Chapter 139 Stop the war
Daisy dislikes fighting.
Due to both her upbringing and her own personality, she is quite averse to anything involving conflict.
Why fight? Isn't peaceful coexistence better?
Therefore, even though she successfully awakened and resonated with the [Magician of the Overlord Gate], and even though her dueling talent was quite high, she just couldn't muster any interest in highly competitive duels.
Although she agreed to participate in the exchange tournament as a substitute, she had no intention of actually dueling. She didn't even look at the deck that her school teacher had prepared for her, and it's likely that even if she were to actually play, she would just play casually and then give up.
Having no other choice, Mai could only ask Xing Liang to at least get Daisy to lift the Duel Disk.
Xing Liang only said two sentences to Dai Zi.
"What if a powerful card master intends to harm Sera when we are unable to provide timely reinforcements?"
"If you don't like fighting, then unilaterally deprive your opponent of the opportunity to fight."
In the end, Daisy didn't use the deck that the school had specially prepared for her, but instead picked up the deck that Xing Liang had provided.
As for the card deck prepared by the school, it naturally belongs to Xing Liang.
Back to the dueling arena.
Daizi Front Row: Natural Bamboo Shoot ATK2000, Angel O7 ATK2500
Backstage: The Mask of Sacrifice Seal
Venue: Daredevil Racing, no hand cards.
You cannot activate Spell/Trap Cards, monster effects, or Tribute Monsters.
Daisy named this deck "Zhige" – meaning to lay down weapons and stop fighting.
If you can't activate any effects, what's the point of arguing?
"Wow, how do we solve this?"
Xing Ya clicked her tongue as she watched the live stream and sighed.
"This is simply unbeatable."
"Invincible? You're overthinking it. It's only useful because some students in the exchange competition don't have many cards."
Xing Liang shook his head. No deck is invincible; at most, there are differences in win rate.
"Summoning a skateboard at the start prevents the opponent from activating monster effects, but there are also traps that can be played in the hand during the opponent's turn. The simplest example is that a single bubble can stop the game."
He took out his phone, ready to order takeout for lunch.
"Moreover, even this final battle isn't solid enough. The opponent can summon a monster with 2000 attack power to destroy the Natural Bamboo Shoot battle and then unseal the Spell & Trap. Then the main second skill can be used to unleash the Spell & Trap."
Daisy's deck is a downgraded version of Xing Liang's deck that he tested with Albus and the Saintess. It greatly simplifies the development process, but at the same time weakens the endgame strength.
If it's the original version by Xing Liang, there will be at least one more substitution at the end of the game, and it will also block special summons (to prevent special summons that don't enter the chain, like those from Kusha). If the quality of the hand is good enough, it can also add some resistance (let's see if Konami has any new cards that can improve and simplify the combo, and then introduce them later).
"For you, there is still a way to clear the board with one card."
"what way?"
Xing Ya scratched her head, indicating that she couldn't figure it out. The Dinosaur Race has a monster with 2000 attack power that can be summoned to defeat Nature Bamboo Shoot, but how can it also defeat Angel O7?
"A dinosaur wrestler."
As Xing Liang explained, he tapped his phone to order food. "Well, putting everything else aside, let's get some fries first."
"【Dinosaur Wrestler Pankrasin Triceratops】If your opponent controls more monsters than you control, this card can be Special Summoned from your hand without activating the card; it has 2600 ATK and can directly destroy Angel O7 by battle. After the monster effect lock is removed, activate its second effect to Tribute itself and destroy Natural Bamboo Shoot, clearing everything in one card."
As for the mask of the sacrificial seal in the back row, it doesn't even have any effect, so it's fine to ignore it.
Although Xing Liang spoke lightly, Abaddon, standing opposite Daisy in the dueling arena at the same time, did not think so.
Because none of the monsters he can summon have an attack power of 2000.
"I set a card face down and declare the end of my turn."
With no other option, the pointy-headed Abaddon placed a monster card face-down in the front row and ended his turn.
"Alright, it's my turn. Draw a card."
[A pot overflowing with gold due to strong desires]
"The effect of the Normal Spell Card [Pot of Greed] is to banish 6 random face-down cards from my Extra Deck and draw 2 cards."
Although she can't draw any more cards this turn as a consequence, she no longer needs to draw cards.
"As long as the card 'Dare to Race' is in the field area, all damage taken by players with less Life Points than their opponent becomes 0. Although my Life Points are currently lower, in order to prevent internal sabotage... I choose to destroy itself by paying 1000 Life Points to activate it."
Daizi LP6000→5000
"Targeting Angel O7, I activate the Equip Spell Card [Guardian's Power]. Then, targeting Natural Bamboo Shoot, I equip the Spell Card [Magistrate's Power]. The effect of Magistrate's Power increases the equipped monster's ATK and DEF by 500 x the number of Spell/Trap Cards on my field. I currently have three Spell/Trap Cards on my field, so that's 1500 points." (If it were Magic Eye, I could activate the effect of Magic Eye: Ode to Death, and with any removal card, the battle damage would double, and I'd win.)
Natural bamboo shoots ATK2000→3500
The bamboo shoot swelled up completely, showing signs of growing into a bamboo.
"Upon entering the battle phase, Angel O7 attacks the monsters you set. When Angel O7 declares its attack, the effect of Guardian Power is triggered, placing one Spell Counter. Angel O7 equipped with Guardian Power gains 500 points of Attack and Defense Counters!"
Angel O7ATK2500→3000
The monster placed by Abaddon, with its pointed head, was revealed to be the [Horned Rabbit of the Uncharted Territory], with a defense of 2000, and was destroyed in battle without any controversy.
Abaddon originally planned to keep setting monsters until he drew a monster with an attack power of 2000 or more that he could summon, but now that Natural Bamboo Shoots' attack power has soared to 3500, he has completely lost any chance of turning the tide.
"I surrender."
When the bamboo shoots bounced around, trying to headbutt Abaddon, he chose to surrender.
You should replace them quickly; let whoever wants this kind of lockdown deck have it.
Moreover, it doesn't matter if they lose this time. They will attack first in the next duel, and they will never allow Daisy to block the field like this again!
"Orses Duel Academy wins the second match against Gloadi Duel Academy!"
As the AI referee announced the results, Daisy left the dueling arena and returned to the lounge.
As soon as she entered, Xing Liang handed her her secondary deck.
"Here you go, a total of 15 back attack components, equip them."
One of the reasons why Xing Liang's deck is so complex is that his deck construction has to deal with both attacking and counter-attacking situations at the same time, which inevitably makes it more complicated and cumbersome.
However, once the order of attack is determined, it is much simpler to disassemble the corresponding components and replace them at any time.
Daizi: Hehe.
Everyone from the Gloriadi Duel Academy: No, not at all.
