Print the card! Then summon the Shura Field.

Chapter 102 [Sona, the Sage Doll of the Elf World] (4K)

Based on the effect, Shen Yi returned [Surrounding Recall] to the top of the deck.

At this moment, Xu Ran had already shown an expression of existential doubt.

Shen Yi knew what he was thinking.

But Shen Yi also found it difficult to explain this.

After all, his main purpose in modifying the [Disaster Charity Gala] was to fit [Sage Doll Sona from the Elf World].

Sona's effect is that the user declares a slot, then flips over the top card of the minion or spell deck to confirm and activate the corresponding effect.

The reason he took a liking to Sona from among so many puppet followers was precisely because of this effect.

It has two slots: [Elf] and [Doll], and it can also synergize with Ilovena's effects.

It can only be said that Xu Ran was unlucky enough to run into the line of fire.

But there's nothing we can do about it.

This is how the Star Duel works.

Sometimes, when two familiar opponents engage in a duel, the outcome often hinges on their very first meeting.

If you kill me the first time you meet, then I will kill you the first time I meet.

That's fair.

Seeing that his sure-win strategy had been broken, Xu Ran felt dejected.

However, he quickly cheered up.

After all, at least I haven't been defeated yet.

As long as Shen Yi doesn't defeat him in one round, he still has a chance to win.

Moreover, he still has 21000 health points.

As long as you can defend against [Mischievous Fairy Vera], you should be able to survive until your next turn.

Thinking of this, Xu Ran took two deep breaths and exclaimed, "Amazing, truly amazing!"

He looked at Shen Yi and said with genuine admiration, "You printed this card yourself, didn't you? That's amazing."

The card for the "Disaster Charity Gala" features Nangong Ai singing to the little elves, so Xu Ran immediately recognized that it must be a card printed by Shen Yi himself.

Only in this way can Shen Yi transfer the images in his mind onto the card.

Although he wasn't familiar with Nangong Ai, Xu Ran was genuinely happy that Aunt Pei and Uncle Nangong's daughter had found such a good duelist boss.

Perhaps one day Shen Yi will be able to stand on the highest dueling stage in the Starry World with the daughter of the Nangong family.

However—

I'm not that easy to beat.

With that thought in mind, Xu Ran drew four spell cards from his hand and placed them face down on his field.

During the discard phase before the end of his turn, he discarded 3 cards, bringing his life points to 24000.

"My turn is over," Xu Ran said, looking at Shen Yi.

"My turn," Shen Yi smoothly took over the turn, "Draw a card!"

He drew the only card from his spell deck.

He quickly scanned his hand and immediately announced the start of his first summon.

"Ilovena, I will fight for you."

Ilovena's calm and rational voice rang out.

Princess Ilovena, the fairy, answered Shen Yi's call.

Looking at Ilovina on the field, Shen Yi smiled.

Speaking of which, shouldn't I start preparing for Ilovena's coronation ceremony?

Although it's a bit rudimentary, it might allow Ilovena to unlock a new form.

Furthermore, due to its simplicity, it allows Ilovena to obtain a new form for free during her second coronation ceremony when the country prospers again.

With that thought in mind, Shen Yi activated Ilovena's effect.

He decisively paid 7000 life points and then flipped over the top seven cards of his deck.

Upon seeing these cards, Shen Yi's pupils contracted slightly.

"Xu Ran—" He looked at Xu Ran, grinned, "Looks like I'm having a lucky day."

Perhaps this is the gift of fate after killing Kashu?

Although this gift of fate was somewhat unworthy of his achievement in killing Kashu, Shen Yi actually liked it quite a bit.

With that in mind, Shen Yi quickly adjusted the card order and then sent [Little Fairy Rhea] and [Little Fairy Klee] to the graveyard.

"Then!"

Shen Yi placed his hand directly on the card at the top of the follower deck.

He plans to issue a second summons.

He originally didn't have enough material for a general recruitment drive.

However, because of Leia's presence, Shen Yi is exempt from releasing materials.

He activated the effect of Rhea in the graveyard, banishing Rhea, and then revealed and summoned [Sage Doll of the Elf World - Sona], which he had moved to the top of his deck.

Accompanied by the light of the summoning, a broken puppet appeared on Shen Yi's field.

Her long, golden hair cascaded down like a waterfall, covering her scarred body.

Her delicate features and long ears, a hallmark of elves, seemed to foreshadow her elven identity.

However, the severed limbs did not look like real people, but rather like dolls.

Through the wound, you can even vaguely see the cotton stuffing inside.

However, these wounds were stitched up with clumsy needlework, like mending a rag doll that had been played with and broken.

A brand new elf minion?

wrong----

It appears to be a doll.

As she watched Shen Yi summon [Sage Doll Sona from the Elf World], several thoughts flashed through Thirteen Princess's mind as she focused on Shen Yi's duel.

Could it be that...?

Is Shen Yi's puppet follower named Vera really a Soul Card from the Puppet World?

After all, the lack of officially recorded rare slots, along with other followers in the same slot, has long been one of the criteria used by StarCraft World to determine whether a follower is a Soul Card follower.

As Thirteen Princess pondered, it seemed that a certain barrier that had been covering her mind was broken.

A series of judgments about Vera's identity flashed through her mind, causing Thirteen Princess to have some doubts.

Strange—when I first saw Vera, I also seemed to suspect that she might be a Soul Card follower from the Puppet World. Why didn't I continue to pay attention to this matter later?

With the official debut of Sona, who is also a doll, it is foreseeable that more people will become aware of Vera's existence, thus breaking through the passive cognitive barrier left by Vera through her items.

However, Shen Yi had already anticipated this.

He never intended to hide Vera's Soul Card identity.

In fact, Vera's Soul Card identity could even give him more opportunities to duel.

Shen Yi, who was in the dueling arena, was unaware of the storm that Sona's appearance would bring.

He glanced at the cards on Xu Ran's field and said, "Activate the ① effect of [Sage Doll of the Elf World - Sona]. If she is Summoned or Special Summoned, I can choose to activate this effect from my spell deck or follower deck."

"Announce the card name, then turn over the top card of the selected deck to confirm."

"If the card I reveal matches the card I declare, send the revealed card to the Graveyard. Then I can target your Spell Zone, Follower Zone, Deck Zone, or Hand Zone to activate this effect."

"If you have more cards in your zone than I have in my zone, then send the corresponding cards to the graveyard until both of us have the same number of cards in the same zone."

After saying that, Shen Yi announced, "I hereby declare: [Little Elf Anna]."

After Shen Yi finished speaking, he turned over the top card of the follower deck.

The top five images were all adjusted by Ilovena, and Shen Yi naturally knew who they were.

"Look, today is another lucky day," Shen Yi grinned at Xu Ran.

You call this good luck?

Didn't you rearrange the card order yourself?

Xu Ran's lips twitched slightly, and then she saw Shen Yi pointing to his spell area.

Based on Sona's effect, he needs to send cards from the spell zone to the graveyard until the number of cards on both sides is the same.

There are no cards in Shen Yi's spell zone! This means that Xu Ran is going to send all the spell cards on the field to the graveyard.

Xu Ran definitely couldn't accept this.

He opened the card without hesitation.

"I won't let you succeed! Activate the counter spell card [Fossilized Shard] to negate and destroy the effects of your activated follower cards!"

"That won't do." Shen Yi certainly wouldn't let Xu Ran have her way. "When you activate a spell card, activate the effect of [Klee the Little Fairy] in the graveyard, and send the top card of my follower deck to the graveyard. If it's a [Fairy] follower, negate the effect of the card you activated!"

Xu Ran gritted his teeth, ignoring the defense against [Mischievous Fairy Vera]. If Shen Yi's effect passed smoothly, he would be in trouble later.

He decisively drew the instant spell card [Mysterious Horn] from his hand, negating Klee's effect.

Then, Shen Yi drew [Little Elf's Star Wish], which nullified the effect of [Mysterious Giant Horn].

As Sona opened her eyes, Xu Ran's spell zone was instantly cleared of cards.

hateful----

I should have dug more.

He still has a few cards left in his spell deck that haven't been unearthed.

All I can say is that he was a little too excited when he drew the [Forbidden Magic Iron Token].

That's overestimating me.

However, even so—

"Oh, right." Just when Xu Ran thought he could hold on a little longer, Shen Yi suddenly spoke up again, "Sona's effect isn't just once per round."

"Huh?" Xu Ran was taken aback.

"If I declare success, effect ① is considered not activated." Shen Yi placed his hand on his follower deck. "In other words, I can keep declaring success until I declare failure."

"————Huh?" Xu Ran exclaimed in surprise.

What the hell is this card?!

He finally believed that Shen Yi probably wasn't stealing dogs.

That instant-cast spell card was probably activated in conjunction with Sona's effect when Ilovena wasn't available.

This time, Xu Ran had no way to stop Sona's effect from activating.

Shen Yi declared success once again, and then had Xu Ran adjust the number of cards in the follower area to the same number as Shen Yi's.

This made Xu Ran somewhat depressed.

Because Sona's effect is a player effect, sending his follower cards to the graveyard cannot trigger any instant spells in his hand.

Thinking about this, Xu Ran suddenly realized that this Sona seemed to be quite a nemesis to him.

If she is summoned during his own turn, then Shen Yi can even use her effect to adjust his own hand.

By then, most of the cards you painstakingly mined will probably be discarded.

However, all of this is predicated on Shen Yi knowing what the top card in the deck is.

As Xu Ran was thinking, he heard Shen Yi activate Sona's effect for the third time.

He announced the [Little Elf Emily], and after the announcement was successful, he sent Emily to the graveyard.

This time, he adjusted the number of cards in both players' hand areas.

Since Xu Ran had fewer cards in his hand than Shen Yi at this time, this effect was essentially useless.

What does this mean?

Is it for building a grave?

"Next," Shen Yi grinned, "I first activated the effect of [Little Sprite Emily] in the graveyard, paying half of my life points to return Emily to the deck to activate her effect, and both players swapped cards in their banished zone and graveyard."

Prevent my grave?

Xu Ran muttered to himself.

But I don't seem to have any graves.

Xu Ran pondered this question, and then heard Shen Yi say, "If I declare success three times in a row during effect ①, then the activation conditions for Sona's effect ② will be met."

② What are the effects?

What?

Then he heard Shen Yi say, "Based on Sona's effect, I can adjust my or my opponent's health until both of us have the same health."

"???"

Xu Ran was stunned when he heard about the effect.

Then, he saw his health points drop rapidly at a visible rate, eventually stopping at 500.

He finally understood why Shen Yi had activated Emily's effect.

Damn it, they just wanted to reduce his health by another 500 points!

Because of the effect of Ilovena, Shen Yi had already paid 7000 health points. When he activated Emilu's effect, his health points dropped to 500.

Since there are only four cards left in hand, the two remaining miner minions on the field both have a Spirit value of 210.

Ilovena's Spirit value is 2200.

Sona's value is 500.

That's exactly the 500-point kill threshold.

"Holy shit!"

Xu Ran believed that he would remain calm and composed no matter what the situation was like in a duel.

But faced with this scene, he still couldn't hold back.

The key point is that this was even without Shen Yi activating many spell cards in his hand.

Even so, Shen Yi had already reached the kill threshold.

Thinking of this, Xu Ran showed a relieved expression.

"Wow, that's amazing!"

He looked into Shen Yi's eyes and said.

Actually, at this point, he could still take a gamble and pretend he still had some cards up his sleeve.

If Shen Yi really didn't attack because he was afraid, then I would still have a sliver of hope.

But this is not Xu Ran's personality.

He knew perfectly well that he had no other options left.

The spell zone has been overturned.

The cards in the graveyard have all been replaced.

There are only four spell cards for the next turn.

Resistance is pointless now.

However, he did not concede defeat outright.

After all, they've worked so hard, so we should still leave them a chance to finish them off.

Surrendering directly would leave a slight regret even if you win.

Shen Yi, however, hesitated slightly as he looked at Xu Ran's composed acceptance of defeat.

Could there be some kind of trap here?

He used to pretend to be Tang to deceive his opponents.

However, if we don't kill him this time, we might not have another chance.

Moreover, a quick kill by blocking the line is an opportunity that most duelists wouldn't refuse.

Therefore, Shen Yi did not hesitate any longer and entered the battle phase after covering two spell cards.

As Ilovena and Sona's attacks landed, Xu Ran's health points dropped to zero.
