“I sought out my goddess precisely to achieve better results. It’s normal for someone of your mindset not to understand, but you’ll see soon enough.” Wang Zhizhen strutted into Leo’s villa, looking smug.
Pang Jinglin didn’t grasp Wang Zhizhen’s meaning, but Wen Xiangjie Master’s sudden visit to Leo gave him a sense of crisis, as if something was about to slip out of his control.
Wen Xiangjie Master and Leo went to the reception room. After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Wen Xiangjie Master got straight to the point.
“I heard that Leo Master is looking for a Mechanism Card that can counter Rebirth. I happen to have one here.” Wen Xiangjie Master took an epic card from her card drawer and handed it to Leo.
Leo took the card from Wen Xiangjie Master with a slight hint of confusion. As he read the card’s description, his pupils constricted, and then an excited expression appeared on his face.
Epic Mechanism Card, Vigilance: When activated, it can forcibly view the opponent’s hand and discard one of their Mechanism Cards.
This was precisely the perfect Mechanism Card he had dreamed of to counter Rebirth, because he knew with his eyes closed when his old opponent would activate Rebirth. It was just that before, he had no means of counteracting it and could only watch helplessly as his opponent smugly activated Rebirth.
Leo could already imagine it: if he got this Vigilance card, he would forcibly confiscate his old opponent’s Rebirth when they smugly tried to activate it, and his old opponent would have a look of incredulous collapse on their face.
Just thinking about it made the corners of Leo’s mouth curl up uncontrollably.
“Wen Xiangjie Master, name your price. I really like this Vigilance card,” Leo said impatiently.
“Coincidentally, I am also very interested in Leo Master’s Scarlet Seal Mechanism Card. I wonder if Leo Master would be willing to part with it?” Wen Xiangjie Master asked.
A look of hesitation appeared on Leo’s face.
Scarlet Seal was his signature card. He wanted Vigilance, but he also didn’t want to give up his Scarlet Seal.
Wen Xiangjie Master naturally understood Leo’s thoughts. She crossed her legs, “Actually, I’m also a little reluctant to part with my Vigilance card. How about we have a fair wager battle, Leo Master? The winning side gets to take both cards, what do you say?”
The winning side gets to take both cards?
Leo’s heart pounded.
This wager was too tempting.
But since Wen Xiangjie Master dared to propose such a wager, then her strength…
Leo carefully observed Wen Xiangjie Master.
She was very young, looking like a Card Academy student.
Although she tried her best to conceal it, a hint of smug arrogance still leaked from her face. One could tell at a glance that she was used to everything going smoothly for her.
He had never heard of any young person from a Card Master family named Wen Xiangjie Master. It seemed she must have come from humble beginnings, with good luck, and gained fame at a young age by acquiring a few powerful epic cards.
However, over the years, he had seen many people who achieved fame at a young age. One could only say that card decks and cards required luck, but also the accumulation of time.
Which of these long-established Card Masters didn’t have a few trump cards that they never easily revealed?
One could only say that these young people were still too inexperienced. Relying on luck, they were invincible among their peers, which made them a bit conceited, thinking they were invincible.
Then he wouldn’t be polite. He was determined to get both of these cards.
“Wen Xiangjie Master, are you sure? If you lose this, you’ll be giving me a valuable epic card for free,” Leo said with a chuckle.
“Sure, sure, of course I’m sure,” Wen Xiangjie Master replied impatiently. “Who said I’m definitely going to lose? I told you, I have some confidence in my strength!”
“In that case, let’s make the wager on the battleground before the battle begins,” Leo said.
Wagers made on the battleground were bound by the rules of the card god. Neither party could violate them. After the battle, the stakes would automatically transfer from the losing party to the winning party.
“No problem, let’s go now!” Wen Xiangjie Master stood up impatiently.
Leo and Wen Xiangjie Master emerged from the reception room and headed to the battleground.
Every villa in the Residential Area was equipped with a battleground.
While Leo and Wen Xiangjie Master were talking, Wang Zhizhen and Pang Jinglin were waiting outside the reception room.
Seeing Wen Xiangjie Master and Leo emerge from the reception room, Pang Jinglin quickly followed them.
He had to find a way to figure out why Wen Xiangjie Master was visiting Leo.
Wang Zhizhen, on the other hand, was beaming with joy, skipping as she followed behind the two.
She absolutely trusted her goddess’s strength. As long as Leo agreed to the duel, the cards in Leo’s pocket would definitely automatically transfer to her goddess’s pocket!
Wen Xiangjie Master followed Leo to the battleground. The two walked to opposite sides of the battleground and made their wager.
“I, Wen Xiangjie Master, put up the Vigilance Mechanism Card as a wager. If I win the battle, I will obtain the Scarlet Seal Mechanism Card from Leo. If I lose the battle, Leo can take my Vigilance Mechanism Card.”
Leo also repeated the terms of the wager.
A golden stream of light suddenly flashed across the Vigilance Mechanism Card that Wen Xiangjie Master held as a wager. This meant that the card had been marked by the card god, so even if the losing party wanted to go back on their word and hide the card, it would be useless.
Hearing Wen Xiangjie Master and Leo make their wager, Pang Jinglin looked at Wang Zhizhen in disbelief.
“You keep calling Wen Xiangjie Master your goddess, and this is how you treat your goddess? Tricking her into putting an Epic Mechanism Card as a wager to battle Leo? Leo is a genuine Card Master, not those fake imposters. Wen Xiangjie Master is bound to lose!”
“You know nothing about my goddess’s strength!” Wang Zhizhen rolled her eyes at Pang Jinglin with disdain. “Just you watch, my goddess can’t possibly lose.”
Seeing that Wang Zhizhen truly seemed to believe Wen Xiangjie Master could win against Leo, Pang Jinglin was speechless.
Indeed, a hater’s meticulous planning is no match for a brain-dead fan’s sudden inspiration.
Wang Zhizhen’s move had really screwed Wen Xiangjie Master over.
An Epic Mechanism Card that could even tempt Leo must be worth a lot. If he got such a Mechanism Card, he would definitely guard it carefully. For it to fall into Wen Xiangjie Master’s hands was truly a waste.
No matter how powerful Wen Xiangjie Master was, she still needed to develop, right? It was only the fifth day of the game dungeon, and Wen Xiangjie Master dared to challenge a genuine Card Master in the Residential Area. She must have gotten overconfident.
Pang Jinglin shook his head, let go of his worries, and prepared to watch the show.
The wager was set, and the battle began.
The usual dice-rolling phase.
The dice in front of Wen Xiangjie Master showed a 6, and the dice in front of Leo showed a 4.
Leo was not surprised by the dice roll.
Indeed, her luck was good. Luck was indeed very important in card battles, but accumulation and experience were equally important.
Unless a person’s luck could be so good that it disregarded all other conditions.
He had never seen such a person before.
