Showdown, my deck is from the East.

Chapter 1238 Heaven and Earth Locked! The Beginning of the Venerable-Level War

The cannons were getting hot; the Ice Clan's advanced cryogenic shells and liquid cooling were no longer effective.

The gun barrel made a sound of being overloaded.

The 7th Artillery Company of the Rusty Revolutionary Army is unloading ammunition at the front line.

The virus multiplied by 48 billion units within the fire control area.
"Xu Jin barrage! Cover coordinates S7 to S9." The artillery commander's core processor was running at full speed, issuing cold commands.

"Sir, the basic mathematics has been severely contaminated, and the ballistic computer has failed."

"Use an abacus."

The life support bases and outposts sold by Baiyujing are extremely advanced, but they include such primitive computing tools.

This is the mindset of extreme warfare.
It's hard to imagine just how extreme and terrifying the battlefields they envisioned were.

The remaining cannons roared, their shells trailing flames as they shot into the poisonous fog.

"The target loss is about 3%, and during the artillery fire, it will increase by about 1686%." The revolutionary soldiers calmly calculated the unimaginable numbers: "We're out of ammunition."

From the distant green mist, something extremely evil is about to emerge.

The commander took off his military cap, revealing the messy wires on his head.

"Artillery company, draw your swords!"

The 47th Planetary Defense Brigade was unable to fight such an adversary, and within two years, the front lines had collapsed.

All the biomass and mechanical parts were defeated and infected, becoming the enemy's bodies or food.

Thump, thump!
The drumbeats ahead were earth-shaking.

From within the green mist, three terrifying, fused behemoth knights slowly emerged.

A mountain-sized monster, a mixture of flesh and steel.

The processors of the revolutionary soldiers were running at full speed.

It turned out to be a multi-legged behemoth formed from a mixture of deceased comrades and weapons.

The distorted faces of countless fallen comrades and civilians on the body surface wailed and struggled, trying to break through the fused flesh walls, only to be forcibly sewn together and devoured by writhing metal tentacles and proliferating bone spurs.

The organism merged with more broken cannon barrels, twisted fighter jet wings, and shattered heavy tanks. Every movement of the behemoth was accompanied by a piercing metallic tearing sound and a tooth-grinding sound of flesh and bone being ground together.

In an extremely despairing scene, three high-ranking knights ride on the defeated soldiers of the war—three divisions—towards the artillery camp.

Plague Demon Lord and Sun-Destroying Knight
These fully-equipped Maelstrom Space Marines, "blessed" by the Stairway to the Sun, are a thousand times more powerful than their mounts!
They don't even need to deliberately radiate power; their mere "existence" pollutes reality.

Wherever it passed, the air condensed, the light distorted, and the earth quickly withered and decayed.

The revolutionary soldiers in the artillery company felt every part of their bodies screaming to escape, but those that couldn't escape were rapidly rusting and decaying.

Their target was certainly not the artillery position.

An artillery company is hardly worth a knight's attention, but there is no doubt that the Rustfire Revolutionary Army's Seventh Artillery Company will become an insignificant part of the cavalry's journey in the next second.
The revolutionary soldiers still drew their swords in the face of such a creation.

The Spark Project has been running for 43 months now.

Evil spirits roam freely, while immortals retreat from the world.
Presumably, the star gate has already been completely closed, and the sparks of civilization, along with the Jade Capital Immortals, should have already safely evacuated for the time being.

Thankfully, there is still a future.
"Kill!" The commander allocated the last of his energy to the melee module, and the armor began to spew steam.

But before the soldiers could respond...

The Plague-Corrupting Demon Lord and the Sun-Destroying Knight suddenly looked up at the sky as if they had received some kind of order.

The colossal mount suddenly mutated into something resembling a pterosaur, tore through the sky, and flew away!

"What happened? The demon army has retreated?" Even the commander himself was bewildered.

"Report, Commander!" The communications system stammered, "Operation Fireseed has not been executed! There has been no retreat! The Huaxia people have launched an attack from Yanyun!"

Fire and destruction.

The Golden Crow departs its stealthy state and enters its final assault phase. Three hundred years in the clouds, a thousand years of time, ten thousand years of mortal life!

Undeterred, the firebird broke through the darkness and flew toward the only known coordinates!

Heart Moon Fox - Part 4: The ancient battlefield of war.

(Duel Zones Collide!)

(Chaos Rules)

Two Venerable-level beings and one Pseudo-Venerable-level being from the Demon Clan were simultaneously pulled onto the duel table.

On the other side was a "human".

"Hello everyone, you may not recognize me. Let me introduce myself again. I am a human player."

"Your Highness, how have you been?" A female voice suddenly interrupted.

It is clear that a certain demon lord summoned the [Beauty of the Heart] to analyze and translate human language.

“You are very rude, Venus.”

"You're so eager to duel to save your friend?" The voice of the Bewitching Flower came, seemingly unconcerned about Lu Cheng's dissatisfaction: "You can rest assured, you've been chosen. Your friend will be a witness, and will perish after you become the Gardener."

The voice of the Bewitching Flower is full of allure.

"Fight well. Choose a Venerable to duel. If you survive three rounds, you will also be a Demon Lord. The rest of us will witness your path to becoming a Demon Lord. You will see a great being."

Lu Cheng listened patiently, then shook his head expressionlessly.

"I just said that your interruption was very impolite."

"Lu Cheng, do you even realize your current predicament?" The Flower of Bewitching Hearts' voice was tinged with impatience: "I..."

"Get out of here," Lu Cheng interrupted her casually.

As soon as the words were spoken, the Flower of Bewitching Hearts was subjected to immense pressure and immediately transformed into a card, which floated lightly onto the table.

Before the game even started, the Demon King was already suppressed without even playing a single card.

"Gentlemen, I am Lu Cheng, a human player. I have many titles, the King of Chang'an being just one of them. Currently, I am the ruler of the Southern Heaven and the successor of the Northern Dipper." Lu Cheng's voice was calm: "My senior brother Zhuge once taught me that the world, after a long period of unity, will inevitably divide. Now, the alarm has rung, the time has come. As your junior brother, I will carry on the Prime Minister's legacy and invite this world, after a long period of division, to unite!"

(Card Event - Golden Crow Strike)

High-energy stars and galaxies dissolve, releasing massive amounts of photons.

It temporarily illuminated the entire central universe.

In the instant the universe lit up
This blade of light swept across tens of thousands of stars.

The long-lost civilization was thus briefly exposed.

But that's not the point. In that brief instant of the photon burst, monitoring stations across the universe saw a massive, hidden "creation."

I saw mountains and rivers, I saw the sun and moon, I saw time connected end to end, all coming together.

That's an amazing ring!

The Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties, the Qin, Han, and Wei dynasties, and the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties seem to be connected together.

The Yellow River and Yangtze River flow around it like a jade belt, supported by the majestic Kunlun and Tai Mountains, while the sun, moon, and stars revolve in a cycle, like a precise clock face.

Bronze cauldrons are being cast, beacon fires are burning on the Great Wall, and the magnificent Tang Dynasty robes are fluttering in the breeze.
They are proclaiming to the world that a revitalized civilization is rising.

In an instant, the world went dark again. Was it an illusion?

The Golden Crow underwent another spiritual fusion reaction, causing the Heart Moon Fox star system to disappear—yet another cosmic-level photon observation.
The golden crow, like an arrow piercing the clouds, parted the mist.

This time, all the observation stations briefly but clearly saw the super war ring that locked half of Central Continent across the entire timeline, geographical location, and dimensional space.

Above it, thousands of troops were arrayed.
