Chapter 633: Chapter 288 Peeling Silk and Drawing Cocoons_3

Gao Xin shook his head, "No, Phoenix is not a Black Emperor player."

Sivina exclaimed, "Ah? He’s not with the Black Empire? He fought with me... then he can only be a Green Emperor player!"

Mandala said thoughtfully, "No wonder, no wonder he didn’t play any cards..."

"Once he plays a card, his identity would be revealed, deploying a Hidden Dragon Card would mean the Green Empire declares war on the Black Empire, then everyone would know he’s a Green Emperor player."

Gao Xin narrowed his eyes, "No, Black Pearl knew Phoenix wasn’t a Black Emperor player because she said that originally they had indeed planned to have Phoenix play a card to kill Sivina."

"But if Phoenix was a Black Emperor player, then deploying the Hidden Dragon Card in the Green Empire would start a war, wouldn’t it?"

Sivina nodded, "Right, that would start a war, wouldn’t it?"

Unless Phoenix was originally a Green Emperor player.

Gao Xin continued, "I previously deliberately gave wrong details, just to catch what Phoenix would say."

"Too bad Phoenix was tight-lipped, he directly said he hadn’t deployed any cards in the Green Empire, and still had three cards."

"Instead, it’s Black Pearl whose words revealed... She said that was indeed the plan, but Phoenix disagreed with playing the card."

Mandala immediately said, "Are you suggesting Phoenix still wants to pretend to be a Black Emperor player in front of us... but Black Pearl’s mention of the original plan blew his cover?"

"However, could this be them colluding? Deliberately making us believe Phoenix is a Green Emperor player?"

Gao Xin gave him a meaningful look.

Then he said, "It’s possible, however, if he wanted us to think he was a Green Emperor player, why not just admit all his cards were deployed in the Green Empire

"Why would he reveal himself, honestly telling me he still had three cards?"

Sivina said, "Isn’t that to deter us? If he hadn’t played a card then, he would not have been able to hold us back."

"So he deliberately lied about having three cards."

"Actually, he didn’t have any cards at all! So he never played until the very end."

Gao Xin sighed, "No, he definitely has three cards."

"I kept probing him, asking if he had two Hidden Dragon Cards."

"But he never answered directly, only saying he hadn’t used any cards and didn’t play until the end."

"Now I think he has three random cards. From the beginning to the end, he never stayed at his own camp to draw cards."

Li Fengqing said in surprise, "How could that be?"

"From what you’ve said, he’s already a Hidden Dragon, this level shouldn’t be involved in undercover operations, right? Just stable card drawing would suffice, right?"

"Everyone thought he was at Elephant Level, but he had secretly advanced to Hidden Dragon, isn’t that a point he could exploit?"

"Everyone thought he was using a True Image card, but unexpectedly summon a bunch of Hidden Dragon cards, isn’t that a huge advantage?"

"Why still use random cards? Isn’t that wasting the advantage of being a covert Hidden Dragon?"

Gao Xin slightly shook his head, "That’s where his cleverness lies!"

"He wants us to believe he has many Hidden Dragon cards."

"But does he really need to draw cards steadily? As long as he makes us believe ’he surely draws Hidden Dragon cards’, isn’t that enough?"

"That way, as long as he doesn’t play any cards, we will think he has many Hidden Dragon cards!"

Everyone suddenly understood, so that was it, that explains it.

He had a hidden advantage but instead of using it, he pretended to use it while secretly exploiting this chance to draw random cards.

After all the fuss, it was still imperialist bluster, and from start to finish, all bluffing!

Mandala said with a cold laugh, "A surface deterrence while secretly grabbing better cards, this is the true maximization of benefit for a covert Hidden Dragon!"

"It remains unknown if Black Pearl and the rest knew about this."

"Black Pearl kept urging him to play a card, it could have been a coordinated act or perhaps she genuinely thought he had Hidden Dragon cards..."

Sivina shouted, "As if that dimwit is that smart! She must have been fooled by Phoenix’s bluffing just like us before, really thinking he had Hidden Dragon cards."

Gao Xin said, "Anyway, Phoenix did not play any cards until the very end, preferring to let us go just to keep hiding."

"If you don’t see it, it isn’t there!"

"He at most has one Hidden Dragon Card! After all, we don’t know where he drew his second card."

Sivina pondered, "The second card... wasn’t it also in the Black Empire?"

Mandala immediately said, "No, if Black Pearl knew he was a Green Emperor player, and at the end was urging him because she truly thought he had a Hidden Dragon card..."

"That means Phoenix drew his second round of cards in the Green Empire!"

"Otherwise, on what basis would Black Pearl think Phoenix could play a Hidden Dragon card?"

Gao Xin recalled, "Phoenix’s first card draw was in the Black Empire, where he even said he was ’random’ and got a True Tiger card."

"Looking back now, he didn’t lie, everything he said was true."

"Later everyone gathered here, and, Mandala, you mentioned Caesar starting a war..."

"Then Phoenix left, saying ’there’s nothing more to talk about, enjoy the game’."

"It was from that moment that Phoenix truly began to focus on the game, forming alliances, lying continuously, various threats and strategizing."

"He definitely went to the Green Empire to form alliances, so his second card, must have been drawn in the Green Empire."

"The third card, drawn in front of me, at the White Emperor stronghold..."

Everyone’s expression became more serious; so, in that case, Phoenix drew one card from each of the territories of the Black, White, and Green Empires!

So he has one Hidden Dragon card, two random cards.

Gao Xin’s meticulous analysis laid Phoenix bare, as if stripping him of his clothes.

Everyone was amazed; without Gao Xin, they would probably still be in the dark, thinking he had two Hidden Dragon cards.
