Hey! Let's play cards

"That's enough!" Li Ming nodded.

"Activate the effect of Red-Eyes Thunder King - Evil Devil. Once per turn, during your Main Phase, when the DEF of face-up monsters on your opponent's field is lower than the ATK of this card, destroy all of those monsters."

[Elemental Hero Storm Man, Defense 2800]

[Devil Dragon·Dark Dragon, Defense 2500]

The lightning and flames on the evil demon's body continued to surge, complement each other, and gradually mix to produce an even more powerful energy.

If this effect is activated successfully, both monsters on Zhou Ming's field will be destroyed.

Zhou Ming was not panicked at all and slowly pulled out a card.

"I activate the effect of 'Effect Veiler' from my hand. During my opponent's Main Phase, send this card from their hand to the Graveyard, and target 1 Effect Monster on your opponent's field. Negate the effects of that opponent's monster until the end of that turn."

Hand trap loli, I didn’t expect Zhou Ming also has it.

The evil demon stopped its attacks, and the flames on its body dimmed a lot.

"Is there no way out for now? I face down two cards, and the turn ends!"

[Red-Eyes Thunder King - Evil Devil, attack power 3000 → 2500]

"It's my turn, draw a card!" It was Zhou Ming's turn.

"What a great monster! It's mine now. Equip it with the spell 'Seize' and gain control of 1 opponent's monster equipped with this card. But as a price, during each of the opponent's Standby Phases, the opponent recovers 1000 HP."

Robbery, one of the forbidden cards, directly plunders the control of a monster on the opponent's field. There is no 1-turn limit, which is really terrifying.

As for the negative effect of restoring 1000 health points, that’s nothing!

A big hand flew out and came straight to Li Ming's duel disk. With a quick wave, before Li Ming could react, it successfully took away the "True Red-Eyes Fierce Thunder Emperor - Evil Demon".

After Zhou Ming received the card, he placed it on his duel disk.

[Red-Eyes Thunder King - Evil Devil, Attack Power 2500]

"Damn it!" Li Ming had never met such a duelist before. The opponent's field was full of his monsters.

Chapter 171: Changes in the Battle Situation

However, Li Ming was not completely helpless. You Xin had mentioned this underworld tactic to him before.

"I open my Gefu card, and the Trap Card 'Sand Tornado' targets 1 Magic or Trap Card on your opponent's field, and destroy that card.

After that, you can set 1 Spell or Trap Card from your hand.

Whether it is the Dark Doll, the "Mask of Last Words", or the "Robbery", they all take the form of becoming the opponent's monster equipment card to seize control of the opponent's monster.

Since they are in the form of Equipment Cards, that means they themselves are Magic/Trap Cards and can be destroyed by the effect of "Sand Tornado".

A tornado filled with sand and wind blew towards Zhou Ming's site.

The equipment card that Li Ming chose to destroy was "Dark Doll Nicolophia".

Given the current situation, Li Ming can only do this.

If the "Mask of Last Words" is destroyed and control of the "Devil Dragon - Dark Dragon" is regained, Zhou Ming will use the effect of "Red-Eyes Thunder Emperor - Evil Demon" to destroy the Dark Dragon.

If Li Ming destroys the "robbery" and takes back the control of the "Red-Eyes Thunder King - Evil Demon", Zhou Ming will use the "Demon Dragon - Dark Dragon" to fight and destroy the evil demon, and finally use Storm Man to give Li Ming the final blow.

With this in mind, Li Ming had no choice but to take back control of "Elemental Hero Stormman".

Stormman has resistance against battle damage, and his defense is 2800 points, which cannot be destroyed by evil demons.

The sandstorm successfully destroyed the dark puppet, Storm Man's eyes became clear, and he spread his wings and flew back to Li Ming's place.

"Interesting! But that's not enough. When the equipped monster fights an opponent's monster with the magic spell 'Rainbow Cloth', the effect of that opponent's monster will be negated only during the battle phase."

The colorful rainbow clothes covered the surface of the demon dragon, bringing a touch of disharmony to this dragon filled with black flames.

"No...that's not the case!" Li Ming didn't expect that Zhou Ming actually had a card to deal with it.

"Don't forget! This is my deck. I naturally know its shortcomings and how to make up for them." Zhou Ming said that he saw through everything.

"If you think that Gaifuka in the backcourt can protect you, you are very wrong."

Although the situation is in Zhou Ming's favor, he will not let go of any flaws.

"Entering the battle phase, at this moment, I activate the quick attack magic 'Demon Sealing Arrow', which can only be activated when the battle phase of myself or the opponent begins.

After activating this card, until the end of this turn, both players cannot activate the effects of Spell or Trap Cards.

And your opponent cannot activate the effects of Spells, Traps, or Monsters in response to this card."

Countless arrows shot out from the cards, blocking all of Li Ming's Gaifuka in the backcourt.

Although the Dark Dragon has the effect that magic, traps, and monster effects cannot be activated when attacking, Zhou Ming still feels uneasy.

"Battle! 'Devil Dragon·Dark Dragon' attacks 'Elemental Hero·Storm Man', Meteor Flame Bomb!!!"

The Dark Dragon reluctantly opened its mouth again, and a black flame bomb, with a scorching temperature, whizzed through the air and away.

Under the rainbow light of the Dark Dragon, Stormman was completely unable to mobilize his own strength and could only watch the fire bombs hit his chest.

Li Ming gritted his teeth and held on, the familiar pain came again!

【Li Ming, LP2500→1200】

Zhou Ming felt that he had won the game, and said in a very sly tone, "Are you ready for your demon to give you the final blow?"

Li Ming stood straight, the fighting spirit in his eyes still lingering, "Is this duel not over yet?"

"Oh - really? Then just die!" Zhou Ming waved his hand, and the evil demon twisted its stiff body. Fire and lightning, two forces raged on the field.

Although the evil demon was unwilling to attack Li Ming, due to the restrictions of the duel rules, the fire and lightning still merged into a storm and rushed towards Li Ming.

"Haha! This is the end of being my enemy. Prepare to be destroyed by the darkness!" Zhou Ming's mouth curled up slightly. Every time he saw the monster devouring its master, he would feel a deep sense of satisfaction in his heart.

The destructive storm ended and gradually subsided. Li Ming's figure gradually appeared in the smoke and dust.

【Li Ming, LP1200】

“How could it be???” Zhou Ming looked at Li Ming in disbelief.

When the smoke and dust cleared, Li Ming looked at himself and saw that he was safe and sound, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

"That was a close call! That was a close call!" Li Ming had an expression as if he had survived a disaster.

"Why? Why doesn't your health value change at all?" Zhou Ming asked loudly.

For Zhou Ming, every detail was taken into consideration. There was no monster in Li Ming's venue that could stop the attack of the evil demon.

And according to the effect of "Demon Sealing Arrow", Li Ming cannot activate magic or traps during the battle phase.

Zhou Ming also noticed that Li Ming's Gefuka in the backcourt did not change at all and was still quietly covering it there.

A card popped out from Li Ming's graveyard.

"The effect of 'Kite Robot' in the Graveyard allows you to discard this card from your hand, and the battle damage to the player's direct attack can only be reduced to 1 once."

Kite Robot, a monster card that has not been OCGized, has a good sword-blocking effect. When this card exists in the graveyard, it can be excluded and the battle damage of the opponent's direct attack can be reduced to 0 again.

Li Ming, who has been with You Xin for a long time, has gradually become more cautious and only tells half of the effect of a card.

Perhaps, at some point, this will become Li Ming's life-saving method.

"Damn monster!" Zhou Ming's eyes were wide open, and he was angry that his plan had failed.

"I cover a card, and the turn ends!" Zhou Ming gritted his teeth and ended his turn.

"Then it's my turn, draw a card!" Li Ming drew a card, and the direction of the duel began to change at this moment.

According to the negative effect of "robbery", Li Ming recovered 1000 health points.

【Li Ming, LP1200→2200】

"Magic Card 'Angel's Charity', draw three cards from your deck and discard two."

After changing the cards, Li Ming played another card.

"The magic card 'Pot of Greed' targets five cards in the graveyard, adds them to the deck and shuffles them, then draws two cards."

Five monster cards pop out and return to the deck to be shuffled.

After Li Ming drew out two cards, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Here it comes! I activate the quick-attack magic 'Double Cyclone', targeting 1 Magic/Trap Card on my side of the field and 1 Magic/Trap Card on the opponent's side of the field, destroying those cards."

Li Ming chooses the equipment card "Black Steel Dragon" on his own field and destroys it together with the "Mask of Last Words" on the opponent's field.

A yellow whirlwind first rolled up the "Black Steel Dragon" and then turned into a red whirlwind and headed towards Zhou Ming.

"Same trick? It won't work this time! I open the Gefu card and counter the trap 'Bribe of the Demon Palace'. When the opponent activates a Spell or Trap Card, that activation is negated and destroyed, and the opponent draws 1 card from their deck."

The red whirlwind gradually subsided, and Li Ming drew a card based on the effect of "Bribery of the Demon Palace".

Li Ming did not show any disappointed expression, as all this was part of his plan.

"When the effect of 'Black Steel Dragon' is activated, if this card is sent from the field to the Graveyard, add 1 'Red-Eyes' card from your deck to your hand."

"I choose to add 'Legendary Black Stone' to my hand."

The deck was shuffled, and a card popped out. Li Ming took it.

"I open the Gefu Card, the Trap Card 'Breakthrough Skill', and target 1 Effect Monster on your opponent's field. The effect of that opponent's monster is negated until the end of the turn."

The monster chosen by Li Ming is "Devil Dragon·Dark Dragon".

Electric light surged on the demon dragon's body, and the black flames surging in its body gradually stopped.

"I activate the Spell Card 'Reincarnation of the Dead', discard a card, target a monster in the Graveyard, and add that card to my hand."

Li Ming discards a card and adds "Elemental Hero Bubble Man" from the graveyard to his hand.

"I Normal Summon Elemental Hero Bubble Man"

Dressed in blue armor, the elemental hero who brings hope makes a brilliant appearance surrounded by endless bubbles!

[Elemental Hero Bubble Man, Attack Power 800]

"Bubble Man? Are you planning to rely on such a weak monster?" Zhou Ming, who was extremely angry at this time, snorted coldly and said disdainfully.

Li Ming immediately retorted, "Don't underestimate every hero, they are all indispensable."
