The animation of "Yu-Gi-Oh DM" has many changes and differences from the original manga, and although the game World Link Online was closer to the animation, there were actually quite a few differences.
For example, in the original work, the fighting method of ancient Egypt 3,000 years ago was simply that everyone summoned monster spirits for Pokemon battles, but in this version of Link World, you still had to play cards.
And even though there may be differences in the details of the dueling rules, they are basically the same as the modern rules.
In fact, to say that big companies like Industrial Illusions and Kaiba Corp invented the rules of the duel monster game, it's better to say that the rules of the game were part of the laws of the world that existed in themselves, simply were re-discovered in modern times.
From the card-playing method in which no sacrifices were required in the Duelist Kingdom at the beginning, and everyone could shoot monsters at will, to the system of Tribute Summoning later, and then the Spell Speed, effect processing and settlement became more and more standardized. Version updates were modern duelists' further exploration of existing rules.
Otherwise, this would not explain why all the gods who destroyed the world, the masters who created the world, and even the bosses in parallel time and space who could rewrite reality and reverse time and space, all followed the same rules to duel with the protagonists.
In the past life, a player who entered this memory world found this trial site. But he did not disclose the specific process of the trial, so Yuei Vu had no way of knowing.
It's just that although that player gained a lot, he didn't pass the final trial.
But at least that player could pass the gatekeeper's test at the beginning, thus Yuei Vu was confident that he has no problem.
At this moment, the duel between the two sides-called a "sacred ceremony" by the other party-has officially begun.
[Yuei Vu, LP 4000]
[Ancient Sorcerer, LP 4000]
It was worth mentioning that the 4000 LP value of both sides could only be seen by Yuei Vu, who follows the modern duel rules.
Although the ancient duelists couldn't see their LP, they could feel some kind of power called "Ba" in their bodies. When they were injured in the ceremony, the Ba in their bodies would also decrease accordingly. When all the Ba was exhausted and they were unable to fight anymore, it was equivalent to the defeat of this side.
In terms of modern rules, that was, the LP value became zero.
"According to the rules of the challenge, the ceremony can start with me first. Watch me, the traveler from a foreign land."
It looked like the Ancient Sorcerer got the first turn. A golden light flashed on the ancient golden duel plate on his arm, and a beam of golden light flew into the air, and flew straight into the sky, and then…
…and then five huge slabs of stone fell from the sky!
With the heavy roar of the earth-shaking, the five stone slabs landed firmly in front of the Ancient Sorcerer, kicking up a cloud of yellow dust.
Yuei Vu: "…"
Although I have been mentally prepared, do you really want to play cards with me with such a bunch of cumbersome big guys?
The Ancient Sorcerer raised his hand again, another stone slab appeared in the sky, and with a loud bang, it fell from the sky and hit him in front of him.
this...
…my turn, draw a slab?
The magician glanced at his hand…ah no, it should be said to be a hand, and then a smile appeared in his eyes under the hood.
"It seems that your luck is not very good, the outsider." He said lightly, "This guy seems to want to fight you too. Then let me show you, the strongest warrior guarding this place!"
He stretched out his palm, and a huge stone slab flipped in front of him. The abstract lines engraved on the stone slab glowed with gold, outlining some kind of huge outline. At the same time, one of the five monster areas on the duel plate on the magician's arm was also lit up, with the lines of some kind of monster faintly branded on it.
"Calling your name, descend here—
——Beast King Barbaros! "
The burly beast warrior got out of the stone slab! He has blond hair like a lion, with a flamboyant shape, holding a blue shield and a red gun, and has a half-human, half-animal shape.
Yuei Vu once saw it in the duel with Tenma Yako. This monster was based on the eighth-ranked demon god among the seventy-two pillar demon gods of King Solomon, whose original name was Barbatos.
But obviously, the Yu-Gi-Oh worldview was a magical revision, and the name was also slightly different.
Moreover, the beast king that appeared in this world is much more majestic than the three-dimensional image summoned by Tenma Yako back then. The king was surrounded by lightning, his eyes were blood red, and he screamed at Yuei Vu like a demonstrator, as if he couldn't hold back and wanted to swallow him as a ration.
"High-level monsters originally needed low-level souls as offerings to come, but Barbatos can come without offering sacrifices." The Ancient Sorcerer explained, "But as a price, part of his power will be sealed."
[Beast King Barbaros, ATK 3000 → ATK 1900]
Yuei Vu knew this effect. Although the Beastmaster Barbatos was a level 8 monster, it could be Normal Summoned without Tributing, but its original ATK would become 1900.
The Ancient Sorcerer then chuckled.
"However, I have mastered the spell to lift this seal."
After speaking, he closed his eyes, made a strange gesture, and chanted a series of spells in a low voice but very fast.
Then he pointed five fingers together: "I use the secret spell to summon this weapon—Axe of Fools! Use the power of this battle ax to unravel the shackles of the beast king's power!"
Axe of Fools (Equip Spell): The equipped monster gains 1000 ATK, but its effects are negated.
If Barbatos' monster effect was negated, his ATK would return to its original 3000. Coupled with the increase of the Axe of Fools, it could soar to 4000 points in one breath!
The beast king put the shield behind his back, reached out, and pulled out the battle ax that was inserted into the ground. He raised the ax high, raised his head, and roared at the top of his voice, the sound wave was like a strong wind, forming an overwhelming suppression!
[Beast King Barbaros, ATK 3000 → ATK 4000]
Although he couldn't see the monster's attack power value intuitively as Yuei Vu, the Ancient Sorcerer could also judge based on his experience as an old duelist, the battle power of the beast king was now close to that of the legendary God of Destruction!
Yuei Vu looked up at Barbaros who was running like a berserker, his bangs were raised, and his clothes fluttered violently, without any expression on his face.
He was thinking that every time the ancients used magic traps, they had to make gestures and recite a series of spells. It felt too troublesome, like performing ninjutsu with hand seals…
His reaction seemed to be judged by the other party as being frightened. The Ancient Sorcerer was still a little complacent. He waved his hand, and the two stone slabs fell down with a bang—it seemed that he had blocked two cards in the back row.
"How is it, is it different from what you thought?" The Ancient Sorcerer said, "The Land of Trials is not a child's play, only the best fighters can be qualified to enter.
It's still too late to go back now, if you continue, I can't guarantee that you won't get hurt. "
Yuei Vu didn't take it seriously, and raised the Duel Disk: "It's my turn, draw a card."
Ancient Sorcerer: "?"
He was stunned for a while, and then asked in confusion, "…where is your slab?"
Yuei Vu: "…"
