The Masked Beast (4)

Previously…

            “I play Shield Crush!” said Syrus. Your Des Gardius is destroyed. Des Gardius is destroyed.

            “Thanks, now I can activate The Mask of Remnants!” said Umbra. It gives me control of your Truckroid.

            “I end my turn,” said Syrus. (2)

            “I switch my monsters to Attack Mode,” said Umbra. Now my monsters attack Syrus directly! Syrus’ LPs drop to 1600. That ends my turn. (6)

            “Here goes,” said Syrus. I play Mystical Space Typhoon! The Mask of Remnants is destroyed and I get control of my monster! The Mask of Remnants is destroyed and Truckroid returns to Syrus’ field. Next, I summon Drillroid (1600) in Attack Mode. Then, I set 1 card face down and switch my Truckroid to Defense Mode to end my turn. (0)

            “I summon Masked Sorcerer (1400) in Defense Mode and end my turn,” said Umbra. (6)

            “Here goes,” said Syrus. I play my face down card, Ring of Life! Your Rogue Doll is destroyed and we get back 1600 points! His LPs rise to 3200 while Umbra’s LPs rise to 6100 and Rogue Doll is destroyed. Then, I summon Jetroid (1200) in Attack Mode. Drillroid, destroy his monster! Masked Sorcerer is destroyed. Jetroid, attack directly! Umbra’s LPs drop to 4900. That ends my turn. (3)

            “My move,” said Umbra. I end my turn by setting 1 card face down. (6)

            “I tribute my Jetroid for UFOroid (1200) in Attack Mode,” said Syrus. Next, I switch Truckroid to Attack Mode. Now my monsters, attack him directly!

            “I reveal my Mask of Impregnability!” said Umbra. My LPs are safe from direct attacks this turn.

            “I end my turn by setting 1 card face down,” said Syrus. (2)

            “Back to me,” said Umbra. I activate another Curse of the Masked Beast, tossing out a second Des Gardius for The Masked Beast in Attack Mode. Masked Beast, destroy UFOroid! UFOroid is destroyed and Syrus’ LPs drop to 1200. Another UFOroid appears.

            “When UFOroid is destroyed, I can play another one from my deck,” said Syrus

            “That ends my turn,” said Umbra. (4)

            “Here goes,” said Syrus. I play Power Bond, sending the UFOroid I control and the Warrior Dai Grepher in my hand to my Grave for UFOroid Fighter (2900) in Attack Mode.

            “Your monster’s too weak,” said Umbra.

            “Not thanks to Power Bond it’s not,” said Syrus. It doubles my monster’s ATK! UFOroid Fighter’s ATK rises to 5800. UFOroid Fighter, destroy his Masked Beast! Masked Beast is destroyed and Umbra’s LPs drop to 2300. Now Power Bond’s other effect activates, meaning I take 2900 damage.

            “Right and then you plummet to the Shadow Realm,” said Umbra.

            “You forgot about my face down card,” said Syrus. I activate Mirror Damage! Now the damage I would’ve taken is dealt to you! Umbra’s LPs drop to 0.

            “Umbra, no!” said Lumis. The glass under Umbra breaks and he falls but lands on a pole sticking out from the building using his parachute. Alright, it’s time to duel!” said Lumis. I’ll take you down!

            “Bring it,” said Syrus.

            “I’ll begin,” said Lumis. I set 2 cards face down and end my turn. (4)

            “Very well,” said Syrus. I play Polymerization, discarding my Cycroids for Pair Cycroid (1600) in Attack Mode. Pair Cycroid, attack directly!

            “I activate Mask of Weakness!” said Lumis. Your monster loses 700 ATK! Pair Cycroid’s ATK drops to 900 and Lumis’ LPs drop to 7100.

            “I set 1 card face down and end my turn,” said Syrus. (2)

            “I summon Melchid the Four-Face Beast (1500) in Attack Mode,” said Lumis. Next, I play Mask of Brutality, giving my monster 1000 ATK! Melchid’s ATK rises to 2500. My monster keeps the extra ATK as long as I pay 1000 LPs. Melchid, destroy his Pair Cycroid!

            “I activate Cyber Repairer!” said Syrus. It gives you an extra card but protects my monster in battle.

            “Your move,” said Lumis. (5)

            “I play Steamroid (1800) in Attack Mode,” said Syrus. Pair Cycroid, attack directly!
