RBCT Chapter 60 Youth
Chapter 60 Youth
Chen Sui went to hand in the form, and Chen Che didn't follow. Instead, he went to the card club's booth to see if anyone was playing cards.
When I went over to take a look, there were far fewer people. When I got closer to the table, I found that they were playing Yu-Gi-Oh! Although it is one of the three major TCG games in the world, it is still relatively niche in China.
However, Chen Che recognized the person playing cards; it was his roommate, Wang Guangyu.
Chen Che greeted him, and Lao Wang looked up and nodded slightly in acknowledgment, then stared intently at the player opposite him.
Chen Che followed the gaze and saw a girl with a slightly chubby face and a princess cut hairstyle, who looked very cute overall.
But Lao Wang's focus was clearly not on the opponent at all. The opponent's card pad was the Neo-Universe from GX, so the opponent was most likely using a Hero deck.
In the first round of rock-paper-scissors, the opponent went first, but my hand was also good. I couldn't attack directly in the first round, and with such a good hand, I figured my turn would be another bloodbath.
The other person's voice was soft, with a slight lisp: "Is there something you need? If not, I'm about to begin?"
Old Wang had a multiplier G in his hand. At that time, the environment wasn't that popular yet, but it was still a burst deck. He knew how disgusting it was to eat a G, so he didn't hesitate to open it and put one into the deck.
However, it's better to wait until the opponent is about to make a special recruitment and then chain open G. This way, you're guaranteed to gain a card and the opponent will have to consider making a compromise move.
But what if the other party is a special recruit who is not as good as a chain?
After thinking about it, Old Wang cautiously shook his head.
"Alright," the opponent sighed regretfully, "then I'll set five cards in my back row, end of turn."
Old Wang: "?"
Is that right? That's not how you play Yu-Gi-Oh!!
You should have used the hero's arrival to search for the special recruit Sky Knight, then let me take a G, let me draw a beautiful one, and then show an expression as if you've eaten a dissertation, turning the explosive exhibition into a scene of figuring out how to compromise.
How come you passed by swiping five cards directly?
That's not how you play Yu-Gi-Oh!!
Old Wang's turn, after a series of fancy search and setup steps, finally allowed him to Synchro Summon the Curator. This is the core of the Waste 2 deck's operation; you can draw one card with each Synchro Summon. Partner cards are just so useful.
But the opponent didn't make any moves during this time. It's impossible that all five of their backcourt players were fake.
What if the opponent isn't familiar with the "Scrap 2" deck?
As long as the curator approves, his storytelling spirit will be greatly satisfied, and he can finally shout out the entrance line of the Meteorite Dragon in the same cool way as in the anime.
"Synchronization Summon, TG Super Librarian!"
Old Wang wanted to continue, but he heard the other person chuckle slightly and then interrupt, "Wait!"
"You said you summoned the curator, right?!"
"Open the card! Bottomless Trap Hole! Turn the Curator into an inside defense position, and the position cannot be changed."
Wang Guangyu was dumbfounded. The other side not only knew where to interrupt, but also knew where the weak points were, and did not waste any resistance.
Once you fall into the rhythm of the underworld, you have no room to resist, and so you lose the first round in this tug-of-war.
In the second round, the losing side chooses whether to go first or second.
Wang Guangyu chose to go first without hesitation, since the Explosive Exhibition deck requires going first to tell the story. It was the same story, but this time the curator appeared without any pressure.
Just as he was about to begin his storytelling, the other person interrupted him with a sly glint in their eyes and a mischievous grin, saying, "Wait, I'm activating the G-Force's proliferation!"
Wang Guangyu was taken aback.
Damn! She's using this card too? Or did she just get a new one from Side?
Now that the curator has appeared, it would be a huge loss to just let it pass like this. Making a compromise doesn't seem to make any sense. It would be better to just go for the top and blow her up. Then I'll have a three-color defense in both the front and back rows. How can the opponent beat me?
"When the gathered stars unite as one, new bonds will illuminate the future and become a shining path!"
"Exceeding the limits of accelerated synchronization, the light of evolution, Meteorite Quasar Dragon!"
Wang Guangyu's expression was one of satisfaction as the Meteorite Quasar Dragon made its grand entrance. The Meteorite Quasar Dragon is also known as the Crying Quasar Dragon because it has the effect of making opponents cry.
My turn is over.
Old Wang looked at the opponent's hand full of cards, but his face showed a calm and fearless expression. He had three-color cards in both his front and back hands. If the opponent could beat him, he would take the whole table on the spot.
"Young man, it's your turn. Why aren't you moving? Don't you like moving?" Old Wang asked in a kind tone.
The other party, who had been silent until now, finally couldn't hold back his laughter: "Hehe, now, I'm going to summon this powerful monster."
"Alright, let me see how powerful it is," Wang Guangyu said with a disdainful laugh.
"Release your Shooting Quasar Dragon and another monster on your field. I will give you this powerful monster."
"What?! Marseille?"
"That's right, I'm going to summon the Lava Demon to your field!"
"..."
They lost the second game too.
Including the first game which we also lost, we've lost two of the best-of-three series, so there's no point in playing the third one.
Wang Guangyu sighed and stood up to give up his seat, when he heard the other person say, "Hey buddy, let's play another round."
"I've already lost, there's no need for a third game."
"It has nothing to do with winning or losing, it's just a simple card game. I want to see Meteor Dragon appear again!"
"All right."
Wang Guangyu sat down again and began the third battle, a battle in which winning or losing had become meaningless.
After calming himself down, Lao Wang drew his starting hand from his deck. He was going first again. In a true duelist, everything was inevitable; he would always have all the necessary moves and cards in hand...
Blanch it! Why hasn't it been touched?
Wang Guangyu, speechless, pretended to cover up a dead person's resurrection: "End of round."
The opponent's turn.
"I summon the Photon Slayer, and then I normally summon the Sky Warrior!"
As long as a deck includes a hero, it's a hero deck, right?
"Two cards stacked together, Xyz Summon Rank 4, Demon Cockroach!"
In 2012, the anime had entered the Xyz era. In order to promote new cards and new summoning methods, DogK not only added a large number of Synchro core cards to the ban/limit card list, but also released a large number of Xyz cards that were designed to counter Synchro.
Cockroaches are one of the nightmares of Synchro Summoning.
Fortunately, the opponent's damage wasn't high enough to reach 8000, so I was able to survive until the next round.
However, the opponent set several more cards in the back row during the second phase of the main game, making the situation dire. The game was about to become a dead end, and defeat in the third game was imminent.
but.
My deck, my card spirits, and I are of one mind! Let her see the bond between me and my deck!
This is my struggle for dignity! A flashy gacha pull!
Wang Guangyu's eyes lit up as he looked at the card he had just drawn!
It's here! A localized hurricane!
"I activate the Book of the Moon! Turn the cockroach into face-down defense position!"
"Oh wow, not bad, you got past the frontcourt so easily, but I still have so many backcourts to go," the cute girl opposite said smugly.
"Hmph, what if the first card on my right is a localized hurricane? How would you deal with that then!"
"A localized hurricane has formed!"
"What!" The other party pretended to be panicked, then flipped over a few face-down cards and glanced at them. One was a divine declaration, and the other was a skill draw. As long as the old man could counter the hurricane, and then the skill draw was activated, he could still control the situation.
but.
The girl shook her head, regretfully placing her hand on the deck, indicating that she had given up.
"You win."
"Hmph, this is the bond between me and my deck!" Wang Guangyu said smugly.
The girl extended her hand and calmly and friendly introduced herself: "Hello, classmate, my name is Qiao Yu."
Wang Guangyu was taken aback, glanced at her warily, and reached out to gently grasp her fingertips, without taking her entire hand in his.
"Could we add each other on WeChat? I'd like to discuss deck building with you. I'm not sure how many Sky Knights I should include in my main deck," Qiao Yu said with a shy smile.
Hmm? Wang Guangyu's heart skipped a beat.
What's the plot?!
Just like in the anime... I knew it!
Wang Guangyu immediately sneered, "Add me as a friend?"
"What, you won one hand and now you want to add me as a friend to keep mocking me?"
