Dark Duel, as the chairman, I have no choice but to take part in it myself!

"Activate the effect of Fenrir Wolf. Select a monster from the [Kusha Wrath] field from your deck and add it to your hand. The card I want to add to my hand is the second Fenrir Wolf."

"What's the point? It looks like a good deal, but your Fenrir Wolf can only be Special Summoned when the field is empty, right? Or have you been scared by me and made a random move? Stupid bug."

Baijie Lost Dragon habitually glanced at the opponent's graveyard, and didn't care much about Youxian's operation of looking for myself.

"The power of Fenrir Wolf is more than just for show. It won't be long before you experience it firsthand."

You Xian looked at Baijie Lost Dragon meaningfully, then revealed another quick-attack magic card and placed it on the duel disk.

"Next, I will activate the quick-play magic [Monument of the Wrathful Storm] in my hand and Special Summon a [Monument] monster from the Extra Deck."

"After activating this card, skip your next Battle Phase."

"And the one I want to special summon is [Divine Monument Wing Hu Ji]."

Under this scarlet sky, a girl who seemed out of place in the environment slowly emerged from the void.

She has jet-black hair that looks like a flowing black waterfall in the night. Her hair flutters in the wind, giving people a mysterious and weird feeling. Her wings are like black feathers, spreading behind her, exuding a sacred aura.

The girl was wearing a dark green short skirt, which fluttered gently in the wind, like a leaf dancing in the cold wind. The dark green color formed a strong contrast with the surrounding snow, making her presence particularly eye-catching.

[Light·Angel·2*·Attack 0·Defense 0]

After the girl appeared on the scene, she also discovered the pale dragon on the opposite side. She was not afraid of this existence that could easily crush her.

Not only that, the girl floating in the air also stretched out her right leg and shook it as if provoking.

As if he didn't see her performance, You Xian continued his operation indifferently.

"When Huki is successfully Special Summoned, you can discard a card from your hand to activate this effect, and add a [Divine Monument] Field Spell Card from your deck to your hand."

"I discard the second [Monument of the Wrathful Storm] in my hand and add [Fountain of the Monument] from the deck to my hand."

As soon as he finished speaking, a rather strange-looking field magic appeared in You Xian's hand.

"I activate the Field Spell Card [Fountain of Divine Monument]. As long as it is on the field, I can directly activate the Quick Play Spell of the [Divine Monument] field from my hand during the opponent's turn."

The field magic was successfully activated, and a giant round stone platform soon appeared on Youxian's field.

The gurgling spring water continuously flows into the stone platform from the claws of the demon statue in the center of the stone platform.

However, the clear spring water was stained with a blasphemous scarlet under the reflection of the sky, like a constantly flowing fountain of blood.

The White World Lost Dragon stroked the uneven ground with its sharp claws, but its scarlet eyes showed a look of reminiscence in a humane way.

"Quick Attack Magic? A deck that relies on magic? This reminds me of the field called [Spellbook]."

"Grim Reaper? That's an old thing. Even the Divine Judgment is just the last fig leaf of this backward system."

Yuxian, who played Aleister, who could theoretically cast the Divine Judgement alone, answered this way.

"Next, I will activate [Golden Shizuku's Divine Monument] in my hand. Your opponent draws a card from their deck, and then banishes the top four cards from their deck."

Golden jewels fell from the sky, thinning the card deck of the Giant Dragon a little bit while also bringing it a little "benefit" by increasing its hand to six cards.

"Draw a card for me? Is this your strategy? Or are you really so scared that you started to act recklessly?"

You Xian ignored the ridicule from the dragon and turned his gaze to the field magic on his field.

"Next, I will activate the effect of [Divine Monument Fountain] on the field, select up to three [Divine Monument] quick-play spells in the graveyard as targets, return those cards to the bottom of the deck in the order you like, and then draw that many cards from your deck."

"I recycled a total of three Quick-Play Magic Cards, so I can draw three cards from my deck."

As he said this, Youxian's deck also helped Youxian change his hand back to the original five cards.

"This recycling ability... If this effect can be used all the time, then I admit that your deck is at least as good as the deck called Spellbook in terms of resources."

"But in the end, you only have these few monsters in the frontcourt. You can't stop the opponent from developing just by relying on them."

"A simple appearance without paying a price often means poor suppression power. Even the cheapest ineffectiveness requires a 'sacrifice'."

Looking at Youxian's situation, the dragon analyzed seriously.

"Really? Then we'll have to wait and see."

You Xian did not draw the theoretically strongest lower-level suppression [Surfing Prosecutor] in the Divine Monument construction this time, otherwise just relying on [Surfing Prosecutor] itself would make the opponent experience the most extreme torture.

However, Fenrir Wolf is not a good guy. Its banishment effect will not leave any graves for the Beast of the Abyss when clearing the field. So although its continuous suppression ability is not as good as that of the skateboard, as long as it stands in the front field, the string will feel a sense of security far beyond the water knife.

Taking a look at the card he had just drawn, You Xian unconsciously smiled.

"End of round."

======================Dividing line=====================

Under the scarlet sky, Sophia's office was also filled with a deep and eerie atmosphere. The scarlet light shone through the window, dyeing everything with a layer of blood-red color, as if foreshadowing the arrival of an ominous thing.

The furnishings in the office were still gorgeous, but at this moment the gorgeousness seemed a little distorted. The delicate carved decorations became weird and strange under such light, and seemed particularly unsettling.

On the carpeted floor in the middle of the office, blood-red shadows were cast, reminiscent of the breath of death.

In this eerie and quiet room, a young girl's eyelids moved slightly, as if some force was struggling with her will.

But in the end, her will finally prevailed over her opponent, and she once again opened her eyes in this world full of fog and deception.

Sophia rubbed her head which was aching for some reason, but the first thing she saw was a blood-red color.

"This is...?"

Chapter 158: The Beast of the Abyss, the Hejie Dragon

Under the scarlet sky, the laboratory where the 'President' had stayed seemed even more mysterious and frightening. The tall building cast a deep and strange shadow under the red light, as if it was a forbidden place where the truth could not be revealed.

The outer wall of the laboratory was illuminated by red light, looking like blood stains, and it looked extremely gloomy. The huge glass windows let out dim light, making it difficult to see what was happening inside. The red light on the windows gave people an ominous feeling, as if it was telling some terrible secret.

Inside the laboratory, a person was moving around in the corridor.

I don’t know why, but his expression kept changing as he walked.

Sometimes he was ferocious, sometimes kind, and sometimes surprised, as if there were several different consciousnesses in his body frantically fighting for the right to control his body.

"Has the ritual been successful?"

"No, this cannot go on. Those dragons must not fall into the hands of those people. So everything I did was right. This was not done out of my own desire but had a deeper meaning..."

Shule, who was sore all over after having just experienced a great battle, looked up at the scarlet starry sky in the distance with difficulty, but there was not a trace of warmth left in his heart.

Just as he and You Xian expected, after returning to that place, he did not immediately gain the trust of the Shining Assembly.

Even after meeting their president, they first checked the composition for a while, and only when no problems were found was Shule given a "certain degree" of freedom.

During the return process, the people in The Shining Assembly have been trying to emphasize Shul's importance to The Shining Assembly.

He also said that people were sent to rescue him immediately after he was caught.

It seemed as if the Shining Assembly would be paralyzed on the spot if he left.

The president was just about to say, "When I feel the time is right, I will entrust everything to you."

If Shul had just joined the Shining Gathering, he might have been deceived by them, but now he is no longer the stupid man who was kept in the dark in the past.

Huh? At this point, how could he still be fooled by such a stupid lie? Impossible, he knew very well that he was an abandoned child.

Arranged someone to rescue him?

So why didn't the so-called savior appear when he was being punished?

If he asked this question, he would probably only get an answer like 'The rescuers were held back by the investigation team', right?

After all, these are just excuses that The Shining Assembly used to pua him.

He is destined to be abandoned. No matter how bright and brilliant he looks now, he will inevitably fall into the abyss in the end.

"Unfortunately, plans have changed."

Shul, who had disguised himself as another person, looked coldly at the scarlet sky above. Although he could roughly guess what had happened, there was only a biting cold in his heart.

Due to the chain reaction caused by Youxian and the students' actions, the grand ceremony was brought forward for a long time, which did not allow Shul to find much opportunity to explore the deeper secrets hidden in the Shining Assembly.

But perhaps he should be thankful for this. Although the power of the Shadow Requiem in him can be hidden from the 'President', it is unlikely to be hidden from certain beings beyond human beings.

And his desire to explore the deeper secrets of The Shining Assembly inevitably involves the existence hidden in the deepest part.

In short, due to the change in plan, Shul, unable to contact Youxian, changed his plan of gathering intelligence to hunting down the remaining members of the Shining Gathering and gathering intelligence at the same time.

Hunting is the main purpose, and gathering intelligence is just a by-product.

His ultimate goal is revenge, and his cooperation with You Xian is only because both parties have common interests.

So since this 'Mark of He' cannot convey the instructions to him at this time, let him make the choice himself.

"The Shining Assembly...I will never let you go."

He lowered his head to look at the broken body on the ground, and casually swung the knife with his right hand twice to shake off the blood on the blade of the knife in his hand.

After doing all this, a bloodthirsty smile slowly emerged on his cold yet calm face.

It’s not enough...the taste of blood is not enough.

The ritual has ended, and killing someone after accepting 666 sacrifices will not speed up the ritual.

So when the ceremony ended, Shul stabbed the dagger he had prepared long ago into his unsuspecting "companion" beside him.

Then came the second one, the third one... Taking advantage of the absence of the main force of the Shining Assembly and the departure of the president, he continued to take the lives of people from the Shining Assembly.

But the more he killed, the more empty he felt, and in the end, what came over him was an indescribable desire, mixed with the pleasure of revenge.

Just as he did—tonight, Shul would join the hunt.

=================Dividing line=================

In the silent office, a person who was deep in dream was awakened from his sleep.

At least at this moment, she took off all her disguises and defenses, and looked at the world in front of her with her own eyes in confusion.

"I...what's wrong?"

The girl rubbed her head. Although the scarlet everything around her kept warning her that the situation was not good, the girl, who had been unconscious for too long, had no ability to make any judgments.

If her memory served her correctly, this should be her office. Although she didn't know why the surroundings became like this and why her teacup was placed on a shelf away from the table, this was definitely her office.

At this moment, just like in the legend, the protagonist who just woke up from another world or dream must have a guide, Sophia also heard the voice of her "guide".

"you're awake?"

It was a soft and elegant voice. Just by speaking it made people feel relaxed and happy, just like the singing mermaids in myths and legends.

Naturally, the sound immediately caught her attention, causing the girl to turn her gaze in that direction immediately.

And what appeared before her...was actually a mermaid girl!

Under this scarlet light, the mermaid girl wearing a silver crown looked out of place. Her long silver hair fell like a waterfall, gently emitting a faint luster.

Her skin is as white as snow, with a faint pearlescent glow and a fresh breath. Her delicate body lines are smooth and elegant, like an elf in the water, light and free.

Although her lower body is slightly inconsistent with the legend, her legs are indeed a pair of fish tails.

It’s just... I don’t know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but she was sitting in the seat where she used to work, which seemed like she was the host.

Although the mermaid in front of her looked familiar for some reason, Sophia still looked at her warily and asked:

"who are you?"

"Narcissus Mermaid, or you can take me as your jailer."

The mermaid girl's lips curled up slightly, and she still seemed to have no intention of standing up from Sophia's chair.

"jailer?"

At this moment, her memory suddenly came flooding back to her like a tide.

"No, I remember now. It was Aleister who tried to save me before I passed out."

"He failed?"

Recalling the word "jailer" mentioned by the mermaid girl, Sophia immediately had some bad associations.

Could it be that after Youxian arrived at the place, he also overturned? That's too much...

But this is not impossible. After all, the card deck called Satellite Shining is too outrageous. She had almost no ability to resist and was easily crushed.

It would be extremely difficult to deal with such an opponent even if You Xian was the chairman of Shenghua.

But the Narcissus Mermaid shook her head casually and argued seriously:

"Of course not. My master is destined to become the strongest duelist. How could he be defeated by a man like that?"
