Chapter 247

"According to the effect of 'Mystic Piper', because I drew a Level 1 monster, I draw another card from the deck."

Fujiki You Xuan drew the card, then showed another card in his hand.

"Magic Card 'Hidden Armory'!" Fujiki You Xuan said, "Send the top card of the deck to the graveyard, and add an Equip Magic Card from the deck or graveyard 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 executed an automatic search, and a card popped out from the deck and was drawn into his hand. The deck was then automatically shuffled.

"I add the Equip Magic 'Wonder Wand' from the deck to my hand."

"Search for Equip Magic..."

Tomoki 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 Metal Armor' is on the field, you cannot choose any monster other than 'Archfiend of Lightning - Skull Archfiend' as the target of an effect."

"This includes the monsters on your own field, so even if you want to activate Equip Magic, you can't do it."

"Oh my, it's really tricky," Fujiki You Xuan made a headache gesture, "As expected of a professional player's combination, not only summoning such a powerful monster to set up a formation at once, but even the magic effect activated against my own monsters is sealed..."

"Not bad, in this way, the actions you can take are sealed to the maximum extent. What a pity, it's rare to search for equipment but can't use it," Tomoki said proudly.

"Indeed... Then there's no way, I have to do this."

Fujiki You Xuan sighed and slowly drew a card from his hand, as if he had been forced to do so.

"Then, I will tribute the two monsters 'Summoned Skull' and 'Archfiend of Lightning - Skull Archfiend' on the professional senior's field, and Special Summon this powerful Level 8 monster on the senior's field in defense position!"

"Awakening from the lava of the abyss, the power of destruction and rebirth—"

"——Level 8, Lava Golem!"

Saito Tomoki: "???"

What the hell?

The next moment, he watched in astonishment as the two great Fiends on his field melted in a burst of lava that sprang up from the ground, gurgling and dissipating. Following that, giant palms reached out from the lava, and the burning giant slowly crawled out, as if it had been burned into a red-hot iron cage, locking Tomoki inside.

The burning giant stood up on his field, turned its head to look at him, and its abstract face actually looked like it had a hint of a silly smile.

As if saying to him, hello, please give me your advice.

【Lava Golem, DEF 2500】

Looking at this silly big guy, Tomoki was a little messy for a while.

Not...

His invincible Fiend blockade was broken so easily?

What's even more annoying is that after the Lava Golem stood firm on his field, it opened its mouth and made a strange sound, exhaling a puff of hot air, feeling like it was burping after being full.

It ate two high-level Fiends in one breath, and the taste was not bad. The silly iron guy touched his stomach with satisfaction, as if saying thanks for the treat...

Tomoki: "..."

"Then, the target is lost, and 'Rare Metal Armor' is naturally destroyed," Fujiki You Xuan smiled, "In this way, my target lock is lifted."

"Then, the effect of Candy Clown in my hand, this card can be Special Summoned directly from the hand in attack position."

【Candy Clown, ATK 0】

"Activate the Equip Magic 'Wonder Wand', equip it to the Spellcaster-type 'Candy Clown'," Fujiki You Xuan said, "The ATK of the equipped monster increases by 500 points."

"However, the other effect of Wonder Wand, send the equip card and this card to the graveyard together, and I draw two more cards from the deck."

Tomoki frowned.

He was more and more convinced that this guy was really looking for something...

"Quick-Play Magic 'Flute of Summoning Kuriboh'!" Fujiki You Xuan said, "Special Summon this card from the deck—"

"——Come, Winged Kuriboh!"

【Winged Kuriboh, ATK 300】

Tomoki's heart had no waves.

Oh, Kuriboh.

And then? Ram me to death with Kuriboh?

Tomoki's mentality had returned to calm.

Although his mentality collapsed a bit after two great trump cards were eaten, even so, he still had a powerful monster with the panel of Blue-Eyes White Dragon on his field. A mere small fry like Kuriboh...

"Equip Magic 'Optical Camouflage Armor' can only be equipped to Level 1 monsters," Fujiki You Xuan showed a piece of equipment, "The equipped monster can attack directly."

"Hmm?" Tomoki continued to be confused.

Oh, direct attack, that's really amazing.

But your small fry only has 300 ATK, isn't that more of an insult than damage...

"Under the cover of 'Optical Camouflage Armor', Winged Kuriboh attacks directly!" Fujiki You Xuan said.

Tomoki sneered: "Heh, don't underestimate the professional..."

"At this moment, activate the Quick-Play Magic 'Berserker Crush'!" Fujiki You Xuan said, "Remove monsters in your graveyard from play, and until the end of the turn, the ATK and DEF of 'Winged Kuriboh' on your field become the same as the removed monster."

"Nani!"

Tomoki's pupils contracted.

Right, Magical Merchant dumped seven monsters into the graveyard in one breath last turn...

"Remove 'Silent Magician LV8' in the graveyard from play, and until the end of the turn, Winged Kuriboh gains the same ATK as Silent Magician... that is 3500 points!"

【Winged Kuriboh, ATK 300 -> ATK 3500】

"3500 ATK!?" Tomoki's expression distorted.

Are you kidding me?

A 3500 ATK Kuriboh and it attacks directly!?

Winged Kuriboh: "Kuri Kuri!"

Although I don't know what it's saying, Fujiki You Xuan feels that Kuriboh is right.

Winged Kuriboh gained optical camouflage, flew directly over the Lava Golem in the front row with its small wings. Lava Golem covered its eyes with two thick palms, as if saying I can't see, I can't see...

"Cut, don't underestimate the professional," Tomoki shouted, "Activate the set card, Trap Card 'Defense Draw'! Battle damage becomes 0, and then I draw a card from the deck."

Winged Kuriboh's full-force headbutt hit the transparent barrier, and finally returned without success, only able to "Kuri" twice regretfully, and flew back to Fujiki You Xuan with its wings flapping.

Tomoki wiped his sweat.

Damn, that was close, almost really killed by Kuriboh's headbutt...

If he really died at the hands of Kuriboh, he felt that his professional career that hadn't started yet could end early. It was simply a lifelong shame.

"It was close, what a pity," Keipa also said.

It's quite interesting to be beaten to death by Kuriboh with one punch...

"Then, set a card in the back row," Fujiki You Xuan said, "Turn ends."

"Then the effect of Berserker Crush ends, and your Kuriboh's ATK returns to normal," Tomoki shouted.

【Winged Kuriboh, ATK 3500 -> ATK 300】

A 300 ATK small fry left on the field, it's like a little girl who is naked and tempting people to commit crimes. Tomoki's face was cold, and he sneered in a deep voice.

Almost let him, a dignified professional rising star, suffer the humiliation of dying at the hands of Kuriboh. He would pay back this humiliation with interest this turn!

"My turn, draw!"

"Standby Phase, the effect of Lava Golem," Fujiki You Xuan said, "1000 points of damage to the controller."

Tomoki: "Uh ah..."

【Tomoki, LP4000 -> LP3000】

In the iron cage, as if being showered with shit, Tomoki hummed low.

It was really dangerous. If Kuriboh's punch had passed last turn, and then he ate Lava Golem's burn damage, he would be finished directly...

"It is indeed a terrible combination, but it seems I am still better," Tomoki shouted, "Change Lava Golem to attack position!"

"Die at the hands of your own monster!"

He waved his hand and shouted.

"Lava Golem, attack 'Winged Kuriboh'!"

Lava Golem's ATK is a terrifying 3000, and Winged Kuriboh only has 300, a full ten times difference. Fujiki You Xuan's LP is only 1500 left, and this punch will end the game directly.

A sharp light flashed in Tomoki's eyes: "I won!"

However, even Tomoki himself didn't notice that since when he had evolved from the mentality of "bullying small fry" to "beat this dog to death."

Unknowingly, he became excited as he played.

"Be calm, senior. Being so easily hot-headed, it's easy to suffer losses when you reach the professional arena."

Fujiki You Xuan shook his head and said earnestly.

Tomoki: "?"

Wait, are you the senior or am I the senior?

Why are you suddenly educating me?

"Activate the set card, Quick-Play Magic 'Wings of Wickedness'," Fujiki You Xuan said, "Discard two cards from your hand to evolve Winged Kuriboh into 'Winged Kuriboh LV10'."

Wings of Wickedness, a rare card dedicated to Winged Kuriboh. Although the one that came to the academy first was given to student Judai, Fujiki You Xuan also had one in the Kuriboh-dedicated deck he got from the Kaiba company later.

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

【Winged Kuriboh LV10, ATK 300】

"Actually evolved to Level 10 in one breath?" A bad premonition arose in Tomoki's heart, "But even if it's Level 10, the ATK is only 300..."

"The effect of LV10," Fujiki You Xuan smiled, "In the opponent's Battle Phase, tribute this card to destroy all attack position monsters on the opponent's field. And deal damage to the opponent equal to the total ATK of the destroyed monsters."

Tomoki's brain crashed for a few seconds.

Attack position monsters on his own field, wouldn't that be...

He instinctively looked up at a certain silly iron guy, and found that the silly iron guy was also looking down at him.

Even pointing at himself, as if saying, that's right, it's me.

【Lava Golem, ATK 3000】

【Tomoki, LP3000】

Tomoki: "..."

The genius teenager almost laughed out of anger in an instant.

Burn him for 1000 points in the Standby Phase, and then Lava Golem's ATK is exactly 3000...

A set of combo punches just happened to output 4000, not more, not less, just happened to kill him, without any overflow.

"Then the effect of Winged Kuriboh LV10 activates," Fujiki You Xuan said, "Tribute itself to destroy 'Lava Golem', and deal damage to you equal to Lava Golem's ATK... that is 3000 points."

Winged Kuriboh dissipated in the exploding golden light, and immediately after, Lava Golem's body also exploded. The hot lava exploded with its self-destruction, once again burning Tomoki and the iron cage that locked him into ashes...

When LP returned to zero and he went offline from the virtual arena, Tomoki looked up and let out a long, turbid breath.

Suddenly began to think, will the professional world be a bit too cruel for him.

Maybe he is not suitable for dueling at all.

【Tomoki, LP3000 -> LP0】
