Chapter 110: Get a Rare Card!
"It's time to go, Jonouchi, my last move!" Youyu played another card, "Equip Magic - Mage's Power!"
A green magic card appeared on the field, and the card image showed three green-robed wizards with their arms outstretched, looking like they were chanting a mantra.
"Equip the Mage's Power to the 'Black Magic Priest'. For every Magic or Trap Card on your field, the equipped monster's attack power will increase by 500 points! I put two cards in my hand on the field, so with the Mage's Power itself, I have a total of three Magic and Trap Cards on my field.
So the Black Magic Priest's attack power increases by 1500 points!"
[Black Magic Priest, Attack Power 3200 → Attack Power 4700]
"Attack Power... 4700!?" Jonouchi was shocked, "The unbound Kia Freed's current attack power is 3400. If he is attacked, my LP will only be... how much?"
Jonouchi was stuck in a math problem.
As expected, you still have to study hard. The poor student has trouble even playing cards...
"Don't bother calculating!" You Yu was very "considerate" to help him solve this problem, "Except the 'Galaxy Cyclone' in the graveyard, the effect is activated!"
A black vortex like the abyss opened on the ground, and the green magic card flew out, spinning and rolling up a transparent whirlwind on the field.
"Galaxy... Cyclone?" Jonouchi tried to recall, "Have you seen this card before?"
"The effect of Angel's Charity discarded two cards in the hand, one of which was the 'Super Electromagnetic Turtle' used for defense, and the other was this." You Yu recalled for him.
"Ah!" Jonouchi was shocked, "Could it be that you had already..."
Shocked, how far did this You Yu calculate? Could it be that he had already calculated that the current situation would occur from the very beginning?
In other words, in fact, the duel has been carried out to this point... Everything is within his calculation?
You Yu: "Uh..."
God is within the calculation. This is not a game of chess. He doesn't know what card Jonouchi will draw and what tactics he will use in the next round. If this can be calculated, wouldn't it be cheating?
The reason why Galaxy Cyclone was discarded in the previous round was simply because this card, like Super Electromagnetic Turtle, is a graveyard and can activate its effect in the graveyard...
"Galaxy Cyclone can be removed from the graveyard to destroy a face-up Magic Trap Card on the field! Of course, I want to destroy... 'Lightning Sword'!"
The transparent cyclone obeyed Youyu's command and flew to the opposite half of the field in a directional manner. The Lightning Sword card was rolled high into the air and torn into pieces under the strong wind pressure.
The sword in the hand of Sword Saint Kia Fred also disappeared with the disappearance of the card, and disappeared after the last spark of electricity.
[Sword Saint - Shirtless Kia Fred, ATK 3400 → ATK 2600]
[Black Magic Priest, ATK 4700]
"Fight, final blow!" Yu Yu waved his hand, "Black Magic Priest, attack Sword Saint - Shirtless Kia Fred!"
The black-robed wizard flew out, and the surging magic power gathered from all around, like a churning cloud gathering at the tip of the staff. The dark energy turned into a substantial magic ball, like a verdict that was about to draw the curtain on this fierce battle.
"It's not over yet!" Jonouchi shouted, "My progress is not just this! Activate the face card, trap card, and chained boomerang! Use the effect of this card to put the attacking Black Magic Priest into defense position!"
"Wooden!"
As Yu Yu finished speaking, the trap cards on Jonouchi's field had turned into countless light spots and shattered, dissipating completely.
"What? My trap... How could it be?"
"The moment you activated the trap, the Black Magic Priest's special ability was activated." You Yu said, "As long as the Black Magic Priest is face-up on the field, it can negate and destroy any Trap Card!"
Jounouchi: "It's actually similar to the effect of the android Soga!?"
"Black Magic Priest, continue the attack!"
The magic storm swept in, and the black bullets hit the body of the sword master. Kia Freed tried his best to resist, but even the sword master's body that had been tempered for thousands of times could not defend against such a powerful magic storm.
His body was torn apart in an instant, and the surging and vast magic power immediately roared towards Jonouchi, and the black image turned into a storm, completely engulfing the entire half of the field.
[Jounouchi, LP 2000 → LP 0]
Under the virtual impact, Jonouchi's knees bent slightly, and his body swayed, but he finally stood still and did not fall. But he lowered his head, half of his face was hidden in the shadow, and his expression could not be seen.
He looked a bit like he was hit.
Anzi, who was standing by, was a little worried and wanted to step forward: "Jounouchi..."
"Don't worry." Grandpa Soroku waved his hand and smiled, "Jounouchi is not that easily discouraged."
Sure enough, soon Jonouchi raised his head and smiled with ease but helplessness.
"Ah, I still couldn't beat you." He sighed, "The game is right, you are really strong."
"You have made great progress." This is not a commercial compliment, but what Youyu said from the bottom of his heart.
He guessed that Jonouchi before the Duel City might still be level 5 or 6 according to the duelist rating given by the system, but now Jonouchi may have reached level 7.
Fortunately, Youyu has earned a lot of crystals during this period, opened a lot of card packs, and his own duelist level has also improved. Otherwise, if he was still in the state when he just crossed over and met the current Jonouchi, he might not be able to beat him.
Of course, another key factor may be that Jonouchi rolled the dice more this time. Yu Yu felt that the last duel with Kaiba was not as painful as this one. He and Jonouchi might really have a bad compatibility, and their attributes were naturally restrained...
"Here, as agreed, the puzzle card." Jonouchi was also a person who was willing to accept defeat. Without much nonsense, he took out the two puzzle cards that were agreed.
Yu Yu accepted it: "Okay. Then I look forward to seeing you in the finals next time."
"Okay! You will definitely advance, and I must work hard too." Jonouchi suddenly started to feel annoyed when he said this, "Alas~ I could have advanced, but now I have to find the remaining two puzzle cards..."
Anzi looked at him blankly: "It's because you are so hot-headed. You have to challenge others when you have already secured the victory..."
"Oh, the rare card." Jonouchi remembered something.
Although he would feel reluctant to take away any card, he still took out the deck and handed it to Yu Yu.
"Just pick one at random. That's the rule."
You Yu took over the deck from Jonouchi, browsed through it, and thought about it...
...Need I say more?
Of course it's "The Treasure of Destiny"!
Although You Yu has enough filter cards in his hand now, and it's a bit of a waste to give him this Lucky 20 from the Treasure of Destiny...
...But it doesn't matter! Even if he doesn't plan to use it himself, he can sell it to players!
The Pot of Greed only draws two cards at a time, but if you're lucky, you can even draw six cards at a time! (Although there's a price)
So I set its price at about...three times the Pot of Greed? That shouldn't be a problem, right?
It even feels a bit too little.
...Of course, players at this stage definitely can't afford this kind of card even if they sell everything they have. You Yu doesn't plan to really sell it to players for the time being. The biggest role of these most awesome cards is actually to put them on the shelf to whet players' appetites and give them a thought.
After all, the current players are low-level and have limited production capacity, and everyone has only so many crystals. If he sold all these top-level cards to them at a low price for the sake of temporary benefits, would Youyu still be willing to make money later?
However, when Jonouchi chose this card, he was still a little confused: "You want to choose this card?"
Youyu could probably guess Jonouchi's mind from his expression.
Jonouchi probably thinks that Youyu is a super considerate and warm man, and deliberately chose a useless card to take care of his feelings...
But this won't work!
Jonouchi thinks that Youyu has suffered a great loss, and he feels bad for accepting the other party's "good intentions".
"Think about it again!" Jonouchi was very enthusiastic, "I still have a lot of good cards!
By the way! In the previous duel, I excluded this 'Android Soga' from the game, so I didn't put it in the deck. This is a super rare card I received from the genius Lu Ba. It is 6 stars but has 2400 attack power, and it also has a super powerful effect of trap search!
And there is this, I received it from the insect moth, 'Insect Queen', which is also a super rare card! According to him, it seems to be the insect tribe at the top of the duel monsters!"
You Yu: "..."
No, how come this style is like Jonouchi is selling to him?
Brother, you are giving me a rare card because you lost the bet on the card, not to boost sales at the end of the month!
