Chapter 87: The Insect Demon
"Use 'Little Mermaid', 'Melo Mermaid' and 'Renoheart' as materials to Fusion Summon 'Tears of Elegy Tribe - Kaledoheart'."
Along with a strong sense of oppression, a man wearing gorgeous armor inlaid with gems on his upper body and twisted octopus tentacles on his lower body suddenly appeared on the duel field.
"Activate Squidward's Special Summon effect and return 'Trion' to the deck."
Following Xia Qing's order, Squidward swung the whip in his hand and bounced the white-haired loli who had fallen into a dazed state on the field back into the deck.
Xia Qing waved her hand and announced, "That's it. My turn is over. Strange, it turns out it's still your turn now."
Squidward, Narcissus Mermaid, Red Mermaid, Luminous Beast Wolf, Luminous Archer Felice.
The bearded man looked at the five monsters on Xia Qing's field, whose combined attack power exceeded 5 points, and a feeling of desolation suddenly surged in his heart.
He just normally summons a monster during his turn.
Why treat him like this?
Even if he really committed a crime, he should be punished by the law, rather than letting him experience jail time in a duel.
The bearded man regretted taking the order.
According to the information provided by the other party, this kid was only using a magician deck, which was restrained by his Bug Demon.
If he could go back alive, he would tear the employer's mouth to pieces and make him tell the truth.
With a bitter look on his face, he could only persist in the duel, "Activate the Trap Card 'Broken Ludia Worm Bewitching Demon'. This card can be activated during Gefu's turn by discarding a trap.
"I discard 'Insect's Hole' in my hand, turn this card into a Normal Monster, and Special Summon it in Defense Position."
After saying that, the man looked up cautiously, waiting for Xia Qing's move.
"What are you looking at me for? No pit, no speed."
Xia Qing replied calmly, but in his heart he was lamenting that he was not lucky enough for not being able to pile all three fish in, otherwise, he would not be able to open the trap.
After all, the Light Path System is not as valuable as the restrictions placed on the entire family of Earth Angels.
Fast movement without pits? The corner of the bearded man's mouth twitched.
Do you want to check the thickness of your current deck? It’s only halfway down.
He resisted the urge to vomit blood and said, "I use the 'hole' on the field as material to Link Summon LINK1 'Sera's Worm Demon'."
[Sera's Worm Demon, LINK1, attack power 800. ]
The cute little loli with green twin ponytails was kneeling barefoot on the ground, with an innocent smile on her face that looked harmless to humans and animals.
However, when her eyes moved to the seafood feast on Xia Qing’s field, the smile on her face suddenly froze.
Sera could only helplessly bury her head into her chest, her body trembling uncontrollably, and even the grass she was holding tightly in her hands fell off in fear.
"Cover up three cards to end the round."
The bearded man let out a breath. He had already set the trap. All he had to do next was to wait patiently.
His backfield has two cover cards from the "Falling Hole" series and one "Riptide Burial".
As long as the opponent summons a monster, "Riptide" can destroy all monsters on the field.
However, Xia Qing was obsessed with the old insect.
Naturally, it is understood that as long as Sera does not trigger the trap, she will be a little girl who can be bullied by anyone standing alone on the field.
"Advance to the combat stage." He declared directly.
"You're not going to summon monsters?" A look of surprise appeared on the bearded man's face.
"Do you think I'm a fool? Why would I summon a monster when the field attack is sufficient to deal with the Insect Demon?"
The opponent was speechless for a moment, his thoughts exposed, and an embarrassed look appeared on his face.
"Attack, attack, 'Narcissus Mermaid' attacks 'Sera'," Xia Qing did not forget to remind, "Be gentle with Sister Sera, this person's deck will be mine later."
The bearded man spat out a mouthful of blood when he heard this. Although the other party was telling the truth, couldn't he be more tactful?
He suddenly had the illusion that he had become a sucker and a money-giving boy.
On the duel field, Narcissus was light and graceful, and the blue scimitar gently slashed across Sera's body, and the latter turned into green particles and slowly disappeared.
There is no atmosphere of blood and killing, everything seems like an elegant dance.
Sera is damaged, with excess damage falling on the opponent.
-
1500.
"No mercy from now on, Squidward, Red Mermaid, and Luminous Beast Wolf, attack directly."
Squidward's whip, which was filled with power, lashed towards his opponent like a flash of lightning.
The bearded man's body drew an arc in the air and flew several meters away.
-
3000.
Then came the attacks of other monsters.
-
2300, -2100.
The battle axe and claws fell on the opponent one after another, and soon the man lost consciousness. He lay on the ground unconscious like a corpse.
When Xia Qing saw this scene, his eyes widened, "Wait a minute, could this be the legendary dark duel?"
He hurried over to the man and felt his breath.
The warm air flowed across his fingertips.
Fortunately, the opponent's target was only the deck, and he had no intention of killing people by duel.
Compared to a normal duel, the damage is just slightly more substantial.
If the degree of materialization in a normal duel is 5%, then this duel is about 50%.
However, perhaps because Xia Qing attacked too hard, by the time the bearded man's health points dropped to zero, he had already lost consciousness.
Seeing that Xia Qing was safe, the figure of the silent magician disappeared at some point.
According to the contract, Xia Qing took the other party's deck, and then remembered that the man still had a DD Crow. So he tried to turn the man over, and found the DD Crow that might contain the card spirit from his shirt pocket.
As for this person, let’s just give him a phone call and let Chen Wei handle it.
About five minutes later, Xia Qing squatted under the shade of a tree and saw Chen Wei rushing over with beads of sweat on his forehead.
He examined the bearded man, then suddenly grabbed his beard and pulled it hard.
With a sizzling sound, the man's true face appeared in front of Xia Qing.
He looks like an ordinary office worker, with a fair face and no beard, completely different from his previous rough appearance.
"Professional card hunter, the one we've been hunting for. I didn't expect someone would target your deck so soon."
After hearing Chen Wei's judgment, Xia Qing's mood suddenly became heavy.
You are not afraid of thieves stealing, but you are afraid of thieves thinking about it. No matter how powerful Pearl Tears is, there is no 100% winning rate.
As if he could see Xia Qing's uneasiness, Chen Wei patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry too much. The country has always cracked down on this very severely, starting with at least ten years.
“I can’t say for foreign countries, but the total number of card hunters in China does not exceed three digits.
"There's a reward of 500,000 yuan on this man. I'll arrange for someone to give it to your parents later."
He paused, then continued, "By the way, the neighborhood you live in now is a mixed bag, with too many migrant workers. You should discuss with your parents whether you can move to a neighborhood with a better environment."
"Wait until my parents come home and discuss it with them."
Xia Qing readily followed suit, although it would be nice to occasionally refresh one or two boys who deliver wealth.
Given his family's current financial situation, it is indeed time to consider moving, especially to a place closer to the high school.
"I will take this man back for interrogation. Apart from the competition, try to avoid going out these days."
Seeing that the other party was about to leave, Xia Qing quickly asked the puzzled question in his heart: "What was the card he used to initiate the duel?"
Chen Wei looked around and lowered his voice: "Have you heard of the thousand-year-old artifact?"
Xia Qing's heart trembled. He had heard of it too much. Isn't this the prop in the Yu-Gi-Oh animation?
“That is a relic left by the first Duel King, but some scholars say it is a replica. Who knows?
“Anyway, that thing can initiate a ritual called Dark Duel.
"Someone discovered that cards made with some special means can carry that kind of power to a certain extent."
After the other party's explanation, Xia Qing roughly understood.
Similar to the animation, the Dark Duel requires the use of a Millennium Artifact to start.
Most of the artifacts are in the hands of major countries, but one or two are lost abroad and used by criminals as a means of profit.
This gave rise to the criminal profession of card hunter.
“On the surface, countries around the world seem to be tracing the source of the cards.
"But privately, you know, this card-making technology is possessed by several major countries, and who doesn't want to strike down the talented duelists of other countries?"
Chen Wei gave a meaningful smile and said no more.
Xia Qing watched him dragging the strong man away, and couldn't help feeling a little emotional. The waters in this world are quite deep.
I went out for a while and picked up a set of bug girls for free, plus a reward of 500,000.
The only problem is that he can no longer hide the fact that he owns the Pearl Tear deck.
"Pearl Tears is still outrageous, and this is without the 'Earth Angel'."
When the fight started, the opponent had no power to fight back.
In fact, Bearded Man's set of Insect Demon is quite powerful, and the Insect Demon family is basically complete.
Overall, it is a heavy pit construction.
If he used the magician's tactics he had used before when the opponent got the upper hand, he might really suffer a setback.
Flipping through the opponent's deck, Xia Qing's pupils suddenly shrank, and he asked in surprise: "There's actually an illiterate card to win or lose?"
"What do you mean by illiterate victory or defeat? It's the victory or defeat of Jie Hang. These two words are pronounced as 'Xie Hang'." Lena didn't understand Xia Qing's earth joke and corrected him.
Xia Qing was not interested in explaining to her, but asked, "Why didn't you show up before?"
"I'm not good at fighting, but I tracked down the other party's employer based on his transaction information."
"Who is it?"
"He's a team manager, but according to my investigation, his real target should be your 'Black Magician' related cards."
"real or fake?"
Xia Qing suddenly remembered that "Magician's Twin Souls" and "Chaos Fantasy Magician" are the support cards of the Black Magician.
It seems that no one else on Blue Star has obtained these two cards yet.
He has never used the effects related to the Black Magician, so the complete effects of the card are not recorded in the official illustrations.
However, there will always be people who hold the idea of "it is better to kill the wrong person than to let him go" and have some evil intentions.
What's more, Xia Qing's other cards are also of extremely high value, and the target is just an ordinary student, so what can go wrong?
"Which third-rate team is this again?" Xia Qing said with a hint of disdain in his tone.
These people don't work hard to improve the team's level, but always like to use crooked means.
"No, it's a top domestic team. Not long ago, their boss's youngest son won the Black Magician that was up for auction." Lena replied.
