Chapter 41: Join
Elemental hero, Tornado, summon!
The warrior who controlled the storm appeared in the center of the field, bringing a howling tornado. The dark storm visible to the naked eye shot straight into the sky, and the arena trembled under the gust of wind. The slender hero floated in the middle of the storm, his dark cloak fluttering in the wind.
[Elemental Hero: Tornado, Attack Power 2800]
This is the last new hero fusion monster that You Yu has in his hand. The fusion condition is "elemental hero" monster + wind attribute monster, so you can use the Golden Blade to fuse with the wind attribute Winged Man.
"Attack power of 2800!? It's more than a skeleton demon!" Tang Zeku looked in disbelief.
"And the 'Big Tornado' also has special abilities." You Yu said, "When the summoning is successful, all the monsters on the opponent's field will have half their original attack power and defense power!"
Tang Zejia was even more astonished: "Such a powerful effect!?"
In the eyes of duelists of this era, the attack power of 2800 is already a powerful monster, not only that, but also has the terrifying special ability of "halving the attack power of the opponent's monster"... This kind of monster Isn't it invincible! ?
The hero of the storm raised his palm, and the tornado swept forward as if consciously. The demon's thunder was briefly dissipated by the gust of wind, and the bones of the demon were dragged into the middle of the storm.
The skeleton demon let out an unwilling roar, and released lightning with all his strength to hit the gale that bound him, but it was useless. Its physical strength was rapidly weakened, and the thunder and lightning momentum it released was not as good as before.
[Demon King of Thunder - Bone Demon, Attack Power 2500 → Attack Power 1250]
Some duelists in the audience began to wonder: "Wait a minute, shouldn't the president's skeleton demon be able to roll the dice when he receives the effect, and decide whether the activation is valid or invalid according to the rolled number?"
"That's right! It makes sense, why didn't the special ability of the skeleton demon be activated?"
"Is it a system bug..."
More than one duelist had such a question, and many people were surprised.
It's better that President Tara Zeku himself has a slightly stronger understanding of the duel rules. He gritted his teeth and said, "I see. The effect of the Bone Demon will only be activated when he is 'selected as the target of the effect', but the effect of the Giant Tornado is to 'reduce the attack power of all the opponent's monsters'. There is no object selection, so the ability is not triggered?"
You Yu chuckled: "That's right."
To put it simply, the principle is this-
——My Big Tornado is not targeting anyone today, but all the monsters here, the attack power has to be halved for me!
In fact, for later poker players, this is a common-sense rule. In Yu-Gi-Oh's rule system, there are many card effects that need to be activated by selecting specific objects. The effect that needs to be activated by the selected object.
However, in this age when duelists are still trying to adapt to the simple rules of "the superior summons requires sacrifices", the rules for selecting objects are too advanced and complicated, and most people really don't understand it.
President Tang Zeku is one of the few duelists who can understand this rule. But the more he could understand it, the more he admired the young man in front of him.
He actually even considered the weakness of the Skeleton Demon King!
This boy... Whether it is the use of cards, the choice of tactics, or the understanding and awareness of the duel monster game, he is terrifyingly strong!
Although the duel was not over yet, Tang Zeli found that he had actually accepted his defeat in his heart.
Or rather, he is even vaguely beginning to look forward to the way he will usher in defeat in the future.
The corner of his mouth twitched, and he hummed: "Fusion Summoning... It can indeed summon a powerful enough monster in an instant, and it is a powerful move that can immediately dominate the duel.
But this method is also accompanied by certain restrictions, you must have taken into account your words, right? The fact that fusion monsters cannot attack during the turn they are summoned. "
Indeed, every time you play a card in this era, this rule will be extremely painful, especially his initial deck is still an elemental hero with fusion as the core...
But it doesn't matter.
He played the last card that ended the duel: "Quick Attack Magic - Fusion Release!"
"Huh, it turns out that this trick is still hidden." Tang Zejia hummed.
"Release the fusion of Tornado on the field, and special summon the monsters used as fusion materials from the graveyard to return to the field!" As he spoke, two cards had popped out of Yuyu's graveyard, "Come back, elemental hero Wingman, Elemental hero, Golden Blade!"
[Elemental hero, Wingman, attack power 1000]
[Elemental hero, Golden Blade, attack power 2600]
Everyone knows what will happen next.
"Golden Blade, attack the skeleton demon!" You Yu gave the final order.
The golden metal hero charged towards the demon. The engine on his back spewed golden flames, and his body turned into a long golden afterimage, like a sharp knife popping out of its scabbard.
The Bone Demon, whose attack power was halved to 1250, was completely powerless to stop the Golden Blade's attack. The golden sword light slashed through the demon's body from top to bottom The armor of the bones shattered with grief, and its body also cracked open with an unwilling roar.
【Tang Zeku, LP1000→LP0】
The audience fell into a strange silence once again.
Even though I had foreseen the result that the president would lose more or less before... But seeing it with my own eyes is still a bit too shocking.
Because this is not just a simple loss of a duel, but the entire duel seems to be firmly in the hands of You Yu.
Even Tang Zeli's summoning of his ace monster, the top rare card in the demon world, "Devil of Thunder - Bone Demon", seems to be completely in vain.
The rhythm of the duel from beginning to end is in the hands of Yu Yu. He defuses the opponent's attack lightly, sees through the opponent's tactics, and makes a beautiful counterattack... It seems that he is still at ease.
Where did such a powerful duelist come from? Why never heard of it before?
"It's me who lost." Tang Zeku stood up, "I lost completely, there is nothing to be dissatisfied with."
"In this way, I can join you, right?" You Yu smiled.
"If you still have the will, of course there is no problem. It would be an honor for us in the Nightcrawler World to have such a powerful duelist as you."
The strong are respected, and strength is the last word.
Seeing You Yu's superb skills, Tang Zeku even felt that this overly handsome face became more pleasing to the eye.
"Thank you, President." You Yu nodded and turned to the onlookers beside the ring, "Then please give me more advice in the future."
The whole house full of sturdy men gave out cheers of welcome.
