Chapter 291: Things that Are Visible and Invisible
The world is drawing cards calmly, but Li Zheng's heart is in a mess.
The "Forbidden Holy Grail" in his backcourt can prevent the opponent's expansion at critical moments; the "Sword Bird Shadow Spirit Clothes" summoned using the "Ritual Demon-Liberator" ritual on the field has the effect of hindering the opponent's special summons , and at the same time, monsters that can be normally summoned within one turn generally cannot break the 2300 defense points of "Sword Bird Shadow Spirit Clothes", and if you use magic cards such as "Double Summoning", now There are only three cards left in the world. After removing the "Shadow Spirit Clothes of the Shining Sword Bird", there will be nothing left.
But... Li Zheng could not forget what the world said.
[Will it be monsters like "Electric Blade Insect" and "Light God Machine-Sakura"? 】 Li Zheng watched the opponent's every move nervously - these high-attack monsters that can be summoned to defeat the Void Bird on his field without liberating the monsters are the cards that Li Zheng is most worried about at this time.
And according to the world's integrity and ability to print cards, the probability of having these cards in his hand at this time is as high as 90%.
However, Li Zheng seemed to be worried in vain - the behavior of the world this round was very strange: he did not perform a normal summons, but took the lead in activating a magic card: "I activate the magic card 'Preparation for the Ritual', and the effect is on you. Got it, I’ll add ‘Chaos Ritual’ and ‘Chaos Warrior’ from my deck to my hand.”
A card similar to the magic card Li Zheng had used before was activated in World's hand. With this effect, he added the legendary warrior holding the great sword that created the world to his hand. It's just that the rules of duel are iron-clad. No matter how powerful the world or the "Chaos Warriors" are, as long as this "empty bird" is still on Li Zheng's field, his power will not be able to be exerted.
It's just that the world doesn't seem to intend to use this magic card like this. It seems that just like the card's name, it is just making "preparations" for a certain "ceremony". "Then, I activate the magic card 'Temporary Truce', and both parties Both draw a card, and then neither player takes damage until my next turn."
A strange peace contract was signed between Li Zheng and the world. Although he could draw cards, it completely prevented Li Zheng from ending the duel in the next round, so he actually didn't want to draw cards at this time.
But there is no way, this card must be drawn at this time.
And when Li Zheng saw the card he had drawn, the corners of his mouth raised slightly - he had already assembled the puzzle pieces for victory!
The "Temporary Truce" card, as its name suggests, allows players on both sides to have a sacred truce in these two rounds, and both sides can have two rounds of valuable peace time; so this card will directly kill the world after severing Li Zheng in the next round. Under the premise, it also cuts off the possibility of the world fulfilling his declaration of "must win" in this round.
As for whether the two sides in the truce use this precious round to build up the possibility of victory or just take a breather, this is a matter of opinion.
"The round is over." The world ended his round calmly - it was as casual as an ordinary round, and it was different from what he said before, "the world line of victory has completely disappeared." Compared with pretentiousness... to be honest, Li Zheng is quite disappointed.
"You say you can win, but in fact you just stayed in a stalemate for one more round in vain, right?" Li Zheng looked at the silent world, and after drawing a card, he said: "I don't know why, obviously you yourself We all know that you can't completely know all my cards, but you have definitely made a "threat level"... Have you ever thought about it, if there are cards in my deck that you have never seen? , and what about the card that can reverse this situation?”
The world closed its eyes and said nothing.
"Now that I have a weakness in your eyes, but...as long as you know that you can only attack from this weakness!" Li Zheng's turn came, and he drew a card towards his future, "You What cannot be observed is the card that no one in this world knows, only me! And this is the place that you can’t reach but I can! My turn, draw the card!”
Li Zheng drew a card as if he were drawing a sword, and this card... is actually not important. The puzzle of real victory has long been in Li Zheng's hands - it was the "temporary truce" used by the world in the last round. "Let him draw that card!
"Only I know this..." Li Zheng turned over the card with an unknown threat level in the eyes of the world. "I use field magic 'Future Vision'!"
Accompanied by strange cries, lines of time and cause and effect began to twist around Li Zheng and the world - the future seemed to be among these "lines" that could be seen everywhere but nowhere to be found. No peeking!
And in the center of the timeline and the causal line is Li Zheng, the owner of this field magic card: "The effect of 'Future Vision' is that as long as this card exists on the field, when you or your opponent successfully summons a monster, You can select that monster and remove it from the game until the next preparation phase of the summoned monster's controller - now you can't prevent your defeat even if you have a four-star monster with an attack power exceeding 2300 points! Card, the round is over!”
Since no damage can be caused this round, and there are no monsters on the opposite field that can be destroyed, Li Zheng did not do these useless efforts, but ended the round directly.
"..."
At this time, it was the world's turn again. Looking at the "Future Vision" that seemed to block his last road, the world... smiled?
"You..." Li Zheng frowned. He didn't know why the world would smile like this at this time - he was obviously forced into a desperate situation at this time, but he still wanted to turn the tables?
"It's very comfortable here..." Shijie stretched out his hands and touched the world lines beside him. The world lines, time lines, cause and effect lines, etc., which were originally manic, began to calm down the moment Shijie touched them, just like a docile kitten; Shijie, who was enjoying "stroking the lines", also stroked the lines while saying to Li Zheng: "Li Zheng, you know? I never lie."
"What do you mean?" Li Zheng didn't know why he suddenly said this, "Does this have anything to do with the duel?"
"Of course, do you remember that I asked that little girl to pass on a message to you before?" Shijie said: "I asked you to borrow more of my power."
"You... who knows if this is your plan." Li Zheng certainly remembered that Shijie asked Xiaohui to help pass on a message. At that time, he kept a distance from this dangerous person, and his suggestions would naturally be thrown into the trash by Li Zheng.
"You don't know how to appreciate kindness." The world shook his head slightly, "Since I know your goal is to continue civilization, with my personality, I will definitely help you; however, you have overlooked one thing, something that is visible but invisible, so I will take action today and give you a unique practical lesson."
"Something that is visible and invisible?" Li Zheng didn't know that this sentence was used by Wang Yang in the original work to motivate Jonouchi, so he just thought that the world was showing off at this time, "Why keep it a secret, get down to business!"
"Something that is visible but invisible..." The world gently drew a card and began his turn silently, "It is fate - you think you can control your own fate, but you don't know that in your first turn, your defeat has already been doomed."
The world opened his eyes, and in his eyes, the "Kabbalah Tree of Life" slowly Flowing...
"Destiny?" Li Zheng gritted his teeth, "It's ridiculous, people's destiny depends on themselves..."
"It's ridiculous or not, just watch." The world put away the newly drawn card, took out another card and said: "I activate the field magic 'Chemical Electric World'."
"Chemical Electric World?!" The moment Li Zheng heard the name, he suddenly realized something, "Oh no, field magic..."
"Remember it?" Li Zheng's performance made the world very satisfied, "Do you understand it now? Your choice in the first round has doomed your defeat..."
"I..."
Li Zheng looked at the chemical electricity impacting his "future vision" with his eyes, his eyes were dull, and he muttered: "Master Rule 2, field magic cards... cannot coexist..."
"Bang!" The future vision disappeared, and it was replaced by a new battle field!
"What a pity, they were all cute little guys..." Looking at the world lines, time lines and causal lines that were shattered all over the sky, the world sighed slightly and turned to look at Li Zheng:
"Now, do you still think you can control your destiny?"
