Is This the Poker World? Ada Thief!

Amidst the thunder and lightning, a tall demon monster appeared on the game field.Covered by pale white skeletal armor, pale pink strong muscles are exposed, horns curved like bull horns on top of the head, and dark blue wings on the back seem to cover the sky and the sun.

Although the attack power is only 2500 points, the appearance of [Devil's Call] aroused Hayato's ptsd.

【Devil's Call】【6☆/Darkness】

【Demon/Normal】

[2500/1200]

The attack power of 2500 points is equal to the trump card of the game [Black Magician], which is enough to disdain a large group of ordinary duel monsters, and the price of appearance is because its level is 6☆, and only one sacrifice is needed. The era does have a very high cost performance, and its only flaw is that its defense power is only 1200 points.

What makes Hayato's ptsd worse is the next card played in the game.

"Normal magic card, [Original Force], activate." A card that Hayato is quite familiar with was played in the player's hand, "Two monsters on the field are used as targets to activate the effect of this card, and the attack power of one monster It is reduced to half of the original attack power, and the changed value is added to the attack power of the other monster."

"I chose to cut the attack power of [Dragon Demon Knight - Gaia] to half, and then increase the attack power to [Devil's Call]!"

With the activation of [Original Force], [Devil's Call] on the game field raised his hand and pointed at [Dragon Demon Knight-Gaia] whose effect was sealed on Hayato's field, and slammed his palm.I saw a white light flying from the body of [Dragon Demon Knight - Gaia] pouring into the body of [Devil's Call].

As the aura of [Gaia] declines, the dark magic power on [Devil's Call] expands more and more.

【Dragon Demon Knight-Gaia】【atk5600→2800】

【Devil's Call】【atk2500→5300】

The offense and defense are reversed, and the identities of the strong and weak sides are swapped because of a card.

It seems that it wants to end the duel in this round, the game has no idea of ​​keeping the last three cards in the hand, and plays them one by one.

"Equip the magic card [Scrap Crash] to make [Devil's Call] gain the effect of inflicting damage equal to half the attack power of the destroyed monster to the opponent after destroying the monster in battle!"

"The continuous magic card [Curtain of Concealment], when the card on my field is destroyed by battle or the effect of the opponent, it can be used as a replacement card to destroy the Curtain of Concealment."

"And just to be on the safe side, pay 1000 basic points, I will activate the magic card [Storage], confirm the cards in your hand, Hayato, and choose one to discard."

【Game: 3200→2200lp】

It can be seen that the game is very cautious, for fear that Hayato's hand may contain life-saving cards such as [Rainbow Chestnut Ball].

Then he saw the six cards in Hayato's hand, which were - [Extraordinary Food], [Nightmare Mirage], [Rogue Goblin], [Psychic Ectoplasm], [Red Reboot] and [ Super Fusion].

If Hayato's cards are used to actively launch an attack, it can be said that there will be no disadvantages, but it is the turn of the game. If you don't cover it in advance, even if Hayato holds the "pseudo-four-speed" [Super Fusion] in his hand, I can only watch the game operation helplessly.

"The card I choose to discard is your [Super Fusion], Hayato." Having deeply realized how enjoyable Kang Kang's hand is, the game chose to discard the most dangerous [Super Fusion] in Hayato's hand, confirming After he didn't have any cards with the ability to counterattack in his hand, the game confidently ordered:

"[Devil's Call], attack [Dragon Demon Knight - Gaia], and finally, the demon descends thunder!"

"This is the final outcome of this duel, Hayato!"

Play cautiously and guard against almost all possible counterattacks.

Because of the effect of [Forbidden Holy Grail], [Dragon Demon Knight-Gaia], which has the effect of reducing attack power and directly destroying a card, has been sealed;

[Collect] Confirmed that there are no cards in Hayato's hand that can be used to block this attack.

Even the possibility that the card on Hayato's field may be [Explosive Armor] was taken into consideration by the game, and [Curtain of Concealment] was specially activated as a substitute for [Devil's Call].

Seeing the Skeleton Demon raise his arms high and control the lightning with its terrifying dark magic power, Hayato smiled.

"Yes, this duel should indeed be over."

"But the game, I don't like the ending now, because I want to win, there is no other reason, I want to win!"

"My ending is to reproduce the defeat in the first duel between you and me? No, the ending of the duel is up to me to change!"

Hayato waved his hand forward, activating the card he had set down in the previous round to activate the effect of [Dark Knight of Gale - Gaia]: "Quick Attack Magic Card [Duel Fusion]!"

An incomparably thick thunder light fell from the sky, but with the activation of Hayato's Gekka, a sky blue light was seen wrapping around the weapon of the weak [Dragon Demon Knight - Gaia], facing the tall [Devil's Call], [Gaia], who was fighting alone, lightly pulled the reins, and bravely went up to the attack of [Devil's Call]!

"This card can only be used once per turn, and it can only be activated when the fusion monster on my field and the opponent's monster declare an attack!"

"The attack power of my monster is increased by the attack power of the opponent's monster in battle until the end of the damage step!"

"Take back your power and win for me, [Dragon Demon Knight - Gaia]!"

The game watched Hayato's [Dragon Demon Knight - Gaia] spear straight up, and the lightning strike of [Devil's Call] fell on his lance, so it couldn't hurt him. The wind and fire on the sky merged into one.

"This is the perfect cavalry maneuver, let's go [Gaia], Dragon Slayer Profound Art·Change·Red Lotus Explosive Lightning Blade!"

[Gaia] in the sky swooped down, accompanied by Hayato's second-sensitivity attack moves, the game couldn't help but sighed, but then, he also smiled: "It's really an interesting duel, Hayato. …”

"boom!"

With the shattering of the [Siege Curtain] and [Devil's Call] were not destroyed by the battle, the excess battle damage cleared the game's basic points in an instant.

Chapter 68 Kaiba and the city

The exaggerated combat special effects stunned all the onlookers. Isano, the only one on the referee's seat, held his sunglasses with one finger to maintain his image. Seeing that the basic score of the game on the scoreboard was completely zero, he announced calmly: : "The winner is already divided!"

"I announce that in the first round of the duel city semi-finals, the contestants who will advance to the finals are,"

"Kobayashi Hayato!"

The images of the dueling monsters slowly disappeared from the field. When Hayato collected his own cards and put them back into the deck, he discovered that the card at the top of the deck that could be drawn in only one round was [Pterodactyl Dragon of Pull- spherical shape].

Even though I took the initiative to print the card, I still couldn’t help Hayato in the duel, and even failed to do the card. [The Pterodactyl Dragon] has no majesty of God in front of Hayato, screaming Play cute to seek comfort.

After calming down the [Winged Dragon], which is obviously one of the strongest cards in Hayato's deck, but is extremely sticky to him, Hayato saw that the game on the opposite side of the field was walking towards him, and also from the duel. Draw a card from the graveyard area of ​​the disc.

"game."

"Congratulations, Hayato. You are one step closer to the final victory you desire." Holding his [Osiris's Sky Dragon] in his hand, Yuyu stretched out his hand and handed it to Hayato, "This is a wonderful game. The spoils of the winner of the duel, accept [Osiris], Hayato."

"Another me..." The phantom of Yaoyou appeared beside Anyou, calling in a low voice for this friend who is one with him.

"Don't worry about it, Aibo." Although he lost the duel, the dark game is quite open, with a calm smile on his face, "I would like to admit defeat, even Malik can do things, it is unimaginable to let go It’s so difficult. Besides, wouldn’t it be good for us to maintain the current state?”

The reason why Youhui came to participate in this Duel City Competition is because he learned from Isis that if he wants to recover the lost memory of Dark Game, the card of [Three Illusory Gods] is one of the necessary conditions, and using the gambling card The regular duel city is the most suitable battlefield to compete for the three phantom gods.

But now, Yuyu ushered in the first all-out failure of his dueling career, and also lost the [Osiris Sky Dragon] he won from Malik, almost cutting off the possibility of finding the lost memory of Dark Yugi. possibility.

"another me……"

Hayato silently took Osiris's traitorous dragon, instead of adding it to his deck, he stuffed it into the card box at his waist for a spare deck, and let it match [Illusory Demon King - Rabiae] You also have the [Thunder Emperor-Harmon] from Dark Malik before as a companion.

To be honest, although the Thunderbolt has a strong suppressive power, and it is not the real card version but the animation version is also quite strong in resistance, all this does not change [Osiris's Sky Dragon] has the best record among the three fantasy gods. crumbling reality.

Looking at the "two" game who was feeling uncontrollably depressed, Hayato raised his eyebrows and said helplessly: "Let me tell you, why are you two so depressed that you came to the supermarket at the last moment of the discount event? Italians who found only Hawaiian pizza left in the freezer?"

"Although I won, it's not impossible for you to collect all three cards of God?"

"Hey!?"

In the confusion of the game, Hayato spread his hands and showed a smile: "The purpose of the game you want the god card is nothing more than to use the power of the three phantom gods to complete the ceremony of retrieving memory. For the god card It doesn’t have any damage itself. In that case, I only need to defeat Kaiba to get the last [Obelisk’s Colossus Soldier].”

"When the time comes, you will take the three phantom gods to restore your memory, and return them to me after you use them up?"

Is there such a way?

The "two" game obviously did not expect that there is such a method, and because of the hope of retrieving the memory, the dark game also had a look called "hope" in its eyes again.

However, the people who heard this sentence were not only the "two" games, the other two who walked onto the duel field also clearly heard that Hayato wanted to "defeat Kaiba to get [Obelisk's Giant God Soldier] " Declaration.

"I can't pretend that I didn't hear that, Kobayashi Hayato." Kaima glared at Hayato, and said coldly, "It's just that you beat the game, and you think you can beat the invincible [Giant God] Did Bing kill me?"

"Hmph, since you beat the game, it's just right, as long as I beat you next, it means I beat both of you at the same time, right? After this warm-up duel, wait for me to liquidate what you have done before. Those things, Hayato!"

Kaiba's tone was not friendly at all. Obviously, the words that Hayato had planned to take [Obelisk] from him before the duel made him quite unhappy, and he did not forget that in the virtual world before, Hayato "Playing" with his [Blue Eyes White Dragon] in front of him.

And the other person who walked into the duel field was also very upset.

"What is a 'warm-up duel', Kaiba, stand still and speak clearly, don't look down on people!" Jouchi was unwilling to be outdone by Kaiba, and also stepped onto the duel stage just after Yugi's duel with Hayato ended.

At the same time, the city also complained to Hayato: "Besides, Hayato, why don't you have confidence in me? Although I don't know what the game needs that [Giant Soldier] for, but maybe the person who will face you in the final is I can't tell either."

In fact, in the audience, Jouchi didn't get much encouragement.

"Although I have a good relationship with Jouchi, and it's not suitable to say something frustrating before the game." Honda rubbed his chin, looking at the rich and handsome Kaima, who is full of dick temperament, "But no matter what I think, I also imagine The picture of defeating that guy Kaiba within the city."

The good brother Honda thinks so, the relationship between the two is developing in an ambiguous direction, and Peacock Dance is also a little less optimistic about the city: "Not only in temperament, but also in the quality of the two decks."

"[Devil Dragon-Dark Demon Dragon] is probably the strongest monster in the deck in the city, but even so, once Kaima summons the highly resistant [Obelisk's Giant God Soldier], his card There is absolutely no way in the group to defeat God."

Among the top four contestants in Duel City, it is still impossible to confirm who is the strongest, but if the question is about who is relatively weakest, everyone present will probably immediately think of the city.

When it comes to games, [Black Magician] and [Osiris’ Sky Dragon] will be mentioned; when it comes to hippocampus, it will be [Blue-Eyes White Dragon] and [Obelisk’s Giant God Soldier]; Hayato’s deck system Complicated, but [Dark Knight - Gaia] and [Ra's Winged Dragon] are also very representative.

Only in the city, it is difficult to find a core monster that can be the main force of his deck. On the contrary, [coin] and [dice] are more likely to become others' first impression of him.

The majestic Jounouchi stood opposite the calm-faced Kaiba, standing on the dueling arena, and Hayato and Yugi returned to the auditorium, waiting for the start of the duel.

Looking at the profile of Jouchi, Hayato also estimated in his heart the possibility of Jouchi defeating Kaiba, but unfortunately, he also didn't think that Jouchi who went all out could defeat Kaiba who went all out.However, all of this is based on the premise that both parties "go all out".

Kaiba, when dealing with Hayato or Yugi, will use all his strength to fight, and he will be more or less careful about traps.But if the opponent is a duelist he doesn't recognize, Haima won't use his full strength easily.

And it just so happened that the "guy who got here by luck" in the city was the duelist Kaiba despised the most.

If he was careless in the duel with Jouchi, it is not impossible for Kaima to overturn.

On the other side of the game, there was something strange Hayato reminded Jouchi when he stepped down from the duel stage and cheered for Jouchi.

"Hayato-kun, why did you suggest that Jouchi keep [Release Fusion] in the duel with Kaiba-kun?"

Hearing the doubts of the game, before Hayato could answer, Isis, who came to the duel field from the infirmary, suddenly covered her mouth and laughed lightly as if she had seen something interesting from [Millennium Jewelry]. .

"It seems that you already know?" Hayato imagined the happy expression on Kaiba's face if the tactic he arranged for the castle was used, and he couldn't help but smile, and asked Isis .

Isis nodded with a smile and said: "Hayato-kun, I have to say, the trick you gave to Konejo is too much, the expression on President Kaiba's face is really..."

On the other side, Yugi was full of doubts, watching Isis and Hayato playing riddles: "So what exactly is [Release of Fusion]?"

"It won't be too far. Anyway, that guy Kaima always glues those cards together and uses them. It won't take long for you to know." Hayato pointed to the dueling field.

Although theoretically, there should be a gap between the second game and the first game of the semi-finals, how could Haima's card addiction wait until that time?Anyway, as long as the live broadcast signal is delayed for a while, he can't wait to solve the castle in front of him, and then compete with Hayato for the throne of Duel King.

After the staff made a simple repair to the duel venue after a duel, before the referee Isino announced the start of the duel, Kaiba and Jouchi entered the "pre-duel" as if it were a customary practice among duelists. Let's talk harshly."

"Hmph, mediocrity, what a pity, your good luck can't bless you to continue your travels in the Duel City." Kaiba raised his head slightly as if he was going to stare at the city with his nostrils, and said arrogantly, "It's time for you You know your weight!"
