Chapter 1112: The Abyss Duo Strikes Again
"Air Raid Style's effect!" Boma shouted, "I'll destroy your backfield Cover Card!"
As Boma sent a card to the Graveyard, the massive air raid robot surged forward, flying overhead toward Youxuan.
Its flight speed was actually quite fast, but its massive size made it seem slow and heavy. The giant mecha moved with the speed of a fighter jet, flying parallel to Youxuan's position, dropping bombs one after another. Explosions rocked Youxuan's backfield with a series of booms.
Boma narrowed his dark eyes, staring intently at the smoke from the explosions, as if hoping the physical manifestation of Darkness's power would be enough to knock Youxuan off the track.
Unfortunately, his hope was short-lived. In the blink of an eye, the D-Wheel burst through the smoke, with a Trap Card already activated beside it.
"Too bad, I activated my Cover Card", Youxuan said with a light laugh. "The Trap Card 'Pandora's Treasure.'
This card can be activated when a card in my Spell or Trap Zones becomes the target of an opponent's card effect.
I transfer the target to this card, then draw two cards from my Deck."
Youxuan drew two cards.
"Tch, you protected your backfield", Boma growled, his voice icy. "But at this moment, the continuous Trap 'Ride Along' activates.
Since you drew cards outside of the Draw Phase, I also draw two cards from my Deck."
Boma drew two cards.
"Ride Along your draw, indeed, a handy effect", Youxuan smiled.
After all, he used to like it too. In the world of the anime, there were plenty of ways to speed up drawing, and everyone had a variety of draw-recovery tools. In such an environment, Ride Along was quite useful.
However, he found it less effective in a Ride Duel. Most draw-recovery tools were Spell Cards, and in a Ride Duel, Spell Cards couldn't be used, reducing the number of draw-recovery options and thus diminishing Ride Along's utility.
"Then let's get straight to the battle!" Boma shouted. "Go!
Giant Bomber · Air Raid Style, attack 'Abyss Soldier'!"
The bomber closed in again, missiles trailing flames as they exploded along the track, fireballs chasing after the Abyss Soldier.
"Then I'll activate my Cover Card", Youxuan said.
"Continuous Trap 'Super Gravity Net.'
All Level 4 or higher monsters on both fields cannot attack!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The continuous bombardment of missiles exploded against the transparent gravity barrier, the fire and shrapnel contained within, causing no damage.
"What? Attack lockdown?" Boma's expression changed.
"The Duel has just begun, and you want to end it so soon?" Youxuan laughed.
Boma snorted coldly.
If conditions allowed, he would have loved to tear this detestable opponent to pieces within a single turn, rather than waste time playing games.
Boma: "I set one card, and my turn is over."
At that moment, more figures began to appear on the Duel field.
The first to arrive at the venue was Jack Atlas. Since moving to the city, his residence had been arranged by the Security Maintenance Bureau. And since Youxuan and Boma were dueling at the venue hosting the Lucky Cup, which was also a regular venue for the King to accept challenges from Duelists, his residence was intentionally placed nearby, allowing him to arrive quickly.
The red dragon mark on Jack's arm was glowing, and as he entered the arena, the light intensified to its peak. He clutched his arm, enduring the pain, and walked in just in time to see two D-Wheels speeding past him.
"Ride Duel? This is!?"
As everyone knows, the audience in Yu-Gi-Oh has eyesight of at least 5.0. The two D-Wheels sped by at high speed. Although he didn't recognize the rider on the monstrous, giant D-Wheel in front, he immediately recognized the person on the smaller D-Wheel behind it.
After all, it was the person who had been with him day and night since he came to the city.
"Godwin?" Jack was taken aback.
To be honest, Jack had been in the city for so long after accepting Godwin's invitation from the Satellite District, but this was the first time he had seen his superior personally engage in a duel. And it was a Ride Duel, which was even more surprising.
He didn't even know Godwin could ride a D-Wheel.
Although he didn't recognize the Duelist on the other side, he could sense a strong darkness from that giant D-Wheel. The dragon mark confirmed for him that this was the source of his unease; he didn't need to see the person to know that this was an extremely dangerous enemy.
Godwin is personally dueling an unknown enemy?
Jack found it hard to believe.
Youxuan: "Then it's my turn, draw."
He drew a card, and a golden light erupted from the Graveyard of his D-Wheel.
"During the Standby Phase, the effect of the Water-type monster discarded to the Graveyard by 'Abyss Soldier' activates."
Youxuan revealed the card that had been discarded from the Graveyard.
"The card discarded last turn was 'Killer Snake.'
When this card is in the Graveyard during the Standby Phase, it can be returned to the owner's hand." (Old effect)
Youxuan returned the Killer Snake to his hand.
"Then I'll activate 'Abyss Soldier's' effect again", Youxuan said. "Once per turn, discard a Water-type monster from your hand to return any card on the field to the owner's hand."
Boma was shocked: "Does that mean, as long as you have the snake, 'Abyss Soldier's' effect becomes cost-free!?"
"Indeed, the Dark Marked one understands quickly."
Youxuan smiled.
"Exactly. So, I'll discard the Water-type 'Killer Snake' from my hand again and return 'Giant Bomber · Air Raid Style' to my hand."
A green shadow of the Killer Snake flashed, its body transforming into pure water and flowing into the trident held by the Abyss Soldier. The Abyss Soldier swung the trident, and the water transformed into a vortex that shot towards Boma's massive mech.
Boma's face darkened.
The effect of the Giant Bomber was quite powerful.
Not only could it discard a card from the hand to destroy a card during the player's turn, but it could also destroy a monster or a face-down card during the opponent's turn, dealing 800 points of damage.
This kind of ace required a very high-quality hand and a significant investment of resources. Having such a powerful card returned to the hand was almost unbearable.
"Activate face-down card!" Boma shouted. "Trap Card 'Crossbow Corps'!
Sacrifice one monster on my field to destroy one card on the opponent's field!"
Rather than let the opponent return the card to their hand, he would use his own resources!
"I sacrifice 'Giant Bomber · Air Raid Style'!"
