Chapter 378: Rich Hero
【1000th generation, LP 】

【Hongye, LP 3300】

When Yugen came down, it looked like the duel had reached its endgame. On Hibiki Momiji's side, there was only "Elemental Hero: Forest Man" in defense position, while Judai's field was empty.

[Elemental Hero: Forest Man, Defense Power 2000]

Although they both use elemental heroes, the tenth generation uses a series of civilian heroes centered around the famous four useless heroes, which are common products that you can buy in roadside card shops.

However, it seems that none of Xiang Hongye's heroes have any ordinary bones, and among them there are some rare heroes that are completely unavailable on the market.

It can also be said that Xiang Hongye's elemental hero is a special edition for champions. When his deluxe version fights against the civilian version of the tenth generation, it feels like the rich rely on technology while the poor rely on mutation.

"I can feel the passion between you and your heroes, Judai." Hibiki Momiji smiled, "As expected of a duelist who can reach this point."

It was always a pleasure to meet the fans, and even he couldn't help but admire Judai for making it to the quarterfinals with such a bunch of ordinary heroes.

Now after the duel, he was even more infected by Juudai's enthusiasm, and felt his passion for the duel was burning unprecedentedly.

"But your field is empty, and you only have one card left in your hand." Xiang Hongye said with a smile, "With only one chance to draw a card, can you break through the defense of the Forest Man with a defense of 2000?"

"Hey, there's still one chance to draw a card."

Judai rubbed his nose and said excitedly.

"Then watch carefully, Mr. Hongye, my card drawing!

My turn, draw a card! "

Judai said excitedly after drawing the card.

"Great, it's here as expected!

I first activate the Spell Card Dark Mass Production Factory, which can return two Normal monsters from the Graveyard to my hand. I return Elemental Hero Lightning Man and Elemental Hero Clayman to my hand.

"Recovered these two elemental heroes."

Xiang Hongye seemed to have guessed something and narrowed her eyes slightly.

So the card that Judai just drew should be
"Activate the magic card 'Fusion'! Fuse 'Elemental Hero: Lightning Man' and 'Elemental Hero: Clayman'——"

The two heroes disappeared in the fusion vortex, lightning rained down from it, and a giant surrounded by thunder descended from it!
Elemental Hero Thunder Giant, summon!
[Elemental Hero Thunder Giant, Attack Power 2400]

"The last card draw accurately drew the key 'Fusion' magic of the elemental hero."

Hibiki Momiji showed an approving expression.

Sure enough, this child
He is simply a genius born for duels.

"When 'Elemental Hero Thunder Giant' is successfully Fusion Summoned, destroy the monster on the opponent's field that has lower attack power than yours!" (Original effect)

Judai said excitedly.

"Go ahead, Thunder Giant—

—Lightning and thunder! "

The surging lightning burst out from the palm of the huge hero, like rolling thunder falling from the sky, and the lightning gathered on the Xianghongye field, and the Forest Man was shattered, leaving only slowly rising black smoke.

"A direct attack from the Thunder Giant!"

There were no defensive monsters, and no cover cards. The lightning javelin roared out from the Thunder Giant's hand and pierced through Hibiki Momiji.

The champion stood firmly in place and absorbed the electric current that swept through his body. The hem of his clothes fluttered in the air, but a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

[Red Leaves, LP 3300 → LP 900]

"Okay, my turn is over."

The tenth generation is getting more and more excited.

"Just a little bit closer!"

The situation has been reversed now that the Thunder Giant has been summoned. Hibiki Momiji has no monsters on the field and only one card in her hand. In addition, she will draw a card once in the next round, so it is not easy to defeat a trump card like the Thunder Giant.
But the more this happens, the more people look forward to it.

"What will Mr. Hongye do next?" Judai became more and more excited the more he thought about it.

He is dueling with Mr. Hongye, the world's strongest hero user, who won the world championship with the power of heroes!

Could it be better than this?

"I can already feel your enthusiasm. But it seems that no matter what, this should be the last time to draw a card." Xiang Hongye smiled, "I really hope this duel can go on forever."

"Haha, me too." Judai said happily.

Xiang Hongye smiled, then became serious: "My turn!"

But just as his fingers touched the top of the deck, his movements suddenly stopped and his expression froze as if he had been electrocuted.

"Woo-hoo."

His face changed slightly and his body swayed.

"Mr. Hongye?" Judai was stunned. "Nothing. Compared to this, Judai is here!"

Xiang Hongye's abnormality disappeared in a flash and he adjusted himself immediately.

"In this duel, I will fight to the end as a duelist!
Activate the magic card 'Hero Arrives'!"

You Xuan narrowed his eyes.

Wow, is this the strength of a champion?
Although it is the same hero deck, just picking up a random card is a dimensionality reduction attack on the tenth generation classmate.
The hero arrived and immediately became a powerful hero that was widely used when the real card was released. It was even used as a plug-in in many other decks that had nothing to do with heroes. In the original manga, it was originally a card of Hibiki Momiji, and it was rare that after the real card was released, the effect was not weakened at all compared to the original.

"If you don't have a face-up monster on the field, pay half of your life points." Hibiki said, "Special Summon an Elemental Hero of level 4 or lower from your deck!"

[Red Leaves, LP 900 → LP 450]

"So I pay half my life points and Special Summon this card from my Deck."

Hibiki Momiji shows the monster card she searched from her deck.

"Elemental Hero Skyman!"

You Xuan was speechless for a moment.

Well, here comes Sky Brother, this is a very familiar development. It is worthy of being a champion combo.
Although Judai-san represents the face of the elemental heroes, at least half of the elemental heroes favored by players are from the Hibiki family. The so-called "strongest hero user" is not without reason.

However, You Xuan was surprised that Xiang Hongye did not activate the effect of Sky Brother.

When the hero arrives, Sky Brother will fly. Then when Sky Brother is successfully summoned, he can retrieve another "hero" from the deck. This is the development that is engraved in the DNA of hero players in the "Arrival of Heroes" era.
Then You Xuan remembered.

Oh, excuse me, it’s not Shika’s Sky brother.

After the card was made, Skyman was given an epic enhancement. In the original comic, "Elemental Hero Skyman", in addition to the 1800-level high-quality lower-level panel, only had the effect of "can halve its own attack power for direct attacks".

The strength is completely not on the same level as after it becomes a real card.

You Xuan held his chin in thought.

It seems that there is a lot of room for improvement in strengthening the elemental heroes in this world.
"Activate the Spell Card 'Miracle Fusion' to remove the Elemental Hero in the Graveyard from play and fuse it!"

Xiang Hongye showed the two cards that were withdrawn from the graveyard.

"I exclude 'Elemental Hero: Forest Man' and 'Elemental Hero: Ocean Man' from the game and Fusion Summon them!"

He raised his arms high, and the two monsters disappeared in a fusion vortex.

"Look at Judai, this is my trump card, a super rare hero of which there is only one in the world—

——Elemental Hero Earthman!!!"

The fusion of forest and ocean became the incarnation of this blue planet, descending on the duel field in the form of an elemental giant.

Elemental Hero Earthman, summon!

"Madam is amazing!"

Judai's eyes are almost turning into hearts.

"Earth, a super rare hero with only one copy in the world."

You Xuan also frowned slightly.

That was not a simple three-dimensional projection. Now he could feel that unique oppression and powerful force. It was definitely an elf inhabiting the body and it was an elf with considerable strength.

"Elemental Hero Earthman, the Earth from the Planet series, I didn't expect to see it here."

Keipi also said with interest.

“This competition looks interesting.”

"The effect of Earthman is that you can sacrifice the elemental heroes on your field and absorb their attack and defense values!"

Xiang Hongye shouted.

"Absorb Skyman as a sacrifice and release the strongest power! Earthman——

——Hot Lava Mode!”

The white giant turned red all over, as if magma from the center of the earth was erupting from his entire body, and the giant's entire body was covered in crisscrossing rolling lava!

[Elemental Hero Earthman, attack power 4300]

"Ten generations later, the final blow!" Xiang Hongye shouted, "Attack the 'Elemental Hero Thunder Giant'!"

Earthman charged at full speed, the magma transformed into a sword in his hand. The Thunder Giant was cut and melted, the scorching flames engulfed his vision, but Judai still had an excited look on his face.

"Earthman, so handsome!"
