NOVEL NEXT Chapter 598: All Are Trash
The Winged Dragon of Ra, descends!
The scorching wind swept through the confined space, and the scalding air waves shattered the floor tiles. The body shining like gold in mid-air was coated with flaming armor, and even the air was burned red.
"At this critical moment, do you actually hit The Winged Dragon of Ra!?" Jonouchi raised his arm and shouted in front of him.
The priest girl Mana was sitting on the ground. She had never seen such momentum before and was stunned: "The prince is so powerful, he is so powerful…"
"No, when Special Summoned, the attack power of Ra is 0!" Honda said, "According to the effect of the 'Clear Kuriboh', the Sky Dragon's attack target will be forced to be transferred to The Winged Dragon of Ra. Yuei Vu still wins!"
"No." Yugi's expression was solemn, "When Special Summoned, Ra has the powerful ability to attack quickly!"
The Pharaoh closed his eyes, crossed his arms in front of him, and began to recite the incantation in a low voice.
The flames burned blazingly, and the vast divine power in the golden bird's body exploded, entering the strongest state of "God Phoenix".
The Winged Dragon in the state of God Phoenix was unaffected by any card effects, was not destroyed by battle, and the controller took no battle damage from it.
In addition, when the Winged Dragon entered the God Phoenix state, the controller could pay 1000 LP to destroy all monsters on the opponent's field.
And this was exactly the effect the nameless Pharaoh intended to activate at this time.
[The Nameless Pharaoh, LP 3000→ LP 2000]
The heat wave erupted like a volcano, and lava swept across the earth. The fiery current quickly engulfed the entire site on Yuei Vu's side, and all the iron slag accumulated on the ground was melted into a stream of heat, swarming in.
The Sky Dragon roared unwillingly, but unfortunately, it ranked lower than the Winged Dragon among the three Egyptian Gods. The flames of the phoenix rushed through without hindrance, burning it to ashes.
Fortunately, Sky Dragon still played a role.
Just like the situation in the duel between Yugi and Marik in the anime, when there was the "Sky Dragon of Osiris" on the field, all the field-clearing effects of God Phoenix could be borne by the sky dragon, without affecting other monsters on the field.
So at least there were still monsters that could act as walls on Yuei Vu's field, which was barely good news.
At the end of this turn, the powerful Winged Dragon would return to the graveyard to sleep, but this did not mean that it could be taken lightly.
From the duels of six-year-olds in the past, everyone knew that the Winged Dragon sleeping in the graveyard was the most terrifying. Different from the other two Egyptian Gods, the Winged Dragon revived from the graveyard would turn into an invincible "God Phoenix", with terrifying instant kill ability.
Still have to try to get rid of this trouble here first.
"The Battle Phase is over and we enter the Main Phase 2." Yuei Vu drew another card from his hand, "Equip Spell 'Premature Burial'! Pay 800 LP, then target 1 monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon that target in Attack Position and equip it with this card.
What I want to resurrect is… 'Elemental HERO Shadow Mist'! "
[Yuei Vu, LP 3000→ LP 2200]
The equipment card appeared in the back row, and the corresponding monster zone opened up a black vortex. The girl in tight black attire flew out and was bound to the equipment card.
[Elemental HERO Shadow Mist, ATK 1000]
"The effect of Shadow Mist – If this card is Special Summoned: I can add 1 'Change' Quick-Play Spell Card from my Deck to my hand." A card popped up in Yuei Vu's deck, "I added the Quick-Play Spell 'Mask Change' to the hand.
Then I activate 'Mask Change'!
Send 1 'HERO' monster I control to the Graveyard, then Special Summon 1 'Masked HERO' monster from my Extra Deck with the same Attribute.
I sent 'Elemental HERO Shadow Mist' to the graveyard, transform!
A knight born from the abyss, the incarnation of the law of darkness! Coming here——
——Masked HERO Dark Law! ! ! "
The black airflow exploded under the domain suppressed by the sun god, and the black armor with wild lines covered the Shadow Mist's body. The dark Masked HERO appeared in a half-squatting position, he slowly stood up straight, his five-fingered sharp claws spread out, and the introverted dark aura slowly diffused.
[Masked HERO Dark Law, ATK 2400]
"Oh, Yuei Vu's new Masked HERO has appeared!" After Jounouchi cheered, he also felt strange, "But the Battle Phase of this turn has ended, and there is no way to launch further attacks.
Moreover, there is The Winged Dragon of Ra in the state of "God Phoenix" on the field, and there is no way to inflict damage on the opposing player. Why did Yuei Vu want to…? "
Yuei Vu drew two more cards from his hand: "Set two cards, I end my turn."
After a pause, he suddenly pointed at the phoenix churning in flames in mid-air.
"At this moment, The Winged Dragon of Ra will return to the graveyard due to its own effect." Yuei Vu explained in a deep voice, "As long as Dark Law is on the field, any card sent to the opponent's GY is banished instead."
"Eh?" Honda, a layman, was surprised, "Can it still be like this? I thought God is unaffected by monster effects…"
"No." Yugi Muto shook his head, "It is true that gods do not accept monster effects, but that is only when they exist on the field. Gods that leave the field are just ordinary cards."
God is not invincible. The seemingly unsolvable effects and near-perfect resistance actually have blind spots that can be conquered.
In this regard, no one, perhaps even including the Pharaoh Yami Yugi himself, dared to say that he knew better than Yugi Muto.
Although it was said that Yugi Muto and Yami Yugi have always been a partnership that supported each other and fought side by side, in fact, as a duelist, he has rehearsed countless times in his heart "What should I do if I face the other me with three Egyptian Gods?"
Regardless of the apparent harmlessness of Yugi Muto, in fact, he may have simulated and rehearsed the scene of defeating the three Egyptian Gods a thousand times in his mind, and he was well aware of the weaknesses of these three gods.
Sure enough, it was just as Yugi Muto said. At the end of the round, the sun ushered in the time to go out. The immortal flames on the sacred body of the Winged Dragon gradually extinguished, and the phoenix turned into a beam of fire and prepared to fly back to the tomb area, but it crashed into the invisible realm of the dark hero.
Even though it was the highest Egyptian God, its aura faded after its playing time. It was helpless against the invincible "Masked HERO Dark Law" and could only obediently be exiled from this realm.
"That black Masked HERO… actually has the power to defeat the 'God Phoenix'!" Jonouchi exclaimed.
Yugi nodded: "Masked HERO Dark Law's ability is perfect against the phoenix that repeatedly resurrects from the graveyard. It seems that Yuei Vu has also studied ways to defeat the Egyptian God in private."
Sure enough, Yuei Vu-san and I are the same kind of people.
Yuei Vu didn't know what he was thinking.
But if he knew about it, Yuei Vu would definitely deny it——
–What? I am a passerby, how can I be compared with you, the big boss?
I'm not, I didn't, big boss, please stop talking…
Another point must be clarified.
That is, my Dark Law did not aim at the phoenix.
In front of the Unfriend Hero, all decks that relied on the graveyard were trash.
