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

As the cards scattered, the LP of the game also decreased again.

However, the decrease in value is very strange and does not seem to be combat damage.

"Beep beep beep beep——————"

Cruise control, LP: 900→486

The people in the audience were taken aback.

"What?! What's going on?"

"Did the Dark Magician in the game... engage in combat at the same time that the Card Hunter Reaper launched his attack?"

"No, it's another face-down card in the game that activated its effect!"

Everyone looked over and saw that the card on the far right of the back row was emitting a strange purple light. It was a trap card exclusive to the Spellcaster class - Magician's Choice!

"What a pity, Youche," Wang Yang laughed. "Your Hunter card, Death, ultimately chose the wrong target!"

"The instant you launch your attack, I choose to use another trap card!"

"You can only activate this skill when you have a Magician monster on your field and your opponent's monster attacks. Negate that attack and destroy the monster with the lowest ATK on your opponent's field!"

"Because this is considered an effect disruption, you will also suffer 30% of the Death Hunter's attack power as base damage!!"

The monster that was incredibly troublesome for Yugi was finally dealt with, but next he would have to face the demon Zoa, whose attack power was far superior!

"But I still have one monster on my field!" Yu Che exclaimed. "Demon Zoa's attack power is exactly one hundred higher than Dark Magician's! Go! Demon Zoa, attack Dark Magician!!"

"roar------------"

The enormous demon roared, and surging dark energy gathered between its crossed hands!

It used all its strength to unleash the energy blast it had gathered, and the battlefield seemed to be distorted by that eerie and terrifying energy the moment the attack was launched!

"Hmph~" A hint of smugness flashed in Wang Yang's eyes. "Want to defeat my Dark Magician? Not so easy!"

"Spell Card activated—Monster Resurrection!!"

"Resurrect Chaos Warrior from the graveyard!!!"

Chaos Warrior

[Eight Stars]

[Earth Attribute/Warrior Race]

[Attack/Defense: 3000/2500]

"Next up is this card—Shield of Counterattack!"

"Use the Chaos Warrior as a sacrifice, and add his defense stat to the Dark Mage's attack stat!!"

"The Chaos Warrior's defense is 2500!! Therefore, the Dark Mage's attack power will ultimately become 5000!!!"

The Chaos Warrior, resurrected once again, sacrificed his life and absorbed the energy of the strongest warrior. The Dark Mage also seemed to undergo a transformation.

Already powerful, he became even more aloof and arrogant after gaining an attack power of up to 5000!

"Beep beep beep beep————————"

Dark Magician, Attack Power: 2500 → 5000

Is it another animation card?

Moreover, the effect doesn't seem to last until the end of the turn!

In other words...

As long as the Dark Magician isn't destroyed, his attack power will remain at 5,000!

You Che's pupils trembled, but he obviously didn't have time to think about what would happen next. Under the attack of the demon Zoa, the black mage launched a counterattack. He had to stop this attack from happening, otherwise he would have his basic points wiped out by the high combat damage!

Tsk!

Although I had considered that Yugi would activate a trap card, I never expected it to be this kind of combo!

There's only one way to resolve this crisis right now: even if it means losing money on your credit card, there's nothing else you can do...

"Spell Card Activated - Dimensional Resurrection!" Two cards were simultaneously thrown from Yugi's hand. "Discard one card from your hand, Special Summon one banished monster to your field in Attack Position! Equip this card!"

"The monster I choose to revive from the Exclusion Zone is—Evil Spirit Evil Suffering!!"

A dark red tadpole swam out from the space-time rift. It looked at the two powerful monsters beside it with dull and bewildered eyes, having no idea what had happened.

[Stop the suffering of evil spirits]

One star

[Water Attribute/Aquarium]

[Attack/Defense: 0/0]

"And this card too—the Ritual Spell Card! Doomsday!" Yu Che exclaimed, "It uses Evil Spirit Evil Bitterness and Demon Zoa as materials!"

"Ritual Summoning - Luin, Goddess of Ruin!!"

"Since the demon Zoa who launched the attack disappeared from the field, the attack was forcibly terminated!!"

The ritual, radiating a dark purple light, swallowed the two monsters on the field, and a tall goddess holding a staff slowly emerged from the purple light.

However, with her power, she was no match for the dark mage with 5000 attack power!

Upon entering the scene, she decisively held the scepter in front of her, assuming a defensive stance.

【Luin, the Goddess of Ruin】

[Eight Stars]

[Light Attribute/Angel Race]

[Attack/Defense: 2300/2000]

The attack that nearly caused Youche to lose was forcibly stopped.

The spectators couldn't help but exclaim:

"No matter how you look at it, Youche is at a huge disadvantage..."

"Yes, and in the next round, the Goddess of Destruction will also be defeated by the Dark Magician."

"By the way, in the Castle Field, can't Ritual Summoning use monsters from the hand as materials? Why does Yuzuriha insist on reviving the Tadpole from the banished zone?"

"Perhaps... the monster cards I have are more important..."

What Jonouchi and the others didn't know was that most of the Ritual Spell Cards in the current era used monsters of a certain level or higher as materials, while the "Doomsday" card required that the monsters used as materials be exactly level eight.

However, besides this, the ability to pull back evil spirits and stop suffering has another crucial function!

After the battle phase ended, Youche quickly organized his thoughts and used his recent embarrassing survival skills to launch a counterattack: "I haven't performed a normal summon this turn."

"Just now, the evil spirit Xie Kuzhi, which was resurrected from the Exclusion Zone, was sent to the graveyard."

"So my combo of summoning the Death Frog was successful!"

"Defense status activated! Death Frog!!"

"Activate its effect: Since there is one Evil Spirit in my Graveyard, I can Special Summon a Death Frog from my hand or Deck!"

"Quack quack ...

Two crisp yet slightly eerie croaks rang out, and two seemingly ordinary yet terrifying giant green frogs leaped into the battlefield.

[Death Frog]

【Five stars】

[Water Attribute/Aquarium]

[Attack/Defense: 1900/0]

"You want to collect three Death Frogs and then activate the spell card Death Chorus?" King Yu was extremely confident in his judgment. "But shouldn't you have already thrown Death Chorus into the graveyard before?"

"The turn I activated the spell card Soul Liberation to banish your Evil Souls of Suffering, you used up all your cards."

"If I'm not mistaken, the spell card discarded when the double spell was activated was Death Chorus, right?"

"In this case, your Death Frog can only be used to fuse and summon three Death Frogs."

"However, a card can only be placed in a deck up to three times. Even if the Three Dead Frogs can increase their attack power through the Yomi Frog in the graveyard, they are still no match for Dark Magician."

What Wang Yang said was absolutely correct.

No matter how you look at it, the move of summoning the Death Frog by Youche seems unable to reverse the current stalemate.

The black magician, with an attack power of 5,000, stood like an insurmountable mountain in his way, and he was completely unable to turn the tide with only three monsters.

And so, after summoning two Death Frogs, Youche ended his turn immediately. Apart from Pegasus, no one present knew what his plan was.

Using his Millennium Eye, Pegasus easily saw through Yuzuru's thoughts. He smiled slightly and took a sip of his red wine: "Yuzuru Boy, your idea is indeed very bold... However, Game Boy's strength is by no means inferior to yours. Perhaps this kind of counterattack is not the best way~"

"Hmph~" Wang Yang smiled slightly, "Although I don't know what you're planning, I will never give up this opportunity to attack!"

"The Dark Magician's attack power remains at five thousand!"

"My turn! Draw a card!"

"Put a card in the stamp!"

"Enter battle phase, launch an attack on the Death Frog!!"

"Dark Magician!!!"

King Yuuki had learned about the Ruin, the goddess of destruction, and he knew very well that it was just an offensive monster.

Compared to the monster whose attack power is far inferior to that of the Dark Magician, the Death Frog, which has the potential to create terrifying combos, is clearly a more worthy target.

Wang Yang wasn't sure if Yu Che had a second copy of Death Chorus in his deck, but at least he hadn't been able to play that card since he only had two Death Frogs on the field.

If we don't find a way to destroy the Death Frog now, our current advantage could very well be reversed by a single card!

"drink!!!!!"

Borrowing the power of the Chaos Warriors, the Dark Mage, brimming with immense magical power, roared and pointed his staff at a seemingly innocent frog monster.

But in that instant, Yuche flipped up his last face-down card and responded: "Trap Card - Enemy Attack Alert!"

"You can activate this effect when your opponent's monster declares an attack; Special Summon 1 monster from your hand!"
