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

Page 487

This was a consensus among everyone present.

It's almost impossible to pass this test with just one axis; we have to find a way to develop hybrid axes and have them work together.

"Hmph!" A burly man with muscles snorted and said disdainfully to Starki, "Two cards to clear the back row is indeed good, but it's a pity that it takes up a Normal Summon."

Upon hearing this, Starch became furious and retorted, "What tricks do you have up your sleeve this time?"

"Watch this!" The burly man, Barça, stepped forward and opened the Duel Disk.

[Whether to select cards]

"Yes," Barcelona replied in a deep voice.

[Initial card is correct]

Please be prepared.

【3...】

【2...】

【1! 】

[Challenge Begins]

The moment the words left his mouth, Barcelona immediately revealed a card in his hand, saying, "If the opponent has more monsters on their field than I do, I can Special Summon [Dinosaur Wrestler Pankrasin Ceratops]!"

Pankrasin Ceratops, the Dinosaur Wrestler

With a deep roar, the Pankrasian Horned Dragon, clad in metallic armor, trembled with every step. It held its head high, adorned with a majestic crest of horns.

"Hmph—" Barcelona also raised their heads high, a hint of arrogance flashing in their eyes.

"Release [Pankrasin Ceratopsian] and activate its effect!"

"Disobeying the royal decree!"

[Pankrasin Horned Dragon] Charges with a single horn, shattering [Decree].

Amid a chorus of exclamations.

Barcelona grinned with satisfaction and played another card: "Activate the Spell Card - Harpy's Feather Duster!"

"Destroy all of the opponent's spell traps!"

Another familiar gust of wind swept by, accompanied by the fluttering of feathers, and with a few loud bangs, the entire backfield was destroyed.

"Beautiful!" The cheers grew even louder.

The other king showed no unusual behavior, still wearing a faint smile on his face.

Barcelona looked around and embraced everyone, then turned their faces and clicked "surrender".

Challenge failed

The AI referee quickly announced the results.

"Huh?!" The crowd was immediately disappointed. "Was there no further action?"

"What exactly did you go up there for?" Stark asked angrily. "You surrendered after just two taps? Don't you feel ashamed?"

"Hmph!" Barcelona sneered, "I've proven that two cards can clear the backcourt without taking up a Normal Summon slot. Isn't that better than you?"

"I have a clear conscience!"

“You—” Stark stared at him with wide eyes.

"I've never seen anyone so shameless."

Barcelona remained unconvinced, looking around again: "I've already figured out how to clear the backfield without relying on call-ups."

"If anyone has the skills to deal 150,000 damage with four cards, feel free to contact me and let's collaborate."

Unlike Stark, who kept things to himself, he bluntly voiced the sentiments of many people.

If we could cooperate, we could take down a king.

Even if you only release one N card, it's enough to brag about for a lifetime.

"Laozi participated in the construction that defeated the king!"

When that impenetrable veil was finally torn away, countless people began to stir with excitement.

"I, the [Holy Sound Priestess], can burn blood indefinitely as long as there are offerings..."

"I, the [Cartoon Cannon Soldier], can also..."

"Hey bro... what deck are you using?"

The crowd looked around, discussing amongst themselves.

Zhuska approached Ilan, took out her deck, and said, "Miss Ilan, I only brought [Dragon Maid]. What are your thoughts?"

Yi Lan shook her head and turned to Luo Bai: "You just said you had two ideas, tell me what you're missing."

"Hmm—" Luo Bai pondered for a moment, trying to find the right words.

There are generally three approaches to defeating a boss with tens of thousands of HP.

"One possibility is an endless blood-burning cycle, but three minutes is definitely not enough, so let's rule that out for now."

"The second type is based on high-damage attacks or attacks based on health points, like this one—"

As he spoke, he took out a card.

[The Executioner Who Ends with Telekinesis]

"【Executioner】can increase attack power based on the difference in base scores between the two sides, but the problem is that both sides currently have 150,000 points."

"For the single [Executioner], we need to find a way to reduce his health to three or four thousand."

"How about sending out two [Executioners]?" Yi Lan asked after hearing this.

“Uh—” Luo Bai’s expression was a little awkward. “I only brought one.”

Who would apply for two of these cards?!

"Hmm..." Yi Lan fell into deep thought, "The problem now is figuring out how to suppress my blood pressure..."

"Self-harm..."

"Aren't you very familiar with me?"

She stared blankly at Luo Bai, her face serious.

"What are you saying? What are you saying!" Luo Bai exclaimed anxiously. "You're making me sound like a masochist."

"Even the [Fear Peptide] can't reduce the value from 150,000 to 3,000 or 4,000 in one round."

"We'll have to use some special methods..."

“For example?” Yi Lan raised an eyebrow.

“For example—” Luo Bai tilted his head, lost in memories, “【Hope Royal Hope I】? I think that’s the name. It can pay out 10 points.”

That's all he remembers, since it's an animated protagonist series.

Do you have any?

Ilan and Zhuska shook their heads helplessly.

"So what's your second idea?"

“The second strategy is to attack repeatedly.” Luo Bai flipped out another card and showed it off, “【Chimera Overload Dragon】increases its attack power based on the number of fusion materials, and can also attack monsters multiple times.”

"I've done a rough calculation."

"Requires at least 14 fusion materials."

"If I use their two cards to deal with it, the remaining four field cards are needed to create a 14-material [Chimera Overload Dragon], which is a bit difficult with my current card pool..."

"We're still missing two or three more machine-type monsters..."

"Unfortunately... we both have Dragon decks," Zhuska said dejectedly.

Just when the three were at their wits' end.

Looking at them from afar, Leshard tilted his head slightly, whispered something to Fenrir the wolf beside him, and gave him a deck.

Fenrir the wolf put down his axe upon hearing the sound.

The Duel Disk seemed to grow slowly from his hand, like his own flesh and blood.

He stepped into the dueling arena.

A scorching heat spread out.

"Hmm?" Luo Bai raised an eyebrow slightly, while Yi Lan's gaze turned cold.

[Whether to select cards]

“Yes,” Fenrir the wolf replied in a menacing voice.
