Chapter 1204: One Step Ahead
Kiryu lost.
There was no thrilling fight between the big monsters, and Yusei did not have to use BISS on the spot, or use the "Crimson Dragon Printing Machine" to print a card that looked like a fake card to kill the Earthbound Immortal in seconds.
Or rather, he did not even have the chance to print a card.
Because his opponent did not even summon the Earthbound Immortal…
Throughout the duel, the two trump cards of the Dark Signer were actually quite frustrated. The outrageously Dark Synchro "Hundred Eyes Dragon" was directly trapped when it appeared, and it behaved like a Normie from beginning to end.
The Earthbound Immortal was even worse. Strictly speaking, he did not even appear on the stage, only poked half of his head out to take a look at the situation. He may not have seen what was going on before he was kicked into another dimension.
This was not a thrilling battle, because the situation was one-sided from beginning to end. Yusei did not summon any fancy monsters, and the tactics can be summed up in one word – trap.
In short, trapping the opponent so he could not deploy or summon monsters, that was a victory.
It was calm, but it was the daily life of the card player.
The player's duel was so simple and boring.Kiryu overturned.
This was also natural. If you lost the bet on such a life-or-death card game, you would definitely overturn. And because it was a Shadow Game, his car overturned quite miserably. The front wheel of the D-Wheel was blown away, and the outer shell of the vehicle was scratched in many places and seriously damaged. It was definitely impossible to run away.
Kiryu himself was also thrown out, and rolled several times on the ground in embarrassment until he hit a stone that was divided by the Nazca lines and stopped with difficulty.
The burning lines gradually faded, the flames went out, and the portrait of the giant disappeared.
"Kiryu!"
Yusei jumped out of the car and rushed forward to check on his good friend.
But of course, it was no use.
For those who were defeated in the Shadow Game, there was only one ending waiting for them.
"… Well done, Yusei."
At the moment of death, Kiryu no longer made facial expressions and seemed to have barely regained a trace of rationality.
"Kiryu, don't talk, I'll take you now…"
"It's useless." Kiryu shook his head, "The person who lost in the Shadow Game… cough cough… the soul will disappear, this is inevitable.
But it doesn't matter anymore, anyway, I'm a long-time dead person, it's better to say that I'm lucky to be able to talk to you here now. My wish has been fulfilled, and I don't have anything else to worry about."
Yusei was stunned: "Wish?"
"By the way, you don't know yet, Yusei?" Kiryu smiled, "The guy who will be chosen as a dark Signer… is someone who can't let go of his obsession even if he dies.
All of us are chosen as dark Signers because of an obsession that we don't want to give up no matter what. And that obsession is our wish when we become dark Signers."
"Then you…" Yusei was puzzled.
Logically speaking, Kiryu's obsession should be that he was betrayed by his companions and tried to take revenge on Yusei.
But he clearly lost, why do you say that his wish has been fulfilled?
"Because my wish… Yusei," Kiryu said lightly, "I just want to have the final duel that we couldn't achieve at that time, to satisfy the alliance."
Yusei was stunned.
"Kiryu, you…"
"Thank you, Yusei, this is a very good duel. I realized my shortcomings and also saw how powerful you are now.
In this way, I can finally… be satisfied."
"Kiryu!"
Under Yusei's loud shouting, Kiryu's body petrified little by little, turned into ashes, and disappeared in the wind.
Be satisfied… What a bad line.
Yuei Vu on the side complained in his heart.
The disappearance of his former buddy in front of him seemed to hit Brother Crabhead hard. He lowered his head and didn't speak for a long time.
At this time, Yuei Vu, who claimed to be a good teacher and friend, knew that it was time for him to come out and perform his duties.
"Don't be too sad, there's nothing we can do about it. Even if he says he doesn't hate you in his heart, as a Dark Signer, he was originally a puppet of the King of the Underworld.
In the final analysis, he actually died a long time ago. What you did was just to help him get rid of this sad fate."
Yusei took a deep breath, adjusted himself, and nodded gently: "Well, thank you, Senior Yuei Vu. I understand."
As expected of the most mature protagonist, his mentality is adjusted quickly. If it were some other hot-blooded male protagonists, this situation might not be recovered without being depressed for ten days or half a month…
While affirming Brother Crabhead, Yuei Vu reminded him: "By the way, Kiryu's deck seems to be still there."
Yusei, who almost ignored this fact because of his low mood, finally reacted and looked in the direction of his finger.
Hey, it seems to be true. Although Kiryu is gone, the duel disk and deck are still on the ground…
Then he felt that he quickly figured out the connection.
Kiryu was blackened by the power of the Dark Signer. Those strange "Dark Synchro" and the "Earthbound Immortal" that he failed to summon are all the power of the King of the Underworld, and are the natural enemies of the Signers.
Then from the cards left by Kiryu, maybe we can find clues about other Dark Signers, or help them understand the so-called power of the King of the Underworld and know what kind of enemies they are facing.
As expected of Senior Yuei Vu, he considers things carefully.
And the most important thing for duelists is the card. Since Kiryu is gone, saving his deck is also a good way to commemorate him.
If Kiryu himself knew about it, he would definitely feel relieved.
In addition, Brother Crabhead was a little curious about what the "Earthbound Immortal" that Kiryu was so confident that he could turn the tide with one card was like.
He quickly found the "Earthbound Immortal" from Kiryu's deck.
Just holding this card in his hand, he felt an indescribable invisible pressure. The dragon mark on his arm also reacted immediately, as if instinctively reminding him that there was something fishy about this card.
Earthbound Immortal Ccapac Apu, level 10…
It's actually a level 10 monster! ?
Yusei was secretly shocked.
Born in the Satellite area, most of the things he "picked up" were low-star monsters. Even if he had learned to print cards since he was a child, the limit of what he could print was only the Level 8 monster Stardust Dragon.
He had never seen a Level 10 monster before.
Yusei continued to read the effect of this card.
"This card can attack directly."
"…"
"!"
A monster with an attack power of 3,000, and it can attack directly! ?
Wouldn't it be basically finished with one punch?
Seeing the effect later, he couldn't help but be even more surprised.
"This card is unaffected by the effects of your opponent's Spell/Trap Cards.
This card cannot be targeted for attacks by your opponent.
If this card destroys an opponent's monster by battle, inflict damage to your opponent equal to the destroyed monster's attack power."
Yusei was really surprised.
A monster has four effects?
And it can attack directly, cannot be attacked by the opponent, and is not affected by Spell/Trap effects… Isn't it a nearly invincible monster?
No wonder Kiryu was so confident when he added this card to his hand. It is indeed a scary card.
"…"
Fortunately, I am one step ahead.
