Chapter 102 Please start your performance

"It's better to use this deck when playing against you."

You Xuan pulled out a deck of cards from the card box behind him and inserted it into the duel disk.

"Oh, it doesn't matter what I use." The beetle was quite confident, "In front of the power bestowed on me by the true God, any deck is equally weak.

Through the ritual of battle, become a sacrifice to my Lord!"

"Duel!" x2
"Attack me first, draw cards." You Xuan said, "First use the magic card 'Pot of Greed' and draw two cards from the deck.

Add another monster to the field. Then activate this card—"

The image of the magic card appeared in front of him.

“Magic Card-Stupid Burial!
Send a monster card from your deck to the Graveyard."

You Xuan pulled out a card that popped out from the deck.

"Send 'Killer Snake' from your deck to the graveyard!"

He then drew two more cards.

"Gev has two cards on the field, and the round is over."

Beetle Knight: "Then it's my turn, draw a card!

Activate the magic card 'Hand Erase', discard all cards in your hand to the graveyard, and then draw the same number of cards as the discarded hand. "

Beetle Knight draws a card again, then reveals a card in his hand.

"Next is the effect of this guy in your hand."

He showed a monster card in his hand.

"Giant Borer can be Special Summoned directly by removing Insects from the Graveyard from play!"

The Beetle Knight drew a card that popped out from the graveyard.

"I remove the Dragonfly I just discarded to the Graveyard from play and Special Summon Giant Borer!"

The soil beneath the site loosened, and a hideous giant insect squirmed out from underneath, revealing its hideous mouthparts covered in mucus.

[Giant Earthworm, attack power 1900]

"Then activate the Spell Card 'Resurrection of the Dead'! Revive the monsters in the graveyard!

I will revive this card that I discarded to the Graveyard!
Resurrect the 'Resonance Bug'!"

[Resonance Bug, Attack Power 1000]

You Xuan raised his eyebrows.

Regardless of the strength of the opponent's deck, this "Resonance Bug" is a good thing.

When Resonance Bug is sent from the field to the Graveyard, you can select a Level 5 or higher Insect-Type monster from your Deck. When this card is removed from play, you can select another Insect-Type monster from your Deck and send it to the Graveyard.

Seeing this card, You Xuan naturally thought of Watanabe Shuichi's Tamashi, the Demon Shovelworm. In fact, although the Insect family is relatively unpopular, in the early environment, the Demon Shovelworm is a high-level fighter that can jump out directly by banishing two insects from the graveyard, and its quality is still quite good.

If the Resonance Bug is sent from the field to the Graveyard, you can directly retrieve the Level 2800 Demon Shovel Bug from the deck. Then the Demon Shovel Bug's effect will remove the Resonance Bug from the Graveyard and Special Summon it, directly adding a attack power hitter while also allowing the deck to stack the Graveyard again.

Well, although You Xuan has no interest in insect-themed card decks, it is always a good idea to be prepared, and it is always a good idea to have one of these free things.

Anyway, by the time this game is over, it will probably become ownerless.

"Let's fight. Use 'Giant Borer' to attack the covered monster first!"

The Earthworm burrowed into the ground, and broke out from You Xuan's half of the field just one second later. The covered card flipped over, and the projection that appeared on the field was a little penguin holding a sword.

"Effect of Penguin Soldier." You Xuan waved his hand, "When this card is flipped, you can select up to two monsters on the opponent's field and return them to the owner's hand.

I choose 'Giant Earth Borer' and 'Resonance Bug' and return them to my hand!"

Beetle Knight: “!”

Both monsters returned to his hand, and his field suddenly became empty.

"Tsk, it's actually the effect of returning the cards to hand."

The two insects he summoned instantly were not just for attacking. The effect of the "resonance insects" was also his hidden trick.

Whether through battle or effect destruction, as long as the opponent defeats the Resonance Bug, he can retrieve the ace monster "Devil Shovel Bug" given to him by God from the deck and launch a general attack in one fell swoop.

But since the cards bounced back into his hand, his subsequent arrangements were ruined.

But it doesn't matter.

"I haven't Normal Summoned this turn yet." Beetle Knight said, "Cover a monster onto the field, and then Face Down a card. The turn is over."

He put the "Resonance Bug" back on the field, and the effect was the same.

The Beetle Knight looked at his opponent sinisterly and sneered in his heart.

Come on, destroy my resonance bugs.

That will become the fuse of your defeat.

"My turn, draw a card." You Xuan said, "At this moment, the effect of the 'Killer Snake' that I discarded to the graveyard last turn is activated.

When this card is in the Graveyard, you can return it to your hand during your Standby Phase. " (Old version effect)

It looks like a weak monster, but its ability to recycle itself every turn provides it with the possibility of earning unlimited resources. It was once very active in various decks, but was eventually listed as a banned card.

The actual card didn't see the light of day until 2015, when its effect was weakened to the point where it would be removed from the game in the next turn after self-recycling.

However, the killer snake in this world is of course an old version, and it looks like a trash card that no one cares about. You Xuan easily bought three without much effort.

"Magic Card 'Angel's Charity', draw three cards from your deck, and discard two cards from your hand." You Xuan sent two cards from his hand to the graveyard.

"Then, with the effect of the discarded 'Black Forest Witch', when it is sent to the Graveyard, you can add a monster with a defense of 1500 or less from your deck to your hand.

The card I want to add from my deck to my hand is this one."

You Xuan pulled out a card and showed it.

"'Abyss Soldier' ​​with a defense strength of 1300."

The deck was automatically shuffled on the duel disk. He first added the Abyss Soldier to his hand, and then revealed another card in his hand.

"Continuous magic 'Water Barrier'!
Once per turn, when you have no monsters on the field, Special Summon a Level 4 or lower WATER monster from your hand.

I Special Summon 'Abyss Soldier' ​​from my hand!"

[Abyss Soldier, Attack Power 1800]

Beetle Knight's face remained expressionless.

Come on, attack, attack my resonance bug
"The effect of 'Abyss Soldier' ​​is activated." You Xuan said, "Once per turn, discard a Water monster in your hand and return a card on the field to the owner's hand.

I discard a Water-attribute Killer Snake from my hand and return the monster you covered to my hand."

Beetle Knight: “!?”

Return the cards?

He appeared on the stage twice and left it twice. Looking at the resonance insect that turned into a golden light and flew back to his hand again, the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

Today, I can't get out of this worm, right?
You Xuan: "Then I Normal Summon a second 'Abyss Soldier'."

[Abyss Soldier, Attack Power 1800]

Again! ?
The Beetle Knight's eyes narrowed.

That won't work!

"Activate the face-up card, the Trap Card 'Drop Hole'!" Beetle Knight shouted, "When a monster with an attack power of 1000 or more is summoned, it will be destroyed immediately!"

"Mu Da."

You Xuan calmly turned the backcourt.

"Perpetual Trap - Notice from the Royal Palace! All Trap Cards in the field have become invalid!"

Beetle Knight: "Nangduoduo (what did you say)!?"

So he could only stare with wide eyes and watch his fall hole being bound by the irresistible force of the trap and exploded into pieces with a snap.

Even Judai, who was watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but look at him strangely.

It's really rare that You Xuan would bring something like this himself.
In this case, wouldn't he be unable to use the trap himself?
Wouldn’t that be very uncomfortable for You Xuan’s style?
"Fight, direct attack of two 'Abyss Soldiers'!"

The two soldiers flew out, swinging their tridents. The tridents cut through the beetle in a stream of water, and the beetle screamed like a pig being slaughtered and fell to the ground.

[Beetle Armor Knight, LP 4000 → LP 400]

"He beat her down to only 400 HP in one go."

Judai's eyes simply lit up as he looked at Yugen's back.

Amazing.

I want to fight him more and more
"Smelly boy"

The Beetle Knight stood up in a panic, blood gushing out from the cut parts of his body.

"My combat phase is over, but my turn is not."

You Xuan showed another card.

"I activate the effect of the second 'Abyss Soldier'. By discarding a Water monster from my hand, I select a card on the field and return it to the owner's hand. I discard another 'Killer Snake'."

Ten generations:"?"

Beetle Knight: “?”

Both of them were stunned at first reaction.

Do you want to bounce back the cards?

But the Beetle Knight's field had been cleared by him, and the front and back fields were as clean as a blank sheet of paper, with no cards to play.
"'Abyss Soldier' ​​can not only bounce cards on the opponent's field back to the hand, but also cards on your own field.

Therefore, I return the Continuous Trap "Notice from the Palace" on my own field to my hand!"

Ten generations:"!"

Beetle Knight: "!!!!!!"

Na. Nani! ?
Seeing the eerie trap in the backfield returning to You Xuan's hands, even the beetle, no matter how slow-witted it was, realized the seriousness of the problem.

When he wants to use a trap, the opponent will activate "Notice from the Palace" to suppress his backcourt. But once You Xuan wants to use a trap, he will use the effect of "Soldier of the Abyss" to bounce the notice back to his hand.
Beetle Knight has started to move.

Doesn't that mean that I'm the only one who can't use traps?

"Three cards are on the field, and the turn is over."

There is a notice in the backcourt, plus two indescribable unknown backcourts.

You Xuan smiled and made a gesture of invitation.

Come on, please start your performance.
