Chapter 458 Slash 3: The Hero

"If you have no cards on your field, this card can be activated from your hand," the Pharaoh said slowly, his tone carrying an undeniable authority. "Negatively activate [Ice Barrier Dragon Trident]!"

A bolt of lightning struck down, forcibly lowering the proud head of the Trident Dragon, as if humans were unable to resist the humble reverence before a god.

“Infinite…” Luo Bai stood there, stunned, muttering to himself, filled with endless confusion and shock.

“Illusion…” Juska seemed to lose his breath, a sudden chill ran through his body, and his voice trembled with despair.

It was as if all efforts had been in vain.

Throughout the venue, countless people stared blankly, their hearts trembling.

"Why...why..." they asked, trembling, but no one could answer. Fear and anger intertwined into a dark, oppressive mass.

"Isn't God supposed to start with two pots and three parts?!"

Someone cried out this long-standing consensus in despair, but at this moment, the statement seems so absurd and fragile.

"It's not that simple after all." Luo Bai clenched his teeth, his whole body tensing up.

Yi Lan also realized the seriousness of the problem, and her face turned ashen.

The terror in Juska's eyes grew more pronounced. She retreated step by step, now completely powerless to resist: "How could this be..."

【Ding--】

Time will return to God's hands.

At this moment, the entire audience fell silent.

"Activate the spell card—[Pot of Greed]." The Pharaoh's voice remained unchanged, as if what had just happened was merely a trivial incident.

"Draw two cards."

Two cards are quickly added to the hand, making it four cards in total.

"Activate the Spell Card - Pot of Greed".

"Draw two cards."

"What I drew was—"

The Pharaoh indifferently revealed his entire hand, his voice calm and cold.

"【The Sealed Exodia】".

In an instant, a colossal phantom of a demon appeared high in the sky, its hideous face violently illuminated by raging flames. The entire area was instantly shrouded in the shadow of fear and despair.

"Demon God Flame Cannon!"

A sea of fire descended from the sky, its intense flames reflecting in every pair of eyes filled with despair.

Upon seeing the approaching flames, Juska clenched her teeth, and crimson dragon scales instantly rose from her skin. Her expression turned ferocious as she transformed into the [Crimson Dragon Girl] form.

"what!!!"

She let out an angry and painful roar, spread her wings to try to resist the scorching fireballs, and struggled desperately against the flames.

"Boom—"

A violent impact accompanied by an explosion caused Juska to let out a muffled, painful scream as all the scales on his body were burned away. The shockwave spread across the battlefield, leaving behind a charred landscape and specks of embers on the ground.

The winner takes all.

[Red Team]

"Juska!" A hint of worry flashed in Ilan's eyes as she rushed towards the dilapidated figure.

Luo Bai glanced at the Pharaoh and followed closely behind.

Juska lay on the ground, reverted to human form by the attack, his scales tattered and on the verge of death.

“Juska…” Ilan hurriedly stepped forward and gently placed her fingers on her neck. A warm and gentle energy seemed to begin to flow into her body.

Soon after, Juska's complexion gradually regained some color, and she opened her eyes with difficulty.

Seeing this, Luo Bai breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself, "Thank goodness, I'm safe."

Just then, the Pharaoh slowly spoke, his voice devoid of emotion: "Next."

Just three short words.

A statement that has absolutely nothing to do with a duel.

Upon hearing this, Luo Bai clenched his fists and turned away angrily.

Upon seeing this, Yi Lan quickly grabbed him: "Calm down!"

"We don't have enough intelligence... We can't afford to lose..."

"If you also fall ill... I really don't know what I would do."

She stared at him blankly, her eyes trembling, filled with a hint of helplessness and pleading.

"I'll explode at you!" From afar, Shui Qian suddenly roared.

She turned to look at Arias, and under his stunned gaze, demanded, "Give me the card!"

"【Shadow Deck Destruction Virus】".

"【Demon Deck Destruction Virus】".

"【Dark Deck Destruction Virus】".

"Give them all to me! I want him to follow me to the extreme!"

"And your Rabillins cards, give them all to me."

Arias stared blankly, as if he didn't recognize the person in front of him: "Have you thought this through? You won't be able to obtain the Aramean Ritual from the ruins."

In her understanding.

Mizuki is an extremely cowardly and afraid-of-death person; if things go wrong, he'll drive away.

People like this often call themselves heroes.

"I haven't decided yet." Mizuki took the card, in a state of mixed fear and anger.

"All I know is that in one minute, I will calm down."

"While I'm still a fool."

"I've already slammed him!!!"

She roared and stepped onto the stage, more courageous than ever before.

With two clicks, both sides activated their duel disks.

"Duel!" (X2)

[First strike]

[Red Team]

[Duel Begins]

Shui Qian glanced at his hand, his heart pounding, his excited mind gradually cooling down.

"Activate the spell card—" The Pharaoh gave no time to breathe, mechanically slapping down the first card, "[Pot of Greed]."

"Draw two cards."

"How can I let you draw it!" Shuiqian shouted, following up with the chain, "Activate [Saint King's Shatter], negate [Pot of Greed]."

"then--"

"Chain 3, activate the effect of the card [Outlaw Knight] in your hand, Special Summon this card!"

"Chain 4: Activate the effect of [Arias the Butler of the Silver City], discard this card, and set one Normal Trap Card in your hand. Cards set by this effect can also be activated during the turn they are set."

【Crushing of the Holy King】 has a self-restraint effect; after activation, you cannot activate the effects of Dark, Water, or Fire monsters during this duel. It can be chained with 【Butler】 and 【Knight】.

A hidden trap was laid, and a knight in a jet-black cloak appeared as summoned.

The Pot of Greed was shattered by the Holy King in one blow.

"Open the face-down card—" Mizuki waved his hand, "[Shadow Deck Destruction Virus]!"

"Release the 【Outlaw Knight】 on the field, monsters on the opponent's field, cards in the opponent's hand, and all cards drawn by the opponent within 3 turns (calculated from the opponent's turn)."

"Destroy all monsters with a defense of 1500 or less within that area!"

Upon hearing this, the crowd erupted in fervor: "Look at God's hand?!"

“Tsk—” Immy clicked her tongue softly, “Really brave, daring to look at God’s hand.”

"Den-"

The Pharaoh's thousand-year-old eye on his forehead emitted golden light once more, and what was even more terrifying was...

This time.

A red aura rose from God's entire body.

"This is..."

Reishardt's pupils contracted, and his anger resonated at that moment.

“We lost.” Luo Baiyuan stared blankly at the scene.

The intelligence notebook he was holding trembled slightly.
