"Gotta pick my route all over again..."
Zhong Yi picked up the map with a resigned sigh and studied it again.
Although the map was completely different, his experience from the last run could still come in handy.
For instance, the mobs in normal combat rooms were very weak. He barely lost any health, so they were practically reward rooms.
The events in random rooms were a real screw-over. They could actually delete cards? Best to avoid them.
The elite monsters in elite rooms were unimaginably strong. He should avoid fighting them whenever possible.

In his last run, the first three combat rooms had only cost him 2 health.
And that had been his very first attempt, when he'd had no experience whatsoever.

"Hahaha! Sure enough, you got weaker on turn two!"
"You're not attacking on turn three? Free damage!"
"??? Why does your attack keep getting higher??"
"Ahem, only lost 5
