The gatekeeper of the Land of Trials was a little confused at this time.
He had already noticed that Yuei Vu was wearing a strange-shaped armband (that was the Duel Disk), and he tentatively interpreted it as a ritual prop developed in other places.
Duel monsters were not invented in ancient Egypt. Dartz's father had opened the door to the world of dueling monsters 10,000 years ago, and the era of Yami Yugi was only 3,000 years ago. There was a full 7,000 years gap.
It's just that the control of monster spirits in other places was not as good as that of the royal family in ancient Egypt. But it is not surprising that some talented fighters who could control spirits were born in other regions.
In the eyes of this gatekeeper, Yuei Vu was exactly such a person.
…It's just that this warrior doesn't even use a slab?
So what is he going to fight with?
Yuei Vu ignored his question: "Spell Card – Graceful Charity: Draw 3 cards, then discard 2 cards."
Watching the other party stuff the little "paper" into the props in his hand, then three holy angels with a halo above their heads descended from the sky, and at the same time brought the permission to draw cards.
The Ancient Sorcerer couldn't help being even more surprised.
Nani!? Does he cast spells without hand seals or chanting? And it immediately takes effect too?
The shock in his heart at this time was just like… like Kisame, the only honest person in the studio next door who performed hand seal, seeing someone released ninjutsu and clap his hands to get whatever they wanted. It's a collapse of the worldview.
Yuei Vu's image was instantly elevated in the eyes of the magician.
You know, "Duel" in this era was not just a game like it would be in the future. Becoming a duelist required paying a huge cost and price.
Not only did you need to cultivate your own "Ba" so that you could withstand the summons of powerful monsters in the ceremony, but you also needed to accumulate a lot of reading and study all kinds of spell knowledge assiduously.
Because in order to cast a certain spell, you not only needed the stone slab with the spell engraved on it, you also needed to be proficient in the seal, you need to memorize the spell fluently, and you needed persistent practice to learn to release the spell sealed in the slab.
The more powerful spells and traps were, the harder to master. This was why Anubis couldn't help exclaiming that Yuei Vu could control such a powerful trap when he saw that Yuei Vu used "Mirror Force" with only a wave of his hand.
"Summon Elemental HERO Solid Soldier."
The ground broke open, and a hero in steel armor from the distant future descended on this ancient ritual site.
[Elemental HERO Solid Soldier, ATK 1300]
"The effect of Solid Soldier." Yuei Vu said, "When this card is Normal Summoned: I can Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower 'HERO' monster from my hand. Come on, Stratos!"
The whirlwind rolled up the yellow sand, and a hero with a sense of technology and wearing a floating turbine descended from the sky and landed on the field with arms folded.
[Elemental HERO Stratos, ATK 1800]
"The effect of Stratos." Yuei Vu said, "When this card is Normal or Special Summoned, destroy Spells/Traps on the field, up to the number of 'HERO' monsters I control, except this card.
But at this moment, I want to activate the Quick-Play Spell – Mask Change! Send 1 'HERO' monster I control to the Graveyard, then Special Summon 1 'Masked HERO' monster from my Extra Deck with the same Attribute.
I sent the WIND-attribute Stratos to the GY, transform!
The lone hero puts on the mask of vengeance and tears the evil with the cutting wind!
Masked HERO Blast! "
After a series of operations, the two heroes quickly appeared on the stage. Before Stratos could stand still, he was surrounded by brand-new armor under the special effects of magic and transformed into a Masked HERO with green armor and a red scarf.
[Masked HERO Blast, ATK 2200]
"Stratos's effect resolved! At this moment I have two HERO monsters, 'Masked HERO Blast' and 'Elemental HERO Solid Soldier' on the field, so I choose two Spells/Trap cards to destroy!"
At this time, the Ancient Sorcerer was dazzled and dizzy.
Wait, what servant are you calling?
Wait, where did that servant of yours go?
What did you say you were going to launch? No, where did this green warrior come from before?
He was now like a card player who had been out-meta for several seasons, and was in a daze when he saw the opponent swarm the field for three minutes in a round.
Nani? Can you still play cards like this?
When he came back to his senses, the two covered slabs in his backcourt had been blown into the air by the storm rolled up by Stratos, and smashed heavily on the ground into powder.
"The effect of Blast." Yuei Vu continued, "If this card is Special Summoned: I can target 1 face-up monster the opponent controls; its ATK becomes half its current ATK!"
[Beast King Barbaros, ATK 4000 → ATK 2000]
The beast king roared unwillingly, but after a burst of impotent rage, his power was still suppressed by the power of the future hero. Although the data could not be seen, the Ancient Sorcerers could also perceive that the current beast king was no longer the opponent of the opponent's green warrior!
However, Yuei Vu's operation was not over yet: "Activate Spell Card – Polymerization. I fuse the 'Elemental HERO Solid Soldier' on the field and 'Elemental HERO Liquid Soldier' in the hand!
Born from the extremely cold abyss, dominate everything with the absolute power of ice and snow!
Freeze it! Elemental HERO Absolute Zero! "
The two beams of light merged into the fusion vortex, and what erupted from it was a world of ice and snow! The severe cold froze the ground, and the slender hero in a snow-white uniform slowly fell down, with his arms folded and his white cloak fluttering gently.
[Elemental HERO Absolute Zero, ATK 2500]
The strong pressure brought by the low temperature made the gatekeeper feel as if he could not breathe for a while, and even every breath he exhaled from his mouth and nose seemed to be frozen instantly, which made him feel a little afraid to look directly at this ice hero.
"The effect of Liquid Soldier – If this card is used as Fusion Material for a 'HERO' monster, and sent to the GY or banished: I can draw 2 cards, then discard 1 card.
Then there is the effect of Solid Soldier – If this card is sent from the Monster Zone to the GY by a Spell effect: I can target 1 'HERO' monster in my GY, except 'Elemental HERO Solid Soldier'; Special Summon it in Defense Position. "
A card popped up from the tomb area of Yuei Vu's Duel Disk.
"The one I want to resurrect is the 'Elemental HERO Blazeman' who was just discarded!"
A little spark burst out in the extremely cold world, and the flame hero in tights leaped out.
[Elemental HERO Blazeman, DEF 1800]
"The effect of Blazeman – If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: I can add 1 'Polymerization' from my Deck to my hand."
The card in Yuei Vu's deck popped up, he pulled out that card and showed it.
"I added the second 'Polymerization' card to my hand, and then activated it again!" Yuei Vu waved his hand, "I fuse 'Elemental HERO Blazeman' on the field, plus 'Elemental HERO Absolute Zero'!
Reincarnate from the cold abyss and come again!
Elemental HERO Absolute Zero, the second one! "
The power of ice and fire crisscrossed in the air, turning into a frozen waterfall and crashing down to the ground. The Ice Hero descended with arms folded, water splashing around him, but every drop was frozen into ice crystals in mid-air.
[Elemental HERO Absolute Zero, ATK 2500]
"The effect of Absolute Zero!" Yuei Vu said, "When he leaves the field, all monsters on the opponent's field will be destroyed!"
The white hero spread his arms, releasing boundless cold air! His cloak fluctuated like a wave, and the frozen domain under his feet was spreading rapidly. It was an absolutely still space that seems to freeze even the movement of molecules!
Even the mighty beast king could not resist the law of low temperature. He roared unwillingly, but his body still climbed up the thick ice layer inch by inch. The huge ax that he raised above his head was cracked by the cold, and fell on himself, blasting his true self into pieces, turning into ice slag all over the place.
The Ancient Sorcerer said mechanically: "The king of beasts, Barbaros, was suddenly…"
With so many operations in one round, so many monsters were summoned, and the spells in the back row, and the god-level beast kings in the front row were all cleaned up…
…Don't say I've seen this kind of thing, it's unheard of!
At this time, Yuei Vu, in front of him, was simply the kind of hermit guru master who was beyond the comprehension of mortals and has stepped into the realm of gods!
Yes, it must be so!
Why can he call minions without a slab? Why is he free to cast any spell without hand seals and chanting? Why does his battle seem to surpass all the shackles of common sense?
This is simply not something that ordinary people can do, right?
"Battle!" Yuei Vu said calmly, "Elemental HERO Absolute Zero, attack directly."
The Ancient Sorcerer came back to his senses, and his eyes regained their brilliance.
It's not over yet.
Although the front row and the back row were all wiped out, he still had a way!
A black vortex opened up on the ground in front of him, and a trap with special power recorded was launched directly from the cemetery.
Trap Card – Cross Counter Trap! (animation card)
The turn this card was sent to the Graveyard, the player could activate a Trap Card from their hand once.
In the hand of the Ancient Sorcerer, a stone slab with trap spells was flipped rapidly with his high-speed chanting.
"Activate 'Dimensional Wall'!" said the Ancient Sorcerer, "The damage caused by a battle will be borne by the opponent!"
In this way, not only could he survive this round, but he could also deal Yuei Vu 2500 points of high damage!
As long as I can hold on to the next round…
But Yuei Vu smiled slightly.
"I pay half of the life value as the price."
[Yuei Vu, LP 4000 → LP 2000]
"Activate a from the hand – Red Reboot!" A bright red trap card appeared in front of Yuei Vu, "When the opponent activates a Trap Card: Negate the activation, and Set that card face-down again, then the opponent can Set 1 other Trap directly from their Deck.
But after this card is activated, until the end of the turn, the opponent cannot activate traps in any form! "
Ancient Sorcerer: "!?"
… seamlessly.
All moves were blocked, and he couldn't even find the slightest possibility to counterattack. He lost completely.
The double impact of Absolute Zero and Blast, the gorgeous light effect overwhelmed him, and at the same time directly emptied his Ba.
[Ancient Sorcerer, LP 4000 → LP 0]
