The villainous young master just wants to live a Buddhist-like life.

　However, just as Whitney regained her confidence, Ergany gained another "Pink Witch" by her side.

　A finishing move like "Snake Transformation" is generally impossible to use a second time in a single duel.

　But what if there are two "Pink Witches"?

　Whitney's expression immediately turned ugly.

　Her "King of the Yellow Sands" has no resistance to transformation-type special moves.

　Even the "Son of the Desert" was turned into a snake, so how could the "King of the Yellow Sands" escape?

　Without those two nine-star magical spirits, she became a target that could be aimed at at will.

　"No, it's not over yet!"

　Whitney suddenly reached for the duel disk with her right hand.

　The countdown for the turn switch is about to reach zero, and she can draw two more magic cards.

　"I place all my bets here, great lord of the yellow sands, god of the desert, please guide me!"

　Whitney focused her mind in prayer, and suddenly a divine light emanated from her body, exuding a divine aura.

　"Divinity." In the players' lounge.

　Dark frowned and said in a low voice, "Whitney was indeed a messenger of God."

　Her deck must contain a "God Card".

　"The duelist who possesses the 'God Card' could have gone much further in this World Cup; it's a real shame."

　That faint sense of regret did not reach the stage.

　The audience in the stadium stared at the "King of the Sands" moving slowly forward like a chariot, and the "Son of the Desert" who had been turned into a small snake. Some cheered, some applauded, and the noise was deafening.

　Those viewers who had been paying close attention to the duel felt a slight unease, but couldn't quite put their finger on what it was.

　A slender, blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl, a mere three-star magical elf. In any other context, she would be considered a novice duelist.

　However, the one facing her head-on at this moment was a true powerhouse who had just started with a nine-star attack.

　And that's not all.

　When the turn switched again and Whitney acquired a new magic card, a divine and imposing aura suddenly erupted from her hand.

　Whitney narrowed her eyes, drew the magical card that radiated divine light from the top of the deck, and immediately summoned it!

　The summoning of "God Cards" is mostly unconventional. Some require special rituals to summon.

　Some require special offerings to summon.

　Some require certain conditions to be met before they can be summoned.

　However, some cards don't require anything, not even ordinary tributes, and can be summoned directly. Whitney's "God Card" is not such a convenient card; its summoning requires two specific conditions.

　Firstly, there must be "people of the gods," that is, "believers in the desert god."

　This condition was already met the moment Whitney stood there, so it was essentially meaningless.

　Secondly, there must be a suitable "body," that is, a "vessel for the desert god to possess."

　The quality of the vessel that possesses the card determines the upper limit of the "God Card's" power. Whitney currently only has two nine-star magical spirits on her field. She has no choice but to use one of the nine-star magical spirits as the vessel for summoning the god.

　The "God Cards" summoned in this way only have twelve stars. But that should be enough.

　Whitney composed herself and issued her final command to the "King of the Sands".

　At that moment, the previously sluggish "King of the Sands" suddenly increased its speed. Although still not as agile as the high-sensitivity magic elf, it had reached a similar level.

　Before summoning the "Card of God," she had to lure Ergani into unleashing her second "Snake Transformation"! She succeeded!

　The "Pink Witch" that Ergani had just summoned unleashed "Snake Transformation" on the "King of the Sands"!

　The enormous "King of the Yellow Sands" transformed in the blink of an eye into a small yellow snake wriggling on the ground.

　Without any hesitation, Whitney offered the "King of the Sands" as a sacrifice to begin summoning the "Card of God".

　At the same time, she activated the preset "Mystic Card" - "The Lone Desert Traveler".

　It is pronounced "gu gao" and translated as "lonely".

　This is a magic card that can only be activated if all magical spirits on the field are rendered powerless.

　A lone, helpless desert traveler will witness divine revelation. In an instant.

　A dim, yellowish halo spread out.

　A screen of light appeared before Whitney. A dim, yellowish glow swirled within the screen.

　A white light, resembling a human figure, descended from above, illuminating the dim world and bringing divine mercy.

　Bathed in this divine light, Whitney felt her energy and spirit fully restored, even her confused state of mind cleared up, and she reached her peak condition.

　But when she glanced at the "Son of the Desert," she found that the little snake had not changed at all.

　This secret ritual was supposed to heal and purify all abnormal states; the opponent had indeed used an unknown technique of hers.

　Whitney quickly gathered her thoughts.

　While the light barrier was still intact and could block frontal attacks, she unleashed her summoning.

　The divinity overflowing from her "God Card" was so obvious that she believed it would almost certainly be discovered.

　But Ergane did not interrupt. Whitney's eyelid twitched suddenly.

　She discovered that Ergane now had another "Pink Witch" by her side.

　The three pink, fat snakes wearing pointed hats lined up in front of Ergani, looking like three cute little toys.

　"impossible!"

　Whitney shook her head violently, forcefully banishing the thought that had surfaced in her mind. Then, she successfully completed the summoning.

　A brilliant golden light descended from the sky and shone upon the "King of the Yellow Sands," who had transformed into a small snake.

　The King of the Sands vanished in a burst of golden light. A new body appeared before Whitney.

　That was a magical spirit that inherited part of the appearance of the "King of the Yellow Sands," still resembling a giant sand scorpion... or even abandoned its upper human body, leaving only the sand scorpion part!

　The "god" was a pure sand scorpion, wielding a huge claw, its whole body covered in golden light, as dazzling as gold.

　But it will eventually be fully realized.

　The golden sand scorpion suddenly stood upright, its body structure changing, transforming into a "sand scorpion insect-man" somewhat similar to Whitney.

　However, this insectoid still wore a golden carapace, had a huge tail hook, and retained two huge stingers on its shoulders.

　It stands upright, over eight meters tall, and its divine aura perfectly embodies its status as a "god".

　This "God Card" is called "God of the Desert"!

　"Great Lord of the Yellow Sands, God of the Desert, grant your faithful followers invincibility in a hundred battles..."

　Whitney cupped her heart in her hands and offered a prayer.

　She believed that the "God of the Desert" would bring her victory and annihilate all unknown enemies.

　The colossal "God of the Desert" lowered his head, looking down at the ants on the ground, his eyes swirling with a golden sea, revealing only divinity and no humanity.

　Responding to the prayers of the desert people, it raised its two giant stingers on its back, as if raising its hands high, to summon the sandstorm to gather.

　In an instant, the world changed dramatically. The dim night sky was painted with a touch of yellow.

　Countless grains of yellow sand appeared out of thin air, swirling and dancing around the god of the desert. All the light gathered above the two giant claws, as if trying to condense into a gigantic moon.

　But when countless eyes, both inside and outside the arena, were focused on that "moon"

　The pink, fat snake witch raised her wand.

　"Pfft."

　The moon disc shattered, the yellow sand ceased, and the divine figure vanished.

　Another small snake has appeared on the dueling platform.

　"How is that possible!"

　Watching the small snake crawling on the ground, Whitney screamed. At that moment, it seemed as if she could hear the sound of shattering glass echoing in her mind and soul.

　The actions that should have been taken at this moment were rendered ineffective due to overwhelming shock.

　She frantically called out to the "God of the Desert" in her heart. But after a long time, she still did not hear a response from the "God of the Desert".

　Whitney suddenly realized that perhaps it wasn't that the "God of the Desert" had lost the ability to respond, but rather that he was unwilling to respond.

　The god she encountered in the underground temple of the Yellow Wind Desert was supposed to be extremely talkative. From the moment they met, he seemed to have endless things to say, pestering her with questions, as if trying to make up for the long years of slumber. Although Chi could only open his eyes for half an hour out of twenty-four, Whitney would always do her best to collect all sorts of interesting stories and items to keep the desert god entertained for those fulfilling half hours.

　And the desert god will reward her accordingly. For example, after her resurrection, he will take her as his servant and grant her abilities comparable to those of an angel.

　For example, she was granted divine power to establish a huge oasis in the Yellow Wind Desert.

　He always boasted about his divine power, talking about how powerful he was and how he had once built a vast divine kingdom.

　Looking back now, it all seems like a complete lie.

　Whitney felt her trust in the Desert God was crumbling. "Why, in the end, could the 'God Card' be turned into a snake by a three-star magical spirit?!"

　On April 15th, the first round of the first day of the World Cup qualifiers officially concluded shortly afterward.

　In that final duel, even the "god" summoned using the "God Card" was turned into a small snake that could not attack. Whitney from the Yellow Wind Desert was completely defeated and never recovered.

　Although her "God Card" returned to normal after only ten seconds, Whitney, who had completely lost her will to fight, couldn't last even half a round. Her life shield was shattered by the three-star magical spirit summoned by Ergan. The commentators remarked that if Whitney had believed in her "God Card," she might have had a chance of winning.

　But what they didn't know was that it wasn't Whitney who lost her will to fight first, but the "Goddess of the Desert".

　However, these truths held no special significance for the commentators and viewers, and naturally, no one stepped forward to explain them. It was simply that after this duel, people's awe of the "God Cards" suddenly diminished considerably.

　Both inside and outside the arena, countless people were discussing the duel. "What exactly happened?"

　"Can the God Card be defeated with a three-star Magical Spirit?" "So the God Card isn't a god?"

　"Of course a god can't be a god. How could a god be turned into a snake by a three-star magical spirit!"

　Such comments quickly spread.

　Disagreements arising from differing opinions are a natural occurrence, with debates occurring in various places for a variety of reasons.

　But the one thing that is undisputed is Ergan's power!

　He was able to defeat the powerful "God Card" holder in the preliminaries using only a few three-star magical spirits.

　Even if there's a problem with the opponent's "God Card," it doesn't change the fact that Ergane is incredibly powerful.

　"The students of St. Marian Academy are terrifying!"

　People's awe of St. Mary's College has only deepened.

　Ergani herself left an extremely deep impression on the hearts of people all over the continent at this moment.

　This is naturally very beneficial to her development.

　But such self-exposure, which can attract people's faith, can naturally also attract the attention of pests.

　"Investigate! Investigate! Investigate!"

　"Your intelligence department is full of scumbags!" "Get the hell back here and investigate!"

　Ergani didn't just appear out of thin air; she was a "student" who had been at St. Marian Academy for quite some time.

　Once this fact is discovered, leaders of various countries will inevitably lash out at the intelligence organizations, and the pressure will then be transferred to the individual intelligence officers.

　after all.

　Ordinary people might be completely confused.

　But beings like popes, kings, and sages could not possibly be unable to comprehend that fact.

　Only a god can turn a god into a small animal!

　Even if Ergan is not a god, she must be a demigod. Such a being has appeared so unremarkably on the World Cup stage.

　What's going on!

　“Caleb.” Pope Sith’s expression was very unpleasant.
