Who let him play Yu-Gi-Oh!

"The direct attack of the Lightning Emperor Zabolg!"

The lightning gathered in the palm of Thunder Emperor and turned into a ball of lightning that rushed towards Jim.

But Jim didn't intend to take the damage: "Activate the cover card!

Trap Card 'Rival Appears!'

Select a face-up monster on your opponent's field, and you can Special Summon a monster of the same Level as the selected monster from your hand!

Jim's backfield trap flipped open.

"The opponent's appearance effect, choose the 'Lightning Zabolg' on your field!"

Jim clenched his fist.

"Lightning Zabolg is Level 5, so I can Special Summon a Level 5 monster from my hand."

He pulled out a monster in his hand.

"The monster I want to summon from my hand is this one. Show it.

—Maze wall! "

The ground rumbled and trembled, clearly a monster summoned, but it also sounded like a field magic activated. As the ground trembled, the criss-crossing maze walls rose from the ground, like layers of barriers blocking Jim's way.

[Maze wall, defense strength 3000]

"The maze wall, the absolute defense of the thousand-year shield level." You Xuan said, "Then the battle will be rolled back, I won't fight anymore."

Labyrinth Wall, 5-star Mortal Bone, has zero attack but 3,000 defense, which is the same level of combat power as Millennium Shield. This card first appeared in the Labyrinth Brothers deck, and evolved into a labyrinth-themed deck in the future real card environment.

Of course, the maze at this time has not yet become a special field. This is just a high-defense ordinary bone of the rock tribe.

You Xuan: "Two cards are hidden, and the turn is over."

"It's my turn, draw a card!"

Jim said.

"Activate the Spell Card 'Pot of Greed' and draw two cards from your deck."

Jim drew two cards, then raised the corners of his mouth.

Great, here it comes.

Jim looked up and smiled triumphantly.

"Mr. You Xuan, do you know that there are many incredible things hidden in this world?" He said, "Even before the beginning of human history, those ancient fossils buried under the mantle have existed in this world.

Only modern people's science and wisdom can discover this miraculous power from prehistoric times!"

"Fossils?" You Xuan said, "Jim Cook, you are a deep enthusiast of archaeology."

"Ahaha, yes. My duels are the same. The best moment of a duel is when I awaken those dormant powers from the graveyard and return to the field to show off a brand new look after being washed by endless time and years!"

Jim shouted.

"And this romance can be best reflected in my duel through this card.

——Magic Card 'Fossil Fusion'!"

You Xuan narrowed his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth.

It came as expected.

"Fossil Fusion allows you to remove the Fusion Materials determined by the Fossil Fusion Monster from your own or your opponent's Graveyard, and Fusion Summon the corresponding Fossil Fusion Monster!"

Jim said it was the romance of archaeology, and it's true. The effect of this card is just what it says, which is to dig up graves.

Dig your own grave, dig the opponent's grave, and steal the opponent's tomb as your own fusion material. This is the biggest feature of fossil fusion.

The real card version retains this feature and further strengthens the fusion monsters summoned by this effect.

For example, monsters formed by fossil fusion will not become the target of monster effects. For example, when a fossil fusion monster is destroyed, it can recycle the "fossil fusion" in the cemetery to maintain its endurance.

But these are new abilities after the real card is enhanced, and the original version in Jim's hand does not have them.

And now Jim is faced with an even more embarrassing problem.

"It's really a fusion method suitable for an archaeology fanatic."

You Xuan smiled and said lightly.

"But it's a pity. For archaeologists, you are now in the worst excavation site."

As Jim finished speaking, he saw that the Fossil Fusion Magic Card that he had just inserted into the Duel Disk and appeared on the field had begun to dim. A burst of transparent lightning flickered, and then the magic card simply went out completely, becoming transparent until it disappeared.

Jim: “!”

What is going on?

"My fossil.?"

Then he looked up suddenly.

Looking at the continuous valley where he was, the gloomy sunlight seemed to be locked in this closed cage.

"Is it because of the venue?" Jim suddenly realized.

"I noticed it." You Xuan said, "The Valley of the Royal Family's Last Sleep is guarded by the guardians of the Royal Family. It is a forbidden cemetery that is absolutely not allowed to be violated by anyone.

Any attempt to dig up graves, resurrect corpses, or destroy cemeteries is strictly prohibited here."

He paused, then smiled towards the cold sunlight and explained in K language.

"In the Valley of the King's Long Sleep, effects that affect cards in the Graveyard are negated, and both players cannot remove cards in the Graveyard from play."

Jim: “!”

What? If you can't remove cards from the graveyard from the game, then doesn't that mean his fossil deck is

Jim immediately realized the seriousness of the problem and gritted his teeth.

"Fossil fusion. Has it been sealed?"

You Xuan said that this was the worst venue for him, an archaeologist, and it was true. The biggest feature of Fossil Fusion was that the graves of both parties were dug to fuse into various fossil monsters. The restriction of prohibiting grave digging was almost equivalent to sealing all the main combat power of his deck.

Even without using Fossil Fusion, Jim's trump card "Earth Giant Gaia Slate" used in the battle against Overlord also requires the removal of two Rock-types from his own graveyard before it can be Special Summoned.

A 2800 attack monster that can be deployed with such simple conditions, and it also has a powerful ability to halve the attack power of the opponent's monster when attacking. Normally, it is a very high-quality and powerful hitter, but in this Valley of Eternal Sleep, even if you draw it, it will just rot in your hand until it dies.

And not only cemeteries are excluded, this valley also prohibits all activities such as cemetery recycling and resurrection, which is also a huge interference.

It is no exaggeration to say that this card alone has blocked most of his options.

Jim suddenly felt a toothache.

As expected of the Duel King, he pulled out a magical weapon that instantly filled up the anger bar. No wonder the opponent just used various search venue effects one after another. This venue is really half the battle once you get started.

"The fossil fusion failed." You Xuan narrowed his eyes, "So what should we do now?"

Jim hesitated for a moment.

"I turn 'Maze Wall' into an attack position."

[Maze wall, defense 3000 → attack 0]

"Then activate this card—"

Jim waved his hand and inserted another card into the back of the duel disk.

"Magic Card 'Shield in the left hand, sword in the right hand'!

Swap the original attack and defense of all monsters on the field's surface!"
