Chapter 145
"Therefore, I summon [Apostle of the Sun God] from my hand in Attack Position."
After a flash of light, a dark-skinned priest wearing armor in the shape of the Sun God appeared.
[Apostle of the Sun God: Attack power 1100 → 550]
[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 5 → 4]
"And at the moment this monster appears, Special Summon two more [Apostle of the Sun God] from your hand or Deck."
So King two more apostles and three monsters stood side by side on his field.
[Apostle of the Sun God: Attack Power 1100 → 550] ×3
Chapter 204 Egyptian God Cards VS Evil God
"Yako, indeed, a worthy opponent to the evil god is still the Egyptian God Cards."
Since Tenma Yakou uses the Three Evil Gods, it would be pointless if Dark Yugi didn't use the Three Phantom Gods.
Then King raised a card in his hand, "By the effect of [Angel O1], I Tribute Summon a Level 7 or higher monster from my hand."
"I offer three [Apostle of the Sun God] as sacrifices to summon the God Cards..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the three apostles were transformed into energy and absorbed by the card.
"A scorching gale swept across the earth, suppressing all things with absolute divine power."
With a flick of King arm, the earth behind him shattered, and a colossal, azure shadow emerged, rising like a mountain.
"Descend, God of Destruction, [Obelisk the Tormentor]!"
Boom--!!!
The giant stood tall on the earth, confronting the terrifying giant opposite it.
[Obelisk the Tormentor: Attack Power 4000]
[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 4 → 3]
Looking at the Obelisk the Tormentor before him, Yako smiled and said, "As expected of Mr. Yugi, you summoned Egyptian God Cards in one turn using my card."
"But it's useless. As long as [The Evil God - Source of Fear] exists on the field, Obelisk's attack power will still be halved."
The source of fear now has a stronger momentum, so the Obelisk the Tormentor has been suppressed.
[Obelisk the Tormentor: Attack power 4000 → 2000]
King was well aware of this, so he revealed another Spell Card from his hand.
"Then I'll activate the Quick-Play Spell [Heavy Storm] from my hand."
You can target 1 face-up monster on the field. That monster's ATK decreases by that monster's DEF until the end of this turn.
[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 3 → 2]
This is clearly a card that Dark Yugi specifically chose to target the evil god.
King: "The monster I've chosen is [The Evil God - Source of Fear], whose attack power will reduce the defense value by 4000 points."
"In this way, the evil god's attack power will be reduced to zero."
However...
[Dark Marquis - Baal: Attack Power 1400 → 200]
"What!?"
Upon discovering that the monster whose attack power had changed was not an evil god, King's pupils contracted.
"It's useless. As long as [Dark Marquis - Baal] is on the field, Mr. Yugi, you can't target my god."
"Why?"
"That's because of the special effect possessed by [Dark Marquis - Baal]..."
While this card is face-up on the field, your opponent cannot target any of their face-up monsters other than [Dark Marquis - Baal] as an attack, nor can they be targeted by the effects of Spell/ Trap Card.
"Therefore, your target is only this monster: [Dark Marquis - Baal]."
King's expression was somewhat serious.
"We were so careless..."
If Belial is destroyed first, and then the Heavy Storm is activated, then Angel O1 can be used to destroy the evil god.
Although Yugi knew the effects of his opponent's monsters, King had told him before the duel not to reveal the effects of his opponent's monsters in advance.
As the saying goes, "A true gentleman observes chess without speaking," King rarely wanted to play a game of cards, but this didn't want to spoil his mood.
So the Yugi says nothing.
Despite being tricked by his opponent and looking miserable, King was still enjoying himself, experiencing both pain and pleasure.
At this point, because he made the wrong choice, he had no choice but to settle for second best.
So he raised his right hand and shouted, "Then I will activate Obelisk's special ability again!"
You can activate this effect by Tributing 2 monsters you control. Destroy all monsters your opponent controls. This card cannot declare an attack the turn this effect is activated.
"What?! This effect..."
Staring at the computer screen, Haiwu Mashe Qizhang suddenly sensed that something was wrong.
He remembered that the effect of the Obelisk the Tormentor required the sacrifice of two monsters other than itself to activate, and it no longer even had the effect of dealing 4000 damage to the opponent.
If you look closely, the cards on the Dark Yugi Duel Disk are also different colors.
President Kaiba, quick-witted as ever, thought, "Could it be that the God Cards in Yugi's hand is a different card? Is that why its effect is different from the original one...?"
If the Yugi were to hear the President's question at this moment, it would definitely answer "yes".
That's right, as mentioned before, the Yugi created physical card versions of the Three Phantom Gods.
These cards are currently being used by Dark Yugi, and if the original God Cards were used, it would be unfair to the Jashin, who is also a physical card version.
Compared to the Three Phantom Gods in the anime, the physical card version is much weaker. However, Obelisk the Tormentor is more flexible than the anime version in that it can release itself to activate its effect.
So very quickly, the giant hand of the Obelisk the Tormentor grabbed the Angel O1 beneath its feet.
Dark Yugi said, "I will release [Angel O1] and [Obelisk the Tormentor] on the field."
"I will annihilate [Evil God - Source of Fear] and [Dark Marquis - Baal] on your field, God Hand Crusher!"
"What did you say!? You actually want to perish together with my god?"
Dark Yugi was so decisive and efficient that Yako was quite shocked by his boldness.
The next second, the Obelisk the Tormentor absorbed Angel O1 and then punched it to death.
Bang bang--!!
The impact of the giant fist tore the evil god and the Fallen Angel to pieces.
The Obelisk the Tormentor's body, having then launched a self-sacrificing attack, vanished into mist.
Yako his evil god instantly destroyed, Ye Xing felt no loss.
"I am indeed surprised that my evil god was destroyed like this, but now you have no monsters on your field."
Dark Yugi: "..."
He did seem impulsive, but if he didn't address the issue soon, he would be constantly suppressed by the source of fear, so this was the only option.
At this moment, Yako added, "And I'm not going to let this opportunity slip by..."
As he spoke, he immediately pressed the button to cover the card.
"Open the face-down card, Trap Card [Level Barrier]. Since the monster was destroyed by its effect, I can target [Evil God - Source of Fear], a Level 10 monster, with it as the effect target. I can Special Summon as many monsters as possible from my Deck in Defense Position with a total Level of 10, and negate their effects."
Yako opened his deck and, after searching for a while, finally picked out three cards.
He arranged them one by one on the Duel Disk.
"I Special Summoned three monsters from my deck: one Level 4 [Female Evil God Nuvia] and two Level 3 [Little Angel Tellus]."
Three more monsters suddenly appeared on his field.
[Female Evil God Nuvia: Defense 800]
[Little Angel Tellus: Defense 500] ×2
Chapter 205 God Slime
After summoning three monsters in the Yako, Dark Yugi frowned, then inserted a card from his hand into the Duel Disk.
"Then I'll just set one last card face down, and the turn ends."
[Yugi Muto's hand cards: 2 → 1]
It's now clear that King is at a disadvantage, but his expression remains calm and composed.
Because there was Yugi watching, he couldn't afford to lose his composure in front of him.
"Bring it on, Yako!"
"Then I won't stand on ceremony, Mr. Yugi."
As he spoke, Tenma Yakou drew a card from his deck.
"My turn!"
[Tenma Yakou Hand Cards: 2→3]
After glancing at his hand, he put it down and then drew a card from his hand.
"I summon [Bow God Lailah] from my hand in Attack Position."
As the player slammed their hand card onto the Duel Disk, a figure draped in a long robe and carrying a bow and arrow appeared amidst the light effects.
[Bow God Lailah: Attack Power 1800]
[Tenma Yakou Hand Cards: 3 → 2]
Yako pointed to Leleyer in front of him and said, "The moment [Bow God Lailah] appears, its special effect activates!"
This effect can only be activated when this card is successfully Summoned. This card gains 100 ATK equal to the Type/Type of monsters in your Graveyard until the end of this turn.
"My graveyard contains demons, Angel-type, and the undead, therefore my attack power has increased by 300 points."
[Bow God Lailah: Attack Power 1800 → 2100]
He then spun a card on the Duel Disk and said, "Change [Female Evil God Nuvia] to Attack Position."
[Female Evil God Nuvia: Attack Power 2000]
The total damage was 4100 points; he intended to kill Dark Yugi in one fell swoop right from the start.
Therefore, King's eyes were very wary, but it was clear that he was not worried at all.
So Yako stopped holding back and declared, "Battle begins! [The Female Evil God Nuvia] attacks Mr. Yugi directly!"
Nuvia opened her mouth on her large face, and exhaled a stream of black mist.
Seeing Dark Yugi, Yami Yugi quickly pressed the button to face down the card. "At this moment, face down the card, activate the Trap Card [Mechanical Mirror]!"
When your opponent's monster declares an attack, you can target 1 Spell Card in your opponent's Graveyard; Set that card on your field.
"The card I chose is [Monster Reborn], of course."
After the Trap Card disappeared, a new card was placed face down on his field.
"Did they borrow my [Monster Reborn] from my grave...?"
"But you can't stop the monster's attack, so take this damage, Mr. Yugi!"
As soon as Yako finished speaking, Nuvia's black mist enveloped the Dark Yugi.
[Yugi Muto: LP4000→2000]
Not to be outdone, the latter flipped over his card and shouted, "At this very moment, activate the monster effect of [Guardian Slime] from my hand!"
This effect can only be activated if you take damage from battle or card effects. Special Summon this card from your hand.
