Yu-Gi-Oh!: Starting with an Underworld Deck, Depressing the World, Part 175
"!!!" Seeing the short-legged, Sphere Kuriboh slide attacking close in, X's expression immediately turned into a frustrated and conflicted look!
Faced with this one-star creature's mere 300 points of attack power, he was momentarily unsure whether he should activate his only remaining ambush card, the trap [Sakuretsu Armor]!
Destroy this Sphere Kuriboh!
If it were used to destroy this monster with only 300 attack points, X would feel it was a huge loss!
Especially considering he still has [5000LP] health points!
But if he doesn't start it, that damn little brownish-brown ball of a thing is going to kick him in the face!
The damage wasn't great, but the insult was extremely strong. In the end, the middle-aged, sinister-looking man, X, chose to endure it!
"Er!!"
With its short legs, the little Sphere Kuriboh slid and kicked X directly in the face!
This caused the other person to groan in pain instantly!
The kick to that sinister-looking face almost made it swell up!
His health points also decreased by 300 from the original [5000LP] to [4700LP].
"What could be causing this strange pain...?!"
X stared in disbelief at the little Sphere Kuriboh that had returned to the Jiang He, clutching his face in pain from the kick!
Even Jiang He couldn't help but secretly give a strange look upon seeing this.
This little Sphere Kuriboh has been given the power of the Crimson Dragon Quetzalcoatl. Therefore, its attacks now deal true damage, comparable to Shadow Duel!
Although he didn't give any signal, this little guy seems to have gone astray, secretly materializing himself to deliver a fierce blow to the other party...!
Meanwhile, Syrus Truesdale and Chumley and the others rubbed their eyes and looked at the situation on the side of the professional duelist hunter, X.
I'm starting to wonder if they just saw it wrong!
It looks like there's a faint red mark on that X's face, as if he'd actually been punched!
But this isn't Shadow Duel, so how could it possibly cause any real damage?
Could it be that the other person covered it up themselves...?!
Syrus Truesdale, Chumley, Bastion Misawa, and the others all had a suspicion that they "believed in science."
Alexis Rhodes and Rei Saotome, who vaguely knew a little about the little Sphere Kuriboh and that it seemed to have materialized once before, all showed a hint of speculation on their faces.
"Next, I'll hide another card, and then it's end of my turn!"
With a "thud," another huge ambush card appeared on the field in front of Jiang He, and he immediately ended his turn!
They're planning to continue slacking off!
"My turn, draw a card...!"
The professional duelist, X, still had a look of surprise and doubt in his eyes as he gritted his teeth and drew cards from his own Duel Disk!
Looking up at the dark purple clouds in the sky, an eighth orange will-o'-the-wisp appeared.
His mindset immediately underwent another change!
A faint sense of urgency began to rise within me...!
His life countdown to defeat in this duel is almost over!
"I activate the Spell Card [Monster Reborn] from my hand! Special Summon 1 monster from either player's Graveyard!"
The middle-aged, sinister-looking man, X, glanced at the card he had drawn with a hint of urgency, and immediately signaled to activate it!
"I choose to resurrect the [Trap Jammer] in my own graveyard!"
As X slightly raised the Duel Disk he was wearing, an orange-yellow light suddenly shone from the graveyard above and landed on the field in front of him.
In a faint light, it transformed once again into a purple-gray, triangular-shaped mechanical spider monster!
They appeared on the field in front of X!
5.2 "[Trap Jammer] has actually been resurrected!"
Upon seeing this, Atticus Rhodes frowned and said...
"In this way, even after Jiang He repeatedly disrupted the opponent's [Snatch Steal] combo for a considerable amount of time, all three key cards required for the opponent's complete card-cutting chain combo were still on the field!"
This time, however, neither Atticus Rhodes nor anyone else seemed worried about Jiang He's condition.
They also vaguely realized that this new, bizarre deck of someone's didn't seem to have many monster cards.
Even if cards are reduced, it's unlikely that the reduction will be significant at once.
Especially since this guy now had a wicked, mischievous expression on his face...!

"Heh heh heh, with this, my preparations for victory are almost complete."
The middle-aged, sinister-looking man, X, chuckled as he watched as he finally gathered all three key cards needed for his card-cutting combo on the field.
As a top-tier professional duelist, he could easily see that the deck Jiang He was using didn't seem to have a large number of monsters.
However, even with these three key cards in hand, X is confident that he still has a way to reduce Jiang He's card count.
The only problem is that he can't do anything to Jiang He until he activates his killing move, which is one card away from being used!
"Next, I'll place a card in ambush, and the turn ends!"
X placed his last card on the board.
"My turn, draw a card."
Jiang He also smiled calmly as he drew cards from his Duel Disk deck.
After glancing at the card he had drawn, he looked at the other person with regret and said jokingly, "Unfortunately, I didn't draw a monster, and I don't have any monster cards in my hand."
"Therefore, sir, your Continuous Trap [Victory Dispute] can't function, forcing me to Special Summon a Level 4 or lower monster from my hand to reduce my card count."
My turn ends here.
Jiang He did almost nothing, simply drew a card normally, bringing his hand to three, and then ended his turn by continuing to play!
"Damn it! It's happening again...!"
Upon seeing this, X's face immediately darkened and turned ugly.
Jiang He can afford to slack off, but he can't!
The dense dark purple clouds in the sky above, and the nine orange ghost flames that had already appeared above, were like death warrants, constantly counting down for him!
My turn!
Almost simultaneously with the turn of the middle-aged, sinister man, X, as he drew his card.
"Call!!"
The orange will-o'-the-wisps under the dark purple clouds above suddenly lit up again, making ten in total!
It's already halfway done!
Realizing this, a cold sweat began to appear on X's forehead! But after glancing at the defensive continuous Spell Card he had drawn, and at the "revealed" Trap Card [Scrap-Iron Scarecrow] that Jiang He had just activated and then laid in ambush on the field, he could only resentfully accept that he had to play sluggishly along with Jiang He! "My turn is over!" X said unwillingly.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Jiang He "kindly" asked, "Hey sir over there, aren't you going to try attacking?" "My [Sphere Kuriboh] little guy on the field only has 300 attack power." Torture!
Insane torture!
"..." Upon hearing this, the veins on the forehead of the middle-aged, sinister-looking man X, began to throb.
That damn kid!
They repeatedly tormented and provoked him!
"Once that crucial killing move card arrives, I'll make sure this kid knows what defeat tastes like!" No need to confirm!
X gritted his teeth and forced a smile. [Ding, X's Emotion Points +700!]
"In that case, I'll continue with the stall."
Hearing the pleasant sound, Jiang He smiled and said, then skillfully drew a card and ended the turn in one smooth motion!
This level of slacking off has reached new heights!
He was practically ready to have his vampire maid, Camula, brew him a cup of tea so he could sip it and watch the other side's performance!
"Good heavens..." Even Kaiser Zane Truesdale, Chazz Princeton, Bastion Misawa, and the others watching from the sidelines couldn't help but feel their scalps tingle!
I feel my blood pressure is about to spike!
Fighting Jiang He is indeed like being tortured!
There is always a risk of your dignity being insulted!
As for the professional duelist hunter, X, after his face darkened for a moment, he glanced at the card he had drawn again, but he could only continue to follow Jiang He's lead, passively drawing cards, and then had to end his turn!
Even if he uses his monster [Trap Jammer] to attack Jiang He, it will only be easily blocked by the "open card" ambush card, the trap [Scrap-Iron Scarecrow], which blocks one attack per turn, making it a waste of effort...!
[Ding, X's Emotion Points +800!]
But while the professional duelist X was forced to slack off along with Jiang He, the number of will-o'-the-wisps under the dark purple clouds in the sky above showed no sign of stopping its increase! "My turn, draw a card!"
As Jiang He Dan 833 smiled and drew another card from his Duel Disk deck, a fourteenth orange will-o'-the-wisp appeared above, gradually forming a complete circle under the dark clouds above, signifying that he had achieved more than half of his goal!
"Hey sir over there, if you don't make a move soon, the Reaper is already knocking on your door!" Jiang He said with a smile, offering a caring reminder (or rather, a death knell).
He then took two cards from his hand, which had already accumulated to five, and placed them on the Duel Disk. "I choose to bury two cards. End of turn!"
With two loud "thump" sounds, two more huge hidden card shadows appeared on the field in front of Jiang He.
"My turn... Draw a card!"
Seeing the number of orange will-o'-the-wisps in the sky increase to fifteen, X immediately broke out in a cold sweat with anxiety!
Five rounds left...!
Or rather, he still has two large rounds of card draws left!
Because once it comes to the fifth round with Jiang He, that kid will win immediately!
Chapter 337 He's getting anxious! [Please subscribe]
"I still haven't drawn that crucial finishing move card...!"
After glancing at the card he had drawn, the middle-aged, sinister-looking man X, couldn't help but show a hint of anxiety on his face.
He has fifteen cards left in his deck, one of which is a key Trap Card he needs, capable of Special Summon a monster from his Graveyard to his opponent's field!
Combined with the card-reducing effect of his Continuous Trap [Monster Counter], he can reduce a large number of cards in Jiang He at once.
With the 22 cards still remaining in this kid's deck, he could easily wipe them all out in one turn!
"That's how I end this round!"
X stared at Jiang He with a dark expression, and squeezed out these words through gritted teeth.
