Chapter 115 The Truth
【Shell, LP 0】

The health value returned to zero, and the duel ceremony ended. Olihagang's barrier began to swirl and shrink, slowly closing in towards Shell's location.

But at the same time, a powerful force burst out from his deck.

The flames of the Phoenix transformed into a phoenix in midair. The flames swept across the entire arena, and the dazzling light enveloped the three people in the duel.

After a burst of bright light that blinded people, a picture appeared.

It looked like a distant ancient battlefield, and the world was in endless mourning. The sky was like a broken scroll being torn apart, revealing a shocking crack.

In that crack, a terrifying evil god seemed to be living. His deep and cold eyes seemed to devour all living things.

The demon army surged onto the battlefield like a tide, their figures looked extremely ferocious in the afterglow of the setting sun. Some had horns and wore armor, some spread their wings and flew in the air, and some were blood-red and ferocious demons, their roars shaking the earth.

A brutal war broke out on the land, and flames engulfed everything. A burning phoenix fell in midair, its feathers gleaming brightly in the flames, and its cries echoed across the battlefield for a long time.

"Is this... an image from the past?" Judai murmured.

Although it was just a guess, they all seemed to understand what it meant.

The evil god's forces invaded the world of elves, and a fierce war broke out in a dimension unknown to humans. The fallen phoenix might be Nephthys' phoenix god.

This video may be the Phoenix God saying, it's not that I didn't want to help you, I was just a simple vegetable, I sent it long ago.
The fallen phoenix dissipated, and the flames it released were absorbed into a stone slab.

It seemed that the Phoenix Spirit had entered a sealed state since the battle. The reason why they could pass this on to everyone now was because of the remnant of Phoenix Power that they had just absorbed from the statue at the tribal ruins.

Then the scene changed and we came from the elf world to reality.

It is an ancient village surrounded by mountains.

The warm sunlight was suddenly obscured by thick dark clouds, and monsters came from all directions like a tide. The figures of various monsters were looming in the dark forests, and the village was turned into ruins under the trampling of monsters.

Behind all the monsters, under the dark sky, a dark giant was watching all this with a grim smile. On the forehead of the dark shadow was reflected the hexagram mark of Olihagang.

"How could this be?" Shell muttered in disbelief.

Suddenly he understood.

No, or rather, he should have thought of the many suspicious points when his village was invaded. But up to now, his mind has been under the influence of Olihagang, and he has been deliberately guided to ignore these points, and he can't think in this direction at all.

Now that he had lost the duel and his soul was about to dissipate, Olihagang's connection was finally cut off. The Phoenix God was able to find a gap and convey the truth to him.

From the very beginning, the evil demons that invaded his home were summoned by the God of Olihagang.

They staged this invasion themselves, and then appeared as a savior in a time of despair, providing Sher with an opportunity to gain power, so that he would willingly sell his soul and work for New Doma.

You Xuan was not surprised at all. In fact, he had guessed it a little bit.

Because this is an old trick that Old Doma also likes to use.

The three musketeers of old Doma were recruited in a similar way. With his power of foreseeing fate, Dazi saw the potential of Baron, Rafiru, and Ameruda, and decided that they were destined to become the three musketeers of Doma.

So Dazi manually created the tragedy of these three people's childhood, planted the seeds of darkness in their hearts, and then guided them step by step to voluntarily join Doma in pursuit of power, and became the three strongest musketeers under his command.

Old trick, nothing new.

After another burst of bright light, the image disappeared, and the Phoenix God's illusory body gradually dissipated. It seemed that the little bit of power it had was burned out.

At the same time, Olihagang's barrier had shrunk to the point where it was almost sticking to Shell.

"Am I wrong?" He closed his eyes gently and sighed.

"Shel!" Judai tried to reach out to him.

Shell took one last look at Judai and smiled.

"You are in good company," he said. "I hope your future will be different from mine."

After saying that, the soul left the body, mixed in the green light column and soared into the sky, disappearing into the sky. This might be the first time that Judai saw with his own eyes the appearance of a person who lost in a duel and lost his soul.

It seemed to have had quite a big impact on his young mind.

Judai's expression was a bit complicated for a moment. But Youxuan was as calm as usual, he just walked forward calmly, leaned over and pulled out the deck.

"There's nothing else we can do." You Xuan inserted the deck into the empty card box in his arms and said solemnly, "We can only inherit his legacy and move on."

Inherited along with his deck.

Judai was silent for a moment.

".Um."

"Okay, it should be dawn at the academy now. Let's go back."

"."

This time I only stayed in the Elf Realm for an entire night, but I gained quite a lot. A bone deck, an insect deck, and the Phoenix God and the King of the End.
However, the latter two are not so much a deck as they are just a few cards in total. Strictly speaking, Sher's deck is also a bit of a mess, mixing together several unrelated axes and then adding a bunch of even more unrelated magic traps.

Well, it is definitely proof of being strong.

In fact, You Xuan now has the blessing of the elves, and has practiced in the academy for so long, so he is no longer a complete layman in the divine draw. Now even he can be a little bolder when building a deck, but even in his own eyes, boldness is at most to put in a few more unpopular cards with unknown meanings to increase the upper limit.

Every time I see this kind of pure Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea-style construction by a master, I can't help but be amazed.

The remaining power in the Phoenix God's card seemed to have been released just now. Although it can be used, it has turned back into an ordinary card. But after watching the images that Phoenix God showed just now, when I get this card now, I suddenly feel like I have picked up a hidden prop in an RPG game to trigger a branch.
It's hard to say about the King of the End. Although "King of the End·Demis" now looks like it has returned to normal in You Xuan's hand, and there is no sign of a spirit inhabiting it, but from the duel just now, it can be seen that this card seems to be not simple.

You Xuan decided to be cautious and not use this card with unknown background for the time being. He would go back and study and test it first.

Some cards in the world of Yu-Gi-Oh are very dangerous. Some evil cards require a price to be paid to control, and may even backfire on the duelist. This "King of the End, Demis" looks like one of these cards.

You Xuan summoned the Great Opening and split the space with one sword.

The moment before stepping into the crack, Judai suddenly stopped.

You Xuan turned his head to look: "What's going on?"

"Oh nothing, just"

Judai seemed to be thinking about something, and he was silent for a few seconds.

Then he raised his head and returned to his usual sunny and cheerful smile.

"Although I still can't understand a lot of things that guy said for a while. But I suddenly feel that it's really great to come to the Duel Academy and meet a guy like You Xuanni."

You Xuan smiled slightly.

"Yeah, I think so too."

He turned around.

"Let's go, don't keep them waiting too long."

Judai: “Okay~”

The two of them stepped into it, and after a while of feeling dizzy like when they came here, they soon fell back to the ground in a daze.

It was exactly where they left, in the abandoned dormitory of Duel Academy, in the room engraved with ancient characters and symbols of thousand-year-old artifacts.

But after a smooth landing, the first person I saw when I opened my eyes was a bit surprising.

It's Keipi Kaiba.

Keipi turned his head and saw the two people landing, and his eyes lit up: "Ah, you are back?"
