Chapter 754: Kedien’s trap tactics!

Facing the four cover cards on Kedien's backcourt, he declared an attack without any hesitation, and the three-color gadget rushed into the opponent's field waving his fists.

I have to say, Wang Yang is still the same Wang Yang. Even after so many years, his dueling style has not changed at all!

"Huh, how reckless! Do you think I will let your attack pass easily?" While speaking, Kedien raised his hand and opened a cover card in his backcourt.

"Activate a Continuous Trap Card, Earth Statue with Bitter Pattern!" "The effect of this card is that after it is activated, it will be treated as an Effect Monster according to the game rules and can be Special Summoned in the Monster Zone (Rock-Type·Earth·7*·ATK 0/DEF 2500). Also, as long as there are Trap Cards other than this card that are used as monsters in the Monster Zone, this card Special Summoned by the effect of this card cannot be targeted by your opponent's effects."

"Now, I will Special Summon this card in Defense Position to my front field!"

Because a monster that can act as a shield appeared in Kedien's front field, the attack rewind was naturally triggered. Seeing that the three-color gadget stopped attacking, Kedien then opened another cover card in his back field.

"Haha, it's not over yet. At this moment, I'm going to open another cover card!"

"Activate Continuous Trap Card, Necrozomar!" "After activating the effect of this card, I can also use it as an Effect Monster (Undead? Dark? Star 4? Attack 1800/Defense 500), and I can Special Summon it in Defense Position in the Monster Zone."

"Oh? You're using a Continuous Trap Card as an Effect Monster?" He raised his eyebrows slightly because it was the first time he encountered such a duel tactic. For Atem, such an opponent was quite novel.

Of course, retreating is absolutely impossible in Atum's dictionary. Since he started dueling, he has never been cowardly as long as the monsters on his field can launch attacks when conditions permit.

"Hehe, my trap is not that simple!"

Pointing to Atum's backcourt, Kedion said loudly: "Another special effect of the bitter pattern earth statue is activated!"

"While this card Special Summoned by the effect of this card exists, and a card in your Spell & Trap Zone is Special Summoned in a Monster Zone, I can target a card on the field, and I can destroy that card."

"Because I Special Summoned Necromancer, I can activate this special effect. Now, I will use the Continuous Magic Card Golden Chest of Light on your backfield as the effect target and destroy this card!"

"Haha, human, you actually dared to imitate me, now you will suffer the consequences!"

Black magic light waves began to condense rapidly in the bitter-patterned earth statue, followed by a magic missile that shot rapidly towards Atum's backcourt.

"Hmph, I see. Is this the linkage effect of the Continuous Trap Card? But, unfortunately, this was already within my calculations!"

Seeing that the magic missile was about to fly over his half of the field, Atum raised his lips slightly and said loudly with a wave of his hand: "Silent Swordsman Zero's special effect is activated!"

"Once per turn, this monster exists face-up on the field. When your opponent activates an effect targeting Golden Chest of Light or a monster with this card's name on it, you can negate that effect and increase Silent Swordsman Zero's Level by 1!"

"At the same time, another special effect of Silent Swordsman Zero is activated!"

"If this monster's Level is higher than its original Level, this card's ATK increases by an amount equal to the difference in stats x 500."

Silent Swordsman Zero (Level 5) Attack Power 1000＞1500

Swish!

Holding a broadsword that was totally inappropriate for his size, the Silent Swordsman Zero dodged and came directly to the path of the magic missile. With lightning speed, he chopped the black magic missile in half, and Kedien's attack was blocked.

Kedian: “!!!”

"Hmph, interesting, this monster actually has such a special effect?!"

Atum's actions seemed to be within Kedien's consideration. After all, testing the opponent's monster effect is basically an unwritten duel routine whether in the elf world or the human world.

"But, when your monster reveals its effect, it is destined to be destroyed!"

After opening a face-up card on his backfield again, Kedian grinned and said, "Activate Continuous Trap Card, Cursed Statue!" "After the effect of this card is activated, it will also become a Monster Card (Rock-type? Dark? 4 stars? ATK 1800/DEF 1000) and can be Special Summoned to our Monster Zone!"

"Now, I will Special Summon Cursed Statue in Defense Position!"

Deliberately not explaining the hidden special effects of the cursed statue, Kedien raised his hand and pointed at his own clay statue with a bitter pattern.

"Bitter Pattern Earth Statue doesn't have a one-time effect activation limit per turn, and since I Special Summoned a card from my backfield, I can continue to select a card on the field and destroy it!"

"Now, the card I want to destroy is still the Continuous Magic Card Golden Cabinet of Light on your backfield!"

"Haha, you are really persistent. However, this is not enough!"

Raising his hand and showing a card, Atem shouted confidently: "At this moment, I will enter a chain and activate the Quick-Play Magic Card Time Silence? Turn Silence!" "You can only activate one of this card per turn. Its effect is to activate it targeting a face-up monster on your field, raising that monster's Level by 3. If you have a Golden Chest of Light and a monster with this card's name on your field, and if you activate this card to chain the effect of an opponent's monster, negate that opponent's effect."

"Now, I'm going to target Silent Swordsman Zero. Take it!"

The light of the quick-attack magic card shone when it was activated, and the powerful force it contained was released instantly. According to the duel rules of Yu-Gi-Oh, the last to strike first, the effect of this card was also given top priority.

With the blessing of magic power, the silent swordsman Zero swung the huge and sharp sword in his hand without hesitation. His movements were as swift as the wind, and he rushed directly to the front of Kedien. When the big sword hit the bitter-patterned clay statue heavily, a dull loud sound was heard, and the monster screamed in pain.

The body, originally made of clay, was on the verge of collapse under this fierce attack. It could be clearly seen that countless cracks appeared on the surface of the clay statue, as if it would fall apart at any time. The power of the Silent Swordsman Zero's attack was so great that the clay statue was almost directly smashed into a pile of mud.

At the same time, the earth statue with bitter patterns was preparing to use its unique skills, but due to the sudden and extremely fierce attack, its actions were forced to be interrupted. The energy that had begun to condense dissipated in an instant, and the special effects of this monster also came to an abrupt end.

"It's not over yet!"

Pointing at his Silent Swordsman Zero, Atem said calmly: "Because the star level of this monster has been upgraded, the attack power can be further increased by 1500 points!"

Silent Swordsman Zero (Level 8) Attack Power 1500＞3000

"What?! Is this monster so difficult to deal with?"

Unexpectedly, Atum once again invalidated the effect of his card, and the aura emanating from Kedien became increasingly gloomy!

What's even more terrifying is that the Silent Swordsman Zero, who originally had only 1000 attack points, now has 3000 attack points in just one round, and has reached a level that is on par with the legendary Blue-Eyes White Dragon. This situation obviously makes Kedien unable to ignore it any longer.

"Humph, you have no other tricks now!"

Seeing that Kedien had not yet activated his last cover card in the backcourt, Atum then began to continue his battle phase.

"First, the most troublesome monster, Silent Swordsman Zero, attack the bitter-patterned earth statue!"

The earth statue with bitter patterns, which was already in a shaky state and had a defense strength of only 2500 points, was no longer able to stop the attack of the silent swordsman Zero.

The sharp broadsword cut the monster in half, and the monster turned into pieces and disappeared on the field with a scream.

"Very good, next is the attack of Silent Magician Zero!"

"The Silent Magic is broken!"

The Silent Magician's current attack power is only 1000 points, so Atum can only attack the Undead Zoma.

"What a pity, this wave of operations was a mistake made by Atum due to the information gap!" Seeing that Atum did not use the three-color gadget to destroy the cursed statue first, Li Youfeng shook his head with regret.

As a time traveler, Li Youfeng's knowledge of card effects is already quite terrifying. In addition, the World Tree Library can also check the effects of cards. This alone is something that native duelists in the duel world such as Atum cannot compare to.

(Elf Swordsman: "I am miserable!")

(Atum: “???”)

The white magic missile hit the Undead Zoma accurately. This monster with only 500 points of defense power silenced the Mage Zero and smashed him into pieces without any suspense.

"Very good, next is the three-color gadget..."

"Oh, wait a moment, I'm going to activate the special effect of the Dead Soul Zoma at this moment!"

Interrupting Atum's turn, Kedien said with a sinister smile: "When the Continuous Trap Card Necrozomar is destroyed by battle, it can activate its special effect to inflict damage equal to the attack value of the monster that destroyed this card to the opponent player."

"Silent Mage Zero's attack power is 1000 points. Now, take this damage!"

The broken undead Zoma turned into a dark mist, mixed with anger and resentment, and the monster rushed straight towards Atum.

"Humph!"

It seemed that he had been prepared for this. When the black mist rushed towards him, Atum was already ready to defend himself.

Atum LP4000>3000

"Haha, this is the result of your reckless attack. Of course, my chain is just the beginning!" After successfully taking away Atum's life points, Kedien then pointed to another statue monster in front of him.

"The special effect of the cursed statue is activated!"

"This card exists on the field as a monster. If a Trap Card other than this card that is used as a monster battles an opponent's monster, that opponent's monster will be destroyed after damage calculation."

"Go away, Silent Magician Zero!"

Swish!

"what!"

As Kedien spoke, two red lasers shot out from the eyes of the cursed statue, directly piercing through the Silent Magician Zero. The monster turned into fragments and disappeared on Atem's front court.

"Tsk! I see. I never thought my luck was so bad!"

He instantly realized that this wave of operations was due to his failure to understand the effects of the opponent's cards and thus failed to choose the correct order of priority attacks. After a brief reflection, Atum raised his hand and pointed to his three-color gadget.

"The battle continues. Tricolor Gadget, attack the cursed statue!"

Waving his fist, he rushed to the frontcourt of Qedian, and the three-color gadget directly punched through the cursed statue in defense position. Although he also lost a monster, he was able to successfully clear all the monsters in the frontcourt of Qedian. For Atum himself, the advantage of the field was obviously in his favor.

"Very good, I cover two cards on my backcourt, and then that's it..."

"Hehe, is this the extent of your attack?"

Just when Atum was about to announce the end of the round, Kedien sneered on the spot, "What a pity! I had originally prepared a trick, but now it seems that you are much weaker than I thought!"

Not understanding at all that Atum, the son of destiny, was actually a person who became stronger when facing stronger opponents, Qedian, who thought that the former was just mediocre, naturally became more confident in this duel.

Raising his hand and opening the fourth cover card on his backfield, Kedian laughed crazily and said, "Activate the trap card, red blood-stained Eldrisir!" "This card has two special effects, but you can only choose one effect to use in one round!"

"Now, I will activate the first effect of this card. You can select an Undead monster from your deck or graveyard to Special Summon! In addition, if you don't have Golden Lord Eldridge on the field, this effect will not allow you to Special Summon this monster."

"Human, this duel has only just begun. The curse of the Golden Kingdom will turn you into my most loyal servant!"

"Now, come and see my most proud masterpiece!"

"Golden Lord Eldridge, attack position, summon!" (Attack Power 2500 Defense Power 2800)
