wishes and sincere feelings.
, and even sacrifice all the joys and sorrows since the birth of life... Compared with this, sacrificing life is already the smallest price. But if the ideal is not out of reach, then this kind of sacrifice will be meaningful."
"Therefore, the members of the Witches' Society have always been unswervingly on the path of pursuing their ideals and sacrificing themselves. Dante, Martin Luther, Lenoir, Barbarossa, Napoleon, and Joan of Arc——"
She counted the names that were still fresh in her memory one by one. Behind each name represents another name that has been forgotten. When a person vows to erase his own existence from the history books and live in the hearts of the world with another identity
At that time, there was no sacrifice that could scare them: "Galileo fell on the observatory he built with his own hands, Plato died on the eve of the victory of the Philosophers' War; Barbarossa was killed for supporting the magician in his later years.
To the assassination of the extraordinary, Joan of Arc fell together with her beloved horse in the final battle to liberate the White City; Agricola collapsed in the laboratory from exhaustion while studying the properties of magic-guided metal, and Darius died in
The battle against the pseudo-evil god 'Glory Sigma'... Among the philosophers of the association, only a few have achieved a good death. Despite this, this identity is still the goal that the apostles of the association aspire to pursue. After the annual mid-year meeting, the Special Assessment Bureau will collect
I have seen more than a hundred reports about applying for the philosopher code, why do you think this is, Miss Gloria?"
The gray-haired girl could only remain silent.
"Of course, I'm not saying that sacrifice is necessarily right. The premise is that the sacrifice you make is on the right path, and at least people should see the hope of success. Or, after you make a mistake,
Do you have the courage to sacrifice yourself to correct mistakes?" Tiandis said: "Let me tell you, Miss Gloria, our witch association is not always correct, because in this article, physical rules replace magic rules.
We are also pioneers and explorers on the road, and we will inevitably make mistakes, but we have the courage to face them head-on. People, only by overcoming the mistakes we have made can we defeat our immature selves in the past and move towards a more correct path.
the way."
"If you have a great ideal but are unwilling to make sacrifices to realize this ideal, it means you are not mature enough and do not have the courage to face your mistakes." Tiandis glanced at Gloria, who was present in turn.
Alice, Rorona and Saint Charlia were all on the bed, and finally they were fixed on the green-haired girl. Saint Charya was speechless for a moment, unable to tell whether her words were true or false, and whether they were true or false.
A one-sided theory or a sincere warning?
"It's normal for you to still have doubts." Tiandis didn't care about her silence and smiled casually: "Then, let me show you what the Witches' Association has committed.
Wrong. He is also the most dangerous and difficult enemy that the association has encountered so far, but in the end we still defeated him and, with his blessing, we improved many immature areas in the past. This is the growth brought about by overcoming mistakes.
As for you, you must also try to defeat him, because since you are determined to be enemies of the Witch Society, you must prove that you have that kind of power. It is not enough to just have a passion. If the former subordinates of the Link Society are defeated, they will all be defeated.
If we can't deal with it, how can we stop our great achievements?"
The most dangerous and difficult enemy that the Witches' Association has ever encountered? What mistakes have they ever made?
The girls on the field looked at each other, and before they could react for a moment, a memory suddenly appeared in Ringer's mind: a few days ago, in a dimly lit church, a kind and kind elder sat down.
On the bench, he talked about a period of history in the past, a period of history that ordinary people have long forgotten and buried deep in the years...
"I usually summon, [Untaught Philosopher—Mide]." Tiandis said softly, while gently pressing a card in his hand on the duel disk.
The light flickered, and a woman with long pale golden hair and sea-blue eyes appeared on the duel field. She was dressed very strangely. It looked like a religious-style dark blue robe, but there were patterns on the collar, cuffs and hem.
It resembles gears, springs and metal bearings with brass-colored lines. He also holds a brass scepter made of metal in his hand. The top of the scepter is a miniature steam engine surrounded by six worn gears. It is moving with the night breeze.
The roaring and evaporating hot steam spread like white mist in the night.
However, what is more concerning than her appearance is her name.
"Mechanical Saint..." Gloria murmured: "Mide?"
The first person in history to be refined by the God of Conception, the woman who issued the December Declaration in the May Garland Square, thus opening the curtain of the vigorous Steam Jihad, at this moment, appeared in front of everyone with such a plain attitude
before.
But, it's not over yet.
"Activate the effect of [Untaught Philosopher - Dayang] in the card in your hand," Tiandis showed them another card in his hand: "When there is [Untaught Philosopher - Midai] on your field,
Special summon this card. After this effect is activated, in this duel, the [Untaught Philosopher - Mide] on your field will be regarded as [Mechanical Saint - Mide] in the card name.
[Untaught Philosopher - Dayang] will be regarded as [Knight of Holy Creation - Dayang] in the card name."
Another burst of light flashed, and a young man with long black hair and dark brown eyes slowly walked out. He was wearing brass armor like a medieval knight, but the shoulder armor, arm armor and leg armor were still decorated.
He was wearing the sacred symbols of the Order of Steam such as gears and bearings. In his hands he held an overly large copper-colored giant sword and a copper-cast tower shield shaped like a gear set. On the hilt and tower of the giant sword,
There is a miniature steam engine embedded in the center of the shield. At this moment, the same steam engine as the one on the top of the scepter in Saint Midea's hand is also running low, and hot steam is sprayed out from the exhaust holes.
Time actually distorts the shape of the river water and the air.
Another familiar historical figure stepped onto the stage of the duel.
