Yu-Gi-Oh!, the Roar of the Weak

Chapter 447 TCG

Di Xing revealed a confident and fearless smile, "Watch closely, I'm about to launch my counterattack!"

"Because I have the Zombie-Type monster Magera on my field, this card can be Special Summoned from my hand. Come forth, [Zombie Carrion Bird]!"

A strange bird, its body rotting and broken, flew onto the field.

"That's a card from a parallel world? Why can it be used?"

"A card from a parallel world? You mean the TCG?"

When the Earth's starry sky was unfolding earlier, Di Xing noticed two starlight beams sneaking into his deck, but he only realized they were TCG cards when he drew them.

In the original world of Yu-Gi-Oh!, there was a distinction between OCG and TCG. OCG was the original version mainly serving the Asian market, while TCG was the version launched by Capcom for the European and American markets.

Most of the card pools are shared between the two games. The TCG's card update speed is slower than the OCG's. However, there are also some unique decks that are not shared between the two games. In addition, the duel rules of the two games are not exactly the same.

"Logically, TCG cards shouldn't be allowed in this duel, but since you're using the latest OCG cards, let's have a TCG vs. OCG duel!"

Di Xing grinned mischievously. Anyway, TCG cards would eventually be added to the OCG. (Pseudo-Box Corpse Raider: Are you talking about gods and demons??)

"The Special Summon of the Immortal Carrion Bird doesn't require an activation effect, so Star Saint Winter Dragon can't negate it. Then I use its second effect, and during my Main Phase, I return it to my hand."

"Sorry, I have to stop you." Xingyao raised her small hand, trying to nullify the effect of the tattered strange bird, but found that her ability could not be activated.

"What happened?"

"Hehe, the card descriptions in the TCG aren't as accurate as those in the OCG. The effect of the Undying Carrion isn't activated; it's used directly."

Xingyao's beautiful eyebrows furrowed beneath her hood.

"Then I can Special Summon a Zombie-Type monster from my hand. I Special Summon 'Painful Painter' (Level 2/DARK/Zombie/Tuner 400/200)"

"As long as it's on my field, its name will be 'Zombie Carrier'."

"I activate Pain Painter's effect, select up to two Zombie monsters on my field besides it, and upgrade their level to two. I'm going to upgrade Magella to level two!"

Di Xing paused for a moment, then looked at Xing Yao with a smile, "Come on, nullify its effects!"

Xingyao looked at Dixing's confident smile with some apprehension. Right now, she—that is, Dongzuanlong—only had one super-material left: the Star Saint Merchant God's Staff.

It possesses the ability to banish light and dark attribute monsters before engaging in battle.

The Star Saint Winter Drill Dragon's attack power isn't particularly high, only 2700 points. If the Star Saint Merchant's Staff effect is used, the Winter Drill Dragon is easily destroyed in battle.

Right now, Di Xing was eyeing the abundant material surrounding her with a sly look, clearly harboring some ulterior motive.

Xingyao remembers that the monster whose level was changed by the Painful Painter should only be used to Synchro Summon Undead Monsters.

If she hadn't changed Magera's level and had directly performed a Synchro Summon, Dixing could have Synchro Summoned a Level 10 or 9 Undead monster. However, she chose to downgrade Magera to Level 2. As far as she knew, there shouldn't be any Level 4 Undead Synchro Monsters.

So this must be bait. After hesitating for a few moments, Xingyao still chose to let the Painful Painter's effect pass.

Di Xing was instantly dumbfounded. "You actually didn't counteract its effects? Oh no, you miscalculated!"

Xingyao breathed a small sigh of relief; there really was a trap.

However, Di Xing's tone suddenly changed, and he said excitedly, "Then I won't be polite!"

"I used a two-star Magella and a two-star Pain Painter to create a stacking network and Xyz Summon [Demon Nightmare]!"

The scheming Night Demon, still half asleep, entered the arena, rubbing her sleepy eyes as if asking: Where am I?

"What do you want with that card, Ghostly Trick? Although it's not undead, it still belongs to the forces of darkness."

"Hehe, don't rush, she's just a stepping stone. Come and witness my upgraded Xyz Summoning!"

Behind Di Xing, a black vortex suddenly appeared and began to spin rapidly.

"This card can be Xyz Summoned once per turn by overlaying it on top of any Xyz Monster of Rank 3 or lower that I control!"

"Gates of Hell, awaken from the abyss, imprison all things within your belly, ascend, Night Demoness of Deception! Ascend to Xyz Summon! [Dragon Gate]" (Tier 6/Earth/Undead/1100/2800)

A giant skull head suddenly shot out and swallowed the Night Demoness of Ghostly Schemes whole. The Night Demoness of Ghostly Schemes only had time to give Di Xing the middle finger.

"This monster? Is it also from a parallel world?" Xingyao looked at it with apprehension.

"Hehe, this is a new card too. Actually, it's the first time I've seen one like it, but it really can help me solve the problem I'm facing right now."

"I activate its effect, removing any number of its Xyz Materials. Its ATK is increased by 1000 times the number of Xyz Materials of each type (Monster, Spell, Trap) removed, and the ATK of your monsters decreases by the same amount!"

"Danger! I activate the effect of Star Saint Winter Drill Dragon to nullify it."

"Sorry, you can't do it. The Dragon Gate is an earth-attribute monster."

"?What?"

An excess of materials flew into the giant maw of the Dragon Gate, turning into green mist that filled the entire area. This sight inexplicably reminded Di Xing of the evil dragon Spitz that he had seen while playing DNF.

Within the green poisonous fog, the Dragon Gate's power was amplified, its attack power reaching 2100 points, while the Star Saints struggled painfully within the fog, their attack power decreasing by 1000 points each.

"The effect of Dragon's Gate hasn't ended yet! This card can attack each of the monsters you control once this turn!"

"Oh no!"

"Go, Dragon Gate, attack! [Star Saint Dragon - Ptolemy Cluster M7]"

Unable to move in the poisonous fog, the Star Saint Dragon was swallowed whole by the Dragon Gate.

LP8000-2100+1700=7600

The skeletal dragon returned to Di Xing's side.

"Attack [Star Saint Omega Nebula] again."

Platinum's centaur was also swallowed.

LP7600-2100+1400=6900

"Next up is the [Star Knight Star Saint Xia Triangle]!"

Star Saint Xia Triangle struggled to escape the poisonous fog and prepared to fly upwards. However, the Dragon Gate broke through the fog and swallowed him whole!

LP6900-2100+1500=6300

"Come again, disappear! [Super God Star Guardian, Star Saint Ptolemy Cluster w]"

"Wait! I'm activating the Trap Card [Half Damage Unbreakable], which prevents my Super God Star Guardian from being destroyed in battle and halves the battle damage."

LP6300-2100+1700=5900

"Oh dear, you actually chose to protect him?" The dragon returned to Di Xing's side and slowly circled around him.

Di Xing revealed a villainous smile as he looked at Xing Yao.

"Well then, I'm sorry, Miss Xingyao, it's your turn next. Dragon Gate, attack Star Saint Winter Drill Dragon!"
