Chapter 847: Cloud Beast
Chapter 847: Cloud Beast
A strike from Cloud pierced Saga's chest, leaving a gaping hole with electricity crackling around it. Saga turned to You Xuan with a sullen look, indicating that he had tried his best, before exploding into a cloud of dust.
[You Xuan, LP 4000 → LP 2400]
Saga, once again a ghost, floated to the back with a dark expression.
His good friend, Evil Emperor, immediately spoke up with a cheerful smile.
"Hey, you're back so soon?"
Saga: "Shut up."
". "
Amon: "I set a card, and my turn ends!"
"So this is the power of your Cloud Beast, huh. It's not too bad." You Xuan patted the dust off his body, "I guess I can't be too careless on my side either.
My turn, draw."
After glancing at the drawn card, You Xuan directly summoned it to the Duel Disk.
"I summon 'Dark Forest Witch'."
A black-robed witch appeared on the field, her hands crossed in front of her chest, eyes closed as if in prayer.
[Dark Forest Witch, ATK 1100]
"Then, I activate the Equip Spell 'Magic Wand of Wonder'." You Xuan explained, "This card can be equipped to a Spellcaster-Type monster, increasing its ATK by 500 points.
I equip the wand to 'Dark Forest Witch'."
A staff adorned with a green gem appeared in the black-robed witch's hands, and a pale green stream of magical energy flowed into her body.
[Dark Forest Witch, ATK 1100 → ATK 1600]
"Now, the wand's second effect activates." You Xuan continued, "By sending the equipped monster and the Equip Card to the Graveyard, I can draw two cards from my deck.
I send 'Dark Forest Witch' to the Graveyard and draw two cards."
You Xuan drew two cards. However, the witch's shadow immediately appeared behind him, floating like a ghost with her eyes closed, but her mouth seemed to be reciting some sort of incantation.
"Dark Forest Witch's effect." You Xuan explained, "When the witch is sent to the Graveyard, I can search my deck for a monster with 1500 or less DEF and add it to my hand."
You Xuan's Duel Disk automatically searched, and he drew the card that was selected from his deck. After the card was drawn, the deck automatically shuffled itself on the Duel Disk.
You Xuan paused, glanced at Amon's Duel Disk, and then chuckled lightly.
"As the young master of the Gallum Corporation, it seems like Mr. Gallum is still using the traditional model of the Duel Disk."
You Xuan gestured to his own Duel Disk.
"Look, this is the latest model. The top-tier model from the Kaiba Corporation now has automatic search and shuffle functions, freeing your hands and making duels more relaxed and pure.
Why not consider getting one?"
Amon was taken aback.
Why the sudden sales pitch? However, he hummed in response.
"Thank you for the offer, but I'll pass. After all, a duelist's strength doesn't depend on their Duel Disk. No matter how many functions or bells and whistles it has, it won't help you win duels."
He coldly crossed his arms.
"My current Duel Disk is just fine."
"Is that so?" You Xuan shrugged, "That's a shame. But in fact, there is quite a difference in the practical use of Duel Disks, but you may not have noticed it yet.
But it's no problem."
He paused and smiled with ill intent, speaking in a low voice.
"I'll make you realize it."
Amon: ". "
He didn't respond, but at this moment, facing the Duel King's chilling smile, he suddenly had a foreboding sense that something terrifying might happen in this duel.
"From my deck, I add the 1000 DEF 'True Silent Magician' to my hand."
You Xuan drew and revealed the Silent Magician.
"Then, the effect of 'Trickmaster' in my hand." You Xuan explained, "Trickmaster can discard a card from the hand to Special Summon itself.
You Xuan discarded a card from his hand.
"Special Summon, Trickmaster!"
A magician with a question mark on his chest and a cloak appeared on the field, looking like a new skin for the Riddle Man.
[Trickmaster, ATK 2000]
Amon said, "Even so, this guy is no match for Cloudian - Cloudian - Rain Man."
"I know," You Xuan smiled, "but the True Silent Magician in my hand can't be Normal Summoned. However, it can be Special Summoned by tributing a Spellcaster-Type monster on the field."
"So, I tribute Trickmaster!"
With the silent hope of the wings, the Light Magician appeared on the field.
"True Silent Magician, Summon!"
The Trickmaster immediately turned into a point of light and disappeared, opening a white magic circle on the ground. In the radiant light of holiness, a white-robed wizard emerged, and the magic circle under his feet spread out like ripples in the air, as if he were walking on air.
[True Silent Magician, ATK 1000]
"The attack power of the True Silent Magician increases by 500 points for each card in my hand," You Xuan explained, "I have three cards left, so the attack power increases to 2500!"
[True Silent Magician, ATK 1000 → ATK 2500]
Amon: "Has its attack power caught up to Cloudian - Rain Man?"
Well, even so, most Cloudian monsters have the ability to "not be destroyed in battle."
Amon smirked inwardly.
If the opponent wanted to go down together, they would find that even with the same attack power, only the Silent Magician would die.
Looking at the cloud, you would see that it could change shape but was difficult to eliminate, possessing unparalleled resilience. Amon was such a person; from the ever-changing clouds, he seemed to see his own shadow.
"Battle!" You Xuan ordered, "Silent Magician, attack Cloudian - Cloudian - Rain Man!"
The Silent Magician did not hesitate to follow her master's command, even if it meant death. She flew forward, and the white light on her staff reached its peak, striking directly at the cloud-like figure that had formed on the opposite side.
Amon's mouth curled up in satisfaction.
So, Cloudian - Rain Man. Amon shouted, "Counterattack! Strike back!"
But just as the two were about to collide, You Xuan revealed another card from his hand.
"Quick-Play Spell, Silent Magic Explosion! When there is a Silent Magician on your field and you have more cards in your hand than your opponent, you can only activate this card during the Battle Phase.
Both players draw cards until they have six cards in their hands!"
Amon: "!"
Both players instantly replenished their hands to six cards. The ability of the Silent Magician is...
"Yes, the Silent Magician's attack power increases with the number of cards in your hand. So, if you draw six cards, the True Silent Magician's attack power rises to..."
[True Silent Magician, ATK 1000 → ATK 4000]
Attack power of 4000! Amon made a quick decision: "Then, activate my Set card! Trap Card, Storm Surge!"
He flipped his Set card, and the blue card illustration seemed to release a raging storm, engulfing his Cloudian - Cloudian - Rain Man on the field, like an overwhelming tsunami!
"Storm Surge must be activated by selecting a Cloudian monster on your field!" Amon shouted.
"By reducing the attack power of that monster by 1000 points, you can destroy one of your opponent's cards on the field!" (Original effect)
Amon pointed at the Silent Magician, who was charging forward with great force.
"Reduce Cloudian - Rain Man's attack power by 1000 points and destroy the Silent Magician!"
