Chapter 65 The Letter Butterfly
Chapter 65 The Letter Butterfly
"With Crab Sword King's shield up, the chance of parrying and counterattacking is 50%, and it's effective against groups. What would happen if a group of small fish attacked him? They would all be counterattacked and killed within seconds..."
Zhou Nan imagined a battle between Crab Sword King and Savage King. Savage King could strike 12 times per second, with unparalleled attack speed. However, if he encountered Crab Sword King, he would probably be in trouble. The faster he attacked, the faster he would be counterattacked, and he would probably die from the counterattack first.
Unbeknownst to him, [Invincible Ten Directions] was currently experiencing the exhilarating sensation of being blocked and countered.
In his field of vision, his ever-victorious general was fighting against the Top Shield Crab Sword King, with the clanging of swords frequently ringing out, each clang a parry and counterattack.
The Crab Sword King's parry and counterattack were completed instantly, fast and ruthless, almost once every two seconds, and each time it could deal 161 points of damage to the Ever-Victorious General who had four points of armor.
"-81!"
"Block! Counterattack!"
"-81!"
"Block! Counterattack!"
"Block! Counterattack..."
These are the damage numbers and status messages that appear above the Crab Sword King's head.
The Ever-Victorious General has an attack power of 200. Theoretically, each shot can deal 135 damage to a target with 8 points of armor. However, the Top Shield Crab Sword King not only has 8 points of armor, but also an additional 40% physical damage reduction. Therefore, the Ever-Victorious General can only deal 81 damage to the Top Shield Crab Sword King with each attack, and half of the attack will be blocked!
It's safe to assume that its damage per second is 40!
Although Crab Sword King's attack power is only 100 points, when attacked while in shield mode, there is a 50% chance to trigger a double critical hit parry and counterattack, which is theoretically equivalent to attacking four times in two seconds. Against the Ever-Victorious General with four points of armor, the damage per second can exceed 160!
That's a fourfold difference in damage per second!
Now, the Invincible General's Invincible Buff has only 7 stacks left, and his health is 80,000, while Crab Sword King's health is only 20,000. The two stood and fought for more than eight minutes, and in the end, Crab Sword King narrowly won with 155 points of health, which made [Ten Directions Undefeated] grit his teeth in anger.
"If my ever-victorious general hadn't lost two stacks of his buff, we would have won this game! But this Crab Sword King isn't bad either!"
[Shifang Bubai] As usual, he gave Crab Sword King a bad review and also recommended him to his family friends.
Under his "recommendation," quite a few players from the Justice Family actually entered the card training ground to specifically challenge the Great Demon Chen Batian, the Savage King Hahaken, and the Crab Sword King Gefanqi.
Zhou Nan was unaware that his three cards had already earned him a considerable amount of appearance fees, and he was still combining cards.
"The Crab Sword King is different from the Savage King. Among the materials for crafting the Savage King, the Ice Wolf King is extremely rare, while the main material for crafting the Crab Sword King is the Sword Guard. The Sword Guard can be purchased from the Cave King. If combining the Sword Guard, Emperor Crab, and King Crab guarantees the creation of the Crab Sword King, then the Crab Sword King can be crafted in bulk. Afterwards, using three Crab Sword Kings to craft will always result in an enhanced Crab Sword King. Repeat this a few times, and you'll get the strongest Crab Sword King. Just how powerful would the strongest Crab Sword King be? I'll have to remember this crafting recipe. As for Emperor Crab cards, there don't seem to be many unbound, tradable ones..."
Zhou Nan vaguely remembered that there was a place where you could get King Crab cards, but he couldn't remember exactly which place it was. After all, for the past two months he had been either relying on Angel or on his way to doing so. So he sent a message to [Valkyrie Lin Yun]: "Valkyrie, do you know where you can get King Crab cards?"
"King Crab cards? Let's go crab hunting on the East Coast!"
"Is it the east coast east of Silver City?"
"Not bad, there are often female players having beach parties there. What's up, guild leader? Do you need a King Crab card?"
"Hmm, I'll go crabbing on the east coast when I have time..."
Zhou Nan was overjoyed. Knowing the origin of the King Crab card meant that his plan to become the strongest Crab Sword King would be much easier.
Next, Zhou Nan went to the warehouse to tinker with the cards, and soon returned to the card training ground to continue combining cards.
"【Fire Turtle Thanos】is currently the only card with an active stun skill, so it can't be moved. 【Panda Panmie】is easy to upgrade, so we won't synthesize it for now. We'll keep the remaining three cards from the Four Wilds, in case we can buy the Ice Wolf King card later. Sword Butterfly Qiangfen is a good mount; we can ride it later, wielding a Gatling gun, looking very dashing... The second-rate veterinarian is the only healer. We won't move the nine-star cannonman and the nine-star mutated bloodline murloc, nor the two murloc warrior cards. We'll keep twelve bloodline murloc cards as cannonballs, and use the remaining cards for synthesis..."
Zhou Nan organized his thoughts, then took out the card and placed it in front of him.
His current card-combining materials include three God's Believer cards, three Little Devil cards, ten Mysterious Butterfly cards, two Emperor Crab cards, one King Crab card, and forty-seven Heroic Bear cards!
"Once you're over level 10, you can't farm Guardian Kassana anymore. It's about time the farming team disbanded. The heroes won't chop down trees once they leave Kassana. Although building towers is fun, they're inconvenient to carry. Let's synthesize powerful black cards instead."
Zhou Nan first used the Heroic Bear to combine Heroic Bears and discovered that combining nine into one could produce the strongest Heroic Bear card.
The so-called strongest hero card only refers to a hero card whose surface data has reached its limit. The hero watchtower built by it has a durability of 10,000, and the hero axe thrower has an attack power of 150 and an attack speed of 2.0.
These are pretty good hero cards. Zhou Nan combined five of them, one of which was a 10-in-1 combination, four of which were 9-in-1 combinations, and all of them had the same attributes. He also had one ordinary hero card left!
This is when you should try the "word-matching technique".
He combined a "Strongest Hero Card", a regular Hero Card, and an Emperor Crab Card, estimating a chance of getting a "Hero Emperor" card.
The pleasant system notification sounded: "Congratulations on obtaining the one-star black card [Heroic Bear Crab]."
Zhou Nan released the bear crab and discovered that it was just a bear with two large claws, and it had no special abilities. He estimated that its combat strength was not much stronger than that of a wild black bear.
"Did this guy go blind? He ruined my strongest hero!"
Zhou Nan didn't dare to waste any more "Strongest Hero Cards," after all, a hero card with 300 damage per second wasn't bad.
Next, Zhou Nan played around with whatever he could. He was full of expectations and used the God's Believer Card to combine with the Little Devil Card, hoping to get the God and Demon Card. Instead, he got the Villain Card, which could be considered a trash card with mediocre attributes, only at the level of a one-star white card.
Zhou Nan used the God's Believer Card to combine with the Mysterious Butterfly Card, hoping to get the Divine Butterfly Card. Instead, he got the [Letter Butterfly - A-Zhen], which was a special card. The Letter Butterfly's job setting is to follow a pet, with the ability to deliver letters and mail items. It comes with a storage slot, and after using it, a seven-colored butterfly the size of an adult's fist will fly around Zhou Nan.
"It doesn't take up storage space when it follows your pet, that's great, one more picture!"
Zhou Nan continued synthesizing, using up all the God's Believer cards, and then he had another [Believer Butterfly - Aqiang].
After releasing two Letter Butterfly Cards, Zhou Nan used his Override skill again, standing on the back of Sword Butterfly Qiang Fen, and picked up the Gatling gun, secretly thinking that his appearance was pretty good.
