Chapter 971: The Real Battle Has Just Begun!
The ultimate demon of Arcana Force, the ruler of darkness, Arcana Force EX – The Dark Ruler!
Its shape was exactly the same as The Light Ruler. The huge monster had two ferocious heads, but its body was not completely black like The Light Ruler, but more reddish.
This scene was very strange for a while. Neos who clearly belonged to the "Darkness of the Universe" used the power of light, while Saio's side was known as the "Light of Destruction", but his ace was "The Dark Ruler".
Anyway, someone must be on the wrong team.
Saio: The more I pursue the ultimate light, the more I realize that the power of light has limits, so I won’t be a light anymore!
[Arcana Force EX – The Dark Ruler, ATK 4000]
"With the effect of ‘Light Barrier', when I summon an ‘Arcana Force' monster, I can choose the upright position or the reverse position to apply the effect accordingly!" Saio shouted, "I choose the upright position!
Arcana Force EX – The Dark Ruler's upright position effect! This card can attack twice during the same Battle Phase! "
"With an attack power of 4,000, it can still shoot two consecutive shots?" Judai said in surprise.
But Judai was also unambiguous: "Open the set card: Quick-Play Spell – Mystik Wok!"
Brave Neos whose effect was negated had only 2500 ATK. If he was knocked down, it would directly cause 1500 battle damage. Judai, who had only 1200 LP left, would immediately lose.
In that case, rather than being eliminated by The Light Ruler, it would be better to fry it yourself.
"Mystik Wok's effect is activated! Tribute 1 monster. Select either its ATK or DEF and gain that many Life Points!"
Brave Neos nodded toward Judai as if to indicate, "You're welcome, please feel free to use my body."
"I will Tribute the ‘Brave Neos' to restore 2500 LP!"
A large pot appeared at Neos's feet, and flames quickly rose from the bottom. Brave Neos quickly disappeared into the cauldron that was burned red.
[Judai, LP 1200 ? LP 3700]
"Oh, is this your last struggling before the death?" Saio said disdainfully, "Battle! The Light Ruler, attack ‘Elemental HERO Flare Neos'!"
All the Neoses in the Light Barrier were unable to exert their own strength. Even the Flare Neos, who was famous for his attack power, had been weakened. He had no room for resistance in front of The Light Ruler, and his body was pierced in an instant.
[Judai, LP 3700 ? LP 1200]
"The upright position effect of Arcana Force EX – The Light Ruler! When an opponent's monster is destroyed by battle, add a card from my graveyard to my hand. However, the card added to my hand by this effect cannot be used during this turn."
Saio drew the card that popped up from the graveyard, "I add ‘Hierophant's Wand' to my hand.
And the effect of ‘Light Barrier' is activated at this moment! If my ‘Arcana Force' monster destroys an opponent's monster by battle: I gain LP equal to the destroyed monster's original ATK!"
[Saio, LP 700 ? LP 3200]
"Then the battle continues! Arcana Force EX – The Dark Ruler, attack ‘Elemental HERO Grand Neos'!"
The Lord of Darkness also raised his two heads and opened his bloody mouth. Two beams of chaotic impact erupted from the dragon's mouth, and the Earth hero was also blasted into pieces!
[Judai, LP 2200 ? LP 1700]
"Activate the effect of ‘Light Barrier' again!" Saio said, "I gain LP equal to the attack power of ‘Elemental HERO Grand Neos'!"
[Saio, LP 3200 ? LP 5700]
"This is the end!" Saio shouted, "‘Arcana Force EX – The Dark Ruler, direct attack!
It’s over, Yuki Judai!"
The light of destruction erupted, but the white light seemed to contain the darkness of world destruction!
"Necro Gardna's effect is activated!" Judai showed the card that popped up from the graveyard, "During the opponent's turn, I can banish this card from my Graveyard; negate the next attack this turn from a monster you control!"
The shadow of the undead guardian appeared on the field, and the impact of darkness was washed away like water hitting a stubborn rock!
"Nani? You actually have a backup plan?" Saio was shocked.
There were endless hand traps and grave traps that were hard to guard against, coupled with the rapid swarming and luxurious burst-killing ability. At this moment, Saiou looked at Judai, and he had the same illusion as when facing Yuei Vu.
At such a young age, he has actually obtained the true inheritance of the Duel King!
Saiou felt more and more horrified, and then thought that the other party even possessed the power of "Darkness of the Universe" and was the master of the Neo Space heroes.
If he grows up in the future…
Hiss~ This kid must be eliminated!
"If The Dark Ruler battles twice using its own effect, it is changed to Defense Position at the end of the Battle Phase."
[Arcana Force EX – The Dark Ruler, ATK 4000 ? DEF 4000]
"Set two cards." Saiou paused and said coldly, "You still have that ‘Gameciel, the Sea Turtle Kaiju' in your hand. If you use it to eat my monster again, it will be troublesome.
So I activate the Spell Card ‘Card Destruction’! Both players discard as many cards as possible from their hands, then each player draws the same number of cards they discarded! "
"Ah." Judai glanced at the "Gameciel, the Sea Turtle Kaiju" in his hand, and reluctantly threw it away to the GY.
Just a few seconds ago, he was actually planning to use it to eat The Dark Ruler.
"I end my turn."
"Huh~ It's so dangerous, so dangerous." Judai breathed a long sigh of relief, but then he gained more momentum, "Okay! Then it's my turn, prepare to counterattack!"
Saio couldn't help but frown when he saw the boy looking full of energy and eagerness to try.
Hasn't this kid realized the seriousness of the problem?
Now that we've reached this point, he can still play cards so happily? Is he a fool?
"My turn, draw!" Judai said.
At this time, Neos in the ghost state floated out again: "Judai, we must first find a way to solve the ‘Light Barrier'! If we are restricted by this barrier, we can't do anything!"
"Yes, I know!" Judai nodded vigorously, then showed a card, "Activate the Spell Card ‘Convert Contact'! This card can only be activated when there are no monsters on my field.
Send 1 ‘Neo-Spacian' from my hand and 1 ‘Neo-Spacian' from my deck to the graveyard, then draw two cards from the deck! "
Judai sent two cards into the graveyard.
"I send the ‘Neo-Spacian Dark Panther' in my hand and the ‘Neo-Spacian Glow Moss' in my deck to the graveyard, and draw two cards!
Then I activate Spell Card ‘Legacy of a HERO'. If there are 2 or more Level 4 or higher ‘HERO' monsters in my Graveyard, draw 3 cards!" (manga card)
Then activate the Spell Card ‘Silent Doom'! Target 1 Normal Monster in my GY; Special Summon it in Defense Position!
I Special Summon the ‘Elemental HERO Neos' that was sent from the deck to the graveyard through the effect of ‘Hero Mask' last turn! "
A waterfall-like beam of light erupted, and Neos made a gorgeous appearance again!
[Elemental HERO Neos, DEF 2000]
"It's him again." Jaiou snorted, "Now that things have happened, what else can a mere Neos do?"
"Don't worry, this will let you see the power of Neos!" Judai shouted, "Activate the Spell Card ‘Wrath of Neos'! Target 1 ‘Elemental HERO Neos' in my Monster Zone; shuffle that monster into the Deck, and destroy all cards on the field!"
"Nani!?" Saiou was shocked.
This Neos actually contains such powerful power?
More importantly, this ability came from Neos's exclusive support Spell Card rather than the monster effect. Neos himself was a noble Normie with no effect, so the restraint of "Light Barrier" had no effect on him.
Saio saw Neos flying into the air, arms spread out, and the blue crystal on his chest burst out with sparkling light! A storm of energy raged along the entire site, and the entire barrier was crumbling.
The Light Ruler, The Dark Ruler, Light Barrier, everything he has worked so hard to build will be wiped out by Neos's full blow!
"It's not that easy!" Saio shouted, "Open the set card: Trap Card – Hierophant's Wand! The opponent draws 1 card. This turn, cards on my field cannot be destroyed!" (Animation card)
He laughed.
"It's such a pity. You're only a few steps away from being able to turn things around. It's a pity, but I'm still the more skilled one."
"Judai!" Neos shouted in mid-air.
"I know!" Judai shouted, "Quick-Play Spell ‘Mystical Space Typhoon'! Target 1 Spell/Trap on the field; destroy that target!
I will destroy the Field Spell ‘Light Barrier'!"
Saio: "!"
He understood the tactic instantly.
"Hierophant's Wand" was the card that Saio recovered from his hand through the effect of "The Light Ruler" in the last turn. How could Judai not know that he had this protective shell?
Judai deliberately activated "Wrath of Neos" first, tempting him to use "Hierophant's Wand" for protection, and then used "Mystical Space Typhoon" to chain "Hierophant's Wand", blowing it away before this layer of enchantment had time to take effect.
Saio: I was completely fooled!
While thinking this, Neos turned into a beam and flew back to Judai's deck. At the same time, the barrier on the field was also shattered by the whirlwind and was chopped into pieces by lightning.
"Very good! This way my monster effects can be used!" Judai was full of confidence, "The real battle has just begun!"
