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

"Tap tap tap—"

On the keyboard, the undo key is pressed automatically and quickly.

The words "There is no such thing as a romantic duel in this world" that were written on the screen were deleted and modified word by word.

"Perhaps there is a romantic duel in this world."

There was a girl.

"Passionate yet reserved."

Chapter 705 The Spread of the Story

Biantana, in the present world.

A piercing alarm ripped through the tranquil afternoon. The sky was painted an eerie purplish-red, like the color spurting from bursting blood vessels. Countless streams of data cascaded down like waterfalls, crashing into every corner of the city and stirring up clouds of dust.

The indicator lights on the network equipment flashed wildly before finally falling silent.

Phone screens were filled with static, computer screens went black, traffic lights malfunctioned, and the entire city was instantly paralyzed.

This is not a drill, not a movie, but a real apocalypse.

The electronic world, in conjunction with awakened intelligent devices, has invaded the real world.

The signal tower was twisted into a bizarre shape, and the once bustling streets were now deserted, with only abandoned vehicles parked haphazardly in the middle of the road.

More than a thousand fortresses were isolated.

The soldiers fought against the rebellious AI, but before they could even pull the trigger, they were swallowed up by the surging digital torrent and turned into strings of meaningless code.

People who wear helmets and connect to the hot network will be drawn into the metaverse and trapped in the virtual world. Their bodies will fall to the ground like empty shells, with hollow eyes and distorted faces.

If the disaster lasts for several months, human civilization will regress by four hundred years.

The modern edifice built upon the scientific research theory of "white" will completely collapse.

This is Yuanwu's goal—to overthrow all of Bai's scientific research theories and rebuild modern civilization.

In this apocalyptic scene, a dilapidated house on the verge of collapse stands out as an incongruous element.

The walls are mottled and the windows are cracked, as if they could collapse at any moment.

Inside the room, in the dim light, an old man slowly stood up.

"In the end, she still came back..."

His face was covered in wrinkles, and he wore a faded coarse cloth shirt. In his right hand, he tightly gripped an antique deck of cards, the edges of which were badly worn, yet they radiated an indescribable light.

The old man, his body hunched over, walked slowly but firmly toward the door.

Just then, a childish voice came from deep inside the room: "Grandpa, the novel you're following has been updated!"

"Huh?" The old man paused, his face full of surprise.

The novel I'm following? Has it been updated?

Has the kid gone crazy from not being online for too long?

A little boy ran out of the room, holding a dusty tablet computer. His innocent face was filled with excitement. He held the screen up to the old man and pointed to the flashing text: "Grandpa, look! 'Duel Fairy Tale' has really been updated! It even has two new chapters!"

"what?!"

The old man's cloudy eyes suddenly widened, his pupils contracted sharply, as if spring water had suddenly gushed out of a dry well. His withered lips trembled slightly, and the veins on his right hand, which was gripping the card deck, bulged.

Eisen Library, amidst the deluge of data, uses its limited computing power to push a message to readers worldwide.

Duel Fairy Tale has been updated!

"Duel Fairy Tale" has been updated after a hiatus of 158 years!

Some of the narration has been revised, and two new chapters have been added: "The Duel of the God of Noodles" and "The Romantic Duel".

"Hope for survival..." Countless people trembled as they finished reading "The Duel of the God of Noodles" in a corner, their pupils shaking uncontrollably.

Every fortress now faces a predicament: the electronic army has cut off the network, fortresses are unable to communicate with each other, and the outside world is plunged into darkness.

It is difficult to conquer a thousand fortresses, but easy to conquer one.

The omnic rebels have a complete information advantage, and it's only a matter of time before they take down the fortresses one by one.

Solving this dilemma is actually not difficult.

Before the advent of modern civilization, humans had more traditional methods of information transmission.

Set an example by your own actions!

The hymn to humanity is a hymn to courage.

Now we need someone who can leave the comfort of the fortress's inner area and venture into the dark outside world to deliver information to the brother fortresses and unite against the enemy.

This person could be the "man in white" from "The Duel of the God of Noodles".

“It could be me!” The old man’s cloudy eyes gradually cleared, and a long-lost smile appeared on his face.

His hunched back seemed to straighten a bit.

"Child, Grandpa has to go out for a while."

The old man patted his grandson's head, rummaged through the cabinet and pulled out an old backpack, stuffed in a few compressed biscuits and some water, then carefully put the card deck close to his body, his eyes firm yet gentle, "Wait for Grandpa at home, don't wander off."

The little boy looked up at the old man, his mouth slightly open, but he couldn't say a word.

The old man looks so cool and handsome today.

Romance can be found in a girl who is both passionate and reserved.

It could also be a weathered but unyielding old man.

In the underworld, on the eleventh level of the snow mountain, a chilling announcement echoed in everyone's heart.

This match is...

【draw】

Upon hearing the word "draw," both Luo Bai and Yi Lan were taken aback, their faces filled with confusion.

In Luo Bai's view, he had already lost the moment the [Destruction Ring] was activated.

[Destroy Ring] Chain damage to [Acylia]. At this time, [Siren Mermaid] is still on her field. She doesn't take damage, only he takes 1000 damage. She loses without a doubt.

only--

Why did she give the ring to the Sirens instead of the saint?

Amidst the sounds of recollection, he seemed to understand a little, yet not entirely.

Yi Lan was also stunned.

When she activated the [Destruction Ring], her older sister in her mind screamed wildly, telling her to destroy [Akrysia].

My sister said, according to the chain reaction principle—

If the [Siren Mermaid] is destroyed, the destruction of the Graveyard will be dealt with first. She will lose due to [Soul Relay], the duel will end, and subsequent damage will not be calculated.

Give the ring to the saint; you win.

If you give the ring to a Siren, you lose.

This game cannot end in a draw; a winner and a loser must be decided.

For once, Yi Lan didn't listen to her sister.

Reality is simply a cold, hard "draw".

A draw? Why was it ruled a draw?

A draw, what's next?

Yi Lan wasn't the only one with this question; Shen Shen glanced at Mickey and asked quietly, "How could it be a draw?"

"Shouldn't the verdict be... win for the red team?"

Ordinary duelists can't see through the tricks, but Shen Shen is a celebrity after all!

She still understands the details of the rules, even when she's not blinded by anger.

“Some force has interfered with the intelligent referee,” Mickey said, spreading his hands and smiling slightly.

Shen Shen's eyes widened suddenly: "Who's so awesome?! Even AI referees can interfere?"

“Mechanical, telekinetic, the ruler of the electronic world.” Mickey raised an eyebrow and pointed to the sky, “or rather… a higher level.”

"You mean Ming—" Shen Shen was about to say something when he quickly covered his mouth and muttered, "Wow, is it going to be this big?"

"So what do we do next?" she asked, pressing for more details.

"A draw, should it be ruled a double loss? Or should we play another match?"

Mickey shrugged and said helplessly, "I don't know."

"Didn't you set the rules?!" Shen Shen shouted.

"I never imagined two people would reach the eleventh floor!" Mickey exclaimed angrily. "How was I supposed to know what would happen if the eleventh floor resulted in a tie?"

Shen Shen was confused: "What should we do? We can't just stay stuck like this, can we?"

Mickey sighed softly and said slowly, "Wait for the ruling."

The right divine messenger is responsible for establishing the rules that are explicitly stated, while the left divine messenger is responsible for handling matters outside the rules—the "adjudication."

Chapter 706 The Girl's Words

“The ruling…” Shen looked at the dueling arena with worry, “It’s not really going to be a double loss, is it?”

“No, that won’t happen.” Mickey replied decisively. “The door has already been placed on the mountaintop, so at least one person will pass through tonight. It won’t be two people, nor will it be no one.”

"Since Ming... can accept reincarnation without damage," Shen Shen changed the subject, "then why not just declare a winner and loser directly, instead of having a draw?"

"It's not redundant..."

“Shh—” Mickey put his index finger to his lips, interrupting her, “Gods are unfathomable.”

He frowned and muttered to himself, "Could it be related to the new 003..."
