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

　However, as if he had eyes in the back of his head, Lance suddenly swept his warhammer backward, knocking the "Dark Arrow" away!

　His own combat ability is incredibly strong!

　Dark instantly recalled the moment when he went to the meeting alone to test the "Lich" Slok.

　In addition to his extremely strong combat power, Lance must also possess special sensory abilities.

　He is a pillar of the Holy Church and one of the most promising future leaders.

　They are certainly not to be underestimated.

　"In that case, Crescent Beast—'Dance of Madness'!" Dark gave the order directly.

　With a flick of its wrists, the Crescent Beast disassembled the Crescent Crossbow into a shield and a blade.

　Immediately after it began its dance, it suddenly accelerated, its eyes turning crimson.

　[Dance of Madness] is also a finishing move that can plunge an opponent into a state of confusion. The headache and dizziness caused by the hymn still affect "Crescent Beast". But when "Dance of Madness" is activated, that pain and dizziness are immediately overwhelmed by the madness.

　The [Crescent Beast]'s power had actually reached its peak. It attacked Lance with incredible speed, like a phantom. Meanwhile, Dark had already taken to the sky aboard the "Blue-Eyes White Dragon." Even with Lance's formidable strength, he couldn't ascend without magical means. "Bang!"

　Lance swung his warhammer and smashed it down on the "Blue-Eyes Young Dragon," instantly killing the six-star magical spirit! But moments later, the "Crescent Beast" charged in.

　Lance stuck one of the magic cards onto himself, and an armor of light immediately unfolded and covered him.

　That's the "Armor of Light" weapon card, which can cover the wearer's entire body and increase their overall strength and defense.

　Armor cards continuously drain mana. Although they can be used on magical spirits, "King of Light" already has armor, so using them on "Divine Angel" is pointless.

　Using it on yourself at this time is the most appropriate choice.

　But could a mere suit of armor truly elevate Lance's power to the point where he could contend with the "Crescent Beast"?

　The answer is no!

　The "Armor of Light" didn't even last him a moment longer before he was knocked away by the "Crescent Beast".

　His 8,000 health points were reduced to zero in a single blow, instantly breaking through his defenses! However, the match was not over.

　It's like a "divine angel" who is clearly on the verge of death but hasn't actually died.

　Lance's health was simply not enough to withstand the full force of the Crescent Beast's "Dance of Madness".

　But he didn't leave. Dark suddenly looked at the projection display and saw that the original "8000" health points had become [1].

　"Locking blood"

　While not common in magic duels, the "lock-in" tactic is a classic case that frequently appears in textbooks.

　Furthermore, many of Dark's magical spirits also possess the ability to lock in health.

　However, that was a magical spirit, not the mage himself. And certainly not...

　Is it...

　Lance has developed a technology that can lock the life points of a "Life Card".

　The thought flashed through Dark's mind for a moment. Then he immediately thought of something else.

　If this method were to emerge and become widespread, then this feature of the "Life Card" would render magical duels meaningless.

　If Dulles's technique of creating a field effect in the duel arena was a positive innovation for magical duels, then Lance's technique of locking the life points of life cards was the destruction of magical duels.

　Of course, this only applies to magical duels under the current rules.

　Although the design and concept of the "Life Card" were not mature enough, it was still unexpected that such a fatal flaw could be found in such a short time.

　He quickly chanted the command, directing the "Crescent Beast" to give chase.

　With a swift movement, the "Crescent Beast" appeared beside Lance.

　Lance swung his warhammer to block, but was sent flying by the Crescent Beast's scythe. A whirlwind kick followed, striking directly at the chin without mercy.

　"boom!"

　Lance was kicked away again, and the jaw of his Light Armor shattered, blood trickling out.

　This means that Lance was not unharmed. However, his "health points" are still 1.

　This phenomenon immediately attracted the attention of many contestants. Principal Arte frowned and fell into deep thought.

　Lance used the "Holy Monument of Light" to connect his own fate with that of the magical spirits, turning them into a community of shared destiny.

　However, "Holy Monument of Light" was originally a finishing move that only worked on magical spirits. But Lance had used a "Life Card" on himself.

　The "Life Card" is a special type of magic card that evolved from the Armor Card. It merges with the mage himself, becoming both armor and the mage. Lance exploited this loophole, merging himself with the "Life Card" to become a "human-type magic spirit," thus becoming a target of the "Holy Monument of Light."

　However, in this process, the only thing truly connected with the other magical spirits is the "Life Card's" life value.

　This is because the "Life Card" is actually the "Magic Spirit". The same applies to other special moves like these.

　Just like the resurrection-type special moves in Magic Cards, they can only be used on Magic Spirits.

　Under these circumstances, Lance's "health points" were successfully locked. Until the other magical spirits were killed, his "health points" would be permanently locked at 1 point.

　However, it will not fall into a "near-death state" due to the "health points" being locked.

　He was still able to maintain full strength and participate in the battle.

　Of course, once the "health points" are locked, he himself will continue to suffer damage.

　Therefore, the only two ways to defeat him in this duel are surrender and surrender.

　The first step is to kill all the magical spirits that are connected as a community of shared destiny.

　Second, kill Lance!

　……

　Furthermore, the twelve-star magical spirit "King of Light" summoned by Lance is truly incredibly resilient. Without a powerful attacker like "Thundercloud," it would be impossible to kill.

　This turned his combo into an incredibly shameless move. He charged at Dark single-handedly, intending to attack if Dark wasn't careful enough and relaxed his guard after summoning the magic spirit to reduce his life points to 1.

　Even if Dark doesn't fall for it, he can still buy time to draw more magic cards.

　And in this respect, he did succeed.

　After all, a round of time had long passed.

　Once again.

　Two new magic cards flashed before my eyes.

　A shadow of gloom flashed across Lance's face, hidden beneath the tattered mask. Another twelve-star magical spirit card acquired!

　He used the "Holy Monument of Light" to preserve the "Divine Angel" and the "Clown of Light," and these two magical spirits could then be sacrificed as offerings.

　However, while the "Clown of Light" retains some magic due to being ignored, the "Divine Angel's" magic has been reduced to only 1.

　If these two magical spirits are used for a sacrificial summoning, the failure rate is 50%!

　So, to gamble or not to gamble?

　Another answer with only one result.

　bet!

　Lance gritted his teeth, enduring the pain of his shattered jaw, and focused on silently reciting the sacrificial summoning incantation.

　While in mid-air, the other person deliberately spun around to conceal their actions, successfully squeezing out three seconds. Three seconds of sacrificial summoning.

　This is his last parva!

　The "Clown of Light" and the "Divine Angel" instantly turned into light.

　The "King of Light" in the sky finally caught the gap when the paralysis disappeared and used his ultimate move, "Heroic Light Wave," as he had planned!

　It forcibly twisted its body in mid-air, its hands forming an "L" shape, facing... Darkdemon, and suddenly roared.

　Ultimate move—"Heroic Light Wave"! A spiral-shaped light wave instantly erupted from his arm. Dark, riding a white dragon, was flying in the air, not far away. Without the ability to see the entire scene, he might have been defeated here. But Dark's vigilance had been heightened by Lance's actions, and he sensed the danger almost instantly.

　He suddenly turned to the side, and the "Blue-Eyed White Dragon" that sat down immediately flipped over to block him.

　The "Heroic Beam" struck the "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" instantly, while its side shockwave grazed past Dark.

　A twelve-star supermodel magic sprite's ultimate skill is enough to instantly evaporate eight thousand points of health.

　Dark's "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" managed to withstand the attack, but its health bar was instantly pushed to the bottom, leaving it with very low health.

　"Thunderclouds!"

　He frowned and gave a reminder.

　The "Thundercloud" raised its right hand, and the second "Thunderstorm" descended instantly.

　The "King of Light" was once again surrounded by thunder and storm.

　The base attributes of "Thundercloud" have increased by a full third. The power of "Thunderstorm" has also increased by fifteen percent.

　With these two combined, the second "Thunderstorm" finally broke through the damage tolerance limit of the "King of Light Heroes", causing him to be on the verge of death instantly, and then, he died suddenly!

　However, the reason he went from being on the verge of death to dying suddenly was not because of the increased power of the "Thunderstorm".

　But because.

　Lance sacrificed the "Clown of Light" as a offering!

　As the most hidden link in the community of shared destiny, the death of "Clown of Light" is the key to breaking this chain.

　In order to summon a new twelve-star magical spirit, Lance abandoned the "Clown of Light" and also broke the chain.

　But he completed the summoning with only 1 health point remaining!

　40,

Chapter 1560 100,000 Volts, Obliterating to Ashes (4k)

　The intensity of this match has exceeded the expectations of many viewers. Lance Gascoyle's health bar remained fixed at [1], firmly holding the attention of almost everyone.

　But with the death of the "King of Heroes of Light," even viewers who didn't understand the story at all subconsciously felt that something had changed.

　At this moment, Lance had already summoned a new twelve-star magical spirit. It was a human-type magical spirit of the same light attribute, and its card name was "Redemption Priest," which had the ability to revive the dead.

　According to Lance's thinking, with the "King of Light" stationed there, he had no fear of being eliminated.

　At this point, summoning the "Redemption Priest" will not only protect the Priest but also provide more support to the "King of Light," thus ensuring the Priest's invincibility.

　Even if the "King of Light" is killed by some extremely special ultimate move, he can be revived.

　After that, using these two twelve-star magical spirits as a base, we can gradually erode Dark Dimon's lineup, and then look for opportunities to attack Dark Dimon's main body. Eventually, we will find a chance to achieve victory.

　However, this idea is far too naive.

　When he finally summoned the "Priest of Redemption", the "King of Light" was already beyond dead.

　His blood-locking chain was immediately forced, and in an instant, it was in a precarious situation.

　At this point, let alone the "Thunder King," even a casual strike from "New Moon" or "Blue-Eyes White Dragon," or even a small splash attack, could...

　Let him lose.

　"The Light of Redemption!"

　Therefore, as soon as Lance summoned the "Redemption Priest," he immediately roared. The "Redemption Priest" suddenly raised his staff high, and holy light shot into the sky from the crystal ball at the tip of the staff.

　The dark clouds in the sky were broken for a moment, and then a pillar of light descended, enveloping Lance and the "Redemption Priest".

　This "Light of Redemption" is also an "Absolute Defense" with a protective effect. Among Light-type Magical Spirits, there are indeed relatively many high-star Magical Spirit cards with this type of ultimate skill.

　Lance's deck alone contains more than one such card.

　His face was filled with anxiety, and he was racing against time. Only when he saw the "light of salvation" descend from the sky did he suddenly breathe a sigh of relief.

　Next, all he has to do is have the "Redemption Priest" pull the "Hero King of Light" back from the graveyard into the arena.

　Then he himself must summon and activate another magic card from his hand.

　That magic card is called "Holy Light Seal," a high-level magic card that can seal the target's ultimate attack and immobilize them.

　Even if this "Holy Light Seal" doesn't necessarily work on the "God Cards," it can weaken them somewhat, thus narrowing the gap between them and the "God Cards."

　He still has a chance to turn the tide if he releases "Resurgence of Light" and "Seal of Holy Light".

　As the saying goes, one must survive in the cracks.

　Lance Gascoyle wasn't originally such an idealistic person. But in the current situation, this was the only way to survive he could think of, so naturally he poured all his hopes into this idea.
