Let's play cards! In a different world of swords and magic

Spitting out dense spider silk, the Earthbound God released the [Trap Devourer] on the field and aimed it at You Ling's field.

You Ling: "Oh no, the Stardust Dragon is going to be taken away by the bull again... Huh? Why did I say again?"

Krista: “Is it my fault?”

However, contrary to their expectations, the monster that was densely entangled by the God-Binding Spider Silk was not the [Stardust Dragon] on the field.

"Through the effect of [Earthbound God Uru], I gain control of your [Leader] on the field!"

The Dark Duelist's real target turned out to be the [Pacesetter] that Krista originally summoned to increase the attack of the Synchro Monster.

"Then Normal Summon a Level 4 Earthbound High Priest! And use it to Synchro-Tune with a Level 4 Tuner Monster, Frontrunner!"

"Synchronous? I see!"

Since it is a mounted duel, it is not surprising that the Dark Duelist would use Synchro Summoning.

In addition, the effect of changing control of [Earthbound God Uru] can only last for 1 round.

Instead of choosing to temporarily give up [Stardust Dragon], it is better to choose to control and adjust the monster [Forerunner] to synchronize, which can effectively weaken the opponent's strength and increase your own combat effectiveness.

The key issue now is... the Synchro Summoning performed by the Dark Duelist.

4★+4★=8★!

Krista said: "What is this, an unreasonable feeling of oppression!"

A total of 8 Synchro Summoned Stars gathered above the Dark Duelist's head.

Although it was at the same 8-star synchronization as the Stardust Dragon, the terrifying power it unleashed at that moment was enough to completely crush it.

The combat power is not at the same level at all.

With the synchronization light that shook even the sky above, the phantom dragon synchronization monster, whose size was comparable to that of an earthbound god, materialized and roared, showing the appearance of a ghost.

"The synchronization of the phantom dragon, with the strongest power of the ghost, crush everything! Be angry - [Dragon Ghost of Heavenly Might]!"

[Heavenly Powerful Dragon Ghost ★★★★★★★★ (8 stars) Dark] [Phantom Dragon/Synchronize/Effect ATK: 3000 DEF: 0]

[Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner monsters]

A phantom dragon synchro monster with an attack power of 3000 points, but with a human body and a demonic appearance.

"This is the true wrath of synchronization! The power that symbolizes destruction and the end is not something that a mere Stardust Dragon can compare to! Battle——!"

After the Synchro Summon is completed, immediately declare to enter the Battle Phase of this round.

The [Ghost of the Dragon of Heaven's Might] in the Dark Duelist field clenched his strong arms into fists, emitting an angry ghostly aura, and approached the Stardust Dragon step by step.

“Smash this stardust of hope together with me! — 『Dragon Demon God Crushing Fist』”

Roaring, he punched the Stardust Dragon hard. The Stardust with a defense of 2000 points had no resistance to the dragon's fist with an attack of 3000 points.

【Stardust Dragon】Destruction

Stardust: "(￣ε(＃￣)☆It hurts!"

Being smashed and knocked away by the Dragon Ghost God's punch, You Ling could hear the wailing of Star Dust Girl who was beaten to a pulp.

"If stardust represents the will of mankind to survive, then at this moment, even this stardust will be used for destruction!" The Dark Duelist raised his arms and declared: "The effect of the Synchro Monster [Heavenly Power Dragon Demon] is activated!"

[Once per turn, activate this card when a monster with an attack effect that destroys it is sent to the Graveyard. This card gains an attack equal to the original attack of the destroyed monster. During this Battle Phase, this card can attack a monster only once.]

The anger smashed the Stardust Dragon's fist and wrapped the remaining stardust power around the sturdy ghost god's arm.

[Heavenly Dragon Demon God ATK: 3000 → 5500]

Not only does its attack power surge to 5500 points after defeating the Stardust Dragon, it can even continue to deliver a stronger second punch to the monster.

Fortunately, there are no monsters on You Ling and Krista's field for Dragon Demon to continue attacking.

Of course, when you are thankful that there are no monsters on the field, there is no doubt that the situation has fallen into an absolute disadvantage.

"A direct attack from the Earthbound God Uru! This time, you won't be able to resist!"

The giant spider Earthbound God raised its sharp spider legs again and trampled on You Ling and Krista's D wheels respectively.

Yurei & Krista LP: 4000 → 1000

After taking 3000 points of direct attack damage head-on, Christa, who had been riding in the lead, was finally forced to slow down due to the real impact, allowing the Dark Duelist to overtake her.

"I'm sorry, You Ling, I was beaten back."

The speed of the D wheel turned into a side-by-side riding state with You Ling, and Christa looked embarrassed.

"You've done very well, Krista." You Ling looked at Krista beside him and praised and encouraged her: "In the team duels I've fought, you're already in the top five!"

"I can't believe I'm not even in the top three!" The girl didn't seem happy about receiving the encouragement.

The people who have teamed up with You Ling include Kevin, Aisha, Yilin, Kema... plus Krista now, there are exactly five people.

Who of these five people is more reliable? Different duels require different analysis, and it is difficult for You Ling to judge. Let's just award the top five titles.

"But riding duels are different. In a team riding duel, Christa, you are the most reliable!"

"I understand, I understand, yes, yes, you have only ever fought a team riding duel with me, right?"

This woman is not as easy to fool as Aixia. It can be said that she sees through You Ling very clearly.

"However, how can I swallow my anger after being beaten?" Krista turned around and looked at the leading dark duelist in front of her: "The stardust of hope and my father's memory are not so easy to be shattered!"

"My turn is over."

At the same time, the dark duelist whose battle phase ended directly announced the end of his round.

"That's the momentum, Krista! Let the other side see the power of the gathered stardust!"

At the end of the Dark Duelist's turn, Yu Zero flips up the backfield cover card.

"——Activate the Trap Card [Miracle Afterglow]! Revive the Stardust Dragon that was destroyed in battle this turn on my field!"

The last rays of hope shine into the burning flaming track of the Riding Duel, guiding the reappearance of the Stardust.

[Stardust Dragon ATK: 2500]

The Stardust Dragon, which is Special Summoned in Attack Mode instead of Defense Mode, represents Yu Ling's determination to break through head-on with Stardust.

"My turn, draw a card!"

Riding alternately, Christa galloped side by side with Yurei and drew the card to start the turn.

Yu Ling & Krista SPC: 4 → 5

Dark Duelist SPC: 4→5

The high-speed indicator has exceeded 4 points, and facing the remaining 500 health points of the Dark Duelist, this is the kill line.

As long as Krista draws a high-speed magic card this turn.

"This guy, isn't he panicking at all?" You Ling asked cautiously.

Although he could only see the opponent's back after being overtaken, the Dark Duelist did not react at all when faced with the possibility that Krista would kill him with the effect of [High Speed ​​World 2].

Glancing at the cards, the card drawn this round, which is also the only card left in Christa's hand, is a trap card, not a high-speed magic that can provide a kill at a critical moment.

"As expected, we still have to break through head-on, You Ling."

"Then, call the monster back again!"

Yurei & Krista: "Drill that breaks through the Earthbound God! Special Summon from the Banished Area - [Drill Warrior]!"

A cool comeback at a critical moment. In the zeroth turn, with the help of the Drill Warrior that was banished by its own effect, it was Special Summoned again during Christa's Standby Phase.

[Drill Warrior ATK: 2400]

"And after [Drill Warrior] returns, I can choose 1 monster in the Graveyard to add to my hand, and I recycle the Adjustment Monster [Front Runner]!"

The return of the Drill Warrior means that even if Krista doesn't draw a high-speed magic card, 500 health points is still the kill line.

Christa declared at a gallop, "The effect of Drill Warrior is activated! This card's attack power is halved, and it can directly attack the opponent's player during this turn!"

"I've been waiting for this effect from you!" The Dark Duelist riding in front of him pointed to the Synchro Monster on his field with his backhand: "Activate the effect of [Dragon of Heaven's Might]!"

[Once per turn, you can only activate this effect when your opponent activates a monster's effect. Exclude that monster.]

“——『Heavenly Power Reversal Wave』!”

The roars from the mighty gods and demons and the huge energy directly shattered the space of the riding track, and once again expelled the [Drill Warrior] who had just returned and sent him to another dimension.

And this time, he was eliminated by the opponent's effect, so he probably won't have a chance to come back.

"I thought I'd use the same method to attack you, so I said you were too naive! Don't underestimate this riding duel where you're risking everything!"

"What an unreasonable Synchro Monster." Krista couldn't help but sigh.

As an 8-star Synchro Monster, it not only has the combo effect of absorbing the opponent's attack power, but also has the counter effect of eliminating monsters. It is simply an all-round player with both offensive and defensive capabilities.

No wonder this card's demonic pressure when it Synchro debuts far exceeds that of Stardust Dragon.

"But after all, we are still better!"

He first tactically healed Krista on the opposite side, and then his eyes unconsciously glanced at You Ling beside him.

"Let the other side see our Stardust's trump card, You Ling!"

"Well, go ahead, Krista!"

The exclusion effect of the Dragon Ghost of Heaven's Might can only be activated once per round, which means that the following effects can be activated at will.

"I Normal Summon 4-Star Tuning [Front Runner] in attack form!"

[Leader ATK: 1100]

Christa is the first to summon the monster that was just retrieved from the Graveyard this turn.

Then, as a cooperation, You Ling also uncovered the cards covered during his turn.

"——Activate the Continuous Trap Card [Enhanced Resurrection]!"

[Strengthened Resurrection Continuous Trap Card Effect: This card can be activated by targeting 1 Level 4 or lower monster in your Graveyard. Special Summon that monster. Increase the Level of that monster by 1 point, and increase its ATK and DEF by 100. This card is destroyed when that monster is destroyed.]

"Use [Enhanced Resurrection] to revive [Female Ninja Yae] in the cemetery!"

This is the first turn of the Riding Duel, and Christa discarded a monster from her hand in order to Special Summon [Quick Attack Synchro].

[Female Ninja Yae LV3→LV4ATK: 1100→1200]

Strengthen the resurrection summon, the female ninja monster with an extremely sexy body, the level is increased from 3 stars to 4 stars.

The 4-star Tuner monsters and the 4-star non-Tuner monsters make up the most critical 8 Synchro Stars on Christa's field.

"Use [Top Runner] to synchronize with [Female Ninja Yae]! Let the Flash of Purification and Destruction shine together with the Stardust Dragon!"

4★+4★=8★!

"A ray of light that cuts through the sea of ​​stars! Let the pulse of the soul roar in the world! Synchro Summon - [Flash Dragon Stardust]!!"

Another Stardust Dragon takes flight from the radiance of the 8-star Synchro Summon.

[Shining Dragon Stardust ★★★★★★★★ (8 stars) Light] [Dragon Family/Synchronize/Effect ATK: 2500 DEF: 2000]

In the previous riding duel, the battle was so fierce that the Stardust Dragon accelerated to the point where the control transfer could hardly keep up with the operations of both sides.

And now, facing the crisis of world destruction, Stardust Dragon and Shining Dragon Stardust are fighting side by side for the first time.

Krista: "Whether it's a dragon ghost god or an earthbound god!"

You Ling: "Let's use this second level of shining stardust to surpass it!"

Chapter 349: Stardust Combo that Changes the Future

"Two Stardust Dragons?"

Looking at the double stardust shining in the sky, two stardust dragons that looked almost identical, the Dark Duelist, whose half face had been destroyed by the explosion of the magic crystal, looked slightly shaken.

"I see. The existence of these two Stardust Dragons is your capital for purifying the magic crystal mine veins."

It is indeed difficult to do it with a single Stardust Dragon, but if there are two Stardust Dragons together, the probability of successful purification is very high.

But regardless of whether the final purification is successful or not, the views held by the Dark Duelist remain unchanged.

"If we don't cut off this chain of destruction, this ending will just repeat itself endlessly! Don't you understand yet?"

"I understand. Of course we understand what you said! But..." You Ling roared back, "You cowards who don't have the courage to face the future, just get out of my way!"

"You said I don't have the courage to face the future?"
