Alice is Mad Slaughtering

Shen Sui now had to admit that Alice had a knack for things.

Whether intentional or not, she always managed to stumble into all sorts of bizarre incidents.

He had only been gone for the time it took to visit the Soul Card Shop, and Alice had already farmed three Spell Cards for him.

Shen Sui immediately issued a command, casting a seventh-rank Greater Healing Spell on Alice, instantly healing her injuries.

Baby Alice, can you just let me have one peaceful day...

Your cards come fast, but my poor heart can't take it...

Shen Sui grumbled inwardly.

With this casting, he also obtained the 7-star Spell Card [Greater Healing Spell].

Shen Sui wasn't surprised anymore. He picked up the [Crushing Blow Targeting the Groin] card instead. As a man, he was very curious about what this card did.

******

Card Name: [Crushing Blow Targeting the Groin]

Type: Spell Card

Star Rating: 2 Stars

Effect: Select one male minion on the field as the target and activate. Destroy that minion.

******

No way. An effect like this wasted such a great name.

Shen Sui raised his hand and decided to modify this card.

He wouldn't change the restriction on male minions—that would ruin the flavor of the card name.

But straight-up destruction was too straightforward. This card deserved something more Netherworld-style.

Shen Sui's eyes rolled as an idea struck him.

His fingers tapped rapidly on the Duel Instrument, quickly writing his brainstorm into the card's effect text.

******

Card Name: [Crushing Blow Targeting the Groin]

Type: Spell Card

Star Rating: 2 Stars

Effect: Select one male minion on the opponent's field as the target and activate. Your opponent chooses one of the following effects to activate:

① You gain control of that minion;

② Send all male minions on both sides' fields, decks, and hands to the Graveyard.

******

Hehehe!

Anyway, I plan to build a full Waifu Card deck in the future. This card's effect can't target me at all! And by including a negative effect that involves my own side, this kind of powerful effect can stay stable on a 2-star card face.

World! Feel the malice of this Waifu Card player toward male minions!

After printing such a sunny card, Shen Sui's earlier frustration lifted into cheerfulness again.

Seems like printing cards like this not only brings smiles to opponents but also brings joy to myself!

Taking advantage of his good mood, Shen Sui opened the Duel Instrument again to see what his Miss Alice had gotten up to.

[Alice accepted your Greater Healing Spell. Alice is fully healed.]

[The Little Mare carries Alice onward toward Pa Yin Jia Lake.]

[Alice is en route.]

Okay, okay. At least it's settled down for a bit...

Just as Shen Sui felt relieved, the next second, text scrolled across the Duel Instrument again:

[Alice passes through Shadow Forest and encounters a convoy under attack by a Silver Moon Wolf Pack.]

Danger! Danger! Danger! Shen Sui immediately pressed a hand to the input key. He had to persuade Alice not to meddle.

[Alice intends to pass by quietly.]

Yes! Yes! That's right! Don't stir up trouble! Other people's danger is none of your business. In novels these days, plots where someone with no connection jumps in to uphold justice aren't even popular anymore!

[Alice sees an elegant and beautiful noble girl in the convoy, already pitifully frightened by the wolves, with tears hanging from the corners of her eyes.]

So what? Shen Sui found this text a bit baffling.

[Alice's eyes light up.]

What the hell are your eyes lighting up for?! You're a girl—are you really getting smitten by a pretty face?!

Shen Sui felt something was off. But just as he tried to input a command to have his character step in and persuade Alice, her Fireball Spell had already been launched.

[Alice uses Fireball Spell on the wolf pack. Alice decides to let Righteousness Prevail.]

"Why did you cast the fireball first and then make the decision? Is your body faster than your brain at making choices?"

Shen Sui slapped his forehead, already bracing himself for the mental image of Alice being gravely injured again.

[Alice frantically uses fireball spells to attack the wolf pack.]

[Alice has comprehended a new magic: Multi-Chain Berserk Fireball Spell.]

[Ding! You have obtained a Spell Card: Multi-Chain Berserk Fireball Spell.]

Good! Alice! What a timely act of bravery!

Shen Sui praised her lavishly, completely forgetting his earlier thoughts.

[Alice has killed three Silver Moon Wolves.]

[Alice has killed seven Silver Moon Wolves. Mad Slaughter!]

Keep going, keep going! Hurry up and grind out another Event Spell Card for me!

Shen Sui expressed his approval, but the next second...

[Alice has been hit by her own Multi-Chain Berserk Fireball Spell, life hanging by a thread.]

The Duel Instrument let out a piercing alarm, warning Shen Sui that his Soul Card Follower was on the verge of death.

Can you even cast spells?! How do you get hit by your own magic?!

Shen Sui, who had felt like he was in heaven a moment ago, instantly plummeted into icy hell.

He stared speechlessly at the text displayed on the Duel Instrument, feeling like crying but having no tears. What kind of Soul Card Follower had he even drawn...

[Ding! You have obtained a Spell Card: Friendly Fire]

Since there were outsiders present this time, Shen Sui didn't want to casually use [Resurrection]. Instead, he activated [Greater Healing Spell] the moment Alice's life was in danger, instantly healing her injuries. To an ordinary observer, it would look like Alice had taken a fireball and come out completely unscathed.

[Silver Moon Wolf King saw everything that just happened to Alice. In her eyes, this was nothing short of a miracle.]

[Silver Moon Wolf King has expressed submission to Alice.]

[Ding! You have obtained a Follower Card: Silver Moon Wolf King Harley]

Shen Sui stared at the suddenly appearing Follower Card, his head full of question marks.

Wait, why did she just submit like that?

Was it because this Silver Moon Wolf King sensed his aura?

A 16th-tier aura could indeed make ordinary magical beasts submit directly.

Shen Sui let out a sigh of relief. Although that whole segment was full of cringe-worthy moments, the outcome was good. Baby Alice's one act of timely bravery had directly brought Shen Sui three Life Cards, bringing his total card count to fifteen, one step closer to the Duel Exam requirements.

The result of the timely assistance was good.

But Alice, could we maybe practice casting spells in the future? Getting hit by your own magic—isn't that a bit too much?

Shen Sui glanced at Alice's self-created magic [Multi-Chain Berserk Fireball Spell] and realized it wasn't that Alice lacked ability, but that her original spell had a huge problem!

******

Card Name: [Multi-Chain Berserk Fireball Spell]

Type: Spell Card

Star Rating: 2 Stars

Effect: Randomly select up to five followers on the field as targets and activate. Reduce their Spirit Value by 500. Followers whose Spirit Value drops to 0 are destroyed.

******

So it's random. No wonder it hit herself.

But wait, doesn't this effect feel a little... familiar?

This is a random multi-target version of Lightning Summoning Bullet, isn't it?

Interesting. And it's a rare group-effect spell too.

Shen Sui happened to lack a way to clear the field, so this was truly Timely Assistance.

It's just that the value of 500 is too low. He'd need to find a way to modify it, aiming to wipe out all of the opponent's followers in one go.

He stroked his chin, pondering how to tweak the effect.
