Chapter 173: The Gods Have Gone Mad
"What? Doesn't this mean I've wasted a main god card?" Tsubaki looked at Liam pitifully, "Liam, I want a do-over!"
"No do-overs! You have to know, this is a proper Duel King duel. How can you take back a move?"
Liam looked at his own hand, then he flipped over the card in his extra deck.
Familia Cards were the Monster Cards of Duel King. To make it easier for everyone to accept, he had changed them a little.
Liam glanced at the other party's card information.
"Hephaestus, Type: Main God Card (Can only appear in the Extra Deck area),
Effect:
The attack power of all characters in the Familia area increases by 200 points. Lasts until the end of this turn!"
"Activate Main God Card—Hestia!"
A three-dimensional image of Hestia appeared in the Extra Deck area on Liam's side.
Next to her, the card's information panel also appeared simultaneously:
"Hestia, Type: Main God Card (Extra), Effect: Purify all magic cards on the opponent's field. Lasts until the end of this turn."
Thunder Demon Sword, four stars, attack power: 1600 points → 1400 points!
Hestia looked at Liam's actions in shock, her hands covering her cheeks.
"Wow, I've actually become a card! And I even appeared in the duel field! This is really too much fun!"
For Liam's main god card, Hestia, the beautiful girl in the picture, Liam had specially added some clothes to her.
While maintaining her charm, no skin was exposed.
"Next, I summon a Familia card—Dungeon Magic Rabbit!"
"Dungeon Magic Rabbit, Type: Familia Card, Star Level: 1 star
Attack Power: 100 points, Defense Power: 50 points
Effect: Once per turn, you can special summon a card of the same name from your deck or hand!"
As Liam placed the Dungeon Magic Rabbit in the monster area, a bipedal rabbit appeared in his Familia area.
Under the rune image projection of the duel disk, it was vivid and lifelike, and could even make a few movements.
The sound, appearance, and aura were all incredibly realistic.
Above the Magic Rabbit's head, the relevant information panel of the Familia card was also displayed simultaneously.
Eina exclaimed from the side, "Eh? How did Mr. Bell appear at the duel!"
"It really is, it's Bell."
The surrounding adventurers looked at each other and all showed a knowing smile.
The lively noise also happened to attract Bell Cranel over, and as a result, he saw the standing Magic Rabbit.
"Isn't that a Magic Rabbit? How is it the same as me?"
"Eh, Bell, is that your younger brother? He looks so much like you."
Bell had a look of helplessness on his face, once again becoming the object of teasing by the surrounding adventurers.
Liam held the cards in his left hand, and his right hand drew a second Magic Rabbit from the deck.
"A Familia card can only be normal summoned and tribute summoned once per turn, and only four stars and below. But special summons are unlimited!"
"I special summon the second Magic Rabbit! And with the second Magic Rabbit, I special summon the third Magic Rabbit!"
Liam once again drew a Magic Rabbit from his deck and placed it on the monster field.
Tsubaki breathed a sigh of relief, "My Familia's attack power is much higher than yours. Your cards are too weak!"
Liam smiled, "You mustn't underestimate my Duelist's Soul! The main event is next!"
"I offer one Magic Rabbit as a tribute, tribute summon a card from my hand: Dungeon Rei!"
"Dungeon Rei, Type: Familia Card, Star Level: 5 stars
Attack Power: 2000 points, Defense Power: 1000 points
Effect: When attacked by a Familia card, can evade damage once."
Rei's image appeared in Liam's Familia area. Because of the careful production of Liam and the others.
Rei, while not exposing her skin, showed an astonishing monster girl charm!
She's wearing so much, but she's still so hot!
The surrounding adventurers all got excited!
"How did we not discover this before? How are the monster girls in the Dungeon all so good-looking?"
"What's this game called? Can we also buy these cards?"
"I offer one Magic Rabbit as a tribute, special summon a card from the deck: Dungeon Asterius!
For summoning Familia cards of four stars and above, every two stars require one tribute."
"Dungeon Asterius, Type: Familia Card, Star Level: 6 stars
Attack Power: 2200 points, Defense Power: 1900 points
Effect: Once per turn, attack power is temporarily increased by 200 points."
"Next, Dungeon Rei, attack!"
They only saw in the duel field, the image of Rei, the same height as her original self, release an air current cannonball at the Thunder Demon Sword.
"BOOM!"
The air current cannonball directly tore the Thunder Demon Sword into pieces and made a huge roar.
At the same time, a stream of air cannonballs also appeared on Tsubaki's duel disk and smashed towards her.
"BOOM!"
Tsubaki's hands blocked in front of her. The strong wind, compressed into a cannonball, directly hit her chest.
It made Tsubaki's figure retreat several steps in a row, only stopping after taking three steps back.
"Duelist: Tsubaki, Life Points: 2000 → 1400"
"Damn it! Is this a duel?"
Tsubaki's chest heaved rapidly, and she looked at Liam, gritting her teeth.
"Hey! Tsubaki, don't get too into character. The pain feedback I made is at most only the level of a hammer hitting a fingernail with force!"
Liam spread his hands helplessly, "Dungeon Magic Rabbit, attack! Directly attack the duelist Tsubaki!
Tsubaki's field has no cards, so she cannot defend."
The Magic Rabbit's red eyes narrowed, and then it let out a cute "chuu chuu" sound. Then it stood on its two feet and accelerated, running, and then a flying kick came towards Tsubaki.
The image of the Magic Rabbit kicked Tsubaki's duel disk, and a gust of hurricane was released from the inside of Tsubaki's duel disk again.
The strong wind howled, blowing the clothes on Tsubaki's chest into a chaotic flutter.
"Duelist: Tsubaki, Life Points: 1400 → 1300"
"Dungeon Asterius, activate special effect and attack the duelist Tsubaki!"
They only saw the large Minotaur in Liam's Familia area, Asterius, respond.
"MOO!"
He raised the giant axe on his back to the sky. A bolt of heavenly lightning instantly fell from the sky, and an astonishing amount of thunder condensed on the giant axe.
A sky-blue ball of thunder flew towards Tsubaki's position!
"This is just a test. There's no need to play this big, right?"
A ball of lightning with a diameter of over two meters instantly arrived in front of Tsubaki's duel disk.
A dazzling light flashed. A protective barrier rose from the duel disk and absorbed the impact. And on the inside of the duel disk, a ball of lightning simultaneously came onto Tsubaki's body, charring a part of her hair.
Two lines of magnificent text appeared in the sky above the entire duel field.
"Loser: Tsubaki, Life Points: 1300 → 0", the color of the text turned red.
"Victory! Winner: Liam Moon! Life Points: 2000 → 2000", the text was at the very top, and the font was the largest and brightest, and it was a high-profile golden color.
Unconsciously, while Liam and Tsubaki were testing the game, the main gods of the various Familias had all come to the public area of the Adventurer's Guild.
Gods longed for games.
Although gods generally had sufficient knowledge reserves, their long lifespans made their own creativity and creative efficiency far lower than humans.
And now, the new game prepared by Liam directly received the unanimous praise of the many gods present.
"Subarashii! This is great! I have never seen such a wonderful game! Wisdom, strategy, psychological warfare, creativity, luck, and even financial resources, and so on.
This game is really great!"
Freya applauded excitedly. She admired this guy Liam very much.
Especially now, his creativity and appearance all made her like him very much.
If Liam didn't have that annoying demonic hand, Freya would definitely go all out to invite him to join her Familia!
"Clap, clap, clap..."
The applause led by Freya caused all the onlookers present to applaud excitedly.
Although Orario was very prosperous, the entertainment activities had not seen innovation for a long time.
This dueling card game called Duel King would surely set off a new wave of gaming in Orario.
"I didn't expect that the monsters in the Dungeon actually have such astonishing power!"
"Yeah, and it's a rare six-star level!"
Freya proactively approached, and the passersby around all made way for her.
"Liam, when will this game go on sale? How can we play if we want to?"
Liam smiled, "A deck has a minimum of twenty and a maximum of sixty cards. You need to buy a one-thousand-Valis-per-pack card pack to obtain the relevant cards.
Each pack contains three cards.
After that, as long as two people activate their duel disks respectively, they can start a duel game!
I will hold a Duel King game competition in about a month! The prize pool will be the accumulated net profit of the entire Grand Casino for thirty days from now!"
Freya nodded with great interest, "Then what was the net profit of the Grand Casino yesterday?"
"One hundred million Valis!"
This sentence directly shocked everyone present!
"The Grand Casino makes that much money? A net profit of one hundred million Valis in one day?"
Even the top-tier Familia expeditions, the average daily net profit was not as much as the Grand Casino!
Too exaggerated!
Everyone present showed a look of hunger.
Liam coughed, "This time, the champion will receive 50% of the total prize pool, the 2nd-8th place will share 25%, the remaining 8th-16th place will share 20%, and the 17th to 50th place will share the remaining 5%!"
There were a full fifty places that could win a prize. If calculated according to a prize pool of 3 billion Valis, even the fiftieth place would have more than four million Valis!
Too exaggerated!
An ordinary resident of Orario, working as a heavy manual laborer for a day, could only earn 1000 Valis!
The reason Liam designed and used the Dungeon's Familia cards was to let everyone in Orario understand that these monsters in the Dungeon were actually no different from them.
Plus Liam's specially designed Xenos card deck system, he thought this set of cards would easily become a popular deck for winning the championship.
Even if others were resistant to the Xenos card deck, they would find ways to study or counter this deck.
Hestia excitedly came before Liam, "Liam, this game is too much fun! I want to play too, I want to play too!"
The surrounding adventurers all came over excitedly, one by one wanting to buy in advance.
Liam coughed, "Everyone, please wait patiently for three days. In three days, I will publicly sell card packs at The Hearthfire Manor.
The competition venue will be at the Ganesha Familia's Colosseum!"
Ganesha was stunned, "No problem, using the Colosseum as a duel competition venue, I am very welcome!"
The matter here could be considered to have come to an end for now. For the remaining time.
Goibniu was forging a detachable duel field according to Liam's design.
Unlike the duel disk, the duel field would have a more realistic dueling environment.
Sound effects, lighting, temperature and humidity, smell, and other effects.
Hephaestus and Tsubaki, on the other hand, were manufacturing various duel cards according to the design given by Liam.
Currently, there were the following types of duel cards:
Familia Card (Monster Card), Magic Card, Trap Card, Main God Card (Extra Deck)
To make the major main gods and Familia members feel more immersed, the Main God Card was indispensable. And each duelist could only bring one to a duel per match.
As for the Familia cards, Liam planned to design the mainstream Familias and their Familia members into them.
If the Familia members were relatively few, then Liam would design their Familia's equipment or items into them.
For example, Ais was now a level five adventurer. So Liam planned to design her as a five-star Familia card.
When Ais leveled up in the future, Liam would then draw a new Ais duel card face.
Hephaestus sized up Liam in her spare time, "Liam, don't you think the share you're giving us is too high?"
"High? I'm getting 50% of the net profit all to myself. Master Goibniu, and you and Tsubaki, the three of you will share the remaining net profit.
Everyone has money to earn. This is a long-term cooperation."
Hephaestus took a deep look at Liam, "This guy of yours, it's really pleasant to cooperate with you!"
Tsubaki didn't think too much, "Hey, are there any new card faces? This game is really great!"
Liam nodded, "Yes, next I will directly design the molds for the duel cards. This way, you all just need to engrave the runes in the molds."
Hephaestus looked at the game card mold designed by Liam with a look of shock.
"Liam, what is this?"
She was truly shocked again. For so many years, almost all books had been hand-copied.
And now, she saw the bright future of mass-producible books.
"This is called woodblock printing!"
"Liam, do you know what this represents? This represents the future! Our knowledge will have a transmission efficiency of dozens or even hundreds of times!"
Tsubaki also became curious about Liam, "Liam, your creativity is really not bad. I couldn't have thought of this kind of thing even if I wracked my brains."
Liam smiled awkwardly. These were invented by the ancestors of his previous life. He was just paying tribute.
According to the public information of the major Familias in Orario now, Liam, combining the personality, experience, and appearance of these main gods and Familia members, respectively created a large number of molds.
Familia Card, Main God Card, Magic Card, Trap Card.
Especially the Xenos card deck, which was heavily loaded with Liam's personal preferences. As the zero-point-one version of Duel King.
The Xenos card deck, in this era of axe-man versus axe-man, would have T0-level dominance!
How exciting. When the card packs start selling, just how much will everyone love the Xenos!
