Chapter 1257: Solemn Old Man Says Nope
Stardust Dragon negated the self-destruction, so Placido was still a bit uncomfortable.
If the Meklord Emperor could not be summoned, then with this deck, if he wanted to launch an attack, he could only summon the Meklord Emperor's right hand to slap the opponent.
But it didn't matter!
This time Placido's luck was not bad. Even if the first self-destruction attempt was countered, he still had a second plan!
"Open the set card!"
Placido shouted, and the second card flipped over.
"Trap Card ‘Destruct Potion'!"
Yusei said in a deep voice: "That trap is…"
"By destroying a monster I control, I gain Life Points equal to its ATK." Placido shouted, "I will destroy the ‘Wise Core' on my field!"
"But the attack power of the ‘Wise Core' is 0, thus it will not restore LP even if it is destroyed." Yusei thought, "Does it mean that you have to destroy your monster at all costs?"Brother Crabhead said that he had played cards for so many years, and this was the first time he had seen such a situation. The opponent actually tried so hard to blow up his own card…
"That core is the key to the activation of the ‘Meklord Emperor' deck." Behind him, Yuei Vu said slowly, "That deck must blow up this egg before it can be deployed.
Otherwise, he will have a hard time even removing the Junk Synchron."
This was not Yuei Vu exaggerating. If five parts of the Meklord Emperor could not be assembled, the highest attack power among the regular parts of the Meklord Emperor was only 1200, and the attack power of the Junk Synchron was 1300…
Stardust Dragon needed to sacrifice itself to negate the effect of destruction, so it could only be used once per turn. Now that Stardust Dragon had temporarily left the field, Placido finally got what he wanted and blew up his extremely annoying egg!
"The moment the Wise Core is destroyed, its effect is activated!"
Placido's confidence soared.
Since the egg was successfully blown up, his victory is an unshakable fact!
"When the ‘Wise Core' is destroyed by a card effect and sent to the Graveyard, destroy all monsters I control!
Then Special Summon 1 each of ‘Meklord Emperor Wisel Infinity', ‘Wisel Top', ‘Wisel Attack', ‘Wisel Guard', and ‘Wisel Carrier' from my hand, deck, or graveyard!"
"Summon five parts in one go?" Yusei was surprised.
"That's right!" Placido laughed, "Meklord Emperor is a ‘Synchro Killer'. The moment it appears, a stupid duelist like you who uses Synchro Monsters will have no chance of winning!"
"Meklord Emperor can absorb a Synchro Monster on the opponent's field every turn as an Equip Card." Yuei Vu explained, "The attack power of the equipped Synchro Monster will be added to the Meklord Emperor."
Yusei was surprised: "Such a powerful effect?"
He could already imagine that if his Stardust Dragon was absorbed, not only would the opponent's attack power soar to a terrifying level in one breath, but his field would instantly become empty!
No wonder it was called a "Synchro Killer". It did have a terrifying power that could instantly wipe out the combat ability of a Synchro user.
But…
Fortunately, he was one step ahead today.
"Small problem." Yuei Vu said, "Just don't let him summon it."
"I understand." Yusei nodded and waved his hand, "Counter Trap – Solemn Warning!"
Placido: "!?"
What the hell?
"When a monster would be Summoned, OR when a Spell/Trap Card, or monster effect, is activated that includes an effect that Special Summons a monster: Pay 2000 LP; negate the Summon or activation and destroy it!"
[Yusei, LP 4000 → LP 2000]
"Therefore, I pay 2000 life points to negate the effect of "Wise Core"!"
Placido: I want to summon the Meklord Emperor!
Solemn Old Man: Nope.
Placido:……
Placido was a little confused.
He finally succeeded in blowing up the Wise Core, and seeing that his invincible Meklord Emperor was about to appear, but it was strangled in the cradle again. The Iliaster Emperor couldn't help but fall into deep thought again.
He stared at the long sword on his D-Wheel that had transformed into a duel disk, and an idea popped up in his mind involuntarily.
Maybe… let's just pull out the sword and chop him up?
Damn, I can't summon my invincible Mecha Emperor, can you believe it?
Yusei was not polite either: "Then open the set card: Trap Card – Stardust Flash! Target 1 ‘Stardust' monster in my GY; Special Summon it!
Come back, Stardust Dragon!"
Starlight fell again, the light curtain rose from the vortex of the underworld, and the Stardust Dragon flapped its wings and flew high!
[Stardust Dragon, ATK 2500]
"Stardust Dragon, attack directly!" Yusei waved his hand and shouted, "Shooting Sonic!"
Placido's only defense on the field had been blown up by himself, so there was naturally nothing on the field that could protect him. The silver-white impact hit Placido head-on with the sound of a sonic boom, and the latter let out a dull groan, and the skidding tires made a sharp and harsh friction sound.
[Placido, LP 4000 → LP 1500]
However, because of the new rules of "Speed World 2", even if a player received more than 1000 points of damage, their Speed Counter would not decrease.
But Placido was also hit by this blow and was covered in dust. He gritted his teeth with a ferocious look: "Tsk, a mere bug, dare to play these tricks on me.
Don't get too complacent! Wait until I summon the Meklord Emperor…"
Yes, yes, by the time you summon the Meklord Emperor, I'm afraid the daylily will be cold. Yuei Vu complained in his heart.
To be honest, this guy still benefited from the rules of Riding Duel.
If it weren't for the fact that regular Spell Cards could not be used in the Riding Duel, Yuei Vu would definitely give Brother Crab three copies of "Prohibition", and tell him to directly declare "Meklord Emperor Wisel Infinity" at the beginning.
Although all the parts of Placido's Meklord Emperor could be replaced, the main part was always "Meklord Emperor Wisel Infinity". Without this main body, the rest of the parts were literally scrap metal.
"Set two cards, I end my turn." Yusei said.
At this time, Placido's two teammates who were watching from a distance were also a little uneasy.
"Hey, Placido is so confident, but he's completely suppressed!" Luciano shouted.
Jose looked at Yusei on the screen and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
"Fudo Yusei… Although I expected him to be a difficult enemy, is it so difficult to deal with?"
Placido spent so much effort and consumed so many resources, but he couldn't even summon his Meklord Emperor!
This was completely different from what they expected in advance.
And it's not just that the summoning failed this round. The more it continued, the more unfavorable it was for Placido.
He consumed a lot of resources in this turn, but the summoning of the Meklord Emperor still failed. Yusei still had Stardust Dragon on the field, and it could still negate the destruction effect once every turn.
This means that even if Placido drew the second "Wise Core" next, in order to make the Wise Core self-destruct and summon the five-piece set of the Meklord Emperor, he must find a way to trick the Stardust Dragon first.
This was almost impossible for Placido, who had a serious problem of resource consumption.
Jose narrowed his eyes.
"Placido… can't win."
