Chapter 75, Page 074: [The Forging of a Territory] (Please Subscribe)

But now that they know Orichalcos has escaped, how do they find him?

Glacier really couldn't find a solution.

In the anime, Orichalcos only launched a surprise attack after gaining the power to suppress three God Cards at the same time. Both the International Illusion Company and the Kaiba Corporation were quickly overwhelmed.

That's incredibly cunning.

If it weren't for the sudden return of the three legendary dragons, the main characters would have been captured by the Three Musketeers of Dorma long ago.

In fact, the Pharaoh lost his first defeat here.

If Little Biao hadn't volunteered to be captured by the [Orichalcos Barrier] in his place, the Pharaoh would have had no chance to turn the tide.

Huh? [Orichalcos Barrier]?

Thinking of this most famous Field Spell Card, Hyoga suddenly came up with a way to counter Orichalcos and his subordinate Doma organization.

Because of the powerful effect of [Orichalcos Barrier] and its necessity for capturing duelists' souls, many duelists in the Doma Organization build their tactics around this Field Spell Card.

After all, [Orichalcos Barrier] has the effect of not being affected by other cards leaving the field after it is activated, which makes it safe to use.

However, since the effects of the three legendary dragons can counter it, other methods are certainly entirely possible!

There is absolutely no card in this world that cannot be controlled.

As Hyoga pondered, a plan gradually took shape in his mind.

If that's the case, then we need to start preparing even earlier.

The best time is now!

"Pegasus, you go to Japan first. I'll teleport you there after you arrive, following the mark on your body." Hyoga glanced at the time. "Now I need to create a special card. Don't let anyone disturb me!"

Upon receiving the order, Bekas immediately indicated that he understood.

Even if he didn't say it, this research lab is not accessible to just anyone.

After Pegasus left, Glacier closed the research lab and sat alone on the ground.

The image of the Millennium Key being passed to him and the Millennium Artifact being created gradually resurfaced in his mind.

It was a land forging that sacrificed a village.

Regardless of whether the villagers in that village were originally thieves or not, the magical ritual required for this land-forging was extremely grand and massive, and even for those priests, the price they had to pay to complete it was enormous.

But for this reason, this process of transforming the land into a single entity has very significant lessons to be learned.

Using external forces, they burned the entire "kingdom" to the ground!

Its power is best represented by the fire of the end of the world!

[Demis, the King of the End] flew out. Although Demis's consciousness had been destroyed by the Titans, his power still exists in this card.

But then he will transform the ravaged land back into his kingdom.

【Luin, the Goddess of Ruin】also flew out.

Her flames of destruction, while destructive, also possess the power to regenerate the world.

Two flames, one blue and one red, spun around and converged in Hyoga's hand, reflecting two colors onto his face.

It was incredibly powerful—but Hyoga still felt it wasn't enough.

The power of these two 8-star monsters is still insufficient.

Blue and red together, but it feels like it's missing a bit of yellow.

Oh, right!

"Lord Eczodia, could you lend me some power?"

Hyoga pulled out [Sealed Exodia] from his deck, slapped it onto the Duel Disk to project a giant head, and then smiled as he spoke to him.

Although Eczodia cannot speak, he was attached to this card and could actually hear Hyoga's words.

Eczodia glanced at the Titan that looked much like him, then gave Hyoga a look of disgust.

When things get tough, it's Ecuzodia; when things are fine, it's the Titans, right?

Who cares about you!

Consciousness immediately detached, and Ecuzodia remained motionless.

But at that moment, another card appeared in front of Hyoga.

【Guardian Deity Ekuzodo】, an Earth-attribute monster previously used by Shadi.

Eczodia's 8-star vest is not only yellow in color, but also of the earth element. Its power is perfectly suited to bear the flames of the end and the flames of destruction, without the fear of imbalance.

So, didn't Ecuzodia still lend him the power?

Hyoga accepted the [Guardian Deity - Ekuzodo] with a grin. Immediately, a stream of power was drawn from his body and formed a protective stone slab in front of Hyoga.

It's perfect for carving!

It worked!

As Hyoga looked at the densely packed land-forging magic circle constructed with red and blue lines on the guardian stone slab, he was somewhat impressed with himself for actually completing it.

Although it used up quite a few stone slabs, success is all that matters!

The next step is the most crucial one.

This stone slab, which can be thrown out and transformed into a magic circle for creating a real land, can be made into a card.

This was also the first time that Hyoga had used this method to make cards.

If successful, it will be Glacier's first truly original card.

Although the effect was directly copied from other cards by Hyoga, it is still very memorable.

To prevent failure, Glacier also took out the Millennium Key to ensure everything went perfectly.

The result went smoothly; a green Normal Spell Card appeared in Hyoga's hand.

Katu, that's the stone slab from before!

[Land Transformation] (Normal Magic)

[Effect: Add 1 Field Spell Card from your Deck to your hand.]

In terms of effect, it's a direct parody of his "Planet Transformation" card, which allows you to draw a Field Spell Card directly from your deck.

That is indeed the case normally.

However, this card also has a hidden effect that is not written on the card face.

Yes, it's a classic! Although it's not written, this card has that effect.

That means that if you obtain a Field Spell Card through [Territory Alchemy], it will definitely activate successfully!

No matter what Field Spell Cards were originally on the field, they would all be overwritten by him.

At first glance, this seems completely meaningless, because the expert rules state that only one Field Spell Card can be activated on the field at a time, and a later activation will directly overwrite the previously activated Field Spell Card.

Just like how the glacier used the sea to push away the Demon Palace, the lair of demons.

But what if it's an Orichalcos barrier that stubbornly refuses to go down?

Then the land-transforming magic circle sealed in this card will teach the other party how to follow the rules!

Since the other party insists on shamelessly breaking the rules, why should we insist on being trapped within the rules?

If the enemy is cunning, then we should be even more cunning!

Hyoga thought to himself, "From now on, let's replace [Planet Transformation] with [Territory Creation]!"

This card with hidden power should be circulated throughout the world as much as possible, so that if Orichalcos really does suddenly appear in the future, it won't be so unexpected anymore.

And if they want to immediately make this card famous—

That'll depend on the Duel Kingdom Tournament!
