Yu-Gi-Oh! Heroes

"First... I activate the Field Spell Card [Relative Terrain] from my hand!"

After placing a card into the side area of ​​the Duel Disk, Tubein immediately began to explain: "According to the effect of this card, when the life points of both parties decrease, the attack power of the monsters on each field will also decrease by the corresponding value."

As the magic card was activated, the entire classroom scene, centered at Tubain's feet, was suddenly replaced by the brilliant galaxy in outer space.

This feeling of being in outer space for a moment gave rise to an unknown sense of novelty in everyone's hearts instinctively.

“Is this the world of logic that Dr. Tubein is talking about?”

Experiencing the wonderful feeling of being in space, Misawa Daichi couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "In this environment full of theories, those things that rely on luck will surely not be able to play their role, right?"

"...I activate the Spell Card [Pot of Greed] and draw two cards from my deck."

"Next, I place a monster in face-down Defense Position. This turn ends."

Tubein did not choose to deploy at this time, but after drawing the card, he chose to cover one of his hand cards.

After that, he readily ended his turn and handed the initiative to Youxing.

"Huh? That's it? It's over?"

Originally, Youxing thought that Tubain, who had taken the initiative, would explode in front of his eyes, and through a series of storytelling operations, he would pull out one or a bunch of extremely powerful monsters.

but……

A Field Magic Card of unknown meaning and a face-down monster...that's it?

Excuse me? ? ?

"I don't know what you're up to, but next... it's my turn to perform!"

Pointing at Tubain who was smiling but saying nothing, Yusei placed his finger on his deck and drew a card: "My turn, draw a card!"

"Oh? Is it coming?" Looking at the card he just drew, Yusei curled his lips and directly inserted it into the backfield of the duel disk: "Activate the magic card [Hero Arrival]! Pay half of my life points and Special Summon a 4-star or lower [Elemental Hero] monster from the deck!"

Extending his arms forward, Yusei shouted, "...Come on, [Elemental Hero: Shadow Mist Girl] (Attack Power: 1000)!"

(Youxing LP: 4000 → 2000)

The effect of [Hero's Arrival] was successfully activated, but it did not turn into the much-loved "Gray Beauty's Arrival".

At the cost of half his life value, Yusei Special Summoned Shadow Mist Lady from his deck to his own field.

As a dark mist appeared in front of Youxing, the female hero, with one hand on her waist, also walked gracefully to his field.

"At this moment, because your health points are decreasing, the effect of the field magic card [Relative Terrain] will also be activated." Pointing at the Shadow Mist Girl on the wandering star field, Tubein continued: "[Elemental Hero Shadow Mist Girl]'s attack power will decrease by 2000 points and become 0!"

([Elemental Hero: Shadow Mist Lady] Attack Power: 1000 → 0)

"Then I will also activate the effect of Shadow Mist Girl at this time!"

"…When this card is Special Summoned, I can add a [Change] Quick-Play Spell Card from my Deck to my Hand! I choose to search for [Masquerade Change]!"

Yusei's expression did not change even though Shadow Mist Girl's attack power decreased.

He reached out to the deck, then added the half-popped-out card to his hand.

"Next, I summon [Elemental Hero: Solid Man] from my hand in Attack Position, and activate its effect to Special Summon [Elemental Hero: Sky Man] from my hand!"

When Solid Summon is successful, you can Special Summon a Level 4 or lower [Hero] monster from your hand.

Relying on his effect, Yusei used up his chance to summon the regular summon this turn and Special Summoned Skyman from his hand to the field.

"When this card is Normal Summoned or Special Summoned, I can search for a Hero monster in my Deck, or select and destroy a number of Spell or Trap Cards other than this card, equal to the number of Hero monsters on the field!"

"... Hoho? A monster with a double effect?" Touching his stubble, Tubein said jokingly, "So, Yusei-kun, are you planning to destroy my Field Magic Card?"

"No, I choose to activate the search effect."

After thinking for a moment, he looked at Yusei on Tubain's field and made his own decision: "According to the effect of [Elemental Hero·Skyman], I will add [Destiny Hero·Blood Demon-D] from the deck to my hand!"

"…Hero of Destiny? Blood Demon-D?!"

Seeing Yuxing's unconventional actions, Tubain, whom Yuxing had dueled before, and Yuki Judai, who was watching behind Yuxing, were all stunned.

Normally, shouldn't it be the time to search for the lonesome person, then demolish the bridge as soon as the river is crossed to pull out the incremental person, then special summon the bionic man, then search for the fusion, and start to spread out the field in a mighty manner?

What is Youxing planning to do?

"...It's a bit boring to always use the farmer's three-punch combination to beat people. Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, let me use another method to quickly resolve the battle!"

Tubein: "...Hmm? Another way?"

After making such a declaration, Yusei waved his hand and sent the three monsters on the Duel Disk to his own graveyard.

Then, he placed the Ultimate D that he had retrieved earlier on the Duel Board, replacing the three heroes who had left the field: "Use this card of destiny to end our fate... Descend, Ultimate D-HERO - Blood Demon-D!!!"

618 You Are Not the Only One with Hand Traps

[D-HERO·Bloo-D], or [Destiny Hero·Bloo-D], as the first Destiny Hero born, he also possesses the most powerful power.

Even on the OCG stage where demons are rampant, among the family of heroes as bright as the stars, Blood Demon-D is the only powerful monster that can completely suppress the two ultimate newborns, Wolong (Red-Eyes Dragon Knight) and Fengchu (Phoenix of Destruction).

Red-Eyes Dragoon cannot be destroyed by effects, nor can it be the target of effects. It has the ability to perform a three-color counter attack once every turn, and every turn it can blow up the opponent's two monsters on the field, and inflict damage equal to the attack value...

It is simple and easy to use, and the effect is powerful. Its existence itself is a nuclear bomb in the original environment.

As for destroying the Phoenix people, there is no need to talk about it.

After Red-Eyes Dragoon was locked up in the small dark room, Destruction Phoenix is ​​still active in various card decks and has become an extremely powerful plug-in.

In each turn, you can explode cards without selecting a target, and you can also reduce the attributes of the opponent's monsters on the field according to the number of hero monsters in the graveyard.

Its versatility was so great that people even joked, "Zhao! Even hero decks need to use Phoenix Man?"

In short, facing the Crouching Dragon and the Phoenix Chick whose presence is so strong, replacing them with any other hero will not achieve the same effect.

The moment Blood Demon-D appears, the blood-red light of the Red-Eyes Dragon Knight will be absorbed, and he will become a blank slate with an attack power of 3000. The Phoenix Man of Destruction will also lose the ability to spread his wings and fly, turning from a phoenix into a turkey, and standing on the same starting line as Xin Yuxia...

Under the powerful blockade of blood gravity, even as strong as they are, they can only be defeated in the end and become an equipment card that increases the attack power of [Destiny Hero·Blood Demon-D].

Of course, such a powerful card naturally has corresponding side effects.

I don't know if there is some kind of causal influence, but in the original work, once Ed summons [Destiny Hero Blood Demon-D] in a duel, no matter how much advantage Ed had before, the final result of the duel will end in Ed's defeat, without exception.

It is precisely because of this consideration that Yusei did not use the card [Destiny Hero·Blood Demon-D] too much.

After all, although the different version of Blood Demon-D in Yusei's hand is not the card that contains the light of destruction and was taken away by the murderer of Ed's father.

But as a card with the same name, there is no guarantee that he will be like a certain white-robed scumbag Lester, with the effect of attracting hatred and triggering the trap set by the opponent the moment he appears on the field.

……

"Use this card of destiny to end our fate... Descend, the ultimate D-Hero - Blood Demon-D!!!"

Leaving aside unnecessary thoughts, while facing off against Tubein, an expert in physical dueling, Yusei, on a whim, decided to try summoning this monster to verify his hypothesis.

As Youxing finished his words, the three monsters on his field were enveloped in blood-red light at the same time, then gathered together and turned into a huge red sphere.

With the red moon as the altar and blood as the throne, the ultimate hero of destiny is about to come into the world at this moment.

Under the gazes of everyone, this red sphere suddenly fell into the cosmic space formed by the field magic cards, spreading a blood-red lake between the wandering stars' Tubains.

From the lake, the blood-colored demon spread his wings and slowly emerged, carrying an irresistible might...

Yusei: “…Hmm???”

Tubein: "At the moment you perform a Special Summon, I activate the effect of [Singularity Demon] from my hand..."

Before Blood Demon D could finish his pretentious lines, his upper body had just emerged from the blood lake, and Tubein waved his hand and took out a monster card, showing it to Yousei on the opposite side.

"……Nani?"

Holy shit, there really is a trap? And it's a hand trap that was set off at this time!

Seeing that Tubain on the opposite side took out a strange hand trap that he didn't recognize at this time, Youxing's face couldn't help but be stunned. The [Destiny Hero Blood Demon-D] that had just been slapped on the duel disk also began to show a layer of flickering light on the surface.

"…The effect of [Singularity Demon] is that when your opponent Special Summon a monster, you can send this card and a Magic Card from your hand to the Graveyard to negate the summon of that monster and destroy it!"

Waving his single extended finger with a smug look on his face, Tubain's old face revealed a "planned" smile: "Yousei boy, I knew... you would Special Summon during your turn, so I was waiting for the moment when you summoned a powerful monster. Although I don't know what the so-called Ultimate D - [Destiny Hero Blood Demon-D] has, but... leave here!"

"???"

Yusei opened his mouth subconsciously, and listening to the voice echoing in his ears, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "This effect... is it the monster version of [God's Notice]?!"

[Singularity Demon], which can activate its effect during the opponent's turn, is a two-speed effect in itself, not the three-speed effect of God Old Man, so it can be chained by other two-speed effects.

However, the [Singularity Demon] is ineffective and destroys the summoning itself.

At this moment, [Destiny Hero Bloodthirster-D] has not been summoned to Yusei's field, so even if Yusei has the second-speed quick-attack magic card [Masked Transformation] in his hand, he cannot transform Bloodthirster-D into Friend Man in this situation, thus avoiding the effect of this hand pit.

As Tubein sent the [Singularity Demon] and a magic card in his hand to the graveyard, Blood Devil-D, who had not yet appeared, paused, then sank back into the blood-colored lake with a black line, and finally disappeared together with the blood lake that filled the field...

[Destiny Hero Bloodfiend-D] cannot be Normal Summoned. His appearance condition is that he can only be Special Summoned to the field by releasing three monsters on his field.

Even if they are sent to the cemetery, neither party can revive them through the effect of [Resurrection of the Dead].

In other words, Yusei spent three cards to summon Loneliness...

"Ambush a card...end of turn."

Twitching his lips and looking at the empty scene on his field, Youxing couldn't help but raise a middle finger to Tubein in his heart.

In the situation just now, even if Yusei did not summon Blooddemon-D and instead pulled out other monsters, he would face the same result. Because he could not avoid the effect of [Singularity Demon], he could only allow their summoning to be invalidated and destroyed.

Therefore, this is not due to [Destiny Hero Blood Demon-D]. It is just a coincidence and cannot verify the so-called defeat curse.

It seems that if you want to verify the law of cause and effect of [Destiny Hero Blood Demon-D], you still have to wait for the next opportunity.

"Hohoho~ My turn, draw a card!"

Stroking his beard proudly, Tubain reached out and pulled out a new card from the deck.

After that, he placed one of his cards on the backcourt, then took out another card and inserted it into the backcourt of the Duel Disk to activate it: "First, I ambush a card, and then activate the Continuous Magic Card [Schrödinger's Mischievous Cat] from my hand."

On the magic card, there is a cat-man wearing a white suit performing magic.

After activating this card, Tubain reached out again and turned over the monster cards covering the field: "Yousei, you must be very sad to have wasted so many cards last turn. So, let me help you replenish your hand! It just so happens that I also need to replenish my hand."

Yusei: "Hmm? Refill your hand... Could this covered monster be..."

Everyone: "...Huh? What's going on?"

It was impossible to understand Tubain's thoughts for a moment, and Yuki Judai and Kenzan, who were watching the battle, had big question marks on their heads.

And Misawa Daichi seemed to be aware of something and paid more attention to the situation on the field.

"I Flip Summon the face-down monster... At this moment, the effect of Flip Monster [Transformer Pot] (Attack: 700) will also be activated! When this card is Flip Summoned, the person with cards in hand discards all cards in his or her hand, then draws five cards from his or her deck."

The monster that Tubain ambushed on the field was a reverse monster with a special effect, [Transformation Pot].

As a reverse monster, the moment it is attacked, its reverse effect will be triggered regardless of friend or foe.

With its appearance, the few cards in Tubain and Yusei's hand will also be sent to the graveyard for a round of cleansing.

"Tsk... my chestnut ball."

Looking at the [Spherical Chestnut Ball] in his hand that had the effect of blocking attacks, Yusei paused and could only send it and the other cards in his hand to the graveyard. Then, together with Tubein, who also discarded all the cards in his hand, he drew five new cards from the deck.

Although the hand pit is gone, a new set of hand cards has been added.

While he was replenishing his hand, Tubein received the same gift.

Therefore, even Youxing himself couldn’t tell whether this round of operation was a profit or a loss.

"Since I drew a card outside of the Draw Phase, the effect of the Continuous Magic Card [Schrödinger's Trickster Cat] will also be activated."

Pointing to the magic cards spread out in front of him, Tubain continued, "After confirming the cards I drew, I can put them back into the deck, shuffle them, and then draw the same number of cards."

Unlike Yuki Judai who relies on luck, Tubain's way of getting key cards is through a large amount of filtering combined with various effects.

Drawing cards is an act full of chance where you don't know what the cards are before you turn them over.

With a large number of filtering effects, the probability of getting key cards will also increase, and the behavior that relies on luck will gradually move towards the logical direction.

If I don’t win once or twice, what if I try ten times?

It does not rely on so-called luck, but simply increases the number of card draws, and you can still retrieve the cards you want.

This is the theory that Tubein believes in.

"Heh, here we come."
