Chapter 216: 216 Mount Flower VS Temple of the Gods 11 Temple of the Gods has typed GG_1
Of course, without the medicinal protection it had been receiving, the Seven-Star Butterfly now became a sitting duck.
As the Sirens’ singing continued, Chen Runyu felt his spiritual power faltering, even though Oneri had already departed.
Wen Jiang’s Ghost Wood prolonged its state for a while longer. But Ghost Wood had been active for so long that Wen Jiang herself was likely nearing her limit. Chen Runyu understood her intention.
He immediately made the Seven-Star Butterfly pollinate, and flowers bloomed right before Circe and the others.
Shi Qi followed this floral path. Changer, as if she had grown eyes, ascended rapidly, crying as she drifted towards the Cold Palace on the Moon. A huge silver moon appeared in the sky. Changer accurately discerned Clueless Dame’s path and simultaneously imposed a negative status on everyone present.
Deimos’s dense fog had also descended. His fog now covered a broader area, aiming straight for Hou Yi!
Although they had discerned Clueless Dame’s route, they were facing an Assassin Card. Lamia had already swung and missed. The Sirens’ damage chased after the Jade Rabbit, and Eros could only spare glances to keep an eye on Clueless Dame.
Realizing her life was in danger, Circe decisively threw her last powerful control Skill at Hou Yi.
Lamia disappeared instantly.
And Oneri, who had earlier left the Seven-Star Butterfly’s body, hesitated for a moment and said, "...I’ve been disrupted."
Yes, it had been disrupted.
God knows how Dandelion discovered it while it was invisible. Unlike the smaller, split Dandelions, its disruption and blinding effect lasted for a full three seconds.
The assassin player hadn’t taken a fatal blow, but he had also been within the Seven-Star Butterfly’s encirclement for a long time. His spiritual power was also being sapped, and he couldn’t last much longer. But this time, Circe proactively shifted the target to Hou Yi, so he was about to command Lamia to coordinate a strong attack on Hou Yi. They had already approached Mount Flower. This was their last chance.
Similarly, Chen Runyu’s Seven-Star Butterfly, which had not been struck by a killing blow, also found its opportunity.
It was one thing when they weren’t close, but ignoring him completely now? That was too much, wasn’t it?
The entirety of Mount Flower was within the Seven-Star Butterfly’s encirclement. Its flowers had bloomed almost sufficiently. The Seven-Star Butterfly, barely surviving the damage, successfully attached itself to a Card Spirit from the Temple of the Gods. Chen Runyu hurriedly absorbed the last wave of spiritual power from the Temple of the Gods before his own Card Spirit disintegrated. This absorption directly finished off Oneri and Circe; three cards perished together.
The instant Lamia disappeared, Ghost Wood’s branches suddenly spread wildly towards Hou Yi’s card. The numerous Dandelions surrounding them abruptly split into dozens of smaller ones, crashing into the Temple of the Gods’ cards.
Zero Egg: "Host, you’re really giving them face by not splitting a hundred Dandelions."
Eros’s expression changed dramatically as many Dandelions headed straight for it. The Little God of Love flapped its wings, trying to dodge the Dandelions, creating a momentary opening.
Lamia appeared before Hou Yi. Hou Yi didn’t even try to dodge as she swung her sword.
But then Lamia saw that Hou Yi had already nocked an arrow.
Deimos’s attack...
No!
The player’s pupils contracted violently. Deimos’s corrosive fog, just as it neared Hou Yi, was instantly and completely consumed by two Dandelions.
[Damn, what a freak! How did they manage to absorb that?!]
[Is this Dandelion a disruption card or a Defense Card?!]
[I declare, Temple of the Gods is G.]
[Lamia has called GG.]
[????]
[? Is this a move a human could pull off?]
[Congratulations to the Broken Heart Association for securing second place ahead of time!]
[To the one ’congratulating’ Broken Heart: Savage!]
The control Skill hadn’t taken effect. At this moment, the player’s hair stood on end because Hou Yi was aiming its arrow at Lamia. At such close range, not even the King of Heaven could save her. With one arrow fired, Lamia was instantly GG.
The Sirens’ singing was also interrupted because Clueless Dame changed direction, focusing on the Sirens, forcing them to pause their attack to dodge.
With their assassin gone, the Temple of the Gods’ offense was crippled. Now, all that remained for them on the field were Sirens, Deimos, Eros, and Changer.
Changer descended from her ascended state. The moment Clueless Dame attacked the Sirens, Changer activated her ability at the critical instant, completely absorbing the attack.
Changer’s defense was still terrifying; she had no problem completely absorbing Clueless Dame’s attack.
But Alva’s face was extremely grim because none of Wen Jiang’s three cards were affected!
Wen Jiang retracted Ghost Wood, as a small courtesy to the Temple of the Gods.
But the members of the Temple of the Gods stared at the Dandelions dancing in the sky, then at Wen Jiang, who smiled as she nocked another arrow.
The substitute controlling Eros had never played such a constrained match.
Eros and Deimos were now the only cards on the field that could potentially control Hou Yi. But those Dandelions, as if they had eyes, kept flying towards Eros.
Deimos had to help Eros deal with the Dandelions because Changer and the Sirens couldn’t spare the effort.
He had never felt so tied down in a match. He was extremely frustrated, unable to understand how he could be so pressured by an A-Rank Card that wasn’t considered particularly strong.
The Temple of the Gods’ team members knew that blaming the substitute now was pointless. They could all see the tricky angles from which Wen Jiang released her Dandelions.
Even more terrifying was her vast spiritual power, which hadn’t yet reached its limit, even while managing three lines of operation simultaneously.
TSS—
When another arrow struck the Sirens, it practically declared the end of the match.
With the Temple of the Gods having no offensive cards left, Mount Flower still had Jade Rabbit, Clueless Dame, Hou Yi, and Dandelion—one offensive card and one assassin. Shi Qi felt he had never fought a battle with such an overwhelming advantage!
When the swirling Dandelions once again obscured his vision, Eros knew another teammate had fallen.
Turning his head, he saw Deimos was gone.
Now only Changer and Eros remained.
In this match, Eros, the card most likely to counter Hou Yi, had become completely useless.
The substitute controlling Eros could already imagine the reception awaiting him back home.
He closed his eyes and let out a pained sigh.
They hadn’t lost to Mount Flower; they had lost to an utterly freakish player.
In the end, Wen Jiang and Shi Qi, one after the other, took down Eros and Changer.
Of course, Wen Jiang, merely going through the motions, retracted the Dandelions at the very end.
She had taken down both cards, and still, no one could fathom her limits.
Mount Flower, fighting seven against nine, had ended up obliterating the Temple of the Gods, with three of their own Card Spirits still active.
The moment the match ended, Tang Qian couldn’t help but let out a scream.
Screaming alongside her were the dozens of staff members who had accompanied Mount Flower to Card City.
Wen Jiang withdrew Hou Yi and gazed towards the Temple of the Gods’ members. Their pale faces were turned in her direction. Wen Jiang’s lips curved into a smile as she said,
"A delightful match. Let’s play again next time."
Temple of the Gods: "..."
