Yu-Gi-Oh!: This card wants to go to you.

She didn't quite understand this mechanical board, but judging from its structure and grid, it should be the same ritual as the endgame puzzle, only the medium was different. The enemy this new medium faced was probably the sleeping snake woman.

"This thing is called a Duel Disk..."

[Bai] trembled slightly, weakly lying on the table panting, her forehead covered in cold sweat, and purplish-black blood slowly flowing from the wound on her back, dripping down the hem of her clothes and mixing with the remaining toxins on the ground.

The gas mask was put back on Filina, and due to excessive blood loss, her consciousness gradually became blurred.

He tried to stand up, but his legs trembled uncontrollably, as if a gust of wind could blow him over.

"You really recognize this?" Immy's expression became even more surprised. She shifted her gaze and asked, "What does that deck mean?"

[Bai] swallowed hard and said, "A deck consists of forty to sixty cards."

"It's impossible for an ordinary person to carry so many magic cards with them."

He was so tired he couldn't lift his head, and his voice became increasingly hoarse.

"We...we need...to pool everyone's strength."

Magic cards are what every magic card master relies on most, and they are generally not lent out to anyone other than their closest relatives.

"I'll take care of this."

Imi said slowly, taking the Duel Disk and walking to the outside of the snake cave, where dozens of people were recuperating from their injuries.

Hey everyone!

The crisp shouts echoed through the spacious main cave, attracting the attention and alert of dozens of people.

"I need the magic cards you possess."

"Did you hand it in yourselves..." She looked around, her voice icy, "or should I take it myself?"

The harsh words fell, and the corpses scattered all over the ground began to stir. The next second, the poisonous zombie slowly stood up, like a puppet, with a thin purple shadow hanging above its head.

Hundreds of shadow lines from the entire cave converged in Immy's palm.

"Witch!" A woman in white drew her sword and said in a deep voice.

"How could I, a disciple of Xiangjian, collude with you in such a wicked way!"

Another naked man chimed in, "I, Tianwei Fist, would also like to experience your skills."

In an instant, the air became tense and fraught with tension.

At the very moment the conflict broke out.

"stop!"

With a cold shout, [Bai] arrived at the scene.

"I have solved the puzzle."

"I'm borrowing your cards to fight the Ruins Guardians, not to steal your things!"

The crowd was taken aback by his shout and said, "Why...why should we believe you...what if you're in cahoots with this witch..."

"Wow—"

[Bai] With a flick of his wrist, he scattered the five magic cards on his body into an open space, looked around at everyone, and spoke with a firm voice.

"I will explain the rules of the duel to you."

"Who has confidence?"

"Here's the card...you go!"

Seeing this, Imi threw the duel disk in his hand onto the open ground and waved his hand, saying, "This is a device for dueling with the guards. If you dare, put it on. Please."

"But..." The crowd still seemed somewhat suspicious.

Upon seeing this, Bai roared, "In another half hour, we'll all be dead!"

The entire cave fell into a deathly silence as dozens of hardened warriors, who had been risking their lives for their lives, were stunned by the roar of a sixteen-year-old boy.

A man in military uniform slowly approached, carrying his unconscious comrade on his back. He handed over three magic cards, his voice trembling slightly: "Can you really... get us out of here? My comrade needs treatment..."

【Nuclear Guardian】, 【Nuclear Sandman】, 【Nuclear Wallman】.

【Nuclear Formation】 is a series of magic cards commonly used by soldiers of the 【Frontline Army】 to resist the invasion of wild beasts.

"I can only say there's hope..." [Bai] gasped weakly.

The man in military uniform placed the card in his hand, smiled with relief, and said, "It's good that there's hope. I'm counting on you."

One person took the lead, and the "wait-and-see" group followed suit.

"I've consulted the oracle; today isn't my death anniversary!" The fortune teller girl gritted her teeth and handed over the cards: [Saintly Diviner Princess. Tarot Light Witch], [Netherworld Diviner Princess. Tarot Ghost Witch], [Netherworld Divination Ritual], [Saintly Divination Ritual].

A girl dressed in a [water-themed] outfit approached, wearing a veil. She handed over eight [Ice Water] cards, nodded, and said in a clear, playful voice, "They're yours~"

It's up to you now~

...

"It's up to you now."

...

"It's up to you now."

...

[White] is holding more and more magic cards.

The woman in white, holding a sword, frowned, stepped forward, glanced at Yimi, then turned back and handed over eight [Sword Comparison] cards, saying coldly, "I don't trust her, but... I trust you."

I don't believe her, but... I believe you.

"Brother!" The naked boxer put his arm around [White]'s shoulder, his tone bold and generous.

"If you can really get me out of here, come to Tianwei Mountain, your senior brother will protect you, hahaha..."

[Bai] stared blankly at the more than three hundred magic cards in her hand, which were heavy and she hadn't recovered her senses for a while.

"Witch, where's your card?"

The white-clad swordsman's demanding question drew everyone's attention. His cold gaze exuded an astonishing aura of irreconcilable righteousness and evil.

"My card?" Immi was slightly taken aback.

"I don't use magic cards."

"Oh, but I 'found' a card that I really like."

She suddenly realized something and handed [Bai] an R card.

The absence of fields is often a trap.

The title is: [The Witch's Strike].

Chapter 118 The First Duel (Part 7)

"The witch's attack..." [Bai] examined the card, carefully reading its effect.

It's incredibly powerful; it can destroy all of your opponent's cards on the field and in their hand, a devastating blow.

It's about the activation conditions...

This effect can only be activated if the opponent negates the Summoning or Special Summoning of a monster, or if the opponent negates the activation of the effects of a Spell, Trap, or Monster.

It looks so complicated and difficult.

For those who are just starting out in dueling, it's a bit difficult to understand.

"Add him in first, let's discuss how to build the team." [Bai] said, taking the card.

He glanced at the more than three hundred magic cards. None of them were purple, black, white, or blue cards with arrows. The shopkeeper had told him that these were the rules for advancement, which were a bit complicated, so he didn't go into details.

The endgame didn't involve those cards, so he didn't ask any further questions.

There are approximately forty minutes left before the poison takes effect.

Dozens of people found a relatively clean spot and laid out more than three hundred magic cards on the ground. [Bai] took the cards and explained the basic rules to them.

"The game's rules are simple: find a way to reduce your opponent's base score..."

"The most direct method is to fight with monsters; duelists will have to take damage equal to the difference in attack power..."

Just as this was mentioned, the brilliant Tianwei Man quickly offered his opinion: "Then why not just use all high-attack monsters?"

"One punch, one kid!"

[White] shook his head and said, "To summon a five- or six-star monster, you need to sacrifice one monster. However, you can usually only summon once per turn. If you summon a small monster, you can't immediately use it as a tribute for a Tribute Summon."

"If it's a monster of level seven or higher, it requires two tributes, making it very difficult to summon. It's foreseeable that the opponent won't allow us to have two monsters on our field."

A look of worry immediately appeared on everyone's faces; the rules of the game were more complicated than they had imagined.

"But..." [White] raised her voice firmly again, "There is no limit to the number of Special Summonings!"

"We can use some [effects] to Special Summon as many monsters as possible, and then use them to summon powerful monsters, such as this [Demon Sanctuary] card."

He picked out a Normal Spellbook from his deck: "[Demon Sanctuary] can Special Summon a Token without using a Normal Summon attempt. We can immediately Tribute it for a Tribute Summon."

"I see!" Immi exclaimed in realization. "The purpose of magic cards is to help our side grow stronger, and trap cards, as the name suggests, are used to restrict the opponent from calling in reinforcements, right?"

"Isn't this just a group fight? I'm familiar with it."

"Back in the day, I could unleash a single [Shadowdow Fusion]..."

Watch out, I have a four-character fusion card.

[Bai] interrupted her boasting without turning her head: "That's roughly the idea. For example, this [Trap Hole] can destroy the monsters summoned by the opponent. Trap cards can also help with board presence. For example, [Call of the Dead] can pull one from the graveyard."

At this point in the explanation, Da Congming jumped in again and suggested, "Trap cards are so strong? Then add more of them!"

“But trap cards have a fatal weakness…” [White] sighed, his face darkening. “They need to be set face-down before they can be used on the next turn. If it drags on for a turn, they might be cleared by the opponent’s [Whirlwind].

"Oh--"

Everyone sighed in realization, a dark cloud forming on their foreheads, their IQs feeling a bit low.

"Also, Quick-Play Spells can be activated during the Battle Phase, such as this [Offering to the Dead]..." [White] explained, while excluding one or two-star Normal Monsters and some cards with unclear meanings.

Offerings to the dead
