āBattle!ā Yuei Vu waved his hand, āUse Magicianās Rod to attack the Embodiment of Apophis!ā
The illusory magician raised his staff, and the avatar of the snake head raised his sword and shield in a demonstration.
The magic shock washed away like flowing water, knocking the golden shield far away from the avatarās hand. The body of the trap monster shook violently, and the body was about to disintegrate into a black mist under the agitation of magic. But before it died, it threw out the sharp blade in its hand, and the whirling blade split the magicianās phantom in two.
Both sides had 1600 ATK, so of course, it resulted in a mutual kill.
āDue to the effect of āTemple of the Kingsā, I can only set one card per turn. Then I set a card and end my turn.ā
Rishid narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at the set card at Yuei Vuās feet.
If he guessed correctly, that card should be the āMagician Navigationā that was just retrieved by the effect of Magicianās Rod.
But it was just the easy part. The hard part was that he has never seen or heard of that card, thus having no idea what was its abilityā¦
In any case, the duel must continue.
āMy turn!ā Rishid drew a card, and then inserted the card into the Duel Disk without hesitation, āI will set a trap card⦠Then according to the effect of āTemple of the Kingsā, it can be activated this turn.
Flip set card ā Reckless Greed! Draw 2 cards and skip my next 2 Draw Phases!ā
Rishid drew two cards again.
āThen I set another card on the field.ā Rishid set one of the cards and played the other, āActivate Spell card ā Graceful Charity! Draw three cards, then discard two cards.ā
Rishid discarded the two he had drawn into the GY, and immediately waved his arms: āThen according to the effect of āTemple of the Kingsā, I activate the trap card I just set ā Disgraceful Charity! Both players add all cards from their Graveyards that were discarded by the effect of a Spell Card activated this turn to their hands!ā (Anime effect)
Looking at Rishidās posture of replenishing three cards in one go, Yuei Vu couldnāt help but look up at the skyā¦
ā¦As expected of a DM duelist, the card draw engine was simply incredible. Did everyone have a book called ā1001 Ways To Refill Your Handā?
Rishid glanced at the newly added hand cards and slowly raised his head.
āThe duelist of the Nightcrawler World, you are indeed a strong man.ā He said in a deep voice, āSo in order to fight against you, I will also use all my strength to perform a sacred ceremony here and summon the holy beast that guards this temple. !ā
Seemingly to confirm his āsacred ritualā, before Rishid inserted the next two cards into the Duel Disk, a hip-hop-like pose of unknown meaning followed, and then two Spell cards were activated one after another.
āSpell card ā Cup of Sealed Soul! Spell card ā Seal of Serket! Then the final condition is this Temple of the Kings!
When these three sacred artifacts exist on the field at the same time, a sacred ceremony will be carried out, and the holy beast that protects the temple will descend on this field!
Special summon Mystical Beast of Serket! ā
The black mist released from the three cards connected to one place and transformed into an incomparably huge dark energy. Two deep blue eyes lit up, followed by a huge steel-like body.
The heavy feet landed on the steps of the temple, and the weight of the entire temple seemed to sink. The huge crawling silhouette moved like a tank that was slowly driving out, bringing a dull and oppressive feeling that enveloped the audience.
When the smoke screen cleared, the holy beast looked like a⦠red scorpion?
It had a sturdy shell, long body, red pincers, and a long tail. Its huge mouth was full of circles of jagged teeth.
In short, it was a monster that could cause extreme discomfort.
[Mystical Beast of Serket, ATK 2500]
āMystical Beast of Serket is the guardian of the temple and will knock down any enemy who steps into this holy place.ā Rishid said loudly, āand it can devour any opponent who stands in front of him, absorbing its powerā¦ā
āTo put it bluntly, its own attack power will increase by half the attack power of the destroying monster.ā Yuei Vu looked at the disgusting scorpion and said lightly, āAnd it canāt attack during the turn it was special summoned, right?ā (anime effect)
āThatās right, you survive for another turn.ā Rishid said lightly, āBut in my next turn, no matter what monster you summon, it will be defeated by the holy beast and become its food!ā
Rishid glanced at the last card in his hand.
āI set a card, and then use the effect of āTemple of the Kingsā to activate the trap I just set this turn.ā Rishid waved his arm, āThe second āReckless Greedā! Draw 2 cards and skip my next 2 Draw Phases..ā
Itās quite profitable to use two āReckless Greedā in one turn because the effect of āskip two card drawsā would not stack. No matter using two or three cards, it would only skip the Draw Phase of the next two turns.
Rishid glanced at the two newly drawn cards, and even his tough face which was like being paralyzed for ten thousand years couldnāt help showing such an imperceptible smile.
At this moment, what Rishid thought might be similar toā
āāRishid is here. Who dares to kill me?
Oh wait, I take the wrong scriptā¦
āSet two cards !ā Rishid said, āI end my turn!ā
There were two more traps. Thereās nothing to say about this, after all, it would be strange for him to draw something else.
But that had no effect.
Victory has been decided.
āWait a minute, before your declaration is over⦠Open the set card!ā Yuei Vu swept his right arm, āTrap card ā Magician Navigation!
With the effect of this trap, Special Summon 1 āDark Magicianā from my hand, then Special Summon 1 Level 7 or lower DARK Spellcaster monster from my Deck.
Bring it on! The Dark Magician, and the Magicianās Robe! ā
The trap card projected a magic circle on the ground, and a dark undercurrent emerged from the whirling magic circle. The magician in the red robe flew straight out with the emerald staff wrapped around his arms, followed by the illusory robe of the magician.
[Dark Magician, ATK 2500]
[Magicianās Robe, DEF 2000]
āAre you actually summoning the top magician before my turn ends?ā Rishid snorted, āThen Iāll end my turn nowā¦ā
āWait a second, itās not over yet!ā Yuei Vu interrupted again with a wave of his hand, āI also need to activate the ability of the āMagicianās Robeā!ā
Rishid: āā¦ā
Hey, is this your turn or mine?
āMagicianās Robe can special summon 1 āDark Magicianā from the deck by discarding a Spell or Trap Card during the opponentās turn!ā Yuei Vu said, āCome out, the second Dark Magician!ā
Another magician in a red robe flew out of the magic circle and stood side by side with the first Dark Magician.
The NPCs next to them were extremely surprised: āHe actually summoned three monsters in one go during the opponentās turn!ā
āDonāt talk about this kind of thing, itās completely unheard of!ā
In contrast, the players were quite calm.
From their perspective, this was just a basic move.
Rishid looked gloomy: āThen can I end it now?ā
Yuei Vu smiled: āPlease.ā
""
āā¦I end my turn.ā
āMy turn! This will be the last turn! Draw!ā Yuei Vu said, āTribute the āMagicianās Robeāā¦Come on, Dark Magician Girl!ā
The Dark Magician Girl who appeared on the stage turned around and waved to the master enthusiastically, expressing her happiness for being able to help the master in person.
However, as soon as the girl turned around, she was a little frightened by such a large number of enthusiastic fans that she had inexplicably createdā¦
āDark Magician Girl, I love you!ā
āGo ahead, Iām the one who came first!ā
The Dark Magician Girl was a little surprised and pointed her little finger at herself.
Are you calling⦠me?
āAWSL, she just looked at me! My life is completeā¦ā
āI have no regret.ā
Seeing how excited the group of screwballs were, although the Dark Magician Girl didnāt understand what they were excited about, she still smiled and waved to the enthusiastic fans as a response.
Rishid narrowed his eyes: āI see. Both Dark Magician and the Mystical Beast of Serket have 2500 ATK. If you trade one Dark Magician with my monster, then use the remaining monsters to launch a total attackā¦ā
āYou think too much.ā Yuei Vu chuckled lightly and opened another card in his hand.
āActivate the Equip Spell ā Magic Formula! Equip it to a Dark Magician on the field, and increase the attack power by 700 points!ā
[Dark Magician, ATK 2500 ā ATK 3200]
Rishid gritted his teeth: āThe attack power exceeds that of the Mystical Beast of Serketā¦ā
āDark Magician, attack the Mystical Beast of Serket!ā Yuei Vu shouted, āBreak down the forbidden temple! Dark Magic Attack!ā
The Dark Magician took the order and jumped up, flying condescendingly in mid-air to charge up, and a huge pitch-black magic sphere was brewed with the wand in his hand.
The power of the Dark Magician who has been strengthened by the spell book is absolutely beyond the ability of Serket at this moment.
āThis is what Iām waiting for!ā Rishid raised his voice and swept his arms, āActivate Trap Card ā Eye of Ujat!ā
The trap card was opened, and an eye like an illusory image appeared in front of the Dark Magician. The Dark Magicianās face changed suddenly, he gritted his teeth, and the wand in his hand began to deflect direction uncontrollably.
The Dark Magician Girl was so frightened that she hurriedly took a step back and guarded her with a small staff in front of her vigilantly.
āEye of Ujat can confuse the opponentās monster, change the opponentās monsterās attack target so that it hits his teammates,ā Rishid said.
Yuei Vu waved his hand: āThis kind of low-level trap is useless to the top magician among magicians! Itās invalid!ā
""
As soon as the voice fell, the phantom eye that emerged immediately disappeared, as if it had received an absolutely irresistible order.
āWhat!?ā Rishid was taken aback.
Is Dark Magician really that powerful? Are all trap cards invalid?
How did I not hear it before?
āOnly when there is a Dark Magician on your field, I can banish āMagician Navigationā in my GY to negate the effect of a Spell or Trap Card on the opponentās field until the end of this turn!ā As Yuei Vu spoke, a black magic circle was opened on the ground, and the trap card swirled and jumped from it. Come out, āThe effect of Eye of Ujat has been negated, so the Dark Magicianās attack continues!
Dark Magic Attack! ā
The impact of the magic was like a straight shot of a javelin, shattering the sturdy shell of the holy beast, and piercing its body from front to back.
The holy beast who guarded the temple let out a groan, and finally was no match for the spell of the top magician, and his body was torn apart.
[Rishid, LP 4000 ā LP 3300]
There was still a Dark Magician Girl and another Dark Magician on the Yuei Vu field who did not attack, and the success of the follow-up attack would directly declare the victory of the duel.
āUhā¦then I activate the trap again!ā Rishid yelled, āTrap Card ā Time Machine! When a monster is destroyed by battle, return the destroyed monster to the field in the same position! Come back! Come on, Mystical Beast of Serket!ā
āItās invalid!ā Yuei Vu waved and shouted.
As he said, white smoke appeared on the trap card in front of Lishid, and the card began to become transparent. Then it disintegrated, dissipated, and disappeared completely.
āWhat⦠what!?ā Rishidās surprise was no trivial matter.
He saw another pitch-black vortex open at Yuei Vuās feet, and a red card flew out, spinning several times in mid-airā¦
ā¦It was āMagician Navigationā!
āMagician Navigation?ā Rishid exclaimed, ābut this card has just beenā¦ā
āThatās right, the Magician Navigation just now was removed after the effect was activated, but what Iām activating now is the second āMagician Navigationā in the GY!ā Yuei Vu said loudly.
āThe second one? But when⦠donāt tell me!?ā
Rishid looked at the second Dark Magician on the field in surprise and immediately thought of Yuei Vuās last operation in the previous roundā¦
⦠āMagicianās Robe can special summon āDark Magicianā from the deck by discarding a Spell Trap Card during the opponentās turn!ā
Rishid suddenly said, āCould it be that timeā¦ā
āThatās right. Although due to the effect of āTemple of the Kingsā, I can only set one card to the field in one turn.ā Yuei Vu said lightly, āBut I activated the effect of āMagicianās Robeā to Special Summon the second Dark Magician. At that time, what was discarded from the hand as the costā¦is this second āMagician Navigationā.ā
Rishid was stunned.
Special Summon the Magicianās Robe from the deck with the effect of the first Navigation and then use the cost of activating the Magicianās Robe to discard the second Navigation to the Graveyard.
Two Magician Navigations, twice negationā¦
ā¦ā¦ Did he actually calculate to such an extent?
