Chapter 5: The Assassin Reappears
As Li Bai said, JOKER no longer had any room to operate, and she ended her round.
"Although this is indeed the case, at this moment, the effect of the Light Path Dragon is activated, and three cards from the deck continue to be sent to the graveyard."
JOKER DIDN'T REGRET IT TOO MUCH, SHE HAD CALMED DOWN FROM HER PREVIOUS ANXIOUS LOVE.
Not being able to kill her opponent at once is nothing, and she has a solid advantage in the current situation.
I don't need to pay too much attention to what she says...... As long as you suppress the scene, you can win, she told herself.
But this crazy gamble wasn't without results.
Li Bai's field was empty, which meant that she couldn't provide the sacrifices that the Light Dao Dragon needed, and other monsters that could turn the situation around should also need sacrifices, and if she couldn't call out those trump cards, her counterattack would only become a joke.
Three cards were sent to the graveyard, namely the Light Path Elf - Charles, the Light Path Warrior - Garros, and the Light Path Magician Lila.
[Light Path Dragon-Gragunis] Attack Power: 3200β4100
"Cut...... If she had the current grave pile, she would have died a long time ago. "HATE THAT THESE CARDS HAVEN'T APPEARED UNTIL NOW, AND JOKER'S MOOD IS STILL NOT MUCH BETTER, WHICH IS CAUSED BY THE FEELING OF DISPARITY.
"To my turn." Seeing that the round of JOKER was really over, Li Bai couldn't wait to draw the cards from the deck.
She gambled with her life.
Now, it's time for her to reap the chips.
"I cast my magic from my handβthe feathers of the Phoenix God." Li Bai inserted the card face up into the magic trap card slot.
"The effect of this card is to discard a card in your hand and then return to the top of the deck with a card from your graveyard."
Li Bai first picked out a card from her hand and sent it to the cemetery, and then another card popped out of the depression of the cemetery, which she held in her hand.
Is her brain broken? JOKER DIDN'T EXPECT HER TO ACTIVATE THIS CARD.
If she doesn't crack my two monsters in this turn, she'll lose outright...... How can you put your hopes on the gacha of the next round at this time? β
ββ¦β¦ The card I chose was Wolf the Lightpath Beast. β
"Light Path Beast Wolfe? Are you trying to use the effects of other Lightpath cards to drag it out again in the end phase? JOKER LOOKED SURPRISED.
"But it didn't work, Gragunis had a penetrating effect...... No matter how much you defend, it won't work! β
"Who told you that I'm going to defend?"
Li Bai frowned, a little tired of this despised minion daring to point fingers at him.
"Can you attack without defense?" JOKER SNEERED, "YOU DON'T HAVE A SACRIFICE, YOU CAN'T CALL YOUR TRUMP CARD LIGHT PATH DRAGON, AND EVEN IF YOU CALL OUT, ITS ATTACK POWER MAY NOT BE COMPARABLE TO MY 'COPY'." β
"You're too big...... Li bai. In the last round, it ended like that without any deployment...... Now you're going to pay for it! JOKER SAID AS HE LOOKED AT HER HATEFULLY.
I'm going to see if you can look at me like that again the moment you fail!
"Don't try to guess what I think with your rigid mind...... Of course I'm going to attack, you idiot! The girl took out a card from her hand again and inserted it into the slot, "It's not just an offense...... I said that, right? I'll show you what's on the other side of light! β
"Cast the magic, and the dead will be brought to life!" A card appeared in the groove of the graveyard again, and she picked it up and slapped it directly on the dueling plate: "Lila, the magician of the light path in my graveyard!" β
"Then activate Lila's effect...... Destroy that gaika in your backcourt. She pointed to the fold that had been covered earlier by JOKER along with the Wild Tornado.
According to the rules of Duel City, each person can only cover one spell and one trap on their turn...... JOKER IS ANOTHER OF THE TWO CARDS COVERED AT THE SAME TIME IS A BIG TORNADO IN THE TRAP WILDERNESS, SO THIS MUST BE JUST A MAGIC CARD, AND IT USUALLY DOESN'T POSE ANY THREAT, BUT FOR THE SAKE OF INSURANCE, LI BAI STILL CHOSE TO BLOW IT UP.
"Alright...... The pit that might have stored zΓ i was removed, and the offerings were gathered. β
"JOKER, ARE YOU READY FOR DEFEAT?"
THE GIRL PLAYED WITH A STRAND OF SNOW-WHITE HAIR THAT FELL TO HER CHEST, AND ASKED WITHOUT ARROGANCE, LOOKING AT JOKER WITH ANOTHER LAYER OF PITY IN HER EYES.
In her opinion, victory was already doomed.
This duel city,The introduction of the most widely used international competition rules,In a certain way, it is the weakening of the light path dragon,Although its level is not high only 6 stars,But the need for 1 sacrifice is more troublesome than the original direct summoning,In some extreme cases,Many duelists can't even get together 1 sacrifice - everything will be killed by the other party in seconds,But everything has two sides.,Another high-level light path card that only has a tabula rasa function in the duelist kingdom, It was liberated by the introduction of new rules, and its power even surpassed that of the Light Dao Dragon in a certain way.
"Hey, hey!" LI BAI SNEERED, AND WITHOUT WAITING FOR JOKER TO RESPOND TO HER INQUIRY, SHE PICKED OUT ANOTHER CARD FROM HER HAND.
"I offer Lila as a sacrifice ......"
The female magician stood on her chest with her wand in her hands, reverently reciting an unknown hymn, a spiral of air around her body, characteristic of her chosen sacrifice when she was summoned by her superiors.
"It's time to pass the decree of heaven to those sinners...... Li Bai gently pressed the card on the dueling plate.
Lila's figure vanished as particles of light, replaced by three spherical balls of white thunder, which chirped and spontaneously formed a triangular opposition before spreading and bursting in the eyes of the two awake spectators.
"Come out, cherubim! I need you to be true to me! β
β¦β¦ The white light dissipated.
WHEN JOKER OPENED HER EYES, SHE SAW AN INCREDIBLE SCENE.
There was no doubt that it was an angel...... An angel with long light blue hair and a white gold armor dress, she has a pair of wide wings, no smaller than the wings of the Light Path Dragon, if only proportionally; He holds a long-handled scepter in his hand, and also has runes that are unique to the Light Path Monster.
The runes of the Angel of Light differed from all other of its kind, not in the shape of a diamond, but in the form of a larger triangle of three equilateral triangles, which emitted a crimson glow and was hidden under the feet of its master.
[Angel of Light - Cherubim] Attack Power: 2300
"It's ...... THE ONLY KNOWN LIGHT PATH MONSTER THAT HASN'T BEEN INVESTIGATED......" JOKER LOOKED AT CHERUBIM WITH SURPRISE AS SHE REMEMBERED WHAT THE GIRL HAD SAID EARLIER, AND A DEEP UNEASINESS BEGAN TO BREW IN HER HEART.
"I'll activate the cherubim's special ability......" Li Bai stretched out two fingers and posed in a "V" shape, pointing at the Light Path Dragon and Light Path Beast on the opposite side respectively.
"Cherubim can choose two cards from the opponent's field to destroy at the cost of sending 4 cards from the top of the deck to the graveyard!"
"What did you say!?" AN EXCLAMATION CAME OUT OF JOKER'S MOUTH, AND HER OMINOUS FEELING WAS FULFILLED.
The opponent has just replaced Wolf at the top of the deck, if this effect works......
"Yes, you're right! Wolf will use this effect to return to the battlefield! The girl sent four cards to the graveyard and took one of them back to the dueling plate.
Wolf's figure reappeared, stomping on the platinum runes and letting out a roar of excitement.
Actually controlled the Light Dao Beast so lightly......
JOKER SOMEWHAT UNDERSTOOD LI BAI'S PREVIOUS EVALUATION OF HER.
She did completely lose to the enemy strategically, and even with the replica of the Light Path card, she didn't think of defeating the girl directly in the round just now - the duel in her bones was still an ordinary gun-to-sword exchange.
If it weren't for the girl deliberately provoking her and reminding her, she would never have been so fierce just now.
"Light is not just peaceful, warm...... The moment it condenses to the extreme and then explodes, it is its most powerful moment. Li Bai looked at the black-robed girl lightly, the scepter in the hand of the Angel of Light waved, and the three runes on the soles of her feet turned into three white thunders again, surrounding her back; Two white thunderbolts as slender as snakes flowed out of it, and in just an instant, they shattered the bodies of the Light Path Dragon and the Light Path Beast, breaking them into fragments of light particles.
"Cherubim's attack power is 2300, and Wolf's is 2100...... Even if your current LP is still worth 4,000 points, it will be directly emptied in front of this round of attacks. β
"The result is already doomed, huh? JOKERοΌ β
That's what it is...... What is my destiny ......?
Am I destined not to be able to defeat her...... Doomed...... Just a minion? Is it the annoying rat ...... in her eyes?
JOKER WATCHED AS THE WHITE-HAIRED GIRL RAISED HER RIGHT HAND, AND HER GRACEFUL POSTURE LOOKED LIKE A CONDUCTOR CONDUCTING AN ORCHESTRA.
As long as that arm goes down, I'm going to lose the game.
Watching the hand rise higher and higher, she hung her head numbly.
There's no hope left.
The field was empty and became herself, and in the face of an instantaneous upside-down situation, even God was powerless to return to the sky.
JOKER CLOSED HIS EYES, READY TO WAIT FOR THE FINAL VERDICT.
I...... Lost.
Li Bai seemed to be too excited, although her movement of raising her hand looked beautiful but she forgot to stop, the inertia brought up by her right arm forced her to lean back, she hurriedly raised her leg back to stabilize her body, but her right foot stepped on a hard protrusion again, and the amplitude of the leaning back not only did not stop but increased.
Strange sensations came.
"How...... What's going on......? β
Time seemed to have been slowed down countless times, and the girl slowly turned her head, looking at the arm that originally belonged to her in confusion, but she didn't know when she left her shoulder.
It floated in the air like a branch, and blood continued to gush out from the fracture, pulling a line of blood with the force of the fluttering.
The force of the bullet was more than that, her body was pulled by this force and lost its balance, and it hit the ground hard, blood gushed out from the base of her shoulder, and the girl couldn't help but wail, and it was only then that the sharp pain finally reached her brain.
This power and speed......
It's a large-caliber sniper rifle.
Without the time to deal with this terrifying wound, Li Bai quickly trembled and rolled and hid behind the support pillar not far away, this was to avoid the next sniper.
Quickly reliving her hostile forces and the causes and consequences of this duel, she quickly understood that this attack should be the real purpose of the enemy.
They were no longer satisfied with defeating her, but wanted her to die.
If it weren't for the unexpected tilt that caused her head to drift away, she would have blossomed by now, and she couldn't die anymore.
"So...... Shameful behavior......" She trembled and turned her dusty face and stared at the black-robed girl, "how can you ...... ......"
"You filthy, damned ......"
"Don't look at me...... I...... I do not know...... I DIDN'T KNOW IF IT WOULD ......BE LIKE THIS," JOKER SHOOK HER HEAD, STEPPED BACK TO THE PILLAR BEHIND HER, AND SLOWLY SAT ON THE GROUND AGAINST IT, SHE WAS COMPLETELY FRIGHTENED BY THE SUDDEN SNIPER, AND SHE COULDN'T EVEN SPEAK CLEARLY, JUST STUPIDLY LOOKED AT THE HORRIFIC WOUND ON THE GIRL'S RIGHT SHOULDER.
She knew she shouldn't, it would only make her fear worse, but the mass of flesh seemed to have a magical power that drew her in, keeping her eyes from looking off it.
Aside from the identity of Gurus, she is just a girl who has never seen blood.
That's what the chief is talking about?
A vibration came from the ground where the two were sitting.
Li Bai didn't have any blood on her face, she first contained the cards scattered on the ground into the expanded system package, and then bent down, and used her hands and teeth to tear off a few strips of white yarn from her skirt and wrap the wound on her arm indiscriminately, she didn't know if it was useful, but if she didn't do something, she was afraid that she would faint from this pain.
The shaking became more and more violent, and a large amount of cement lime fell from the ceiling and walls, and gradually both of them felt that something was wrong...... This kind of high-rise building is deliberately designed with a shock-absorbing structure when it is built, is it possible for an ordinary earthquake to cause this situation?
"They...... They actually want to bring down this building? AS SOON AS SHE FINISHED HER GUESS, JOKER NOTICED THAT THE GROUND UNDER HER ASS WAS TILTING, AND SHE DIDN'T NOTICE A SLIGHT CLICK ABOVE HER HEAD.
Li Bai endured the pain and ran over and kicked her in the stomach, and then the next second, the pillar that the black-robed girl was leaning on just now broke into two, and a large amount of dust and stones smashed into the position where she was just now.
"Don't be in a daze, idiot! Take my arm! Then climb back! THE GIRL'S KICK WAS JUST RIGHT TO SEND JOKER TO THE POINT WHERE HER BROKEN ARM LANDED, AND JOKER CAME TO HER SENSES, AND WITH SOME TREMBLING HELD THE ARM THAT MADE HER SICK TO HER STOMACH, AND THEN SHE CRAWLED TO THE GIRL'S SIDE LIKE CRAZY, AND LEANED WITH HER ON THE HALF-HALF SUPPORT PILLAR.
Li Bai took advantage of this time to drag the half-dead city over again, and the angle of the floor tilt became larger and larger, and they had to rely on this broken pillar to survive.
It's always easier to destroy than to build.
The office building, which took more than half a year to build, quickly collapsed like a building block that had been knocked down, knocking down many surrounding shops and turning into ruins.
