Yu-Gi-Oh!: This isn't a duel!

He turned around, looking directly into Tiandao Lian's eyes, his tone serious and solemn:

“Heavenly Lotus, I can vouch for the reputation of ‘Horizon’, we definitely did not take the person away.”

"Although Garru is reckless, he disdains doing such underhanded things."

Roland paused, his gaze sweeping over the crowd before settling on the eerie black mist that still lingered in the center of the arena, its expression becoming exceptionally profound.

"The problem... must lie in this black mist."

Roland was naturally very interested in the name Youyang.

After all, the person who can wield that card is definitely not an ordinary person.

But right now, whatever ideas we have, we must first solve this thorny problem.

Roland walked steadily to the spot where Youyang had disappeared.

He stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze intensely scrutinizing the churning, seemingly alive black mist.

"This aura... is very similar to that of the Elf Realm."

"but……"

A hint of doubt flashed in Roland's eyes.

"The difference is that this cloud of black mist is unusually stable, showing no signs of expansion whatsoever."

Logically, if wild spirits were to descend from the realm, they should be in a state of rapid expansion, devouring the surrounding space.

Once the area has expanded to a sufficiently large extent, it will be time for those ferocious monsters to surge out like a tidal wave.

"But this thing is different."

To uncover the truth, Roland no longer hesitated.

He took a deep breath, and a surge of powerful elven energy instantly welled up within him, enveloping his entire right arm and forming a pale green energy shield.

Then, he carefully reached out and slowly stroked the unknown black mist.

The moment his fingertips touched the black mist, a sudden change occurred!

Chapter 205 Quick-Play Spell Card - [Super Polymerization]!

The expected physical pain did not occur.

Instead, a torrent of negative emotions, as powerful as a tsunami, surged into his mind, directly hitting his soul, flowing from his fingertips!

It was a battlefield of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

It is an extreme expression of anger at the nation's top leadership for choosing to stand idly by and remain indifferent during a crisis...

It is the heart-wrenching sorrow of watching helplessly as comrades fall one by one beside you, their blood staining the earth red, while you are powerless to do anything about it...

It is the inhuman suffering endured by the body and mind during countless struggles on the brink of life and death...

It's a deep self-doubt about whether the path I'm currently adhering to and everything I'm doing is truly the right one...

And the deep-seated powerlessness and anger of knowing one is fully aware of all the darkness, yet being unable to change the situation and forced to drift along with the tide...

"drink--!!"

Roland let out a low growl and abruptly withdrew his hand as if he had been electrocuted.

He staggered back two steps, his face, weathered by time and unfazed even by the collapse of Mount Tai, was now covered in large beads of cold sweat, and his complexion was as pale as paper.

What on earth is this weird thing?!

Just a brief moment of contact, and all the dark sides of his heart that he had forcibly buried deep in his heart with his iron will, those scars that he himself dared not touch, were all continuously detonated.

As a veteran who crawled out of piles of corpses and witnessed too many separations and deaths, his willpower was already as firm as a rock.

But in that instant, under the impact of that extreme despair, a terrifying thought uncontrollably arose in Roland's mind: to draw his gun and commit suicide, to find complete release...

"This thing... is actually from the Elf Realm?"

Seeing this, Lilith calmed down a little.

She withdrew the violent plant power from her body, and curiously reached out her small hand, intending to touch the black mist that even Roland feared.

"Don't touch this thing!!!"

A loud shout suddenly rang out.

Roland rushed over almost reflexively and slapped Lilith's hand, which was about to touch the black mist, away.

"This damned thing... will awaken the deepest fears and despair within you!"

Lilith's hand stung from the slap, and she was about to get angry.

But when she looked up and saw Roland's face, which was covered in cold sweat and still held a trace of fear in his eyes, she was stunned.

Roland is the leader of "Horizon," a recognized tough guy in the entire city of Raleigh, whose face is usually expressionless. How could he be so out of control now?!

Tendou Ren pushed up his glasses, and a cold light reflected off the lenses.

Seeing Roland's reaction, the intelligent man immediately understood the seriousness of the situation.

This black mist is definitely not benevolent.

But... Youyang is far too important to them.

That is the future hope of the "arbitrator," the one who may awaken the gods.

If anything happens to anyone, You Yang absolutely cannot be harmed!

"Since this is a special realm of spirits..."

Tian Daolian took a deep breath, her eyes becoming incredibly resolute.

"Then let's go in, break it down from the inside, and bring You Yang out!"

Without any hesitation, Tian Daolian strode forward and stood in front of the black mist.

Without taking any precautions, he reached his hand directly into the churning darkness.

The moment Tiandao Lian's fingers touched the black mist, countless negative emotions surged like a flood, instantly engulfing his consciousness.

It was a doubt about family destiny, anger at one's own powerlessness, hatred of being used as a tool, pain of losing freedom, and a deep sorrow hidden in the heart...

Those fragments of memories that he had deliberately forgotten and embellished flashed through his mind like sharp knives.

Two lines of clear tears uncontrollably slid down the corners of Tiandao Lian's eyes without him noticing.

"return!"

Seeing that the Heavenly Lotus was about to be completely swallowed by that indescribable fear, Lilith reacted quickly, suddenly reaching out her small hand, still wrapped with some thorns, and grabbing his collar tightly, using all her strength to pull him back from the edge of that black mist.

"Huh...huh...huh..."

Tendou Ren collapsed to the ground in a disheveled state, his chest heaving violently as if he had just been rescued from drowning in the deep sea, greedily inhaling the fresh air.

That face, which was usually well-maintained, was now deathly pale and filled with lingering terror.

Sweat mixed with the tears that had just flowed uncontrollably, completely soaking his temples.

He raised his hand tremblingly, hastily wiping away the tears on his face. His Adam's apple bobbed laboriously as he swallowed, before he spoke in a dry, hoarse voice:

"This thing...is really...very strange..."

The impact of negative emotions that strike directly at the soul is a thousand times more terrifying than any physical attack.

At this moment, Chen Yuan and Chen Yuexi also arrived. Seeing that Roland and Tiandao Lian were both in such a state of disarray, their expressions became extremely solemn.

"So... are we just supposed to wait like this?"

Chen Yuexi looked at the black mist that was slowly wriggling in the air as if it were breathing, and asked with concern.

Faced with Chen Yuexi's question, Roland took a deep breath, regained his composure as the leader of the organization, and nodded solemnly.

"Right now... there's no other way."

He glanced at the communicator on his wrist and said in a deep voice:

“I have already notified Victor and asked him to come over immediately.”

"He is our chief expert at 'Horizon' who specializes in studying phenomena in the Elf world. The safest approach is to have him take a look at what's going on."

Chen Yuexi nodded silently.

The siblings didn't really understand the supernatural and mysterious realm of the elves, and acting rashly would only cause more trouble.

Moreover… she turned to look at the black mist, a resolute glint in her eyes.

She genuinely believed in You Yang's abilities.

That man was someone who could defeat even the gods who stood at the pinnacle.

Even if this unknown elven realm is dangerous, with his abilities, there shouldn't be any major problems in the short term.

After recovering, Tiandao Lian nodded slightly in agreement.

Although he was indeed very worried about You Yang's safety, the strangeness of this elven realm far exceeded his expectations.

Moreover, he had heard of Victor of "Horizon" in the circle; he was a genius who was obsessed with the study of the elven world.

It's best to leave professional matters to professionals.

“You Yang is a ‘favored one of the gods’,”

Tiandao Lian comforted herself in her heart.

"The god who controls the power of harmony will surely protect him. Even if he is stuck in the mud, he will definitely be able to hold on."

However, as she listened to the discussion, Lilith grew increasingly agitated.

Her beautiful eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and her little leather shoes stomped impatiently on the ground.

How can we just wait like this?

You both clearly said that this elven realm is dangerous. Just now, you two grown men were so scared by a mere touch of your fingers.

You Yang was completely sucked in!

You say you believe me, but how can this passive waiting attitude put people at ease?

How can you not worry at all about what he's going through inside?
