Chapter 395 The Wrathful Clan of Kusha vs. Maris

When the enemy is in the dark while we are in the light, and the opponent knows our deck while we know nothing about the enemy, players usually have two choices.

One approach is the "Royal Path to Conquest," where players use their strongest deck to face their opponents head-on. For example, Chu Chan, even though [Illusion] was banned, still believed in his [Conqueror's Spirit] and then drew a series of powerful cards on the field.

This is the confidence of a king, the script of a hero.

Knowing full well that there are tigers in the mountains, yet still venturing into the tiger's den, is a tragic and heroic act. If victorious, it will be enough to compose a magnificent triumphant song, inspiring countless future generations.

But now, the entire audience, the Joker, and Lightning McMurray, the commentator in the helicopter, all clearly understand one thing.

Li Guanqi is clearly not the kind of hot-blooded hero.

To be precise, he sometimes becomes the kind of person who, knowing he'll be targeted, stubbornly uses his own deck.

The prerequisite is to use [Silver City], but unfortunately, it's not available in the Shenwu card pool.

He would indeed believe in his own [Silver City].

As for whether you believe you will win or lose, that's none of your business.

"Li Li Guanqi player!" Lightning Mai reacted, gripping the microphone, veins bulging on his neck, and roaring with all his might, "Abandon the [Carving Demon] you've always relied on!"

"A brave man cuts off his own arm!"

A single sentence, a single word, is like a boulder thrown into a still lake, stirring up countless waves.

The clamor, discussions, and exclamations merged into a scorching wave of sound, overturning the abandoned medical area.

"interesting!"

"Come on, Joker! I need to see people's memories! What's in their heads?!"

"You've been hiding it well, haven't you?" The clown's astonishment slowly faded, replaced by a slight, cold smile.

I had a vague feeling about it ever since the Gulatia League, when this guy changed the entire main strategy in the side game.

The person in front of me cannot be judged by common sense.

His playing style is unconventional.

The clown slowly raised his head, the flippancy and mockery in his eyes disappearing.

interesting.

That's what makes it interesting...

The clown chuckled softly and drew the first card from his hand with swift, decisive movements.

"Activate a perpetual spell."

He slammed the card onto the duel disk.

"【The harbor of the Kusha-Nirvana Clan】!"

The phantom unfolded in mid-air, revealing a silver port suspended in the depths of the universe, exuding a cold, technological feel.

"With this card on the field, the Summoning of your Level 7 monsters will no longer require any tributes!"

The duelists present all knew what this meant.

"Warm-up is over, Li Guanqi."

The clown looked up, his eyes devoid of any mockery, filled only with pure fighting spirit.

"Now, I'll show you what real pressure is!"

He drew another card from his hand and held it high.

"Descend, you cosmic wolf that tears apart reality!"

"【Fenrir Wolf of the Kusha-nu-wei clan】!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the space in the center of the dock began to distort, and a deep red energy vortex appeared out of thin air.

Immediately afterwards, a ferocious werewolf wielding a giant axe stepped out from within!

An invisible pressure immediately came over them, causing the audience in the front row to subconsciously take a step back.

"Here it comes! [Fenrir Wolf]!" Lightning Wheat shouted excitedly.

"The effect of [Fenrir Wolf] is activated!" The Joker spoke rapidly, giving no one a chance to react, "Add one [Kusan's Wrath] monster from your deck to your hand!"

The duel disk automatically popped out cards, which he stylishly held between his fingers and stuffed into his hand without even glancing at them.

"I add [Kusha's Wrathful Clan - Rashard] to my hand."

Resources are replenished instantly.

Li Guanqi remained silent, his eyes showing no emotion whatsoever.

The calmer he remained, the more his supporters in the audience worried for him.

"There are two level 7 monsters, are they coming?" Lightning McIlroy's eyes widened as he poked his head out of the helicopter door.

"It's not over yet." The clown grinned in an exaggerated smile, pointing his palm at the two monsters on the field.

"I'll stack the level 7 Fenrir Wolf with the Unicorn!"

The two colossal beasts roared and transformed into two streaks of light, swirling and intersecting in mid-air before finally plunging into the dark red cosmic nebula that had appeared out of nowhere.

"Super Summon!"

The clown spread his arms wide, embracing his masterpiece, his voice echoing throughout the arena.

"Born from the endless abyss of rage! The final cocoon imprisoning all existence and hope!"

"Rank 7 - [The Shangri-La Cocoon of the Kusha Nuwei Clan]!"

boom!
Amidst violent spatial tremors, an enormous mechanical construct slowly descended from the nebula.

It was a giant mechanical cocoon that enveloped the entire arena, its inner walls covered with scarlet patterns. Above the cocoon, countless mechanical eyes slowly opened, shooting out beams of red lasers. The inorganic matter scanned the entire arena, marking its territory.

The mere existence of this place is enough to send shivers down one's spine.

"It's not over yet!" The clown's offensive didn't stop. He flipped over a card and slammed it onto the Duel Disk. "There is a [Kusha's Wrath] monster on the field. The effect of my hand card [Kusha's Wrath - Rashard] is activated."

"Special Summon this card!"

A flash of red light appeared, and a red-haired man appeared below the Shangri-La cocoon. His eyes were sharp, burning with an inextinguishable rage.

"It's here! [Shangri-La Cocoon] and [Reishart]!" Lightning Mai excitedly leaned halfway out of the helicopter. If someone hadn't been holding him back, he probably would have fallen. "[Kusha's Wrathful Clan]'s classic suppression scene! Next, as long as [Reishart] activates its effect, it will trigger the effect of [Shangri-La Cocoon], sealing off one area of ​​Li Guanqi's team!"

"At the same time—" "[Leshardt] will evolve into [Aleshardt]!"

Everyone held their breath, watching the duel arena with bated breath.

The wind and noise gradually subsided, but strangely, the clown remained motionless.

He just stood there, letting the duel system's "waiting for the opponent's action" prompt flash, only raising his eyes to stare intently at the man opposite him who remained expressionless from beginning to end.

The effect of [Leshard] is an activation effect; it can only be activated after the opponent confirms that no action has been taken.

But what can he do at this point?
【Primal Life Form Nibiru】 does not yet meet the activation conditions, and 【Infinite Bubble】 would have been used long ago, or it should be chained to the effect of 【Leshard】.

"What are you planning to do now?" the clown finally couldn't help but ask, his voice wary.

The audience was completely silent; even whispers ceased.

Just then, Li Guanqi, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up: "I really like what you just said."

The clown frowned: "What do you mean?"

Li Guanqi slowly flipped a card from his hand, his fingertips lightly tracing the edge of the card, his movements utterly devoid of any fuss.

"The outcome of the duel."

He raised his eyes, his gaze passing through the red laser beams projected by the Shangri-La Cocoon, and stared directly at the clown.

"It was decided the moment the deck was built!"

The moment he finished speaking, Li Guanqi flipped over the cards in his hand.

That was a card that clashed with the ferocious and violent art style of the [Kusha's Wrathful Clan] on the field.

On the card, a rabbit-eared girl dressed in blue is raising her gun and aiming it at the enemy.

The clown's smile froze.

Outside the stadium, the man in the green jacket suddenly leaned forward, his pupils dilating violently.

"Activate the effect of [Marys <Pawn> March Hare] in your hand!"

Li Guanqi drew another card from his hand, briefly displayed it, and then inserted it into the banished slot of the duel disk.

"By banishing [Marys <Pawn> White Rabbit] from my hand, this card—"

"Special summons!"

A soft light appeared, and the March Hare materialized. She curiously examined the enormous mechanical cocoon above her head, wiped the gun in her hand, and her eyes were filled with fighting spirit.

His choice of [Marys] was not random. Firstly, this deck is already quite strong and is relatively resistant to dimensional decks.

However, this deck is very vulnerable to being countered.

Unlike mainstream builds like [Thunder and Fire], even if you know your opponent is using [Thunder and Fire] and that [Dimensional Barrier] can counter it, you might not necessarily bring [Dimensional Barrier] because you're unsure if you can get the first strike.

What are the counter cards for [Malice]? [Ancient Relic - Holy Lance] and [Chaos Hunter], plus some [Phantom Creation Dragon] for draw filtering. They can suppress opponents both in the first and second turn. Once information is leaked, the opponent will definitely fill up with these counter cards.

Therefore, before the start of the competition, he preferred not to practice cards in order to ensure that information was not leaked.

"Mammalis!" Lightning Mai's voice changed on the helicopter, and his mouth opened wide in an exaggerated manner.

"Player Li Guanqi... is using the [Marys] deck!"

The audience erupted in cheers: "Wow—!"

"so cute!"

"What's going on? The art style is too cute! It doesn't match the contestants at all!"

"Special Summon during the opponent's turn, what a powerful effect."

On the dueling field, the Joker's expression grew increasingly grim.

The audience is the only ones who can laugh; he can't laugh.

A bead of cold sweat slid down his forehead and dripped onto the ground.

[Malice]...

Why is this deck here? And why is it this man using it?

The outcome of a duel is decided the moment the deck is constructed...

That statement was not just empty boasting or trash talk.

Being plotted!

"In cases where [Marys <Pawn> White Rabbit] is excluded," Li Guanqi raised his hand, pointing to the other dimension, "Pay 300 base points to activate the effect."

Om-!
On the virtual screen of the duel board, the red base score representing Li Guanqi jumped slightly.

Red team basic points: 8000 → 7700
"Special Summon this card!"

A soft light shone beside the March Hare, and a bunny-eared girl in a fluffy white dress landed lightly.

Wow! Another one! Mom, I'm in love!

"Double the cuteness!"

The atmosphere in the audience was ignited, and many female audience members stood up and waved excitedly.

Two tiny bunny-eared girls stand side by side beneath the [Shangri-La Cocoon].

The scarlet mechanical patterns and the soft white halo created an extreme contrast, plunging the entire dueling arena into an eerie harmony.

The clown narrowed his eyes slightly; he didn't find [Malice] cute at all.

“Activate the effect of [Marys <Pawn> White Rabbit].” Li Guanqi raised his hand. “If this card is Normal or Special Summoned, Set one [Marys] Trap Card from your Deck to the field.”

The phantoms of three trap cards are arrayed.

Li Guanqi was undecided for a moment. He looked down and glanced at his hand – [Clown and Locked Bird], [Marys <Pawn> Cheshire Cat].

With all the distractions in hand exhausted, this step requires thorough preparation for the next turn.

His mind was racing.

If all goes as expected, the next round will involve facing [Aleshardt], [Shangri-La Cocoon], [Unicorn], [Fenrir Wolf], or [Cybermon].

Furthermore, the "Dimensional Attractor" effect is currently in effect.

We must plant a seed here that can turn the tide.

Thoughts can be uttered in the blink of an eye.

Li Guanqi raised his hand and tapped the virtual screen lightly. "I will place the [Marys <Code> MTP-07] face down on the field."

On the field, the cute white rabbit girl received the instruction, raised her hand, and randomly pressed keys in the air as if it were a keyboard.

"Da da da!"

A card pops out of Li Guanqi's Duel Disk and automatically falls into the Spell & Trap Zone, face down.

After doing all this, Li Guanqi raised his eyes and calmly looked at the clown whose face had collapsed.

"I'm fine now, please continue."

clown:"……"

"You're quite polite."

He glanced at the [MTP-07] that Li Guanqi had just set up, and his heart sank. This trap could search for a Maris monster, and if there was a [Maris] Link monster on the field, it could also banish one card on the field.

but
The Joker glanced at his last hand of cards and slowly smiled.

"By banishing the 'Sixth Generation Evil Root Purification' from my deck, I activate the effect of 'Leshardt'!" The Joker discards a card from his deck. "Ban three cards from the top of your opponent's deck face down, and this card becomes Level 7."

[Leshard] roared and charged forward, throwing a punch at Li Guanqi's head.

Li Guanqi instinctively raised his dueling disc to block.

"Bang—!" [Leshardt]'s fist struck the Duel Disk.

The three cards exploded from Li Guanqi's deck, then twisted and turned into specks of light, which were sucked into another dimension.

"Then, the card's level becomes 7!"

[Leshard]'s demeanor suddenly changed, his level rose from 4 to 7, and he cast a contemptuous sneer at Li Guanqi.

Ignoring Kaling's taunts, Li Guanqi turned to look at the banished state and saw the three cards under confinement, feeling a slight sense of relief.

Fortunately, the only one of our own family's trap cards was not caught in the crossfire.

"It's not over yet!" the clown's voice shrilled. "Activate the effect of [Shangri-La Cocoon], seal one area of ​​the opponent, and chain-activate the effect of [Purification of the Six Incarnations of Evil]!"

He pointed to the enormous mechanical cocoon above his head.

"Target the [Shangri-La Cocoon] on the field and add the [Unicorn] as its Xyz Material to my hand!"

The crimson patterns on the giant cocoon flashed, and the phantom of a card popped out and fell into the clown's hand.

"After that—" the clown held the card high, his smile maniacal, "I'll Special Summon this monster from my hand again!"

"Descend once more! The strongest servant! [Kusha's Wrathful Might - Unicorn]!"

boom!
The unicorn tore through the void and roared at the two cute bunny girls on Li Guanqi's chessboard.

[Shangri-La Cocoon] Descends a laser, sealing Li Guanqi's main monster area, position 1.

"The Unicorn is back!" Lightning McMurder exclaimed excitedly, gripping the microphone tightly. "There are two 7-star monsters on the field! Is Joker going to play that one?!"

as predicted!

The clown spread his arms wide, like a god embracing the world.

"I'll stack the level 7 [Rieshart] and [Unicorn] on the field!"

The two enormous monsters transformed into two streams of light, merging into a slowly unfolding, pitch-black cosmic vortex.

"The pitch-black, deep ocean of electronics has unleashed a chaotic current of code that erases everything!"

"Delete the data of that person who defied the system!"

"Super Summon!"

Boom——!
The vortex suddenly contracted and then exploded!

A figure composed of countless lines of code and data streams slowly descended.

"Show yourself, Rank 7—"

"【No. 89 Computer Beast System Destroyer】!"

It was a ghost made of pure information, with countless random characters swirling around it. At its core, two red lights lit up, like open eyes, locking onto Li Guanqi.

Li Guanqi's eyelids twitched slightly.

It's been a while since I've seen [Computer Beast System Destroyer].

"Hehehe..." The clown's laughter echoed as he extended a finger and made a light swipe, issuing a command.

"Remove one Xyz Material and activate the effect of [No. 89 Cybermon System Destroyer]!"

In front of the [Cybermon], a golden orb representing the [Unicorn] slowly detached from its orbit and then shattered into pure data.

The next second, Li Guanqi's Duel Disk emitted a sharp alarm!

[Warning: External data stream intrusion!]

[Accessing the extra deck...]

"Check your opponent's Extra Deck, and banish 1 face-down card from that deck!"

The clown suddenly pointed at Li Guanqi, his movements frantic and exaggerated, "Your core, your ace, your hope... hand it all over!"

A virtual screen was forcibly opened in front of Li Guanqi.

The backs of the fifteen extra deck cards are neatly arranged.

A claw made of code appeared out of thin air, ignoring all his operational permissions, and rudely searched and checked his extra deck.

It felt like someone had pried open my brain with a probe and rummaged through it.

Li Guanqi frowned, clearly disliking the feeling of being seen naked.

found it.

The code claws stopped on that card.

The clown's smile widened to its maximum: "Disappear!"

"【Queen Máris, White Chess Binding】!"

The card's phantom was violently ripped from the deck by claws, and the beautiful White Queen's figure twisted and struggled within it before being completely torn apart amidst a piercing crackling sound of electricity.

There was an uproar in the audience.

The man in the green jacket in the audience area, seeing the "White Queen" imprisoned, couldn't help but smile slightly, as if he had gotten his revenge.

"Hahaha!" the clown laughed, his voice sharp and piercing, like fingernails scraping against glass.

"This is just the beginning!"

His face, painted with oil paint, turned towards the giant cocoon above his head, and he swung his arm violently.

"Activate the effect of [Shangri-La Cocoon]! Each time an opponent's card is banished face-down, you can seal one unused zone on their field!"

Om-!
The crimson cocoon lit up again, and another laser beam shot precisely towards Li Guanqi's battlefield.

This time, it's position five at the far right.

"It's not over yet!" The clown's voice grew even louder, pointing at the data-formed ghost, "Chain activation of the [Cyber ​​Beast System Destroyer] effect!"

The red light at the core of the [Cyber ​​Beast] flickered like the pulse of a demon.

"Based on the number of cards your opponent has banished face-down, banish the same number of cards face-down from the top of your opponent's deck!"

"[The White Queen] is so pitiful living in another dimension, let's send some cards over to keep her company!"

"Data censorship!" The Joker waved forward.

"Boom!" An invisible electromagnetic wave struck Li Guanqi's duel disk.

Li Guanqi frowned, his gaze falling on the deck as he watched four cards being forcibly drawn, twisting and disappearing into thin air.

In the audience area, a boy wearing glasses shuddered in fright: "Ugh—that's disgusting."

Those nearby echoed the sentiment: "Except for the inside side, they're really inhuman."

In the duel arena, the Joker ignored the discussions, enjoying Li Guanqi's silence and the thrill of cornering his opponent.

"You have another card that has been excluded from the inside."

He pretended to have just noticed and exaggeratedly half-covered his mouth.

"Well, there's nothing we can do about it. Rules are rules—"

"Activate the effect of [Shangri-La Cocoon] again to continue the seal!"

boom!
The third laser beam strikes!
This time, Li Guanqi's fourth position in the Monster Zone was blocked!
Three eerie, deep red cocoons landed on the sealed area, pounding like heartbeats that sent chills down one's spine.

High in the sky, Lightning Mai's voice trembled slightly as he took a deep breath and roared, "Three! All three of Li Guanqi's main monster zones have been sealed off!"

"He only has positions 2 and 3 left to use!"

"The March Hare and the White Rabbit have already taken their spots, so there's no way a third monster can be fielded!"

The camera panned to the audience, where Li Guanqi's supporters all looked solemn, some even nervously biting their nails.

The man in the green jacket, however, had a completely different reaction.

He slowly pulled up his collar, looked at Li Guanqi's cramped operating space on the field, a smile on his face, and muttered something to himself.

Dead end.

Even for [Marys], having three main monster zones blocked and [Dimensional Attractor] in effect is quite a difficult situation.

Li Guanqi stood quietly, his gaze sweeping over the three cocoons on the battlefield, his expression solemn.

The March Hare and the White Rabbit also felt the pressure, twitched their ears uneasily, and held hands tightly together.

"Activate the effect of the Continuous Spell [Dockyard]." The clown grinned with satisfaction, then suddenly raised his hand, "Special Summon 1 'Kusan' monster from your Graveyard (excluding Xyz Monsters)!"

"Come back! [Kusha's Wrathful Unicorn]!"

The aloof, psychic-powered wolf has returned.
"Once during the turn when the effect of [Shangri-La Cocoon] is activated."

"【Unicorn】, a single-unit constructed and stacked network!"

The unicorn roared to the sky, its entire body transforming into a pure red pillar of energy that shot straight into the heavens.

"O wrath that tears apart dimensions!" The Joker slowly picked out a card from the Extra Deck, his voice filled with a morbid fervor.

"The absolute ruler who banishes all existence!"

"Descend here!"

Boom——!
A thunderclap exploded, tearing the void apart.

"Descend! Rank 7, [Kusha's Wrathful Clan - Aleshardt]!" The clown raised his hands to welcome his god.

A colossal figure emerged from the void rift; it was a humanoid mech nearly ten meters tall, covered entirely in thick, purplish-red armor, its lines menacing yet brimming with power.

[Kusha's Wrathful Clan - Aleshardt] Defense: 3000
"Here they come! They've finally arrived!" Lightning Mai shouted, "The King of the [Kusha's Wrathful Clan], [Aleshardt]!"

"As long as it is on the field, all cards sent to the graveyard must be banished."

"Each time a card is banished, it can choose one of those cards as Xyz Material, banish three materials, and also banish one card from the field face down!"

"Combined with [Shangri-La Cocoon], that's—a prison fallen from the sky!" The clown scoffed, spreading his hands: "My turn is over, it's your turn."

The first round is over.

Forwards: [Aleshart], [Shangri-La Cocoon], [Computer Beast]

Backfield: [Mooring Area]

Hand: 1 hidden card
Blue team basic points: 8000
The red team's sealed areas are: main monster area, position 1, position 4, and position 5.

Three Xyz Monsters, an overwhelming sense of oppression.

The March Hare and the White Rabbit shuddered and turned around at the same time, looking to Li Guanqi behind them for help.

Seeing that they were strangers to each other, they hugged each other, feeling dejected and aggrieved.

(Does anyone understand, ladies? The Duelist is a jerk.)

In the audience area, Qi Mengsi heard Victoria's disdainful cry in her mind: "I specifically chose my own card, he better win for me."

"You're really willing to spend that much," Qi Mengsi replied perfunctorily, her gaze fixed on Li Guanqi.

Li Guanqi scanned the battlefield, confirming the cards that were excluded from the inside.

Finally, he took a deep breath and pressed his fingertip to the top of the deck: "My turn, draw a card!"

As a card was drawn, all eyes turned to Li Guanqi's right hand.
