Chapter 103 Soldiers from the Underworld

Abyss Soldier, a monster card that made a big impact on the environment when it was first released. By discarding a card in your hand, you can bounce any card on the field, which can be used as an excellent removal effect and can also recycle cards on your own field.

It's just that because he required the discarding of water attribute monsters, and water attribute was an unpopular attribute at that time, and his effect was essentially a card loss, so due to many restrictions, he could not be integrated into other mainstream card decks at the time as a general-purpose card.

Therefore, with the wisdom of a group of card players, a deck called "Abyss Control" was born to maximize the potential of Abyss Soldiers.

As the name suggests, this is a deck that is completely based on Abyss Soldier. The best partner for Abyss Soldier is "Killer Snake", which can return unlimited cards to the duelist's hand as long as it is in the graveyard at the beginning of each round, and it is just the right unpopular water attribute, which can perfectly provide unlimited ammunition for Abyss Soldier.

However, although Abyss Control was once a top-tier deck and achieved good results, it was generally still historically classified as a "non-chaos deck" in the same environment.

Because the chaos back then was too strong.
However, Abyss Control was once the best, and You Xuan felt that its current strength was still quite good. Moreover, compared with the positive suppression power of the Chaos deck's "Dimension Slash", he felt that this tactic was actually more enjoyable.

For example, right now, you see, the beetle on the other side is so happy that it is about to scream.

Beetle Knight: "You @*%@#"

The slow-reacting Beetle brother now seems to have finally realized the horror of the opposing combination.

On the surface, Abyss Soldier seems to be just an ordinary monster that relies on losing cards to clear the field, but in fact, there are quite a lot of ways to use it in conjunction with him.

Especially for an effect like "Notice from the Palace" that is equally disgusting to both sides, if used properly it can become one-way suppression to some extent, and even turn it into double critical damage in terms of changing the opponent's mentality.

Just like the mood of Beetle Armored Knight at this moment.

When he first saw the Abyss Soldiers, he was dismissive, thinking they were just low-level trash. But now looking at those two things, they were like the real death gods from the Abyss, the kind that would not stop until they dragged people to the underworld.

"It can clear the board and open up the situation, and it can also recover to avoid being restricted by the 'Notice from the Palace'. What an interesting combination!"

Judai-san looked excited as always.

He felt that You Xuan's duels always produced various combinations that excited him. Such creative duels were really interesting, and he wanted to try a game more and more.
"Damn it, don't underestimate me. During my turn, draw a card!"

The cards were bounced back to the hand like crazy. At this time, the Beetle Knight's field was as clean as a blank sheet of paper. The life value was only 400, and the traps and tricks of the opponent's turn would be sealed by the "Notice from the Palace" on the open card, and even if a defense monster was summoned, it would be bounced back to the hand by "Abyss Soldier".

If he doesn't defeat those two abyss soldiers this round, he's finished.

"Activate the Spell Card 'Temptation of Darkness', draw two cards from your deck, then remove a Dark attribute monster from your hand from play.

According to the magic effect, I draw cards from the deck!"

After drawing two new cards, there was a glimmer of light in Beetle's eyes.

Come on, if you have this card.
"Then according to the effect of 'Temptation of Darkness', I remove the dark attribute 'Death Mosquito' from the game from my hand."

Beetle Knight showed the monster card in his hand, and a dark vortex appeared in the air. The card was immediately sucked into it as if by gravity and disappeared.

"Then Normal Summon 'Resonance Bug'!"

[Resonance Bug, Attack Power 1000]

After a series of repeated jumps, the resonance bug looked a little tired. This was the third time it had landed, and the effect had not been used once.
Throw the bug down and you win.

"Magic Card 'Hatch'!" said Beetle Knight, "Sacrifice a monster on your field and Special Summon an Insect-Type monster one star higher than the sacrifice from your deck.

I'll sacrifice the Level 4 'Resonance Bug' on the field!"

The resonance bugs dissipated from the field, opening a summoning vortex on the ground.

"So, I can Special Summon a Level 5 Insect from my Deck! This is the guy I'm going to summon—

——Level 5, Millennium Scorpion!"

The giant scorpion is like a shell condensed from the essence of the night. Its body is pitch black, its surface is glowing with a faint cold light, and its tail is dangling a terrifyingly huge poisonous hook. [Millennium Scorpion, Attack Power 2000]

"Then activate the effect of Resonance Bug!" said Beetle Knight, "When this card is sent from the field to the Graveyard, add Level 5 or higher Insect-Type cards from your Deck to your hand.

Add the level 8 'Devil Shovelworm' from your deck to your hand!"

The moment the search was completed, Beetle Knight almost burst into tears. The effect of seeing a ghost was finally released.
Things will get better next!
"The effect of 'Devil Shovelworm'!" Beetle Knight shouted, "Remove two Insect-Type monsters in your Graveyard from play, and this card can be Special Summoned directly!

I remove the 'Resonance Bug' in the graveyard and the 'Resonance Bug' discarded in the first round from the game!
Look carefully, this is the Zerg with the strongest power that God has given me—

——Level 8, Demonic Shovelworm, summon!"

The earth broke open, and the hard shell was covered with sharp protrusions and grooves. The huge shell broke through the ground, making an earth-shaking roar.

[Devil Shovelworm, attack power 2800]

"Next is the effect of Resonance Bug! When this card is banished, send all Insect-type cards except Resonance Bug from your deck to the Graveyard.

I sent Skull Face Ladybug from my deck to the Graveyard."

He sent the card retrieved from the deck to the graveyard. However, the graveyard area of ​​the duel disk soon glowed with golden light, and a ladybug with a skull pattern painted on its body appeared behind him.
"The effect of 'Skull Face Ladybug' is to restore 1000 health points when you send it to the grave!"

[Beetle Knight, LP 400 → LP 1400]

After recovering a mouthful of blood, the Beetle Knight immediately regrouped and gave the order impatiently: "Fight! Use the 'Devil Shovel Bug' to attack the 'Abyss Soldier'!"

Send these soldiers from hell away for me right now!

"Activate the face-up card, the Trap Card 'Dimensional Prison'." You Xuan calmly flipped open a backfield card, "When the opponent's monster declares an attack, remove that monster from play."

The void was shattered, the dimension was cracked. The demon shovel worm seemed to be too fierce and could not stop for a while, and crashed into the other side of the dimension.

Beetle Knight: "Aaaaaaah!!!"

Impotent Rage.JPG.

Didn’t Danshou just go directly to another dimension this time?

Can I still play cards properly?
"Then attack, 'Millennium Scorpion'! Attack! Kill that idiot."

This time there was no obstacle, and the Millennium Scorpion's attack passed smoothly. The Abyss Soldier was cut in half by the huge pincers.

[You Xuan, LP 4000→LP 3800]

superficial.

The attack was not fully effective, and there was still an Abyss Soldier left on the opponent's field.

"It's really disgusting, but 'Millennium Scorpion' will increase its attack power by 500 points when it destroys monsters in battle.

Then add two more cards to the field, and the turn is over! "

[Millennium Scorpion, attack power 2000 → attack power 2500]

Beetle Knight took a deep breath.

On the surface, the next round, the soldier from the underworld deflected his Millennium Scorpion and ended up attacking directly. The situation was overwhelmingly unfavorable to him.

but
Beetle Knight glanced at the two cover cards in the backfield from the corner of his eye.

He still has a chance!
