Chapter 284: Resting Place (Ch 284)

“Damn it, I found out that we can actually duel in the ruins!?”
Arriving at the ancient duel arena, Judai was annoyed to see You Xuan and the chief gravekeeper already standing on the left and right respectively.
Why do I feel like You Xuan always gets ahead of me every time I have a card…
“However, You Xuan was able to bargain with the other party in a situation like that just now…” Marufuji Sho couldn’t help but say.
Hayato nodded: “Indeed, he seems to be so calm at all times. I was almost scared to death just now…”
Daitokuji held the cat and looked at Youxuan, speechless for a moment.
He also increasingly felt that this student was not only a genius, but also seemed to be confident about everything.
This matter was clearly planned by me secretly, and I was the one who deliberately led everyone to the designated location.
But why does it seem like everything is following You Xuan’s script now?
“Duel!” x2
【You Xuan, LP 4000】
[Gravekeeper, LP 4000]
“I attack first, draw a card.” The head of the graveyard said in a deep voice, and directly drew two cards from his hand, with the face-down defense position covering a monster, and then placed a card on the back field. The turn is over.”
“Then it’s my turn, draw a card.”
You Xuan directly showed the card he had drawn.
“Magic Card ‘Angel’s Charity’, draw three cards from your deck, then choose two cards from your hand and discard them.”
You Xuan draws a card and sends two cards in his hand to the graveyard.
“One of the cards you discarded is ‘Compensation Treasure Card’. This card is sent from your hand to the Graveyard and you can draw two cards from your deck.” (Original card)
“Humph, you’ve accumulated cemetery resources right from the start.” The head gravekeeper sneered, “In the place of eternal rest, any attempt on the deceased will not be tolerated.”
You Xuan could probably guess what he was thinking, most likely –
——What I am fighting for is a pile of graves.
This is the kind of confidence that the Gravekeeper deck gives him.
But You Xuan just smiled and said, “Then summon the ‘Abyss Soldier’.”
[Abyss Soldier, Attack Power 1800]
“Effect of Abyss Soldier: Once per turn, discard a Water monster from your hand and return a card from the field to its owner’s hand.”
You Xuan sent a card from his hand to the graveyard.
“I’ll send the Water monster Killer Snake to the graveyard, and return the face-up card in the backfield to my hand.”
The Abyss Soldier swung his trident, and a stream of water burst out, covering the opponent’s Gaika in the backcourt.
“Then chain activate this face-down card, the Trap Card ‘Needle Worm’s Nest’.” The head of the gravekeeper said, “Send the top five cards of the deck to the graveyard.”
The five cards of the chief gravekeeper were sent to the grave one by one, and You Xuanxu looked at him carefully.
Who just said that my act of sending graves was a blasphemy to the deceased?
What this means is that tomb robbers will die, unless we, the tomb keepers, come ourselves, right?
“Then ‘Abyss Soldiers’, attack the covered monsters.” You Xuan said.
The Abyss Soldier flew forward and thrust his trident forward.
[Gravekeeper Summoner, Defense 1500]
The golden trident pierced through his chest, and the summoner staggered back two steps, then exploded with a bang.
When the Gravekeeper Summoner sends this card from the field to the Graveyard, add a Gravekeeper monster with a DEF of 1500 or less from your Deck to your hand.
The Gravekeeper’s deck glowed with golden light, as if it was about to perform a deck search.
“That won’t work.” You Xuan showed another card, “I discard the ‘Skeleton King’ from my hand.
When a Spell, Trap, or Monster effect is activated in your opponent’s Graveyard, discard this card from your hand to negate that effect.”
The ghost of the Gravekeeper Summoner appeared on the field and was about to chant a spell, but then the shadow of the Skeleton King appeared. His summoning ability was immediately locked, and he could only retreat helplessly.
“This is the sacred valley of graves,” You Xuan said with a straight face, “disturbing the deceased and desecrating the sacred valley will not be tolerated.”
The chief gravekeeper: “?”
Although it sounds like it makes sense, why do you sound like it’s my words?
“As a gravekeeper with a sacred mission, I should be punished more severely than others for stealing.” You Xuan said, and drew two more cards. “Three cards are hidden in the backcourt, and the round is over.”
The chief gravekeeper: “……”
Why do I have the illusion that the other party has suddenly occupied the moral high ground when I come to my senses?
“Hmph, then it’s my turn, draw a card.”
The chief gravekeeper drew cards dully.
It’s like he’s saying, okay, I can’t beat you, let’s play cards and see who’s the winner.
“Activate the magic card ‘Pot of Greed’ and draw two more cards from your deck.” The Gravekeeper drew a card, “Then first is this card.
Magic Card – Earth Cut! Destroy the monster with the lowest attack power on the opponent’s field! ”
The ground cracked, and a huge crack suddenly appeared under the feet of the Abyss Soldier. The soldier slipped and fell into the abyss, and was blown into pieces.
“There is only one monster, Abyss Soldier, on the field, so destroy Abyss Soldier.” The Chief of Gravekeepers said, “Then Normal Summon Gravekeeper’s Priesthood.”
[Gravekeeper’s duty, attack power 500]
“The Divine Duty Summoning was successful. You can Special Summon the four-star ‘Gravekeeper’ monster in your graveyard.” The Gravekeeper waved his arm, “Resurrect from the graveyard! Gravekeeper Pagan!”
[Graveguarding Pagan, attack power 1800]
“Then activate the magic card ‘Double Summon’. This turn I can perform two Normal Summons.” The head of the gravekeeper clenched his fist, “Therefore, sacrifice ‘Gravekeeper’s Priesthood’!
Use the divine power to bring divine punishment upon the judge.
——The high priest guarding the tomb, summon!”
[Gravekeeper’s High Priest, Attack Power 2000]
“Huh?” Hayato, who was watching, was surprised, “We only need one sacrifice to summon an eight-star monster?”
“Although the Gravekeeper High Priest is an eight-star monster, when using a ‘Gravekeeper’ monster for a higher level summon, only one sacrifice is needed.” The Gravekeeper said, “And, the priest will gain power from the cemetery attendants!
For every ‘Grave Guardian’ monster in the cemetery, the High Priest’s attack power increases by 200!
In addition to the summoned ‘Gravekeeper Pagan’, there are two gravekeeper monsters sent to the grave by ‘Needle Worm’ in my graveyard, plus the ‘Gravekeeper Priest’ I just sacrificed and the ‘Gravekeeper Summoner’ I destroyed in the last round, a total of four.
Therefore, the High Priest’s attack power increases by 800!”
[Gravekeeper High Priest, attack power 2000 → attack power 2800]
“Next is this card!”
The chief gravekeeper took a deep breath, solemnly drew out another card from his hand, and then held it high.
“The Valley of Sleep that we have guarded for generations, the royal family’s forbidden holy land—
——Field magic-Valley of the King’s Long Sleep, activated!”
The moment the magic card entered the field, even time seemed to freeze.
The surrounding scene suddenly changed, and everything seemed to be frozen in an eternal painting. The valley was surrounded by dense ancient forests, and the treetops were filled with hazy morning mist, as if covering the sacred forbidden area with a transparent veil.
“It’s finally appeared, the holy place where the royal family rests in peace.” You Xuan chuckled, a gleam in his eyes.
That’s it.
This is a must-have artifact.
