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

“What I drew is—” the Pharaoh said indifferently, revealing his hand, “[The Sealed Exodia].”

The enormous phantom of the demon god reappeared.

My spirituality has increased even more since the second round.

"Demon God Flame Cannon!"

As the announcement faded, Exodia unleashed his energy cannon, and scorching flames swept across the battlefield once more.

"resonance..."

As Leia watched the approaching fiery robe, she instinctively tried to activate her Yina Resonance to resist.

Then it suddenly came to mind.

Ruins are the domain of God; resonance is forbidden there.

A chilling fear enveloped her completely, and sharp, burning pain shot through her skin.

"Boom—"

The explosion was even more intense than the last one, and the entire blue team's battlefield was completely blasted away by the shockwave, leaving only a wasteland of smoke.

The winner takes all.

[Red Team]

"Leia!" Stark shouted as she rushed forward to find her companion.

"If this continues, we'll really have to risk our lives for information." Luo Bai frowned, feeling an indescribable discomfort.

This is only the third time we've tried and failed, and the spiritual damage is already too much to ignore.

Fortunately, the red-haired girl managed to glean a very important piece of information.

[2. God will not be bound by the pot being taken by Kang; He still has a second pot in his hand.]

"A fixed starting hand of three pieces plus two pots?"

He murmured to himself, having some suspicions, but quickly dismissed them.

"Won't..."

"It can't be that simple."

The three parts plus two pots are too easy to solve. Just add a gray card and a magic PSY card, a butler card and a red finger card, and the red mermaid can jump out and give you a Karedohat card and a demon king card.

"Is it difficult?" Yi Lan asked with concern. "This is the first time I've seen you with this expression."

"Let's think about the worst-case scenario." Luo Bai pursed his lips. "We... might really not be able to get out."

"I just came here to pull some weeds, who would have thought I'd have to go head-to-head with God."

Yilan smiled gently and comforted her, "Don't you always say that the world of duels is vast and there will always be a solution?"

While the two were chatting idly...

The cold, mechanical sound rang out again.

[Victory is]

[Red Team]

With no new intelligence, the current phase involves testing whether the order of attacks is fixed by assembling a large number of troops.

[Victory is]

[Red Team]

...

[Victory is]

[Red Team]

...

Only a few minutes had passed.

Qi Qiankong looked dejected, and the number of times humanity had been defeated kept increasing in his notebook.

“5...6...7...8...9...”

Just then, the familiar mechanical sound rang out again.

But the content is—

[First strike]

[Blue Side]

[Duel Begins]

"The blue side goes first?!" Countless people stared wide-eyed.

His excitement was palpable, and hope was rekindled; attacking first was far superior to attacking second.

Luo Bai was also quite surprised. He had just written the third piece of information, "[3. God will definitely attack first]", but he had to cross it out.

The duelist who got the first strike was named Li Te, an agent from Sumeru Garden. He was ordered to go into battle. The command said that while the spirituality was not yet fatal, they should quickly test whether "God always goes first".

He himself was somewhat stunned.

The red side attacked first in the previous nine rounds, but unexpectedly, the blue side attacked first in the tenth round?

"answer--"

Five cards popped out from the duel board for both sides.

His hands were trembling, as if the weight of the world's expectations was pressing on his shoulders.

"Gaining the first strike gives us hope."

Li Te's deck includes cards that can precisely disrupt the hand, such as [Thief's Smoke Bomb] and [Ruthless Annihilation].

"There is hope..."

"If only I could see God's hand..."

He muttered to himself, swallowed hard, and slowly picked up the card.

The moment the card was picked up.

A cold voice sounded.

The winner takes all.

[Red Team]

"What?!" Everyone gasped, their eyes widening in shock.

Only Immi had anticipated this and remained unfazed.

If the goddess attacks.

“What I drew is—” the Pharaoh said indifferently, revealing his hand, “[The Sealed Exodia].”

The moment both sides confirmed their starting moves, God won immediately.

There was no means of resistance.

“This…” Li Te stared blankly at the phantom of the demon god in the sky, his hands went limp, and the card fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

"Demon God Flame Cannon!" The Pharaoh coldly issued his command.

[Exodia] unleashed the energy cannon in his hand, and the scorching flames annihilated everything.

In an instant, the intense heatwave scorched the opponent until their face was contorted in a grotesque manner, their mouth and nose indistinguishable.

"Ah—" Lee Te let out a painful howl that echoed through the tense air.

No one dared to step forward to rescue him, and his life force slowly dissipated, returning the dueling arena to calm.

"Someone's...dead..."

The hearts of the ordinary people standing in the front row skipped a beat.

"Only ten times, and its spirituality is already so strong..."

They stared at the corpses on the ground, their legs trembling, their eyes filled with terror.

I thought that taking the initiative first offered hope.

I never expected this—

To attack first is to face utter despair.

Aryas frowned as he watched this scene unfold. He handed three [Deacon] cards and three [Crimson Lotus Named One] cards to Mizuki, and while the latter was still bewildered, he said in a deep voice, "You, go and kill the god."

"Huh? What?!" Mizuki was dumbfounded.

Chapter 456 Reduction: Numbered People

"Playing is fine, joking is fine, but don't risk your life." Shui Qian rolled her eyes.

"You want me to challenge a god? Are you kidding me?"

She turned her head away, looking extremely arrogant.

“Hero!” Arias feigned seriousness, deliberately making his tone deep and tense, “We have no way out.”

"We can only rely on you now!"

Upon hearing the cry of "Hero, go down," Mizuki's eyes suddenly lit up, and he was so overjoyed that he forgot his own name.

"But...but..."

She muttered nervously, "How am I supposed to win..."

“You are a hero!” Arias gripped her hands tightly, continuing his deception, “The [Crimson Named One] can see a god’s hand and then banish one more card!”

"Think about it."

"The divine hand should consist of two Pot of Greed and three sealed limbs."

"Except for any one limb, you are the hero who has defeated God, the greatest hero ever!"
