I Just Won't Play by the Book - Chapter 403
403 Simulating the World of Martial Arts (2)
After Jiang Beiran had explained the rules, the two of them picked up their own Skill Cards and Equipment Cards to study.
Finally, after seven rounds of battle, Shi Fenglan’s luck was off the charts. Every move of hers had reached the highest point, and she had directly beaten Yu Manwen’s Sword Fairy to the brink of death.
“Hahaha! Manwen, don’t blame me ~ Looks like my luck is especially good today ~ Let me say this first, I didn’t cheat. Whoever cheats is a dog!”
“I haven’t lost yet.” At this moment, Yu Manwen took out the mysterious girl’s character card and looked at Jiang Beiran.””Now that my Sword Fairy is dead, can I activate her second form?”
“Of course you can.” Jiang Beiran took out the second form of the pretty girl card from the Magical Beast Forest card pool and handed it to Yu Manwen.
!!
“The second form…A sharp-tailed swift, a hundred thousand year soul beast?”
“Yes, the sharp-tailed swift can transform into a hundred thousand year soul ring to save your Sword Fairy and bestow her with great power. The exact amount of power increase is written on the card.”
“This is too amazing.” Yu Manwen did some calculations and found that after the Sword Fairy obtained her hundred-thousand-year soul ring, all her stats had increased by three times. Even the most ordinary move was enough to kill the Chain Fairy, who was already on the verge of death.
At this moment, Shi Fenglan had also come over to see the effect of the hundred thousand year spirit ring, and cried out in injustice: “This is too amazing! It’s not fair!”
“Like I said just now, you want to come out without a fortuitous encounter these days? I already told you to think of a way to trigger a fortuitous encounter, but you didn’t want to use the compass.”
“I want to go to the precipice valley again to upgrade my black iron chains…”
Yu Manwen, who had been revived, asked,””Then can I attack now?”
“Of course.” Jiang Beiran nodded.
Thus, Yu Manwen immediately activated her move, the Gale Sword Technique.
However, Shi Fenglan only chuckled after hearing that. She took out a prop card and said,””I want to use this card to save me. No matter what state I am in, I can immediately retreat from the battle and advance four squares.”
“Sure.” Jiang Beiran nodded.
“Hehe, I’ll be leaving first.” After Shi Fenglan finished speaking, she picked up the Chain Fairy and walked forward four squares.
When the die returned to Yu Manwen’s hand, he glanced at Jiang Beiran before throwing the die out.
As the dice spun, Yu Manwen suddenly said,””Was it you that night?”
“May I know which day Protector Yu is referring to?”
“Are you planning to fool me like this?”
“You have no evidence. Protector Yu, don’t accuse a good person.”
Shi Fenglan listened to the conversation between the two and suddenly felt a wave of confusion. She asked,””What are you talking about? Which night?”
“Five.”
Picking up the Sword Fairy, Yu Manwen said as she walked,””It is indeed a very lucky thing to have someone come to save you when you are on the verge of death.”
Shi Fenglan thought that Yu Manwen was showing off after hearing that, so she immediately put her hands on her hips and said,””Humph! I won’t be so lucky to meet you next time.”
Yu Manwen smiled after hearing that. She looked at Jiang Beiran and asked,””Do you think I’ll be so lucky next time?”
“That depends on whether you can still get such a good Strange Encounter Card.”
“Since you don’t want to tell me, I won’t ask. However, you sneaked in at night and…You will take responsibility, right?”
The more Little Duo and Shi Fenglan listened, the more confused they became. They didn’t know if Yu Manwen was talking about the gambling event or something else.
“I think Guardian Yu has really misunderstood something. It’s time for you to draw your card.”Jiang Beiran said with a smile.
“There really are people who like to do good deeds without leaving their names.”Yu Manwen smiled and took out an event card.
It was dinner time when the four of them finally decided the winner. Shi Fenglan’s luck today was indeed off the charts. She had relied on three consecutive fortuitous encounters to crush the other three and obtain victory.
“Hahahaha! This is so fun!”
Shi Fenglan, who had gotten a good start, simply loved this game. She picked up her chain fairy and kissed and hugged it.
“Alright, I have to go. I’ll leave this game simulation here.”Jiang Beiran stood up and said.
Upon hearing that Jiang Beiran had left the betting table here for the first time, Shi Fenglan’s heart tightened. She hurriedly ran over and grabbed Jiang Beiran’s right arm, saying,””Little Bei Ran, where are you going?”
“I have some important matters to attend to, so I have to leave for a period of time.”
“How long is a period of time?” When Shi Fenglan asked the question, she could not help but clench her fists even tighter.
“One month at the fastest, three months at the slowest.”
Hearing that it was only a month, Shi Fenglan heaved a sigh of relief. She let go of her hand and said,””What? You scared me to death.”
“Then why are you willing to leave the betting table this time?”
Jiang Beiran stepped forward and ruffled Shi Fenglan’s hair.””Consider it your reward for passing the test.”
Although Shi Fenglan was the Hall Master, she did not mind Jiang Beiran’s behavior at all. On the contrary, she was very happy.
“Test? What test?”
“You will know in the future. I’m leaving.”Jiang Beiran waved his hand and left Tinglan Waterside Pavilion.
Previously, Jiang Beiran had never left the chessboard to Shi Fenglan because the system would always pop up with an option. But this time, when he saw how happy Shi Fenglan was, he had the idea of leaving the chessboard to her.
Unexpectedly, the system did not give him any options this time.
The reason for such an outcome was most likely because Shi Fenglan was now very clear about what she should and should not do when she was with him. It could be considered that she had made considerable progress.
