No Logic, All Grudges

"Attack!"

"Guan Yu is here, prepare to die!"

"Slash!"

As soon as Mu Yawen's turn ended, her master Yue Lingfeng stabbed her with a blade.

"Hahaha! Truly worthy of the Martial Saint who shook the realm! With red cards, you'll never run out of [Attack]!"

Yue Lingfeng looked thoroughly pleased.

In their current understanding, [Attack] was the most direct way to reduce health, so they valued it highly.

Nearby, Lu Ze scratched his head in confusion.

He wondered how these physical cultivation masters would react when more bizarrely designed generals appeared later.

"To know heaven's will is easy; to defy it is hard."

When it became Lin Anzai's turn, Zhuge Liang behind him shook his feather fan and sighed deeply.

Five cards instantly appeared before him.

Lin Anzai studied them carefully, rearranged their order with visible delight, then placed them back into the deck.

The barrage of comments immediately became several times livelier than before.

[This Zhuge Liang's skill seems so advanced - he can control his hand?]

[Looks way more sophisticated than "Martial Saint" or "Dragon's Courage"...]

[Glory to the Tianxuan Sect!]

[Junior Brother Lu's artwork is truly impressive!]

[I think I'm starting to understand how to play "Three Kingdoms Kill"...]

......

"Haha! I hear Elder Zhao excels in thunder magic - let me gift you a big lightning bolt!"

Without hesitation, Lin Anzai immediately played a [Lightning] card.

After activating all equipment and stratagem cards, a clear zither sound rang out as he exhausted his entire hand.

Lin Anzai eagerly ended his turn.

"Strange, why didn't it activate?"

Seeing Zhao Wendao didn't enter the lightning judgment phase, Lin Anzai frowned.

"Patience, Elder Lin. [Lightning] only begins judgment in the next round... starting with you."

Lu Ze explained with a smile, serving as the rules arbiter for the group.

"Tsk, what a shame."

Lin Anzai shook his head regretfully.

"You old fox! Trying to pull one over on me!?"

Zhao Wendao looked at the spade-7 [Attack] in his hand, then read [Lightning]'s effect again, suddenly realizing Lin Anzai's scheme. His beard quivered with indignation.

"Attack... what nonsense? I can't even attack you??"

When Zhao Wendao tried to use [Attack] on Lin Anzai, he found it wouldn't work.

"Hehehe, I've achieved [Empty City]~ Didn't expect that, did you? Come attack me! Go on!?"

Lin Anzai swayed his head triumphantly.

[Empty City] was Zhuge Liang's second skill - with no cards in hand, he couldn't be targeted by [Attack] or [Duel].

The comment barrage exploded again:

[Damn! That's ridiculously strong!]

[As expected of the most popular strategist from Three Kingdoms!]

[The Empty Fort Strategy? Damn, Lu Ze really studied Romance of Three Kingdoms deeply]

[Between "Stargaze" and "Empty City", every skill is amazing]

[And they perfectly match the characters' personalities!]

[Compared to these, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun seem kinda weak...]

......

"You crafty old bastard..."

Zhao Wendao chuckled.

Stroking his beard, he thought quickly and suddenly had an idea.

"Haha! Want to hide behind [Empty City]? Take this [Counterplot]!"

Zhao Wendao decisively activated Zhou Yu's skill.

"Struggle in the abyss of blood and darkness!"

As Zhou Yu's voice rang out, four suit options appeared before Lin Anzai.

"What's this??"

Lin Anzai looked bewildered.

After quickly reading Zhou Yu's skill description, he understood [Counterplot]'s effect.

The concept of card suits was new but simple enough.

Squinting, Lin Anzai finally chose spade - because both cards he'd given Zhao Wendao were spades.

Sure enough, the drawn card was that spade-7 [Attack], allowing him to avoid [Counterplot]'s damage.

"Hahaha, trying to hit me? Come at me!"

Lin Anzai grew even more smug.

"Attack!"

"Slash!"

The moment he spoke, one of the three jade beads above his head shattered.

"Damn it, you sneaky old fox!"

Lin Anzai smacked his forehead, realizing that by taking Zhao Wendao's [Attack], his [Empty City] effect had disappeared.

"Didn't see that coming, did you? Haha!"

Now it was Zhao Wendao's turn to gloat.

He cheerfully drew a card and flung it at Lin Anzai.

"Duel!"

"Attack!"

"Eh?"

Zhao Wendao froze.

He suddenly remembered Lin Anzai had just taken an [Attack] from him...

"Stop laughing, you old coot! Soon you'll be crying 'Why was Zhou Yu born when Zhuge Liang existed'!"

"Think you can beat me? Just wait until my lightning bolt fries you next turn!"

The two elders bickered loudly while thoroughly enjoying themselves.

The scene amused even Lu Ze.

It reminded him of when he first played the physical version at school - no strategy, just pure grudges.

Yet it was the most genuine fun.
