The promised second update, please vote (this week is so miserable...)

"Although it is indeed a very rare deck and a gorgeous combo." Irene said after watching Li Hui's actions: "But you still don't have a way to defeat my 'Beetle Machine · Centipede' on the field."

"Don't be impatient, it's just time to start." Li Hui picked up a card in her hand and said: "I activate 'Feather Broom of the Condor Girl'."

"What?" Peacock Dance in the audience was shocked: "Besides me, is there anyone else who can use this card?"

[I Sister, this card is basically played by everyone in our place, but it's a bit expensive...】 Li Hui calmed down and said: "'Feather Broom of Condor Girl' will destroy all your backfields. Without 'Beetle Machine·Giga Mantis', 'Beetle Machine·Centipede' will only become a target with only 1600 attack power."

"Stupid, I activate the covering continuous trap, 'Beetle Machine Gauntlet', to increase the defense of Centipede by 1000 points!" Irene instantly pressed the button on the duel disk, and a new type of equipment appeared on the hand of Centipede, which made his defense impregnable.

"Eh? Obviously, it will be destroyed by the feather sweep, why did she activate this card?" Masaki Anzi asked in confusion.

"It's very simple." Yugi Muto, who had been silent, spoke up. "'Beetle Machine Centipede' is a powerful monster card that can call out 'Beetle Machine' in the deck when the equipment card is lost. If Hui's attack is implemented and destroys the two equipment cards on Centipede, then the opponent can retrieve two 'Beetle Machine' from the deck at once. If these two are monsters like Chikamantis that can quickly increase the combat power of monsters, Hui will be in danger."

"Yes, that's right." Irene heard Yugi's analysis and admitted.

"So you won't have a chance." Li Hui pressed the button on the duel disk, "I'm activating a trap card from the graveyard!"

"A trap card activated from the graveyard?!" xn, everyone present, including Yugi, who is also the duel king, the organizer Kaiba, Irene, the European champion, and Malik, who was operating behind the scenes, suddenly felt their breathing stagnate at this time. This unheard-of activation method was like opening the door to a new world, making them realize something.

It is said that it was after this match that "graveyard" was really taken seriously by duelists as a concept.

Li Hui ignored other people's thoughts at the moment and continued: "The trap card I activated from the graveyard is - 'Breakthrough Skill'! This card can be activated from the graveyard during your turn. It is removed from the graveyard, making the effect of an effect monster on the opponent's field invalid!"

The sturdy centipede's momentum withered at this time. Although his strength did not weaken, his Zerg Alarm, which he was really proud of, could not be used. Without the Zerg Alarm, more and stronger beetle warriors could not be summoned from the headquarters.

"... Tsk." Irene found that she was tricked. She gritted her teeth and watched her monster being destroyed by the postman on the opponent's field after losing its equipment and effects.

[Irene: lp4000→3500]

"Face a card, and the turn ends." Since this world can be summoned in defense position, Li Hui's Thousand Layer Cat is in defense position and cannot attack. Her turn ends just like that.

"My turn, draw a card." Having lost a lot of resources at once, even Irene felt a bit overwhelmed. Now she has three cards in her hand, two of which are "Beetle Machine", but she is facing a difficult choice.

[In her hand are "Beetle Machine·Bumblebee" and "Beetle Machine·Locust", and she can only use the effect of Bumblebee to destroy one card on the opponent's field... But now there are too many targets worth destroying on the opponent's field. ] Irene looked up at the cards in front of Li Hui: [Leaving aside the monster cards, the most difficult ones now are the field magic "Puppet Dessert Castle" that can increase 500 attack power, the continuous magic "Puppet Dessert Scroll" of the deck search, and a cover card. I really want to destroy them all! ]

But soon, after seeing her third card, Irene made a decision immediately, thinking to herself, "Instead of being entangled like this, it's better to give it a try! 】 said Irene: "I activate the magic card 'Hand Card Erase'. Both of us discard all our cards and draw the same number of cards from the deck. I discard two cards and then draw two cards." Irene discarded two cards and then drew two cards from the deck.

"Then I chain your 'Hand Card Erase' and activate the covered trap card 'Vase of Greed' to draw cards from the deck. This way, my hand number reaches two. After discarding my hand cards, I can also draw two cards from the deck." Li Hui activated the covered card without hesitation, and then she discarded her hand cards and drew two cards from the deck.

【Here it comes! 】Irene smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, the outcome of this round has been decided! I summon 'Beetle Machine·Earwig' and activate its effect to equip 'Beetle Machine·Bumblebee' in the Graveyard to Earwig. Then I activate the effect of Bumblebee to send itself to the Graveyard and destroy a card on your field! The one I chose is... 'Magic Dessert·Gel Ice Cream Postman'!"

"When the field is 'Magic Dessert Castle'," Li Hui calmly took the 'Gel Ice Postman' back to her hand, "'Magic Dessert' monsters will not return to the deck but can return to the hand. I will add 'Magic Dessert·Gel Ice Postman' to the hand."

Erin frowned, "There is a hidden effect?"

"Yeah, so why not choose the field magic?" Jonouchi asked in confusion, "No matter how you look at it, you think this field magic is the key, right?"

"No, you're wrong, Jonouchi." Yugi sweated, "This time Hui really Danger, she has no cards in her backfield to protect her, and the attack power of 'Beetle Machine·Earwig' is too much higher than the defense power of 'Magic Dessert·Millennium Cat'. As long as the opponent can summon a monster with an attack power of 1600 or more, Hui will lose this game! "

[Beetle Machine·Earwig: Effect Monster, Dark Attribute, 4*, Insect Type, Attack Power: 1000, Defense Power: 1000, Effect: Once per turn, you can equip 1 monster with "Beetle Machine" in its name from your hand or graveyard to this card as an Equip Card. When this card is used as an Equip Card and equipped, the equipped monster's attack power and defense power increase by the respective values ​​of this card. In addition, when this card equipped to a monster is sent to the graveyard, the equipped monster's attack power increases by 1000 until the End Phase. 】

"So serious?!" Honda and the extra Shamatte (Gozen Ryuji: Dirty!), who had never played cards before and therefore could not participate in the discussion, said in unison.

"I'm afraid it's already true." This time it was Honma Kenshi who spoke up. He bit his lip. He didn't want to see the girl who had helped him fall to pieces here, but the world of duelists is so cruel. "Looking at Irene's expression, her last card should be a card that can guarantee a sure kill, and the most likely one is 'Resurrection of the Dead'!"

"Little brother, you know a lot." Irene looked back at Honma Kenshi and said faintly, "Yes, I have collected all the pieces of the puzzle for victory, but it's not an ordinary 'Resurrection of the Dead'. It's... a monster card from a dream! I will remove the insect-type 'Beetle Machine·Giga Mantis' and 'Beetle Machine·Locust' in the graveyard from the game, and summon my strongest monster from my hand - 'Devil Shovel Bug', and it will come!"

"Woo~~~~" Pink mist surrounded the two duelists, and a huge insect that could rival the size of a duel airship came down like this! Because of its huge body, it cannot appear in front of the duel parties, but flies in the air with the duel airship.

[Devil Shovelworm: Effect Monster, Earth Attribute, 8-Star, Insect Type, Attack: 2800, Defense: 2600, Effect: This card cannot be Normal Summoned. It can only be Special Summoned when 2 Insect Type monsters in your Graveyard are removed from the game. When this card inflicts Battle Damage to the opponent's Life Points, send the top card of the opponent's deck to the Graveyard. 】

"Attack power, 2800!" Peacock Dance exclaimed: "And no sacrifice is needed, it can be directly special summoned like this?!"

"Fight! 'Beetle Machine·Earwig' attacks 'Magic Puppet Dessert·Millennium Cat'. Of course, according to the effect of the castle, it will return to the hand card, right? But it doesn't matter. Next, it's the direct attack of 'Devil Shovel Bug'-Devil Bug·Hail!"

"Woo~~~~" The sound of insects that sounded like crying and not crying sounded, and the Demon Shovel Bug mobilized the pink mist around it-a closer look revealed that it was countless insects controlled by the "Devil Shovel Bug"-shooting them out, trying to kill the girl in front of it in an instant!

And there was no defense in front of the girl!

"Boom!" Dust and smoke filled the air, and the opponent seemed to have no power to fight back.

"I won..." Irene smiled evilly, looking at the duel disk in her hand, "What? Why doesn't it show win? Could it be..."

"At the moment when the 'Devil Shovelworm' attacked," Li Hui's voice came from behind the smoke, "I activated the effect of the 'Dead Guardian' in the graveyard, banishing it and invalidating this attack."

[Dead Guardian: Effect Monster, 3 stars, Warrior-type, Dark attribute, Attack: 600, Defense: 1300, Effect: Banish this card in your graveyard from the game. The opponent's monster's attack is only invalidated once. 】

Erin asked incredulously: "'Dead Guardian'? When?"

"When the 'Pot of Greed' was drawn, it was the one drawn." Li Hui smiled, "It's really dangerous."

Erin, who had dodged the fatal blow, said stubbornly: "Although I dodged it, I still have a 'Devil Shovelworm' with an attack power of 2800 points on the field. It is impossible to defeat it with the weak attack power of your monsters. The turn ends!"

"That's right, there is no monster in my deck with an attack power of more than 2800 points of 'Devil Shovelworm', but as you once said to Komari, you don't necessarily need a powerful monster to defeat the opponent. It's my turn, draw a card." Li Hui closed her eyes and slowly drew a card from the top of the deck.
