Yu-Gi-Oh! Starting from Duel City.

Chapter 143
"Fight! [Evil Goddess Rua] attacks [Blue-eyed White Dragon] on the seahorse field!"

Following Kaiba's previous foolish move, Mask of Darkness also imitated the evil goddess on the field with lower attack power to launch a self-destructive active attack on the Blue Eyes White Dragon.

If nothing else goes wrong, this monster will taste the anger of the white dragon due to its foolish behavior of overestimating its own capabilities, and will be annihilated into fine dust all over the sky under the power of the exploding wind bullets.

"Hmph! So what if the attack power rises to 2600? You overestimate your capabilities, I will let you..."

"Is this really true? Kaiba!"

"……what?"

Interrupting the mocking declaration that Kaiba had planned to say, at the moment when the Mask of Darkness was attacking, the short man with a cunning look - the Mask of Light, waved his arms in synchrony, opening up the ambush in the backcourt. Gaika said: "Jiejiejiejie... At the moment when my companion is attacking, I open the ambush card in the backfield and activate the trap card [Weakened Mask]!"

"What? Weakened? Is it possible..."

After noticing the keyword in the card name, Kaiba's eyes suddenly narrowed at this moment, and at the same moment, a bad feeling instinctively emerged in his heart.

As the trap card was activated, a new mask with an extremely ferocious appearance, with five barbs pointing in different directions on the outside, also appeared on the head of [Blue Eyes White Dragon] in the next moment.

"Jiejiejiejiejie... According to the effect of [Weakened Mask], the attack power of the opponent's monsters on the field will be reduced by 700 points until the end of the round. In other words, the attack power of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon is not 3000 points, but 2300 points!"

Weak purple waves, as the mask appeared, gradually covered the Blue-Eyed White Dragon's body, weakening her basic attributes.

Under the gaze of everyone, the legendary dragon's attack power dropped by 700 points and was no longer as glorious as before.

([Blue Eyes White Dragon] Attack power: 3000 → 2300)

"Jiejiejiejie...you're done, Blue Eyes White Dragon!"

"Hahahahaha!!! Well done, partner! Disappear for me, Blue Eyes!"

Blue Eyes, whose attack power dropped to 2300 points, was no longer a match for the alien evil goddess.

Seeing that their goal had been achieved, the Mask of Light and the Mask of Darkness couldn't help but burst into uncontrollable triumphant laughter at the same time.

When it comes to cooperating with each other, the two of them have the confidence to not lose to anyone.

"Oh, don't even think about succeeding!"

Against a monster with an attack power of 2600, against a monster with an attack power of 2300, there is no doubt that Mask of Light and Darkness has the advantage.

However, just as Kaiba instinctively showed a surprised expression, Wang Xiang, who saw the Masks of Light and Darkness cooperating with each other, also made a new move at this moment.

The proud expressions of the Gurus cadres were reflected in his pupils. Wang Xiang, who narrowed his eyes, quickly raised his arm and opened the cover card in the back field: "At this moment, I also activate the back field. Trap card [Elf Mirror]! With the effect of this card, guys from Gurus, I will accept the power of your mask!"

Mask of Light & Darkness: "...What did you say?!"

-

【Elf Mirror】

(Trap card)

Effect: The effect of a spell targeting one duelist is transferred to the other duelists.

-

"Similar to the cards you activated against Kaiba earlier, the trap card [Elf Mirror] also has the effect of changing the activation target of the magic card."

Pointing to the location of [Female Evil Goddess Ruya] on Gurus' field, Wang Xiang continued to explain: "According to this effect, I will use the effect of the [Ferocious Mask] equipped by the monster on your field. Transfer it to [Blue Eyes White Dragon] and increase her attack power by 1000 points!"

Mask of Light & Darkness: "...!!!"

Those who are good are those who are always good.

The Mask of Light and Darkness would never have imagined that one day they would actually be taken away by someone.

Although the transfer effect of [Elf Mirror] only lasts for one turn and does not change the equipment target of the equipped magic card, this is enough!
"The time to counterattack has come! Destroy that monster that overestimates its capabilities for me! Blue Eyes!"

With Wang Xiang's intervention, the situation on the court suddenly changed.

On top of the original effect of [Weak Mask] which reduces the attack power by 700 points, there is also an effect of [Ferocious Mask] which increases the attack power by 1000 points.

[Blue Eyes White Dragon], who was being nestled into each other by two masks with different effects, after the attack power dropped, quickly began to rise again, and broke through the upper limit of the original attack power. From the previous 2300 points, it rose to 3300 points in one breath. A value of [-] points!
The attack power of [Evil Goddess Ruya] has returned to its original value of 1600 points after losing the bonus of [Ferocious Mask].

Although its face still wears a painful mask that hides its stunning appearance, the effect of that mask has been transferred to the [Blue Eyes White Dragon].

Judging from the results, the Mask of Light's actions not only failed to allow its companions to successfully destroy the [Blue Eyes White Dragon], but instead made a wedding dress for their opponents, causing them to fall into a deeper level. in the deep pit.

Under the light of the blue-eyed white dragon's counterattack, the alien evil god was shattered into fine dust by the blast of wind, and traces of its existence were eliminated from the field.

The Mask of Darkness, which launched the attack, also suffered damage from the counterattack at this moment, losing a large amount of its health in one breath.

"What exactly is power? In order to survive, the only thing I can believe in is power."

"In battle, everyone except yourself is the enemy... Power is a weapon used to defend the territory and defeat the enemy. Therefore, power only needs to be used for yourself."

“Can the power of collaboration really surpass everything I’ve done before?”

Reality, which was more convincing than words, was ruthlessly placed before his eyes. After seeing the result, Kaiba couldn't help but have a confused thought in his heart.

If he had only relied on his own strength, he might have been defeated just now.

But precisely because of the help of his teammate Wang Xiang, he was able to turn the situation around and launch a furious counterattack against his opponent.

The current situation was the result of the two people's cooperation. It was the ultimate vision that Kaiba could achieve, what he had been unwilling to do.

(Dark Mask LP: 2000)

"Gu... I only have half of my health left!" The Mask of Darkness noticed the loss of health and felt a huge sense of crisis, and large beads of sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead.

Subconsciously, he let out an uncontrollable exclamation from his mouth.

"Partner, are you okay?"

Sensing the abnormal state of his companion, the Mask of Light, who had been tricked by Wang Yang, put away the smile on his face and made a concerned inquiry towards the injured Mask of Darkness.

The failure just now was just an accident.

What needs to be done most now is to reflect on the mistake just now, so as not to encounter similar things again.

"Shut up! You bastard, it's all because you asked me to attack just now that you got the current result!"

The Mask of Darkness was furious, and driven by anger, he took the words of his companions as a mockery of himself.

Without any reason, he directly directed his negative emotions at the Mask of Light beside him and vented his dissatisfaction to him sternly: "Look at the good things you have done! Now on our field, even There’s not a single monster left! If it hadn’t been for your bad idea, we wouldn’t have had such a tragic result! After doing something like this, you still have the nerve to ask me if I’m okay?”

"What? You actually said that to me. I was clearly trying my best to help just now..."

"Are you helping your horse? Didn't you even think that they would have a backup plan?"

"Nonsense...shut up! This is obviously your responsibility! Are you starting to blame me now?"

"I bother!"

"What are you..."

The two people who had cooperated seamlessly just now were now in a state of internal fighting because they failed to achieve their goals.

They all shirked the responsibility for their failure on their companions, and a layer of blazing flames representing anger ignited on the surface of their bodies.

Clenching their teeth simultaneously, the face of the Mask of Light and Darkness showed a look of hatred.

It's hard to get rid of water, and it's hard to round a broken mirror.

Words spoken are difficult to take back, and the impact of ugly arguments is equally difficult to estimate.

Once there is a grudge between the two parties, it will become very difficult to make up for it.

In any case, the seeds of doubt have been planted in the Mask of Light and Darkness's heart because of this incident.

When the seeds took root and sprouted, it was the moment when their cooperation came to an end.

"Very good! There are already cracks in the cooperative relationship between these two guys. If they can continue to fight among themselves like this, then the advantage will always be on our side."

Noticing the abnormal state of the two people opposite him, Wang Xiang crossed his arms and silently cast his thoughtful gaze in the direction of Kaiba.

Sure enough, if he wanted to completely win, he would still have to rely on his cooperation with Kaiba.

"Tsk! My turn is not over yet!"

The Mask of Darkness, which has temporarily ended the shirk of responsibility with its companions, ended the combat phase, and entered the main phase 2 of this round. After looking at its empty front court, a fear subconsciously emerged in its heart. idea.

Now that there is no monster as a shield, he still has 2000 health points. If he is directly attacked by [Blue Eyes White Dragon] in Kaiba's next turn, he will be defeated directly and will be involved in the explosion of the timer. Among them, it literally becomes "Dark Mask-chan".

A dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist.

When things get to this point, you can no longer count on your companions, and only you can protect yourself.

In order to avoid his own demise, he quickly made a decision in his heart, determined to preserve his Mask of Darkness, and made his last act of struggle: "I ambush a card, the round is over!"

"Hmph! It seems that you no longer have the ability to resist! Then let me end this with my own hands and give you the last leg!"

It was Kaiba's turn. After making this declaration to the two officers of Grus, he suddenly waved his hand and pulled out the top card of the deck.

Without even looking at the card he just drew, Kaiba planned to take this opportunity to beat up the drowned dog. He directly entered the battle stage and issued an attack command to the [Blue Eyes White Dragon] floating above his head.

"Power! Power!! Power!!! Yes, the strongest and invincible [Blue Eyes White Dragon] is the proof of my power!"

With firm determination in his heart, Kaiba stretched out his hand and waved his arm vigorously in front of him: "Blue Eyes, please crush the enemy completely!"

"I use my monster to directly attack the Mask of Darkness! Disappear! Explosive Wind Bomb of Destruction!!!"

Indeed, judging from the situation on the field, a direct attack will indeed reduce the opponent's health to zero.

But such an attack would be too monotonous.

If they could be eliminated so easily, then these two people would not be cadres of the Gurus organization.

"A duelist like Kaiba should understand the risks of doing so, but he still made such a choice. Kaiba, what on earth was he thinking?"

For a moment, he couldn't understand Kaiba's plan, and Wang Yang's face regained a look of doubt.

And just as he was thinking about it, the Blue-Eyed White Dragon had already gathered enough energy in his mouth, and fired the blast of destruction in his mouth at the empty opponent on the field.

As he watched, the attack that had taken away the ritual monster earlier swept across the Mask of Darkness' body, wiping out his last 2000 health points in the exploding white light...

"Heh heh heh heh... naive, so naive!"

Catering to the direct attack of [Blue Eyes White Dragon] aimed at itself, the Mask of Darkness, which was prepared in advance in the last round, now used a tone that was almost a roar, and while shouting proudly, he vigorously Turning over the cover card in the backfield: "The quick-attack magic card [Iron Wall's Mask] is activated! After this card is activated, it will become a shield to protect me, making me immune to monster attacks during this round. The battle damage caused!"

The iron composite mask, which was as thick as a shield, instantly appeared in front of Dark Mask's body as the quick-attack magic card was activated, blocking the direct attack from [Blue Eyes White Dragon] on his behalf.

The destructive bursting wind bomb hit the suspended mask shield. After making a deafening explosion, it quickly spread in all directions amidst the huge impact...
