Yu-Gi-Oh! Your Friends Are Fighting Out of the Underworld

Chapter 296 Cutting flesh with a dull knife

So there's a reason why pirated cards often use the name "Orichalcos," since the original effect is rather abstract.

In an era when card effects were not high, "Orichalcos" was an indestructible barrier once it was formed, and it would take two explosions to destroy the field.

Not to mention, he's still constantly recovering his health!

"Thanks to the power of 'Orichalcos,' I now have seven monsters on my field, thus I can recover a total of 3500 LP."

【DAZIP LP: 3500→7000】

Then, this guy basically does this every round.

What can be said?

"I can only say that it's a good thing I don't play high-attack decks."

Looking at Dazi's green light that was almost overflowing from his head, You Ming's lips curled into a smirk.

Now, all he needs to do is speed things up as much as possible.

"And then, I'll end this round here..."

"At that moment, I activated my face-down card, 'Bitter Merza,' and released 'Necromancer King' from the field, adding a monster from my deck that has the exact same Level, Type, and Attribute as 'Necromancer King' to my hand."

Green awns, blood mist slowly swirling around.

As the card flipped, the group that also existed as the undead revealed itself:
"I've added 'Vampire - Dragonblood Lord' to my hand."

"Actively releasing monsters...tsk."

Dartz had clearly figured something out, but unfortunately, he no longer had the chance to retaliate.

"My turn, draw a card—Preparation phase, I relinquish the maintenance of 'Duke of the Dead,' causing it to be destroyed."

Immediately, the seemingly ordinary zombie disintegrated.

Within the blood mist, burning bright red dragon eyes, like flames:
"Then activate the effect of 'Undead King': if a Field Spell is on the field, it can be Special Summoned from the Graveyard in Defense Position."

The Deathly Lord

"def/2300"

"Next, because of the effect of 'Bone Tower Absorbing Essence,' you have to send two cards from your deck to the graveyard. Then, because of the effect of 'Corpse Ninja,' I draw one card from my deck, and then send 'Dragonblood King,' which I just retrieved, to the graveyard. Finally, because a Zombie monster activated its effect, therefore..."

'Click'

The Necromancer Lord raised his scepter high, and the true ruby, which should have been dull, shone with a dazzling brilliance:

"I'll simply exclude 'Chidara' from your backfield."

"Wait a minute, with 'Orichalcos' present, shouldn't the monsters in the back row act as shields for the monsters in the front row?!"

The original work states that when there is a monster in the front row, monsters in the back row cannot be targeted—they cannot be attacked or used as targets for effects.

Then the problem is coming...

"The 'Undead King' does not choose a target."

"what?"

"How should I put it? In your terms, do you know how much effort he put into dealing with you?"

"!"

"Bear the wrath of that abyss—the Death King, go forth."

The crimson light flashed again, leaping directly past the five "Mirror Knights" standing in the front row and striking the eyes made of orbium with pinnacle accuracy.

The outward-extending, blood vessel-like blue circuit, along with the central eyeball, was shattered, leaving only a little energy dissipation.

"Then, I activated 'Advanced Draw,' Tributing 'Necromancer King' on the field, drawing two cards from my deck, and then..."

You Ming glanced at the card he had drawn and a smile crept onto his face.
"Activate the effect of 'Spiritwalker-Zombie' to send 'Spectral Ghost Sleeping Beauty' from your Deck to the Graveyard. If 'Sleeping Beauty' is sent to the Graveyard, I add 'Spectral Ghost Fusion' from my Deck to my hand."

"Ghost Fusion..."

"An undead-specific fusion card, sounds pretty powerful, right?" You Ming's lips curled into a smirk.

"It's just that I don't have any good terminals on hand."

"..."

Dartz did not respond to this.

Seeing his unyielding attitude, You Ming simply shrugged.

Then, he showed the card in his hand:

"Next, activate the Spell Card 'Monster Gate,' Tribute 'Spirit Knight' whose effects have already been used, and flip cards from the top of your Deck until a monster that can be Normal Summoned appears, then Special Summon that monster."

As flesh and blood decomposed, the remains of the skeletal ninja were enveloped in layers, eventually forming a flying dragon of corpses.

"The card I flipped was 'Spectral Wyvern,' so I Special Summoned it."

"Ghost Wyvern (lv4)"

"atk/900"

"Then I sent all the remaining flipped cards to the graveyard. Up to 'Ghost Wyvern,' I flipped five cards, so I sent all five to the graveyard."

After slowly placing the card into the graveyard, he tapped the duel disk with his fingers:

"At the same time, when 'Spectral Wyvern' is Special Summoned, I can also add a second 'Spectral Fusion' to my hand, and 'Spirit Summoned' through its own effect will return to the bottom of the deck after leaving the field, and finally..."

He laughed, and the wide grin made Daz involuntarily reveal an ugly expression comparable to that of someone dining at a members-only restaurant.

"Because a new Undead monster was Special Summoned to the field, according to the effect of 'Bone Tower'... you know what I mean?"

"Tsk."

To be honest, he had never played such a frustrating hand before.

It was one thing to misjudge the opponent's tactics at the beginning, which led to a widening gap in card advantage, but even after he became withdrawn, he found himself being suppressed even more.

It's like a dull knife that's always there; with the slightest movement, it will fall from the sky and cut off a piece of his flesh.

But rules are rules, and even he must abide by the underlying logic of 'duel'.

"I send two cards from my deck to the graveyard."

"Next, I activate the effect of 'Duke of the Dead,' which was destroyed earlier due to not paying the cost. I banish it, return 'Minotaur' from the Graveyard to my hand, and then summon it directly."

「Bull-headed Demon (lv4)」

"atk/1700"

"Next comes the effect of the Minotaur, which sends the Zombie-Type monster 'Nine-Tails' from the Deck to the Graveyard."

After a series of actions, all Daz saw was a thick layer of dust piled up on the grave mound.

So, what exactly is he trying to do?
Thinking of this, Darz couldn't help but look back at the tower.

Even now, encased in precious metal armor, resembling a metal tower, it still exudes intense malice from within.

It was intense hatred, vast darkness, yet capable of being used by him.

So, given that he can't attack, does he really intend to make this the core of his tactics?!
'bang'

In a daze, he felt as if he were hallucinating, as if the tower had split in two.

But soon, the wailing of the vengeful spirit brought him back to his senses:
"It's not... an illusion?"

The vengeful spirits roared as they attacked, instantly invading his deck and shattering his resources.

"Equip the Spell "Necromantic Remnant," I've equipped it to "Bone Tower Absorbing Essence," which will Special Summon a "Remnant" on the field that has the exact same ATK, DEF, Level, Type, Attribute, and even effect as it (original effect)."

"..."
