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

"boom!"

The crystal card suddenly shattered in mid-air, and a mechanical dragon several meters long ran out of the summoning circle. The mechanical dragon roared and summoned a three-meter-tall mechanical giant wolf from the void.

"grass!"

Luo Bai's pupils dilated rapidly as he dodged the mechanical beast's pounce.

"This thing looks familiar..."

Chapter 3 Red-Eyes Black Dragon

Luo Bai brushed past the mechanical dragon.

A friendship so deep it's like risking your life.

He could see clearly that the summoned mechanical giant wolf and mechanical dragon were connected to Kevins in the sky by a blue shadow line. The shadow line could pass through the lampstand, which meant that the summoned monsters were likely not physically controlled.

Having a general idea in mind, Luo Bai reached out and touched the last pure yellow card.

No card image.

There was only one passage of text whose meaning was unclear, but thankfully I could understand it.

Whether it was his imagination or not, he heard the sound of the cards and their breathing, and inexplicably began to read the words aloud...

boom!

A powerful storm erupted around Luo Bai, sending the mechanical dragon and the mechanical giant wolf flying dozens of meters away.

"By blood oath, by anger power."

"Descend!"

"It burst forth with endless flames and dark power."

"Destroy oppression, soar high, and reclaim freedom and light!"

Hear my call, spread your wings and soar to the heavens, shatter your bonds and shackles, unleash your fury, and destroy all evil...

"Descend!"

"A true red-eyed black dragon!"

Luo Bai's eyes hardened, and he shattered the card!

"Boom!"

An unparalleled aura erupted from the shattered crystal card.

The gust of wind instantly blew everything around them away.

A blue line shot out from Luo Bai's hand, like a thin needle for drawing blood, frantically sucking something from Luo Bai's body.

"Roar!"

A dragon's roar echoed through the air, its thunderous sound reverberating throughout the entire underground city.

The earth shook and mountains trembled, and all living beings trembled.

The black dragon spread its enormous wings.

Flames spew forth, merciless destruction.

[warning, warning]

Kevins' mechanical helmet beeped, and through the detection lens, a red halo could be seen flashing on the black dragon's body.

[Target - Red-Eyes Black Dragon - Epic]

Please evacuate.

Please evacuate.

Kevins stared in astonishment at the scene, momentarily stunned by the mechanical prompts.

"An epic monster..."

The nightmarish reality plunged him into fear.

Caught off guard, he was locked onto by the black dragon's fierce gaze.

The pride in my heart instantly turned to ashes.

Luo Bai's body also underwent a strange change. After some things in his body were drained, the blue shadow line started to draw out his flesh and blood, and his body began to shrink continuously.

"Only one chance to attack."

He gritted his teeth and shakily controlled the black dragon, observing the movement of the two mechanical behemoths, and finally found the intersection of the two beasts and one person.

"Go, [Black Flame Bullet]!"

The true red-eyed black dragon opened its massive jaws and roared.

Huge black flames erupted, and the inferno rapidly heated the entire basement. By the time Kevins realized the seriousness of the situation, it was already too late.

They once looked down on power and oppression, but they appeared humble before the Black Dragon, and could only await the judgment and trial of fate.

"Ugh!!!"

The two ancient mechanical monsters, along with Kevins, were instantly melted in the sea of ​​fire, and the screams of wild beasts filled the air.

"Now the mission should be completed, right?"

Luo Bai weakly withdrew his control over the black dragon. He had become skin and bones, and had used up all three cards given to him by the quest.

However, there is still no notification that the "Survive" task is complete.

"What exactly constitutes surviving...?"

Luo Bai dragged his weary body aimlessly through the sea of ​​fire. Strange, monstrous beasts, engulfed in flames, charged out, only to vanish into nothingness after a few steps.

The black flames do not harm the caster. Standing in the sea of ​​fire, one feels that no enemy can touch him, and an extremely strong sense of security envelops his entire body.

"This doesn't count as escaping danger...?"

Luo Bai murmured weakly.

Black flames spread everywhere, burning the iron furnace and causing continuous explosions. He walked barefoot on the scorching ground, his physical strength already at its limit.

"call..."

Luo Bai's breathing became increasingly rapid, and his consciousness became blurred, as if he were experiencing a final burst of energy before death. He seemed to be seeing hallucinations.

Otherwise, it would be hard to explain why it was snowing in the dungeon.

The snowflakes extinguished the black flames, covering the earth in white, and a chill ran through my feet.

Not far away.

A figure sat beneath the bare, withered tree. It was vaguely a woman with long silver hair, but he couldn't see clearly. Luo Bai couldn't keep his eyelids open any longer. A faint fragrance wafted over, and his mind went blank. He slowly collapsed.

"Blue-Eyes White Dragon?... "

Blue-Eyes White Dragon (True Love Perspective)

[Task complete, table installation in progress]

The voice indicating mission completion echoed in his mind, and Luo Bai's tense nerves relaxed, a wave of exhaustion washing over him.

"Finally... is it safe...?"

After an unknown amount of time, as if he had watched an epic war movie, Luo Bai suddenly woke up from his dream and straightened his back.

To his surprise, all his negative conditions had disappeared; his hands, feet, muscles, and broken skin had all healed, and he even had a new set of clothes.

Most incredibly, an electronic bracelet appeared on his left wrist, covering the original number tattoo as if it were embedded in his skin.

"..."

"You're awake."

It was a very ethereal voice. Still a little dazed from just waking up, Luo Bai didn't hear the first sentence clearly.

When he turned to look at the source of the sound, a girl was crouching in front of him, her face resting on her hands, like a curious child, occasionally blinking.

She was wearing a white gauze dress with a light blue ribbon tied around her neck.

Beneath the white hat was a head of striking long silver hair, and her azure eyes were like stars in a snowy night, pure and unblemished.

Such a clean girl.

Luo Bai was truly amazed and stood there speechless.

"Hmm..." Yi Lan narrowed her eyes, slowly took half a step forward, and lifted his head like she was holding a watermelon.

Her hands were a little cold, as if they were untouched by worldly affairs.

"Hehehe... Sister, he seems to be just a simpleton." She turned her head and smiled sweetly at the air, her beauty captivating.

It's also a little scary...

"Sister?" Luo Bai looked around but couldn't find anyone else.

"Are you really going to hit me?" she asked the air, her face full of innocence and reluctance.

then...

*Snap!*

soon!

With a single palm strike, he slapped Luo Bai into the snow.
