Chapter 126 The Ghost Hand
Manjomu: "It's my turn, draw a card!"

He was suppressed again, and his health was reversed to a disadvantageous state. Wanzhangmu gritted his teeth.

Isn't this no different from before?

So much hard work, so much preparation.
He could not allow himself to fall again. Not here, not in front of this guy again.

"Quick-Play Spell 'Burial from Another Dimension', return up to three monster cards from the Banished Zone to the Graveyard. I return 'Dark End Dragon' that was banished by VWXYZ to the Graveyard!"

The shadow of the black dragon reappeared and sank back into the whirlpool of the cemetery.

"Then activate the equipment spell 'Premature Burial'!"

Wanzhangmu showed a card.

"Pay 800 Life Points, select a monster in your Graveyard, Special Summon it in Attack Position, and equip this card!"

【Manamoku, LP 1000→LP 200】

He actively paid his health points to the Candle in the Wind, and a dark vortex erupted in the cemetery area. A dark and ferocious dragon appeared for the second time in the surging undercurrent!

"Resurrect the Dark End Dragon!"

[Dark End Dragon, attack power 2600]

The senior student in the stands: "The Dark End Dragon has been resurrected once again. In this case, if we use the Dark End Dragon's ability to eliminate VWXYZ, a direct attack will be a reversal for Manjomu."

"Indeed." The senior student next to him also nodded, "Dark End Dragon, that ace with a thousand feet of eyes, is really a monster with terrifying abilities."

"But the destruction resistance of the Dark End Dragon revived in this way also disappeared." You Xuan said, "Then activate the cover card, the trap card 'Naraku's Fall'!
When your opponent summons a monster with an attack power of 1500 or more, it is immediately destroyed and removed from play."

A dark pit opened up under the feet of the Dark Terminator Dragon, leading directly to the cave of another dimension. The Dark Terminator Dragon, which had lost its armored dragon resistance, was completely unable to resist.

"As expected, I knew it wouldn't be so easy to get through," Manzhangmu shouted, "Speed ​​attack magic 'Inside and Outside in One'!
By offering a Light or Dark monster on your field as a Tribute, you can Special Summon a Light or Dark monster with the opposite attribute from your hand! ” (Original Effect)

This is also a card with great power in the comics, and it has become a real card after more than ten years of effect modification.

"Sacrifice the dark attribute 'Dark End Dragon' on the field!"

A dark storm rolled up, and the pitch-black dragon was instantly swallowed up. Then there was an explosion of dazzling light, a shining and holy radiance, the light was like the rising sun, piercing through the curtain of darkness.

"Dispel the darkness, shine the light, illuminate the path to victory -

——Glorious End Dragon, summon!!!"

Emerging from the light, a huge and majestic dragon, its eyes like dazzling diamonds, its spread wings like huge wings of light, blooming a dazzling curtain of light, like a sacred halo, displaying majesty and power to the fullest.

[Glorious End Dragon, attack power 2600]

This was also the first time that Wanzhangmu showed his new trump card in public. With such a powerful and beautiful posture, the sacred and glorious dragon clan formed a sharp contrast with the dark dragon that just went down.

"You still have some strategies for traps?" You Xuan smiled. "That's quite a progress."

"Hmph, so much for your irritating attitude!"

Wanzhangmu showed two more cards.

"Spell Card 'Strange Clover'! By discarding a Level 4 Plant-Type Monster from your hand, a monster on your field can attack twice this turn!

I discard the Plant-type 'Killer Tomato' in my hand, so that 'Glorious End Dragon' can attack twice!"

The senior student on the stage frowned in confusion: "But even so, the attack power of the Shining End Dragon is not as strong as the Dragon Assault Cannon, so it is meaningless even if the number of attacks is increased."

But no one doubted that Wanzhangmu had a backup plan.

"Fight, use 'Glorious End Dragon' to attack 'VWXYZ-Shenlong Assault Cannon'!"

People outside the stadium: "Use a monster with low attack power to attack!?"

Manjomu shouted, "At this moment, the effect of 'Glorious End Dragon' is activated! When the Glorious End Dragon is in battle, its own attack power decreases by 500 points, and the attack power of the opponent's monster fighting it decreases by 1500 points until the end of the turn!"

Wanzhangmu raised his arms.

"Expansion of Light!!!"

A dazzling white light burst out from the white dragon's body. The dazzling light dominated the entire scene and enveloped the huge steel machine.

[Glorious End Dragon, attack power 2600 → attack power 2100]

[VWXYZ-Shenlong Assault Cannon, attack power 3000 → attack power 1500]

Onlookers: "The attack power has surpassed!"

"This is the advantage of the Glorious Terminator Dragon. Let's smash that mecha!" Wanzhangmu said.

The incandescent light was as fierce as a raging fire, instantly penetrating the thick armor of VWXYZ. With a series of explosions, the indestructible combined body was riddled with holes, like a ruined fortress ravaged by a violent storm, rumbling and collapsing.

[You Xuan, LP 1900→LP 1300]

"Final blow!"

Wanzhangmu shouted loudly.

"Go ahead, accept the effect of 'Strange Clover', and attack again with the Glorious End Dragon!!!"

The sublime flash!!!"

The white light swept across like a surging wave, and it seemed as if thousands of sharp blades were slashing towards You Xuan in the light curtain. At that moment, Wan Zhang couldn't help but hold his breath, and his eyes widened as if he was afraid of missing even a moment.

Won
But it didn't.

boom! ! !
The strong light hit the illusory barrier, and a translucent mechanical body appeared in front of You Xuan, blocking his fatal blow.

"What?!" Wanzhang was shocked.

"The Kite Robot in the graveyard can only reduce the combat damage of a player's direct attack to 0 once." You Xuan smiled, "You threw it with your Notebook Erase. It seems that there is a risk of replacing the cards on both sides."

"Uh" Wanzhangmu's face twitched.

kite
This feeling is so close at hand. The moment my long-cherished wish is finally fulfilled, I suddenly realize that it was all just a daydream. I really need a quick-acting heart-saving pill.

But the advantage is still mine!
".Then a card is put on the field and the round is over." Wanzhangmu said coldly.

He still has one last trick up his sleeve, one last chance.

"Then on my turn, I draw a card." You Xuan said, "Magic Card 'Treasure of Adversity', if your opponent has a Special Summoned Monster on the Field and you have no Monster on the Field, draw two cards." (Original Card)
After drawing the card, he showed one of them. "Equipment magic 'Dimensional Destroyer Cannon - Super Thunder Alliance'!
This card can revive [VWXYZ-Dragon Blast Cannon] in your Graveyard in Attack Position regardless of the summoning conditions, and equip this card. The equipped monster effect is negated. "(Original card)
This is also a support card used in the Manjome animation, but it has not been implemented as a real card.

"According to the effect of this card, [VWXYZ-Dragon Assault Cannon] is revived!"

[VWXYZ-Shenlong Assault Cannon, attack power 3000]

"Then there's the effect of 'Mecha Unit Fortress' in the Graveyard. This card can be Special Summoned from the Graveyard by discarding Machine-Type monsters with a total level of 8 or higher from your hand.

I discard the level 8 'Mecha Troops·Super Transformation' in my hand, and revive 'Mecha Troops·Fortress'!"

The vortex leading to the underworld opened, and the fortress with loaded guns returned to the scene.

[Mecha Troops·Fortress, Attack Power 2500]

The senior student swallowed her saliva and said, "Summoning two powerful high-level monsters in an instant has changed the situation."

It is quite difficult for most duelists to summon a high-level monster these days. Those who can summon big monsters continuously like the two on the field are already elite players.

Are all the freshmen this year really monsters?
"Fight." You Xuan said, "'VWXYZ-Shenlong Assault Cannon', attack 'Glorious End Dragon'!"

All the barrels of the Shenlong Assault Cannon were locked together, and brilliant energy beams and rocket barrages were fired at the same time. The offensive was like a roaring fire dragon trying to devour the Glorious End Dragon.

Senior: "You still attack even though you know the effect of the Shining End Dragon"

In this situation, according to calculations, it seems that the Mecha Fortress should be used to attack first.

If you attack with the Mecha Fortress first, the Radiant End Dragon will activate its effect, and the Mecha Fortress's attack power will drop to 1000, while the Radiant End Dragon's attack power will drop to 1600. The Fortress will be knocked down, and You Xuan will take 600 points of damage.

Then VWXYZ attacks again, and Shining End Dragon activates its effect again, the attack power of Shenlong Assault Cannon will drop to 1500, but Shining End Dragon will only have 1100. Manjomu has 200 LP left, and if the attack succeeds, it will be Youxuan's victory.

So why attack with VWXYZ first? Miscalculation?

"I don't know what you're up to, but at this moment, the effect of 'Glorious Ending Dragon' is activated!" Wanzhangmu said, "Reduce your own attack power by 500 points, and reduce the attack power of the Shenlong Assault Cannon by 1500!

Expansion of Light!"

[Glorious End Dragon, attack power 2100 → attack power 1600]

[VWXYZ-Shenlong Assault Cannon, attack power 3000 → attack power 1500]

"I don't know what you are thinking of, but this blow will be the finale!"

Wanzhangmu shouted loudly and waved his hand to open the last backcourt.

"Damage calculation step, activate the face card! Quick-attack magic - 'Forbidden Holy Grail'! Increase the attack power of a face-up monster on the field by 400 points, and the effect is negated!"

"Oh? This card." You Xuan quickly understood Wan Zhang's intention, "So what you want to invalidate is..."

"Hahahaha! That's right. What I want to negate is the effect of my own 'Glorious End Dragon'!"

Wanzhangmu laughed loudly.

"The effect of the Shining End Dragon has been invalidated, so its attack power that was reduced by its own effect is restored, and an additional 400 attack power is increased!"

[Glorious End Dragon, attack power 1600 → attack power 2600 → attack power 3000]

The onlookers couldn't help but exclaim.

"It negates its own effects to restore attack power, and cleverly uses the side effects to increase attack power."

"The Shining End Dragon's attack power reduction is a continuous effect, so once it is negated, the attack power will be restored. However, the effect of reducing the opponent's monster's attack power is the type that takes effect when it is activated, so the attack power of the Dragon Blast Cannon will remain at 1500 until the end of the turn."

If the battle succeeds, You Xuan will suffer 1500 points of damage backlash, turning it into a desperate counterattack!
Manjomu: "That's it! Shining End Dragon, strike back! Flash of Sublimation"

"Don't be impatient." You Xuan smiled and interrupted the chant, "Activate the cover card, trap card - counter-shield!" (original card)
This is a trap used by Atum in the original work. Wang Yang used this card to protect Kaiba. It is also an old card from the DM era.

"Sacrifice a monster on your field, and add the defense of that monster to the attack of the target monster." You Xuan said, "Because it is an attack power change effect, it can be activated during the damage calculation step.

And because it is within the damage calculation step, even if the number of monsters on the field changes, it will not cause the attack to roll back."

Wanzhangmu's expression changed slightly: "Nani!?"

"Therefore, I sacrificed the 'Mecha Unit Fortress' and increased its defense by 1600 points to the 'VWXYZ-Shenlong Assault Cannon'."

The mecha fortress turned into golden light and dissipated, and energy poured into the body of the Shenlong Assault Cannon. The originally sluggish steel giant was instantly replenished with energy!
[VWXYZ-Shenlong Assault Cannon, attack power 1500 → attack power 3100]

Everyone couldn't help but exclaim again: "The attack power has surpassed again!"

The senior student couldn't help but stroke her chest which was constantly rising and falling: "Under such a situation, actually..."

"Damn it." Wanzhang's expression was distorted.

Having come this far, is there still no way to overcome this barrier?
But it's not over yet.

In order to activate the "Shield of Counterattack", the Mecha Fortress has been sacrificed, and You Xuan has no means to attack anymore. Although the Brilliant End Dragon cannot be saved, he still has the last 100 health points left.

it's not over yet
"Why do you think I chose to attack with 'VWXYZ-Shenlong Assault Cannon'?" You Xuan suddenly asked.

Wanzhang was stunned.

ha?
How do I know why?
"I don't know why, but I feel that it's more appropriate to use this guy to deliver the final blow in a duel with you." You Xuan smiled, "Of course, the prerequisite is that you have to have the confidence to kill, otherwise it would be disrespectful to your opponent, right?"

Wanzhang's pupils contracted.

What is the confidence to kill?
Is there any backup plan at this point?
"Activate the Trap Card 'Skill Inheritance' from the Graveyard." You Xuan showed a trap that popped out of the Graveyard, "During your turn, remove this card from the Graveyard from play, and a monster on your field gains 800 points of attack until the end of the turn!"

[VWXYZ-Shenlong Assault Cannon, attack power 3100 → attack power 3900]

Wanzhang's eyes widened.

How come you have a hole in the grave when you start from the cemetery?

Could it be the same hand wipe as before?
Wanzhangmu was about to vomit blood.

What kind of insider hand wipe?
"This is the finale." You Xuan said, "VWXYZ-Shenlong Assault Cannon's attack!

Justice from heaven!"

Rockets and artillery fire swept across the field. The Glorious Terminator Dragon was helplessly swallowed up by the dense firepower, causing a series of explosions in the vast half of the field.

【Manamoku, LP 200→LP 0】
