I Play Yu-Gi-Oh! Card Game - Chapter 1577: Invoked And Eldlich
“Eldlich the Golden Lord, attack directly!”
Golden Lord, whose attack power has been increased to 3500, could cause a lot of damage, and Yuei Vu didn’t intend to take it head-on.
“Open the set card: Trap Card – Stardust Re-Spark!” Yuei Vu snapped his fingers, “When an opponent’s Special Summoned monster declares a direct attack: Draw 1 card, then I can Special Summon 1 ‘Stardust’ monster from my Extra Deck or Graveyard!” (manga effect)
The card flew out of the extra deck, and the shining stardust light transformed into the posture of a silver dragon, opening a stardust barrier to block Yuei Vu in front!
“Flashing ray that tears through the sea of stars!! Roar throughout the world and shake the souls! Come–
–Stardust Spark Dragon!!!”
[Stardust Spark Dragon, ATK 2500]
“Then ‘Eldlich the Golden Lord’, continue to attack ‘Stardust Spark Dragon’!”
The real-life version of Stardust Re-Spark required that the attack power of the opponent’s Special Summoned monster must be greater than or equal to the player’s LP to be activated.
Although the manga version used by Yuei Vu did not have that annoying restriction, compared to the real-life version, it could not negate the opponent’s attack.After the Battle Replay occurred, the opponent could still continue to attack the ‘Stardust’ monster summoned through the trap effect.
This was why Yuei Vu chose to summon “Stardust Spark Dragon”.
“Stardust Spark Dragon’s effect is activated!” Yuei Vu said, “Once per turn, select any card on the field; that card cannot be destroyed by battle or card effect until the end of this turn.
And this effect can also be activated during the opponent’s turn!”
Yuei Vu pointed at the silver-white shining dragon on the field.
“I choose ‘Stardust Spark Dragon’ itself, making it undestructible during this turn! Sonic Barrier!”
The silver-white barrier wrapped around Shining Dragon like a bubble, and Stardust’s wings crossed in front of him, firmly blocking the attack from Golden Lord!
【Yuei Vu, LP 3800 → LP 2800】
“Use ‘Sonic Barrier’ to block it for now…” Nightshroud said, “Then I will banish ‘Eldlixir of Scarlet Sanguine’ from the graveyard and activate its effect.
During my Main Phase: I can banish this card from my GY; Set 1 ‘Golden Land’ Spell/Trap directly from my Deck.”
The trap card in the graveyard popped out and was covered by Nightshroud’s hand.
“I set the third ‘Golden Land Forever!’ from the deck. Then set two cards, and I end my turn.”
“At this time, the effect of ‘Invoked Augoeides’ also ends.” Yuei Vu said, “His attack power returns to the original.”
【Invoked Augoeides, ATK 4200 → ATK 2000】
“This card again.” Yuei Vu shrugged, “How uncreative…”
Golden Land Forever meant another chance to cancel the activation of any card of Yuei Vu’s next turn.
“My turn, draw.”
Yuei Vu thought for a moment and quickly showed a card.
“Activate the Equip Spell ‘Premature Burial’ from my hand.” Yuei Vu said, “Pay 800 life points to revive a monster in my graveyard.”
[Yuei Vu, LP 2800 → LP 2000]
Nightshroud didn’t respond.
“I want to revive this card–
–Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend!!!”
A pillar of lava erupted, and the red dragon appeared in the firestorm, spewing a breath of hellfire from its mouth!
[Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend, ATK 3000]
“Wow, you chose to revive Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend?” Nightshroud said, “This guy’s effect is to destroy all effect monsters on the field that are special summoned with an ATK lower than its own, and then inflict 500 points of damage to the opponent for each monster destroyed by this effect.
It’s a very powerful field-clearing effect, and it’s really scary.”
Nightshroud paused here.
“However, as long as it can’t be activated, any effect doesn’t matter.” He said, “Invoked Augoeides’s effect is activated! If a monster is Special Summoned to the opponent’s field, I can target 1 monster the opponent controls; destroy it.
I destroy the ‘Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend’ on your field!”
“Then I chain to the effect of ‘Invoked Augoeides’ with the effect of ‘Stardust Spark Dragon’.” Yuei Vu said, “Once per turn, select a card on the field that cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects. This effect can also be activated during the opponent’s turn.
I chose the ‘Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend’ on my field.
Therefore, the destruction of ‘Invoked Augoeides’ becomes invalid!”
“That won’t do!” Nightshroud interrupted, “Open the set card: Counter Trap – Golden Land Forever!
I tribute ‘Eldlich the Golden Lord’ to negate the effect of ‘Stardust Spark Dragon’ and destroy it!”
Facing the strongest interference of the Golden Land series, Stardust’s Sonic Barrier was blasted to pieces. With a wail, Stardust Spark Dragon was shattered by the energy beam shot out by the trap, and Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend, which lost the protection of Stardust Spark Dragon, was also blasted into pieces by the summoned beast.
Die as a couple. JPG.
“In vain.” Nightshroud said, “Although they are indeed Synchro Monsters with considerable potential as the clones of the Crimson Dragon, they are completely worthless in front of me.
If you want to beat me, you have to show more strength.”
“Really.” Yuei Vu smiled, “That’s a coincidence, for the duel with you, I really have a new trick. I have never used it on anyone else.”
“Huh?”
Yuei Vu slowly drew a card in his hand.
“Activate the Field Spell from the hand…
…The Seal of Orichalcos!!!”
Nightshroud: “!?”
What… Orichalcos!?
He almost suspected that he had heard it wrong.
The green beam of light pierced through the sky and cast a huge hexagram array on the ground. The complex patterns spread out on the ground, and the strange hexagram pattern was reflected on Yuei Vu’s forehead. The storm of energy roared like a tornado.
Nightshroud’s eyes quickly became a little strange.
“Is this… the field of Dartz?”
“Yes.” Yuei Vu shrugged, “I got it a long time ago, but I haven’t had a chance to use it until now… After all, although it is indeed a very strong card, it is too weird, no matter how you say it, and I really can’t find any chance to use it.”
Indeed, although The Seal of Orichalcos came with a powerful field effect, it also had a terrible price of “once activated, it cannot be undone, and the souls of the losers on both sides must be sealed by the barrier.”
But if the opponent was Nightshroud, it didn’t matter.
Anyway, it’s a battle that gambled the world. If Yuei Vu lost, he would definitely be gone even if he didn’t use this barrier, so this cost didn’t matter at all and could be ignored.
“Interesting, you even dare to borrow Dartz’s power.” Nightshroud said in a deep voice, “It seems that you have made up your mind, Duel King Yuei Vu.”
