The villainous young master just wants to live a Buddhist-like life.

　The pot and the golden beast are incomparable; it seems as if it could be crushed in one bite.

　But Emma was not fooled by the pot's appearance; her thinking was very clear.

　Approaching the summoning area, after Dark performs the second summon, kill the other magical spirit used as a sacrifice!

　……

　Two words combined, 4000 words!

Chapter 174 Darkdemon's First Round (4K)

　Card Name: Golden Beast

　[Type: Spirit Card]

　【grade:】

　[Race: Machine]

　[Attribute: Steel]

　【Magic Power: 1000】

　[Attack: 1300]

　[Defense: 1500]

　Ultimate Skill: Golden Devour

　……

　The Golden Beast belongs to the Ancient Machine species, conceptually a product of forgotten technology, similar to a golem. However, unlike a golem, its entire body is a mechanical construct.

　Strictly speaking, the golden beasts created using magical technology are not the same kind of life as the real golden beasts, because they do not have a "mechanical core".

　The "mechanical core" is the heart of all ancient mechanical species.

　Today, the only remaining mechanical core in the world is preserved in a museum.

　The Golden Beasts, forged using magical technology, have mechanical cores replaced by the special life mechanisms of Magic Cards, which makes them different from the true Golden Beasts.

　Emma's Golden Beast has a defensive stat on its stat sheet, but its attack power should not be underestimated.

　Its ultimate move, "Golden Devour," is nothing short of a divine skill!

　……

　Under Emma's command, the golden beast stretched its limbs and rushed towards the red team's summoning zone in the blink of an eye.

　Immediately following, Dark began to cast his second Normal Summoning spell!

　The Golden Beast had only just begun its journey when Dark had already completed the summoning.

　A ray of white light emerged from the second magic card in his hand.

　Under Dark's deliberate guidance, the white light landed on the pot's shell.

　Then it takes on a physical form.

　But it is indeed "trash slime"!

　……

　Previously, Dark had instinctively considered the more powerful "Eevee" as a model, to the point that he thought it would be difficult to protect the one-star magical Pokémon that was sacrificed after "Shuttle" had its weakness exposed.

　That idea itself is correct.

　But what if we replace "Eevee, the Beast Master" with "Trash Slime"...

　The teapot will be perfectly protected!

　Because when the volume of a garbage slime is condensed, it is even smaller than an apple!

　As long as you hide the trash slime inside its shell, you'll be completely safe!

　……

　After all, it's a real duel, not a card game.

　By breaking free from conventional thinking about playing cards, you'll discover many points that can be utilized.

　……

　Under Dak's orders.

　With a "whoosh," the trash slime burrowed into the pot's shell.

　This powerful combination, becoming one, completely stunned the audience, professors, and Emma on stage!

　So much so that the golden beast stopped in its tracks.

　Its eyes were wide open, and it was desperately trying to figure out how to carry out its master's task, using its intelligence level of 2.0.

　结果自不必多言。

　If it could figure that out, then it wouldn't be an intelligence level 2.0!

　……

　The sacrificial summons could not be stopped at that moment.

　As Emma drew a magic card from her hand, she immediately gave a new command to the Golden Beast: "Skip that pot and attack the magic ball directly!"

　Upon receiving its master's new command, the golden beast immediately raised its head, roared to rouse itself, and then leaped up and started running again!

　But Shuttle was summoned directly in front of the Magic Ball.

　The pots, in their normal posture, are all 0.6 meters tall.

　The initial height of the magic ball is 1 meter.

　It can easily reach the magic ball by simply stretching its neck as far as possible or using its tentacles to prop up its body.

　However, the diameter of the Magic Ball is 0.3 meters, which is the same as the height of a baby Eevee. The Magic Ball with the Life Barrier activated is even larger!

　So touching the magic ball is just the beginning; to retrieve it, another effort will be needed.

　The magic ball's "levitation property" is based on applying "psychic power" to itself, which fixes it in a certain position in the air.

　To move it, you need to fight against this telekinetic force.

　Fortunately, the amount of mental energy required was not large.

　Even without using "Power Trick", Shuttle can retrieve the Magic Ball.

　Then hide it behind your back.

　The practical significance of this kind of concealment is actually not great, since it's leaky from all sides.

　But it can lure the golden beast close to the pot.

　Hu Hu was able to time it perfectly and deliver a powerful punch to the Golden Beast!

　This punch might not be enough to defeat the Golden Beast, but it can at least buy some time.

　The magic power of the Magic Ball Life Barrier is 1000.

　The power of the Samsung Magical Spirit is typically capped at 1500.

　After "Power Divided", only 750 remains.

　The life barrier of the magic ball can withstand a single blow without breaking.

　This bought them more time.

　If that's still not enough.

　Potpot can even throw the magic ball into the air with force!

　Surely this golden beast can't fly away now...

　A glint of superpowers shone in Shushu's eyes, and as the golden beast approached, it immediately used "Power Divide".

　The attack power of both the Golden Beast and the Pot Pot has increased to 650.

　Then Kouchi used "Power Trick" to reverse the offense and defense.

　Its tentacles suddenly grew thicker and larger, and even developed the outline of muscles!

　But the golden beast suddenly leaped over its head.

　"Sizzle!"

　Huhu suddenly tilted its head back, turning 180 degrees with the golden beast, and saw the cyborg land on its forepaws with an extremely smooth motion, twisting its body and opening its blood-red maw to bite down on the magic ball!

　"Crack!"

　The golden beast's sharp teeth pierced the life barrier, and obvious cracks appeared on the barrier.

　【1000→400】

　In a hurry, Shushu stretched out its tentacle and forcefully pushed the magic ball away. At the same moment, it rolled up another tentacle and slammed it upwards!

　"BOOM!"

　With that hammer blow, the golden beast's enormous head suddenly tilted back!

　Its magic power plummeted!

　However, thanks to its all-mechanical heavy metal construction, the Golden Beast managed to withstand the impact and not be sent flying.

　Then, with an extremely fierce backhand swipe, it struck the pot pot!

　……

　at the same time.

　Emma completed her second normal summoning spell, and a winged gold coin appeared in the blue team's summoning area.

　Not long after.

　Dark's sacrificial summoning spell was finally completed.

　Suddenly, Pot Pot, who was fighting against the Golden Beast, turned into light, and a pink elf with a ribbon in her hair leaped out from the light array summoned by the sacrifice.

　Sylveon's reappearance caused a sensation outside the arena.

　Emma's complexion, however, turned sour.

　But she remained calm.

　With a flick of her finger, the winged gold coin suddenly accelerated, traversing the field like a golden streak, heading straight for the golden beast!

　at this time.

　As soon as Sylveon appeared, it looked up and saw the ferocious-looking Golden Beast!

　The two are twice as tall and have vastly different body types.

　But it was the Golden Beast that seemed nervous!

　Sylveon slightly opened its mouth, and a melody was already leaked out.

　"..." The golden beast subconsciously took a step back.

　Emma, ​​the player on the blue team's platform, suddenly yelled, "Plug your ears!"

　The golden beast's mechanical ears immediately folded downwards, and no sound could be heard anymore.

　Its already insufficient magic power immediately stopped its downward trend!

　"really!"

　Seeing this, Emma regained her confidence.

　She immediately shouted, "Coin worm, parasite!"

　The winged gold coin that flew at high speed landed on the golden beast's spine with a "thud"!

　Then its body sank down, actually merging into the golden shell of the golden beast.

　Immediately afterwards, the golden beast raised its head and roared, and two clumps of liquid metal suddenly emerged from its sides. As they formed armor covering its entire body, they transformed into a pair of golden wings!

　The golden beast can really fly!

　……
