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

Nanyang Ling took a deep breath, raised her hand, and slowly inserted the first card into the groove of the stone door.

The card fits perfectly into the groove, making a slight "click" sound, as if some kind of mechanism has been triggered.

Nanyang Ling's gaze became even more determined as she continued to place the second and third cards one by one, each movement showing extreme caution.

Seeing this, Luo Bai had no choice but to follow suit and embed her own patterned card into the groove.

As the last heat-pattern card was inserted, the ancient patterns on the stone door seemed to come alive, with a faint light flowing across the door, outlining a mysterious and complex pattern.

The two of them took a step back in unison, watching the stone gate nervously.

My heart was pounding like a drum.

The flames illuminated the patterns on the stone gate, making the phoenix pattern on it appear lifelike, as if it were about to leap out of the gate. The flames spread along the patterns, gradually covering the entire stone gate, and the surrounding air became scorching hot.

Luo Bai's eyes widened; he recognized the pattern.

【Phoenix - Winged Dragon of Ra】

Like Dibel, an ominous premonition welled up in his heart, and for the first time, he had the thought of retreating.

Osiris's guardian is the god Pharaoh.

Despite his extraordinary abilities, he ultimately relied on duels to prove himself, seeking victory through fair means and reason.

And the guardians of the Winged Dragon of Ra, if my intuition is correct.

That's not a good thing.

Luo Bai wanted to say what Dibel hadn't said: "How about we just let it go this time? The top four are enough to allow for reincarnation."

"Or we can wait for another term."

There were so many things I wanted to say to discourage him, but I couldn't bring myself to say them.

Nanyang Ling's eyes were filled with madness, and he kept muttering to himself, "The sun...the sun!"

These two words seemed to have another meaning for him.

The sun is right in front of us.

He can't back out, no matter who tries to persuade him.

Luo Bai understood his gaze, sighed deeply, and said nothing more.

With a loud bang, the stone door slowly opened, and the firelight flickered on the walls on both sides of the passage, illuminating the figures of the two people.

Luo Bai and Nanyang Ling stepped inside, and the stone door behind them slammed shut, instantly brightening the surroundings. The sight before them made them hold their breath.

The ground was covered by a thin layer of ice. Through the ice, one could vaguely see the bottomless abyss below, where magma surged and roared.

The air was thick with heat. The two walked carefully, each step causing the ice to crack under the strain, as if it might break at any moment.

The ice surface gradually melted under the scorching heat, and transparent water droplets slid down the edge and dripped into the lava below, making a hissing sound.

Hot air billowed out of the crack, blurring the view.

There seems to be a figure ahead.

Luo Bai and Nanyang Ling exchanged a tense glance, then approached the figure cautiously, asking, "Who is it?"

Until the distance between the two people and the figure reached the radius of the dueling arena.

The rising steam dissipated with a roar, and the figure was clearly revealed in front of the two.

It was a mummified corpse.

The mummified corpse's skin clung tightly to its bones, displaying an unnatural grayish-yellow hue. Its sunken eye sockets were empty and lifeless, exuding a chilling madness.

Its lips curled slightly upward, as if silently mocking everything.

The mummified corpse gripped a golden staff tightly, its surface engraved with ancient runes, and the Thousand-Year Eye on it emitted a faint yet eerie light.

“Malik…” Luo Bai suddenly opened his eyes wide.

The mummified corpse was unrecognizable, leaving only a grotesque outline.

Suddenly, a sea of ​​fire rose from around the mummified corpse, the flames dancing in the air as if they were alive, illuminating the entire space as if it were daytime. The mummified corpse's figure was distorted and terrifying in the firelight, its eye sockets deep and empty, as if it were staring at Luo Bai and Nanyang Ling.

"Hahaha--"

The mummified corpse's lips curled slightly upward, emitting a strange and hoarse laugh, as if it were an echo from the depths of hell.

"Two hundred years!"

"Hahaha... Finally, someone's here..."

The laughter echoed in the empty room, sending chills down one's spine.

Nanyang Ling and Luo Bai exchanged a glance, their brows furrowed, and tacitly separated into combat positions.

The laughter abruptly stopped, and the mummified corpse slowly raised the staff in its hand, its movements stiff and slow.

"Dark...Game..."

It grinned, twisting its lips, and let out a hoarse groan. The eye at the tip of the thousand-year-old tin staff burst forth with a dark light, the ground began to tremble, and the runes on the walls gradually appeared. Countless vengeful spirits poured into the mummified body, emitting an eerie blue light.

The spiritual energy surged suddenly, and the withered corpse gradually began to rise from its earthen-yellow flesh.

"Retreat quickly!" Luo Bai whispered, turning around and backing away.

That B-millennium staff, it seems to still work?!

Nanyang Ling's face showed a look of shock, and she turned and retreated.

The runes on the wall flickered with an ominous light, the mechanisms in the room were quietly triggered, and several huge cracks appeared on the ice beneath their feet, ruthlessly cutting off their escape route.

The black mist spread rapidly from all sides, as thick as night, shrouding the entire space in shadow.

"That bastard is really going to use underhanded tactics." Luo Bai cautiously looked around.

Normally there would be no need to worry, but due to the special rules of the snow mountain, Yi Na was suppressed to below 100,000, and his leadership ability was also sealed.

"Let's begin, the Dark Game!" A hoarse, maniacal laugh echoed from all around.

Dense beams of light shot out from the black mist, swift and deadly like venomous snakes, with no way to dodge them.

Luo Bai and Nan Yangling were hit at the same time, and at the other end of the shadow line, they were connected to the dried corpse Malik, who had recovered some flesh and blood.

"One against two?" Luo Bai frowned in confusion.

The Biantana intelligent referee does not have a one-against-many setting. What does it mean that one port hits two targets?

A duel between two people, with three people participating?

"Today is a banquet of darkness, so let the sacrifices join in the performance!"

Malik's eyes gleamed with madness, his lips twisted in a grimace as he reveled in the chaos and terror.

He raised the Millennium Staff high, and the Millennium Eye emitted an even more intense, dark light: "Come, become part of the Dark Game!"

A hoarse yet passionate voice echoed throughout the space.

“The sun…” Nanyang Ling’s gaze gradually became vacant, and she murmured something to herself, as if she were being controlled by some invisible force.

His feet moved forward involuntarily, step by step, until he entered the dueling arena.

"Hey, wake up!" Luo Bai shouted, trying to reach out and stop Nan Yangling, but the shadow lines bound him and he couldn't move.

"Duel." Nanyang Ling unfolded the duel disk and murmured weakly.

Malik grinned maniacally: "Become a sacrifice to darkness!"

"Hahaha..."

"I'll let you have the first strike."

[First strike]

[Blue Side]

[Duel Begins]

"My turn." Nanyang Ling glanced at her hand indifferently, then slapped down a card, "Summon [Flame Queen. Fire God Phoenix]."

The alluring woman was like a dancing flame, her skirt billowing, the flames transforming into the wings of a phoenix.

[Princess Yan] seemed to sense something, and looked at Malik with disgust. She waved her sleeve, and a ball of flame rushed towards Nanyang Ling, dispelling the dark aura that enveloped him.

Nanyang Ling's vision gradually cleared, and he shook his head, trying to shake off the confusion he had just felt.

"This is…"

He murmured softly, his expression slowly hardening: "Activate the effect of [Flame Queen]!"

"Destroy 1 FIRE monster from your hand or field other than this card, and add 1 FIRE monster from your Deck to your hand."

Malik's smile froze instantly, a cold rage flashing in his eyes. He gripped the Millennium Staff tightly, his lips twitching slightly, revealing a look of resentment and cunning.

"Flame King?"

The brainwashing of the Thousand-Year-Old Staff was actually dispelled by a single Card Spirit.

"[Flame King]..." Luo Bai frowned, the magma man before him slowly merging with the figure in his memory. His mind suddenly cleared, and he exclaimed, "Nanyang Ling?!"

I couldn't recognize him before using the [Soul] mod.

He had only seen the [Soul] once before, in the dungeon, when a sexy woman named Red Leaf used it.

No matter how indistinguishable the lava man in front of me was from a human, he still had predominantly male features, which is why I didn't recognize him.

"How did you become like this..."

Luo Bai's voice trembled slightly; after all, they were teammates who had played together in the league.

Nanyang Ling did not respond, but instead showed another card in her hand and said, "I activate the effect of [Flame King Beast Kirin] and Special Summon [Flame King Beast Ganesh] which destroyed cards in my hand."

Amidst the raging flames, the Qilin emerged from the fire, its deafening cry echoing through the heavens.

Immediately afterwards, [Flame Queen] waved her hand, shattering the illusion of [Qilin], and [True Flame King Phoenix Undying Bird] flew into Nanyang Ling's hand.

"A beautiful chain store." Luo Bai's eyes lit up.
