Chapter 74 The Darkness Hidden Within the Darkness, Orichalcos (Please Subscribe)

Following [Legendary City Atlantis], there were various sea dragon monsters and the rare third-to-last magic and trap card, where Hyoga saw [Sea Dragon Daedalus].

Its effect is to use one face-up "Sea" card on the field as cost to destroy all other cards on the field.

In the second-to-last image, Hyoga saw [Neodaero, the Sea Dragon God].

It also uses one face-up "Sea" card on the field as its cost, but the effect sends all cards in both duelists' hands and on the field to the graveyard.

Sending you directly to the grave without destruction — are you also the Sky Thunder?

In the last card, Hyoga saw [Leviathan]. However, unlike the normal monsters Hyoga vaguely remembered, this one was an effect monster.

[Leviathan, 5 stars, Water]

[Sea Dragon Clan/Effect, 1800/1500]

[Effect: You can activate this effect during your Main Phase, placing one "Sea" card from your Deck directly onto the field. This effect can only be used once per Duel.] (Video Game Special Effect)

Glacier looked at it and saw that it could manipulate the [Sea] effect, so naturally it could also manipulate [Legendary City - Atlantis].

It would be great if the second head of the new Sea Dragon God could retain the abilities of the old Sea Dragon God.

So first, place a [Sea] card, then use Daedalus's head to activate the field's graveyard-sending power, then use Leviathan's head to place another [Sea] card, and finally activate the field's graveyard-sending power again—who can stop this except for a few that are unaffected by the effect?

After putting away the entire deck, Hyoga once again expressed his gratitude to the dimensional consciousness.

"This is our gift of gratitude, a symbol of our friendship with Lord Hyoga, and there's no need for further thanks. However—" The dimensional consciousness looked at the three spirits still lingering beside Hyoga, "What should we do with them?"

Glacier looked over and saw that it was the three Ocean Warriors.

They thought they were no longer the warriors of Atlantis, but merely followers of the glacier.

But when Ice River released the warriors of Atlantis, he also released the three of them.

Their special abilities also work in Atlantis, and Ice River wanted to see if they would regret their decision.

Compared to the Ocean Warriors who remained in the Ocean Dimension, the three of them now indeed have an additional opportunity.

And the three Ocean Warriors were indeed shaken by the grandeur of Atlantis.

But when Hyoga looked over and asked for their thoughts, all three shook their heads.

"We've already decided to follow Lord Hyoga, how could we possibly go back on our word?"

Although they are not heroes yet, they already have the reputation of heroes.

Hyoga felt great; with this mindset, he was closer to becoming a hero.

The dimensional consciousness was quite tempted by the abilities of these three new marine warriors, but since they were unwilling to stay, the dimensional consciousness did not want to create conflict with Lord Hyoga for their sake.

Everything is for the purpose of reconnecting with the material dimension.

The legendary city is far too weak now.

On a submarine mountain peak northwest of Atlantis, Glacier decided to build the dimensional gate there.

Moreover, it is a permanent type, which can directly connect with the material dimension.

This will not only allow Hyoga to frequently visit the Water Demon and Baton, who has decided to stay here temporarily, but also, through this connection, bring the entire Legendary City dimension back to a place closer to the material dimension.

The dimensional consciousness certainly agrees with this, as it has always longed for it.

They even considered summoning the Sea Dragon God to protect this place after the dimensional gate was built.

Moreover, such conditions actually imply a certainty that the legendary city will win this internal dimensional war.

However, Hyoga didn't say it outright—although the meaning was clear, if they really lost in a humiliating way, Hyoga could still save face.

Without any interference, the dimensional gate was established very quickly.

After inserting the copy of the Titan Warrior into the card slot, the Dimensional Vortex quickly took shape.

With the combined support of the two colossal forces, the dimensional vortex gradually became clearer.

This indicates that the vast distance between the material dimension and the legendary city was directly bridged by the power of the Colossus, and the boundary between them was truly reduced to a thin membrane compressed to the extreme.

Now, if the glacier can cross over, it can return directly to the material dimension.

One can only say that he truly deserves to be called a god.

The abilities displayed during the duel were completely insufficient to demonstrate the true power of the Colossus.

Only those who can perform actions that transcend common sense are gods.

Through the dimensional gate, Hyoga saw Pegasus rushing into the research lab after receiving the news.

It seems he did not return to his island.

But Hyoga was taken aback by what Pegasus said next.

"Lord Hyoga, we finally have news from you! Today is the day of the Japan National Tournament Finals, and I was just about to postpone the tournament until you returned!"

"Today? Isn't there still two days left?" Hyoga himself was also calculating the time.

Pegasus had no way of knowing, but the world he was in was definitely not fake.

After thinking for a moment, Hyoga explained, "That can only be because my perception of time was inaccurate during the multiple times I traveled through the dimensional gates."

When teleporting through a one-way dimensional portal, the arrival is not instantaneous; Hyoga will remain in the dimensional passage for a period of time.

Moreover, the dimension that the glacier has arrived in this time is many times farther away from the material dimension than the farthest one before, the [ocean], which will cause a greater error in the perception of time.

However, Hyoga was glad that he had been keeping to himself and had not only successfully rescued Bedouin, but also had not delayed the matter of the Material Dimension.

That's great!

The only pity is that Beidou won't be going back with him immediately this time.

But the safety of the water demon is more important.

Moreover, with the two-way dimensional gate already established, can't Hyoga just come and go as he pleases?

Anyway, the cost will be covered by the Giant God Soldier.

However, just as Hyoga was about to enter the portal, thinking about the connection between the Titans and the legendary city, his expression suddenly changed drastically, and he stopped in his tracks.

Hyoga immediately dispersed all the surrounding Pokémon, even sending Dott back to the iceberg. He even took out a contract to prevent the dimensional consciousness from eavesdropping on their next words before taking out the original card of the Titan.

"Lord Colossus, do you still remember Orichalcos?"

Upon hearing the name, the phantom of the Giant Warrior suddenly emerged from the card with a massive head.

Its head alone is much larger than a dimensional gate.

"Hyoga, why did you suddenly bring up this name? Is it because the power of Orichalcos remains within Atlantis?"

Hyoga shook his head. "No. It has nothing to do with this place."

Hyoga explained carefully, "Last time in the ocean dimension, when I heard the ocean dimension consciousness mention Atlantis, I remembered the knowledge the Millennium Key gave me, which included the relationship between Orichalcos and Atlantis —"

(Millennium Key: I didn't! I didn't say that!)

Hyoga pressed down on the Millennium Key that was protruding from his chest and continued, "So at the time, I thought that after returning to the material dimension, I would go and check on the seal of that evil god, and reinforce it if necessary, so that they could not escape again."

"But once I returned to the material dimension, I completely forgot about it!"

Hyoga pointed to his head. "With my current intelligence, this kind of thing is impossible."

"Just now, when I suddenly recalled Orichalcos, an idea popped into my head. Could it be that when I returned to the material plane, I was influenced by some force and forgot about it?"

"Although it's just speculation, Your Excellency Colossus, once I return to the material dimension, you can ask me about it and see if I've truly forgotten about it."

If it's true—that means there's a high chance that the power of Orichalcos has already been unleashed!

Although it is still in a dormant phase, as long as there are no restrictions, the power of Orichalcos will rapidly recover and even become stronger as the accumulated energy increases.

The giant warrior's already serious expression became even more serious after hearing Hyoga's words.

Orichalcos, what a name I really don't want to mention!

But if they have indeed broken free, then we should prepare a response in advance!

"It's finally back!"

When Hyoga returned to the material dimension through the dimensional gate, he immediately felt a sense of relief.

Of course, this was mainly because the surrounding matter had changed from seawater to air, but the successful completion of this trip also made Hyoga feel relaxed.

But just as Pegasus approached and was about to speak, the original card of the Titan suddenly flew out, and its giant head popped out.

Pegasus immediately stepped back.

Hyoga tilted his head, looking at the Colossus. "Colossus, what's wrong?"

Okay! This time, we don't need to ask; we already have the answer.

For once, the giant warrior saw a look of confusion in the glacier's eyes.

This kind of clear-eyed foolishness is really not a good match for a glacier!

The next instant, the giant's arm appeared and grabbed Hyoga, who was not resisting.

Hyoga had great faith that the Giant Warrior would not do anything to harm him.

But the next second, Hyoga's expression turned very ugly.

Under the power of the Titans, Hyoga recalled the events surrounding Orichalcos and his plans with the Titans in Atlantis.

Sure enough, it really did have an impact.

Everything about Orichalcos is now "shielded" by some force in the material dimension, and even those who know about it cannot recall it.

Only by using a power stronger than theirs can they be temporarily recalled.

That's a terrifying power!

It has to be said, he truly lives up to his reputation as an Orichalcosmo.

"It seems that the recent reports of people suddenly fainting and falling into a coma after playing cards are likely due to their souls being absorbed by the power of Orichalcos! They are hiding beneath the original dark forces of this world, using darkness to conceal their own darkness."

"Malik, that six-year-old kid, is still gloating over using me to increase his men. He probably doesn't know that he's also taking the blame for Orichalco."
