When a card game club is pulled into the Yu-Gi-Oh! world by the system

Anyway, I'm not using the Insect Girl deck right now.

"I activate the Spell Card 'Ancient Rules' to Special Summon 'Millennium Shield' in Defense Position. End of turn."

Millennium Shield

Normally: It is said to be a legendary shield passed down from the royal family of ancient Egypt. Legend has it that it can withstand even the strongest attacks.

"Oh, 3000 points of defense! Even the Blue-Eyes White Dragon couldn't break through that defense!"

"That young man is probably going to lose."

Looking at the shield in front of him, Chang Yan felt nothing at all; in fact, he almost wanted to laugh.

Hehe, let's finish this in one round.

"My turn, draw a card. Activate the Spell Card [Fusion]. I use [Predatory Plant Snake Bottle Grass Cobra] and [Predatory Plant Sundew Frilled Lizard] from my hand as Fusion Materials to Fusion Summon—"

"Appear, [Predatory Plant Chimera Flower]!"

Nani, fusion!

The plump, bloated green body and the exaggeratedly large, purple-pink petals fluttered slightly in the breeze. The petals enveloped the bud in the center, but upon closer inspection, one would be horrified to discover that the so-called "bud" was actually a gaping maw full of sharp teeth.

Mechanical vines extended from the torso, but at the ends of the vines were flat, gaping mouths, dripping disgusting saliva onto the ground, glaring menacingly at the girl opposite.

This is a purely carnivorous flower.

Okay, that's terrifying!

The girl opposite was terrified; why would there be such a terrifying flower?

"Activate the effect of [Predatory Plant Chimera Flower]: Once per turn, you can target 1 monster on the field whose Level is lower than or equal to this card's Level; banish that monster. I choose [Millennium Shield]. Chimera Flower is Level 7, and Millennium Shield is Level 5, so let it be banished."

A huge mouth shot out from a vine in an instant, like a python swallowing an elephant. The bloody maw mercilessly swallowed the Millennium Shield, and one could vaguely see the process of the Millennium Shield being gradually digested and decomposed from the bulging vine.

"My Millennium Shield!"

The girl let out a pitiful cry.

Oh no, now I can't use my [right hand to shield, left hand to sword] skill.

Switch to shield with right hand and sword with left hand

Normal Magic

Effect: Before the end of this turn, when this card is activated, the original ATK and DEF of all face-up monsters on the field alternate.

She originally planned to use this card to replace the attack and defense of the [Millennium Shield], and then crush the opponent in one fell swoop.

Now, it's all over.

What a rare dream start! (Not really)

Chapter Eight New Mission

(The rules of Duel City are rubbish; Fusion Monsters can only attack in the next turn. I almost forgot about it if a fellow reader hadn't reminded me.)

(Okay, let me add a setting: the protagonist bought the [Quick Attack] card at this point.)

(I'm really sorry about the bug.)

(However, there are still many ways to kill it in one go, so don't worry too much about it.)

------

However, I said I'd resolve it in one round, and I meant I'd resolve it in one round.

I always keep my word.

"I haven't performed a normal summon yet this turn. Normal summon: [Predatory Plant Venus Flytrap Spinosaurus]."

A large lizard with a Venus flytrap on its back appeared on the field, its six bright red eyes mercilessly staring at the trembling girl—

That's the look in someone's eyes when looking at prey.

So scary, I'm shaking.

Venus flytrap spiny dragon

Race: Plant

Attribute: Dark

Star rating: 4

Attack: 1800

Defense: 0

Effect: ①: If this card is Normal or Special Summoned, you can target 1 face-up monster your opponent controls; place 1 Predator Counter on that monster. Any Level 2 or higher monster with a Predator Counter becomes Level 1.

②: This effect can be activated after damage calculation when this card battles a monster whose Level is lower than this card's. Special Summon 1 "Predator" monster from your Deck except "Predator Plant Venus Flytrap Spinosaurus".

......

"Since you have no monsters on your field, the effect of Venus Flytrap Spinosaurus cannot be activated, but the battle is over. Entering the Battle Phase, [Venomous Plant Venus Flytrap Spinosaurus] attacks directly!"

The Venus flytrap quickly ran up to the girl and bit her without mercy, causing her to scream.

"what--"

Unfortunately, our Chang ruthlessly issued the attack command again.

"Because of the rules of Duel City, Fusion Monsters must wait until the next turn to attack, so I activate the Spell Card [Quick-Play]. This card allows Fusion Monsters to attack during the turn they are Fusion Summoned."

"【Predatory Plant Chimera Flower】Direct Attack."

This time, the Chimera Giant Flower didn't use its predatory organs to attack its opponent. Instead, it used the large mouth on its vines to shoot a thick venom at the opponent.

These rubbish rules take up my spot and prevent me from using my character.

You piece of trash, seahorse. I'll beat you up sooner or later.

Passerby Girl's LP: 4000→2200→0

Winner - a common saying

"Alright, deck and puzzle cards. Don't worry, I don't even want your Millennium Shield."

Seeing the girl's reluctant expression, Chang Yan said impatiently.

Seriously, they treat this kind of card like a treasure.

"You said it, you can't go back on your word!"

The girl's eyes lit up immediately, and she quickly drew out the Millennium Shield before handing the deck to Chang Yan.

Hehe, looks like this man is quite a gentleman...

Then she recalled Chang Yan's ruthless demeanor when he gave the attack order...

The preface is retracted; he's a guy who doesn't care about girls.

Sure enough, there weren't any good cards.

Hmm, never mind, I'll choose this card.

After picking out a regular spell card, Chang Yan handed the deck back.

"Hmm, which card did he choose... [I am the shield]?"
