Who asked him to play Yu-Gi-Oh!

Chapter 1587 The Duel of the Future?
[Game, LP4000]

[Victor, LP4000]

To be honest, the game was still a bit tense at this point.

Just as Yuugen predicted, Yugi Muto currently lacks practical combat experience. Yugi is essentially a protagonist who grows through experience; although his true strength has already exceeded the expectations of most people who know him—and perhaps even his own self-awareness—he probably hasn't surpassed Yugi at this stage yet.

Furthermore, while the deck he used in the game at this time was said to be co-constructed with Atem, strictly speaking, it was actually Atem's deck. The game had not yet fully developed its own style and characteristics and was still in the learning and thinking stage.

The game also subtly sensed that today's opponent seemed unusual, and he definitely needed to go all out to deal with him.

"I'll go first, draw a card!" The game player drew a card.

He glanced carefully at the six cards in his starting hand, seemed to ponder briefly, and then selected the first card from his hand and placed it in the monster section of the Duel Disk.

A stream of colored data rolled across the duel disk, activating the projection system.

"I usually summon 'Magic Warrior Destroyer' in attack stance!"

The game draws a monster card. A classic old monster, known as "Red Armor," a magical swordsman clad in a dashing red armor. He lands and swings his longsword in the air, causing the diamond-like indicator light on his shield to illuminate.

"When the Summoning of Magic Warrior Destroyer is successful, it will grant a Magic Counter that increases its attack power by 300 points!" the game states.

[Magic Warrior - Destroyer, Attack Power 1600 → Attack Power 1900]

“Then add a face-down card to the back row,” Yugi said. “The turn is over.”

Magic Warrior Destroyer has an attack power of 1900 upon landing and also has the hidden ability to destroy back row Spell and Trap monsters. Even in the physical card competitions of the DM era, it was a powerful monster of the restricted class.

With the addition of a second set of moves in the backcourt, the game felt that it should not have revealed any flaws in the first round.

But Victor just sneered.

Sure enough, even though it's called the King of Duels, this kind of thing that looks so dated doesn't really pose any threat to him.

“My turn, draw a card,” Victor said. “Activate the spell card ‘Hand Card Annihilation.’ Both players discard all cards in their hands, and then draw the same number of cards.”

The player and their opponent discard their cards together, and then draw cards again.

After drawing five more cards and glancing at them in his hand, Victor laughed and said, "Yugi Muto, it seems today is the day your legend ends."

I discarded 'Earth Dragon - Sediment' from my hand, and its effect activated!

Victor revealed two monster cards from his hand in one go.

"Earth Dragon - Sedimentation can be Special Summoned from the Deck as 'Rock Dragon - Rocky Ridge' by discarding this card and other Dragons in your hand!"

He placed the two cards into the graveyard, and the earth beneath him shattered, the broken rocks coalescing to form the shape of a giant rock dragon.

[Rock Dragon - Rocky Ravine, Defense 3000]

"Next, activate the Spell Card 'Seven Star Sword' to banish the seven-star monsters from your hand and field. You can then draw two cards from your Deck!"

I banish the seven-star 'Rock Dragon - Rocky Ridge' from the field and draw two cards!

Victor draws two cards. While Rock Dragon can activate its Deck search effect when banished from the game, Victor does not choose to activate it in this case.

In addition to its search function, Rock Slayer also has the effect of "Special Summoning itself from the Graveyard". However, you can only choose one of these two effects per turn: Special Summoning or Searching. If one of them is activated, the other cannot be used.

After drawing two more cards into his hand, Victor immediately revealed two more monster cards and quickly sent them to the graveyard: "Discard 'Fire Dragon - Burning' and another Dragon from your hand, and you can Special Summon 'Fire Dragon - Blast' from your Deck!"
I Special Summon 'Flame Dragon - Blast'!

A storm of fire swept across his field, transforming into a giant dragon with its head held high, spewing flaming blades from its mouth.

【Flame Dragon - Blast, Attack Power 2800】

"What's going on with this deck?" Yugi exclaimed in surprise. "It's summoning high-level monsters one after another like this all at once!"

This reaction pleased Victor greatly, and he couldn't help but laugh heartily: "Of course, King of the Primitives, this is a duel far beyond your era and into the future, a form of dueling evolution! So no matter how strong you are as a duelist in this era, you absolutely cannot defeat him!"

Game: "It's a duel from the future?!"

Victor continued: "Next, the effect of another 'Rock Dragon - Rocky Ridge' card in the graveyard activates!"
By removing two Dragon-type monsters, 'Fire Dragon - Burning' and 'Earth Dragon - Sediment', from the Graveyard, you can revive 'Rock Dragon - Rocky Ridge' from the Graveyard!

"Descend once more, Rock Dragon - Stone Valley!"

Two small, phantom-like dragons, one of fire and one of earth attributes, flashed by and were sucked into the dimensional vortex. A massive earthquake followed, the ground shattering once more, and countless fragments of rock coalesced, transforming back into the form of a giant rock dragon.

[Rock Dragon - Rocky Ravine, Attack Power 1600]

Game: "Again? Another high-level monster has appeared."

"It's too early to be surprised!" Victor laughed. "The 'Flame Dragon - Blast' summoned through the Flame Dragon's effect cannot attack this turn. But don't think you're safe just because of that!"

I stacked 'Flame Dragon - Blast' and 'Rock Dragon - Rockfall' on top of each other, creating a stacking network with the two monsters, and then Xyz Summoned them.

——NO.11 giant eye! ! ! "

The two dragons transformed into beams of fire and earth, respectively, intertwining and overlapping, before coalescing into a giant white cone within the storm pillar of fire and earth attributes. A terrifying single eye opened on that cone, as if endless magic power enveloped the entire area.

"Both dragons have disappeared? New monsters have appeared and been Xyz Summoned?" The outdated version of the game remained bewildered. "How is this possible? Could this really be a future duel?"

"Excellent! This is the new power after Duel Evolution!" Victor exclaimed. "Number 11, Giant Eye, activates! Remove one Xyz Material once per turn and gain control of one monster on your opponent's field!"

"I'll take your 'Magic Warrior Destroyer'!"

One of the two surrounding purple halos was absorbed by the giant eye, which then emitted a terrifying light, and the energy descended upon the magic warrior.

Although he didn't understand strange terms like "removing excess materials," there was one thing he understood.

The opponent needs to take advantage of their own monster!
"Activate face down!" Yugi exclaimed, "Quick-Play Spell 'Dimensional Spell'!"
Tribute a Spellcaster monster you control to Special Summon 1 Spellcaster monster from your hand, then you can destroy any other monster on the field!

The game was played with a wave of the hand.

"I will sacrifice 'Magic Warrior Destroyer' to destroy your 'No. 11 Giant Eye'!"
