Why fight the Holy Grail War? Let's play cards!

Bai Qiang's delight didn't last long before she saw an indescribable shadow appear around the corner ahead. All sorts of intuition flooded her mind, her consciousness telling her that the object ahead looked like stone, like tree, and like a person. It was everything inorganic, and everything organic. It was absolute chaos.

This feeling was even stronger than the reaction Nero had caused at the time. Bai Qiangdai felt that the rules of the world had become chaotic. This feeling was indescribable, as if he had become a different person, and his thoughts became a mess.

"Jiang You! Get ready, there are enemies!"

Bai Qiangdai was certain that this was a being even more terrifying than the one possessing Nero. Now that he was afraid there was no way to escape, Bai Qiangdai decided to give it a try and launched an attack on the unknown being.

Her magic power was released at maximum power, and this was her strongest charge ever.

"Enemy? Where?"

As soon as Jiang You came over, he saw the dazzling golden light occupying the entire corridor rushing towards him like a tide. He was very familiar with this magic, it was from Bai Qiang.

"what?"

Bai Qiangdai felt that the holy spear had stabbed the enemy, but all his strength disappeared at this moment. It was as if his charge was interrupted and he stopped abruptly without even the inertia.

At this distance, Bai Qiangdai realized that the person in front of him was Jiang You.

"It's you!?"

Bai Qiangdai was extremely shocked. Illya in her arms was still resisting Nero's demonic sound and hadn't fully recovered yet, so she didn't react. However, because she was too close to Jiang You, the discomfort made Bai Qiangdai almost unable to hold the Holy Spear steady.

"Of course it's me, who else could it be?"

Jiang You asked back, looking at Bai Qiangdai, who was gritting his teeth. But just as he asked, combined with the background noise, he could probably understand what was going on. Nero must have deployed his Noble Phantasm, which was really worrying.

Jiang You was about to explain, but Bai Qiang was almost at her limit after staying in such close contact with the Outer God Apex (a weakened version, although it is actually an enhanced version, but Jiang You is only borrowing the spiritual base. It is the Azathoth he understands now. It is very strong, but not invincible. In the final analysis, it is on the same level as the Crown. In terms of combat power, it is only close to T0P, because the protagonist really has no martial arts and skills.).

"I knew it was you...but I didn't expect that even you..."

Bai Qiangdai made up his mind that Jiang You, who had turned into an evil person, would cause too much harm to the world. Nero could only destroy one world at most, but Jiang You could erase all history.

"Jiang You, for the sake of this world, I must kill you here!"

Bai Qiangdai's spiritual base began to burn, turning into surging magic power.

"I've been very happy during the time you summoned me. The 21st century is very interesting. If possible, I would like to be with you again, as an ordinary girl, to see more scenery and meet more people. Thank you so much... Jiang You."

The Holy Spear was fully unleashed, a full-strength attack that would ignite her spiritual essence. This was the greatest effort she could make, and no matter what the outcome, she would completely dissipate.

"So, for Jiang You's efforts, and for this world, please leave here—Holy Spear, draw—"

"No, no, wait a moment!"

Jiang You quickly waved his hands. How could this idiot not even give him a chance to speak? Why did the whole scene feel like the final battle? Did someone in FGO have to sacrifice their spiritual base to launch an attack?

This is exactly the effect Bai Qiangdai wanted. Jiang You's current existence carries a very serious spiritual pollution. If she listens to his words carefully, she dare not imagine what the consequences will be.

At the critical moment, Jiang You used his traditional skills.

"I accept your duel!"

431

Chapter 431: If we can’t talk, then let’s duel!

A duel could forcibly interrupt all actions of both parties, drag them into the duel space, and eliminate all influencing factors. Even Nero's singing outside was blocked.

In this state, the mental pollution brought by Jiang You was also isolated, and Bai Qiangdai successfully returned to normal.

"A duel? It seems like it's just like Nero's Golden Theater. The original Noble Phantasm has been preserved. But something strange has happened."

Bai Qiangdai looked at Jiang You with a serious expression. She was no match for Jiang You in the first place, and now it was probably even more impossible.

"What could it be? An unfair duel?"

"Stop talking to yourself there!"

Jiang You actually heard it all, and this kind of duel was never fair. In a normal game, even if you didn't have a counter, you could still win by five-speed in the top right corner. Most card games couldn't escape the issue of being imprisoned after being on the second turn.

"Could you please listen to my explanation first? Don't make it seem like I'm the same as the fallen evil (?)?"

"I refuse! Words cannot be used to distinguish true from false, but spiritual bases will not lie. How could Jiang You have such an evil spiritual base!"

Azathoth represents the chaos of the universe, but for creatures on Earth, this disordered horror is evil.

"Actually, this is my original spiritual foundation, although I only just found out about it."

Jiang You didn't know how the programmer designed it. He originally thought that Atem was already heavyweight enough, but now it seems that the identity setting is heading directly for the finale. Normally, there is no spiritual base more outrageous than this.

"It seems that even when my inherent skills are activated, there is also a strong mental pollution."

Unlike Nero, Jiang You can disable his own inherent skills. After disabling them, he is basically the same as Caster, and the effects of the counter system are completely converged.

"I can't usually start showing off, so it seems a bit tasteless now."

Jiang You had always been troubled by his lack of a powerful aura. He had thought this inherent skill could make up for being constantly treated as a small fry, but the mental pollution was too strong, even the Heroic Spirit couldn't withstand it. To ensure those around him wouldn't go crazy, he had no choice but to keep it disabled. "Is it okay now? Take another look?"

Bai Qiangdai carefully sensed Jiang You's condition and found that he had indeed returned to his original state. The evil aura had completely disappeared. However, her face turned even paler. "I can actually disguise myself to this extent..."

"So in your eyes I must be a villain."

Bai Qiangdai already had a preconceived notion, what could he do? "There's no point in talking any more, I'm going to beat you to your knees!"

"Sure enough, there's no way to avoid fighting! It's just as well. Even if the hope is slim, I'm going to give it a try. Jiang You, just wait. This time, I'll correct you!"

Bai Qiangdai once again made up his mind, "I'm going to start the dark game. If I lose, you evil thing, go back to where you came from, and then I'll return Jiang You's body to him!"

"No, what if I really lose?"

Jiang You didn't quite understand. This body was his own. He could go back to where he came from. Could he force himself to log out?

In fact, there is no need to worry about it at all, because the Dark Game failed to launch.

"...It didn't work. Doesn't the Dark Game allow you to force anything you can do instinctively?"

Bai Qiangdai tried to launch the Dark Game again, but failed again.

"So, I am who I am, okay? Can you please listen to me?"

Jiang You tries to prove that he is himself.

"So the Noble Phantasm has mutated, hasn't it?"

Bai Qiangdai's eyes were sharp, "The rules of the duel have also been changed!"

"You are so stubborn!"

Jiang You completely gave up trying to convince Bai Qiang, and said, "Anyway, as long as we win, that's all that matters, right? I'll attack first!"

Jiangyou LP 4000.

White Gun Dai LP 4000.

"Speaking of which, there are quite few people who have played cards with me twice. Gilgamesh doesn't count. After all, one was a clone, and the other was from a different timeline."

Jiang You drew out five cards and looked at the cards in his hand. He couldn't help but smile arrogantly.

Jiang You actually occasionally showed this expression when playing cards, but Bai Qiangdai had never seen it very often, and there was also an element of selective ignorance.

"Don't make that expression with Jiang You's face!"

"What kind of image do you have of me?"

Jiang You always felt that his image in their eyes was fluctuating.

"Now, we card players often make this expression, okay!"

"Impossible! How could a human make such an expression?"

I can only say that Bai Qiangdai knows too little about facial expressions.

"Anyway, on my turn, I activate the Field Spell Card [Underworld]!"

I got Elle's card a long time ago, but I never used it. Now that I got the card that can be used to complement it, of course I have to add it to the deck.

"Once per turn, send the top five cards of your opponent's deck to the Graveyard. For every Servant sent to the Graveyard by this effect, summon a 500/500 [Undead Token] on your side of the field!"

"This is the card of the goddess of the underworld!"

It's not like Bai Qiang hadn't come into contact with Ailei when he was in Fuyuki. "Even if it becomes like this, can you still use other cards?"

"You say that as if I have my own cards... although I do now."

Jiang You still has several blank cards in his deck, just in case he needs them. It's a bit magical, Jiang You seems to be able to sense when a blank card will appear next, a bit like a premonition. I wonder how the development team achieved this. Have they achieved another breakthrough in stealth technology? "The cards you sent to the graveyard are two servants, so you've generated two [Undead Tokens]!"

[Undead Token] Attack 500*2. Great, there's still a chance! Bai Qiang glanced at the servants in the graveyard. They were two Knights of the Round Table. It just so happened that she also had cards that could utilize resources from the graveyard. Jiang You had paved the way for her actions.

"From your expression, you think you want to be specially summoned from the cemetery?"

Jiang You didn't throw the opponent's cards just to get a token that could be used as a sacrifice. "I'm sorry, they can't help you! I activate the continuous magic card [Chaos Dream]!"

A chaotic space descended, and the whispers that had come from Jiang You's spiritual base reappeared at this moment.

"By the way, this card's effect is to banish five attacking cards from both players' graveyards at the end of the turn, and then skip your turn."

Of course, this incredible effect must be told to the other party.

"!!!"

Bai Qiangdai quickly realized the danger of this card. After all, this was an environment where hand traps were extremely rare.

"That means you no longer have any turns to act!"

Jiang You's smile became more and more crazy. It was really addictive to not let the other party play Yu-Gi-Oh.

432

Chapter 432: Non-existent memories increased.

[Underworld] discards five cards per turn, and [Chaos Dream] banishes five cards at the end of the turn, skipping the turn. As long as there's no hand trap to block it, it can be said that the right to duel has been lost. Now Jiang You doesn't even need to play any cards. Just these two cards can make Bai Qiang watch his deck being banished.

Facing Jiang You now, not being able to take the initiative was tantamount to suicide. This was also the reason why Jiang You didn't want to go on his own, honestly it was a bit boring.

"It will be over soon. Before that, let's meet some new friends."

Jiang You originally wanted to find an opportunity to meet another member of his royal band, so he summoned him out.

"I Special Summon [Sukhnas (Elizabeth Bathory)]. This card can be High-Level Summoned by paying Life Points in place of a Tribute. For every 1000 Life Points paid, one Tribute can be served. And I will pay 3000 Life Points to perform this Summon!"

"3000 points!"

Bai Qiangdai smiled bitterly. It would make no difference as long as Jiang You didn't pay 4000 health points. She had no means to deal with it.

"Oh, are you mocking my incompetence? Don't be too complacent. This world won't give in to you easily. There will definitely be someone who can stop you!"

"You're so stubborn! Don't act like I'm planning some evil scheme."

The most Jiang You would do is make Kiritsugu wear a little skirt or something, which would not cause any harm to the world.

"Then how do you explain this?"

Bai Qiangdai pointed at the dark window. Such a scene would be impossible in the civilized era. The lights would cover the starry sky, and the city would never sleep.

"You're planning on destroying Fuyuki, right?"

"This was an accident. I will take good care of Nero."

Jiang You scratched his face. This was a Cthulhu-type passive, and there was nothing he could do about it. If Nero didn't activate her Noble Phantasm, she'd be as harmless as Abi (probably). If she hadn't gained the status of "God of Music" and wanted to show off, she wouldn't have ended up like this. And Jiang You's Spirit Base was so outrageous, his passive was actually affecting everything around him.

"By the way, I want to ask, what does Nero's singing sound like to you?"

“It’s hard to hear beyond a certain level.”

Bai Qiangdai spoke his honest assessment without reservation, "It's hard to imagine that's a sound a human could make, and now, it's even more impossible for a living thing to make."

"Oh no, it seems this spiritual base has indeed affected my music bacteria."

Jiang You muttered quietly. She had never had much appreciation for music to begin with, and now it had become a pica problem. She hoped it was just the player and the character hearing different sounds, or else there must be something wrong with her hearing.

"Forget it, let's solve the problem at hand first. Don't worry, it will be solved soon. Let's continue the duel!"

Jiang You chain-activated the effect of another card, "I activate the effect of [Chaos Dream]. When my health changes due to non-combat damage, I can choose who receives it. I will give this 3000 points of damage to you!"

"what!"

Bai Qiang Dai didn't really understand the concept of the environment, but paying someone 3000 health points to summon a powerful Servant was outrageous no matter how you looked at it. Even Tima couldn't be so shameless.

"Who are you!"

"I'm still Jiang You."

Jiang You slapped the card in his hand into the battle area, "Of course, now I also have another identity - Azathoth."
