People in Yu-Gi-Oh! The hyper-converged audience is also integrated

Chapter 418 It's not about the effect, it's about love.

The Dark Knight was reduced to a pile of data fragments under the weight of the iron coffin.

Li Guanqi didn't pause and waved his hand.

"Set connection markers for [Engraving Blacksmith] and [Unicorn Rabbit]!"

The two monsters transformed into two streams of data of different colors, spiraling into the connecting arrow.

"Connect Summon!"

"Come out, Link-2, [S:P Saya]!"

In the dueling arena, a petite figure appeared silently.

“【Xiaoye】?” Anderson’s eyes flickered.

This monster... is a must-have card for agents of the Soul Reaper, but what is the purpose of summoning it at this critical juncture? None of the cards on its field can be targeted.

Could it be that? !

Anderson was startled and looked towards his grave.

Li Guanqi stretched out his arm and pointed to Anderson's graveyard area: "Activate the effect of [S:P Xiaoye]."

"Target the [Fireproof Dragon] in your opponent's graveyard and banish that card!"

Anderson's pupils suddenly contracted, and he felt a chill run through his body.

"Go!" Li Guanqi gave the order, and [Xiao Ye]'s figure flashed and disappeared from the spot in an instant.

The next moment, she appeared above Anderson's graveyard, her kunai drawing a dark rift that tore through space, and the soul of the [Fireproof Dragon] was dragged out of the rift alive.

【Xiaoye】with a burst of strength, flung out the kunai in her hand, and the kunai, along with the spirit of 【Fireproof Dragon】, was swept into another dimension.

For the first time, Anderson's body trembled.

Gone.

Another resistance was dismantled, so quickly and accurately that he didn't even have time to react. He thought Li Guanqi's next move was to use the [Great Sage Coffin], but the sudden use of [Little Night] startled him.

Now, all that remains to rely on is the strongest fortress—[Cooperative Code Speaker @ Fire Spirit Star], which is blessed by [Fire Spirit Demon] and [Code Speaker], possesses complete effect resistance, and can nullify and banish spell/trap monster effects.

Yes, and this too.

As long as the opponent plays [Nightmare's Pain], I can chain [Heartfelt Code Speaker]'s effect to negate and banish that card...

You won't take any damage this round!

The logic is sound; the scales of victory are on his side.

Anderson forced himself to calm down and smooth out the chaotic data flow.

He smiled reassuringly, slowly raised his head, and when he met Li Guanqi's gaze, the confidence he had painstakingly built up instantly collapsed.

What kind of look is that?
There was no mockery, no contempt.

Anderson felt like a patient lying on a cold operating table.

No, he was just a bunch of cold data, but at this moment, he felt a chill that only humans could feel.

That human's gaze was the surgeon's gaze.

Calm, focused, and every movement was so precise that it sent shivers down his spine.

What is he going to do? Is he looking for a scalpel?
“Set connection markers for the two entities, [Xiaoye] and [Red Tear Demon],” Li Guanqi said calmly.

"Connection Summon."

"Link-2, [The Great Coffin of the Carving Demon]."

"Activate the effect of [Great Coffin] to return [Red Tear Demon] and [Soul Coffin] from the Graveyard to the Deck."

"Fusion summon."

"【The Day the Demon Tears】".

The lid of the stone coffin suddenly burst open, and from the endless darkness, a new demon was born.

"The effect of [Day of Tears] Special Summons [Engraver] from the Graveyard."

The [Engraving Blacksmith] in the cemetery crawled out from the cracks in the ground.

Level 6.

【The Day of Tears】is Level Six.

【Engraving Blacksmith】is also level six.

There are two level six monsters...

In Anderson's electronic eyes, the blue data stream froze for a moment.

A sharp glint flashed in Li Guanqi's eyes, and he suddenly raised his hand: "I will stack the level 6 [Day of Tears] and [Engraving Blacksmith]."

The two monsters transformed into two dark streaks of light, one on the left and one on the right, rushing into the pitch-black universe unfolding beneath their feet.

"May eternal sorrow transform into sacred compassion, and descend upon us in the endless cycle of reincarnation!"

"Super Summon!"

"Rank 6, [Eternal Lady Beatrice]!"

Above the dueling arena, divine light dispelled the darkness of the digital world, and at the center of the light, a woman dressed in a nun's habit slowly descended.

Her face was holy, her eyes were closed, and she was praying for the sins of the world, radiating a sacred aura that was incompatible with demons.

The Duel World is really interesting; two demons from purgatory merge into a holy angel.

"【Lady】? Reverse recycling?" Anderson frowned.

Reverse recycling means sending a key card to the graveyard or banishing it, and then using other effects to bring that card back to your hand or Special Summon it.

"Remove one material to activate the effect of [Beatrice]," Li Guanqi said.

"Send [Hubel Elf] from the deck to the graveyard."

Immediately afterwards, he picked out his last hidden card and played it: "Activate Continuous Spell, [Seven Spirits' Gate], add [Chaos Summoning God] from the deck to my hand."

"Discard the card [Creative Summoning God] from your hand to activate the effect of [Seven Essences Unlock].

Special Summon 1 Fiend-Type monster with 0 ATK and 0 DEF from your Graveyard.

A faint purple light rose from the crack in the ground.

Li Guanqi raised his hand and pointed to the source of the light.

"Wake up!"

"[Hubel Elf]!"

A new demon emerged from the earth; it was a pale, ghostly figure with the silhouette of a woman, and its demonic wings on its back became translucent, like shattered glass.

The heterochromatic pupils, one blue and one orange, remained cold, but no longer held murderous intent; instead, they conveyed a deeper, more profound indifference, a detachment that seemed to have seen through life and death.

[Yubel Elf], Attack 0, Defense 0.

A monster that looks harmless on the panel.

Li Guanqi calmly raised his hand and pointed to the demon sprite on the field.

"Activate the effect of [Hubel Elf]".

"From your deck, add one Spell or Trap Card with the name 'Hubel' to your hand."

[Yubel Elf] raised her hand, and a storm gathered in her palm, as if melting space itself.

Everyone knows what he's looking for.

Anderson had finally waited for this moment, and he shouted with a loud laugh: "Release [Code Translator], activate the effect of [Cooperative Code Translator]!"

"Invalid and exclude [Hubel Elf]!"

[Transcoding Speaker] vanished in a streak of light, while [Heart-to-Heart Code Speaker]'s eyes suddenly lit up, drawing a sharp blue light blade that rushed straight towards [Yubel Elf].

Invalid and excluded, this is the most domineering type of Kang in a duel, not even allowing for a final destruction.

"Disappear!" Anderson pointed forward, his face, composed of data, revealing a long-suppressed sense of pleasure.

The electronic lightsaber slashed down.

The [Yubel Elf] sensed the threat, and its semi-transparent body trembled slightly.

In a flash, a graceful figure bathed in golden light silently appeared between the two.

"Release [Ubel Phantom], activate its effect!" Li Guanqi's voice echoed throughout the entire Digital Battlefield, "Change the opponent's monster effect to 'Destroy 1 "Ubel" monster from their hand, Deck, or field.'"

"boom--"

The ethereal phantom stretched out a single hand and steadily caught the full-force attack of the [Heart-Sharing Code Speaker], creating a visible ripple of energy.

"Hahahaha!" Anderson was taken aback for a moment, then burst into ear-piercing laughter. "Overestimating yourself!"

He felt as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world.

"Have you forgotten that [Cooperative Code Speaker] has the [Firm Demon] effect bonus, making it unaffected by the opponent's effects this turn!"

"Die!"

[The Heart-Splitter Code Speaker] roared, its entire body glowing with a layer of blue light shield, a testament to its absolute resistance. Its arms flared, and the energy output of its light blade surged once more, the blinding light threatening to engulf the phantom.

However, Li Guanqi's expression did not change at all.

His eyes, without his knowledge, had also been tinged with an unusual light, one gold and one blue, just like the phantom.

The next second, [Uber Phantom] lit up with the same heterochromatic eyes, and with a casual flick of his left hand, he effortlessly deflected the unstoppable attack of [Heart-to-Heart Code Speaker].

At the same time, its right hand, with its five fingers together like a sharp bayonet, pierced straight into the blue shield that symbolized all resistance!
That hand pierced through the shield as if passing through a curtain of water.

"Click——"

A crisp cracking sound rang out sharply in the silent battlefield.

Tang Xin, Fan Gang, and Ella, who were watching from outside the venue, all stood up from their seats at the same time, their mouths agape: "What?!"

Anderson's maniacal laughter froze, his eyes widening in astonishment, data streaming wildly from his eye sockets: "How could this be..."

Inside the Empty Skeleton Laboratory, Fujiki Ai pulled his hands out of the pockets of his white coat for the first time, staring intently at the screen with narrowed eyes.

"This is--"

On the other side, Baker and the nameless passerby, who were dueling, also heard this strange sound and stopped what they were doing, looking over in horror.

Li Guanqi's expression was icy as he slowly spoke, "It's not an effect."

The hand of [Ubel Phantom], piercing through the shield, slowly approached and gently touched the chest of [Heart-to-Heart Code Speaker], the movement as tender as a lover's caress.

It's love!

"boom--!"

An indescribable, violent shock exploded from the palm of [Hubel Phantom]!

The [Heart-Splitter] was violently blasted away by this force, drawing a shrill arc in the air. The shield with absolute resistance flashed across Anderson's astonished face.

"It's not about the effect, it's about love," Tang Xin repeated softly, a blush rising on her face.

For some reason, Li Guanqi's use of "Yu Beier" gives people a strange feeling.

"Bang!" The effect of [Heart-to-Heart Code Speaker] was not negated and banished from the field, but instead destroyed one [Ubel Elf] from Li Guanqi's deck.

On the field, [Yubel Elf] successfully condensed a card in her palm. She gently rotated her wrist and passed the card from her palm to Li Guanqi.

Li Guanqi took the card, flipped it open, and showed it to Anderson.

Like a doctor showing his scalpel to a patient: "I'm adding [Nightmare of Pain] to my hand."

Anderson's mind hadn't quite caught up yet, and his gaze was blank.

The phrase "It's not about the effect, it's about love" clearly shocked him greatly.

Love is an emotion unique to humans.

"I activate the effect that destroyed [Hubel the Spirit]," Li Guanqi declared, "Special Summon [Hubel] from my Deck!"

He snapped a card, and black light shone from the Duel Disk.

The demon man with 0 attack and 0 defense, [Hubel], has arrived.

Li Guanqi glanced at Anderson. The opponent did not have the effect of chaining [Singularity], so he Special Summoned a Cyberse Monster from the Graveyard.

Looks like my brain is still malfunctioning.

However, [Fireproof Dragon] had already been excluded by him using [Night], so Anderson's Special Summon couldn't increase resistance here. It was already dead when he revealed his last hidden card, [Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring], and was buried several chains later.

"Activate the Perpetual Spell, [Nightmare's Pain]." Li Guanqi slapped down a card and then pointed forward.

"Fight!"

"【Hubel Elf】, attack 【Cyber ​​World Advent】!"

The [Hubel Elf] did not charge like a traditional monster.

It simply floated forward slowly, its translucent body flickering in and out of the digital light and shadow, its heterochromatic pupils, one blue and one orange, locked firmly on the [Electronic World Arriver].

It opens its arms as if welcoming a long-lost lover, or as if inviting the other to a ball of death.

That was not an attack.

It's bewitching.

The Electronic World Arriver's eyes lit up. Despite possessing all resistance, its core program experienced a slight disruption. It couldn't understand the logic of the being before it, but an instinctive impulse compelled it to eliminate this anomaly.

"Is this love?" Anderson murmured softly.

A beam of electronic judgment shot out from the palm of the [Electronic Advent], precisely engulfing the [Ubel Elf].

Despite the counterattack of six thousand attacks, the [Yubel Elf] showed no fear on its face.

Li Guanqi calmly stated, "With the [Nightmare of Pain] present, any battle damage inflicted on you by your 'Hubel' monster will be taken by your opponent."

Countless thorns sprang from the ground, enveloping the [Hubel Elf] and absorbing the beam energy of the [Electronic World Advent]'s beam.

Anderson realized something, his malfunctioning brain successfully rebooted, and looking at the restless Nightmare Thorns, he seriously took a half step back.

Immediately afterwards, all the nightmare thorns, saturated with energy, came back to life.

"Snapped!"

The first thorn whip tore through the air with a sharp whistling sound, lashing hard at Anderson's data body.

He let out a muffled cry, his body suddenly arched, and the blue data stream flowing across his body instantly became disordered, exploding into a series of glaring red error codes.

"Pah! Pah! Pah!"

Before he could react, hundreds and thousands of thorny whips came one after another, turning into a dense, impenetrable black shadow of whips that engulfed him from all directions.

The powerful spirituality brings more than just physical pain.

There are also data-level crashes and the gradual breakage of logical links, which are the mournful cries of the core program under the impact of overload.

Error! Unresolved damage type detected!

[Logic core overload! System integrity decreased... 72%... 55%...]

【warn!warn! 】

Above the digital battlefield, the numbers representing Anderson's fundamental score were fluctuating wildly.

8000→6531→4890→3112……

Ultimately, it all came down to a cold, hard number.

Anderson's base score: 2000
The whipping stopped, and the thorns retreated underground.

Anderson's figure reappeared, his body, composed of data, was indistinct in light and shadow, and the edges had begun to show pixelation and disintegration.

He stood there blankly, his electronic eyes losing their confidence and composure, replaced only by confusion and bewilderment.

Is this what love is?

Li Guanqi looked at him without any change in expression. He simply raised his hand, put his index and middle fingers together, and gently drew downwards.

"Goodbye."

He calmly issued the instructions.

"【Hubel】, attack 【Cyber ​​World Advent】!"

On the field, [Hubert], who possessed both a devilish figure and a woman's silhouette, slowly floated forward.

Unlike the [Hubel Elf], it did not spread its arms, but simply hovered quietly in mid-air, gazing at the [Electronic World Arriver] with its cold, lifeless heterochromatic eyes.

There was no seduction, no enticement.

There was only one kind of invitation, a pure invitation to mutual destruction.

The [Electronic World Arrival] remained silent, while the red light representing the core program flashed intensely once more.

Its root command is to protect.

The existing logic is about fighting, which prompts it to slowly raise its hand and gather the beam of light.

But now, every time it fights, it hurts its master.

To protect is to destroy.

This is a paradox it cannot comprehend, a dead end that could completely shut down any electronic life form.

"Do not……"

Upon witnessing this scene, the severely injured Anderson's data stream completely froze.

“Stop…” Anderson’s voice was dry and trembling, with a hint of pleading.

However, the order had already been issued.

The destructive beam shot out with a deafening roar!

Just as the beam was about to hit [Hubel], the Nightmare Thorns from the ground burst forth again, blocking the beam and absorbing all its energy.

Anderson's electronic eye has completely lost its luster.

[The Arrival of the Electronic World]...

What... exactly did you protect?

The next second, the thorns that had absorbed the destructive energy became thicker and darker, and their surfaces even burned with black flames composed of resentment and pain.

They transformed into an even more terrifying torrent of energy, sweeping across the entire battlefield and bearing the weight of judgment as they slammed into Anderson's already crumbling body!
"boom--!"

This time, it was no longer the crisp sound of whipping.

Instead, it was a dull, violent, and devastating impact!

"like……"

In the final moments before being swallowed by the garbled text, only this one incomprehensible word remained in Anderson's mind.

"...is suffering."

Anderson's baseline score: 2000 → 0
A piercing sound rang out, and the Kaling projections dissipated one by one. Anderson lost consciousness, his legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground.

【The winner is】

【Red Square】

【Duel ends】

Beck, watching from the side, was sweating profusely, thankful that he hadn't been Li Guanqi's opponent.

Li Guanqi, panting, slowly raised his right hand to signal to his teammates outside the arena.

"We won!!!" Tang Xin jumped up, excitedly grabbing Izanagi's hand. "Myna won! So amazing!"

Iizuna breathed a sigh of relief, smiled, and nodded gently: "Mm."

Ella's expression softened slightly, but she remained tense: "The other side doesn't look too good."

In the digital arena, Li Guanqi caught his breath and looked at his nameless teammate.

Both are fast-paced games without any pitfalls, but [Yubel] has an advantage against all-resistance opponents, and his cards are also good, so he uses them all.

K-water might be difficult to obtain.
"Remove one Xyz Material to activate the effect of [K9-17 "The Ripper"]," the nameless passerby said, raising his hand. "Add 1 'K 9' card from your Deck to your hand. If your opponent has activated a monster's effect this turn, you can Set 1 'K 9' Quick-Play Spell Card from your Deck or Graveyard to your field."

"There's a chance!" Iizuna raised an eyebrow excitedly. "Transforming into a [Werewolf] and combining it with [Case] ​​gives us 4200 attack power, allowing us to unleash a double attack and defeat [Cooperation Code Speaker] and [Fireproof Dragon - Singularity]!"

"Don't even think about it!" Baker slammed his hand down. "Release [Code Translator], activate the effect of [Cooperative Code Translator]!"

"Invalid and excluded [K9-17 'Ripper']!"

[The Heart-Splitter Code Speaker] sacrificed his partner, drawing a lightsaber and slicing through [K9-17 "The Ripper"] with a single blow.

"Damn it!" Izuna was so excited he wanted to jump into the screen and punch someone.

Beck smiled with satisfaction and pointed to the side: "Activate the effect of [Fireproof Dragon - Singularity], target [Fireproof Dragon] in the Graveyard, and Special Summon that monster."

The figure of the fire dragon slowly rose from the ground.

"Quick-Play Spell." The nameless passerby played his last card, "[Called by the Grave]".

"Excludes and invalidates [Fireproof Dragon]!"

A green arm forcefully suppressed the flames that had just risen from the [Fireproof Dragon].

Baker didn't take it seriously; exchanging the opponent's last trump card wasn't a loss.

"Only two five-star monsters left." He pointed to the nameless battlefield and sneered, "You've already used up the [Ripper] effect, how do you expect to fight me now?"

Li Guanqi frowned and opened their battle report.

I was shocked to discover that the [Save the Dragon] effect failed, and the [Frost Fairy] effect had also been triggered.

Although the impedance on the other side has been fully applied, it can only be stacked as one R5, so it can't do much.

Fortunately
He carefully examined the battle report and discovered that the nameless passerby had not yet used the summons.

In that case, you can also turn it into a water purifier.

For the average person, a water purifier is unlikely to be very effective, but what about a 60-calorie one? Could that be a pleasant surprise?

after all
"The world of duels is vast."

The nameless passerby smiled slightly and pointed to the two monsters on his field.
