Chapter 104: Fatal Four-Hit Combo (2/2)
-----2 hapters in 1-----
"Summon in Defense Position——[Elemental HERO Bubbleman] !"[Elemental HERO Bubbleman ★★★★ WATER][Warrior-Type/Effect ATK: 800 DEF: 1200]Underneath a mask resembling Batman's, a confident smile was revealed. Amidst a flurry of light blue bubbles, Bubbleman, possessing an effect like Pot of Greed (- Strong Desire's Pot), made its debut."When I control no other cards, if Bubbleman is Normal or Special Summoned successfully, I can draw two cards from my deck."You Ling's objective was also evident: use Bubbleman to quickly cycle through cards.
The more cards drawn, the easier it is to get the most crucial [Polymerization] Magic Card for HEROes.Then, after this duel ends, You Ling planned to give Yilin some advice on deck construction.For example, although he didn't have 200 Spell Points to print a second Polymerization.But he could craft the C-rank Spell Magic [Fusion Sage] , whose effect is 「Add 1 "Polymerization" Spell Card from your Deck to your hand」, which could also be used to indirectly increase the probability of drawing the [Polymerization] Magic Card."Draw! Draw!"With the support of Bubbleman's rapid-fire effect, You Ling drew two consecutive cards, but unfortunately, the anticipated [Polymerization] Magic was not drawn into his hand.
However, he did draw a rather interesting combination card between HEROes."I set 3 cards, turn end!"Dehao Caesar said seriously: "Oh, just this level of struggle? Then you very likely won't have a next turn!""Which eye of yours saw me struggling?" You Ling couldn't help but retort."Hey hey hey, student Yilin, etiquette, pay attention to etiquette!"Sheila, the Magic Society president below the stage, quickly reminded, yet afraid her voice was too loud and would be heard by Caesar, her expression appeared exceptionally awkward.
"Mr. Dehao Caesar is royalty. Being so rude to royalty can get you into trouble.""What's it got to do with me?" You Ling replied nonchalantly, "No matter the opponent's status, in a duel, they are just someone I must defeat."The thought process of the duel-brained You Ling. Plus, You Ling, being a modern person, was inherently very insensitive to ancient class relations like nobility and royalty.
"Hahahahaha. Well said!"As a result, You Ling's attitude instead received approval from the royalty Caesar."I agree with Yilin Austin's words, regardless of status, as long as one stands on the dueling stage, there is only victory or defeat! This is also the first time someone has said such words to me in a duel, what an interesting woman!"???You Ling was full of question marks.Interesting woman?What's with this overbearing president-style development?Yilin: "First it was Duke Set's son Kevin Set, then royalty Dehao Caesar. You Ling, you truly are a deeply sinful... man.
"That's if they even know I'm a man."In that case, Yilin Austin, don't disappoint me! My turn, draw!"Dehao Caesar's arm once again violently drew a card from the deck."Activate Magic Card [Pot of Greed], I draw 2 more cards from my deck."Last turn You Ling just summoned Pot of Greed Man ( Bubbleman), and this turn Caesar activated the genuine Pot of Greed.Clearly an A-rank rarity card, yet Dehao Caesar seemed to just casually toss out a commonly seen card.Perhaps it was really as You Ling imagined; even [Sudden Mutation] could be casually lent out. The royal family, which concentrated the entire nation's power and wealth, could easily obtain even A-rank tradable cards.As the strongest pay-to-win warrior, it seemed perfectly normal for the royal family's deck to have a few Pots of Greed or something similar."Draw, draw!"As if returning You Ling's two-card draw, Dehao Caesar scanned his cards, then asked President Sheila."If Yilin Austin directly loses this duel, then what will ultimately happen to the three unawakened cards?""I think, as long as a few more duels are conducted, until the cards are fully awakened, it should be fine.""Haha, is that so."Dehao Caesar grinned, his smile suddenly becoming arrogant."Then I have nothing more to worry about, going all out! Activate Field Magic Card!"His thick arm raised the Field Magic Card high above his head; with Dehao Caesar as the center point, the changing field environment gradually covered the entire duel field.You Ling, within it, felt as if he had arrived in a different dimensional space."This is the Field Magic Card [Fusion Gate] !"
[Fusion Gate Field Magic Effect: While this card is on the field, you can Fusion Summon a Fusion Monster without using "Polymerization". If you Fusion Summon this way, banish the Fusion Materials instead of sending them to the Graveyard.][Fusion Gate], an A-rank Field Magic Card of a higher level than the [Polymerization] Magic Card, possessed the convenient effect of performing Fusion Summons an unlimited number of times.
But the side effect was also obvious: the monster materials fused by Fusion Gate are not sent to the Graveyard but are directly banished."Using the effect of [Fusion Gate], I banish the [Cyber Dragon] on my field and the [Cyber Dragon] in my hand as Fusion Materials.
Let the two Cyber Dragons perform a summon!"Caesar threw two [Cyber Dragon] cards into the Fusion Gate that materialized as a field background behind him.The Machine monsters absorbed into the gate combined with each other, giving birth to a brand new individual."The dual roar from Cyber Dragon, Fusion Summon, descend!——Cyber Twin Dragon !"
[Cyber Twin Dragon ★★★★★★★★ (8-Star) LIGHT][Machine-Type/Fusion/Effect ATK: 2800 DEF: 2100]["Cyber Dragon" + "Cyber Dragon"]It could be said to be a very simple and crude fusion method; born from the fusion of two Cyber Dragons was the two-headed Cyber Twin Dragon.Of course, the resulting combat power and effect were also even simpler and cruder."Cyber Twin Dragon can attack twice in the same turn, take this!——『Twin Cybernetic Evolution Burst』"The two Cyber Dragon heads simultaneously shot pure white light flames towards Bubbleman in Defense Position on You Ling's field.
The excessive ATK/DEF difference left no chance for resistance; Bubbleman was instantly vaporized.[Elemental HERO Bubbleman] destroyed"This way, you have no monsters on your field that can help you block attacks. Cyber Twin Dragon!——Second Strike!""Who said I have no monsters to block attacks? The will of a HERO will call upon fellow HERO companions!"After Bubbleman was destroyed, You Ling decisively flipped over the set Trap Card in his back row.
"——Activate Trap Card [Hero Signal] !"
[Hero Signal Trap Card Effect: When a monster you control is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard: Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower "Elemental HERO" monster from your hand or Deck.]Shining and projecting onto the top of the field, the "H" symbol representing the summoning of heroes called forth another HERO from Yilin's deck onto the field."I Special Summon in Defense Position——[Elemental HERO Clayman]!"
[Elemental HERO Clayman ★★★★ EARTH][Warrior-Type ATK: 800 DEF: 2000]Elemental HERO Clayman, big and hard, appeared on Yilin's field in a defensive posture with both arms blocking."A HERO with 2000 defense points, but before Cyber Twin Dragon, it's completely unqualified! Continue attacking!"The second blast of twin cybernetic evolution flames erupted, dazzling light surging forward."Completely unqualified, is it? Then let's give it some face, struggle a bit, Clayman!"You Ling flipped over the second set card."——Activate Trap Card [Clay Charge] !"
[Clay Charge Trap Card Effect: When an "Elemental HERO Clayman" you control is selected as an attack target (if the selected card is face-down Defense Position, reveal it): Destroy both the attacking monster and the selected "Elemental HERO Clayman", and inflict 800 damage to your opponent.]Abandoning defense, Clayman courageously charged towards the Cyber Twin Dragon in front with a hero's posture. Even the surging evolution flames couldn't block his path forward.
"Destroy Clayman on my field and your Cyber Twin Dragon simultaneously, then inflict 800 damage to you!"In a mutually destructive battle style, the Level 4 Normal Monster (Note: Clayman is Normal) [Elemental HERO Clayman] and the Fusion Summoned [Cyber Twin Dragon] were destroyed at the same time; no matter how you looked at it, You Ling came out more ahead.Furthermore, the shockwave generated by the explosion of the two on Dehao Caesar's field further reduced his Life Points.
Dehao Caesar LP: 4000→3200Yilin exclaimed excitedly: "The HERO's counterattack tactic succeeded, You Ling!"After both sides' fields returned to an empty state with no monsters, You Ling's side still had one last set card."Using this method to trade for my Cyber Twin Dragon, I have to praise you for being very brilliant, Yilin Austin! But, merely this level of struggle! Is not enough to shake my victory!"After his monster was destroyed, Caesar, with an empty field, did not choose to end his Battle Phase.Instead, he forcefully threw out a Quick-Play Magic Card from his hand that could be activated during the Battle Phase."It's my turn now!——[Cyberload Fusion] !"
A card face completely different from normal Polymerization ; the Cyber Dragon on the card art converged towards a single point amidst a spiral fusion effect.Dehao Caesar explained: "[Cyberload Fusion] is a Fusion Magic exclusive to Cyber Dragons. It can return my banished Cyber Dragons to the deck to be used as Fusion Materials!"You Ling said in surprise: "It's actually a Magic Card that uses banished monsters as materials for fusion? No wonder he used [Fusion Gate] .
"Because of this card's existence, the side effect of [Fusion Gate] banishing Fusion Materials instead became a positive effect more conducive to Cyber Dragons performing Cyberload Fusion."I fuse using the 2 banished Cyber Dragons, roar once more! Cyber Twin Dragon!""Roar!!!"[Cyber Twin Dragon ATK: 2800]The second Cyber Twin Dragon from Caesar's deck once again bloomed with the light of twin cybernetic evolution on the field.
"Now you have no monsters on your field, and the re-Fusion Summoned Cyber Twin Dragon can still attack twice more! Take this, Cybernetic Evolution Burst!——Triple Strike !"The third blast of light from Cyber Twin Dragon descended; You Ling, with an empty field, could only helplessly control Yilin's body to take this impact with her face.Yilin LP: 3000→200The powerful real high damage impact sent even Yilin, who could be considered an athletic girl, retreating to the edge of the duel field, while her Life Points also plummeted to another edge of being fatally struck."It's over, I've taken the victory in this duel!" Dehao Caesar roared: "Cyber Twin Dragon's final blow!——Quadruple Strike !!"Yilin found it hard to believe: "In one turn, completed Cyber Twin Dragon's 4-hit combo with 2800 attack power?! Is this a second-year senior?"Of course, even among the second-year students, Dehao Caesar, being royalty, was also a renowned powerhouse.
This point was not hard to see from the fearful attitude of the surrounding fellow second-year students when he stepped into the duel field.Countless Duelists had fallen to his Cyber Dragon's fatal quadruple strike.So most people present, after Dehao Caesar activated [Fusion Gate] and Fusion Summoned [Cyber Twin Dragon], believed the outcome of this duel was already without suspense."But we haven't lost yet, Lin!"Just as Cyber Dragon's quadruple strike was about to hit her face, You Ling flipped over the last set card."——Activate Trap Card [Miracle's Wake] (Miracle's Afterglow)!"A faint miraculous afterglow tore through the cybernetic evolution flames, shining before You Ling, blocking the final fatal blow for him.
[Miracle's Wake Trap Card Effect: Target 1 monster in your Graveyard that was destroyed by battle and sent there this turn; Special Summon that monster.]"Using the last card, Special Summon [Elemental HERO Bubbleman] from my Graveyard in Defense Position to block the attack!"[Bubbleman DEF: 1200]The revived Bubbleman, with a hero's body, deployed a bubble barrier, sacrificing himself to negate the twin cybernetic evolution flames.[Bubbleman] destroyedRevived for only an instant before being destroyed and leaving the field; seemingly just an act to survive before Cyber Dragon, yet because of Bubbleman's own effect, it left behind a true miracle's afterglow."Because I revived [Elemental HERO Bubbleman] with my last card, Bubbleman's effect also triggered. When I control no other cards, I can draw 2 cards!"Further accelerating card cycling, You Ling needed to find the key card in Yilin's deck that could launch a counterattack.Yilin:
"Do we still need to keep looking for [Polymerization] magic, You Ling?""Polymerization is no longer needed, the card I need is... draw!"Drawing two cards, You Ling, who had drawn an extra 4 cards due to Pot of Greed Man , successfully drew it.
"The card I need is the stage for a HERO's battle!"Under the dual support of strong desire and strong luck, [Skyscraper], also a Field Magic Card, the HERO's stage, finally arrived in his hand.
