"Buzz!!"

As Jiang He finished speaking, a dark red energy light suddenly shone on the [Necrovalley Temple], the perpetual trap that had just been activated on the field in front of him! Immediately, the tomb-guarding Gravekeeper Assailant soldier on the field in front of him, and who was raising her serpent-blade short sword to stab, also had her attack power drop by 500 points to 1500 points under the suppression of this energy! As if her movements had become much slower, the [Gravekeeper's Guard] summoned by Jiang He reacted in the blink of an eye, turned around and raised her long spear-weapon to block the serpent-blade short sword, directly knocking her back!

As a result of the Gravekeeper Assailant appearing behind him and attempting a backstab, he was knocked back and bumped into Jiang He not far in front of him, where Jiang He quickly raised his hand to catch him.

"Uh... are you alright?" Jiang He greeted him somewhat awkwardly.

After all, this Gravekeeper Assailant had tried to save him and Alexis several times before, but now she had been repelled by the Gravekeeper Guard he summoned.

And to make matters worse, we bumped into him, which was a little awkward...

The Gravekeeper's Assailant nodded slightly, then vanished into the shadows, immediately returning to the opposite side of the field. Alexis Rhodes finally recognized the Gravekeeper's Assailant; he seemed to be the same person she had seen earlier who had advised her and Jiang He to leave. "That boy... he's truly infuriating!" The Gravekeeper Elder's face was as black as coal as he glared at Jiang He. At this moment, the [Gravekeeper's Assailant] was defeated by Jiang He's [Gravekeeper's Guard] and returned to the field in front of him.

His health, which had already decreased by 3600 LP, dropped by another 100 LP, bringing it down to 3500 LP.

However, compared to the mere 100 LP reduction in health, the effect of Jiang He's perpetual trap [Necrovalley Temple] made him even more unlucky!

Use his Field Spell and monsters as activation conditions to lower the attack power of his monsters!

Then you can also get free benefits from his Field Spell [Necrovalley], which provides a buff to "Gravekeeper's Monsters"!

The moment the Gravekeeper Elder thought about Jiang He He's outrageous move, his fists hardened instantly!

His desire to personally engage in combat and attack this seemingly harmless but actually blood-raising teenager was growing stronger and stronger!

[Ding! The Gravekeeper Elder's Emotion Points +800!]

Unfortunately, he has already summoned a monster this turn and cannot summon any more.

At most, we can only continue the attack.

But when he saw that his other monster on the field, [Gravekeeper's Spear Soldier], had also had its attack power reduced by 500 points to 1500, the Gravekeeper Elder immediately abandoned the idea.

If the boy named Jiang He, and the other monster Gai Fang possessed were also [the Gravekeeper's Guard]...

With the Field Spell buff, his defense reaches a whopping 2400 points, which is far beyond the reach of his [Gravekeeper's Spear Soldier]!

"Since the [Gravekeeper's Spear Soldier] didn't attack just now, I've chosen to change him to Defense Position when we enter Main Phase 2 at the end of the battle phase!"

As the Gravekeeper's Elder finished speaking, the Gravekeeper Spear Soldier in front of him immediately squatted down with their spears in hand, and the huge horizontal shadows of the cards appearing under their feet transformed into a defensive stance.

"Round over!"

"They've stopped attacking?" Jiang He clicked his tongue in disappointment and muttered.

He said he was still waiting for the Gravekeeper's to bump into the monster he had placed there again, and open the "surprise" he had prepared!

Hearing Jiang He He's mutterings, the Gravekeeper's Elder across from them darkened even more.

As for Alexis Rhodes and the others, they couldn't help but facepalm!

This guy is absolutely infuriating to the point of being in the underworld.

"Now it's my turn, draw a card!"

After a moment of regret, Jiang He quickly drew a card from his Duel Disk deck, then waved with a happy smile.

"Since you're not attacking the Gravekeeper's over there, then I'll personally uncover the mystery!"

"Flip Summon, [Gravekeeper's Spy]!". Requesting flowers...

As he finished speaking, the huge, horizontally placed card flipped over, and a faint light emerged from it, transforming into the figure of an ordinary female scout dressed in black robes with brown skin.

He crouched down in a defensive stance and appeared on the field in front of Jiang He.

[The Gravekeeper's Spy]

[Star Rating: 4]

[Attribute: Dark]

[Attack Power: 1200]

[Defense Strength: 2000]

"It's actually the Gravekeeper's Spy?!" The Gravekeeper Elder was immediately surprised and had a bad feeling when he saw the figure!

Meanwhile, Jaden Yuki and Syrus Truesdale looked at Jiang He with curiosity.

Clearly, they had no idea about the effects.

They were just dueling with the Gravekeeper's uncle, and they didn't see him summon this monster at all!

"You should know her effect, you Gravekeeper's over there, right? This card's flip effect allows you to Special Summon a Gravekeeper's monster with 1500 or less ATK from your Deck!" Jiang He's smile brightened instantly as he pulled a card from his deck and gestured to the Gravekeeper Elder. "I choose to Special Summon [Gravekeeper's Cannonholder]!" "Ha!!"

As a faint light appeared, a figure in black robes, somewhat resembling a spearman but carrying an ancient magic cannon, emerged.

He crouched down in a defensive stance, appearing on the huge card shadow that appeared in front of Jiang He!

"The Gravekeeper's... a heavy artilleryman?" The Gravekeeper Elder's expression immediately turned to surprise and astonishment.

The assassin and the other members of the Gravekeeper Clan were all completely bewildered.

Do their Gravekeeper Clan still have members holding such a position?

Why don't they know this themselves?

However, even just looking at Jiang He He's strangely bright smile, and seeing the [Gravekeeper's Cannonholder] aim his magic cannon at him as soon as he appeared, the Gravekeeper Elder already had a very bad feeling!

He had a feeling that something quite outrageous was about to happen!

Tipping, reporting, commenting, and sharing

Under the watchful eyes of the Gravekeeper Elder and others, Jiang He smiled and took out one of his three remaining cards, gesturing for them to be played!

"Since I haven't performed Normal Summon this turn, I'm summoning in attack mode, [Gravekeeper's Curse]!"

"Snort!!"

As another golden light appeared, a dark-skinned figure dressed in black robes, holding a spell wand in both hands, emerged with a chuckle.

They appeared on the field in front of Jiang He!

The Gravekeeper's Curse

[Star Rating: 4]

[Attribute: Dark]

[Attack Power: 1400]

[Defense Strength: 1200]

"It's that weird Gravekeeper's from before, the one that could deal 500 damage to the opponent just by being summoned...!"

At the altar, Jaden Yuki, who was watching the battle, saw the figure of the Gravekeeper's Monster wielding the "693" magic wand and felt his head start to ache!

He instinctively leaned back and took a step back!

Meanwhile, the Gravekeeper Elder, who was the dueling opponent in the distance, couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine when he saw the figure of the Gravekeeper Curse.

Then he saw Jiang He say with a bright smile.

"[The Gravekeeper's Curse]'s special effect: When this card is Normal Summoned, Flip Summoned, or Special Summon, inflict 500 damage to your opponent!"

"The Gravekeeper's Curse, Avada Kedavra!"

As Jiang He waved his hand, the figure of the black-robed sorcerer holding a spell wand on the ground in front of him suddenly began chanting incantations, a burst of golden energy emanating from his body!

Upon hearing this, the Gravekeeper Elder was momentarily stunned.

Avada Kedavra?

Shouldn't the spells used by the Gravekeeper Clan of sorcerers be called Forbidden Spell?

"Er!!"

But before he could even complain, the next second he was attacked by a golden curse energy, and he cried out in pain, clutching his head!

The Gravekeeper Elder's original [3500LP] health points also decreased by 500LP, becoming [3000LP].

"However, it seems this still isn't enough to defeat the Gravekeeper's Elder in one fell swoop, which is a real shame."

Chumley, seeing that the other side still had [3000LP] left, couldn't help but feel a little regretful and spoke up from Jiang He's side.

"No, Jiang He, that guy, clearly has several monsters on the field, but he only summoned most of them in Defense Position, while he summoned the [Gravekeeper Curse], which has the lowest attack power, in Attack Position. It seems rather random."

Alexis Rhodes, however, immediately noticed something was amiss.

"This guy's offensive is definitely going to go far beyond this!"

Jaden Yuki, along with Professor Banner and Sho Syrus Truesdale, all nodded in agreement instantly.

They had the same premonition!

The effects of this Gravekeeper Curse are likely only the beginning of what's to come in the underworld!

"Let me tell you some more good news, the Gravekeeper's over there!"

Soon, they and the Gravekeeper Elder, who was their dueling opponent in the distance, all saw Jiang He with a beaming smile.

He pointed to the figure in black robes, carrying a magic cannon, that he had just Special Summon on his field.

"[Gravekeeper's Cannonholder]'s special effect allows you to Tribute 1 Gravekeeper's monster on your field (excluding himself) as a cannonball, dealing 700 damage to your opponent!"

"What?! It's an effect that releases the Gravekeeper's Monster and inflicts damage on the opponent!" The Gravekeeper's Elder was startled, realizing something.

"Masaka (Could it be)...!"

Then he heard Jiang He's voice, which was chuckling softly.

"That's Masaka! I'm unleashing the [Gravekeeper's Curse] as ammunition to fire at you!"

As Jiang He finished speaking, the black-robed sorcerer figure that had just been summoned and dealt 500 damage to the Gravekeeper Elder instantly transformed into a golden energy and fell into the magic cannon carried on the shoulder of the Gravekeeper Cannonholder artilleryman!

The next second, he instantly aimed at the figure of the Gravekeeper Elder on the distant stone pillar opposite!

"Bang!!"

Amidst the opponent's slightly flustered expression, the magic cannon instantly fired a golden energy beam, which accurately struck the opponent in front of him, exploding into a burst of sparks!

The white robe was immediately blasted open with several wounds!

This caused the Gravekeeper Elder to clutch the small wound on his body and cry out in pain!

His [3000LP] health points also decreased by another 700LP, becoming [2300LP]. "Hey, old man Gravekeeper's, you seem to have guessed some of what I'm going to do."

Seeing that the other party had recovered and looked over, Jiang He smiled faintly and immediately gestured to one of the two ambush cards on the field in front of him.

"Activate the ambush card, trap [Rite of Spirit]!"

A trap depicting the Gravekeeper Elder himself, along with soldiers and spearmen, performing some kind of ritual in front of a snake-bodied monster statue, summoning a guardian, was suddenly activated!

Upon seeing this rather familiar trap, the Gravekeeper Elder's face immediately turned green!

His expression was even more aggrieved and distressed than when he was injured!

He also had this trap card placed on his field, so he was quite aware of its effect.

[Ding! The Gravekeeper's Elder's Emotion Points increased by 900!]
