Chapter 591: Strongest Magician
The Dark Magician came again, and the magic circle in midair was activated simultaneously. The handwriting engraved on the spell circle glowed brightly, the spell circle rotated rapidly, and the wandering magic power swelled up, like flying knives and guns.
To a certain extent, it could see through and even affect the trajectory of the future, interfere with space with powerful magic power, and obliterate any existence to nothingness with time and space magic. This was the "Dark Magical Circle", the highest level of magic in black magic!
The majestic magic power was like a flood that had burst a bank, and the dust and gravel in the space were engulfed in it, rushing towards Doomking Balerdroch.
The undead king roared like a demonstration, and the brilliance of the ruby made his bones stand out, but it was just impotent rage.
Doomking Balerdroch was the absolute king of the Zombie race, possessing the powerful power to nullify the special abilities of any Zombie monsters other than himself.
And when the Field Spell "Zombie World" existed, all monsters on both sides' fields and in the graveyard would become Zombie.
In other words, under such a combination, Doomking Balerdroch has the supreme power to nullify the special abilities of any monsters.
However, it was helpless when facing this high-level black magic power.
The reason was simple – Because this is the power from the Continuous Spell "Dark Magical Circle", not the monster effect of the Dark Magician himself. Although it had the powerful ability to negate the effects of any monsters, the premise was that they must have effects.
However, Dark Magician… was a Normal Monster and had no effect.
All magic he used came from the spells and traps exclusive to Dark Magician, which did not belong to the category of monster effects. Therefore, Doomking Balerdroch could do nothing against it.
The surging power of black magic enveloped the entire field, the space distorted and the dimensions changed. Doomking Balerdroch was hit hard by the torrent of black magic, his figure turned into a phantom, twisted in the center of the field, and let out an unwilling roar before disappearing from the field.
The High Priest of Darkness seemed to hear the sound of his teeth grinding, and the sound was particularly harsh under the mask.
The magic array stopped rotating, and the surging magic storm stopped briefly. The Dark Magician crossed his arms and slowly returned to the Pharaoh. His expression remained calm, but he still maintained the inviolable invisible aura.
The High Priest of Darkness has not yet given up: "Then activate the instant spell – Burial from a Different Dimension! Let the exiled 'Necroworld Banshee', 'Mezuki', and 'Doomking Balerdroch' fall back to sleep again in my graveyard!"
Burial from a Different Dimension (Quick-Play Spell): Target up to 3 banished monsters; return them to the Graveyard.
Doomking Balerdroch had the ability to resurrect itself from the graveyard at every turn. Coupled with its own powerful special ability, it should be able to block the opponent's actions.
Of course, at this time, the High Priest of Darkness no longer dared to be careless about the master-servant combination of Pharaoh and Mahad. He would not be naive enough to think that this would be enough to stop their attack.
The High Priest of Darkness glanced at another stone slab in his hand through the Millennium Eye, and his eyes became cold.
This slab was the real core of his plan to reverse the situation!
"Set two slabs and my operation is over."
Come, Pharaoh!
The moment you launch an attack, it will be your death!
The High Priest of Darkness secretly thought in his heart.
Yugi's eyes briefly paused on the high priest's back row, then he said calmly: "My turn, draw."
"At this moment, the power of the undead king has also awakened!" The High Priest of Darkness shouted, "Awaken from your slumber, Doomking Balerdroch!"
Doomking Balerdroch: During the Standby Phase, if a face-up card is in a Field Zone and this card is in your GY: You can Special Summon this card in Defense Position.
The pitch-black death aura dyed the world black, and the undead king covered in white bone armor returned to the field with the roar of the cracking of the earth. The pressure of death made it difficult to breathe.
[Doomking Balerdroch, DEF 2000]
Some of the surrounding priests couldn't help but comment: "How evil and powerful this monster is! Is it actually immortal?"
The effect of the "Card of Safe Return" was activated, and the High Priest of Darkness could get three new stone slabs again.
"This is the dark power I got from hell!" The High Priest of Darkness shouted loudly, "You who have lost the protection of the gods can't win no matter what!"
But neither Yami Yugi nor Mahad paid any attention to it. With a light wave of the Dark Magician's staff, the aura of death was blocked by the black magic domain, and it couldn't invade in the slightest.
Glancing at the cards drawn, Yugi raised his head and said to the Dark Magician, "Mahad, I want to borrow your body."
"It doesn't matter." The Dark Magician nodded, "For Pharaoh's words, no matter how many times, I am willing to sacrifice my body."
Yami Yugi nodded, and then quickly revealed a card: "Quick-Play Spell – Magical Dimension! If I control a Spellcaster monster: Target 1 monster I control; Tribute that target, then Special Summon 1 Spellcaster monster from my hand."
"In the domain of the 'Zombie World', any servant will become Zombie!" The High Priest of Darkness shouted.
"The effect of 'Eternal Soul'!" Yugi pointed to the monument standing behind him, "As long as this card exists, the 'Dark Magician' on my field is unaffected by the opponent's card effects.
So Dark Magician is a Spellcaster monster! "
"Tch." The High Priest of Darkness grunted.
"I take the 'Dark Magician' as a sacrifice, and hereby call——
——Magician of Dark Illusion! "
The figure of the Dark Magician turned into a phantom and dissipated, and a brand new black-robed mage flew out from the unscrewed magic circle. They had almost identical robes, only the brilliance of the staff was slightly dimmed. And the face under the magic black robe was pitch black, only revealing the sharp eyes.
[Magician of Dark Illusion, ATK 2100]
"This is Mahad's Ka?" The High Priest of Darkness's eyes changed slightly, and he felt puzzled, "But why did you sacrifice Mahad and call for a relatively inferior spirit?"
"The follow-up effect of Magical Dimension!" Yami Yugi said, "After its effect is activated, I can choose another monster on the field to destroy. Let's leave the field again, Doomking Balerdroch!"
The High Priest of Darkness's eyelids twitched again.
Direct spell destruction?
This trick once again involved the blind spot of the Undead King's ability. Although the "Magical Dimension" used here was also a black magic spell, it was not a monster ability but a Spell effect, which could not be negated by the power of the Doomking Balerdroch.
Boom!
The dull explosion echoed in the realm of immortality, and Doomking Balerdroch exited the scene again with an unwilling roar.
"Cut, then open the set trap: Continuous Trap – Call of the Haunted!" The High Priest of Darkness waved his hand, "Resurrect the undead king in the cemetery!"
A dark beam of light shot up into the sky, and the king of the dead returned to the field with the roar of the king!
[Doomking Balerdroch, ATK 2800]
At the same time, because of the effect of the "Card of Safe Return", the High Priest of Darkness continued to obtain new stone slabs.
"See? Just relying on a mere magician, he is not my opponent at all…"
"Quick-Play Spell – Soul Servant!" With a big wave of Yami Yugi's hand, another card appeared, "Choose a card that is 'Dark Magician' or mentions 'Dark Magician' or 'Dark Magician Girl', except 'Soul Servant', from my hand, Deck, or GY, and place it on top of the Deck.
I chose the Spell Card 'Dark Magic Attack' from the deck and placed it at the top of the deck. "
Yami Yugi selected a card and inserted it at the top of the deck.
The High Priest of Darkness felt bad in his heart, but he was still stubborn: "Even so, that spell will need the next round to be used…"
"Another effect of 'Soul Servant'! Banish this Spell Card from the graveyard, and I can draw cards from the deck according to the number of 'Dark Magician' and 'Dark Magician Girl' with different names that exist on my field or in the graveyard.
Because there is a 'Dark Magician' in my graveyard, I draw a card from the deck! "
Yami Yugi drew a card from the deck, and that card was undoubtedly the Spell Card "Dark Magic Attack" that he had just placed at the top of the deck.
"At the same moment, the effect of 'Magician of Dark Illusion' is activated!" Yami Yugi continues, "If I activate a Spell/Trap Card or effect while this card is face-up on my field, I can target 1 'Dark Magician' in my GY; Special Summon it. This effect can only be used once while this card is face-up on the field!
Resurrect again, Dark Magician! "
"Mahad again!?" The High Priest of Darkness's voice was distorted with anger, "But this time it's not so easy! The special ability of Doomking Balerdroch! Except for itself, when other undead abilities are activated, it can revoke that ability!"
Doomking Balerdroch: Once per turn, when a Zombie monster, except "Doomking Balerdroch", activates its effect, negate that effect.
"As long as 'Magician of Dark Illusion' exists on the field, his name is treated as 'Dark Magician'." Yami Yugi overwhelmed the voice of the great priest, "Therefore, according to the effect of 'Eternal Soul', Magician of Dark Illusion is also unaffected by the opponent's card effects!"
High Priest of Darkness: "!?"
There is such a thing?
But he quickly came back to his senses, quickly showed his hand speed performed a hand seal, and shouted: "Then I will also use a trap – High Speed Aria!"
High Speed Aria (Trap Card): Send 1 Normal Spell Card from your hand to the Graveyard; this card's effect becomes that Normal Spell Card's effect when that card is activated. You cannot activate Spell Cards during your next turn. (anime card)
The High Priest of Darkness clicked a slab from his hand, and the slab was turned over, and its real form was——
——"Soul Release"!
Soul Release (Spell Card): Target up to 5 cards in any GY(s); banish them.
"Crush it for me!" The High Priest of Darkness clenched his hands into fists, "Be gone, Mahad's dead soul!"
Undoubtedly, he wanted to get rid of the "Dark Magician" in Yami Yugi's graveyard before the effect of the Magician of Dark Illusion was resolved.
But he still missed one point, a crucial point.
Yugi closed his eyes briefly and then opened them quickly, his eyes were clear and without any confusion.
"Then before the 'Soul Release' takes effect, activate the effect of the Continuous Trap 'Eternal Soul'." Yami Yugi said lightly, "Once per turn, I can special summon 1 'Dark Magician' from my hand or graveyard."
Only then did the angry high priest suddenly wake up, and the coolness spread all over his limbs in an instant.
...Oops!
The huge monument was lit up, and light blue fluorescent lines quickly spread all over the monument, once again outlining the portrait of the magician. A low humming sounded from inside the stele, which sounded a bit like the humming of a modern industrial engine.
The dark magic power erupted, the storm raged, and a slender figure flew out.
Dark Magician arose again!
[Dark Magician, ATK 2500]
"At this moment, the effect of 'Dark Magical Circle'." Yami Yugi said coldly, "Once per turn, when 'Dark Magician' is Normal or Special Summoned to my field, a card on the opponent's field will be banished.
Disappear, Doomking Balerdroch! "
The Dark Magician waved his wand, and the magical power inspired seemed to resonate with the space. The majestic magic power stirred the air, rapidly expanding the field of black magic.
Poor Doomking Balerdroch was captured by time and space magic again before he could stand still. The space where it was located began to distort and the dimension broke. The undead king roared into the sky, his figure was sucked into it and disappeared.
The High Priest of Darkness was stunned for a few breaths, looking at the Dark Magician standing in front of him, as invincible as the God of War, even the luster of the Millennium Eye began to dim.
No, it's not over yet.
He forced himself to calm down.
He still has a last hope of reversal.
Dimension Wall (Trap Card): Activate only when an opponent's monster declares an attack. Instead of you, your opponent takes the Battle Damage you would have taken from this battle.
The current Dark Magician is like an invincible god of war, immune to any spells, traps, or special abilities, but his master is not.
The moment Pharaoh attacks, the spell damage will be reflected back to the Pharaoh himself…
"Activate the Spell Card 'Dark Magic Attack' from my hand." Yugi said calmly, "This card can only be activated when there is a 'Dark Magician' on my field.
Destroy all Spells and Traps on the opponent's field! "
Before the High Priest of Darkness could respond, he saw the Dark Magician's staff sweeping gently, and the torrent of magic power blasted out with jet-black lightning. The realm of black magic enveloped his side, and the crackling current was like thousands of short arrows, blasting the stone slab he was covering into riddled with holes.
The magic field continued to expand, sweeping the entire sealed space! The immortal souls were screaming, and countless ghosts were struck by black magic lightning. The realm of the undead faded away, and the powerful "Zombie World" was reduced to ashes and disappeared under the power of just one spell.
The High Priest of Darkness stood there blankly, looking at the empty field in front of him, speechless for a long time.
He knew it was all over.
His desires, his ambitions, and everything he worked hard for.
After casting the spell, the Dark Magician stood in front of the Pharaoh, holding his staff horizontally in front of his chest. Although it was only a slender figure, it was like an insurmountable moat.
"Is this… the power of the supreme and strongest magician? Mahad?" He murmured.
"The last blow." Yugi raised his hand, "Dark Magician, attack directly."
The Dark Magician raised his staff.
The fluctuations of magic power spread, and the light bullets of the spell surrounded by the black electric current blasted out, and exploded in the chest and abdomen of the High Priest of Darkness head-on, causing the priest to fly out on his back, the mask cracked and the cloak ruptured, and the whole person flew into the field like a piece of rag outside.
