What era is it, still traditional card making

Things turned out pretty much as they expected.

For the Seed of War, finding its right hand is the most critical thing.

Ye Qiong glanced at Valen and saw her shaking her head. Then he decisively chose to fly towards the direction of the palace.

Kelly has successfully attracted the attention of the war giant. What they have to do now is not to provide support, but to find Mars' heart as soon as possible. As long as the heart is destroyed, there is a high probability that the body of the war giant will fall.

Soon, they returned to their starting position.

Valen held the sword of Dutrane in his hand and looked around.

As long as the sword glows, she will immediately swing the sword to attack.

At this moment, she was like a human radar, constantly searching around, but unfortunately, the Sword of Dutlaner did not respond at all from beginning to end.

Valen looked at Ye Qiong with an inquiring look, hoping that he could give him some advice.

In fact, the reason why Ye Qiong came back here again was very simple, that was because of the answer given by the prayer:

"Royal Palace."

He felt that the reason why the prayer spell only said these two words was not only because the palace itself was the body of the Seed of War, but more importantly because there might be some secrets of the Seed of War hidden here.

Judging from Valencia's performance, did he misjudge it?

Ye Qiong looked around. Since the palace had already grown legs and moved away, the area in front of him seemed particularly empty. He could almost see the end at a glance.

If there is something hidden here, it must be seen first.

Since there are no clues on the ground, what about underground?

Would the seeds of war have a habit similar to that of the seeds of famine, hiding themselves underground?

After all, it is essentially just a seed. It is quite reasonable for it to take root in the ground and continuously absorb nutrients.

Now they don't have much time to slowly search for dungeons in this area.

Ye Qiong looked at Edas and expressed his thoughts.

After hearing this, Edas quickly nodded in agreement.

Ye Qiong planned to bomb the area to see if there was really any dungeon hidden there. This was the most efficient method for them.

The two of them transformed into their original forms, and continued to spit dragon breath at the area.

Because of their attack, cracks began to appear on the ground. Valen rode on Edas's back and looked carefully below, trying to find some clues.

Suddenly, she found that there was an unusual dent in one place due to Ye Qiong's attack.

She immediately informed Ye Qiong and Edas of her discovery.

After hearing this, the two of them decisively concentrated their firepower on this place and continued to spit out dragon breath.

Sure enough, Valen's judgment was correct.

This place was indeed somewhat unusual. As the dragon's breath attacked, the sunken part became more and more obvious, and a small hole had already formed.

After emitting the last breath of dragon and blasting the small hole open,

Ye Qiong and Aidas landed on the ground and transformed into human form.

The three of them jumped into the small hole without any hesitation.

The tunnel at the entrance of the cave was not very deep, and they landed on the ground in less than five seconds.

Before Ye Qiong could cast the fireball spell to illuminate the area, he suddenly heard Valen's surprised voice:

"Look, the sword of Dutrane is glowing!"

Ye Qiong looked at the sword in Valen's hand with surprise. Since the sword of Dutran was glowing, it proved that their judgment was correct. This was most likely the place where the heart of the seed of war was hidden.

With this in mind, their steps became much more cautious. Ye Qiong took the lead and walked towards the depths of the cave. They could feel that as they went deeper into the cave, the surrounding atmosphere became extremely oppressive.

At this time, a pungent smell came over.

Ye Qiong subconsciously covered his nose and looked forward.

Thanks to the illumination of the fireball spell, Ye Qiong could clearly see that what appeared in front of him were rows of bright red flowers, and the pungent smell just now came from these flowers.

These red flowers have a very strange appearance. It seems that they are not born with this color, but rather they are dyed with blood.

Suddenly, a voice came from the cave.

Valen subconsciously put his hand on Aidas's shoulder and looked ahead nervously.

Ye Qiong looked in the direction of the sound. The one who made the sound was actually just a bat. Unlike the bats outside, this bat was extremely large, two or three times the size of an ordinary bat.

At this moment, it was staring at Ye Qiong and others with its scarlet eyes.

Immediately afterwards, red eyes began to appear behind it, and giant bats continued to gather, trying to drive out these invaders.

Ye Qiong carefully observed these bats. Apart from their size, he did not see anything peculiar about them. These monsters could not even be called monsters.

Monsters have a very obvious characteristic, that is, their bodies can contain and absorb magic power, and then use this magic power to try specific magic.

For example, Earthshatter can use earth magic to release a dungeon to trap its prey, and then use a rock gun to kill the witch.

At the level of monsters, their hunting is no longer just relying on physical combat. They even know how to use their magic to kill their prey. It is for this reason that even ordinary monsters have higher IQs than ordinary wild beasts. They have slowly learned how to practice and become stronger.

When Ye Qiong saw these bats, he subconsciously regarded them as a group of monsters.

But after careful observation, Ye Qiong discovered that there was no magic power in these bats, which meant that these guys were just a group of wild beasts and posed no threat to them at all.

However, the cautious Ye Qiong did not relax his vigilance and decisively blew a breath of dragon's breath towards the bat.

Soon, the bats gathered in front of them were burned to ashes by the dragon's breath.

To be honest, if it was just this level, Ye Qiong didn't understand why these bats dared to stop them? Even wild beasts would honestly choose to make way for the strong when facing an opponent that was countless times stronger than themselves, right?

As soon as this question arose, Ye Qiong got the answer.

After the bats died, a purple mist suddenly rose from their remaining ashes.

For some reason, after seeing this purple mist, Ye Qiong had an inexplicable sense of familiarity. The purple mist in front of him was very similar to the plague released by the Seed of Famine.

Right now they were deep in the cave. If they wanted to avoid the purple mist, they could only retreat temporarily and come back to explore after the mist dissipated. But if they really did that, by the time they found Mars' heart through the cave, the grass on Kelly's grave would be almost three meters high.

Now they must race against time to destroy Mars' heart as soon as possible.

Ye Qiong used the prayer technique to summon another blank card, sealing the black mist in front of him into the card.

Soon, a cloud of purple mist appeared on the card, and a piece of text appeared below it.

[Card Name: Plague Mist]

[Level: Purple Epic]

[Type: Magic Card]

[Introduction: The mist contains the power of the source of the plague. If you come into contact with this mist rashly, you will be corroded by the plague and your body functions will evolve in an unknown direction.] [Effect 1: Unknown evolution]

[Transform all monsters on the field. The transformed monsters will randomly receive one of the following three effects: 1. They will not be battled. The effect is sent to the Graveyard. Every time the controller of this monster ends his turn, the duelist must discard a card to the Graveyard. 2. They are directly sent to the Out of Area. After three turns, the owner of this monster needs to send five cards from the deck to the Graveyard, and then return the monster to the Card Area.

3. Send it directly to the cemetery, and then summon an equal number of "nameless zombies" according to the number of cards sent to the cemetery. (Note: No one knows what will happen after contacting the black fog, whether it will turn into an immortal monster or a zombie that loses its mind. If you want to know the result, you can only know it after you personally contact it.)]

After seeing the effect of the card, Ye Qiong already roughly knew what abilities these purple gases possessed.

After knowing the power of the purple gas, Ye Qiong became even more certain that this cave was the nest that the Seed of War carefully prepared for itself.

He handed the card to Aidas and Valen. After reading it, the two girls showed fearful expressions at the same time.

For them, death is not the most terrifying thing, but the unknown is.

Adas handed the card back to Ye Qiong, and then asked:

"The Sword of Dutlaner is already glowing. How about we just release the power of the Sword of Dutlaner here and destroy this place?"

Edas's considerations made sense. If he continued to move forward, he would inevitably be attacked by the seeds of war.

A situation like the one just now is easy to deal with, but what if the Seeds of War set up a hidden trap and caused them to be contaminated by the plague fog?

Although the prayer spell may be able to expel the effects of the plague fog, it will definitely consume a large amount of star power. Ye Qiong does not want to use the stored star power for such purposes.

After a little thought, Ye Qiong decided to ask the person concerned for his opinion. He looked at Valen and asked:

"What do you think? Do you want to continue exploring?"

The sudden question made Valen stunned for a moment. Why did he come to ask her opinion at this time? Shouldn't he ask for the opinion of the Sword of Dutrane?

When she thought of this, she subconsciously looked at the sword in her hand.

Then she soon discovered that the Sword of Dutlaner suddenly began to flash. This had happened before, and this is how Kelly understood the meaning of the Sword of Dutlaner:

"It's all right. It's up to you. You can choose it yourself."

Sometimes, the words "it's up to you" are the most difficult to make a decision.

It's like you take your girlfriend out shopping, and when it's time for lunch you ask her what she wants to eat.

If your girlfriend says it's up to you at this time, it definitely doesn't mean that you should find a restaurant you like and eat there. It's because she thinks you should understand what she means and there is no need for her to say too much. If you really make the wrong choice, the consequences will be very serious.

This is the choice that Valen is facing at this moment.

Although the Sword of Dutran was flashing, she couldn't just casually assume a stance and then use up all the power stored in the Sword of Dutran, right?

This time, Valen thought for longer than ever before.

About two minutes later, she raised her head and gave her answer:

"Just keep going."

"why?"

Ye Qiong asked back, he wanted to know what the basis of Valen's judgment was.

"If I were the owner of this cave, when I discovered the intruder, I would definitely not send out a group of scary-looking bats to alert the enemy. I am more inclined to believe that the Seed of War did not actually notice that we had sneaked in here. Now most of its attention should have been attracted by Kelly. This is our best chance to find Mars' heart."

After finishing her analysis, Valen suddenly found that the two people beside her were looking at her with surprised eyes, as if to say:

"When did you become so smart?"

After noticing the gazes of his two companions, Valen immediately became unconvinced:

"No, in your eyes, I am just a puppet of the Sword of Dutlaner, without any self-judgment, right?"

Ye Qiong heard this, hesitated for a moment, and then answered:

"How is this possible? Well, let's not dwell on this matter for now. Now that you've said so, let's move on."

"You hesitated just now, didn't you? Also, this change of subject is too abrupt."

"Well, let's go."

It was Edas who spoke, and she forcibly changed the subject in a more blunt manner.

Looking at the half-dragon girl's expression that could not hide her smile, Ye Qiong's mouth corners unconsciously raised a little.

Now was not the time to chat, so Ye Qiong decisively led the team to the front and continued to explore the cave.

Perhaps Valen's judgment was correct. They only encountered some bats along the way, and other than that, they did not encounter any obstacles at all.

Perhaps these bats were just the product of being infected with the plague, and had nothing to do with their appearance in the cave.

The Seed of War might be in a special state now. It didn't even notice that an outsider had entered the cave.

About ten minutes later,

Ye Qiong and others came to the end of the cave. (End of this chapter)
