Chapter 531: Working Tiger

The farthest distance in the world is that we are clearly in the same game of cards, but I am inside the cage, while he is outside the cage...

Well, this is Melo's most true portrayal of his heart at this moment.

Looking at the red-hot iron cage in front of him, and then looking at the big fool above his head who seemed to be dripping with magma and seemed to be smiling foolishly at him, Melo was speechless for a moment.

He could only take a deep breath, take a deep breath, and take a deep breath again.

Then curse secretly in his heart.

Damn, Lava Golem. He actually forgot about this.

He should have known. Lava Golem is a monster that the Duel King calls his trump card, and it has played a key role more than once in key battles, including the battle against the Arbiter.

He should have thought that there was still this thing.

It's just that Fujiki You Xuan didn't use it much in the information later, plus this duel was busy dealing with the Volcanic blockade, burn damage, and card destruction self-closing lineup, and he didn't have the energy to think about so much while he was overwhelmed.

Thinking about it now, Melo felt that he was really too naive to have been carefully guarding against the opponent showing a big monster to PK for a moment just now.

This is the "Duel King", the god in ancient Egypt who is in charge of retaliating against society!

Would this guy really summon a trump card monster to face you head-on?

Although Lava Golem has nothing to do with Volcanics, because this card is also Fire-Attribute, the card art style is similar to the Volcanic series, and this self-closing effect of eating the opponent's monster and burning the opponent's blood is also easy to connect with Volcanics at a glance, so it can generally be regarded as a distant relative.

Not to mention that it and the "Volcanic Queen" with similar abilities in Volcanics were once called "Volcanic Couple", a couple who lived by eating the opponent's monsters and burning the opponent's blood, and once became notorious in the environment.

"It's a pity, in this way, your Caesar next turn is gone. 'Gladiator Beast's War Chariot' can only prevent destruction, but it can't stop Lava Golem."

Fujiki You Xuan said with a smile.

"The Gladiator system that finally turned around was blocked again, it's a pity."

Melo: "."

The most annoying thing is that when Fujiki You Xuan said "it's a pity", he actually saw the abstract face of the Lava Golem above his head also open its mouth and gasp, and then actually shook its head, as if it really felt sympathy and regret for his encounter.

Melo laughed in anger.

Are you two singing a duet here?

"However, I cannot Normal Summon on the turn I summon Lava Golem," Fujiki You Xuan said. "Then I will set one card in the back row, turn end."

Melo calmed down.

Fortunately, although he was blocked again, the Volcanic system on the opposite side was not rebuilt. Take this turn to reorganize the offensive...

"My turn, draw a card!"

Fujiki You Xuan reminded: "At this moment, Lava Golem's effect. Inflict 1000 points of damage to its controller during the Standby Phase."

Lava poured over his head, splashing down from Melo's body. Melo snorted coldly and carried it with his body.

【Melo, LP 2300 → LP 1300】

"Activate Spell Card 'Level-Up!'." Melo said. "Tribute a monster of Level 8 or higher on the field, draw two cards."

"Disappear, Lava Golem."

Lava Golem hummed aggrievedly, melted into a pool of magma and disappeared.

"You actually treat the Level 8 big monster I gave you like this," Fujiki You Xuan shook his head. "It's really a waste of good intentions..."

"Shut up!"

Melo interrupted ruthlessly.

"You are the kind of person who needs the baptism of the great light of the universe the most!"

"Activate Spell Card 'Akashic Records', draw two cards from the Deck. However, if you draw a card used in this duel, you must banish it from the game."

Melo drew two more cards and immediately revealed one of them.

"Activate Spell Card 'Gladiator Beast's Training Ground', add one Level 4 or lower 'Gladiator Beast' from the Deck to my hand. I add 'Gladiator Beast Equites' from the Deck to my hand!"

"Then activate Spell Card 'Unexpected Dai'!"

"If there are no monsters on my field, Special Summon a Level 4 Normal Monster from the Deck. Special Summon 'Gladiator Beast Samnite'!"

【Gladiator Beast Samnite, ATK 1900】

"Then once again, 'Darius' in my hand! If there is a Gladiator Beast monster on my field, Special Summon this card!"

【Darius, ATK 600】

It's this little brain-tiger again.

Fujiki You Xuan held his chin and thought thoughtfully.

It seems that Melo's Gladiator construction is basically relying on pulling this tiger to save his life after sealing the battle...

Don't tell me, this thing is really easy to use.

It's just that the little tiger who worked overtime repeatedly was already a bit listless when it appeared this time compared to before, drooping its head with a look of no spirit.

It is estimated that working is not easy. Obviously, its slot does not carry Gladiator Beast, at best it is an outsourcing, but it does several times more work than the main family...

"Darius's effect, Tribute this card, then return 'Gladiator Beast Samnite' on the field to the Deck. Then Special Summon a 'Gladiator Beast' from the Deck!"

The two monsters that had just appeared both dissipated.

!. Read

"Descend again! Gladiator Beast Augustus!"

【Gladiator Beast Augustus, ATK 2600】

"Augustus's effect, when this card is successfully Special Summoned by the effect of a Gladiator Beast, Special Summon a Gladiator Beast from your hand in Defense Position."

"Special Summon 'Gladiator Beast Equites' that I just searched to my hand from my hand!"

【Gladiator Beast Equites, DEF 300】

"Then Equites's effect, when this card is successfully Special Summoned by the effect of a Gladiator Beast, Special Summon a Gladiator Beast monster from the Graveyard with its effects negated!"

"Revive 'Gladiator Beast Bestiari' destroyed by your Blaze Accelerator in the first turn from the Graveyard!"

【Gladiator Beast Bestiari, DEF 1200】

"Then activate set card," Fujiki You Xuan said. "Trap Card 'Opponent Appears!'"

"Select one face-up monster on the opponent's field, Special Summon one monster with the same level as the selected monster from your hand."

"I select 'Gladiator Beast Bestiari' on your field, and from my hand, the same Level 3 monster..."

Fujiki You Xuan slapped a card from his hand onto the Duel Disk.

"'Dark Dog Eight-Ghost Dog' Special Summon."

【Dark Dog Eight-Ghost Dog, DEF 800】

"It doesn't matter what it is!" Melo shouted angrily. "The preparation is complete!"

"Use 'Gladiator Beast Augustus', 'Gladiator Beast Equites', and 'Gladiator Beast Bestiari', return to the Deck again, Triple Fusion!"

The three major Gladiator Beasts disappeared in the vortex of fusion again, turning into a pillar of light that pierced the sky and earth, and the King of Gladiator Beasts descended in that vortex!

Gladiator Beast Domitianus, Summon again!

【Gladiator Beast Domitianus, ATK 1000】

"Domitianus's effect, when successfully summoned, Special Summon a Gladiator Fusion Monster from the Fusion Deck, ignoring the summoning conditions—"

"—Gladiator Beast Caesar, Summon!"

In the green tornado, King Caesar appeared again!

【Gladiator Beast Caesar, ATK 2400】

"Gladiator Beast Caesar successfully Special Summoned, destroy up to two cards on the field!" Melo said. "The only two cards left on your field, 'Volcanic Rocket' and 'Dark Dog Eight-Ghost Dog', destroy them all!"

Caesar's whirlwind rose again, and countless steel feathers shot the two monsters on Fujiki You Xuan's field into a hornet's nest. Volcanic Rocket and Dark Dog Eight-Ghost Dog exploded together, turning into two fireballs and disappearing.
