Yu-Gi-Oh!: This card wants to go to you.

He looked at Nanyang Ling provocatively, a smirk playing on his lips, confidently begging to be hit.

Only Kondo Saburo himself knew.

The card he covered was not the [Holy Reversal] card he obtained by revealing the [Golden Pot].

But -

[Reflector Force Activation].

Mirror force activation

Chapter 289 Fourth-Tier League - Trap

T1回合结束：1前1后5手，红色方LP：4000。

Kondo Saburo turned off the timer notification, looked at Nanyang Ling, and seemed completely unconcerned.

"What the hell, it's my turn, draw a card!" Nanyang Ling muttered to herself, looking to her right.

【whirlwind】

"Ness!"

He thought to himself, then played the card he had just drawn and said, "Activate Quick-Play Spell - [Whirlwind]!"

"Destroy your only card!"

A small hurricane swept across the red team's battlefield, but Kondo Saburo gave a sinister smile.

"Bam—"

The covered trap was destroyed.

"Activate the effect of [Mirror Force - Start]!" Kondo Saburo shouted excitedly. "It can only be activated if this face-down card is destroyed by an opponent's card effect and sent to the Graveyard."

Jules: "What?!"

"Hahaha!"

"Place this card from the graveyard and one [Divine Shield - Mirror Force -] face-down on the field from your hand/graveyard/deck."

"This effect can be activated during the turn a card is set!"

"Hahaha!!!"

The destroyed card returns to the field and also sets a [Mirror Force] card on someone else's deck.

This [Whirlwind] attack resulted in a negative return.

If you lose one card and your opponent gains one, the re-placed [Holy Reversal] and [Activation] cards will be out of order and their positions will be indistinguishable.

Nanyang Ling's eyes widened, realizing she had fallen into a trap, and she was speechless for a moment.

"We've been tricked," Luo Bai murmured softly. "He revealed his hand with [Holy Reversal], and then covered [Activation] with a single card."

"This looks familiar... I feel like I've seen this somewhere before..."

"Prepare, this is important." Nanyang Ling calmed down; the duel was about to continue.

"I use the effect of the card [Lemon Crystal Dragon] in my hand to discard [Smoky Crystal Tiger] to activate it, Special Summon it, and it self-destructs."

"Special Summon - [Ruby]".

"Normal Summon [Amethyst Dragon], [Ruby Crystal Bird] destroys [Amethyst Dragon], Special Summon [Central Black Crystal]."

"Adjusting the star rating of the Level 3 [Central Black Crystal] and the Level 4 [Crimson Crystal Sparrow]!"

Synchro Summon!

"Level 7, [Ghost Movement Warrior]!"

With a roar, the mechanical warrior clad in crimson armor reappeared.

Kondo Saburo's gaze suddenly turned cold.

"Advance to the combat tier!" Nanyang Ling declared.

"【Oni-Doubushi, 2600/1400】Attack 【Susanoo, 2400/1600】!"

【Oni Warrior】When battling an opponent's monster, the opponent cannot activate their effects, and the effects of monsters battling with it are negated. 【Mirror Force】and a bunch of 【War God】hand traps cannot be activated.

"boom--"

Susanoo failed in his sword fight with Oni-Dou Musha, and with a loud explosion, he turned to ashes.

Red team's LP: 4000 → 3800

"You're quite capable," Kondo Saburo said through gritted teeth, wiping away the smoke from the gunpowder.

"Likewise." Nanyang Ling proudly raised her head, strategically despising her opponent.

"Main Two".

"Excluding the graveyard [Amethyst Dragon], search for [Matrix Yellow Crystal]."

"Excluding the graveyard [Smoky Tiger], search for [Crystal Ingenuity Entry Capsule]."

"Cover two sheets."

"End of round."

T2回合结束：1前2后2手，蓝色方LP：4000。

"Hmph, interesting!" Kondo Saburo shouted, his fighting spirit ignited. "It's my turn!"

"Draw a card!"

A reassuring trap card.

He smiled slightly and said, "Preparation is key."

"Summon—[Martial God-Wa]!"

A golden light flashed, and a warrior like lava descended, his whole body radiating golden light and heat, possessing extremely high spirituality.

"Imperial Weapon - Bee, which is banished from the Graveyard, is activated, destroying your face-down card in slot 3!"

A worm-like, fluorescent monster rushed up to the blue team.

Nanyang Ling frowned and continued the chain: "Open the cover card - [Crystal Mechanism Entry]".

When he was young, Ji Ge was a pilot.

"Special Summon 'Matrix Topaz' from your hand and 'Central Dark Crystal' from your Graveyard!"

"Bam—"

【Martial Artifact - Bee】 missed its target.

"Hmm..." Kondo Saburo's eyes darted around, and he declared, "Advance to Battle Rank!"

"[Martial God - Japan] Attack [Matrix Yellow Crystal]!"

"Want to be beautiful? Activate the effect of [Matrix Topaz]!" Nanyang Ling said, "Special Summon [Lemon Crystal Dragon] from the Graveyard, and use it to level up two targets!"

"To pave the way for evolution!"

Synchro Summon!

"Level 7, [Super Heavy Ninja Shinobu - A·C]!"

Overweight Ninja Shinobu - A·C

Another mechanical powerhouse has appeared. The [Overweight] series has a unique feature: it can attack in a defensive stance, so it is not afraid of the opponent's [Holy Shield] that is revealed.

Kondo Saburo paused for a moment and then said, "[War God - Japan] Attack [Central Black Crystal]!"

"At this very moment, activate the [Central Black Crystal] effect!" Nanyang Ling waved her hand and said, "Special Summon the banished [Amethyst Dragon], then adjust the star level of both!"

Synchro Summon!

"The world's toughest shield!"

"Level 6, [Armored Skeleton]!"

A pale gold barrier enveloped the blue team, their glossy black armor exuding a sense of security.

"【Armored Skeleton】Effect: If this card is Synchro Summoned, this effect is activated. This card cannot be destroyed by battle/effect this turn, and all damage you take is reduced to zero."

"Accelerated Synchro!" Jules raised an eyebrow and smiled. "Nanyang Ling used Accelerated Synchro twice during the opponent's turn!"

"You've practiced!"

"That's pretty strong." Mi Tu wiped his forehead and sighed, "A single [Martial God - Japan] won't be able to withstand it next round."

Kondo Saburo pondered for a moment and said, "Cover two cards, end the turn."

"The final stage."

"[War God - Wa] effect: Search for [Bird Ship] and discard [Murakumo] from your hand!"

T3回合结束：1前4后3手，LP：3800。

"My turn, draw a card!" Nanyang Ling glanced at her newbie cards and then stared intently at the opponent's fourth queen.

"Preparation, main point."

He pressed [Card Check] for a short test.

The two cards on the right are [Holy Rebellion] and [Activation]. If nothing unexpected happens, one of the two cards on the left is [Holy Rebellion], which was obtained by [Jin Qianhu] in turn 1.

There is also an unknown face card.

He's now so wary of things that he's been bitten once, he's afraid of anything strange that might explode out again.

If it explodes and triggers a [Start-up], it's fine; [Ghost Movement] can still hold its ground. But if it explodes and triggers a [Provoke], then things will get really messed up. But if it doesn't explode, the deterrent effect from the back row is huge.

Time passes little by little.

The one-minute check period is over.

"Activate the area spell - [Crystal Array - Potential]!"

The designer got drunk and forgot to add the field.

After much deliberation, Nanyang Ling played the card.
