Chapter 1277: Lord of the Heavenly Prison
Lord of the Heavenly Prison?
Yuei Vu's eyelids twitched.
Good fellow, what the hell did you do when you went back to the future timeline, Paradox?
Lord of the Heavenly Prison, level 10, attack power 3000. This card was called "Friend of Heavy-Trap Players". It only needed to be displayed in the hand to provide protection resistance to all the pits in the backfield, which was very powerful.
Not only that, it had a second effect. When a Set Spell or Trap card on the field was activated, the "Lord of the Heavenly Prison" in the hand could be directly special summoned, and a Spell or Trap card could be set from the deck to the field. However, that Set card must be removed from the game at the end of the next turn.
Accurately retrieve any Spell or Trap from the deck with no restrictions!
An effect that was so strong that it looked like a fake card.
Yuei Vu narrowed his eyes.
Paradox really brought some good stuff this time. Apart from other things, this "Lord of the Heavenly Prison" was definitely an epic enhancement for the heavy trap deck, which could be regarded as a blessing for nether players.
Now Yuei Vu had more and more motivation to win this game."My turn, draw."
Yuei Vu added the drawn card to his hand, and then slowly showed a card in his hand.
"The effect of ‘Joker's Knight' in the hand is activated." Yuei Vu said, "By sending any one of ‘King's Knight', ‘Queen's Knight', and ‘Jack's Knight' from the deck to the graveyard, ‘Joker's Knight' can be special summoned from the hand.
And the ‘Joker's Knight' special summoned by this effect can be treated as the sent monster's name until the End Phase."
The duel disk performed an automatic search, and a card was automatically ejected from the deck. Yuei Vu took it into his hand, and the deck began to automatically shuffle.
"I sent ‘Queen's Knight' from the deck to the graveyard and Special Summoned ‘Joker's Knight' from my hand!"
A knight with clown makeup appeared on the field, holding a golden sword, and an "X" mark on his shield.
[Joker's Knight, ATK 2000]
"That deck… I see." Paradox understood, "‘Three Musketeers of Summoning God'?"
"Three Musketeers of Face Cards" was a series with "Queen's Knight", "King's Knight" and "Jack's Knight" as its core. The original owner was Atem, and it was one of Atem's favorite series.
And this combination had that moniker because Atem often used it to summon "Osiris the Sky Dragon", so this deck series was often regarded as tied to Sky Dragon. Thus the JQK Knight trio was also known as the "Three Musketeers of Summoning God".
To put it bluntly, it was the Sky Dragon's exclusive sacrifice trio…
"Because ‘Joker's Knight' is Special Summoned by sending ‘Queen's Knight' from the deck, ‘Joker's Knight' can be treated as ‘Queen's Knight' this turn."
Yuei Vu then took the second card in his hand: "Next, I Normal Summon ‘King's Knight'!"
The king was wearing golden armor and a purple cloak, the sharp blade in his hand flashed with a silver-white metallic luster, and his face was dignified and serious.
[King's Knight, ATK 1400]
"King's Knight's effect – When this card is Normal Summoned while there is a ‘Queen's Knight' on my field, I can Special Summon ‘Jack's Knight' from my deck!"
Yuei Vu's duel disk automatically popped out a new card again.
"Show up, Jack's Knight!"
The last member of the sacrifice trio, Jack's Knight, wearing silver-white armor, and holding a sword and shield, half-crouchedly landed between the king and the queen.
Three swords crossed in mid-air, with cold light flashing on the swords!
"The three musketeers were gathered in an instant." Paradox said, "But even these three musketeers are weak in front of the Malefic monster."
"That's not necessarily true." Yuei Vu smiled and slowly drew another card, "JQK trio is a three musketeers with great potential. When they are gathered on the field, they can release various hidden potentials.
For example, like this."
Yuei Vu played the next card: "Spell Card ‘Royal Straight'! By sending 1 ‘Queen's Knight', ‘King's Knight' and ‘Jack's Knight' from my hand and/or face-up Monster Zone to the GY; Special Summon 1 monster from my hand, Deck, Extra Deck, or GY that mentions all three of them!
I Special Summon ‘Royal Straight Slasher'!"
"Royal Straight Slasher?" Paradox's face moved slightly.
The figures of the three musketeers turned into countless golden powders and dissipated. The three forces merged into one and transformed into a burly swordsman in green armor. He wore a solemn and cold white mask, with a silver-white sword hanging from his waist, and his hand on the hilt, as if he wanted to cut any obstacle in front of him into pieces if he disagreed with him.
[Royal Straight Slasher, ATK 2400]
This was the big brother of the "JQK Knight" deck. It was one of the most favored anime-exclusive trump cards by Atem back then!
"Royal Straight Slasher's effect is activated!" Yuei Vu said, "Once per turn, send 5 monsters, with different Levels of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, from my hand and/or Deck to the GY, and destroy all cards on the opponent's field!"
"Nani?" Paradox's face changed slightly.
Oh my God, a Global AOE nuking right at the start?
"I send five monsters from level 1 to 5 to the graveyard from the deck." Yuei Vu briefly showed the five monster cards that popped out of the deck, stuffed them all into the graveyard area, and then waved his hand, "Destroy all cards on your field!"
The ammunition was refilled, and the knight drew the blade from the sheath. The sword flashed in his hand, and with a fierce sword slash, the sword energy pushed toward Paradox's field like a tidal wave, leaving deep grooves on the ground!
The huge "Malefic Rainbow Dragon" was the first to bear the brunt, and was shattered under the domineering royal sword energy.
"Tsk, but the ‘Malefic World' is protected by the ‘Field Barrier' and will not be destroyed by any effect." Paradox frowned, "And with the protection of the ‘King of the Heavenly Prison', the Set card in my backfield will not be destroyed."
"I know." Yuei Vu said, "But the ‘Field Barrier' itself will be destroyed, and so will your Malefic Rainbow Dragon."
As he spoke, the Spell Card "Field Barrier" had been torn into pieces. The milky white shield collapsed and disintegrated under the impact of the vertical and horizontal impact, and dissipated out of thin air.
"Then, at this moment, open the set card: Trap Card – Malefic Tune!" Paradox flipped over another trap, "If a face-up ‘Malefic' monster I control is destroyed by battle or an opponent's card effect: Draw 2 cards."
Then he drew the card in his hand that was in showing state.
"At this moment, the second effect of ‘Lord of the Heavenly Prison' is activated! If a Set Spell/Trap Card is activated, this card can be Special Summoned directly from the hand.
With the power of domination, appear on this field——
——Lord of the Heavenly Prison!!!"
