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

　The [Light-Marked Swordsman] reacted noticeably a second too late. It only had time to draw its sword and parry.

　The dragon claw collided with the sword, but did not trigger the "mark," and instead sent the "Light Mark Swordsman" flying.

　The difference in power between the two magical spirits became apparent at this moment. After repelling the "Light-Marked Swordsman," the "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" continued its rapid advance, unleashing its second claw before the "Light-Marked Swordsman" could regain his footing. This claw struck from below, breaking through the block and sending the "Light-Marked Swordsman" flying into the air.

　The Blue-Eyes White Dragon suddenly raised its head, countless white lights gathering in its mouth. Its ultimate attack—"Explosive Gale Bullet of Annihilation!"

　But as the light converged and its power erupted, the "Light-Marked Swordsman" vanished once again!

　The Blue-Eyes White Dragon's ultimate attack was already poised to strike and could not be retracted. In that instant, it suddenly turned its head to look at the three giant gift boxes in the opposite arena and spat out a mouthful of white light at the gift box in the center.

　A massive orb of light, radiating an aura of destruction, slammed across the entire area and struck the gift box, instantly turning it into dust.

　But the game was not over.

　Lance Gascoyle was not among them.

　In fact, the person and the magical spirit inside the gift box can be freely interchanged.

　Unlike typical special moves, which are randomly assigned, the "Annihilation Burst Gale Bullet" only shattered the "Nun of Light."

　However, after the "Nun of Light" was sent to the graveyard, her ultimate move "Holy Light Inspiration" was triggered.

　A white beam of light descended from the sky, and the "Nun of Light" was resurrected within it, floating in the air.

　After her resurrection, the "Nun of Light" radiated light, with a halo above her head, making her look like an angel.

　In this state, it cannot be selected and is essentially invincible.

　However, it is also unable to move, and cannot use any of its special moves. This state lasts for three rounds.

　After three rounds, the "Nun of Light" will die again.

　In legends, the "Nun of Light" would use these three rounds to give the protagonist verbal guidance, and then completely kill him.

　—That's the type of character.

　In magical duels, its sole purpose is to serve as a sacrifice. Lancegascor's current deck consists of 3-star, 9-star, and 12-star Magical Spirit cards.

　All of his three-star magical spirit cards are highly distinctive, filled with various methods for quickly summoning nine-star and twelve-star magical spirits.

　The "Clown of Light" is a character with four special moves. Those four special moves are "Magic Box," "Overcoming Obstacles," and...

　[Disappearing into thin air] and "Clown's Flying Knife".

　[Overcoming Obstacles] is the very first teleportation technique.

　"Disappearing into thin air" is the ultimate technique that makes the "Light-Marked Swordsman" disappear.

　Both of these ultimate skills are escape-type abilities and can be used on friendly targets.

　The "disappearance" is a combination of teleportation and invisibility! However, the teleportation ability of "disappearance" is only one to two meters, which is far less than "crossing obstacles".

　However, when combined with invisibility, it can make the magical spirit disappear instantly from the enemy's sight.

　The "Light-Marked Swordsman" was also extremely fast.

　After teleporting to the ground, he immediately moved to the side in stealth mode to avoid subsequent attacks.

　After seeing the Blue-Eyes White Dragon unleash its special attack, it changed direction and charged forward again.

　But a moment later, the figure of the "Light-Marked Swordsman" was captured again.

　Dark opened his "Eye of Truth," instantly locking onto its location. The "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" simultaneously flapped its wings, flying towards the "Swordsman of the Mark of Light."

　While assisting with positioning, Dark gathered mental and blissful power to guide the evolution of "Lunamon".

　—"Bond Evolution" isn't something that can be achieved simply by saying "evolve." It requires highly focused attention and a mind almost synchronized with the magical spirit. Due to interference from the "Light-Marked Swordsman," Dark only now has the opportunity to allow "Lunamon" to evolve.

　The "Moon God Beast" pricked up its ears, hugged its head, closed its eyes, and strained. Only when the light gathered did it begin to evolve in the bright, moon-like glow.

　This scene was naturally captured clearly by Lance Gascoyle.

　Lance Gascoyle's expression was quite calm.

　He wasn't significantly disturbed by Dark and continued summoning after summoning "The Clown of Light." Although the summoning was interrupted by the coordinate shift of "Magic Box," he had already summoned and activated his third magic card.

　—"Arsenal of Light"!

　Although it is called "Arsenal", what is summoned by this magic card is just a weapon box the size of a person.

　However, by reaching into the weapon case, one can retrieve all sorts of weapons. But only humans can use the "Arsenal of Light."

　Because Lance is a pure human, he can naturally use the "Arsenal of Light".

　He simply reached out and took a warhammer from the "Arsenal of Light".

　Then, he slammed the warhammer into the ground.

　With a loud bang, white light emanated from the warhammer, surging across the entire arena like a tidal wave.

　That warhammer is called the "Holy Soul Warhammer of Light". Its special attack is called "Holy Soul Elegy".

　When the light filled the area, human souls gathered and sang hymns to the area.

　Holy spirits cannot be dispelled by conventional spells.

　Hymns can greatly weaken the power of dark and demonic beings, and cause them additional effects such as "headache" and "dizziness".

　This additional effect, which is purely mental, has no effect on normal magical spirits.

　In magical duels, the attack is normally limited to the mage himself. However, Darkdemon's magical spirits all possess "spirit." Lance was clearly well aware of this.

　After seeing Dark summon the "Moon God Beast" that exudes dark power, he knew that Dark was not using a pure "White Dragon" deck.

　His preparations for dealing with the Dark Demon species before the match were not in vain.

Chapter 1558 The Wall of Divine Protection, Forbidden for Non-Humans (4k)

　“As expected!”

　After releasing "Holy Soul Elegy", Lance Gascoyle immediately reached into the "Arsenal of Light" again.

　As an "arsenal," it's impossible for it to contain only one weapon. In fact, the "Arsenal of Light" contains a total of eighteen different weapons, and mages can choose any three to use.

　As his right hand entered the gate of light, the light on the gate began to flicker and change continuously.

　Without hesitation, he took out the next weapon from it—the "Holy Crossbow of Light"!

　The "Holy Crossbow of Light" is about one meter long, with a silvery-white surface that gleams with a silvery light. It has three crossbow bolts attached to it and exudes a sacred aura.

　Lance Gascoyle, hidden inside the enormous gift box, immediately set up his Holy Crossbow and aimed it at Dark.

　His sacred crossbow has a range of over 100 meters, each bolt has an attack power of 1,000 points, and is equipped with penetrating properties.

　The three arrows fired simultaneously could instantly kill any first-tier magical spirit. But he took out this "Holy Crossbow of Light" not to attack the magical spirit, but to target the mage himself!

　The mage's life shield offers no protection; if these three arrows hit, they will deal three thousand points of damage.

　But to hit Dark, he needed to find the perfect opportunity. Because Dark Dimon was already a top-tier martial artist who had opened seven chakras.

　"Di!"

　Once again.

　The Duel Disk automatically draws cards.

　The projections of two newly acquired magic cards flashed across the corner of his vision. But in that instant, Lance had already memorized them.

　The second round begins!

　within the venue.

　The Blue-Eyes White Dragon successfully intercepted the Swordsman of Light's Mark. The Lunamon had also completed its evolution. Standing before Dark Dimon now was the [Crescent Beast], whose female characteristics were extremely prominent.

　"Crescent Beast" is also known as (Martial Rabbit Divine Beast).

　Its appearance is more like a rabbit than the "Moon God Beast". It has pink and tender skin, a curvaceous figure, wears a blue tight-fitting latex suit, and is covered with silver-white armor. It is a nine-star magic spirit with dark and water elements.

　Although the moonlit night is the "Crescent Beast's" domain, it can still unleash extremely powerful strength even during the day.

　But as soon as it completed its evolution, "hymns" were poured into its ears, causing it headaches, dizziness, and extreme discomfort.

　It subconsciously raised its hand and pressed it near the Sun Six, its gaze suddenly glaring at the "Holy Souls" floating in the air, its already red eyes suddenly burning as if on fire.

　Dark was in sync with its mind and immediately felt the same way. But the "headache" he felt was very mild and disappeared immediately after the connection was severed.

　However, this is very crucial.

　He immediately understood the effect of "Holy Soul Elegy," realizing that Lance had indeed adjusted his deck to target him.

　But that's normal.

　He can gather information on his opponents to target them, and his opponents can also gather information on him to target them.

　Among the magic cards he used in this competition, most of the stronger ones were of the dark attribute.

　His "White Dragon" deck also has obvious flaws.

　Lance Gascoyle would definitely think that the Blue-Eyes White Dragon is not a threat, and then target Dark and Demon types specifically.

　Dac had anticipated this.

　What I didn't expect was that Lance had also targeted the intelligence of the magical spirits. But if he thought that this would be enough to subdue his magical spirits, he would be seriously underestimating the bond between them!

　"Crescent Beast, Dance of Enchantment!"

　Dark's mind focused instantly, and his bond with the "Crescent Beast" was reconnected.

　In that instant, their hearts were in sync.

　While transmitting his mental power, Dark also shared the pain and dizziness of the "Crescent Beast".

　The Crescent Beast immediately felt its headache greatly relieved, and with a slight push of its feet, it leaped into the air.

　The next second, it started dancing the "bewitching dance"!

　"In the name of Dark Dimon, Spell Summon - Blue-Eyes Dragon Egg!" Dark Dimon glanced at the two new magic cards he had just acquired and immediately summoned the dragon egg.

　The Crescent Beast's dance makes the moonlight appear, creating a beautiful and stunning effect.

　Dark was certain that the "Light-Marked Swordsman" was male and would inevitably be drawn to this "Enchanting Dance".

　as predicted!

　After the "Light-Marked Swordsman" stabbed the "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" while in stealth mode, he was immediately drawn to the "Crescent Beast".

　Its movements froze for a moment, its eyes fixed on the "Crescent Beast".

　Although a mark of light shone on the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's body, it was merely an "increased damage" effect and not very useful.

　Seeing that the "Light-Marked Swordsman" had stopped moving, it swung its sword without hesitation, sending the sword flying once again.

　Then it suddenly tilted its head back, gathered white light again, and released a "destructive jet of white light"!

　"Roar--"

　This time, the "Light-Marked Swordsman" had nowhere to escape and was instantly struck by the white light.

　However, it quickly regained its senses after enduring this combination of attacks. Its defense was not weak, but after taking a direct hit from the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's two claw attacks and a breath attack, it was still left with very low health.

　With a flap of its wings, the Blue-Eyes White Dragon pounced and swung its claws, finally sending the creature to its grave!

　But just as the Blue-Eyes White Dragon was finishing off the Light-Marked Swordsman, three silver crossbow bolts shot out instantly! The three bolts were extremely fast, appearing to the naked eye as three streaks of silver light flashing by.

　In a split second, it struck the Crescent Beast! "Bang bang bang!"

　All three crossbow bolts pierced the Crescent Shield.

　In that instant, the Crescent Beast raised its shield and caught the three crossbow bolts with an incredible reaction speed!

　Its base defense is 3800 points, plus 500 points of shield defense, which makes a total of 4300 points.

　Even if the crossbow bolt could penetrate fifty percent of the defense, it could not pierce through this crescent-shaped silver shield.

　The Crescent Beast landed on its toes and, without Dark's command, pounced at the giant gift box from which the crossbow bolt had been fired.

　And inside the gift box.

　Lance Gascoyle's expression, however, was quite unpleasant.

　Its "Holy Crossbow of Light" was originally aimed at Dark. But it was momentarily attracted when the "Crescent Beast" performed its "Dance of Enchantment," causing the crossbow bolt to deflect and the bolt to be released instinctively, resulting in it being fired at the "Crescent Beast."

　This holy crossbow, capable of taking away three thousand points of health, was destroyed on the spot.

　But the situation on the field took a sharp turn for the worse, leaving him no time to leisurely aim.
