Chapter 61: Counterattack from Desperate Circumstances!
"Don't make baseless accusations!" Besides, Ruan Nuo isn't young anymore; her...things might even be bigger than yours, though of course he wouldn't dare say that out loud.
"Hmph, we'll settle our score later. But you're right, Ruan Nuo, you're really amazing." Nami flashed her little tiger teeth again. "I really made a profit coming to the fourth floor."
Primella asked her, "You're not thinking of giving up, are you?"
"How could that be? We are knights! Knights cannot desert their posts!"
"Haha, you're right!" Primella raised her flag high, pointing it at the three large monsters on the opposite side of the field. "Primella, a heavy armored knight of the Centurion Knights, challenges you in the name of the Starfall Kingdom!"
"Here we go, my turn, draw!" Nami smiled with satisfaction as she looked at the card she drew. "I activate the Spell Card [Black Hole], destroy all monsters on the field."
"I activate the effect of [Stardust Dragon/Explosive], Tributing [Stardust Dragon/Explosive] to negate this card's activation and destroy it." With a wave of her soft, sweet hand, Stardust Dragon/Explosive plunged into the black hole. The next moment, intense starlight erupted from the black hole, which then vanished instantly, while Stardust Dragon soared into the sky and disappeared into the starry expanse.
"I send one Centurion Knight card from my Deck to the Graveyard by banishing 'Awaken, Centurion Knight!' The card I sent to the Graveyard is 'Knight's Bond'."
"Then I banish the [Knight's Magic Defense Sphere] from my Graveyard, and Special Summon a Centurion Knight Synchro Monster from my Graveyard. Monsters Special Summoned by this effect lose 1500 ATK. I Special Summon [Knight Queen Legatia]. If Legatia is Special Summoned, you can draw one card and destroy the monster with the highest ATK on your field."
"I activate the effect of [Tech Attribute Halberd Gunner], negating Legatia's summoning." The Halberd Gunner hurled his halberd, piercing Legatia who was trying to fly out of the graveyard.
"I set a card, then I activate the effect of the card 'Dragon Rider Gargoyle 2' in my hand, Tribute 'Knight King Primeira Chief Centurion', Special Summon Dragon Rider Gargoyle 2, and then I'm going to Special Summon... "
"Wait, in that instant, I activate the Trap Card [Electromagnetic Railgun]. This card can Tribute one Machine-Type monster on my field. For every 1000 ATK of that monster, it can destroy one card on your field. I Tribute my [Tech Gunner] to destroy your [Stand Up, Centurion Knight!], [Dragon Rider Gargoyle 2], Primeira, and that face-down card."
The four iron feathers on Ruan Nuo's back flew to her front and began to transform, turning into four giant oil drum-shaped cannons as the steel tumbled.
The [Technology-based Gunner] transformed into four streams of energy, each flowing into the giant cannon. The theater immediately flashed with purple light, which, compressed by the cannon, shot out with a violent gust of wind, causing the surrounding trees to groan.
Nami's field was instantly enveloped in purple light, followed by a massive explosion. When the smoke cleared, all three cards except the Field Spell Card, which survived due to its effect, were reduced to ashes.
"What? Destroy four cards at once? This deck is really brutal!" Lei Xi and Di Xing both looked shocked.
"However, you've fallen for their trap," Nami said with a smug smile.
"Oh? Is that face-down card the kind that can Special Summon a monster if it's destroyed? But Ruan Nuo still has 'Tech Genus Gunner/Explosive' on the field, so even if it's Special Summoned, it would be negated and banished," Di Xing said.
Ruan Nuo remained silent, her emerald green eyes quietly watching Nami.
"Hmph, my face-down card is the [Symbol of Atonement]."
"If I remember correctly, [Symbol of Atonement] can banish cards from my field, so why don't I use it?" Ruan Nu tilted her head and asked in confusion.
"Your other face-down card on the field, if nothing unexpected happens, should be a card to prevent destruction, right? I don't want to gamble on that," Nami said proudly, arms crossed.
Ruan Nu blinked her big eyes but didn't answer.
"If a face-down [Symbolic Symbol of Atonement] is destroyed or banished by your effect, I may choose two Centurion Knights with different names from my hand, Deck, Graveyard, or Banished Zone as Continuous Trap Cards and place them in my Spell & Trap Zone. I chose [Heavy Knight Primella] and [Shadow Knight Chimera]."
I see. The effect of [Tech Gunner/Explosive] cannot be used on placed cards.
"So what? You still have to specially summon the Knight Emperor in the end, right? The moment I summon him, I'll activate the effect of [Technology Attribute Halberd Gunner/Explosive Body]," Ruan Nuo said, puzzled.
"That's true, but I've already figured out how to win," Nami declared confidently, her icy blue eyes gleaming with confidence. She crossed her arms, and the four railguns began to spread outwards. Their height was hard to say, but their imposing presence was 2.2 meters tall.
"Since my Centurion Knight monster left the field due to your card's effect, I revive [Knight King Primella Chief Centurion] from my Graveyard."
"At this moment, I activate the effect of [Tech Gunner/Explosive], negating the Special Summon of [Dragon Knight Atreus] and banishing all monsters Special Summoned by you."
Lei Xi said, "Great! With [Knight Queen Primella Chief Centurion] out of the picture, she can't keep changing her mind." Di Xing, however, looked grave. "This was all part of that Nami's calculations. Ruan Nuo's situation has been resolved."
"I Special Summon 'Heavy Knight Primella' and 'Shadow Knight Chimera' from my Spell & Trap Zone. When 'Heavy Knight Primella' is successfully Special Summoned, I can add one Centurion Knight card from my Deck to my hand. I added 'Hand Knight Tredia' to my hand..." Ruan Nuo had no cards left to stop Nami's unfolding strategy, and Nami began her rapid-fire monologue.
"I usually summon [Knight Tredia], then I adjust the star levels of the four-star [Heavy Knight Primella] and the four-star [Shadow Knight Chimera], 4+4=8, and then I use Synchro Summon."
Seeing Chimelia, with her golden hair and eyes radiating dark energy, pressed close to Primela, Tredia became jealous and started biting her handkerchief again. Chimelia ignored her and directly merged into Primela's body.
"When the heartbeats of friendship resonate, the pink flames will transform into an inexhaustible force, and a new knight will ascend the stage. Ride forth before the month's end! [Knight Queen Primella, Chief Centurion]" The mature version of Primella makes her return.
"I feel like their friendship has gotten a little sour," Lei Xi complained.
"Same here," Di Xing sighed, rubbing his forehead. "Speaking of which, Chimelia really does look like Lunala. Would Lunala look like this if she were a female version?"
"When the effect of [Miracle of Light] is activated, I draw a card when I Synchro Summon a monster." Another card came to Ruan Nuo's face.
"Because I have a Centurion Knight Synchro Monster Special Summoned on my field, I banish 'Knight's Bond' from my Graveyard and place 'Dragon Knight Atreia' from the Graveyard onto my field."
"Activate the effect of [Knight King Primera Chief Centurion]: Add one [Oath of Honor] from your Deck to your hand, then destroy [Tech Gunner/Explosive] on your field and [Knight Tredia] on my field."
