My anime-style card deck is fine!

In other words, this monster is ineffective; in a sense, it's just a large blank slate.

but……

But it couldn't be more fitting here!

In the original work, [Death Swarm] is a monster that was attracted from underground due to the Hiroshima atomic bombing. Although the card effect does not mention it, Death Swarm is able to absorb the [radiation energy] in the surrounding air.

Although slow, the attack power of the Death Horde is indeed gradually increasing as it absorbs the radiation.

This is a land perfectly suited for his survival!

Occupying the advantage of terrain, and being an aggregated monster composed of countless parasitic life forms, the Death Horde is basically no match for any one-on-one, but when it comes to numbers...

The horde of death fears no one!

"Hiss—!!"

Eleven hordes of death rampaged through the army of heroes!

Completely without any resistance, like tiny bubbles being run over by a car—these little Karami, who were at most Bronze II and had an attack power of just over 1000, had no ability to stop them at all!

The moment the crushed hero was about to be killed, a new horde of the dead was born from his corpse!

Led by the initial five Death Horde that devoured Godzilla, and supplemented by the Silver Death Horde born from the bodies of six Silver Warriors...

The horde of death is slaughtering all the heroes on the field!

The slain heroes also transformed into a new horde of death, joining the massacre as well!

There was absolutely no resistance...

The violence of numbers appears so fragile and weak when faced with a greater number!

--Won.

Banxia looked at the battlefield that had been crushed by the horde of death single-handedly, but she was still uneasy: "Then, Amon, Wang Quan, Huang Jie, and Ruochu... now that we've won, what are we going to do next?"

"—Are you going back to China?"

Banxia looked at everyone and said calmly.

Chapter 291: The Golden Barrier!

Going back to China?

This is indeed a good choice. After all, they are just freshmen, their youth is not yet over. They should be enjoying their youth under the protection of adults, away from danger and disaster, and enjoying peace and happiness.

——This is how it should be.

But strangely enough, before Banxia asked that question, neither Amon, Wang Quan, Wang Ruochu, nor Huang Jie, nor even Banxia herself, had any intention of returning to China.

As for why...

"No," Wang Quan frowned and refused, "I have things I must do here!"

As a newly promoted Silver rank player, he has responsibilities and obligations he must bear. Although he is not explicitly required to do so, his upbringing certainly teaches him—

Even when beating a dog, you have to consider its owner!

If your dog is beaten and you don't stand up for it, your pet will turn into a wild wolf!

"I don't want to go back! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" Amon didn't think too much about it. His opinion was simple: "This is probably the only time we'll be able to openly beat up Sakura and America."

"Humph!"

Wang Ruochu remained silent; as long as the king was there, she was there too!

“I have no intention of going back either.” Huang Jie raised his hand with a smile on his face: “Amon-chan has just said what I was thinking—besides, I have a score to settle with those bastards.”

"If you have a grudge, you should take revenge yourself. In a few days, when the domestic army lands in Cherry Blossom, it will be too late for us to do anything."

Revenge should be sought as soon as possible!

"I'm sorry, Huang Jie." Wang Quan looked at Huang Jie, bowed slightly, and apologized, "I dragged you into this."

“No need, there’s no need for that.” Huang Jie stepped aside, his expression unchanged, only growing colder: “When someone wants to scheme against you, you absolutely cannot escape.”

"Because if you fail once, there will be a second, a third, a fourth time..."

“You just happened to be there that time of success, I don’t blame you.” Huang Jie spoke very seriously: “I don’t have the habit of taking my anger out on others, you don’t need to apologize to me, Wang Quan.”

"……I see."

Wang Quan nodded.

"So, everyone's thoughts are aligned now." Banxia nodded. "Since the suggestion to return to China has been rejected, what are everyone's ideas for the future?"

"I have a question."

Amon said, "Although we want revenge, the other side is quite powerful. Can we, a few Silver-level players, really do it? To be honest, I am quite confident in myself, but I am not confident that I can win if I really encounter a Gold-level card master."

"...You actually still have the idea of ​​winning?"

Huang Jie looked complicated, but still explained, "Don't worry, the Brave Team has at most one Gold Card Master, no more than that."

Before Amon could ask why, Wang Quan explained, "Sakura is a defeated nation. During World War II, it signed the Gold Treaty with the United States. The treaty had many clauses, but the core content was only one—"

"No more than three Gold Card Masters are allowed to exist in the Sakura Country."

"This agreement is written into the collective consciousness of the Sakura Kingdom. When the Sakura Kingdom has more than three Gold Card Masters, the collective consciousness will exclude all Gold Card Masters of the Sakura Kingdom."

"This means that those gold card masters will no longer be able to borrow the spiritual power of the collective consciousness."

"Do you know what this means?"

"That means they can't even open the dueling arena!" Amon understood, recalling that in the original world, Japan had also had its military power taken away, leaving only a meaningless Self-Defense Force.

It seems the world is pretty much the same.

"However, there are always ways to circumvent policies. In fact, the number of gold card masters in the Sakura Kingdom is quite large, but none of them are in Sakura's territory."

Wang Quan shook his head; politicians can always find loopholes in the clauses between the lines.

Especially when it involves the fate of a nation.

Although domestic gold card masters are not allowed in China, can't we just leave Sakura?

"Most of Sakura's Gold Card Masters are now concentrated in [Brazil] and [the United States], with a small number scattered around the world. They have bought a lot of land in Brazil because it is more free there. Now, there is only one Gold Card Master left in Sakura."

"And our Huaying University's president and two vice presidents have secured another gold spot through the strong contract between the suzerain state and the vassal state. Therefore, even if the Brave Team has gold-level card masters, there aren't many."

"If there were more than two Gold Card Masters, the three principals would definitely have noticed!"

"Therefore, the Brave Team will most likely—no, there will only be one!"

It is precisely this excellent political and geographical environment.

That's what makes cherry blossoms so special.

Without the burden of a walking bomb like the Gold Card Master, Sakura has grown rapidly in the short decades since the war, relying on its unique global sense of security, and has attracted much international attention.

"That's really good news." Amon was genuinely unaware of this kind of information.

"It's covered in high school courses."

Wang Ruochu abruptly spoke up, saying that although the teaching environment in this world was much more relaxed, it was still high school after all. As students' minds matured, they needed to gradually absorb more knowledge and content.

"Ok."

Amon spread his hands.

He skipped high school and went straight to university: "So, after talking so much, what are we going to do next?"

"...Things are developing too fast. Anyway, let's summarize the information first."

Huang Jie suggested: "We don't need to know trivial information like what happened, why this happened, or the purpose of the Brave Team's actions, but at the very least..."

"We need to know the location of the target [of our revenge]!"

Makes sense!

Huang Jie's suggestion was immediately approved.

However, although Huang Jie was able to use his connection with the cards to know the approximate direction and location when the Brave Team used [Echoes of History], but...

Tokyo is too big!

“Therefore, we need to find a practical way to track the enemy.” Amon’s first thought was Banxia’s [observation, listening, questioning, and palpation], but it was quickly rejected.

With too little information, she couldn't fully utilize her abilities.

“In that case, I have a suggestion.” Huang Jie raised his right hand and said, “If we can’t find it now, why not ask the magical [history]?”

“Go back to the school; [History] needs the school's card-making machine to be remade.”

"And who knows, they might also have the information we need over there."

……

Amon and others are not close to Huaying University.

It almost spans half of Tokyo.

Arriving was almost effortless, but leaving was often met with obstruction from other Silver Warriors who seemed to appear out of nowhere.

Fortunately, Amon and his companions were quite strong.

Although a considerable number of Silver Warriors emerged, they were all merely at the level of Delinquent Warriors and were easily defeated by Amon and his companions.

Along the way, Amon and his companions also encountered many card masters who were still resisting.

Those were card players who resisted their opponents' [Hiroshima] field cards through their own mental domain when the Ultra Wide Arena was in action, and these card players who could fight against them were naturally not ordinary.

These covered all over Tokyo, like festering sores spread across the giant's body.

Because the hosts of major duel arenas are usually high-level card players of the Silver rank, they have a very deep connection with the collective consciousness, so this so-called [fucosy] is almost ingrained in their bones!

The heroes' goal is to completely remove all these [fumes]!

Although most ordinary citizens have now been completely transformed into heroes, there are still many more bronze card masters and even silver card masters who are still resisting!
