Want to play cards? I have a great deck!

You Xi pointed his finger towards his own grave, and the "krick krick" sound rang out again.

"Chain "Magician's Twin Souls", "Linking Chestnut Ball"'s effect is activated! Release 1 Level 1 monster on your field, and Special Summon this card from the Graveyard."

The figure of "Magician's Two Souls" disappeared, and the cybernetic "Connection Chestnut Ball" jumped out happily and stood in the position where "Magician's Two Souls" was just now.

And with its return, Yuki's two magic cards that became the medium for casting the "Twin Souls" spell also became new cards.

"As long as it leaves the field, 'Skill Draw' cannot negate my monster's effect, so I draw 2 cards from my deck. And because a monster is resurrected from my graveyard, 'Survivor's Treasure Card' effect draws 1."

After Tian Shi, he draws three more cards, and You Xi's hand is back to 5 cards again.

Logically speaking, after so many draws, it is impossible for him to get stuck, and he should be able to organize a swift offensive. But unfortunately, he did not draw a card like "Big Storm". With the suppression of "Skill Extraction", this idea could not be realized.

Then――

"I set up arrows with "Linking Kururugi" and "Alliance Transporter" and link summon! L-ink3, "Movie Knight Gaia Swordsman"!"

"Movie Knight Gaia Swordsman, Earth/Machine/Connection" "L-ink2/ATK: 2600"

"←↓→, 2 or more monsters"

Following Youxi's command, the two connected monsters transformed into three tornadoes with lighted arrows, and the Gaia Knight, riding on a digitized horse and his entire body also digitized, rushed out of the gate.

Originally, you had to have Feel to use monsters above L-ink3, but probably because it is also a card in the style of the "Gaia" series, this is also one of the cards printed by Yuki's gold finger.

"Is it actually a Link Monster that has no effect?"

Looking at the "Movie Knight" summoned by Youxi, Grafa said in surprise: "I didn't expect that there would be such a monster in this era?"

The biggest feature of Link Monsters is the convenience and functionality of summoning. If it has no effect, it is completely worthless.

"Anyway, we have "Skill Extraction", so it doesn't matter whether it has an effect or not. What's more important now is its attack power." Yu Xi put a card in his hand into the duel disk, "I will then activate the equip magic: "Sword in the Stone", equip this card to "Movie Knight", and make its attack power double its original value."

"Movie Knight Gaia Swordsman, ATK: 2600 → 5200"

The spear in his hand turned into the sword that King Arthur once carried, and the aura of "Movie Knight Gaia Swordsman" suddenly surged. The combined output of the monsters on Yuki's field exceeded 10,000, and even if the attack power of "Dark World Dragon God" was deducted, it was enough to clear Grafa's LP.

Well, that's assuming all the attacks can go through.

However, I don’t think it will be that easy.

You Xi thought so and declared to enter the battle phase - no matter what, there would be no progress if he didn't attack, at least he had to force Grafa's Gai Card out to see the situation.

"Go! The attack of "Movie Knight Gaia Swordsman", Spiral Data Stab!"

The electronic horse stomped its four hooves on the ground and rushed straight towards the demon dragon beast in front of Grafa. Using the indestructible blade of the "Sword in the Stone" as the tip of the spear, it pierced the chest of the "Dragon God" in one fell swoop.

――"Dragon God of Darkness" destroyed.

[Grafa LP: 7000 → 4500]

Fireworks and debris exploded, and the first battle initiated by You Xi ended successfully. However, Grafa, who was seriously injured, groaned and laughed in joy instead of surprise, as if his plan had been accomplished.

"You are really too naive, kid. You get carried away after gaining a slight advantage. Now, I will let you taste the bitter fruit of this rash attack - activate the Trap Card: "Damage Capacitor"!

"When you take battle damage, discard 1 card from your hand, and Special Summon a monster from your Deck with an attack power less than the damage value."

The Grafague card is activated, which is a monster-pulling card similar to "Soul Link".

However, "Soul Link" requires the destruction of monsters, while this card requires battle damage.

Grafa has received 2500 damage so he can Special Summon a monster with a maximum attack power of 2500. This value should not be able to stop the "Chaos Magician" with an attack power of 3500.

But for some reason, as Grafa pinched a card in the deck with two fingers, a huge chill suddenly struck Youxi's heart.

"That is--"

"Let me show you the face of God, little devil! God who is sleeping on the earth, please respond to your faithful believers at this moment and descend into this world that is destined to be destroyed!"

Grafa slammed the card down, and a faint blue flame instantly spread and exploded, engraving a huge pattern on the ground.

An incomparable terrifying existence descended before You Xi's shocked gaze.

"--Special Summon "Earthbound God Asria Pisco"! !"

Volume 114: Chapter : Earthbound God Asria Pisco! (Two in One)

"Wow... I'm so worried. I wonder how Yu Xi-kun and Xiaoxue are doing? Did you find Xiaoxue?"

As time passed, the night and moonlight grew darker, and I don’t know if it was due to my personal perception, but even the temperature seemed to drop.

Xing Yewu hugged her exposed snow-white arms with both hands. She was so cold that she regretted not wearing an extra piece of clothing when she went out.

But compared to such a small matter, she is of course more concerned about another thing now.

The girl stared at the direction where Youxi had disappeared before. She could no longer see the figure of her roommate, but she could imagine that Youxi was probably fighting with the enemy.

If she didn't have the task of guiding the Duel Guards of the Public Security Bureau here, she really wanted to stay by Youxi's side, and face the enemy together with him and Xiaoxue.

Unfortunately not.

I can only pray silently here that both of them are safe.

I don't ask for victory over my opponent, as long as I can return safely.

At this moment――

With a "woooo", a wave of feeling that made the whole body tremble instantly swept through the girl's body. An indescribable chill spread from her spine, making her hair stand on end.

It was as if some extremely terrifying top predator suddenly appeared and set its sights on his life.

The Feel power in the body involuntarily started to boil at high speed, fighting against the pressure together with his guardian spirit.

Xing Yewu looked around and found that a dark blue flame had suddenly started burning on the street.

Many passers-by and people in shops who were trapped by the flames fell to the ground and turned into light and flew into the sky. The artificial intelligences that detected the loss of the driver took over the driving or emergency brakes, narrowly avoiding traffic accidents one after another. For a while, the scenes everywhere on the street were in chaos.

"This is……"

This terrifying feeling fluctuation is...

In a trance, Xing Yewu recalled a fragment of memory that was buried in the distant past.

Now this scene is so familiar.

……

"Damn it! Is it too late?!"

He banged his fist hard, ignoring the scream coming from the steering wheel, Niu Weigang stared at the wall of fire in front of him with an extremely ugly expression.

After receiving the alarm from You Xi and Xing Yewu, he immediately brought his men over here, but in the end he was still a step too late.

The enemy had already used their ultimate trump card, and the development of the following events was no longer within his control. If things went wrong, the entire South Fourth District might fall.

"Now we can only put our hopes on those little devils..."

……

Due to limited vision, people standing on the ground probably cannot see it, but you can see it clearly from the sky.

At this moment, a huge hummingbird pattern painted with dark blue flames was carved on a large area of ​​land in the South Fourth District.

It is magnificent, yet exudes a chilling fear that sends chills down to the bottom of one's heart.

Such a big change naturally could not have happened to people from other places in the city. The news of various places taking photos and posting them on forums and group chats spread in an instant. Until the official flow of people was restricted and comments were deleted, Chenguang City suddenly became the focus of attention in many places.

You Xi, who was at the center of attention, raised his head and looked above his head.

Hundreds of meters in the air, a huge stone heart is beating, as if it has real life.

No, it's not as if, but it really is. There lives a terrifying and "great" existence in it.

[Oh my god, isn’t this something bad?! ]

"Is it really from the Earthbound God?"

As the black witch muttered, You Xi looked solemn.

Although he was not sure whether the deck used by Zhen Zhen was the "Sin" deck, as early as when he found the information related to Doomsday Bell and Zhen Zhen, he noticed that the characteristics of the blue flame pattern described in the information were very similar to the "Earthbound God" he knew. After confirming with Izayoi Yuki, he was convinced.

Therefore, Youxi was also prepared to encounter the "Earthbound God" in this duel.

However, after actually encountering it, he realized that he had thought too simply.

The feeling of death that ran through his body was unprecedented, and it was dozens of times stronger than the feeling during the dark duel. Just moving a finger required more effort than usual.

The body is frantically warning itself that death is approaching.

This is just a heart, its true form has not yet appeared.

But the strange thing is that at the same time as the premonition of death arose strongly, another feeling also subtly emerged in my heart.

Is that "disdain"? Or "anger"?

This emotion, which was completely opposite to terror, rose up like an electric current, gradually dispelling the chill that You Xi felt.

As for the source of this emotion, You Xi, who was closely related to it, could roughly guess it.

As this emotion surged, some changes seemed to be slowly occurring in his body.

"Did it still appear?"

As Yuuki looked up at the heart, Izayoi Yuki was doing the same thing.

The extremely familiar scene was reflected in the red eyes, and memories from long ago came flooding back to his mind.

Over the years, she has read through all the documents of "Doomsday Clock" and knows all the information by heart.

The reason why he wanted to end the duel quickly and OTK Grafa as much as possible was not only because of his hatred and anger, but also because he was worried about this situation.

“Hahaha! This is the god announcing the coming of the end of the world. Everything on this earth will return to the embrace of death. Only death can save the world!”

Following the summons, Grafa's entire body was covered with dark blue lines. Now, as he shouted excitedly, he looked like a fanatical cultist.

But it is not difficult to understand why Grafa is like this. After all, there are only a bunch of fanatics in a world without gods, not to mention that this is a world with gods.

Under the gazes of several people, a large number of souls were sucked into the stone heart from all directions.

As a certain critical point was reached, a giant hummingbird-like monster named "Earthbound God Asria Pisco" descended with the heart as its center.

It was several hundred meters tall, with pale yellow lines extending across its pitch-black skin, and the aura it exuded was even more terrifying than when it had only one heart.

In "Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D'S", "Earthbound God" is the embodiment of the Nazca Lines in America. He is the god of the underworld sealed in it and the symbol of the villain who fights against the protagonists. In a sense, it is quite appropriate that he will become the evil god of "Doomsday Clock".

"Earthbound God Asria Pisco, Level 10/Darkness/Bird Beast" "ATK: 2500/DEF: 2500"

The attack power of 2500 is exactly the same as the combat damage caused by You Xi. In other words, the attack launched by You Xi to maximize the results of the battle actually helped Grafa.

"Feel honored. I didn't intend to use this god to entertain you."

After summoning the "Earthbound God", Izayoi Yuki felt that the intensity of Grafa's Feeling had increased by several levels, and the pressure was even greater than before.

He said: "Now this dark duel is not just a problem between the two of you. In order to summon my god, the souls of ordinary people in this area have become sacrifices to God. This is all your fault, little brat. If you hadn't come to trouble me, this wouldn't have happened."

"What does this have to do with us? Even if we don't come, you will still become like this if you suddenly get the urge one day. And at that time, no one will stop you."

You Xi was not fooled by Grafa's twisted logic.

It is true that they might be the instigator, but in the final analysis, Grafa would have created such a tragedy with or without them.

If not today, then later. If not here, then somewhere else.

"Don't tell us you never thought of doing such a thing, Grafa."

Yuxi stared at Grafa and said, even though he couldn't see his expression through the mask, he could still sense the malice hidden under the mask towards himself, Izayoi Yuki, and the entire world.

"Humph."

Grafa did not deny that this was indeed what he had considered doing when he accepted the mission and came here.

If he doesn't make a big move before leaving, he would be unworthy of his status as a cadre of [Doomsday Clock].

"Use all your strength to defeat him, Izumi-san."

Izayoi Yuki held on physically and mentally, and said, "Those who become the sacrifices of the Earthbound God are not hopeless. As long as they are defeated in time, they will be released."

"I know."

Yuki nodded in response to the girl, then raised his head to look at the hummingbird god that had obscured even the moonlight and the sky.
