Chapter 983: Mjolnir
"Decide the winner!"
Dragan, who had summoned Aesir God Thor, clearly had his momentum surge, and his confidence seemed to have increased, with a posture of "who else but me."
The three Aesir Gods of the star realm, Odin, Thor, and Loki, were also Gods certified by race and attribute in the anime. But unlike the Phantom Gods and Wicked Gods, the Aesir Gods didn't have any general resistance to traps or once-per-turn magic effects, and were basically blank in terms of resistance. Only Loki had a semi-trap resistance of "negating one trap card during battle."
But relatively speaking, the Aesir Gods possessed a general immortality ability.
The Aesir Gods in the anime were all immortal, and each could automatically revive from the Graveyard at the end of each turn, and each brought positive benefits when revived using this effect. Although the physical card restored this ability, it added the restriction of "banishing one Nordic monster from the Graveyard," so the number of revivals became limited, and the practicality was greatly reduced.
In addition to this general ability, each Aesir God also had its own separate effect.
For example, Aesir God Thor, Fujiki You Xuan remembered its effect was "Effect Absorption." Once per turn, Thor could negate the effect of one monster on the opponent's field until the end of the turn, and Thor could gain that monster's effect within that turn. It was the same type of ability as Yusei's Shooting Star Dragon.
This effect was also weakened in the physical card. Thor in the physical card could only negate effects, not steal them.
However, Fujiki You Xuan only had "Green Baboon, Defender of the Forest" on the field at this moment, whose effect was that when a Beast-type monster on the field was destroyed, this card could revive from the hand or Graveyard; even if Thor stole its effect, it would be meaningless.
Obviously, Dragan also realized this, so he didn't use Thor's ability, but directly declared entering the Battle Phase.
"Aesir God Thor, attack 'Green Baboon, Defender of the Forest'!"
Rainbow light suddenly erupted from the eyes of Aesir God Thor, and the lightning snakes wrapped around Mjolnir. The moment the hammer fell, the air along the way was ionized into a plasma state, dragging out a thunder trail that pierced the sky and earth.
The divine hammer easily shattered the arms of Green Baboon that were crossed in defense, and the muscle fibers carbonized and disintegrated under the voltage of billions of volts. The spherical thunder storm triggered by the hammer strike exploded into a thunder domain, and the concave part of the sea surface at the hammer strike point seemed to form a spherical vacuum, and the evaporated water molecules condensed into ice-crystal thunder clouds at high altitude.
The audience was shocked by the amazing momentum of this divine strike, and even the pompadour commentator was dumbfounded: "Eh... this... this... the effect of this 3D image is really realistic, haha..."
The commentator said, already starting to wipe sweat.
Of course, this couldn't be any 3D image system. The projection system didn't have such a large-scale effect, nor did it have such an exaggerated performance.
That was real divine power.
Dragan continued: "Facing Gods, a moment of carelessness will lead to destruction; let your body feel this deeply!
Activate set card, Trap Card 'Mjolnir's Magic Hammer'!"
One could tell from the card name that this was the exclusive trap for Aesir God Thor, a reinforcement card targeting his thunder hammer.
"This card can be activated by selecting one Illusion God-type monster on your field." Dragan said, "If the selected monster destroys the opponent's monster in battle this turn, deal 1000 damage to the opponent!" (Original effect)
Obviously, because the physical Aesir God was deleted from the noble Illusion God-type, the activation target of this trap was also changed from "Illusion God-type monster" to "monster with 'Aesir God' in its name" when it was made into a physical card.
The original anime version before the modification limited all Illusion God-type monsters to use it, so naturally, it reminded Fujiki You Xuan that the Three Phantom Gods should also work. However, he immediately thought that except for the Aesir Gods, other Illusion God-type monsters seemed to be unaffected by trap card effects, so after careful calculation, it seemed that it was still only exclusive to the Aesir Gods.
"Destroying Green Baboon in battle deals 900 damage, and Mjolnir's effect adds 1000 damage." Dragan said, "Eat this total of 1900 damage!" Lightning struck Fujiki You Xuan's D-Wheel directly, constantly exploding black smoke on his D-Wheel and the surrounding track, and even the road surface was visibly destroyed.
【Fujiki You Xuan, LP 3000 -> LP 1100】
"It's not over yet, this is not the full power of Mjolnir!" Dragan shouted, "The thunder hammer Mjolnir is the strongest divine artifact with the ability to kill any opponent instantly!
Another effect of Trap Card 'Mjolnir's Magic Hammer': the selected monster can attack twice this turn!"
The pompadour commentator gasped: "Destroying a monster adds damage, and it can also make a monster of God level attack twice! What terrifying ability, Fujiki You Xuan-senshu has actually reached the brink of life and death so quickly, is Team Ragnarok's pressure really different from previous opponents!?"
Thor's war hammer fell again, and it seemed that the finishing blow was about to be completed.
And at this moment, Fujiki You Xuan's mouth twitched slightly.
"Gods... well, they are indeed quite powerful. But it's a pity that a noble God can't be immune to traps."
Dragan's expression changed slightly: "What?"
"That is to say, if it were the legendary Three Phantom Gods here instead of the Aesir Gods, this card would be useless." Fujiki You Xuan snapped his fingers, "Activate set card.
Trap Card 'Ripple Barrier - Wave Force'!
When the opponent declares a direct attack, bounce all Attack Position monsters on the opponent's field back to the owner's deck!"
Dragan's pupils contracted, and his heart shook.
Bounce back to the deck...
Not destruction, but bouncing back to the deck!?
Indeed, his God didn't have resistance to traps, but it had the ability of immortality. No matter in what way, as long as Thor was sent to the Graveyard, Thor would automatically revive at the end of the turn and deal 800 damage to the opponent, which could also be considered a disguised resistance.
But if it were bounced back to the deck...
The teammate off the field, Brave, also changed his expression: "This guy actually wants to bounce a God back to the deck... what a sinister guy."
"Calm down." Harald said, "Dragan's God has been used in matches in the past, so it's not strange to be able to find information and respond to it."
Pausing for a moment, Harald smiled.
"Well, if he's solved by just this level, Dragan doesn't deserve to be the one chosen by God. He can handle it."
Sure enough, the next moment Dragan said: "Activate set card, Trap Card 'Nordic Relic Laevateinn'!
Select one monster on the field that has destroyed a monster in battle this turn, and destroy that monster!"
He raised his right arm high, pointing at the giant that blotted out the sky.
"I destroy my own 'Aesir God Thor' that destroyed your Green Baboon this turn!"
