What age is it, still in the traditional card making

Ye Qiong looked at the card in his palm.

In the center of the card is a distorted figure of Max, his body bulging into shape, his skin showing an unnatural purple-black color, as if corroded by some dark force. His eyes are empty, but there is a strange smile on the corner of his mouth.

The background is the royal garden of Glowing City. A purple-black ball of light is suspended in the sky, symbolizing the coming of "famine". The border of the card emits a dark purple light, giving people an uneasy feeling of oppression.

His eyes moved downwards and he saw the effect of the card.

[Card Name: Gluttony King - Max (Erosion State)]

[Rank: Golden Legend]

[Type: Ritual Monster Card]

[This card can only be Special Summoned by the Ritual Spell Card [Final Feast]]

[Introduction: An exiled gluttonous demon, he came to a remote country and became the king. Although the gluttonous demon has extraordinary potential, due to years of laziness, he has not developed his potential at all. By the time he realized this, he was already old and about to die. If he wanted to survive and get eternal life like a god, he could only choose to take an extreme path.]

[Effect 1: Infinite Appetite]

[When this monster is summoned, it can be activated. Select any card in your graveyard, hand, or deck and send it to the exclusion area. After that, the monster's combat power will increase according to the number of excluded cards. (Note: Hungry, still very hungry, I need more.))]

[Effect 2: Self-healing]

[This can be activated when the monster is about to be destroyed in battle and sent to the graveyard. By reducing a certain amount of combat power, it will be immune to this battle destruction. (Note: As long as I keep eating, I will never die.))]

[Effect 3: Summon: Seed of Famine]

[This effect can be activated when this monster is summoned by the Ritual Spell Card [Final Famine Feast], and a [Seed of Famine] can be placed in the Environment Spell Card Zone of your side (Seed of Famine: As long as this card is on the field, it can be activated at the start of each turn, and the Power of all monster cards on the field will be reduced to zero. If the monster cards on the field have already been reduced to zero, all will be sent to the Graveyard. If both sides have no monster cards on the field, the effect will be changed to discard all cards in both hands to the Graveyard. If both sides have no hand cards, the effect will be changed to send all decks of both sides to the Graveyard. When there are no monster cards on the field of both sides, and the number of cards in their hands and decks is zero, the life points of both duelists will be reduced to zero.) (Note: This power is exactly what I need))]

[Effect 4: Seven Plagues—Famine is Coming)]

[When both duelists' HP are reduced to zero, you can activate this skill to Special Summon the Fruit of Famine to the field. After that, you will continue the duel with [Max, the King of Gluttony] as the duelist. (Note: Do you know? Sometimes death does not mean the end. The game has just begun at this stage.)]

After seeing the results, Ye Qiong couldn't help but frowned.

This was the first time he had seen a card with this effect.

The first two effects should be the inherent ones of the Gluttonous Demon Clan, so they seem a bit mediocre.

What really made Ye Qiong feel uneasy were the following two effects. Obviously, these two effects were obtained after Max entered the erosion state.

The first is effect 3, which summons the Seed of Famine.

Ye Qiong had just experienced this effect. If nothing unexpected happened, it was referring to the purple-black ball of light floating directly above the Glowing City.

So the real name of that light ball is Seed of Famine? Its effect is quite similar to the effect described on the card. It will continuously absorb energy from the outside world.

What really puzzled and puzzled him was this passage:

“After that, we will continue the duel with Max, the King of Gluttony, as the duelist.”

Normally, when both duelists have reached zero, shouldn't the game end in a draw? Why do they continue the duel?

Ye Qiong imagined that when the effect of this card was completely activated, both duelists would be affected by the "Fruit of Famine", their health points would be reduced to zero, and then they would fall in the duel field.

A minute later, the duelist who had just fallen stood up again.

The "Gorgon King Max" who was originally in the monster area was resurrected as a duelist.

At this point his opponent has already fallen, so what does he need to do in order to continue the duel?

Thinking of this, Ye Qiong suddenly had an epiphany.

yes,

A duelist alone would not be enough to constitute a match. He must find an opponent.

If we put this effect on a realistic level, then the four surviving "duelists" are the opponents chosen by "Famine Fruit" for themselves.

No, to be more realistic, it should be "sacrifice".

The reason why Ye Qiong and the others are still alive and not affected by the seeds of famine is,

It was not simply because it wanted to play a trick on Ye Qiong and others, but because it still needed the final sacrifice.

After figuring this out, Ye Qiong immediately understood what they should do now.

first

"Kelly, look, my sword has come to life!"

Coincidentally, just as Ye Qiong had that thought, Valen's sword had already resurrected.

The Sword of Victory really lives up to its reputation, it found a way to win so quickly.

The moment Ye Qiong heard Valen's words, he decisively said to her:

"Unleash the power of the Sword of Dutrane now and destroy Max's body."

"Ah? So sudden?"

Although she was puzzled as to why Ye Qiong gave such an order, her body moved obediently.

She raised the sword with both hands and faced the direction of Max's body.

Soon, a layer of light appeared on the sword, and surging magic power flowed through the sword.

There must be a reason why the Sword of Dutran woke up at this time. As the sword wielder, she doesn't need to think too much. The formula for victory has already been written, and she just needs to copy it honestly.

After Ye Qiong ordered Valen to destroy Max's body, he immediately gave instructions to Aidas and Kelly:

"Use your strongest attack method to attack the ball of light in the sky."

Upon hearing this instruction, Kelly and Aidas were stunned for a moment, obviously not understanding why Ye Qiong suddenly wanted them to do this.

Although they were confused, they knew that this was not the time to delve into the reasons.

Aidas and Kelly both accumulated magic power at the same time, targeting the ball of light in the sky.

Why is Ye Qiong so sure that the ball of light can be destroyed?

The reason is simple.

In the card effect introduction, it is never mentioned that Seed of Famine has the effect of "not being destroyed by battle" or "not being destroyed by effects".

[Seeds of Famine] This card does not have any resistance.

The effects on the cards are basically the same as in reality.

In Ye Qiong's opinion, the ball of light was just a bluff. It had just landed in Glowing City and was not immune to destruction.

It is still very weak now. Once the health bar is reduced to zero, it will be really over.

This time, Aidas and Kelly put all their efforts into it. A lot of magic power was gathering on them.

at the same time,

Ye Qiong could feel it.

The [seeds of famine] in the sky are restless,

After realizing that the two guys below were planning to attack it, it seemed to become uneasy.

Ye Qiong's spiritual perception ability is quite strong. At this moment, he can clearly sense that

There were footsteps outside.

Logically speaking, the residents of Glowing City should have been absorbed by the [Seeds of Famine], so why are there footsteps at this time?

Soon, Ye Qiong saw that a large number of zombie-like demons appeared in the palace.

Their eyes were dull, and their pupils had lost their highlights. It seemed as if their minds were controlled by something.

In addition, Ye Qiong could clearly feel that

They are hungry and they crave to eat.

When their hunger for life reaches its limit, they will turn into beasts that devour everything.

This is the state of these demons before us.

This was also the scene that Ye Qiong was unable to see after the end of the last reincarnation.

After being illuminated by the obsidian light, he in the reincarnation copy may have died physically, but his body would still be controlled by "hunger", constantly devouring everything he could see.

The magic of Edas and Kelly has taken shape.

I saw several blue magic circles appearing in the air, and then a large amount of elemental power was gathering around them.

Just as they were about to lock onto the target and launch their concentrated magic,

The change happened at this time.

The magic power on the magic circle is disappearing.

No,

It's more like being eaten by someone than disappearing.

In addition, the elemental power that was converging towards the magic circle was also being gradually consumed.

After seeing this scene, Ye Qiong frowned unconsciously.

The magic and elemental power of Glowing City are gradually disappearing, this is something he just realized.

The Seeds of Famine seemed to be intended to strangle all of their ability to fight back, forcing them to quietly become the last sacrifice.

Without magic and elemental power, it means that they can no longer use magic to attack.

Ye Qiong looked at Valen who was standing aside.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the power of the Sword of Dutrane has not disappeared.

The sword of Dutlan in Valen's hand has been completely released. The sword no longer looks ordinary as before. Its blade is covered with golden light.

After a short period of charging,

Valen swung the sword in his hand heavily, and a golden beam of light poured out in the direction of Max's body.

It can be seen that Valen risked her life this time. She did not hold back at all in this attack. The only thing she wanted to do at this moment was to completely destroy the corpse in front of her.

In fact, she succeeded.

The destructive power of that light cannon was extremely terrifying. It directly opened a huge hole in the palace. The path of destruction continued to extend until it collapsed all the city gates.

After seeing such a spectacular scene, Ye Qiong was somewhat skeptical.

Asking Valen to release the power of the Sword of Dutrane to destroy a corpse is a bit like using a cannon to kill a mosquito? Shouldn't it be better to let Valen destroy the Seed of Destruction directly?

As soon as this thought came to his mind, Ye Qiong quickly shook his head to reject it.

"No, that's not right. According to the effect on the card, Max should be the most important. Without this container, it would be very difficult for it to grow into a complete form. So destroying Max's body is not a wrong choice."

After the smoke cleared,

Valen looked at the corpse that had turned to ashes, and said to Ye Qiong with great joy:

"Successful. My mission is now complete!"

Ye Qiong knew that Valen wanted to solve the problem of Glowing City and then find a place to hide.

But in fact, after destroying Max's body, the incident did not officially come to an end.

It’s better to say that this has just begun.

After Max's body was destroyed, a sharp sound suddenly came from the light ball in the sky, causing Ye Qiong and others to cover their ears unconsciously.

If you think this famine is a sign of anger, you are wrong.

Rather than being angry and humiliated because Max's body was destroyed, it was more like it was provoking Ye Qiong and others.

"It's useless. Even if you destroy the body, what does it matter? You still can't defeat me."

This kind of words doesn't sound very cool, and it doesn't fit the way a villain behind the scenes should behave.

But Ye Qiong and others all agreed that this was what it wanted to express.

The mentality of the Seeds of Famine gives people the feeling of being more like a child. Max had given them a similar feeling before.

After Kelly's spellcasting was interrupted, she asked Ye Qiong:

"What should we do now? We can't use magic now."

"If I transform into a dragon, I should be able to survive in the outside world for about a minute or two. During this time, I should be able to reach the light ball, provided that..."

“There was no disruption.”

Aidas grew dragon wings on his back, and then he spoke:

"I can also transform into a dragon and attack the light ball with you."

"Then Valen and I only need to assist you and not be disturbed by other attacks from the light ball. Is that right?"

When he said this, the light ball made a harsh sound again, as if to tell them that he could hear your conversation. (End of this chapter)
