"…My turn."
Although Paradox didn't expect this would be such a pain in the ass, the duel still continued. Even if he knew that the opponent's back row has a "Mirror Force", now Paradox could do nothing against it.
"During the Draw Phase, I activate the effect of Field Spell Card – Malefic World." Paradox said, "At the cost of giving up the normal draw, I randomly add a 'Malefic' monster from the deck to the hand."
His deck shuffled automatically, and a moment later a card was popped out face down.
Paradox added that card to his hand.
"At this moment, the effect of 'The Dark Magicians' is also activated. Once per turn, if a Spell/Trap Card or effect is activated, I can draw 1 card."
In front of the Yugi, the magician master and apprentice crossed their staffs, and the spells released were applied to the master's deck.
"The card I drew is an S/T card, so I directly set it on the field by the effect of 'The Dark Magicians'," Yugi waved the card and said, "And according to this effect, this card can be activated in this turn."
Paradox glanced at the card and frowned.
In the last round, Yugi drew a "Retort" with his eyes closed, and Paradox suffered a lot. Now he didn't dare to do anything weird…
But what he had to do remained the same.
"I activate the effect of the 'Malefic Cyber End Dragon' in my hand." Paradox said lightly, "Send a 'Cyber End Dragon' from the Extra Deck to the graveyard, and this card can be Special Summoned directly at no cost.
Come! Malefic Cyber End Dragon! ! ! "
With the overflowing electric current, the steel body, accompanied by the roar of the engine and the sound of metal friction, the three-headed metal dragon raised its head high and let out a heavy roar!
[Malefic Cyber End Dragon, ATK 4000]
The starfish head of the Yugi and the cloak-like school uniform behind him were blown straight, and he couldn't help being a little surprised when he looked directly at the huge body of the Iron King: "Even a monster with the same attack power as 'Obelisk' can be called out in an instant?"
"The power of Malefic deck is beyond your imagination."
Paradox smiled coldly, and then his eyes fell on the set cards in the back row of Yugi.
The card that has just been set, or 'Mirror Force'?
Paradox snorted coldly, "Let me get rid of that card first.
Quick-Play Spell – Mystical Space Typhoon! Destroy that set card! "
The whirlwind rolled up, involuntarily rolled up the set card in the back row of Yugi – it really was the 'Mirror Force'.
Even if it was a powerful holy defense, it was just an ordinary trap before it was activated, and it has no resistance in front of the typhoons. In the gust of wind, it seemed that an invisible hand threw the card into the air, and a thunderbolt descended from the sky to blow it into scorched black.
"In this way, this troublesome trap will no longer exist." Paradox said lightly, "Battle! Malefic Cyber End Dragon, attack The Dark Magicians!"
The three mouths of the giant steel dragon opened, and along with the pitch-black electric current, scorching flames spewed out as if they were about to ignite the air!
However, he saw Yugi… laughing again!
"You just said you were going to attack, right?"
"What!?" Paradox's complexion changed suddenly.
"Of course, you will be wary of my 'Mirror Force'," Yugi said, "that's why I set this card!
Open the set card! Trap Card – Trap of Darkness!
When my LP is 3000 or less: Pay 1000 LP, then target 1 Normal Trap in my GY, except 'Trap of Darkness; this card's effect becomes that target's activated effect, then banish that target!
I removed the 'Mirror Force' from the game to get the same effect – when the opponent declares an attack, all Attack Position monsters on the opponent's field will be destroyed! "
[Yugi, LP 3000 → LP 2000]
After the words fell, the flipped trap in front of the Yugi has been transformed into a "Mirror Force" with a burst of golden light effect.
"What!!??"
Paradox was dumbfounded.
What the hell… why I'm going to fight this Mirror Force today!?
"Beautiful, as expected of Mr. Yugi!" Judai praised.
"It's really powerful." Yusei also nodded sincerely.
Mirror Force, a classic powerful trap card, was still well-known in the future many years later, even Yusei has heard of it.
But he has never heard of anyone who could play Mirror Force so smoothly!
Luckily for Paradox, he had a countermeasure, too!
"Quick-Play Spell – Forbidden Dress!" The next magic card quickly appeared in front of Paradox, "Target 1 face-up monster on the field; until the end of this turn, that target loses 600 ATK, but cannot be targeted or destroyed by other card effects.
I choose Malefic Cyber End Dragon! "
[Malefic Cyber End Dragon, ATK 4000 → ATK 3400]
The mechanical king let out a low growl, every part of his body seemed to be operating at an overload, and the parts rubbed against each other and spilled out an electric current.
With the support of the spell card, Malefic Cyber End Dragon briefly gained the ability to resist destructive effects. The energy reflected by the sacred shield scattered like arrows, and they exploded in front of the machine dragon, as if hitting an invisible barrier, creating countless light blue waves.
"The attack continues!" Paradox shouted, "Smash that unsightly magician master and apprentice duo for me!"
The Dark Magician and the Dark Magician Girl tried their best to resist, but they couldn't catch the shattering power after all. The magic circle released by the two was easily blown to pieces, and the figures of the two mages also disappeared in the mighty light.
[Yugi, LP 2000 → LP 1400]
The impact of the duel in the Malefic World was all physical damage. Despite the buffer of the magic circle, the power of Malefic Cyber End Dragon still made Yugi's body sway uncontrollably as if it would be blown away at any time.
However, he immediately shouted: "The effect of 'The Dark Magicians' is activated! When it is destroyed, I can Special Summon 1 'Dark Magician' and 1 'Dark Magician Girl' from my hand, Deck, and/or GY!"
The black magic circle opened again, and the power of black magic summoned back the master and apprentice duo from the underworld. It's just that when they reappeared, they had already disassembled, and occupied different areas of the field.
[Dark Magician, ATK 2500]
[Dark Magician Girl, ATK 2000]
"It's the two of them again… really are the lingering magician master and apprentice." Paradox snorted, "But mere magicians can't defeat the power of Malefic.
Set two cards, I end my turn! "
