Chapter 1009: Another Casual Loop
"What?"
Yeshen glanced at the Iron Knight that had been summoned back to the field, his brow furrowing slightly. A thought crossed his mind.
The precise defense of reviving a Level 4 monster from the Graveyard to serve as an invincible shield for one turn was the reason he had brought the Iron Knight back. That was his first instinct.
But what if there was more to it?
The combination of the Iron Knight and the Butterfly Shortsword held endless possibilities. If these two cards were brought together again...
"My turn, draw."
Youxuan said.
"First, I'll place a card face-down on the field.
Then, I'll activate the Magic Card 'Life-Trimming Treasure Card.' I'll draw until I have five cards in my hand."
Youxuan quickly drew five cards, his expression turning serious.
"However, due to the turn count, I'll have to discard all five cards in my hand during the preparation phase of the fifth turn."
Yeah, the key to using 'Life-Trimming Treasure Card' is to emphasize the significant risk, otherwise, it lacks soul.
"Next, I'll activate the face-down card on the field." Youxuan continued, "Trap Card 'Weapon Summon'!
I can add an Equip Card from my Deck to my hand, and if there's a monster on the field that meets the equip requirements, I can equip that card directly to a monster on the field."
Yeshen's eyes widened. "Damn, I knew something was off!"
He had a hunch that something was amiss.
"The Equip Card I'll be searching for is this."
Youxuan smiled and drew a card from his Deck.
"I'll add the Equip Magic 'Butterfly Shortsword - Echo' to my hand."
Jou exclaimed, "Oh, Echo Unit 2! This completes the infinite loop components again!"
Hai Ma remained silent, but he was inwardly amazed. After the previous loop was broken, Youxuan had so casually completed the conditions for another loop.
It wasn't an exaggeration; Youxuan's infinite loop really did seem like a casual, effortless action.
Yeshen gritted his teeth and sneered, "So what if you complete another loop? If it's just the Iron Knight and the Butterfly Shortsword, it's nothing but a meaningless cycle."
He narrowed his eyes and spoke in a low, serious tone.
"In a Duel, using a meaningless loop to indefinitely prolong the game results in a direct disqualification."
"Meaningless?"
Youxuan chuckled.
"Nothing I do is meaningless, you'll see soon enough...
Next, I'll Normal Summon 'Blaze Maiden.'"
A burst of flames erupted on the ground, forming a humanoid figure. Her long silver hair seemed to be burning, and her fiery red robe was aflame. In her hand, a golden staff also burned with fiery energy.
[Blaze Maiden, Defense 1300]
"Blaze Maiden, huh." Jou, who knew Youxuan best, seemed to have an idea of what was coming. He watched with a grin, "Looks like things are about to get interesting again."
"Next, I'll activate the Continuous Magic 'Magic Absorption'!" Youxuan said, "As long as 'Magic Absorption' is on the field, I recover 500 Life Points every time a Magic Card is activated!"
Yeshen's frown deepened for a moment before his expression changed abruptly.
"Blaze Maiden, right, this guy's effect is..."
He seemed to remember.
Blaze Maiden's effect is to deal 500 damage to the opponent every time the player recovers Life Points.
'Magic Absorption' recovers 500 Life Points every time a Magic Card is activated.
Then, 'Butterfly Shortsword - Echo' is activated, equipped to the Iron Knight, and self-destructs, automatically recycling.
After an infinite loop, Youxuan would have infinite Life Points, while simultaneously dealing infinite effect damage to the opponent!
Yeshen's lips twitched.
This damn thing. He actually made this meaningless loop meaningful again in just one turn.
No way.
Is an infinite loop really that easy to pull off?
Why can you effortlessly have so many different loop variations?
"Wow, Youxuan, as soon as one loop is broken, you immediately have a new one", Jou said, genuinely impressed.
You Bei frowned. "You have quite a few tricks up your sleeve."
"Hehe, what can I say?" Jou laughed. "Youxuan is the best!"
Haima also narrowed his eyes.
This time, the opponent's field had no cover cards. There were only two Yeshens on the field, and while both the Root of Fear and the Divine Incarnate were virtually invincible in direct combat, they had no way to deal with such underhanded tactics.
Is this the end for Yeshen?
But at this moment, Youxuan's loop had already begun.
"Activate the Equip Magic Card, 'Butterfly Shortsword - Echo,'" Youxuan said. "Equip it to 'Iron Knight Kyafried.'"
Due to the activation of a Magic Card, the effect of 'Magic Absorption' kicks in, and I recover 500 Life Points. Then, after I recover, the effect of 'Blaze Maiden' deals 500 points of damage."
Yeshen's eyes turned fierce.
"No", Yeshen growled.
"We are gods, the Yeshens who bring boundless darkness to all the worlds. We won't be stopped by such tricks."
He roared and slammed a card from his hand.
"Trap Card, 'Typhoon'!"
Jou was surprised. "Activate a Trap Card from your hand?"
Haima frowned. "I see, you still have that move."
"Typhoon can be activated directly from the hand when there are no Magic or Trap Cards on your own field, but there are two or more Magic or Trap Cards on the opponent's field. This card can destroy one face-up Magic or Trap Card on the field!"
Youxuan nodded. "At the moment 'Butterfly Shortsword - Echo' is activated, I have both 'Butterfly Shortsword' and 'Magic Absorption' on my field."
Only at this moment did the conditions for activating 'Typhoon' from the hand meet.
Yeshen narrowed his eyes at Youxuan's backfield.
Although the core card of the infinite loop is the Butterfly Shortsword, destroying it would be meaningless. The Butterfly Shortsword, equipped to the Iron Knight, would return to Youxuan's hand even if it were destroyed.
So there was only one choice.
"Destroy the Continuous Magic Card, 'Magic Absorption'!"
The Typhoon swept across the field, overwhelming everything in its path. 'Magic Absorption' was caught in the center of the vortex, crushed by the immense pressure.
"Since 'Magic Absorption' was destroyed before its effect could resolve, as a Continuous Magic, its effect will not continue to resolve", Yeshen said coldly. "You didn't regain Life Points, so 'Blaze Maiden's' effect won't trigger, and I won't take effect damage."
Youxuan nodded. "But the Butterfly Shortsword was still activated, and the moment it was equipped to the Iron Knight, it automatically destroyed itself.
Then, due to the effect of the Butterfly Shortsword, when it is destroyed, it returns to the owner's hand."
Youxuan drew the Butterfly Shortsword from the graveyard and added it to his hand.
Yeshen grunted heavily. "Do as you please."
Without 'Magic Absorption,' the combination of healing and damage from 'Blaze Maiden' was no longer possible. Even if the Butterfly Shortsword could be infinitely recycled, it would only be a meaningless loop, losing its main threat.
"Breaking the loop again, impressive", Youxuan said with a smile.
"So... how about this next move?"
