Yu-Gi-Oh!: Phobic Peptide Mad Dragon Executioner Dragon

How can a vow be broken?

The dead cannot be brought back to life.

The price must be paid!

—Preface to *The Record of Enlightenment - Old Chapters*

Since he had not yet decided whether to join the "convicts," Xing Liang left the conference hall under Mo Yu's guidance.

One reason is that outsiders cannot listen to the meeting content, and the other is that newcomers are not yet at the stage where they need to be exposed to these things.

Stepping through the "door" of the conference hall, Xing Liang removed the pure black mask he was wearing.

The "convicts" all wear white robes and masks. This serves two purposes: firstly, to conceal their identities and avoid revealing their true identities; secondly, members like Buddy who are directly wanted are a minority, and most of them maintain normal lives in their daily lives, only reverting to their "convict" attire when carrying out missions.

To completely disguise themselves, they also learn falsetto, change their walking posture, and so on, so that even acquaintances will not recognize them. Mo Yu, as a newcomer, is still learning these things one by one.

Secondly, create a "divided" situation. No matter who you are, the moment you put on the white robe and mask, you should put aside your personal feelings and fulfill the duties of a "prisoner" to complete the mission. Even if your relatives or friends are at the scene of the mission or the target, you must still complete the "execution".

Each member of the convict wears a mask with a different pattern, which is related to the missions they have completed. Each time a mission is completed, a corresponding white pattern will be rubbed onto their black mask. For example, Xing Liang, who has not yet joined, and the newcomer Mo Yu have not completed any missions, so their masks are pure black.

The masks of old men like Buddy were mostly white, while the mask of the leader of the convicts was almost pure white.

Standing in the corridor they had come from, the two of them, now alone together, felt as if ants were crawling all over them, making them extremely uncomfortable.

Mo Yu felt guilty for having mistaken Xing Liang for the murderer and even attacked him, while Xing Liang felt embarrassed because if Buddy hadn't taken Mo Yu away, the two of them wouldn't be standing here like this now.

When Mo Yu called out the name of the Order Academy, he was genuinely intent on killing him to avoid future trouble (the scattered corpses in the dungeon: I have no objection).

"What happened before was my fault. I'm sorry, Mr. Nianzhong."

Finally, Mo Yu broke the awkward silence by taking off his mask and bowing to Xing Liang in apology.

"Well, I've already heard the reason from Buddy. It's not entirely your fault. If I were in that situation, I would have shot without hesitation."

Xing Liang asked himself, if someone who suspected him of murdering his relatives and friends appeared in front of him, could he control himself and not take action?

The answer is no. If their roles were reversed, he would probably empty the magazine immediately.

Tormented by rejection, he became increasingly violent when he was away from people he knew. He had been suppressing his desire to vent violence, but last night those people just happened to walk right into his trap.

Xing Liang's current mental clarity is due not only to the treatment he received from the inmate doctor, but also to the fact that he completely vented his pent-up emotions last night in the simplest and most brutal way.

"You've already paid the price for attacking me. We're even now. Who knows, we might even be colleagues in the future."

Xing Liang plans to join the Criminal Inmates after the exchange competition ends; his current focus is on the upcoming exchange competition.

"Oh, right, take these magic cards."

Mo Yu wanted to say something, but Xing Liang pressed a card against her forehead.

"These are my friend's magic cards. As for how to use them, firstly..."

No one except the leader knows the exact location of the convicts' meeting hall. Other convicts can only open the "door" to the meeting hall by verifying their identity during specific time periods.

According to Badi, there are 12 such "gates" in the royal city alone, and using different "gates" at different times greatly reduces the risk of location exposure.

Normally, you will leave through the same door you enter through. However, if you enter a door while being chased, you can change the exit door's destination through the leader.

Similarly, inmates can quickly relocate by contacting their leader to open a temporary "door," which is why Xing Liang lost track of Buddy so quickly that day.

Buddy stepped out of the "door" and saw only Mo Yu standing to the side holding a few magic cards; Xing Liang was nowhere to be seen.

Buddy was somewhat disappointed; it seemed Xing Liang hadn't chosen to join them.

However, he thought again that although they were not allies, at least they were not enemies, and there would still be opportunities in the future.

"Hey, what are you daydreaming about? When did Mr. Nianzhong leave?"

He patted Mo Yu on the shoulder, and the latter mechanically turned his neck, his eyes slowly focusing, looking blankly at Buddy, as if he hadn't yet realized what he had asked.

"Hey kid, have you lost your mind? What kind of dazed look is this!"

Buddy took off his mask and hit Mo Yu on the head. Mo Yu opened his mouth as if to say something, but after a long time, he only managed to utter a nonsensical sentence: "Mr. Nianzhong, how scary."

"Do you even need to tell me? I saw those corpses myself."

"No, no, no, that's just as terrible, but I'm talking about something else entirely."

Mo Yu swallowed hard and held up the five magic cards in his hand.

"Senior Buddy, would you like to duel with me? I'd like to try a move that Mr. Nianzhong taught me."

Although it was strange, Buddy still brought Moyu to the empty room in the base used for dueling training. The two stood at opposite ends of the room and each unfolded their dueling disks.

At Mo Yu's request, they did not flip a coin, but instead chose to let Mo Yu go first.

"【Blackwing - Simon of Poisonous Wind】Ban off Hamadan of Sand from your hand, then Attach a Black Whirlwind to your Deck, then Summon from your hand, triggering Black Whirlwind's effect. Search your Deck for 【Blackwing - Sudri of Phantom Light】, Summon Phantom Light, and if it is successfully Summoned, activate its effect. C1: Search your Deck for 【Blackwing - Shama of Stormy Sand】, triggering Black Whirlwind's effect. C2: Search your Deck for 【Blackwing - Vatha the Rogue】."

Buddy nodded secretly, and with a perfectly executed black feather spread, he spun the card in his hand.

He had previously tested Mo Yu's dueling prowess, and he had no problem finishing with two Blackwing Assault Dragons and one Heavy Armored Raven. If his hand quality was good enough, Mo Yu could even achieve a first-come-first-served (FTK).

"I activate the effect of the card 'Shamash' from my hand and send it to the Graveyard. I then Attach one 'Blackwing Whirlwind' from my Deck to my field. If I have other Blackwing monsters on my field, I Special Summon 'Blackwing Dragon' and send it to the Graveyard along with 'Blackwing Elite Zephyros' and 'Blackwing Snowstorm Chinuk' from my Deck. I Special Summon 'Blackwing Dragon' from my Extra Deck."

"If I Special Summon a DARK Synchro Monster from the Extra Deck, I activate the effect of Blackwing Cyclone, Special Summon it from the Graveyard, and then activate the effect of Zephyrus the Elite from the Graveyard, which bounces Blackwing Cyclone from my field back to my hand. I Special Summon this card, and then I take 400 damage, but instead I place a Blackwing Counter on Blackwing Dragon."

"Activate Blackwing Whirlwind to bounce the card back to your hand, Synchro Summon Phantom and Vatara to Synchro Summon Level 6 [Blackwing - Star Shadow Bittersword Bird]. C1 Star Shadow Bittersword Bird's effect inflicts 800 damage to you; C2 Storm Sands' effect banishes yourself to activate and adds Phantom from the Graveyard back to your hand, then I take 700 damage, but instead I place another counter on Blackwing Dragon; C3 Blackwing Whirlwind's effect Special Summon Storm Sands' from the banished zone."

"If Star Shadow Bittersword Bird is in the Monster Zone, during the Main Phase you can Summon one Blackwing Monster at a time. If I Summon Phantom Radiance again, and it is successfully Summoned, I add 'Blackwing - Twin Shadows' with the Blackwing Dragon card name from my Deck to my hand. At the same time, I trigger the effect of Black Whirlwind and add 'Blackwing - Sudden Wind' from my Deck to my hand."

Actually, Black Whirlwind can search for anything here, because now, Xing Liang has completed the formula for victory for him.

He's about to start solving the problem.

Just when Buddy thought Mo Yu was going to continue Synchro Summoning Blackwing Monsters, he saw him reveal a Magic Card he had never seen before.

"I will tune the StarCraft of Illusion and the Sandstorm of Summer to Synchro Summon [Demon King Dragon - Fly King] at level 8."
