After dealing with the cards, it was time to reveal the cards in their hands. Simply put, it was a showdown.
The winning condition was to deplete the opponent's HP, and the only information that both players knew was the number of cards they had.
The number, type, and power of the cards were determined by the MP.
Each player could equip an attack card, a defense card, and three strategy cards.
The attack card type mainly increased the power and effect of the card, and also increased the upper limit of the card's attack value. At the same time, it also had various special effects, similar to Buffs.
The defense card type increased the upper limit of the HP value, and also increased the armor value. For example, the Ladybug card that King first converted was a defense card that increased the armor value by five points.
The strategy card, like the Withered Leaf Worm that King and Osiapf used, had the effect of hiding the number of cards in one's hand.
Therefore, both sides did not know the number of cards in the opponent's hand, and the game mechanism itself did not show the HP and MP. The HP would only be shown after the official attack, and the MP would not be shown.
Originally, the Bug Cards game required at least five people to start, but the Bug Cards game that King created only had two players. This meant that King and Osiapf could enjoy the resources of at least five people.
In this regard, King was still at a disadvantage because Osiapf's MP value was higher than King's.
As the Withered Leaf Worm's strategy effect was immediate, the moment King and Osiapf met, they immediately knew that the opponent had used the Withered Leaf Worm and occupied one of the strategy card slots.
"Let the battle begin."
Osiapf floated in the air with a cold look in his eyes.
He had some understanding of the rules of the Bug Cards game. With his excessive MP value, he effortlessly seized the powerful cards of the resource points, and naturally freed up the MP value that could be used for all cards.
If this game was a one-on-one, he could completely crush King with the number of cards in his hand, but he did not act like a nouveau riche. Instead, he planned to defeat his opponent steadily.
A lion would use all its strength to catch a rabbit. This was the most difficult thing to deal with as an enemy.
Osiapf waved his hand, and a card with a sun pattern on the back appeared in his hand.
Cards with the sun pattern were all instant cards that could be used immediately.
A small sword symbol appeared above King and Osiapf's heads, indicating that they had entered the battle.
"Activate Form Twisting Bug, Armor Removal."
Osiapf flipped the card, revealing a black beetle with huge jaws.
Seeing that Osiapf's first card had the Armor Removal effect, Golden Eyes flashed slightly.
The card transformed into a pair of jaws made of golden light and slashed at Golden Scissors.
At this moment, a card with a ladybug pattern emerged from King's body. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a red-spotted ladybug shell and floated in front of King.
Immediately, the golden jaws crushed the ladybug's shell, turned into light spots, and disappeared, and the crushed fragments drilled back into Law's body.
From Kim's perspective, there was only a pile of ladybug shell fragments left in the lower left corner of the box where the tokens were placed. This indicated that the equipment prepared during the token phase had been damaged and could not be replaced before the end of the battle.
At the same time, a heart-shaped pattern appeared above King's head, next to the Arabic number 100.
There was originally a small shield in the heart-shaped pattern with the number 5 printed on it. At this moment, the shield pattern was shattered, and the number 5 disappeared, indicating that King's armor value was gone.
"Very decisive, it's because the margin for error is extremely high, there's no hesitation at all." King thought silently.
In the token phase, he received a ladybug card in front of Osiapf, and the ladybug card is a guard card, which can give 5 armor value when placed in the card slot.
Of course, the ladybug card is the weakest among the guard cards. Even if King raised it, he may not use it because attack, defense, and strategy cards cannot be replaced after the battle begins.
Therefore, there are a total of five card slots for attack, defense, and strategy cards, and it's best to choose the strongest insect card for each card.
Osiapf used Form Twisting Bug at the beginning of the battle. If King did not equip the ladybug card, it would be equivalent to Osiapf wasting a turn and a bug card, as well as the MP consumed.
However, he still used it with confidence, and King's ladybug card was destroyed.
If both sides' MP were to be calculated, it was equivalent to Osiapf using 1 MP to destroy King's 5 MP, which was five times the gain.
This time, Osiapf gained the upper hand.
Even if King did not use the ladybug card, it was not a big deal for Osiapf. After all, his number of bug cards and MP were more than three times that of King's.
"It's my turn, Green Fly, reveal."
King summoned a card with a picture of the sun, and the picture on the front was a fly with a bunch of green compound eyes.
After using the bug card, the fly materialized, and its green compound eyes shot out a green light that covered Osiapf.
[Bug Cards: Attack: 1]
[Defense: 1]
[Strategy: 3]
[Sunlight: 38]
[Droplet: 5]
[Soil: 4]
Under the green light, a row of information was displayed.
This was the reveal effect of the green fly, which could show the number and type of bug cards of the opposing player.
The Sunlight card was an instant effect card, the Droplet card was a continuous effect card, and the Soil card was a turn-based card.
Generally speaking, players would try their best to choose the Sunlight card, because most of the sunlight-type bug cards were attack cards that could be used to weaken the opposing player's HP, and reducing the enemy's HP to zero was the winning condition.
It was clear that Osiapf was not a layman, and the distribution of the various bug cards was very uniform and very standard.
After receiving this information, the green fly shattered and disappeared.
"Heh, heh heh …"
At this time, Osiapf let out a low laugh.
King looked at Osiapf who was laughing inexplicably, and his face was calm.
Osiapf retracted his wings and landed gently on the ground. He looked at King as if he had completely seen through him and said, "Green Fly is the only bug card with a reveal effect in the flowerbed field. There are a total of three resource points, and four cards are produced."
"But when I went there, the resource points were all destroyed."
"You didn't hesitate to delay the token fighter to destroy three of them, and then you left one for yourself."
"Of course, I know the reason why you did that."
"Because you didn't want me to know the information of your bug cards, unfortunately …"
At this point, Osiapf summoned a Droplet card, and his eyes suddenly became deep, and he said in a condescending tone, "Even if I don't use the Green Fly card, I can accurately determine the information of your bug cards."
"17 cards, oh, no, now you only have 16 cards left."
King was surprised when he heard that, and he looked at Osiapf, clapped his hands, and praised, "Amazing, you even guessed that."
In the face of King's praise, Osiapf responded with a cold smile and said, "You don't have to bluff, I'm very sure that this information is correct."
"That's right, your guess is correct. Excluding the Ladybug cards that you destroyed, I have 16 bug cards left."
King smiled nonchalantly, and he also revealed his identity, then he looked at Osiapf and said seriously, "It seems that the 30% of the admission ticket has been used perfectly by you."
"However, I don't think I'll lose."
"…"
Osiapf could not help but be silent when he heard that.
That was right, he did use the 30% of the admission ticket, which was the current MP value in this game, to determine the specific number of bug cards that King had. That was the information obtained through meticulous deduction.
Moreover, he could also roughly deduce the specific distribution of the Sunshine card, Droplet card, and Soil card, but the accuracy was not 100%.
This human's identity was clearly exposed, how could he still be so calm?
As long as a player knew a little about bug cards, they should know that 52 against 17 cards, and he had lost the initiative, the chance of winning was absolutely zero.
Therefore, this kind of reaction was very strange. Was it a kind of extraordinary self-confidence?
[Qilin Powder is the Fountain of Love]
Osiapf did not use cards, but he used telekinesis.
Scale powder that was almost invisible to the naked eye scattered and covered King's surroundings.
That was his ability to read the opponent's spiritual aura based on the flow of Qi.
