Yu-Gi-Oh!: This is the real duel!

Before the battle phase was even over, Yu Che immediately had Yu Yu Wang launch a direct attack on the empty field of the insect moth: "Quick-Play Spell Card activated - Vanity Giant Shadow!!"

"At the instant Yoyo-Wang launches his direct attack, his attack power will increase by 1000!!"

"boom------------------"

"Beep beep beep beep————————"

Insects, feather moths, LP: 4000→2700

Under the influence of the Orichalcos barrier, all damage materialized like in a dark game. The intense impact knocked the small insect moth to the ground, leaving him pale and disheveled. One of the lenses of his glasses even cracked.

"Cough—cough cough—"

Crimson blood coughed up from the insect moth's mouth. Having almost never experienced a dark duel, he knew for the first time what true pain was.

At the moment the battle phase ended, the lone Yoyo and Yoyo King were shattered into pieces due to the effect of Courageous Attack. However, as Yoyo King left the field, beams of light lit up one after another on the field, and all four Yoyos returned to the battlefield.

"When Yoyo leaves the field, I can Special Summon Yoyo from my Graveyard if possible!" Yuche set a face-down card and said coldly, "Set three cards, end turn!"

"Tsk! Another one that's impossible to kill, like a tumbler..." The pale-faced insect moth forced himself to stand up straight, annoyed as he drew a card, and shouted, "But in the end, these pieces of trash of yours are just food for the Queen!!"

"My card spirit hasn't even made its appearance yet, Youche!!"

"Now I'll show you the terrifying power of the ultimate mutant insect queen!!"

"My turn!! Draw a card!!!"

Chapter 239 Attack Power 8900! The Ultimate Strike to Annihilate Insects and Moths!

"My turn! Draw a card!!"

"Whoosh——————————————"

Beneath the dazzling, evil light of the Orichalcos barrier, the insect-moth, driven to the brink of despair, wiped the blood from the corner of its mouth and drew a card from its deck while shouting loudly.

As if in gratitude for the nourishment of the Insect Moth, or perhaps due to the control of the Mega Evolution Cocoon, the card that unleashed an arc of light was none other than the Insect Moth's strongest monster card—Ultimate Mutant Insect Queen!

Hahahahahahahahaha!!!

The insect-moth, whose face had been deathly pale, began to laugh wildly. Its bloodless cheeks gradually flushed red with excitement. It revealed its trump card and shouted at You Chexuan:

"Look! Youcha!!"

"With the help of the Card Spirits, every draw by the Duelist will be a god-tier draw!!"

"Next, let the mighty ultimate mutant insect queen devour all those weaklings on your field, bite by bite!!"

"Attack signal summoned - Substitute locust killer!!"

Amidst the shifting light, a giant locust formed from the spiritual power of an insect moth appeared from the card. Immediately afterward, he unleashed his skillful combo centered around sacrificing monsters.

[Attack/Defense: 1000/1200]

"Spell Card activated—Spike God's Insecticide!!" Insect Moth swung the card, then inserted the Ultimate Mutant Insect Queen into the Duel Disk. "This card will destroy all Insect-Type monsters on the field, and when the current Locust is sent from your field to the Graveyard, you can Special Summon 1 Insect-Type monster from your hand!!"

"Feast to your heart's content!! My ultimate monster, a fusion of beauty and terror!!"

"The ultimate mutant insect queen!!!"

"Sizzle————————————————————"

Large swaths of insecticide spray spread across the battlefield like a mist, instantly covering the battlefield of insects and moths.

The sound of bubbles melting bodies emanated from the medicinal mist, and gradually, a gigantic figure appeared amidst the shrieks!

As the mist dissipated, a ferocious giant worm with vibrant colors burst forth from the ground. As it spread its wings, its queenly face, resembling a human but devoid of emotion or expression, was revealed on the battlefield, baring a pair of sharp, sticky fangs!

The Ultimate Mutant Insect Queen

[Earth Attribute/Insect Tribe]

[Attack/Defense: 2800/2400]

The terrifying sense of oppression immediately overwhelmed me.

But gazing up at this giant insect, none of the moths felt any fear. At this moment, their hearts were filled only with anger—anger at this killing machine and anger at the insect moth itself!

"Hehehe~ Stunned, aren't you, Youche?" The insect-moth grinned smugly. "Now, let it give you a proper burial!!"

"Quick-Play Spell Card activated - Time Leap!!"

"Under the effect of this card, neither side can perform any actions, forcibly advancing three rounds!!"

"At the same time, the effect of the Ultimate Mutant Insect Queen is triggered: As long as this card is on the field, during both players' End Phases, Special Summon one Insect Monster Token to your field!!"

"Each player has three end phases, which means they can summon a total of six tokens. However, I only have four monster zones left on my field, so I'll just summon four!!"

"Gurgle—"

"Gurgle—gurgle—"

In the rapidly flowing space and time, sticky insect eggs were slowly laid down, and in just a few seconds, the area where the insects and moths roe were kept was completely covered.

[Insect Monster Derivatives]

[Attack/Defense: 100/100]

"Enter battle phase!!" the Insect Moth roared, "Ultimate Mutant Insect Queen!! Attack the lone Yuyu!!!"

"Hiss—Crack—"

With its enormous, foul-smelling mandibles wide open, the ultimate mutated insect queen roared ferociously and spewed out a stream of viscous, potent acid that melted a writhing monster!

The sound of a card shattering rang out, and a Yoyo was sent directly to the graveyard.

A powerful impact swept towards the player, but with the reveal of a face-down card, all the battle damage was neutralized!

"Continuous Trap Card activated—Soul Barrier!" Yu Che exclaimed. "As long as there is a monster on my field, all battle damage I receive becomes zero!!"

"Forced into defense, huh? But since I can't harm you, I'll wipe out all your trash!!" Insect Moth sneered. "The effect of the Ultimate Mutant Insect Queen!! At the end of this card's damage step, you can Tribute 1 monster on your field to continue attacking!!"

"You have three weak minions on your field, while I have a full four tokens!!"

"Under the Queen's powerful onslaught, all your monsters will be completely shattered!!"

"Enjoy this feast to the fullest, Queen of Insects!!!"

You Che's gaze turned cold, and he shouted, "When you destroyed the first Yo-Yo, the Continuous Spell Card 'Raging Yo-Yo' triggered its effect!! This turn, all the Yo-Yo on my field will have their ATK increased to 3000!!"

The deaths of their comrades once again enraged all the "Tofu Angels." Their originally weak bodies swelled rapidly, and driven by powerful energy, their forms turned a dangerous crimson red. The moment the question mark antennas on their heads transformed into exclamation marks, the Yoyos' combat power broke through to its limit!

"Beep beep beep beep——————————"

Yoyo, Attack Power: 300 → 3000

"Useless! You're useless!" the Insect Moth laughed smugly. "Have you forgotten? I have the powerful Field Card you gave me—Orichalcum Barrier—on my field!!"

"This card will increase the Ultimate Mutant Insect Queen's attack power by 500 points. With this boost, your 3,000 attack power is nothing to worry about!!"

"Ultimate Mutant Insect Queen!! Wipe out all those scum!!!"

"Bang bang bang————————————"

The sound of cards shattering rang out one after another, and all three Yo-Yo were instantly obliterated!

After each attack, the ultimate mutant insect queen would swallow an insect egg to replenish her energy, and as the sticky juices splashed everywhere, the battlefield was left in a mess.

The smug insect-moth curled its lips into a smile, set up two face-down cards, and chuckled:

"Then my battle phase is over. I'm not as reckless as you, forcing an attack even on a monster with less than 500 attack power."

"But then again, you're just blinded by anger. I understand you're about to wash away all your humiliation."

"During Main Phase Two, I set two cards and equipped the Ultimate Mutant Insect Queen with the Spell Card - Mist-like Body! With this card present, the equipped monster cannot be destroyed by battle~"

The insect moth wiped its glasses in its hand, then put them back on, striking a triumphant pose as it quipped:

"Now, my ultimate combo is perfectly realized~"

"As long as there are other Insect-Type monsters on my field, the Ultimate Mutant Insect Queen will grant all Insect-Type monsters on my field full effect resistance. Not only will they not be destroyed by my opponent's effects, but they will also not be targeted by my opponent's effects~"

"With its mist-like body, the ultimate mutant insect queen will become an indestructible and indestructible final creature!!"

Such a combo was indeed terrifying during the DM era, but Youche immediately saw the flaw in this tactic: "Is that so? But as long as you eliminate the other insect monster derivatives, your so-called resistance will cease to exist."

The insect-moth chuckled, "Truly worthy of being called the King of Duels!"

"You're right, that's why I prepared cards in advance to compensate for this deficiency!!"

"Now, my turn is over!!"

"And the instant you draw your card, I activate the Trap Card—Erosion Scales!!"

"Equip this card as an Equip Card to the Ultimate Mutant Insect Queen. From this moment on, you will be unable to attack any other Insect-Type monsters on my field!!"

"Youcha~ Insect tactics are all about the combination of monsters and equipment! Now, I've perfected it!!" Insect Moth adjusted its glasses and sneered, "And this combo was just something I came up with the moment I obtained the Ultimate Mutant Insect Queen~"

"See? If we're talking about brains, I, the champion, am no less capable than you, the Duel King!"

"And even if you also control card spirits, you don't have enough power to contend with me!!"

"Prepare for a humiliating defeat, and at the same time, sacrifice yourself to the Orichalcos Barrier, surrendering all the honors you deserve as the Duel King!!!"

"Haha ...

The insect-like moth's shrill laughter echoed within the eerie Orichalcos barrier, but it was quickly interrupted by the reappearance of three Yo-Yo.

"What?!" the insect-moth exclaimed in surprise. "How come those three bastards are back again?! Could it be... the Three White Bone Zone?!"

"No," two cards were revealed in the back row, and Youche made the final judgment, "This is not a three-bone zone, but a combo of resurrection and swarm tactics!"

"At the same time you activated the Fog Body, I activated the Continuous Trap Card - Swarm Tactics."

"The effect of this card is that during the End Phase of each turn, for each Level 2 or lower Normal Monster that I destroy by battle this turn, I can Special Summon 1 Level 2 or lower Normal Monster from my Deck."
