Chapter 677 - 457: Now, Who Is the Real Calamity (Leaning Back)
Shen Sui didn’t have time to waste, who knows what strange things Alice might do once she’s out of sight.
"Huh?" Li Changgeng hadn’t reacted yet when he saw Shen Sui had already activated the Dueling Device.
With the light shining, the duel officially began.
Shen Sui got the first move.
Without wasting any words, Shen Sui started with [Puppet Creation], discarding [Substitute Puppet - Jamie] and then searched for [Cursed Puppet - Natasha] from the deck.
Next was Shen Sui’s most routine operation, using a normal summon to sacrifice and send the Cursed Puppet to the graveyard.
Then, he activated the effect of the Cursed Puppet in the graveyard.
However, unlike his previous activations of [Shining Debut] or other Spell Cards, this time Shen Sui chose to activate the Permanent Spell Card [Star Magic Array].
Then Shen Sui normally summoned Alice from his hand, transforming her form into [Fire of Redemption - Alice].
"My turn ends."
Shen Sui ended his turn.
Compared to his usual flamboyant storytelling, this first move seemed overly simple.
Although Li Changgeng was puzzled, he quickly drew a card from the deck.
Shen Sui’s words made Li Changgeng really angry.
He was already a person with a bad temper, but in the public eye, he always tried to maintain his image.
But Shen Sui’s obvious disdain still made it hard for him to hold back, and his expression turned very unpleasant.
Fine!
Since you’re in a hurry, I’ll quickly send you away!
Li Changgeng entered the main phase.
He was using a very classic technology-based deck.
Similar to Xu Tianzhi, the most typical feature of a technology deck is its rapid field deployment and high Spirit Value.
Li Changgeng’s deck was no exception.
He first summoned his Soul Card, then quickly began to expand.
Apparently, the field set up by Shen Sui in his first turn didn’t have the ability to hinder him.
This made the corners of Li Changgeng’s mouth rise.
What?
This is all you can do?
I thought you had great skills, but even with the first move, you’re useless.
This kind of person is called the God of Age?
With sarcasm towards Shen Sui, Li Changgeng entered the battle phase. In his eyes, the duel was over; any one of his followers on the field could easily destroy Alice on Shen Sui’s field and empty Shen Sui’s Life Value.
"At the start of the battle phase, activate Fire of Redemption Alice’s effect." However, Shen Sui almost immediately activated Alice’s effect on the field, "If the opponent has more followers than me, Alice can declare an attack, this attack can directly target."
Shen Sui launched a direct attack,
Li Changgeng frowned slightly, but there was no big issue, Alice’s Spirit Value was only over two thousand, which posed no threat to him.
Then, the moment Alice caused damage, Shen Sui flipped open a face-down card on the field: "When I deal battle damage, activate the Spell Card [Insomnia Treatment] from my hand."
"This card can be activated directly from the hand without being set, and can only be activated once per duel. When I deal battle damage, the damage is nullified, and the opponent’s next turn is skipped, then I skip my next draw phase until I take battle damage."
"Hmph! Skip the next turn? You won’t have a next turn!" Li Changgeng snorted coldly.
"Oh? Is that so?" Shen Sui smiled and activated the effect of [Star Magic Array], resetting the usage of [Insomnia Treatment] and returning it to the deck.
Ignoring this, Li Changgeng directly attacked Alice.
The first attack landed on Alice, instantly reducing Shen Sui’s Life Value by 1000.
"When I take battle damage." Shen Sui had a knowing expression, "Activate Fire of Redemption Alice’s effect, nullifying the damage and performing a follower judgment, if the result is a Follower Card, Fire of Redemption Alice is immune to destruction."
Shen Sui flipped the top card of the deck, and the result was indeed a Follower Card.
So Alice stood firmly on the field.
"Hmph! I don’t believe your luck is this good!" Li Changgeng launched a second attack.
However, the judgment result was still a Follower Card, making Alice immune to destruction again.
The third strike!
Alice’s judgment this time was not a Follower Card but a Spell Card.
Li Changgeng’s eyes lit up because his remaining two followers combined for exactly 6000 damage!
"Shen Sui! You lost!" Li Changgeng laughed.
"It’s not over yet." Shen Sui grinned, activating Alice’s effect just before her destruction, "During a failed follower judgment, I can add a Follower Card from the graveyard to my hand."
Shen Sui added [Substitute Puppet - Jamie] to his hand.
This meant Shen Sui would definitely block one attack.
And at this moment, Li Changgeng only had one follower left available to attack.
Unfortunately, due to Fire of Redemption Alice’s damage reduction effect, Li Changgeng couldn’t finish off Shen Sui this turn.
Thus, Li Changgeng’s nightmare began; his deck, best known for using high Spirit Value to pierce through opponents, was completely stopped by Fire of Redemption Alice. Now, he must endure the torment of Shen Sui robbing him of turns.
