Chapter 1204
"Effect of Time Silence - Turn Silence, negate the effect of Star Seraph Noble Demon!"
A transparent clock seemed to appear on the field with Fujiki You Xuan's words, and the clock hands rotated rapidly with the passage of time. A layer of faint starlight protection fell on Silent Magician with the passage of time, while an opposite energy fluctuation enveloped Star Seraph Noble Demon, and the energy overflowing from the latter's whole body became dim.
"Tsk, you actually negated Noble Demon's effect in turn," Dumon curled his lips, "But the power of the Barians is by no means something that can be blocked by your level.
Battle Phase!"
Dumon swept his arm and shouted sharply.
"CNumber 102: Star Seraph Noble Demon, attack 'Silent Magician LV8'!"
Surging lightning seemed to gather from all around to the tip of the fallen angel's staff, and the purple-black thunder light, like living lightning tearing through space, transformed into a blow of thunder. The tip of the staff condensed a churning dark purple energy ball, and the domineering energy transformed into a torrent of thunder and blasted towards Silent. The projection light effect along the way looked as if even the ground was overturned, exploding into transparent air waves.
"Interesting," Fujiki You Xuan knew that the opponent was hiding moves, but still said calmly, "Then Silent Magician, counterattack."
The magic power of Silent Burning gathered into a ball on her staff, and the spiral light bullet shot out dragging a storm. The arrogant power of the Chaos Number was immediately suppressed, and it was pushed back under the wave of white magic power.
Dumon: "At this moment, activate Quick-Play Spell 'Attack from the Blind Spot' from my hand!
The effect of this card is that I can target one monster in face-up Defense Position on the opponent's field and one monster in face-up Attack Position on my field, and increase my monster's ATK by the ATK of the opponent's Defense Position monster until the end of the turn!"
The image of the Quick-Play Spell was projected onto the field, with the classic monster Six Samurai series' "Great Shogun Shien" as the protagonist, and "White Ninja" killing out from behind him.
But seeing that ninja with cold light in his hand, he suddenly killed out, sneak-attacking and backstabbing Great Shogun Shien.
Fujiki You Xuan's field at this time had "Gadget Trio" in Defense Position, and the flowing energy was extracted from the bodies of those red, yellow, and green gears and absorbed into the body of the Star Seraph Noble Demon.
【Gadget Trio, DEF 1100】
【CNumber 102: Star Seraph Noble Demon, ATK 2900 -> ATK 4000】
Obelisk-level ATK!
The Star Seraph Noble Demon, which had been suppressed by the Silent wave, immediately surpassed it, and the wave of light magic power was bitten back by the fierce thunder of Chaos, and the contact point of the two energies of light and darkness seemed to begin to boil. The Chaos fluctuation tore through the light ball of Silent Burning like a hot knife through butter, and the magic light ball was like a bursting light bulb. The violent energy was pushed back onto Silent Magician, exploding into a white light cluster with a bang.
【Fujiki You Xuan, LP4000 -> LP3500】
Silent disappeared from the field after the explosion, but immediately turned into a ghost-like spirit and floated to Fujiki You Xuan's side, her expression somewhat annoyed, as if she were regretting her departure.
"It's okay," Fujiki You Xuan smiled at her and said, "As expected of the Seven Barian Emperors, you have some tricks."
Dumon breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately. Although his trump card "Star Seraph Noble Demon" effect being countered was unexpected, this situation was also perfectly resolved by him. The situation on the field now also occupied an advantage, and generally speaking, he was quite satisfied with his response this turn.
"Battle Phase end. Next, I set two cards..."
Dumon drew two cards from his hand and set them on the field, but just as he reached the End Phase, his movements suddenly paused, and his pupils contracted as if struck by lightning.
"Wh-what!?"
His body twitched violently, and he suddenly couldn't help but kneel on the ground, his body unable to move as if having a convulsion.
Fujiki You Xuan raised his eyebrows: "Hmm?"
What is this doing? Can't win the card game so you want to fake a sickness?
Let's say it first, he, Fujiki You Xuan, didn't use any dirty tricks to make the opponent have a heart attack and forfeit. Fujiki You Xuan thought of something and looked deeper into the ruins, suddenly feeling that the bursts of energy fluctuations coming from the ruins seemed to have become stronger, and seemed to have guessed something.
It was probably that Yuma's Duel had reached a key node, triggering the legend sealed in these ruins and resonating with Dumon.
After all, these ruins were exactly Dumon's ruins, and what was sealed here was exactly Dumon's legend.
Legend has it that a long, long time ago, there was a hero in this country who rode a Master Tianma and led a group of knights to protect the peace of this country, and he was deeply loved by the people.
Until one day, the hero rode the Master Tianma back to visit his hometown. The knights took advantage of the hero's absence to usurp the throne and rebel, overthrowing the king and seizing the throne.
Hearing this, the hero rushed back and tried to persuade his past companions, hoping they would remember the bond they had fought together back then and remember the justice they had shared in their hearts back then.
But those knights who had fought side by side could not listen at all and turned their swords against him. The hero could not make a move against his companions, so he did not resist at all.
His Master Tianma tried to protect him, dying for him by blocking the sword. But the hero could not abandon the Master Tianma and survive alone, so in the end, he died with the Master Tianma.
"Ahhh—"
Dumon knelt on the ground, clutching his head as if his head were splitting with pain.
"Why? Why was this legend suddenly instilled into my mind..."
"And why does this legend bring me such deep palpitations? This vibration deep into the soul, what is going on..."
Heart-wrenching pain. And he soon realized that it wasn't just a headache, but seemed to come from the heart—no, it was from the deeper part of the soul, a profound sorrow, as if the pain was completely empathetic with the protagonist of the story in this legend.
"These ruins... seem to be trying to tell me something?" Dumon was puzzled.
Fujiki You Xuan: "My turn, draw."
Fujiki You Xuan drew a card, and also brought Dumon's thoughts back to the Duel at hand.
He shook his head.
Right, still in a Duel.
No matter what problem these ruins had, he could study it slowly after grabbing the Number of the ruins and going back.
First, he had to focus on the Duel, solve the trouble in front of him, and then hurry in to take the Number.
"Activate Spell Card 'Magical Book of the Pot' from my hand," Fujiki You Xuan said, "Both players draw three cards from their Decks."
The classic shape of Professor Chronos's pot was projected on the field, and that green, mocking big face appeared on the field, grinning to reveal a mouthful of yellow teeth. The energy released from the top of the pot transformed into a flying magic book in mid-air, automatically flipping pages with a rustle...
However, as both sides drew three cards from their Decks, the big pot, together with the magic book, immediately shattered with a crack, turning into a pile of fragments.
Fujiki You Xuan, after drawing the cards, looked at one of the two cards he drew and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and smile.
He casually showed one of the cards directly.
"One of the cards I drew is this card. Demon's Light Arrival!"
