Elemental Card King.

Chapter 137 Violent and ruthless, utterly and completely crushing

"The presentation is really quite impressive."

A person's temperament doesn't lie.

In the close-up shot provided by the director.

His imposing figure, simply standing there, resembled a sacred statue forged from light and power, radiating a captivating charm.

Her long, flowing, holy white hair, like a lion's mane, swayed gently in the wind, while her bewitching eyes possessed both the ferocity and decisiveness of a holy lion and a mysterious kindness; these two completely different qualities merged into one.

Wow!
Amidst the surrounding commotion, the Nebula Scepter in Su Chen's hand began to undergo a complete transformation.

While rubbing the knob at the end of the staff with telekinesis.

As it rotates, the prismatic magic crystals on the staff head gradually become sharper and more pointed, like a sharp blade formed from cooled molten lava. It is clearly the tip of a battle spear.

The cloud-like decorations that meander around the main body of the scepter also danced, gradually transforming into a tassel that swayed in the wind, hanging below the spearhead, adding a touch of inexplicable dynamism to the solemn atmosphere.

"Good heavens, an elemental warrior."

"Really? Does the Elemental Master use melee combat tactics?"

now.

Amidst the excitement and astonishment of the crowd, even Cao Zheng, the replicator who had been slumped over until now, couldn't help but sit up straight, his face revealing an excited and curious expression.

On the field.

Judge Gao Jun raised his right hand once more, pointing it towards the distant figure of his opponent.

Upon being struck by his finger, the spiritual energy fluctuations swirling around Su Chen were suddenly suppressed, as if an external force was forcing the Beast Spirit Card back into the card surface.

But as soon as it was suppressed, the swaying fluctuations of spiritual energy became even more intense.

In an invisible confrontation, the external spiritual energy fluctuations that attempted to be restrained were ruthlessly crushed by Su Chen's more refined spiritual control.

"Uh"

Gao Jun let out a muffled groan, his face suddenly turning pale.

"The rebound effect failed."

The silence effect of banning cards using the power of rules is mandatory and will definitely take effect against cards of the same rank.

Forcing the opponent's contract card effect back into the card deck requires testing one's mental strength.

Gao Jun himself had developed proficient mental control through actively honing his divine sense, which gave him the courage to take action.

Clearly, he lost.

Gao Jun never intended for the card to be permanently effective. He only wanted to annoy the opponent once or twice, extinguish his arrogance, and make him impatiently release the card again.

But unexpectedly, his attempt to steal a chicken backfired and he lost the rice instead.

Instead, he lost about 30 units of mental energy out of thin air.

"Miscalculation."

"But it's okay, 7 cards to 5, the advantage is in my hands!"

Seeing that his opponent had used teleportation, Gao Jun took the initiative to attack. Without hesitation, he immediately cast multiple contract cards.

Activate the four-star field effect card, "Land of Order"!
hum!
An invisible network of rules, as dense as a grid, was immediately laid out, drawing a 15-meter radius environmental domain centered on the towering figure.

Despite its relatively narrow range, it's even worse than a Samsung field card.

However, this field card, which also has a Star River card back, can move with you and has extraordinary special effects.

Within this area, the user will receive a 35% damage reduction effect and will gain corresponding resistance when taking any external damage.

For example, continuous physical attacks can cause his physical damage reduction effect to increase continuously.

Similarly, the constant barrage of fire elemental damage will continuously increase his fire resistance.

Furthermore, the higher the external damage, the faster the corresponding resistance will increase, until it reaches a maximum of 99.9% saving throw.

"I hereby declare that all spatial effects are prohibited in this area."

Gao Jun's tone was resolute, and his voice was booming.

Every word and phrase carries unquestionable authority.

As if speaking the law of heaven, with every word becoming law, with the use of the four-star effect card [Revelation of Axioms], an invisible force of rules spread out like ripples, permeating every inch of land and every breath of air in the Land of Order.

The rules of reality in this small world have been rewritten, and all spatial behaviors that attempt to violate or escape the normal rules, such as teleportation, blurring, and jumping, are prohibited.

This card's effect can disable one X-type ability/X-element attribute every half minute. What exactly X is is determined by the user's will.

However, this card must be used in conjunction with the Order of the Land field, otherwise it will not work.

Furthermore, this effect is indiscriminate, and even the user Gao Jun, who is affected by it, is not exempt.

of course.

He didn't suffer any loss because the effect of an ability he couldn't control was simply banned.

hum!
With the activation of another three-star weapon card, [Eye of Sanction], an eyeball-shaped floating object hovered beside Gao Jun.

One effect reveals all of the target's hidden, real, and false clones;
The second effect is automatic tracking and locking onto the target. Once it hits and causes damage, it can even gradually reduce and weaken the opponent's attack power and attributes.

The cards that were just instantly generated all came from the limited-edition collector's pack 'Heart of Order' released by a global giant corporation.

It doesn't stop there.

As the teleporting figure that had just appeared on the far right side of the arena leaped across the center line and was about to approach the highest and most imposing area of ​​the arena.

hum!
The judge immediately activated two more contract effect cards.

The two cards are almost identical.

Gemini Card!
[Restricting Libra], [Banning the Scales]!
And the results are consistent.

This effect restricts a single target from using a single card. It has no specific effect and is not random. It depends entirely on the discretion of the restricted target and lasts for two and a half minutes.

"Now it's 5 against 3."

A cold smile appeared on the face beneath the tall helmet visor. "Since you've come here so aggressively, don't blame me for being impolite."

With his top-tier rule-based talent in the country, he could enhance the effects and casting range of similar cards, forcing the rapidly approaching figure to pause for a moment.

"This is a purely pragmatic style of play, specifically designed for competitions."

"A judge of state would resort to such dirty tricks."

At this moment, the audience became somewhat noisy.

Gao Jun's use of two contract cards that were not displayed in the overall intelligence has indeed caused some controversy, and even the official staff of the organizer frowned in displeasure.

The controversy is too great.

If the Judge's talent can target Contract Cards/Talents/Skills, then this pair of twin cards can only punish Contract Cards of human civilization.

In other words, these two cards are completely ineffective against monsters/summoned creatures.

"This is a card specifically for civil wars. Gao Jun will definitely unbind it and replace the card immediately after finishing his ranking defense match."

Wang Liyang said with a disdainful sarcasm, "The Ancient Dragon's Nest Secret Realm is a place where opportunities and dangers coexist. With true dragons lurking around, no first-tier talent sequence user dares to be careless. It's impossible for someone to enter the dragon's nest with only two useless cards."

In other words, after Gao Jun finishes the Secret Realm Resource Tournament, he may even unbind the cards and replace them with the two cards specifically for internal battles.

"Goodness, if Su Chen's mental control hadn't been so overwhelming that it caused the opponent to fail to bounce back, the situation would probably have been 5 against 2!" Teacher He Yun was also speechless.

but.

A slight smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

According to the authoritative assessment given by Duan Lianqing, a top-level researcher, the chances of the judge defeating Su Chen are not high.

"Come on, let the whole audience witness your violent aesthetics."

No matter how much the opponent planned, they could never have imagined such an extremely violent elemental warrior playstyle.

Inside the venue.

The figure, whose phantom of a sacred lion seemed to be floating outside, decisively abandoned the Contract Guardian Card and Field Card after being suddenly subjected to another round of sanctions.

next moment.

Su Chen's figure flashed again, instantly approaching his opponent's domain of Order.

This territory, which belongs exclusively to the judges, is governed by a completely different set of laws governing reality.

As soon as he arrived, an invisible force of rules immediately seeped in, quickly dissolving him and nullifying all his spatial effects, while repelling his figure beyond the boundary.

despair!
Su Chen landed steadily on the ground, and with a push of his right foot, a pile of rubble exploded where he landed, and his figure shot straight in like a cannonball.

This time, everything went smoothly.

Something is wrong!
At this moment, Gao Jun's eyes widened slightly, clearly shocked by the explosive force of the opponent's physical body.

In order to complement the increased resistance of the Order of the Land, the driving armament he wears is the 'Guardian,' which is the type of armor most favored by armored warriors. Therefore, it is conceivable that his agility is not as high as one might imagine.

Whoosh! !

The 'Eye of Retribution' hovering beside him immediately recognized and locked onto him, and the demonic eye quickly unleashed a gray beam of light, pointing directly at the oncoming figure.

The holy lion figure, which left countless afterimages, did not make any unnecessary evasive maneuvers. After slowing down, a light shield appeared out of thin air in its left hand.

The Light series elemental magic weapon, the Holy Shield of Light!
The brilliant move that defeated Xia He in the final that day.

With his extraordinary combat intuition, Su Chen's holy shield perfectly blocked the attack and triggered a damage parry effect.

Keng!
There was a muffled sound.

The gray beam of light came fast and returned even faster!

The trajectory even shifted slightly, heading straight for Gao Jun's eyes, which were not covered by armor.

"Despicable and shameless!!"

Gao Jun never expected his opponent to have such a move. He immediately covered his face with the heavy sword in his right hand, swiftly and powerfully breaking the counterattack perfectly.

broken! !
His act of covering his face also obstructed his view.

now.

Gao Jun's right eardrum vibrated like a drumbeat, as a powerful gust of wind rushed to his right side, accompanied by a spear thrust that shone with holy light.

Whoosh!
The nebula spear, gleaming with intense holy light, instantly tore through the air and pierced the barrier shield that Gao Jun was hastily activating his guardian card for.

puff!
Under this unparalleled penetrating power, the shield only held for a moment before cracks rapidly spread, spreading from one point to the next, and then disintegrating and exploding in the next instant.

The Holy Light Spear swept through the enemy like a whirlwind, its remaining force striking the joints of the heavy armor.

With a piercing sound of metal cracking, the right side of the towering armor was pierced through, leaving a shocking gaping gash.

This attack was so effective because it was a combination of the three-star elemental bombardment card 'Holy Light Impact' built into the Nebula War Spear, the Holy Lion Spirit's 'Breaking Bomb' skill, Su Chen's own physical strength, and his superb power-generating techniques.

"Hoo!!"

With a furious roar, a magnificent and powerful slash swept across the room.

Swish!
A semi-circular arc swept across the entire right side, the immense impact and destructive power of the strike intertwined and swirled, even creating a vacuum area as it passed by.

However, this domineering and unparalleled slash did not land at all. Su Chen, who had succeeded in his attack, seemed to have foreseen it in advance. After suddenly drawing his gun, he easily created some distance.

The second talent trait unlocked by this judge is 'Judgment Moment', which grants him a comprehensive boost to all attributes, attack range, and attack damage whenever he makes a valid rule constraint.

After successfully satisfying 3/6/9 valid rule constraints, new horror effects can be unlocked at each stage.

Gao Jun has clearly unlocked 3 layers of attack effects, this is 'Annihilation', once it hits, the damage will ignore part of the target's armor and resistance, and deal true damage.

pity.

This powerful counterattack missed its mark entirely.

"Uh"

Gao Jun let out a muffled groan as blood gushed from his waist wound. He had never expected his opponent's attack to have such an exaggerated and miraculous effect.

The intense pain and injury even triggered the Guardian armor's built-in first aid module.

puff!
A powerful injection of super adrenaline was injected into the body, which completely stopped the spread of pain. At the same time, the Azure Lotus Technique took effect rapidly, and the huge blood hole on the side of the waist began to heal gradually.

just.

The sacred lion, which had just created some distance, suddenly attacked again.

"asshole!"

Gao Jun roared angrily. He had just withdrawn the slashing force of his heavy sword when he was now facing the opponent's attack and pressure.

At the same time, the Little Demon Eye, which has the ability to automatically target enemies and activate its power, will automatically fire gray beams of light every now and then.

Gao Jun learned from his previous experience.

The output power of the Eye of Judgment is increased and the speed is faster after modulation, making it less easy for the opponent to parry back, and even directly causing a shield-breaking effect.

Such high power will result in a longer interval release rate.

"you"

To his despair, his opponent once again succeeded in using the same trick.

Keng!
Another muffled thud occurred.

The gray beam of light ricocheted back once more, its trajectory still aimed directly at Gao Jun's eyes. Damn it!

What a terrible card!

While Gao Jun was roaring inwardly, he also noticed that his opponent reacted very quickly. A wave of outward mental energy appeared on the surface of the Holy Shield of Light. With the combined effect of the mental barrier and refraction, not only did it avoid being penetrated by the shield, but it also turned the tables once again.

This is the advantage brought by proficient-level mental control.

After the counterattack, Su Chen did not slow down.

Swish!
Taking advantage of the moment when the opponent used his greatsword to block and deflect the beam, he suddenly used the Holy Lion Spirit's 'Lion Spin' skill. His figure rapidly changed direction in a series of dazzling movements, gaining a terrifying speed boost.

in a blink.

Su Chen returned to the right-hand position as quickly as a shooting star.

This time, he increased the distance between himself and his opponent, and continued to thrust his Nebula Spear at the enemy's waist wound.

puff!
The wound, which had just stopped bleeding slightly, was instantly overwhelmed by a torrent of fresh blood.

The crack widened rapidly, even splattering out a large amount of blood.

After landing a successful blow, Su Chen, who was already on guard, quickly retreated, while Gao Jun, in his impotent rage, once again turned and swung his sword, leaving only an afterimage in the air.

but.

The second injury was much worse than expected.

"You've stacked up your light-attribute damage resistance, right?"

Su Chen's words echoed throughout this orderly land.

At this moment, a continuous flow of icy light enveloped his body, and his long, holy white hair, like a lion's mane, gradually faded away, replaced by a fox tail phantom swaying and drifting behind him.

After the Ice Fox Spirit completely transformed, a noble and elegant aura instantly permeated Su Chen's entire body.

Along with this, the elemental bombardment card embedded in the Nebula War Gun has also been switched to the ice attribute.

“I have ten elemental attributes, and you’ll be stacking them up for a while.”

His cold and resolute words were like the frost of a winter night, and his words carried an invisible pressure, weighing heavily on Gao Jun's heart.

next moment.

Under the gaze of the other party, which was filled with a hint of fear, the eerie and ghostly ice fox phantom activated 'Swift Movement' and its body left countless afterimages as it rushed close.

broken
Gao Jun's face turned pale; he simply couldn't believe that his opponent possessed such a terrifying and ruthless elemental warrior skill.

Not to mention.

His weapon card was almost completely useless because it was severely countered.

Since no damage was inflicted on the target, the decay effect never took effect even once.

in contrast.

Gao Jun himself had to be on guard at all times, because once he was hit by the gray beam of light that bounced back, he would naturally not be able to avoid the attenuation effect.

This is what it means to be trapped in your own web!
"No, we must make the most of the last bit of power when withdrawing the Magic Eye Weapon Card."

next moment.

Gao Jun gritted his teeth and, after creating an opening to lure his opponent close, immediately activated the contract card [Time of Judgment].

However, the ice fox figure that should have been close by only made a feint, its cold and stern face seemingly mocking him silently.

With divine assistance, the precognitive Su Chen activated another movement technique, 'Fox Shadow Illusion,' leaving behind a lifelike illusion in his original location. His true form then swiftly darted out of the Order Zone, which had a radius of only fifteen meters, as if in a dream.

This moment.

boom! !

The entire domain of the Order Land flickered with gray light, and countless gray rays containing destructive power danced like dragons, intertwining and colliding, frantically filling and echoing every inch of this domain of rules.

That incredibly realistic fox-like phantom clone was mercilessly pierced through.

This ultimate skill effect can only be achieved through the synergy of three cards.

Indispensable.

After use, the Magic Eye Weapon Card will be unable to activate due to overload issues.

If Su Chen, who has been bound by the rules five times, were to appear in the Land of Order, without a guardian card, he would inevitably suffer a severe and near-death experience.

Under the prophetic warning of the soul technique 'Soul Echo', Su Chen, sensing the threat, easily dodged it while at full strength.

This powerful move was wasted.

The timing was completely wrong.

Gao Jun, who was so badly tricked by his own weapon card, only released it in a fit of rage. Logically, he should have revealed this trump card after successfully injuring Su Chen.

"It's 3 against 2 now, are you okay?"

These words were like an invisible sword, piercing Gao Jun's heart.

3. It's someone else.

2. It is oneself.

Gao Jun's Contract Guardian Card was used during the first wave of heavy damage.

The Magic Eye weapon card ruined me; it can no longer be activated.

The ultimate spell card was tricked out again.

Now, only the [Land of Order] and [Revelation of Justice] are still in effect for him.

"13 seconds left!"

Gao Jun grasped at this last straw; there were still 13 seconds left before the next wave of "words become law" could be used to declare a ban on a certain type of skill/attribute within the domain.

All movement speed-enhancing skills must be banned!

But this period of time was too difficult to endure.

Moreover, the other party was well aware of the methods they would use to prohibit him.

so.
To have a big blast before it gets banned.

The eerie and ghostly ice fox Su Chen flicked the Phantom Spirit Card in his hand, his calm and composed demeanor suggesting that he had already seen through everything on the battlefield.

Subsequently.

He gracefully inserted the card into the card slot on his waist with one hand.

Swish!
'Ling Card Admission!'

'Locked: Phantom Card!'

All of a sudden.

The Spirit Armor on Su Chen's body instantly burst out with dazzling light. This super acceleration could not be maintained for more than two seconds, but it was enough to bring his opponent a dark moment in his life.

"what!!"

"No!"

At that moment, amidst the shocked and astonished audience, many players from the National Capital team clutched their heads and cried out in pain.

The scenes before their eyes were simply unbelievable to them.

No one expected that the favorite to win the championship, on whom they had placed high hopes, would be ruthlessly and one-sidedly crushed by this elemental master in close combat.

at the moment.

After the time limit of Su Chen's Illusionary Spirit Card expired, the huge blood hole on Gao Jun's right side waist was completely frozen, which completely killed the effect of the Azure Lotus Technique in restoring and healing it.

Even worse, Gao Jun's left leg was frozen in place by an ice-freezing skill, leaving him unable to move.

Under the ultra-slow-motion playback on the large screen in the air, people could finally see a snake shadow poised to pounce, slithering beneath Su Chen.

"Elemental Harmony!!"

Everyone stared wide-eyed, only then realizing that the opponent had used the dual-elemental intertwining characteristic while in accelerated state, allowing the Water Serpent Spirit's 'Water Tide' and the Ice Fox Spirit's 'Ice Seal' dual-elemental skill effects to work together on the Judge.

If Gao Jun hadn't swung his sword in time, effectively breaking through the annihilating force, the powerful freezing effect from the ice and water skills alone would have been enough to turn him into an ice sculpture.

However, the current situation is not optimistic.

If it weren't for half of his leg being frozen to the ground, Gao Jun's still-healing body would probably have been swaying precariously.

"He's too cunning."

In the close-up shot provided by the director, Gao Jun's cold, metallic Guardian armor was seen with its back's vector propulsion system completely frozen by a surge of ice magic.

This exquisite micro-management is unlikely to be the effect of an Elemental Bombardment card, but rather an application of some kind of elemental control to unleash an ice-based attack.

"It's fine."

“They’ve taken all of this into account, completely squeezing his chances of turning the tide.”

The chances of turning the tide are almost gone.

The coach of the National Capital team closed his eyes in anguish.

"They didn't give us any chance at all."

"There's not enough time; we can't stack the sixth layer at all."

Even without intelligence, a simple online search will reveal that if the Judge stacks the second talent trait 'Judgment Moment' to the 6th level, it will unlock a brand new terrifying trait in addition to 'Annihilation'.

At that time, Gao Jun will receive another 'Great Punishment' effect, gaining a 250% boost to all attributes, attack speed, and movement speed, and resetting all his injuries, becoming immune to any negative effects.

Previously, he had banned four of Su Chen's contract cards using the power of the rules, and issued one rule restriction clause through the Axiom Revelation Card.

In theory, after 8 seconds, the judge can issue another injunction.

He will be able to unlock the 6-layer Greater Punishment effect.

"Gone."

Eight seconds is too long.

now.

Having once again created a safe distance, Su Chen was now exuding the power of wind and thunder. Suddenly, a pair of full-feathered eagle wings unfolded behind him, each feather seemingly carrying the sharpness and agility of the gale.

From his waist down, a shimmering, finely scaled lizard tail gradually emerged.

With the elemental synergy effect, the transformation from the Thunder Lizard Spirit will be completed swiftly.

"I hereby declare: bounce it back!!"

Gao Jun's eyes were bloodshot. The violent wind and thunder brewing not far away made him dare not be distracted in dealing with the frozen ice on his body.

He raised his left hand, pointing angrily at his opponent while desperately trying to prevent the formation of the opponent's dual spirit bodies.

"retreat!"

"Go back!"

bounce back!
Make sure the card effects bounce back into the card.

He himself had no elemental resistance to wind and lightning. This wind and lightning dual-attribute spirit body was good at bursting movement speed, and the opponent's next wave would definitely be to completely eliminate him.

just.

Everything was so ridiculous, so utterly powerless.

In a state of near-madness, his six consecutive rebounds only managed to delay the enemy by a second or two.

In the invisible spiritual battle, Su Chen, in even better condition, still firmly controlled the use of the Beast Spirit Card with superior mental control, leaving his opponent no room for underhanded tactics.

The price Gao Jun paid for his outburst was that his mental strength plummeted to a very low level.

The excessive use of the talent's rebound effect in a short period of time caused Gao Jun's consciousness to go blank.

The person's brain went through a brief period of malfunction.

At the critical moment.

Su Chen moved.

'Lightning Dash'!
'Riding the Wind'!
The dual-elemental spirits unleashed their burst displacement skills simultaneously.

The swift afterimages of wind and thunder were no less impressive than when he was in his accelerated state. With this burst of movement that surpassed the dynamic vision of all the contestants, Su Chen's figure had already closed in instantly, and he had already drawn a Golden Scale Sword that shimmered with dazzling golden light.

puff!
Swept up by the force of wind and thunder, this sword strike was like a golden dragon breaking through the waves, accurately piercing Gao Jun's sturdy armor and plunging straight into his heart.

A tearing and shattering force was also sent in, blasting the entire heart organ, along with half of its chest, apart from the inside out.

Just two seconds ago, after realizing that the tip of the Nebula War Spear was damaged, he cleanly and efficiently switched the elemental magic weapon to the Golden Scale Sword form.

Rapier!

Throw the gun!

Su Chen knew every effective method to break through heavy armor, bit by bit.

"Well!!"

At that moment, Gao Jun, the judge whose chest had been completely shattered, suddenly came to his senses and gasped for breath. But less than a second later, a wave of pain, like a tidal wave, completely overwhelmed his will, causing him to lose consciousness again.

(End of this chapter)
