#439 - Count new cards

Mesozoic Fossil Machine, a card that can exclude itself from the graveyard to destroy 1 Spell/Trap card on the field.

Generally speaking, its use is similar to that of Old Entity N'tss.

But the difference between it and Old Entity N'tss is that Old Entity N'tss activates when sent to the graveyard, and cannot activate if it is not sent there. Skull Wagon, on the other hand, can activate its effect as long as it is in the graveyard.

Of course, as a 'cost', the Wagon can only destroy Spell/Trap cards.

The former has a wide range of destruction, while the latter can choose when to activate at any time. For Tenjo Hikari, both have their advantages and disadvantages—more importantly, it gives Tenjo Hikari another option.

Sometimes, choices are more important than effort.

Sometimes, a good choice may change the entire situation.

For Tenjo Hikari, having one more option is a good thing no matter what.

Besides Mesozoic Fossil Machine, Tenjo Hikari also studied the deck for a while.

With his current level of alchemy, coupled with his increasingly better control over Super Polymerization, he gains more and more energy from duels every day. After each duel, he can basically check what strange things have been added to his deck.

However, during this period, because the opponents are all powerful duelists who can participate in the duel, each duelist has their own wonderful tricks, and each duelist has their own characteristics. Therefore, the cards Tenjo Hikari obtained by collecting energy during this period are very 'scattered'.

However, after today's duel, because that 'Tyrant Neptune' indeed has extraordinary supernatural power, Tenjo Hikari obtained a large amount of duel energy. So, in all likelihood, the cards that Super Polymerization is preparing to create for him during this period should all appear in his hand.

He rummaged for a while, and before looking for his new cards, he suddenly paused.

"Eh—Adoration! ?"

At some point, a Vision HERO Adoration was added to his deck!

The Vision HERO did not reply. The card lit up and flashed at Tenjo Hikari twice.

At some point, this Vision HERO had sneaked into Tenjo Hikari's deck.

Tenjo Hikari flipped through the deck and even found two other Vision HERO lower-level monsters.

The Vision HEROes didn't seem to be interested in talking, or maybe they were shy. In short, they just went silent after flashing the light.

"Ha—thanks for the support." Tenjo Hikari couldn't help but laugh twice. "I'll introduce you to my friends later."

After Tenjo Hikari finished speaking, he checked the deck again.

Then, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Heavy Armored Train Ironwolf?

Tenjo Hikari recalled.

This card should have lit up in the deck after the duel with Anshiel. At that time, it was just flashing, and Tenjo Hikari didn't know what it was specifically. He didn't expect it to be this card.

Ironwolf is a Level 5 LIGHT Machine-Type monster. The Fusion Material is Machine-Type and Dragon-Type monsters. For Tenjo Hikari's deck, the Fusion Material is quite lenient, and it does not have the restriction of 'can only be Fusion Summoned' or 'can only be Special Summoned from the Extra Deck by Fusion Summon', so it can be easily pulled out with Instant Fusion or Unexpected Dai.

And its main effect is also very simple, that is, if this card is destroyed and sent to the graveyard, target 1 card on the field and destroy that card.

If Tenjo Hikari had this card when he was dueling Anshiel, he wouldn't need to use the Quick-Play Spell Fusion Release to undo the Fusion of Prismatic Lens to avoid Skill Drain, and then destroy Skill Drain.

Because this card summoned by Instant Fusion would be destroyed at the end of the turn, and because it activates its effect in the graveyard, it can directly destroy Skill Drain.

Besides that, the Fusion Material of this card is also very wide. For Tenjo Hikari, who is full of Machine-Type lower-level monsters and a large number of Dragon-Type Fusion Monsters, it can almost be summoned at any time.

It is obviously a good choice to use it to clear the field when necessary—after all, Old Entity N'tss cannot be brought out with Instant Fusion.

"Dueling with Vision HEROes and getting the support of Vision HEROes; dueling with Anshiel, who uses Skill Drain, and getting Ironwolf, which can directly destroy cards on the field; dueling with Jim and directly getting the Wagon that can activate its effect in the graveyard and can also fuse with the opponent's graveyard—"

The more Tenjo Hikari spoke, the brighter his eyes became.

Any duelist who participates in the finals, even if they are eliminated, definitely has their own understanding of dueling. Dueling with such duelists, fusing the opponent's power and beliefs, the cards obtained and the spirits attracted almost completely correspond to the corresponding opponent.

That means that in the next duel, no matter who he faces, Tenjo Hikari should be able to harvest very cool 'gifts'!

At this time, Tenjo Hikari couldn't help but miss the format before he transmigrated.

If this was a Swiss round, and he played a round with each duelist, the duel energy would definitely be collected like flying.

But—

He thought about the intensity of dueling in this world and the consumption of physical strength, and quickly shook his head.

Playing cards in this world is very physically demanding. Even if he is in good shape now, he might collapse if he duels persistently with eight duelists of similar strength.

Tenjo Hikari stopped his random thoughts. He put away the cards and moved his body slightly.

Next is the last round of the resurrection match, a 'resurrection match' that is no less than another round of the finals, selecting one last 'Top 8' qualification from a dozen people...

Only at this time did Tenjo Hikari have to sigh that dueling in this world is so cruel.

However, accordingly, during the resurrection match, Tenjo Hikari and the current Top 8 players can also take a good rest and ease their tense spirits.

While he put down his thoughts and prepared to ease his tense spirit, there were still people who were persistently training.

"Draw card—draw card—draw card—"

In the training ground, a blonde girl was frantically training to draw cards like a robot. Her movements were very messy and chaotic, and she didn't seem to be able to calm down at all.

"Gloria, take a break." The silver-haired twin sister, Grace, walked to her side with a towel in her hand, looking worried, and said to her, "Your mind is messed up..."

As twin sisters who understand each other the most, she didn't even have the mind to tease her sister, which shows how worried she was about Gloria.

Gloria did not refuse her sister. She let go, her eyes were a little dazed, and she almost fell, but even so, the cards in her hand did not scatter on the ground.

She stood firm, shook her head, put away the cards, took the towel, and wiped her sweat.

"Grace, I can't stop. This is my last chance. Only by defeating everyone can I have a chance to return to the finals! Moreover, this is an excellent opportunity, and in this way, I can directly duel with Tenjo Hikari."

"But sister, what are you working so hard for?"

"Of course it's for battle!" Gloria didn't think about Grace's words at all, her face only showing excited bloodthirst. "Dueling with him makes people feel excited. That kind of battle, that kind of fight, is a truly interesting duel!"

Grace gently supported her forehead with her hand and sighed non-stop: "That's why I'm worried about you."
