Aspiring to become a magnetic field card player!

Almost at the moment after the bird appeared on the field, he couldn't wait to slap the remaining magic cards in his hand onto the backfield - and on that card, it actually depicted the true Flame King Phoenix Phoenix flying in the flames on the spiritual field.

"Next, I activate the quick attack magic—[Flame King Flame Ring]!"

"According to this card's effect, I can use a Fire-Attribute monster on my field, [Phoenix Phoenix], and a Fire-Attribute monster in my graveyard, [Flame King Ganesh]... I can destroy the former and send it to the graveyard, and Special Summon the latter to my field!"

Even though the opposing Kiragu had no chains and let go again and again, the effect of the Flame King's Flame Ring was successfully activated, swapping the Fire attribute monsters on the Spirit Field and in the Graveyard. The Phoenix, representing the blazing fire of Nirvana, was once again destroyed and sent to the Graveyard. Instead, it was resurrected from the toilet by the invincible elephant-shaped Flame King monster holding a divine weapon: [Flame King Beast·Ganesh]!

Now that the elephant among the two heroes of Kangren has appeared, Youling can no longer hold back with the other Flame King monster in his hand. He draws out the card again and displays the pitch-black Flame King monster that he just added with the effect of the Flame King Princess high on the duel field.

"Next is... the effect of [Flame King Beast Hanuman]!"

"When a Fire monster on our side of the field is destroyed by a card effect, this card can be Special Summoned from your hand to our side of the field!"

In this way, accompanied by the roar of an unknown animal, the spirit field was densely packed with the army of the Fire King - and standing on the left and right of the Holy Fire King like guardians were none other than Ganesh and Hanuman, the two heroes of Kang people, one against the devil and the other against the monsters!

After doing this, even You Ling felt a little out of breath and had to take two deep breaths to rest. At the same time, he raised his head and looked at Jiragu opposite him. Although his face was tense, it was obvious that he was depressed and timid. You Ling couldn't help but smile slightly.

"Hehe...strong on the outside, but weak on the inside, the Seventh Emperor of Barian."

Yu Ling's rather pointed words weren't directed at the student across from him, Jiragu. He simply knew that, just like in his previous duel with Vector, his final target, Ryoga Kamishiro, was probably also standing behind Jiragu in some strange way, watching the duel.

In fact, there is no need for any unique supernatural method... After all, as another duelist who will be on the field soon, Kamishiro Ryoga is actually standing on the sidelines watching everything happening on the duel field - so, when he heard You Ling's provocative words, his expression of rage and fever can be guessed without thinking.

Of course, this outwardly strong, but inwardly weak assessment of Brother Jiragu didn't seem unfounded in You Ling's opinion... He guessed that in most previous duels, the opponent had probably relied on this Death Scythe and Giant Wrath Sword blockade, and the Ice and Fire Hands to forcibly hold on.

This kind of dueling style is just like playing a red pit five-queen deck for a long time. Although it feels very refreshing when suppressing others, and winning the game is also quite easy most of the time - but on the contrary, failure is also extremely easy. Even Yu Yanshan Linjiulin? Qijiu⑤? Bajidi who doesn't have much operation, it is difficult for the duelist's personal level to improve much.

——Just like now, when encountering a duelist like You Ling who not only has rich experience in dealing with situations but can even completely transcend the opponent's existing tactics... the failure that is going to happen is obvious.

You Ling raised his head and looked at the Kiragu opposite him along with the five Flame King monsters on his field. He also looked at Kamishiro Ryoga behind him... and looked at the last two mission targets that he had been thinking about for a long time.

"...Get ready, and end it here, Seventh Emperor of Barian!"

Volume 1: Chapter 155: A Magical, Strange, Small Trap

Jiragul on the opposite side was completely confused and bewildered by Youling's continuous operations and the storytelling of the Flame King monsters that appeared one after another.

This is not because his character is not so smart, but the operation of Youling and this deck of Flame King are too spectacular and too scary in the eyes of duelists of this era - it explodes and jumps, destroys the graveyard from the deck, and then resurrects from the graveyard. It is really too outrageous... It makes people dizzy and at a loss.

This is just like in Youling's previous life, when the Flame King deck just became popular in the OCG environment. Even many modern duelists would be completely confused when they dueled with a unique expansion deck like the Flame King for the first time. They only knew that the opponent would bomb this and that, and then a bunch of monsters would appear on the field. And combined with the previous operation of watching the opponent actively bombing, people can't help but feel that this bunch of monsters can't be bombed, and can't be solved. In short, it is quite tricky.

Fortunately, no matter how much Jiragul didn't understand, he still had a powerful friend named Ryoga Kamishiro... and the information that this good brother taught him before the duel - no matter what, Jiragul had already memorized the effects of the Flame King monsters in the Spirit Field, which were also told to him by Ryoga Kamishiro.

Therefore, Jiragu is now very clear that in this situation, he should decisively ignore the several large rocs with strong presence and amazing attack power in the spirit field - but first focus all his attention on Hanuman and Ganesh, the two Kang heroes who possess the magical monster Kang, who are gathered in the spirit field.

Unfortunately, just like what You Ling said before, "strong on the outside but weak on the inside", the overall structure and deck capabilities of Jilagu's deck are such that even though it knows what You Ling will do and the effects of You Ling's monsters, it cannot make any special response to stop You Ling's operations. It can only watch You Ling set up the scene and the monsters spread out one after another like now.

——This is actually the drawback that the defensive red pit deck in Jiragul's hand can never get rid of... Oftentimes, when the impedance trap cards that come up in the backfield cannot match the opponent's deployment route, they can only watch the opponent's mighty dragon-like random attacks and have to wait for the opponent to launch an attack before they can react.

After You Ling finished his violent performance, he raised his right hand and first launched an attack on the Holy Flame King Dapeng Phoenix standing in the front among the large number of Flame King monsters on his field.

"I'm going straight to the fucking...battle phase!"

Even when facing the opponent's unclear backfield and controlling his monsters to enter the battle stage, You Ling did not show any fear or cowardice on his face - after all, relying on the characteristics of the Flame King deck, he did not feel that he had consumed many resources after the explosive appearance of a bunch of monsters on the field.

No matter whether it is the two Dapeng or Princess Yan on his field, or the two heroes of Kangren, Hanuman and Elephant... almost every monster has the ability to counter and cycle against destruction, and their endurance is amazing. Even if they are all solved by the opponent, You Ling is confident that he can draw out an army that is equally powerful in an instant!

"First... [Holy Flame King·Roc Phoenix], attack your monster [Ancient Relic·Death Scythe]!"

——Perhaps it was because the defense of the monster [Ancient Relic Death Scythe] was only 900 points, which was too weak... Under Jiragu's command, the Ancient Relic Death Scythe on his field was in attack position, appearing with its 2200 attack points to face the Wandering Spirit.

Regarding this point, You Ling is not difficult to understand... After all, as mentioned before, the main tactic of the Jiragul deck is still the blocking extra of the Death Scythe - and in the composition of most super summoning decks, when the sealed extra cannot be super summoned, it is not too easy to summon a monster with an attack power of more than 2200 points that can directly destroy the Death Scythe.

Moreover, every card in the opponent's red pit deck is extremely critical. The opponent's Jiragul certainly does not want the five-star monster Death Scythe that he summoned with great difficulty to be killed by a monster summoned by the opponent at random.

——But even though I understand, You Ling is not immune to this and his methods are still extremely cruel... Since I chose to attack to summon the Death Scythe, then I will take all the combat damage!

“…Hmm!”

[Kiragu LP: 4000 → 2300]

Just like Jiragul's thick and strong body, he is indeed a tough guy in his duel performance - after taking the damage from the Holy Flame King, a monster with 3900 attack points, he only let out a muffled groan and didn't even move his feet.

After the attack, You Ling waited very carefully, probably waiting for the possible red pit in the opponent's backcourt - but when the opponent's health changed due to the damage and the battle process was completely completed, the opponent still did not respond.

You Ling frowned at this - but there was no need to worry about it. The only thing he had to do at this moment was actually very simple, that is to stretch out his right hand and command the Flame Kings on his field to attack again!

If you absolutely refuse to let Reimu open the remaining two backfield cards, then die here! I don't believe you'll be able to resist opening any cards for me when your health points are about to drop to zero!

"Next, [Flame King Beast Ganesh]...attacks the card [Flame Hand] on your field!"

This time, it was the turn of Ganesh, the Flame King Beast, who rushed forward with a weapon full of Indian mythology style and launched an attack on the opposing duelist—— B衣⑵Lingshaner Lingqisi VIII Although the Flame Hand on the field of Kiragu was an extremely difficult monster with the Last Word, his relatively weak attack power was a weakness that could not be ignored in terms of health value!

Then, the true flame of the Flame King Beast swept over again, but this time it only took away 200 health points of Jiragu.

[Jilagu LP: 2300 → 2100]

After his health dropped to nearly half, Jiragu just gritted his teeth and looked at the Youling field with a serious expression - his expression was as if to say that he had no solution and could only be beaten to death by Youling.

But to say that he had no means at all would be an exaggeration - in any case, at the moment when the Flame Hand was destroyed by Ganesh and sent to the graveyard, Jiragul had to stretch out his right hand and activate his monster effect to fight back.

"Then, at the moment it's destroyed in battle and sent to the graveyard... activate the effect of the card [Flame Hand] in my graveyard!"

"When this card is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard by your opponent, target a monster on your opponent's field and destroy it... Then, Special Summon another [Ice Hand] from my Deck!"

At this point, looking at the first step of resistance from the opposite side, a cold light flashed in You Ling's eyes.

As a red pit card deck with a dual-system structure, if the ancient relics are the first system used to block, interfere and attack, then the ice and fire hands system is the second system mainly used for defense... Just as You Ling thought before, it is extremely difficult to deal with and has a strong recycling ability.

Destroying one of them will make another one pop out, and at the same time, the destruction ability in the deathrattle effect will be used to play one card at a time to make up for the gap in the number of cards between this red pit deck and the opponent... Even if the opponent tries to solve it by means other than destruction, it will actually be a loss.

——After all, it’s just one monster. Once it’s summoned, the field is complete...it’s just a four-star effect monster.

Fortunately, the situation on Youling's side is almost equivalent to having prepared all the countermeasures, and the experienced two-life duelist will not make any mistakes - as the monster Kang in the Fire King's deck, the guardian god is deployed, even in this damage judgment phase, Ganesh's Divine Power can still be activated!

"Then at this moment, activate the effect of my monster on the field - [Flame King Beast Ganesh]!"

"Negative the effect of your flaming hand!"

Probably because it is still in the "damage judgment stage" and there are not many cards that can be chained, the effect of Ganesh in this step of Youling is not hindered at all, and it is still passed so easily.

"After that, due to the effect of [Ganesh], as a price, the Fire attribute monster [Holy Flame King·Roc Phoenix] on my field will be destroyed and sent to the Graveyard!" Then, You Ling decisively threw the monster that had just attacked, the big monster Roc Phoenix with 3900 attack points, into the Graveyard - You Ling knew very well that in this situation, no matter how high the attack power of Roc Phoenix seemed, it would definitely be better for it to exist in the Graveyard than on the field.

——That's right, everything was still within expectations, without any mistakes... You Ling was extremely calm at this moment. While operating, he looked calmly at Jiragu opposite him, as if he was constantly giving him a sense of oppression.

Youling's next target was the last monster in defense position on Jiragul's field: [Ancient Relic·Wrath Sword]... Perhaps because the defense of Wrath Sword was 1400 points, which was more stable than the three-digit defense of Death Scythe, Jiragul chose to special summon this Wrath Sword in defense position.

"It's not over yet... [Flamemon Hanuman] attacks your monster [Ancient Relic Rage Sword]!"

Then, another red light representing flames flashed by. Although no combat damage was caused, the last monster on the field of Kiragu, the Giant Fury Sword, was destroyed.

Up to now, all three monsters in the field of Jiragu, two ancient relics and an extremely difficult to deal with ice and fire hand combination monster have been cleared.

At this point, You Ling's tactic of wanting to pull Kacha through battle has been achieved - even at this point, his battle phase has not yet completely ended... There is still a monster on his field, [Princess of Fire·Fire Phoenix], which has not yet launched an attack.

At this point, You Ling first raised his head and glanced at Jilagu standing opposite him from a distance - surprisingly, this guy was still so patient even at this point... Did he choose not to do anything?

At this point, You Ling lowered his head, took a look at the attack power of the Vulcan Phoenix, and then looked at the remaining cards in his hand.

——Well, let me say the same thing again. If you plan to do nothing, then I will keep fighting until you make a move... I don’t believe that at the moment when your health points are about to drop to zero and your health is in danger, the opponent can still do nothing!

"——【Flame Princess·Fire Phoenix】launches a direct attack on the opposing duelist!"

Compared to You Ling who was attacking happily, Jilagu on the opposite side was tightly pursing his lips, and his expression seemed a little uncertain.

——After all, the terrifying and oppressive feeling of Youling, where each Flame King monster jumps out and attacks in turn, one after another, even after knowing the effects of the opponent's deck and what they are going to do... is still very terrifying and even a little suffocating when you experience it yourself.

Regarding this duel, Jiragul was simply speechless - Youling's side would constantly attack the entire field with monsters that would kill instantly. He had never seen such a force and oppression before.

In every previous duel, Jiragu had relied on the coordination of his Death Scythe and Ice and Fire Hands, using this unstoppable tactic to suppress his opponents and make them scream in pain... But this time, why did this tactic seem to have no effect on Youling's creature? Why did it seem that it had no effect at all on the Eight Eight Flowing Flow?

——Is this guy across from me...really playing the same Yu-Gi-Oh as everyone else?

But things have come to this point, and no matter how helpless he is, after all the defenses in the frontcourt have been broken through, Kiragu can only pull out his last trump card.

Kiragu turned his head and looked to the far right side of his backfield.

Although the opponent's Youling had to guess this and that, Jiragul, as the controller, knew it very well - it was a magical little trap with a shield-like pattern on the card image and the word "shield" in the card name.

Volume 1: Chapter 156: Balian's Sublime Power!

That card——its name is [Ripple Shield: Wave Force].

In fact, in the first round of the duel, after using the Life-Destroying Treasure Card to draw this card, Kiragudu hesitated for a moment - should he discard the Ancient Relic Monster in his hand, or choose to discard this card.

As a veteran of duels for many years, Jiragu knew the duel technique of keeping a poker face during a duel to avoid being discovered by the opponent. Although he was not that good at it, he still remembered it very clearly. He did not show any emotion whether he was hesitating or thinking, probably because the opponent's wandering spirit did not discover anything.

Therefore, now Jiragul can be considered quite fortunate that he did not discard this card before - thus, he was able to survive the attack of the raging flames of the Vulcan Phoenix, and at the same time activate this trap card whose attributes are almost opposite to those of the monster on the opponent's field.

At the moment of opening the backfield, although he did not make the classic hand gesture dance when using the [Holy Shield] type card - but Jiragu's movements inexplicably looked very real.

"Then, at the moment when your monster [Flame Princess: Fire Phoenix] launches a direct attack... open my backfield and cover!"

"——[Wave Shield·Wave Force]! Using this card's effect, when your opponent makes a direct attack, return all Attack Position monsters on your opponent's field to the Deck!"

Seeing this card, You Ling couldn't help but be stunned, and then he was shocked - what the hell is this?!

The moment he saw this card picture, You Ling almost thought he had seen it wrong - but he also knew very well that at such a critical moment in the duel, it was unlikely that he was dazzled... He was indeed hit by this extremely outrageous ripple protective shield, which was called a water shield by people in the duel in his previous life.

Watching the ripple-shaped protective shield slowly rising on the opposite side of the field of Jiragu under the effect of this thing to resist the attack of his own monster - You Ling wanted to say countless MMPs in his heart at this moment.

The first thing that came out was a full desire to complain - to be honest, even if the effect was achieved, it didn't pose much of a threat to You Ling. He just felt it was very scary and terrifying... They could even come up with such a thing.

—And why didn't the opponent have Dance in hand when he used this card? He didn't even mention "Barian's Sublime Power"...does he even understand how to use a shield card?

Complaints aside, after thinking about it for a while, You Ling probably understood that it seemed quite reasonable for this thing to appear here at this time... The opponent's deck was obviously a red pit type, and in the duel environment they were in now, choosing to put this kind of attack declaration in the deck might seem very reasonable.

It just depends on the duelist's personal choice of this attack declaration pit... Just like some people will choose the Holy Shield and dance with joy, some people will choose the Ripple Shield in order to seek a bigger comeback, and everyone can have his own reasons.

But after all, judging from the current duel environment in this world, the overall speed of the duel has not reached the terrifying level of the late Yu-Gi-Oh, and the red pit has not yet left the environment... Especially for the deck used by the opposite Jiragul, most of the red pit's tasks are just to help themselves survive and enter the next round.

Especially in a deck like Artifact Ice and Fire, the mission of the Red Pit is as simple as the essence of this deck, and can be easily summarized with a sentence "Hehe, I want to survive."

Moreover, in this environment, when the opponent has tried every possible way to break through the Death Scythe and Ice and Fire Hands, and is attacking the duelist himself with full confidence like the Wandering Spirit now, and then rushes into such a water shield, it will really feel like falling into hell... Thinking about it this way, it is really a perverted card that fits the deck type very well and makes a lot of sense.

"...It's a pity that you still - met me!"

——Others may be exhausted after completing the deployment and completely destroying the opponent's endgame, and have no countermeasures against the impromptu red pit... But You Ling is different, he still has Hanuman and Ganesh, the two Kang heroes!

"—At this moment, activate the effect of my monster [Flame King Beast Hanuman]!"

Following the command of the controller Youling, Hanuman on his field also waved his weapon, gathering the true flame power of the Flame King monster: "According to Hanuman's effect, when the opponent activates a Magic Trap, at the cost of destroying the other Flame King monsters on my field, I will negate its activation..."

——If the Ganesh in front is the guardian god of expansion... then this Hanuman is the guardian god of attack!

The final confrontation on the duel field was also quite exciting in the projection - first, the flames of the Fire Queen were blocked by the water shield, and reflected back, and all the monsters on the spirit field were bounced back into the deck, but the Fire King's fire was quickly reflected back with the help of Hanuman, dissolving the water shield on the side of Jiragu.

Looking at this scene, after being hit by this outrageous card, You Ling's expression became calmer - he knew very well that the more final the moment was, the more he had to stay calm. He was just a little bit distracted and was hit by such a weird card as the Water Cover.

You Ling looked at Jiragu, whose expression didn't change much, and vaguely realized that the duel might not end so easily. At this point, he was even looking forward to what the last hidden card on the opposite side would be - so in the next moment, You Ling really heard the voice of Jiragu on the opposite side... and the roar like an engine starting that sounded along with his command.

"Well, it's my turn to chain... C3! Open the backfield again!"

Jiragu stretched out his right hand and opened his last covered card with a muffled sound, revealing the bright red color representing the trap... and Youling noticed at first glance that it was a counterattack trap card with a counterattack symbol.

"I launch a counterattack trap... [Iron Cavalry's Thunder Hammer]!"

The moment You Ling saw the card image and heard the name, he was stunned again.

After all, he didn't know what this thing was. His only impression of it was that he seemed to have seen it once or twice in his previous life... It didn't seem to be a popular card often used by duelists in the environment, so he didn't have much impression of it.

——However, judging from the performance in this duel so far, although the opponent Jiragul is a duelist who looks a bit honest or simple, there are actually no major problems with his deck composition and playing style, and it makes sense to a certain extent. I am afraid he will not play anything too weird or inexplicable.

But You Ling didn't have to dwell on it for too long. The timely commentary from the opposing Jiragul answered all his questions: "According to the effect of this card, [Iron Cavalry's Thunder Hammer], when activated, in exchange for half my Life Points, I can negate and destroy the effects of Magic, Traps, and Monsters on the opponent's field..."

After hearing this, You Ling still didn't realize that there was anything wrong with this card, as if it was just an ordinary God-level counterattack trap.

—But in the next moment, the second half of Jiragul's words revealed the uniqueness of this card in his deck: "Next, take the card destroyed by this card's effect and the card in the Magic, Trap, and Monster Zone in the same column... destroy them all, regardless of friend or foe!"

“......!?” Hearing this, You Ling realized the problem.

——In Yu-Gi-Oh, columns are usually the most easily overlooked details, but they can occasionally play a key role... The most classic one is failing to activate a magic or trap card after you have activated a bubble column. This is one of the stupid operations that most duelists have experienced, and it is enough to make them laugh.

Fortunately, You Ling hasn't heard any news about the card Infinite Bubbles in this world yet... and before that, he hadn't seen any card effects related to columns.

So it wasn't just because of You Ling's mistake or a momentary negligence or some kind of coincidence... There was actually a card in the same vertical row of the opponent's magic trap area of the Fire King Beast Hanuman that he destroyed.

And it was that same card where Jiragu used the effect of the Relic Movement Mechanism to cover the Relic Monster on his own field...

——Its name is... [Ancient Relic: Hundred-Hit Bow]!

If you activate this Iron Cavalry's Thunder Hammer in a normal duel, and its side effects destroy the magic trap on the activater's side, it would probably be a painful operation that you will never forget... But since Jiragul put this card in his deck, it means that he had already thought of the wonderful combination of this thing and the ancient relic monsters in his deck!

——And...this guy actually managed to hit it out!

Therefore, after the results of this series of chain reactions were processed, there was naturally no countermeasure for the invincible counterattack trap Wanderer... All the monsters on his field, except for the Flame King Divine Beast Roc Phoenix in the guard position, were returned to the deck under the influence of the Ripple Shield.

And it’s not over yet - in a flash, the offensive and defensive situation on the duel field seemed to have changed. The ancient relic Hundred-Hit Bow that was destroyed by the effect of the Iron Cavalry’s Thunder Hammer suddenly emitted a dazzling green light in the Kira Ancient Cemetery!
