Chapter 1014: Cooking This Thing
God's Evolution!
The moment this card was played, the atmosphere on the field shifted once again. A transparent black tornado swept across the field, and relentless dark lightning struck repeatedly. An invisible storm of darkness had enveloped Yeshen, accompanied by a series of eerie roars.
Jou and Kaiba's expressions both changed slightly.
They had already experienced a battle with Yeshen and were well aware of the existence of this card, so they were no longer unfamiliar with it.
This was a high-level magic card that could elevate a god's rank!
Although they didn't know where Yeshen had obtained this card, the power it brought was genuine. The Annihilator, who might have originally been a lower-tier god in the conflict between the Godlike Deity and Yeshen, would now have the potential to challenge the Winged Dragon of Ra if upgraded by God's Evolution.
Just as Atlum had once used God's Evolution to elevate the lower-tier Godlike Deity, enabling it to injure the highest-tier Yeshen·Divine Incarnate.
"Use God's Evolution to elevate the Annihilator's rank!"
A powerful storm of darkness enveloped the Annihilator, and its aura immediately surged to a whole new level. The Annihilator's eyes glowed with a red light as it lifted its head and let out a piercing roar. Its claws shattered the earth, and with the boost from its aura, its height seemed to increase significantly.
Previously, it had only dared to bow its head before the Winged Dragon of Ra, appearing much smaller in comparison. But now, it felt confident enough to stand tall and face the dragon head-on, without any fear.
[Yeshen·Annihilator, Attack Power 2000 → Attack Power 3000]
"Upon evolution, the Yeshen's Attack Power and Defense increase by 1000 points", Yeshen stated. "Now, let's battle! Use Yeshen·Annihilator to Attack the Winged Dragon of Ra!"
Even with the power boost, the Annihilator's Attack Power still fell short of the Winged Dragon of Ra's. However, no one on the field questioned this Attack order.
Because the evolved god possessed an absolute power that could not be countered or ignored!
"God's Evolution has granted the Annihilator a new ability!" Yeshen continued. "When Yeshen·Annihilator declares an Attack, the opponent must choose one monster on their field and send it to the Graveyard!"
It wasn't just that the Annihilator's god rank was now sufficient to injure the Winged Dragon of Ra; this effect was unrelated to rank or resistance. Even Kaiba's Ultimate Dragon, which had full resistance to player effects, couldn't withstand it.
At this moment, Youxuan only had one monster on the field: the Winged Dragon of Ra. Clearly, he had no other choice but to send the Godlike Deity to the Graveyard.
But then,
"At this moment, I discard 'Ankou Chestnut Ball' from my hand and activate its effect!"
The other two Yeshen remained calm, but Root of Fear's eyes twitched.
Chestnut Ball!?
He had just been outmaneuvered by Kaiba Seto's last-minute Chestnut Ball, and he was still dealing with the trauma.
But the Chestnut Ball family was known for their loyalty, and this time, it wasn't the same Chestnut Ball he had encountered earlier.
Youxuan explained, "Ankou Chestnut Ball can only be activated when the opponent declares an Attack. You can choose any monster in the Graveyard and Special Summon it to the field, but regardless of which monster is summoned, it must be sent back to the Graveyard at the end of the turn."
Clearly, this card was typically used for defense. By summoning a monster from the Graveyard to block an attack and then sending it back at the end of the turn, it allowed for temporary protection without keeping the summoned monster on the field long-term.
But the situation was different now.
"I revive 'Forest Witch' from the Graveyard to the field", Youxuan said with a smile.
The witch in a black robe slowly emerged from the vortex of the Graveyard, her eyes closed, and quietly took her place on the field.
[Forest Witch, Attack Power 1100]
Yeshen's expression changed slightly. "You're trying to use some low-level monster to replace Winged Dragon of Ra?"
"The effect that was activated later is processed first, so let's handle the effect of 'Ankou Chestnut Ball' first. I Special Summon Forest Witch from the Graveyard."
"Then we deal with the new effect of Annihilator. I must choose a monster on the field to send to the Graveyard."
Youxuan smiled slightly.
"The player effect is indeed unavoidable. Since it affects me as the Duelist, it doesn't matter if my monsters are gods or have absolute resistance; they can't resist."
"But at the same time, the downside is that the choice of which monster to send to the Graveyard is in the hands of the opposing player."
Youxuan pointed to the witch who had just returned to the field.
"I'll send 'Forest Witch' to the Graveyard."
Yeshen gritted his teeth, but as Youxuan said, he couldn't interfere with the target of the effect. If the only monster on the field had been Winged Dragon of Ra, he could have ensured its destruction, but with a low-level monster suddenly summoned to take the hit, they were helpless.
It wasn't over yet. As the Forest Witch was dragged back into the Graveyard by the Darkness released by Yeshen, a magical incantation exploded in mid-air, transforming into energy that shot into Youxuan's deck.
"At this moment, the Forest Witch's monster effect is activated", Youxuan said. "When the witch is sent to the Graveyard, I can add a monster with 1500 or less Defense from my deck to my hand. This effect has already been used in this Duel, but I don't think Yeshen has forgotten, right?"
Yeshen's face darkened.
So Youxuan drew the card automatically retrieved from his deck. "I add 'Silent Magician Zero' with 1000 Defense to my hand."
Jou praised, "Not only did you avoid sending Winged Dragon of Ra to the Graveyard, but you also used the opponent's effect to gain an additional deck search. That's impressive, Youxuan!"
Youxuan didn't even turn his head, but he waved his hand casually in Jou's direction, as if to say, "Calm down, it's just a basic move."
This simple gesture vividly reinforced his contempt for Yeshen and the others, giving the impression that dealing with them was merely a trivial task.
Naturally, this only made Yeshen and the others even angrier.
"The number of monsters on your field has changed, so the battle is reset", Yeshen said, suppressing his anger.
"I won't Attack."
Annihilator was in a panic. "Bro, I think I can take it down!"
At that moment, Annihilator felt more capable than ever. With the recent evolution, he was feeling quite inflated. He could launch a suicide attack, let Winged Dragon of Ra destroy him, and his dying words should be enough to drag Winged Dragon of Ra down with him.
A one-for-one trade with the highest-level Godlike Deity!
But the other two Yeshen just gave him a look of utter disdain.
Idiot.
We only have a thousand Life Points left. If you rush in like a fool, there won't be any chance for a one-for-one trade. We'll all be killed by Winged Dragon of Ra.
Divine Incarnate completely ignored him and played another card from his hand.
"Quick-Play Spell 'Mystical Chinese Wok.' Sacrifice one monster on the field to recover Life Points equal to its Attack or Defense."
Divine Incarnate pointed at Annihilator on the field without a hint of emotion.
"Sacrifice this idiot and gain Life Points equal to its Attack."
Annihilator: "???"
