My Stubborn Soul Card Follower-Chapter 412 - 373: Golden Ship Is a Mount, Lingyi Can Be Too! (6K)
Fortunately, although the Exploration Bureau’s card library system is outdated, it still has the most basic filtering system.
Shen Sui quickly selected a few cards from the library.
"Aren’t you choosing high-star cards?" Wang Ming asked curiously after seeing Shen Sui’s choices.
Shen Sui smiled and said, "Sometimes these cards have to match the synergy with one’s own deck. If I choose all high-star cards, how can I develop my strategy? Moreover, the higher the star level, the stronger the constraints. Without a supportive system, they can only be used as standalone attachments."
Shen Sui’s favorite should be the Follower Card named [Fishing Girl Ayi] in his hand.
She is only 3-star, but possesses an effect that Shen Sui likes a lot.
*****
Card Name: [Fishing Girl Ayi]
Category: Follower Card
Star Level: 3-star
Effect: During your main phase, once per turn, you can pay half of your Life Value to activate this effect. Choose this follower and one follower on your opponent’s field as targets; return these cards to their owners’ hands, and their owners regain X Life Value. (X is the Spirit Value of the Follower Card returned to their hands.)
Spirit Value: 500
******
It’s hard to imagine that a 3-star card can have this effect.
An effect that returns Follower Cards is already very powerful, and she can be reused.
This card can become a key card in the hands of any Life Card Master.
Of course, Shen Sui’s reason for choosing this card is not just because she has the ability to clear the field, but also because she can synergize with some Followers in his deck.
Yes! Shen Sui was specifically referring to various Fish Kings.
This card, in relation to the Fish King, is like Huiye in relation to Evil Beasts, forming a pretty good system.
Use the Fish King to devour an opponent’s follower, then use the effect of the Fishing Girl to bounce back the Fish King and the Fishing Girl into Shen Sui’s hand.
The Spirit Value of a Fish King is usually about 2200, plus the Fishing Girl’s 500 Spirit Value; even if Shen Sui activates the Fishing Girl’s effect at full health, paying 3000 Life Value, he can still recover 2700 Life Value after returning two Follower Cards to his hand.
Calculating it all, Shen Sui only used 3 Soul Points and a negligible amount of Life Value that might even increase, resolving two opposing followers, without losing out on his hand.
The efficiency of such resource utilization is enough to make those running five-for-one decks cry!
Just with this one card, Shen Sui already feels it’s worth it, let alone having two self-selected Life Cards.
Unfortunately, he searched for half a day and didn’t find any cards to his liking, so he began to change his strategy to find cards that could supplement certain axis keywords.
[Puppet], [Spiritual Energy], and [Dragon] are quite commonly used keywords in Life Card Duels.
Especially the latter two, as [Spiritual Energy] followers mainly come from the Spiritual World, a very popular Science Fiction Soul Card World, and [Dragon] followers are loved by many Life Card Masters. Several Soul Card Worlds produce similar keyword followers, and even some Science Fiction Worlds prefer naming their robots with XX Dragons.
Shen Sui picked a [Puppet Maid Lily] and a [Spiritual Core Evolutionary Form: Triumphant Dragon].
Although [Puppet Maid Lily] does not have the synergy effect that Shen Sui’s own puppet does, she has a graveyard effect that allows Shen Sui to recover resources from the graveyard, making it handy when using the Cursed Puppet to stack graves.
As for [Spiritual Core Evolutionary Form: Triumphant Dragon], it doesn’t synergize at all with Shen Sui’s [Spiritual Axis], but its decent resistance and dual keywords of [Spiritual Energy] and [Dragon] allow it to perform well in specific situations.
Shen Sui is very satisfied with these cards and even feels a bit unfulfilled.
This feeling of picking and choosing from someone else’s card library is indeed quite enjoyable.
"Since the mission rewards have all been distributed." Wang Ming, who came over this time with unclear intentions, had already been seen through by Shen Sui when he first arrived, "Are you interested in taking on a new mission?"
"There’s nothing going on in World No. 1 recently, right?" Shen Sui said instinctively.
"Nothing yet," Wang Ming said with a slight twitch of his lips, "Big events are happening every moment in World No. 1."
With that, Wang Ming pulled out a stack of documents and handed them to Shen Sui.
"Whoa, that’s a lot," Shen Sui commented, speechless, "Your backpack really can hold a lot." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
"That’s how it is for us working folks," Wang Ming laughed at himself, then began introducing those tasks to Shen Sui.
The majority of the tasks are investigation-based.
A few months’ time isn’t enough to allow the Exploration Bureau to replenish enough Life Card Master agents for World No. 1, so outside help is still required.
The most urgent task is investigating the truth behind the big explosion in Roland City.
Next is the related information about Adoma, the acting bishop of the Church of the Master of Thunder.
"This Adoma is really strange," Wang Ming couldn’t help but complain to Shen Sui, "We actually have a database related to her, but no matter how you look at it, you can’t see how she could become the Pope of the Master of Thunder. It’s said that the big explosion in Roland City is also related to her."
Shen Sui smiled awkwardly.
Couldn’t say it was all Alice’s doing, could he?
But surprisingly, there’s no related investigation about Elm City.
It seems that after losing a large number of agents, the Exploration Bureau’s monitoring capability over the Dawn Continent has indeed been significantly affected.
Of course, this is also related to the confidentiality of several churches.
