Chapter 177 Why Don’t You Just Write “Victory Immediately After Launching”?
"I'm betting all my hopes on this card draw, draw a card!"
"At this moment, I chain-activate the covered 'True Dragon King's Resurrection', and then activate its effect: Once per turn, you can Special Summon a 'True Dragon' monster in the Graveyard in Defense Position. What I want to choose is... Rebirth, 'True Dragon King·Law·King·Beast'!"
The dark power is accompanied by a dark will. When "True Dragon King·Law·King·Beast" wakes up again from Messiah's graveyard, although it has lost all its XYZ materials, the sense of oppression it brings is not bad at all.
[True Dragon King·Law·King·Beast: Defense 3300]
"Defense is 3000, which is a level that even 'Blue-Eyes White Dragon' cannot break through, but I believe in my deck... draw cards!" After Judai used the effect of "Elemental Hero·Bubble Man" to draw cards, he looked at the newly drawn cards with joy: "I activate the continuous magic card 'Nightmare Mirage'. The effect of this card allows me to draw four cards during your preparation phase, and then during my preparation phase, I must discard all the cards in my hand!"
[Haha, after so many years, this trick is still so effective~] Dorothy stuck out her tongue. When she saw the "Nightmare Mirage", she couldn't help but think of Judai's usual trick when she was still studying on "Nutz Island": [Next, What they did was to use the power of "Nightmare Mirage" to remove it, so that they could directly obtain four hand resources while restoring their LP...]
Dorothy was thinking about Judai's tactics like a treasure, but Judai did not cover the last remaining card, but directly activated it. That card was not the "Normal Eclipse" that Dorothy expected, but a card that had never been known to outsiders:
"Magic card 'Philosopher's Stone·Sabashir', activate!"
"'Philosopher's Stone·Sabashir'? What kind of card is this? How come I have never heard of it?" Dorothy covered her mouth in surprise. She felt the power of "truth" from the card in Judai's hand, as if all possibilities would converge on that card!
"The effect of 'Philosopher's Stone·Sabahil' can be activated three times in total, and I have to pay half of my basic points each time it is activated." Judai injected 2000 basic points into it without hesitation: "Its effect is to add a card from my deck or graveyard to my hand, and then 'Philosopher's Stone·Sabahil' returns to the deck and shuffles!"
["What?! This this this this this... This card is too shameless, isn't it?!"]
↑The person who made the above scream was not Messiah, who was being tortured by this card that was just short of blatantly writing "Cheating", but Li Zheng, who was watching the duel from a distance with his clairvoyance on - Messiah actually learned about the effect of this cheating card from Emmanok before the duel, and was mentally prepared for it, but Li Zheng was actually seeing this card for the first time.
[Yujo Judai: LP4000→2000]
Half of the basic points, any search, any recycling...
To be honest, in Li Zheng's eyes, the cost of this card is worth investing even if it is changed to losing the duel directly at the end of the turn after the effect is activated. Li Zheng thinks that judging from the speed of the duel in his previous life, if you let the opponent live to the next turn after using this effect, it means that you are destined to lose.
However, Li Zheng cursed that this "Philosopher's Stone·Sabahil" was a fake card before he knew its limit. Soon he would know that something even more surprising was yet to come - after Judai put "Philosopher's Stone·Sabahil" back into the deck, he took out a new card from the deck: "I want to add the card to my hand: Senior, lend me your power... 'Phantom Hero·Bionic Man'!"
The pale blue "Philosopher's Stone" rotated behind Judai, and the "equivalent exchange" principle of alchemy was activated, but the exchanged object at this time had changed from other substances commonly seen in alchemy to "Philosopher's Stone", and as a symbol of truth, "Philosopher's Stone" could exchange for everything!
"I haven't Normal Summoned this turn yet, I Normal Summon 'Phantom Hero·Bionic Man'!" Judai tapped the monster he had just retrieved, and then the "Philosopher's Stone" behind him rotated again, turning into a card and gently falling into Judai's hand: "Activate the effects of 'Phantom Hero·Bionic Man' and 'Philosopher's Stone·Sabashir' at the same time! I use the effect of 'Phantom Hero·Bionic Man' to send 'Destiny Hero·Magic Man' in the deck to the graveyard! Then the effect of 'Philosopher's Stone·Sabashir': After the exchanged card is used, 'Philosopher's Stone·Sabashir' is added to the hand again from the deck!"
[You you you you you you you you...] The onlooker Li Zheng felt that even if he was a spirit, his jaw would drop in surprise. [You you you you... You are not following the basic law! Are you not satisfied with a random search? Why don't you just write "Win immediately after activation"? 】
But seeing the light of the card dimmed a little, Li Zheng barely calmed down: [It seems that this is a card that will disappear after being used in this duel... Just like the "Phantom Demon Door" I saw before, the "COST" is placed outside the duel? In this case, it can't be connected... Bullshit! This card is printed by Daitokuji! I remember I have his Veins contact information, I want to ask him what kind of mentality made him think of making such a terrible card...]
Li Zheng used "Clairvoyance" to watch the duel of Judai, opened the Veins interface, and clicked on Daitokuji's avatar.
[Can be exchanged three times... By the way, this Philosopher's Stone is pale blue. 】Li Zheng, who gradually recovered from the shock, pinched his chin and observed the "Philosopher's Stone" summoned by Judai. Although Judai was also good at fusion, this Philosopher's Stone was created by Daitokuji. [Generally, the Philosopher's Stone is blood red, because alchemists are self-righteous and believe that the human soul is superior to other substances, so they mix it in for easy purification. 】
At this time, someone seemed to be sending a message to Li Zheng in Veins, but he didn't care, but continued to think: [But little do you know that in front of the real Philosopher's Stone, the soul is just an impurity. The mixing of impurities caused the Philosopher's Stone to become a blood-red secret medicine. And Daitokuji... has reached a realm that no previous alchemist has ever touched. The pale blue "Philosopher's Stone" is only a thin layer of energy world away from leaving the material and entering the pure information world where "truth" is. 】
【"We are not that powerful... And you said 'a thin layer' of energy world, that is a whole world-class gap, you can't even say 'a thin layer'..."】Just when Li Zheng was pondering, a grinning voice came from the other end of Veins,【"Hey, Li Zheng, I've been online for a long time - you can actually turn off 'reading and writing' in the chat window next time~"】
【Damn... I forgot that I subconsciously opened Veins to question this guy for printing such an unreasonable card...】Li Zheng held his forehead, because he had the habit of using "reading and writing" directly in the chat interface of Veins, so the words in his heart just now were equivalent to speaking directly to Daitokuji,【But just as I thought, you actually printed such an excessive card, you should also be moderate when printing cards. 】
【"I am an alchemist and an atheist - I didn't expect the afterlife to be so exciting at that time. I just wanted to pass on all my life's learning to the tenth generation."】On the other side of the Veins, Daitokuji in a virtual office took a sip of coffee and said softly: 【"But you don't have the right to criticize me, right? After all, if you, Li Zhengjun, do it, you can make a purer "Philosopher's Stone."】
【"..."】After a moment of silence, Li Zheng said in a frivolous voice: 【"It's okay, but the console... ah, no, the "Philosopher's Stone" and so on, if used too much, it will always make the game lose its fun."】
【"Console? What are you talking about... woo!"】
