He is the prototype of Ji Li.

The boss for this event is Ji Li.

If we round it up, he's the boss, so naturally I should also experience the thrill of being a boss!

Ying Qin Guan didn't hesitate any longer, went to the clerk to pay the fee, and was led to a table to the side... To be honest, the facilities were a bit simple, but it didn't matter much.

The clerk gave him a card... The back of the card was different from the normal general cards, indicating its 'event-only' status. I heard that Gou Card once held a 'Ghost Cup', allowing all event bosses to participate. The scene was truly chaotic. Even a fighting god would be wiped out before even making a ripple.

Ying Qin Guan looked at the front of the card...

He had an exceptionally handsome face with striking eyebrows and bright eyes, but his complexion was slightly pale. He stood on a high place, his clothes fluttering in the wind.

Ying Qin Guan: It's me! It's me!

【The Wandering Soul of a Fallen Kingdom? Ji Li】

Era: Modern

Stamina: 20

【Pseudo-Investiture of the Gods】: A fictional character that does not exist in reality and has no "god" prefix.

The rest is the same as in Investiture of the Gods.

[Illness]: You lose some physical strength before your preparation phase begins.

[Remains]: Lose 1 health after your discard phase ends.

[Awakener]: You gain one "Awakening" token for every point of stamina you lose.

【Soul Transformation】: Locked skill, all damage that is about to be dealt on the field is considered as loss of stamina.

【In the world, there is no battle I cannot win】: When you need or want to use or play any card, declare the name of the card. If you are theoretically able to use the card in that situation, reveal the top or bottom x+1 cards of the deck. If the card you declared is among them, it is considered that you have used or played the card.

(For example, if someone attacks you outside of your turn, you can declare a dodge, which is acceptable. However, you cannot declare a kill for no reason. This is because you cannot play a kill in that situation unless someone "provokes" you or duels you.)

After this card is resolved, discard all other revealed cards.

If none of the cards you claimed are among them, you lose one point of health. If it is currently your turn, end that turn immediately.

x Your number of Awakening Marks.

(In this world, there is no battle I cannot win; what does it matter if I am sick or disabled?)

Ying Qin Guan has been playing cards for so long, and although he's terrible at it and always sets traps, he can still get a general idea of ​​a general's strength.

The moment he saw this military general, he knew what the general needed.

桃!

As long as there are peaches! Everything is negotiable!

Awakening tokens can be stacked infinitely. In the late game, theoretically, you can flip the entire deck at once! At that point, you'll be invincible. Equip an AK, and you can unleash endless kills and rampage through the deck.

This...this...this...this...Quickly go to the Western Paradise and ask for the Ring of Truth! No one can stop him except by cutting his cap.

Perhaps Taki could also come over and ban a basic hand of cards...

If there's any general who comes close to being truly invincible in the late game, then Ying Qin Guan would definitely vote for Ji Li. What kind of godlike general is this? Does she really own the entire deck?

He was overjoyed. Although his general card was known as the strongest in team battles, it was targeted by the entire team 99% of the time and depended on whether the lord cooperated. In most cases, it was just a blank card with four health points. What kind of nonsense was that? This card was his true strength!

The fake nameless swordsman of Southern Qin: fragile four-health body, explosive awakening difficulty, AFK every day, a blank slate, targeted by the whole field, directly destroying the ecosystem of the entire identity field, no one except for idiots with dreams will play.

The true nameless swordsman of Southern Qin: a noble 20-health physique, who will naturally awaken even if he can't do anything, and becomes stronger as the game progresses. He has the entire deck under his control, and as long as he can play a winning hand, he won't die!

—As long as there are peaches.

If you paired this with a general who can heal others, wouldn't it be invincible?

Unfortunately, he is destined to be a ghost general who can only appear in the arena.

Ying Qin Guan roughly figured out how to play this general: in the early game, he would sacrifice health to accumulate awakening marks, then on his turn, he would endlessly claim peaches, constantly resetting the deck until he could truly exhaust the entire deck.

In other words, to defeat this thing, the opponent either needs a special crowd control general or needs to have their skill ceiling reduced. Otherwise, there shouldn't be much to fear. However, the Ring of Truth is a fragile character with only three health points; killing it is a piece of cake for them.

Damn it! Is there anyone who can pick a support hero to protect the Ring of Truth and kill me?!

As Ying Qin Guan chatted and laughed, a couple sat down in front of him and took out the Ring of Truth and the Pope of Light.

[The Pope of Light]

Era: Ancient

Life: Four.

【Universal Holy Light】: Once per turn during your play phase, you may discard a red card and designate one character to recover one point of health. If one of them fails to recover health, you draw two cards and freely distribute them.

This skill can be activated outside of a turn when a character is near death.

【Burning Demon】: Awakening Skill. After killing a general, you lose 'Universal Holy Light' and gain 'Demon God Pillar'.

【Demon Pillar】: Once per turn during your play phase, discard one card from your hand and randomly draw one general whose race is not human, and gain one of their skills.

(Only when that veneer of falsehood is stripped away can the truth be seen...)

Ying Qin Guan took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

..

Ten minutes later, with his maximum health reduced to zero, he went to the shopkeeper and paid 100 Eevee.

Chapter Twenty: The Visitor

"I was countered, but that's not my fault."

"To be honest, there's nothing I can do against them. Two of their generals are teaming up to bully me, an old, weak, and disabled person who loses two health points every turn. I can't win against them."

Ying Qin Guan looked serious, his fingers interlaced, striking a pose like a commanding officer.

This time, I won't lose again!

Come on, you bunch of rotten potatoes and stinky eggs! After today, my infamous reputation will be known to everyone from the Imperial Palace to the entire Cherry Blossom Kingdom!

I won't lose again!

Ten minutes later, Ying Qin Guan was triumphant.

This time, the opponent didn't choose a suitable combination. Ying Qin Guan drew a few peaches, quickly went through the deck, drew an AK and kept looking for peaches to kill, successfully killing the opponent in one go. It was really fucking satisfying.

This is the kind of strength a hellish boss in an event should have!

Hey, you on the Ring of Truth, stand up! Forgive my bluntness, but everyone here is trash.

After enjoying himself, Ying Qin Guan's confidence soared, and he struck a more flamboyant pose, his eyes gleaming as he awaited his next opponent.

Thanks to the new promotion, the Time and Space Kill board game store is packed with customers again—although it's always been thriving, promotions definitely boost its popularity.

In front of the board game store, people came and went. At each of the small, square tables, three people sat, some of them dizzy from being tormented by the boss Ji Li, and others with red eyes as they flipped over the cards, hoping to find the peach or wine to save their lives.

The room was filled with a cacophony of voices, a chaotic scene. People were shouting things like, "What an idiot designer! This is so weird!" and "Is this deck even real? I've played through it and haven't drawn a single Mad Blade (Zhuge Crossbow)!" One person was yelling, "Hey buddy, go easy on us! We'll do an event, and you get a card. Think about it, you have to win three games to get a card, the cost is 3?2?40 + 100, and you only get one card. But we two won, the cost is 2?40 + 100, and we get two cards! Isn't that a huge profit? We'll bankrupt the game's survival card market!"

In this bustling atmosphere, two people approached from a distance.

One of them was an elderly man, his head full of silver hair, devoid of any sign of life. He was slightly hunched over, with an ancient-looking long sword at his waist, engraved with countless marks left by the years. He wore a blue bathrobe and walked barefoot on the ground. His figure was withered and frail, yet he exuded an invincible power.

The other person... was extremely tall.

Judging by sight, it's about 2.4 meters tall...maybe 2.5 meters, incredibly tall.

His skin was a deep bronze, with bulging veins that exuded unparalleled power. He was burly, with an extremely thick neck and a rather plain buzz cut. Even though he was wearing what appeared to be the largest size clothing, it still couldn't conceal his muscles, which were so full they seemed about to burst.

The two people walked from not far away, and everything in their path fell silent.

They went to the board game store, and all the sounds disappeared.

Those who were playing cards dared not play anymore, and those who were complaining about the designer dared not continue complaining. Only a very few audacious individuals, with red eyes, searched for the peaches among the revealed cards...

They stopped.

The boss winked at the employee, signaling him to hurry up and serve the customer. The employee returned the wink, implying that with such a low salary, it was difficult for him to do anything for the employee.

The boss, who valued money over life, was a ruthless man. He steeled himself and went out, forcing a smile as he approached the two men, stammering, "Gentlemen... what brings you here?"

"What else could you be doing in a place like this?" the tall man said calmly. "An old man who hasn't aged a bit except for his age wants to play around with the things young people do."

The boss's legs went weak with fear upon hearing this, but the old man chuckled softly and said, "Aside from your age, you've made some progress... You'll soon find out."

The old man looked at the boss and said gently, "I know all the rules... Is there a Ji Li available over there?"

As he spoke, he glanced around. No one who came to play cards could bear to play with these two, and they all immediately looked away. Some even slipped away as soon as the old man looked away.

Of course, they weren't afraid of this old man... they were afraid of another one.

The old man looked around and finally locked onto Ying Qin Pass.

This guy was idly playing with the hem of his clothes, circling his fingers with the hem and then putting it back, looking like a complete idiot.

But when the old man looked over, his gaze did not waver.

So the old man said gently, "Is this side alright?"

Ying Qin Guan nodded. Fighting and playing cards were similar to him; he accepted both without hesitation. He replied, "Of course..."

He is fearless in the face of any challenge.

“Alright…” The old man and the tall man walked over and sat down.

As they sat down, a large group of guests quickly left. Ying Qin Guan was somewhat bewildered, wondering why these people had suddenly fallen silent and started singing off-key. But he quickly used a mental attack on himself.

Damn it, we're about to play cards, and you're still getting distracted!

—Don't ask why you don't slap yourself; you have to save face.

The two sat down and were about to draw general cards when Ying Qin Guan reached out and took the box containing the general cards away.

The old man was slightly taken aback, meeting Ying Qin Guan's unfriendly gaze.

"What are you doing? Don't you know the rules? Pay first! Pay first! How can the boss do business if you don't pay?" Ying Qin Guan said displeasedly. "It's not that I disrespect the elderly, but if I may be so blunt, you're so poor you can't even afford shoes. I advise you to forget about it and not spend money in a place like this. After all, you'd definitely lose to me..."

Shut up, you idiot!

The boss was so angry he wanted to rush up and give Ying Qin Guan a good beating. But he didn't dare, and could only stay in the back, his legs trembling, almost wanting to run away first.
