Chapter 247 The professional world is too cruel

"According to the effect of 'Mysterious Piper', since I drew a 1-star monster, I will draw another card from my deck."

You Xuan drew a card and then showed another card in his hand.

"Magic card 'Weapon Hole'!" You Xuan said, "This sends the top card of the deck to the graveyard, and selects an equipment magic card from the deck or graveyard to add to your hand."

He pulled out the top card of the deck, glanced at it, and sent it to the graveyard area of ​​the duel disk. The duel disk performed an automatic search, and a card popped out of the deck and was pulled into his hand. The deck was automatically shuffled.

"I added the equipment magic 'Magic Wand' from my deck to my hand."

"Retrieve equipment magic."

Zhishu still didn't understand what this was doing, but he said, "Although I don't know what you are planning, you should know that as long as 'Rare Silver Armor' is present, you cannot choose any monster other than 'Thunder Demon King - Skeleton Demon' as the effect target.

This includes monsters on your own field, so you can't activate equipment magic even if you want to."

"Oh my, this is really tricky." You Xuan said with a headache, "As expected of a team of professional players, not only did they summon such a powerful monster formation in one go, but even the magic effects on my own monsters were sealed."

"That's right. This way, the actions you can take will be restricted to the maximum extent. It's a pity that you can't use the equipment after retrieving it." Zhishu said proudly.

"Indeed. There is no other way. We have to do this."

You Xuan sighed and slowly drew out a card, as if he was forced to do so.

"Then, I will sacrifice the two monsters 'Devil's Summons' and 'Thunderbolt Demon - Skeleton Demon' on the Professional Senior's field, and Special Summon this powerful 8-star monster in Defense Position on the Senior's field!
Awakening from the lava of the abyss, the power of destruction and rebirth——

——Level 8, Lava Demon!"

Saito Tomoki: “???”

WTF?

The next moment, he watched in astonishment as the two demons on his field melted in the lava that rose from the ground and dissipated. Then a huge hand stretched out from the lava, and a burning giant slowly emerged from it, like a red iron cage that locked Tomoki inside.

The burning giant stood up on his field, turned his head and looked at him, and there actually seemed to be a hint of a silly smile on his abstract face.

It was as if saying to him, hello, please give me your advice.

[Lava Demon, Defense 2500]

Looking at this silly big guy, Zhishu was a little confused for a moment.

Not
His invincible demon blockade was broken so easily?
What’s even more infuriating is that after the Lava Demon gained a foothold on his field, it opened its mouth and made a strange sound, followed by a cloud of hot air coming out of its mouth, which felt like it was burping after eating.

I ate two high-level demons in one go and they tasted pretty good. Tiehanhan touched his stomach contentedly, as if to say thank you for the treat.
Tomoki: “.”

"Then, the equipment object is lost, and the 'Rare Silver Armor' is naturally destroyed." You Xuan smiled, "This way, my blockade of taking the object is lifted.

Then, with the effect of Candy Joker in my hand, this card can be Special Summoned directly from my hand in Attack Position."

[Candy Clown, Attack Power 0]

"I activate the equipment spell 'Magic Wand' to equip the Magician-type 'Candy Clown', and the equipped monster's attack power increases by 500 points." You Xuan said, "But the other effect of the Magic Wand is to send the equipment card and this card to the graveyard, and I draw two more cards from the deck."

Tomoki frowned.

He became more and more convinced that this guy was indeed looking for something.
"Quick Play Magic 'Kuri Ball's Calling Flute'!" You Xuan said, "Special Summon this card from the deck--

——Come on, Winged Kurumi-maru!”

[Winged chestnut ball, attack power 300]

Tomoki's heart was calm.

Oh, chestnut balls.

Then what? Kill me with a chestnut ball?
Zhishu's mentality has returned to calm.

Although he was a little upset after losing two of his trump cards, he still had a powerful monster on the field that was equivalent to the Blue-Eyes White Dragon. A mere trash like Kurikoku.
"The equipment magic 'Optical Camouflage Armor' can only be equipped to 1-star monsters." You Xuan showed a piece of equipment, "Equipped monsters can attack directly."

"Hmm?" Tomoki continued to be puzzled.

Oh, direct attack, that's awesome.

But your small fry only has 300 attack points, isn't it more of a humiliation than a harm?
"With the cover of 'Optical Camouflage Armor', Winged Chestnut Ball attacks directly!" You Xuan said.

Zhishu sneered: "Oh, only 300 points of attack power."

"This instant I activate the quick-attack spell 'Berserker Smash'!" You Xuan said, "Remove the monsters in your graveyard from play, and until the end of the turn, the ATK and DEF of the 'Winged Kurikoku' on your field become the same as those of the removed monster."

"Nani!"

Tomoki's pupils contracted.

Oh, by the way, last turn, the Magical Grocery Merchant played seven monsters at once.
"The 'Silent Magician LV8' in the graveyard is removed from the game. Until the end of the turn, Winged Kuriko ball gains the same attack power as the Silent Magician. That is 3500 points!"

[Winged Kurikoku, attack power 300 → attack power 3500]

"Attack power three thousand five!?" Zhishu's expression was distorted.

Are you fucking kidding me?

The chestnut ball with an attack power of 3500 has a direct attack! ?
Winged Kuriko: "Kuri-Kuri!"

Although he didn't know what it was saying, You Xuan felt that the chestnut ball was right. The winged chestnut ball obtained optical camouflage, flapped its wings and flew over the head of the lava demon in the front field. The lava demon covered his eyes with his two thick palms, as if to say I can't see, I can't see.
"Tsk, don't underestimate the profession." Tomoki shouted, "Activate the cover card, Trap Card 'Guardian Wall'! The damage of one battle becomes 0, and then I draw a card from the deck."

Winged Kuriko's headbutt hit the transparent barrier with all his strength, but ultimately failed. He could only say "Curry" regretfully twice, flapping his wings and flying back to You Xuan.

Zhishu wiped his sweat.

Damn, it was a close call. I was almost killed by the chestnut ball's headbutt.
If he really died at the hands of a chestnut ball player, he felt that his career, which had not yet begun, would end prematurely. It would be a lifelong shame.

"It was so close, what a pity." Keipi also said.

It's quite interesting to kill the chestnut ball with one punch
"Then, cover a card to the backcourt." You Xuan said, "The round is over."

"Then the effect of Berserker Shatter ends, and the attack power of your chestnut ball returns to original." Tomoki shouted.

[Winged Kurikoku, attack power 3500 → attack power 300]

A small fry with an attack power of 300 left on the field is just like a naked little girl tempting people to commit crimes. Tomoki's face was grim, and he snorted and laughed.

He almost suffered the humiliation of dying at the hands of a weak player as a rising professional star, and this round he was going to get back the humiliation with interest!

"My turn, draw a card!"

"In the preparation phase, the effect of the Lava Demon God." You Xuan said, "It will deal 1000 damage to the controller."

Tomoki: “Uh.”

[Wise Tree, LP 4000 → LP 3000]

Being in the iron cage felt like being showered with shit, and Zhishu groaned.

It's really dangerous. If he had been hit by the chestnut ball last round, and now he was burned by the lava demon, he would have been finished.
"It's a terrifying combination, but it seems I'm still better." Tomoki shouted, "Change the Lava Demon to attack position!
Die at the hands of your own monster!"

He waved his hand and shouted.

"Lava Demon, attack the 'Winged Chestnut Ball'!"

The attack power of the Lava Demon is a terrifying 1500 points, while the Winged Kuriko Ball only has points, a full ten times difference. You Xuan's health is only points left, and this punch will directly end the game.

Tomoki's eyes flashed with brilliance: "I won!"

However, even Zhishu himself did not realize that since when his initial mentality of "just bully the weak" changed to "beat this bastard to death".

Before I knew it, I was getting excited while playing.

"You need to stay calm, senior. If you get carried away so easily, you will easily suffer in the professional arena."

You Xuan shook his head and spoke earnestly.

Zhishu: “?”

Wait, are you the senior or am I the senior?
Why is there a sudden education?

"Activate the face-up card, the quick-attack magic 'Evolution Wings'." You Xuan said, "Discard two cards in your hand and let the Winged Kurikoku evolve into 'Winged Kurikoku LV10'."

Evolution Wings, a rare card exclusive to Winged Kuribayaru. Although the first card he gave to Judai-san when he first came to the academy, Yugen also had one in the Kuribayaru exclusive card deck he bought from Kaiba Corporation.

In the holy light of evolution, Winged Kurikoku grew rapidly, bathed in shining light, and spread its huge and holy wings like an angel.

[Winged Kurikoku LV10, attack power 300]

"It actually evolved to ten stars in one go?" Zhishu had an ominous premonition, "But even at ten stars, the attack power is only 300"

"LV10 effect," You Xuan smiled, "During your opponent's Battle Phase, sacrifice this card to destroy all Attack Position monsters on the opponent's field. Inflict damage equal to the total ATK of the destroyed monsters."

Zhishu's brain crashed for a few seconds.

The attacking monsters on your field,
He instinctively looked up at a certain idiot, and found that the idiot was also looking down at him.

He even pointed at himself, as if to say, yes, it's me.

[Lava Demon, attack power 3000]

【Wisdom Tree, LP 3000】

Tomoki: “.”

The young genius was so angry that he almost laughed.

Burn 1,000 HP during the preparation phase, and when you're done, the Lava Golem's attack power is still exactly 3,000.
The output of a set of combined punches was exactly 4,000, neither more nor less, just enough to kill him, without any overflow.

"Then Winged Chestnut Ball LV10, the effect is activated." You Xuan said, "Yourself will be sacrificed to destroy the 'Lava Demon' and give you the attack power of the Lava Demon. That is points of damage."

The Winged Chestnut Ball dissipated in the golden light, and the body of the Lava Demon exploded immediately afterwards. The hot lava exploded with his self-explosion, once again burning Tomoki and the iron cage that held him into ashes.
When his LP returned to zero and he logged off from the virtual arena, Zhishu looked up and let out a long breath.

Suddenly I started to wonder if the professional world might be a little too cruel for me.

Maybe I'm not suited to dueling at all.

[Wise Tree, LP 3000 → LP 0]
