Yu-Gi-Oh!: This isn't a duel!

【Yan Demon Dragon Crimson Lotus Demon - Burial】【10 Stars】

[Dark/Dragon Race] [Attack: 3500, Defense: 3000]

You Yang raised an eyebrow. It was actually this monster?

He then remembered that there was indeed such a 10-star Synchro Monster in the Crimson Dragon's main lineage.

It doesn't necessarily have to switch to the general-purpose terminal he just thought of.

Jord Rosen turned his gaze to You Yang, expecting to see a surprised expression on his face, but instead found a hint of... regret in You Yang's eyes.

This left him somewhat puzzled.

But his duel rhythm was not interrupted, and he continued to unfold his own story!

Chapter 147 The Demon King Liberated from the Darkness of the Abyss! Yan Demon Dragon Crimson Lotus Demon - Abyss!

He immediately raised his arm, his palm decisively pointing to the [Red Lotus Demon - Burial] he had just summoned on the field, and declared loudly:

"I activate the effect of [Crimson Lotus Demon of the Jade Dragon - Burial]!"

"You can activate this effect by Tributing 1 monster you control, then targeting 1 'Bullet Demon' monster in your Graveyard. Special Summon that monster."

"I choose to release myself and Special Summon [Crimson Demon] from the Graveyard!"

The churning, scorching magma surged upwards as if it were alive, instantly engulfing [Yan Demon Dragon Crimson Lotus Demon - Burial].

Amidst this scene of destruction and rebirth, what emerges anew is a crimson figure possessing an even purer and more violent power—the [True Crimson Lotus Demon]!

This maneuver looks like he's just jumping around on the field repeatedly, wasting resources and making no sense.

However, in the ingenious duel structure of Yu-Gi-Oh!, this "repeated back-and-forth" is precisely a very important point of operation.

It can quickly and effectively accumulate cemetery resources, laying a solid foundation for a more powerful expansion or outbreak in the future.

As You Yang's gaze swept over the scene that Jord Rosen had finally laid out, a trace of indescribable regret still swept through his heart.

The Crimson Dragon deck seems to be more inclined to unleash a burst of damage on the second turn rather than suppressing the opponent on the first turn.

If it were any other deck, the final board state it could create without any interference from the opponent would be far more terrifying than what we see now.

Although Jord Rosen's entire unfolding process was grand and visually stunning.

However, in reality, the core suppression point mainly relies on the non-destructive banishment ability of [True Crimson Supernova Dragon] and the card-destroying effect provided by the [True Crimson Zone] covering the back row.

His venue even lacked the most crucial effect: ineffective impedance.

This combination of attacks might be particularly effective against specific decks that are extremely afraid of banishment but can resist effect destruction.

However, against other decks, this level of pressure is somewhat insufficient.

The faint look of shock from the successive appearances of powerful dragons on Lilith's face had not yet completely faded, but You Yang's expression had returned to its usual calm and serene state.

The game isn't absolutely dominating, but with my current hand, I can win.

Jord Rosen glanced at his remaining cards and spoke again in a deep voice, announcing that his turn was not yet over.

"My turn isn't over yet!"

"I activate the effect of my [Crimson Nova]!"

"If there is a Level 8 or higher Dragon Synchro Monster on the field, this card can be Special Summoned from your hand."

"Appear! [Crimson Nova]!"

A petite figure, exuding an ominous aura, accompanied by a few crimson feathers, swooped down from the reddened sky and gently landed on the field.

A pair of crimson wings, seemingly made of congealed blood, fluttered slightly behind him, shimmering.

【Crimson Nova】【1 Star】

[Fire/Adjustment/Angel Race] [Attack: 0, Defense: 0]

This card also possesses demonic power.

However, Jord Rosen didn't care at all about its origin.

As long as this power can be used by him and help him achieve victory, that's enough!

I actually still have some spare parts left...

You Yang's eyes flickered slightly, but this card, [Crimson Nova], is usually not included in a normal Crimson Dragon deck, right?

After all, the Resonator archetype already has a Level 1 Tuner monster, and those cards can be shuffled by deck effects and are easy to Special Summon, so there is no need to include this card.

But unexpectedly, Jord Rosen took a different approach and successfully used it at this moment.

So, what he will summon next is almost self-evident.

Jord Rosen steadily picked up the two cards on the field, his crimson energy surging once more as he chanted loudly:

"I'm upgrading the Level 1 Tuner monster [Crimson Nova] and the Level 8 [Crimson Demon] on the field!"

The two monsters on the field instantly transformed into a dazzling white streak and a deep dark red streak, intertwining as they plunged into the still-boiling magma underground.

Jord Rosen's voice, seemingly resonating with magma, boomed back:

"O Demon King, liberated from the darkness of the abyss!"

"Let all the pent-up anger explode right now!"

Synchro Summon!

"Descend! [Crimson Lotus Demon of the Jade Dragon - Abyss]!"

The magma surged violently, and yet another imposing figure tore through the scorching lava, descending proudly!

This is a demon dragon with an appearance and skeleton almost identical to [Yanmolong Honglianmo·Zang], but upon closer inspection, there are significant differences between the two.

The body structure of [Yanmolong Crimson Lotus Demon - Burial] is closer to an upright humanoid, while [Yanmolong Crimson Lotus Demon - Abyss] presents a crouching predatory posture that is closer to that of traditional dragons.

The body of "Yuan" is a deeper dark red, covered with a metallic exoskeleton that looks like it has been tempered by hellfire. Its wings are made of leaping blue flames and white bones, and its thick tail is wrapped with cold black chains.

Thick, almost tangible, dark red miasma continuously emanated from its body, swirling and spreading around it, making its figure appear even more eerie and unpredictable amidst the swirling evil aura, exuding an unsettling sense of oppression.

【Yan Demon Dragon Crimson Lotus Demon - Abyss】【9 Stars】

[Dark/Dragon Race] [Attack: 3200, Defense: 2500]

Looking at the imposing and sinister figure that had once again appeared on the field, You Yang couldn't help but feel a slight headache.

Although, judging from the star rank, [Yan Demon Dragon Crimson Lotus Demon - Abyss] seems to be a lower-ranking existence than [Yan Demon Dragon Crimson Lotus Demon - Burial].

After all, one is a 9-star and the other is a 10-star, but their actual strength and effects are worlds apart.

Among them, the interference and countermeasures capabilities of [Yan Demon Dragon Crimson Lotus Demon - Abyss] are much more troublesome than those of [Yan Demon Dragon Crimson Lotus Demon - Burial].

Under the right conditions, [Yanmolong Crimson Lotus Demon Abyss] can even negate many top-tier removal techniques.

For example, the [Hades Barrier Wave] cannot be chained.

Provided the conditions are met, the [Yan Demon Dragon Crimson Lotus Demon Abyss] can also be erased from him.

Now, Jord Rosen's terminal situation has an additional layer of troublesome resistance that requires careful handling.

"Next, I'll activate the effect of [Love Transformation Lupu] in the graveyard!" Jord Rosen's maneuvering continued.

"If this card is in your Graveyard, you can target 1 Synchro Monster on your field or in your Graveyard to activate this effect."

"Except for that monster, add this card to your hand."

"I choose to banish [Crimson Dragon] from the graveyard and add [Love-Infused Lupu] to my hand!"

Jord Rosen no longer intends to summon any new monsters. This move is more about preparing for the next turn's sustainability and also about providing more possibilities for his back row cards.

Then, Jord Rosen took a deep breath, pointed to the largest object on the field, and his voice was filled with pride:

"Now, the first effect of [True Crimson Supernova Dragon] is activated!"

"This card gains 500 ATK for each Tuner monster in your Graveyard!"

"My graveyard currently contains five Tuner monsters: Horizon Resonator, Synchro Clone Resonator x2, Crimson Resonator, and Crimson Nova!"

"Therefore, the attack power of [True Crimson Supernova Dragon] will increase by 2500 points!"

With his declaration, the crimson crystal core on the chest of the [True Crimson Lotus Supernova Dragon] erupted with an even more dazzling light, and the star ring energy band surrounding his body spun rapidly, with a vast amount of power surging into his body!

【True Crimson Lotus Supernova Dragon】【Attack Power: 4000 → 6500】【Defense Power: 3000】

"Furthermore, based on its own effects, [True Crimson Supernova Dragon] cannot be destroyed by the opponent's effects!"

Jord Rosen added, his voice strong and clear.

"Attack power... 6500 points! And it won't be affected by effects..."

Lilith gazed at Jord Rosen's mountain-like dragon on the field and murmured to herself.

The sheer power displayed by this monster was unexpectedly immense.

Although she is not the kind of superficial duelist who only values ​​attack power, higher attack power is always more intimidating in any case.

Moreover, a monster with such demanding summoning conditions and enormous resource consumption should possess powerful abilities commensurate with its existence.

But that's even better!

A sharp glint flashed in Lilith's eyes.

Deep down, she hoped that Jord Rosen would defeat You Yang in this duel.

Only in this way can Tiandao Lian, that stubborn idiot, truly understand that they don't need to rely on any illusory "divine favored ones".

With their own strength, they are capable of fighting against and even killing gods!

Sleeping gods should sleep peacefully and not suddenly rise from the dead!

"Whew—I'm ending my round!"

Jord Rosen let out a long breath, his face showing obvious signs of fatigue. His previous fervent fighting spirit seemed to have been drained away, and fine beads of sweat even appeared on his forehead.

His mental strength is actually quite good; he would never be so obviously weak during a normal high-intensity duel.

However, summoning monsters of the level of [True Crimson Supernova Dragon] and [Eternal Demon Dragon Crimson Demon Abyss] in succession is no ordinary operation.

They consume an enormous amount of his mental energy, draining it like a whale devouring it, which is why he appears somewhat weak at this moment.

However, in his opinion, it was all worth it!
