Hey! Let's play cards

"I'm adding 'Red-Eyes Dark Dragon' to my hand." Su Hongbing added a card to his hand, and Li Ming noticed that it was a nine-star monster.

"Enter the battle phase, 'Silent Swordsman' attacks 'Red-Eyes Black Flame Dragon', Sword of Silence!"

"It's not that simple. I open the Gefu card and the Trap Card 'Inferno Shield - Flame Power'. When the opponent's monster declares an attack, all attack-position monsters on the opponent's field are destroyed, and I take damage equal to half the total original attack power of the monsters destroyed by this effect.

After that, inflict damage to the opponent equal to the damage you received."

"It's actually from the shield series. I didn't expect she actually has such a card." You Xin on the side was quite interested in this card. This card belongs to the same series as "Holy Shield - Reflective Power", and even the effects are very similar.

A ripple of flames passed by, and the moment the silent swordsman raised his sword, the scorching temperature burned him to ashes.

The Silent Swordsman's original attack power is 1000, so both of them will receive 500 points of damage.

[Su Hongbing, LP3900→3400]

【Li Ming, LP1600→1100】

"The effect of the continuous magic 'Supply Troops' is activated, and I draw a card from my deck."

The Silent Swordsman's greatsword fell and stuck into the ground, but it did not disappear.

"What is this?" Su Hongbing also noticed the big sword that did not disappear.

"Li Ming! It's time to blow the horn of counterattack." You Xin shouted loudly outside the court.

"Yeah!" Li Ming responded.

The Silent Swordsman's greatsword is calling for a new master.

"When I activate the last effect of Silent Swordsman, and this card on the field is destroyed by battle or the opponent's card effect.

Special Summon 1 'Silent Swordsman' monster from your hand or deck, ignoring the summoning conditions."

"I hereby summon the strongest form of the Silent Swordsman, the swordsman who is proficient in the sword of light, come! 'Silent Swordsman Lv7'"

In the dazzling light, another upright and strong swordsman picked up the greatsword. The powerful force was so strong that even the Red-Eyes Black Flame Dragon could not help but bow his head.

[Silent Swordsman Lv7, Attack Power 2800]

"The battle continues, 'Silent Swordsman Lv7' attacks 'Red-Eyes Black Flame Dragon', Sword of Silence!"

Since this is a monster summoned during the Battle Phase, it can attack.

Another charge, this time there was no obstacle, the Silent Swordsman Lv7 used all his strength to cut the Black Flame Dragon in half.

[Su Hongbing, LP3400→3000]

"I face down a card, and the turn ends!"

Unexpectedly, Li Ming actually turned defense into offense and was able to gain such an advantage. Su Hongbing's hand cards were already clear: "Legendary Black Stone" plus "True Red-Eyes Dark Dragon".

Silent Swordsman Lv7 has a certain interference ability and has the effect of invalidating all magic on the field.

As long as he is on the field, Su Hongbing cannot activate magic cards, and cannot suddenly play a "God-given Treasure Card" or "Life-threatening Treasure Card" to reverse the situation.

Li Ming has a great chance of winning.

"It's my turn, draw a card!" There was still no sign of panic on Su Hongbing's face.

"I summon 'Legendary Black Stone' in Attack Position, then activate its effect, Tribute it, and Special Summon a 'Red-Eyes' monster of level 7 or lower from the Deck. Come out! Red-Eyes Black Dragon."

The origin of all Red-Eyes, the black dragon that brings possibility, spreads its wings and flies again.

[Red-Eyes Black Dragon, attack power 2400]

"Then I will release 'Red-Eyes Black Dragon' and Special Summon it from my hand. The black dragon drenched in darkness brings even greater power. Fly! 'Red-Eyes Dark Dragon'"

Countless darkness climbed up the black dragon, and its body, which was originally filled with metallic texture, was covered with sticky darkness.

The black dragon that obtained the power of darkness had a terrifying aura of destruction in its scarlet eyes.

[Red-Eyes Dark Dragon, attack power 2400]

"Is this the new evolution of Red-Eyes Black Dragon? So powerful!" Li Ming could feel the monster's strength and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"Activate the effect of Red-Eyes Triumph. When you have a Red-Eyes monster on your field, revive a Red-Eyes Normal monster from the Graveyard. Come back! Red-Eyes Black Dragon."

[Red-Eyes Black Dragon, attack power 2400]

"Two more red-eyes monsters? This is indeed the benefit of this deck series!" Such operating ability made You Xin feel a little envious.

"The true power of Red-Eyes Dark Dragon is revealed here. Its attack power increases by 1 points for each Dragon-Type monster in your Graveyard."

The shadows of various red-eyed monsters appeared behind Su Hongbing.

Red-Eyes Black Flame Dragon x2, Legendary Black Stone, Black Dragon Hatchling, Black Steel Dragon, Red-Eyes Black Dragon x2

There are 7 in total, so the Red-Eyes Dark Dragon's attack will increase by 2100 points.

[Red-Eyes Dark Dragon, attack power 2400→4500]

"Wow! 4500 attack points, isn't that roughly equivalent to a 'Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon'?" You Xin teased with interest.

For Duel Monsters, attack power is not the most important attribute.

Li Ming frowned instead. The attack power of 4500 points was even more terrifying than the "Great Magic Beast Gazette" he had encountered before.

"I activate the effect of another 'Black Steel Dragon' from my hand and equip it to 'Red-Eyes Black Dragon', increasing its attack power by 600 points."

[Red-Eyes Black Dragon, attack power 2400→3000]

Two powerful black dragons stood on Su Hongbing's field, and the deterrent power they brought was indeed extraordinary.

"This way, it's really over." Su Hongbing said with his head down.

"Enter the battle phase. Red-Eyes Black Dragon attacks Silent Swordsman Lv7. Black Flame Bullet!"

A powerful black flame bomb attacked the silent swordsman. Although the swordsman tried his best to resist, it was useless under the supreme duel rules. He could only leave in hatred in the black flame.

【Li Ming, LP1100→900】

Chapter 69: Choosing Destiny

"The effect of the continuous magic 'Supply Troops', once per turn, when a monster on my field is destroyed by battle or the opponent's effect, I draw a card from my deck." Li Ming drew another card.

The magic nullification effect of "Silent Swordsman Lv7" is a permanent effect. Not only the opponent will be disturbed, but Li Ming himself will be no exception.

But when the "Silent Swordsman" was destroyed, the blocking effect disappeared, so Li Ming was able to activate the "Supply Troops" effect.

"It's time to end all this. This is my destiny after all, a direct attack from the 'Red-Eyes Dark Dragon'." Su Hongbing lowered his eyes, and there seemed to be endless sadness in his eyes.

A powerful energy gathered in the dark dragon's mouth. The mystery of darkness plus the heat of the fire bomb, this devastating blow was about to fall on Li Ming.

"No! It's not over yet. I open the cover card and the trap card 'Change Destiny'" Li Ming waved his hand and turned over the only cover card in his backcourt.

"change destiny?"

"Change your destiny!!!"

The former is Su Hongbing. Although she doesn’t know the effect of this card, she feels that this card seems to be prepared for her.

The latter is You Xin. The moment he saw this card, You Xin’s mind was filled with one sentence: It’s over, Li Ming is crazy.

"When an opponent's monster declares an attack, negate the attack of 1 opponent's monster and change that monster to Defense Position.

As long as that monster remains face-up on the field, its position cannot be changed."

[Red-Eyes Dark Dragon, Defense 2000]

The effects of the first half are normal, but the most critical ones are the effects of the latter half.

"After that, your opponent chooses 1 of the following effects to apply: 1. Your life points are restored by the effect of this card, and you can attack a monster that is negated by half of its attack power.

2. Give your opponent the effect of this card, and attack the ineffective monster, dealing damage equal to half of its attack power.

"What do you mean?" Su Hongbing asked in confusion.

"Because I believe you!" Li Ming responded sincerely.

Li Ming's health points are only 900 points left. As long as Su Hongbing chooses the second effect and inflicts half the damage of the True Red-Eyes Dark Dragon on Li Ming, it will still be Su Hongbing's victory.

The two looked at each other, and no one spoke again.

You Xin, who was standing by, couldn't stand it any longer and yelled, "You're crazy. Why bring such a card? Don't forget that this is a dark game. If you lose, you will be swallowed by darkness."

Although Su Hongbing is very beautiful, You Xin really doesn't have any good feelings towards her. Not only is she a dark duelist, but she also almost ruined Li Ming.

"I know, but I believe her."

"Don't believe it. You've only met a few times and exchanged a few words, and yet you're so open with your heart. Wake up, okay!" You Xin continued to yell.

There was no point in saying anything more now, You Xin could only hope that Li Ming still had a "Winged Cotton Ball" in his hand.

"I am a dark duelist, and obeying the darkness is my destiny. This card is ridiculous. What's the point of changing destiny? Destiny cannot be changed at all." Su Hongbing became a little agitated.

Li Ming responded enthusiastically: "Don't say that fate cannot be changed. It is only in your mind. We cannot decide our origins, but we can decide what kind of person we will become. So what if we were born in darkness? Why can't we stand in the sun?"

Li Ming's words shocked Su Hongbing.

"Can I stand in the sun too?" A crystal teardrop flowed from the corner of Su Hongbing's eye.

"I choose to restore half of my attack power."

[Su Hongbing, LP3000→5250]

"Sister Hongbing!" Li Ming smiled slightly.

You Xin's heart finally settled down, and he realized belatedly that this scene seemed a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

"My turn is over!" Su Hongbing's turn ended here.

……

Not far from You Xin’s home, You’s father walked cautiously on the paths.

Inside the town, a group of people in black robes were fighting fiercely with another group of duelists. From time to time, some conceited town residents would join in, but these amateur duelists were no match for the dark duelists.

Father You has seen many people being swallowed by the darkness, including many familiar faces.

But in order to find You Xin, You's father could only sigh and leave quietly.

You's father didn't know where You Xin was. After dinner, he only heard him say that he wanted to go out for a walk with Li Ming.

Following this clue, You's father prepared to go to Li Ming's house.

Sticking close to the corner of the street, avoiding the street lights on both sides of the road, carefully circumventing the scope of the dark game.
