My Stubborn Soul Card Follower
Chapter 810 - 486: Damn, On-the-Spot Card Printing?
"Pay 5 Soul Points to normally summon [Sacrificial Puppet Ada] from my hand."
Shen Sui specially summoned the Sacrificial Puppet from his hand.
Ever since Qishala attained the form of the Queen of Dragons, he hadn’t used the Sacrificial Puppet in a long time, not because the card was outdated, but simply because there was no need to use it as a transition.
In fact, considering the whole world, the strength of the Sacrificial Puppet is still quite considerable.
One card with five materials, sufficient to meet most stringent summoning conditions, not to mention you can use it to save on Soul Points.
However, using the Sacrificial Puppet alone to summon the War God Puppet Body is still somewhat difficult.
Powerful cards always come with stringent summoning conditions.
Although, compared to those powerful Follower Cards, the summoning conditions for [War God Puppet Body Balgas] are relatively easy to achieve, with a normal summon requiring 15 Soul Points and five liberation materials, weaker decks simply cannot meet both of these conditions simultaneously.
Shen Sui used 5 Soul Points to activate [Puppet Creation] and then used 5 Soul Points to normally summon [Sacrificial Puppet Ada], instantly reducing his Soul Points to 6, which was still quite a distance from the 15 Soul Points required to summon the War God Puppet Body.
Of course, he had frequently encountered this issue before, when using Qishala without the Queen of Dragons form.
"Sacrifice a Sacrificial Puppet Derivative." Shen Sui activated the Sacrificial Puppet’s effect, sacrificing it as a substitute for Soul Points, and normally summoned [Liquid Bomb Puppet Barbara] from his hand.
[Liquid Bomb Puppet Barbara] is a 9-star card.
Among Shen Sui’s Follower Cards, this Liquid Puppet revealed its true form—a faceless, feminine silver body.
If it were to reveal its disguise now, it would likely appear in the form of Vivian.
Shen Sui decisively sacrificed Barbara, gaining 9 Soul Points, bringing his total to 15 Soul Points.
At the same time, [Liquid Bomb Puppet Barbara]’s effect was activated: when it leaves the field, Shen Sui can specially summon a Follower of 5 stars or below from the deck or graveyard, and if the specially summoned Follower is not on the field at the end of that turn, all cards on the opponent’s field are destroyed.
Following the effect, Shen Sui specially summoned [Cursed Puppet Natasha] from the deck.
Then, without hesitation, he activated the effect of [War God Puppet Body Balgas] from his hand, sacrificing five Followers on the field to specially summon it from his hand.
The moment Shen Sui revealed [War God Puppet Body Balgas], an exaggerated virtual figure rose dramatically from behind him.
It was Balgas, the War God undefeated on the Dawn Continent.
The powerful pressure instantly enveloped the entire sea area.
The sea began to churn, the clouds rotated to form a massive storm.
Torrential rain poured down, raindrops pounded the deck with a piercing sound.
Everyone looked incredulously in the direction of Shen Sui.
Shen Sui was also startled by the commotion.
Wait, it’s not my first time summoning a Divine Card in a duel, so why is the uproar so big this time?
Though slightly puzzled, Shen Sui nonetheless declared the end of his turn.
This hand, drawing [War God Puppet Body Balgas] plus [Puppet Creation], was already incredibly lucky. There wasn’t much more Shen Sui could do given he had no Soul Points left.
On Louise’s side, seeing Shen Sui’s lengthy explanation and five-for-one exchange which left only one Follower Card in play before ending his turn, she was slightly taken aback.
This was vastly different from Shen Sui’s usual duel style.
Was it because this Follower was fifteen stars?
Louise pondered.
Fifteen-star Followers are extremely rare, and even with Louise’s background, she had only managed to collect three fifteen-star Follower Cards through various means, so she was acutely aware of their value.
The psychological pressure surged instantly.
Seeing the War God Puppet Body on Shen Sui’s field, Louise had a foreboding feeling.
"If you surrender now, there’s still time," Shen Sui said with a smile to Louise, adding psychological pressure on her.
He was quite certain Louise’s deck had something up its sleeve; in World No. 2, no deck is simple.
However, he had some concerns about Louise’s level, as the performance of powerful decks is often held back by their Life Card Masters. It’s not uncommon for the Life Card Master’s skill to drag down the deck’s performance.
Of course, a truly powerful deck might perhaps defy this rule, as the Life Card Master only needs to click where it lights up to easily win.
However, in any card game in any world, decks capable of such brilliance aren’t allowed to exist, thus their only destiny is the Forbidden Card List.
Still, Louise’s problems lie more in her mindset. From what Shen Sui observed in the first few rounds of the championship, this wealthy girl from America had the necessary dueling skills; as long as her mindset remained stable, she could fully unleash her deck’s potential.
Originally, Shen Sui didn’t intend to be the villain, saying things that only antagonists would say.
