Chapter 160: Semi-Finals!
With the referee Isano's order, the melee grouping process ended here. The elevators under all the contestants started at the same time, and they catapulted towards the top of the tower with a whoosh.
After a while, the four of them came to the top of the dueling tower one after another.
It's the same schedule as in the anime. There was not much rest time from the group stage to the first game of the semi-finals, and the players in the first game only had about ten minutes to adjust.
Players can choose to use these ten minutes to make final deck tactical adjustments according to the opponents drawn, or they can choose to interact with the opposing players "friendly", greet each other's families or something, and warm up the scene for the upcoming duel.
You Yu has actually adjusted the card deck a long time ago, and now he only needs to check it one last time. Because of the reason for understanding the plot of the animation, You Yu has long known that Seahorse will use melee to decide the opponent, and naturally it is easy to predict that his first opponent will be Malik, so the card deck has already been adjusted.
As the so-called high risk and high reward, although there is a risk of GG in the dark game if he loses to Malik, from the perspective of promotion, the top four will have a slightly greater chance of his promotion.
In the animation, Malik is so arrogant and relies on off-board moves, as well as the sun god's winged dragon effect, and the key is that no one else knows the specific effect except him.
However, You Yu did not have this problem, and he knew clearly what the effects of the Winged Divine Dragon were.
Regardless of the outside moves, just looking at the level of the duel, in the animation, in the strict sense, Malik and Sister Wu can't win the fight with the city, and You Yu feels that he should have a good chance.
At this time, the onlookers also came up from the passenger elevator to the top of the tower. Chengnai and a group of friends came up and began to shout: "Come on, You Yu!" β
Sister Shizuka blushed: "Come on You Yusan~"
However, none of them worked hard as Xuelang and Miss Yuehua: "You Yusang! Kill that dead pervert with your invincible elemental hero Ora! β
Although I don't know why, it seems that all of a sudden everyone has become You Yu's fans and cheerleaders, which is in stark contrast to the lonely six-year-old standing with his arms crossed opposite.
Even Malik's own sister's elbow was turned out.
At this time, Isis also came to the top of the tower, and solemnly bowed to You Yu: "My brother Malik...... Please. Destroy the evil thoughts in his heart. β
You Yu nodded: "Well, I will do my best." β
President Haima is so arrogant, of course, he won't express his departure as clearly as everyone else. However, he stood aside with his arms crossed, still pretending to be careless and reminding: "'The Winged Dragon of the Sun God', its power is far beyond your imagination.
Don't be careless. After winning the game, my next target is you. I'll be waiting for you in the final, don't let me down. β
There is a reason why the president reminded me of this. After all, he was the man who interpreted the effect of the Pterodactyl card on Malik's dueling plate through satellite aerial photography......
What the? You say he's cheating by peeping like this?
What about the organizers of the contest...... Can that be called cheating?
If you don't believe me, ask the referee on the stage to see if he thinks it's a requirement.
Then Isono Yasei may say: This competition uses the special dueling rules of the Seahorse Company! Spy on the duel disc with a satellite...... It's not cheating! (If you can afford a satellite)
The lonely six-year-old stood alone opposite everyone, holding a thousand-year-old tin staff and holding his arm, smiling hehehehe.
To be honest, he didn't take You Yu to heart at all.
Although the six-year-old is not good at poker, he is very addicted to cards, and he is inexplicably confident that he is particularly good.
He felt that Gurus had been deflated by You Yu until now, entirely because of his cousin's personality. His current mentality is a bit like the barrage god who watched the whole process, and felt that "if I were replaced, I would have been killed a long time ago."
After all, from his point of view, You Yu has no artifact or background, and he is not the reincarnation of a big man, but just a mortal.
Then he Malik is not a random killing?
"The first game of the semi-finals," the referee Isano, who is accustomed to seeing big scenes, waved his hand, "You Yu vs. Malik, start!" β
γYu You, LP 4000γ
Malik, LP 4000
"It's me who strikes first, draw cards." The duel began on Malik's side.
Malik came up and performed a wave of Yanyi first, then laughed vaguely, and without saying a word, took out a thousand-year-old tin staff from the fourth-dimensional chrysanthemum.
"Come on! The dark game of risking the lives of both sides has begun! Hahahaha! β
The darkness was released, and the pitch-black realm instantly swept the entire field, enveloping the two people in the battle and the entire field.
The powerful pressure came immediately, and the oppression was overwhelming. The realm was surrounded like a sphere, and in the darkness around it, there seemed to be countless unjust spirits shuttling back and forth.
"Master!"
The Black Wizard Girl appeared in time to relieve You Yu's pressure.
At the same time, You Yu could also feel another power released from the card deck in his hand - a power that was even more powerful than the black magic girl, as if forming a force field that was like nothing to protect him in the middle.
There is no doubt that it was Osiris in his deck who was also protecting him.
This is also one of the reasons why You Yu dared to accept Malik's dark game challenge.
As long as there are means to check and balance the opponent's off-board moves, and everyone plays cards in a proper manner, then there are plays.
"Hehe, you'll soon find out what this is for."
Malik said as he pulled out a card, licked the back of the card that appeared to be coated with poison with his tongue, and said, "I'm going to summon this guy this round - a fast-attacking vampire maggot!" β
A disgusting, wriggling giant maggot appeared on Malik's field, its red tentacles flickering around it.
γAttack Vampire Maggot, Attack Power 500γ
"Hey, the Rush Vampire Maggot has a special effect that can be attacked in the first round." Malik's eyes turned white and he waved his arm, "Go, vampire maggots!" Direct attack on Yuyu! (Animation card)
The vampire maggot flew out, and its sharp teeth bit on You Yu's arm.
Even though it was only 500 damage, the intense pain hit violently. A scalp-tinging impact that temporarily lost sensation in the arm. You Yu felt that he stumbled under his feet, and his breathing in his chest was unconsciously interrupted for a moment.
γYu You, LP 4000β LP 3500γ
It should be said that it is indeed worthy of the power of a thousand-year-old artifact. Although Dark Malik is not good at playing cards, his dark power level is really powerful, and he is not at the same level as ordinary dark duelists at all.
"Hahahaha! Watch your own right hand! β
You Yu turned his head sideways, and a small part of his arm ...... Disappeared out of thin air!
Although it doesn't affect the movement of the hand at all, it really looks like the arm has been broken, and the picture is very weird.
"Hey, the rules of this dark game are that if you are damaged by LP in this game, a part of your body will be consumed by darkness accordingly." Malik sneered, "The person who zeros in LP will be buried in the darkness from head to toe, and there will not be even bones left. β
You Yu was mentally prepared and was not frightened, but his elf was a little frightened.
"Lord...... The host ...... "The black wizard girl was full of worry.
"It's okay." You Yu waved his hand and turned to Malik, "Okay, stop talking nonsense, are you done?" β
"Hmph."
Malik was a little upset that his intimidation didn't have the desired effect - he had expected You Yu to be scared to pee when he saw this scene.
But he still has a lot of opportunities.
"I'll cover a card. Then, at the end of the phase, activate the aftermath of 'Rush Vampire Maggot'. This card can be represented by discarding a card in your hand and switching to Garrison. β
Malik discarded a card from his hand, and the disgusting maggot crouched down and switched to defense.
[Attack Vampire Maggot, Garrison 1200]
You Yu looked at the card that Malik threw into the cemetery and narrowed his eyes.
As you can see from the animation, Dark Malik's tactics are completely different from Table Malik's. In the anime, Dark Malik doesn't intend to gather the three sacrifices to summon the sun god honestly, he always tries to throw the sun god to the graveyard first, and then uses the "resurrection of the dead" to pull the dead back from the graveyard to the field to carry out a kill.
So there is a high probability that the card he threw down from the graveyard now is the "Winged Dragon of the Sun God".
"Alright, now my turn is over." Malik lowered his arm, "Come on, it's your turn now." Try to make me as pleasant as you can, hehehehe......"
As he spoke, he took out another thousand-year-old tin staff and licked it with his tongue.
You Yu couldn't help but think, this thing sticks out his tongue and licks everywhere at every turn, is he really not afraid of licking something that shouldn't be licked one day......
