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

I might still lose the final duel, but I have to save face.

"I don't believe you still have [Continuous Blade]!"

"I'm truly sorry." Luo Bai smiled knowingly, his gaze suddenly sharpening.

"Quick attack magic——"

"【Flash Blade Activation - Combo】!"

"Send [Saten] to the grave, Special Summon - [Sky Striker Princess - Shizuku]".

Nicole Fia's eyes widened in trembling, the baby in her arms shaking: "This...how...is this...possible..."

“【Shizuku】, direct attack,” Luo Bai said softly.

[Shizuku] Her entire mecha body changes, and several floating devices pop out and assemble into a cannon muzzle.

"Om-"

The azure energy converged, emitting a chilling hum.

"Goodbye."

Luo Bai said calmly.

"Boom—"

The beam of light shot through the night sky, shattering Nicole Fia into pieces with a single blow.

Red team's LP: 700 → 0

[Duel Ended]

The winner takes all.

[Blue Side]

The chilling voice echoed in the minds of the undead, and each ghost moved backward as if it had seen a ghost.

Chapter 557 The New Moon Approaches (The End)

The winner takes all.

[Blue Side]

[Duel Ended]

As the intelligent referee's announcement faded, the festering Nicolofia began to stir. Black mist rose from the ground, its face became increasingly distorted, and its body emitted a foul stench.

"what--"

"flesh!"

She opened her mouth wide and let out a deafening roar, her hands flailing wildly in the air like a drowning person, desperately trying to get closer to Luo Bai and grab his sleeve.

Even just a light touch.

Luo Bai stared indifferently at the hand slowly dissipating in the wind, remaining unmoved.

Ultimately, life and death are separate matters.

The moment the black mist palm touched him, it vanished like smoke.

A black dot of light rose from the black mist, and Nicole Fia transformed into a [Chaos Factor] and floated into the air.

【Ding--】

The supercomputing ring trembled slightly, and Luo Bai looked down in surprise.

This is a notification that an attribute change has occurred.

【Yi Na +4580】

Luo Bai raised an eyebrow, pressed a few buttons on the supercomputing ring, and brought up his basic attributes.

It was discovered with shock.

The maximum number of acetylenes increased from over 79 to just over 80.

"Winning against this thing will increase your B-points?"

At this rate, if we win another forty or fifty games, wouldn't we reach a million points to upgrade to Saint Image?

After reaching the Saintly Elephant rank, the immense power of the Yina will be able to be released and [spread].

This means that it is possible to resonate with giant or terminal-type monsters, just like with Edo Tensei.

or--

Passing your own Yi Na to others.

Even after death, due to the high amount of residual argon and the thick barrier, consciousness can remain for a longer period after entering the underworld.

There is a greater chance of reincarnation.

In Biantana, the tassel signifies "transcendence," and the holy image signifies "the upper class."

Luo Bai slowly raised his head, looking at the undead, his eyes flashing with a strange light.

I've lived too long.

Even the undead have handsome features.

This isn't the dead; the underworld is overflowing with gold!

The undead who faced him shuddered violently, swallowed hard, and retreated step by step.

"Let's duel!" Luo Bai's eyes were sharp as he pounced on the opponent like a hungry ghost.

The undead were terrified and scattered with screams: "Ah—no!"

Luo Bai missed his target and looked somewhat disappointed.

"Tsk, can't touch it..."

In less than three seconds, the hundreds of undead who were watching scattered in all directions.

I was terrified by a real evil spirit.

"As expected of you, Teacher Bai." Chen Xinxin shook her head and sighed, "I was really worrying for nothing."

"At least you still remember the duel..."

Luo Bai was taken aback, his brows furrowing: "What do you mean... luckily I remember the duel? Isn't that normal?"

"Uh—" Chen Xinxin covered her head and sighed, not knowing how to explain.

At this moment, Mickey, who was standing to the side, stared at the camera and said leisurely without turning his head: "The first rule of the underworld."

"All spirits in the underworld—"

"There will be a continuous loss of yin and spirituality."

"The Necromancer Flow is completed and then factorized."

“Living beings have physical bodies, and their essence and spirit are lost slowly, and there is a threshold. If you don’t overdraw on the threshold, you will retain 20% of your essence. If you don’t do stupid things, you won’t die.”

"You mean I..." Luo Bai's pupils trembled, "...have amnesia?"

For the previous sixteen hours, I wasn't sleeping in the cabin.

Rather, it was because they experienced something.

And then, you forgot about it again?

"That--"

His voice faltered.

"I forgot... something."

Chen Xinxin pursed her lips and said with a wry smile, "How could we possibly know..."

Luo Bai suddenly became impatient: "Is there any way to retrieve my memories?"

He is now very certain.

I've really forgotten some things.

"Teacher, you..." Chen Xinxin's mouth opened slightly, somewhat surprised, "Forgot?"

"That's not right..."

"The rules say... the rules won't be forgotten...?"

The method to retrieve memories is one of the [Rules of the Underworld], the most basic spiritual level, which is what is forgotten last.

Like some undead, they wander for decades.

It will also remember what is needed for reincarnation.

"You've really messed up." Mickey chuckled, then offered an explanation.

"The essence of retrieving memories is to increase spirituality, and the method is to create stories."

"The simplest—"

"A duel," Luo Bai interrupted, his eyes narrowing.

"I just won, so why didn't I... regain any memories?"

"That's just fifty spirits possessing the body," Mickey said with a dismissive smile.

"Fifty spirits entangled?"

"Before the duel begins, the undead watching will place bets, wagering themselves on the outcome. If the undead they bet on wins the duel, they can get a share of the spoils; if they lose, they will be transformed into a being."

"The more spirit entanglements a spirit has, the stronger it becomes, and the more complex the spirit cards it can use."

"Fifty spirit bonds, with that little bit of spiritual energy, it's incomprehensible even for [extra] purposes, it's good enough to just maintain the consumption."

To put it simply...

The opponent was too weak; the spiritual energy gained from defeating him was not enough to restore his memories.

"So that's how it is..." Luo Bai muttered to himself, then looked up and asked, "How can a living being initiate a duel invitation?"
