"Who knows what those nobles think? Maybe he enjoys being watched by a higher ATK Monster."
Indeed, this effect merely doubles the Monster's ATK, but it doesn't restrict Monsters from attacking each other.
Many police officers also expressed their dissatisfaction.
In this dimension, duelists of different tiers receive different levels of treatment.
Just like in the F Dimension, at the Duel Academy, ordinary students can't get powerful cards, which is why the Fusion Army initially recruited students with just a pre-set Ancient Gear Deck to attract hundreds of newcomers.
In this dimension, "powerful" and "rare" cards are monopolized by the Upper City People, causing duelists here to either use some mediocre cards, or like Yusei, gather a deck by physically picking up trash, or they have no choice but to rely on the Upper City to obtain cards.
Many police officers became police officers for this very reason.
"Set another card, end my turn."
"My turn, draw—" Finger casually drew a card.
"At this moment, activate Destiny Hero - Drawhand's effect. When this card is sent to the Graveyard, during the next Standby Phase, activate it. Perform a Special Summon of this card. When this card leaves the field due to this effect, banish it."
"When this card is successfully Special Summoned by the effect of a [Hero]. Both players draw 1 card from their Deck."
"Oh? Hahaha, you're giving me extra cards? Much appreciated. That's quite generous of you."
Tenjo Hikari expressionlessly drew cards with his opponent.
"Oh—I drew quite a useful card." Looking at the card he drew, Finger seemed quite pleased.
"Activate the Field Spell Card, Earthbound Geoglyph!"
Finger's right hand glowed with purple light, while a massive geoglyph appeared in the sky, reflecting onto the ground.
Tenjo Hikari glanced upward once.
Since they weren't in a Racing Duel, the geoglyph's colors weren't very intense.
"Discard this card from my hand." Finger glanced at the card in his hand and picked one with slight disdain, "Discard Steelswarm Sting."
"What are you doing?" Lilos screamed, seeing Finger throw away this card.
When Steelswarm Sting is sent to the Graveyard from the field, destroy 1 face-up Ritual/Polymerization/Synchro Monster on the field.
This was the Fusion Army's strategy for the ongoing conquest of the Synchro Dimension and targeting Tenjo Hikari.
However, Finger didn't care at all—instead, due to Lilos's previously ineffective tactics, he started to doubt Lilos.
After all, the Fusion Army wasn't from this dimension, and Finger had never seen the strength of the Fusion Army before. Given his aristocratic arrogance, he naturally wanted to make a new choice.
"It's not necessary for you to concern yourself with what I'm doing." Finger snorted coldly. "I am Count of Daro Mountain, a Dark Signer, destined to be divine, a naturally noble existence. You need not direct your criticisms here!"
He resented this Lilos who kept pointing fingers.
"Activate Spell Card, One for One, a card that can only be activated by sending 1 Monster Card from the hand to the Graveyard. Special Summon 1 LV 1 Monster from the hand or Deck."
One for One, huh?
Tenjo Hikari nodded slightly.
Speaking solely in terms of development capability, this card is indeed very excellent.
"The card I shall Special Summon from the Deck is—Earthbound Prisoner Ground Keeper!"
A demon sealed to a hammer, its body bound by innumerable chains, appeared on the field, struggling.
Earthbound Prisoner Ground Keeper, LV 1, Dark Attribute, Fiend-Type, ATK 300.
"When this card is Summoned or Special Summoned, Special Summon a [Earthbound] Monster other than [Ground Keeper] from the Deck whose LV is 5 or lower."
"Special Summon Earthbound Prisoner Stone Block Sweeper!"
A whale call echoed, and a blue whale bound with chains slid onto the field.
Earthbound Prisoner Stone Block Sweeper, LV 5, Dark Attribute, Fiend-Type, ATK 1600.
Seeing these familiar Monsters, Tenjo Hikari could feel the soul within his deck trembling with excitement.
It was the Geoglyph Octopus.
Was it…
So it was indeed that [Earthbound Immortal of Sea].
"Use the LV 1 Ground Keeper and the LV 5 Stone Block Sweeper on the field to Synchro Summon—"
"LV 6, Tuner Monster, Coral Dragon."
A dragon leapt from the sea, staring at Tenjo Hikari's back.
Coral Dragon, LV 6, Water Attribute, Dragon-Type, ATK 2400.
Is it actually a Synchro Tuner?
"What? A Synchro Tuner?"
"This is a Super Rare Card…"
"Wow…"
Many of the police officers were slightly excited just seeing this card's classification, and many who had never seen it instinctively wiped their mouths.
Even if they weren't drooling.
A Synchro Tuner card could be worth decades, even a hundred years of their salary, almost impossible to obtain through regular purchases, yet it was freely summoned to the field by Finger!
"The effect of Earthbound Geoglyph! Activate when a Synchro Monster is Special Summoned. Add 1 [Earthbound Immortal] Spell or Trap Card from the Deck to the hand. I'll add—Earthbound Immortal's Roar."
"Then, because Earthbound Geoglyph is on the field, when I Tribute Summon an Earthbound Immortal, I can treat a Synchro Monster as two Monsters for release."
