"You… did you let my attack pass on purpose?" Amir looked gloomy.
He thought that he had already won the battle, and thought that he had pushed the Duel King to a corner.
It turned out that everything… was completely under the control of the other party!?
Because if the "Gladiator Beast Noxious" in the hand was summoned to resist when the first Van'Dalgyon attacked, then the attack of the second Van'Dalgyon would definitely crush Noxious.
In this way, the effect of Gladiator Beast Noxious could not be triggered at the end of the battle.
"Exactly." Yuei Vu chuckled, "At the end of the Battle Phase, the effect of 'Gladiator Beast Noxious' is activated. Return 'Noxious' to the deck, and special summon 1 'Gladiator Beast' monster other than him from the deck.
bring it on! Gladiator Beast Darius! "
Noxious turned into a beam of golden light and flew back to the deck, and then a beam of golden light flew out of the deck, transforming into a horse-headed beast with strong muscles.
[Gladiator Beast Darius, ATK 1700]
Amir was still stubborn: "Hmph, even if this kind of monster is summoned…"
"Open the set card: Trap Card – Double Tag Team!" Yuei Vu snapped his fingers, "This card can be activated only when I successfully Special Summon a 'Gladiator Beast' monster. Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower 'Gladiator Beast' monster from my hand or Deck!"
The deck was automatically retrieved, and a card was ejected from the deck.
Yuei Vu showed the card: "I special summon 'Gladiator Beast Bestiari' from the deck!"
A green whirlwind rolled up in the field. A bird-shaped gladiator in green armor with a pair of metal wings behind it took its place and flew down onto the field.
[Gladiator Beast Bestiari, ATK 1600]
Amir tried hard to suppress the bad premonition in his heart: "Even if you continue to call for this kind of miscellaneous fish, no matter how many there are…"
"The effect of the Field Spell 'Colosseum – Cage of the Gladiator Beasts'!" Yuei Vu pointed to the huge circular arena, "Place 1 Counter on this card each time a monster is Special Summoned from either player's Deck.
Because I specially summoned two monsters, Bestiari and Darius, from the deck, so two more counters were added!
And…
All 'Gladiator Beast' monsters gain 100 ATK and DEF for each of these counters on this card. Now there are a total of three counters, so the attack power of the Gladiator Beast has increased by 300! "
[Gladiator Beast Bestiari, ATK 1600 → ATK 1900]
[Gladiator Beast Darius, ATK 1700 → ATK 2100]
Amir: "With such an increase in attack power, they can't defeat my Dark Dragon Lord after all…"
"The effect of Gladiator Beast Darius!" Yuei Vu waved his hand.
Amir's forehead began to break out in cold sweat.
There is no end!?
This is my fucking turn! Mine!
I only summoned one monster this turn! Could you please show some respect to my turn?
"When this card is Special Summoned by the effect of a 'Gladiator Beast' monster: I can target 1 'Gladiator Beast' monster in my Graveyard; Special Summon that target, but its effect is negated!"
A golden light flashed in the area of Yuei Vu's tomb, and a card popped up.
"Come on! 'Gladiator Beast Secutor'!"
The whirlwind rolled up, and Secutor, dressed in armor and carrying two water-blue heavy cannons, returned to the field, panting heavily.
[Gladiator Beast Secutor, ATK 400 → ATK 700]
Yuei Vu seemed to have finally finished speaking. He stretched out his hand and made a "please" gesture, which meant that "I have nothing to do for the time being, please continue".
Amir snorted: "Set a card, I end my turn."
"Then it's my turn, draw!"
Yuei Vu glanced at the cards he had drawn and waved his hand directly after adding the cards to his hand.
"I return 'Gladiator Beast Bestiari' and 'Gladiator Beast Secutor' from the field to the deck!"
Bestiari and Secutor both flew up, turning into two spiral whirlwinds! The gusts of wind met in the air, and the bodies of the soldiers intertwined with each other. In the storm, the name of the ancient king of the Roman Empire was called out!
"The fusion condition is 'Gladiator Beast Bestiari' + 1 'Gladiator Beast' monster!
Contact Fusion! Gladiator Beast Gyzarus!!! "
The metal wings cut through the whirlwind, and dark green birds flew out of the eye of the wind! He twirled and flew into the air, stretched out his body covered in dark green heavy armor, and the blood-red gems shone with dangerous brilliance.
[Gladiator Beast Gyzarus, ATK 2400]
"Gyzarus's effect!" Yuei Vu raised his hand, "When this card is Special Summoned: I can target up to 2 cards on the field; destroy those targets!"
Mokuba was overjoyed: "If the two cards are destroyed, you can defeat both Van'Dalgyons in one go!"
"That can't be done!" Amir raised his palm, "Activate Counter Trap Card – Solemn Judgment!"
Yuei Vu's eyelids twitched slightly.
Sure!
Do you even have the "Nope!" old man?
"By paying half of my Lp, negate the summoning of a monster or the activation of a Spell/Trap Card, and destroy that card!" Amir shouted, "I will negate the summoning of 'Gladiator Beast Gyzarus'!"
[Amir, LP 3500 → LP 1750]
A majestic old man in white robes appeared on the field, squinting his eyes and hugging a big snow-white beard. He slowly raised his hand, the palm stretched out gently, and the power of the palm poured out in an instant as if forming an absolute taboo domain.
A bolt of lightning descended from the sky, as if it contained the will of God, and slammed on Gyzarus's body. The emperor groaned miserably, but even he was powerless to resist the will of God, and could only turn into a wisp of black smoke and leave the field powerlessly.
Amir laughed again.
"Hahahaha! It looks like this is your trump card to turn the tables." He sneered, "But it seems that I am stronger now. I have accepted the power of my Lord, and now my duel is perfect!
In the next round, Van'Dalgyon's attack will draw the final curtain for this duel! Regret in the endless darkness, and then always remember who defeated you, Duel King! "
"… Did you misunderstand something?" Yuei Vu asked.
"Um?"
"Since when were you under the illusion that you will have another turn?"
"!?"
Amir's heart thumped again.
No, this guy's trump card should have been definitely resolved just now.
Solemn Judgment negated the summoning of monsters, which was equivalent to directly canceling this step of the opponent's operation. According to the rules, Gyzarus has never been played at all, and the effect of "destroying two cards" could not be triggered.
Does he have another trump card?
Yuei Vu quickly gave the answer: "Spell Card – Monster Reborn!"
Seeing the huge symbol appear, Amir couldn't help but feel relieved and smiled.
"Are you confused?" He sneered, "Even if you want to revive 'Gyzarus' with 'Monster Reborn', it's impossible! 'Gladiator Beast Gyzarus' can only be special summoned by other ways after being properly Fusion Summoned first.
But your fusion summoning was negated by the "Solemn Judgment", and you can't resurrect it even with the "Monster Reborn"…"
"Who said I'm going to resurrect Gyzarus?"
"?"
While speaking, a card popped up in Yuei Vu's tomb area.
"The one I want to resurrect from the GY with 'Monster Reborn' is… 'Elemental HERO Prisma'!"
Amir: "!!??"
Elemental HEROes!?
It must be the card discarded to the graveyard through "Graceful Charity" in the first turn… But why are there Elemental HEROes?
The diamond-like Elemental HERO flew out of the cemetery, and the prisms all over his body reflected colorful flashes.
If there were screwball players here, they wouldn't be surprising.
Because the "Gladiator Beast" deck must be built with Prisma… isn't it common sense?
"The effect of Elemental HERO Prisma!" Yuei Vu said, "Once per turn: I can reveal 1 Fusion Monster from my Extra Deck, then send 1 of the Fusion Materials whose name is specifically listed on that card from my Deck to the Graveyard!
Afterward, this card's name becomes the sent monster's until the End Phase! "
Yuei Vu showed a fusion monster card.
"The fusion monster I showed is 'Gladiator Beast Gaiodiaz'!"
Yuei Vu pointed at Prisma.
"Prisma's effect! Reflect Change!
Send "Gladiator Beast Spartacus" from the deck to the graveyard. Until the end of the turn, Elemental HERO Prisma can be used as "Gladiator Beast Spartacus"! "
Sending the card to the cemetery, Prisma reflected a bright brilliance all over his body, and the reflection of the Gladiator Beast was clearly reflected in Prisma's body.
"Next, I will return the Prisma who was treated as 'Gladiator Beast Spartacus' and the 'Gladiator Beast Darius' on the field to the deck! Contact Fusion!
Show up here-
——Gladiator Beast Gaiodiaz! ! ! "
Prisma and Darius merged into the vortex on the ground, and the undercurrent surged, followed by a burst of movement like landslides and ground cracks. A huge black body emerged from the vortex, holding a heavy and ostentatious giant ax in its rough and thick hands. The sharp and huge ax fell to the ground, blasting a deep crack, and the dust that was stirred up was like a layer of transparent curtain.
[Gladiator Beast Gaiodiaz, ATK 2600]
"A new Gladiator Beast …" Amir gritted his teeth, "But, his strength is not enough…"
"The effect of the Field Spell 'Colosseum – Cage of the Gladiator Beasts'!" Yuei Vu raised his hand, "There are currently three Counters, so the ATK and DEF of all Gladiator Beast monsters have increased by 300!"
[Gladiator Beast Gaiodiaz, ATK 2600 → ATK 2900]
Amir pursed his lips, "Barely surpassed Van'Dalgyon…"
"Battle!" Yuei Vu said, "Gladiator Beast Gaiodiaz, attack Van'Dalgyon!"
The king waved the battle ax in his hand!
The heavy ax broke through the air, leaving a golden arc with an indomitable momentum!
The Van'Dalgyon resisted with all its strength, its sharp claws released an electric current, and a chaotic torrent spewed out of its mouth.
But the rules of a duel were absolute, even if there was only a difference of 100 points in value.
The electric current was pushed away by an axe, and the torrent was also split. The Van'Dalgyon's skin, which was stronger than steel, could not protect it.
With a dull scream, the body of Dark Dragon Lord burst open, and the aftermath of the impact made Amir take two steps back.
[Amir, LP 1750 → LP 1650]
He took two steps back, wiped his mouth, narrowed his eyes, and hummed: "Tch, don't be too complacent. It's just a mere 100 damage…"
"Gladiator Beast Gaiodiaz's effect." Yuei Vu said lightly, "When this card destroys a monster by battle and sends it to the Graveyard, inflict damage to your opponent equal to the DEF of the destroyed monster."
Amir's expression changed slightly.
"The DEF of the Van'Dalgyon is 2500…"
"That's right." Yuei Vu slowly raised his right hand.
"Disappear."
Gladiator Beast Gaiodiaz slowly landed in front of him.
Amir's pupils shrank.
"No, wait a minute, wait…"
The battle ax slashed down with a gorgeous golden arc.
"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"
[Amir, LP 1650 → LP 0]
