"The attack power... has risen to 3000 points. Damn it..."
Having lost the strength to even clench his fists, Yilin, trapped in darkness and despair, could only feel a deep sense of powerlessness.
Are you going to lose?
This time, it was also because of his own willfulness that he dragged Aisha into the dark game.
However, this time, no one was there to help him bear it all.
("Leave it to me, Rin.")
Mingming vowed to become the hero who replaced Edie.
"I'm so useless... I couldn't protect anyone in the end..."
Gradually losing the faith that supported her, Yilin's slender body staggered, as if she would fall into the dark game in the next second.
"Rin! Hold on, Rin!"
In the distance, You Ling, who was running back following the light of the Millennium Brick, had already begun to get used to using a girl's body for strenuous exercise.
"This voice is from Xiao Ai... No, it should be You Ling..."
Normally, Aisha would call herself 'Rin-chan', but when You Ling controlled Aisha's body, he would call himself 'Rin' in a familiar way.
"He's obviously an annoying guy, but he can protect Xiao Ai again and again. I'm really enviable..."
Yi Lin, who was in a daze, could no longer tell whether he envied You Ling for being able to protect Ai Xia, or envied the fact that Ai Xia had someone to protect her.
However, when he was about to lose consciousness, Yilin felt a little relieved when he confirmed that Aixia was safe.
"how is this possible?"
After seeing Aisha Carlos, Megan was so shocked that she even forgot about the offensive operations, successfully giving Yilin a brief respite.
"He's trapped in the barrier I set up. There's no reason for him to come back. Could it be that Dekuer lost the Dark Game? How could he, who possesses the [Devil's Advent], lose to a student from this academy?"
Although it is unknown how Aisha walked out of the barrier, judging from her current state of being able to move freely, the one who lost the dark game could only be Megan's own companions.
"You were careless because the other person was a student. As expected, stupidity is the only thing that cannot be cured."
According to Megan's guess, Dekuer definitely lost. He probably didn't even have time to summon his trump card, [Devil's Advent].
"Fortunately, I am not that stupid. Even if a lion fights a rabbit, it will use all its strength and will not let down its guard even for a moment."
The [Devil Appears] that is ready to kill Yilin, and Yilin's shattered mental state, are the best proof of Megan's decisiveness.
"Once I have dealt with this red-haired cutie, it will be your turn, the white-haired cutie."
"Cheer up, Rin!"
When You Ling arrived at Dark Yugi's side, he immediately noticed that Yi Lin was in very poor health.
This is probably what the man in black robe mentioned before. With the mental strength of ordinary students, it is difficult to last more than two rounds in the dark game.
However, due to the barrier of the Dark Game, outsiders cannot interfere with the duel when the Dark Game is unfolding.
Even Aisha's body was isolated from the blurry black fog.
"This is the only way I can try... I'll leave it to you, Aisha!"
Souls exchanged, at the critical moment You Ling returned the control of the body to Aisha.
"Hey? What should I do now, Mr. Yurei?"
Aisha seemed flustered and at a loss as she was suddenly given the task in such an emergency.
"Throw the Millennium Brick to Rin. If my bet is correct, this thing should be able to pass through the Dark Game."
Chapter 42: The First Host Replacement
"Mr. You Ling, are you planning to..."
The brows of the Aisha girl twitched slightly. She knew better than anyone what doing this meant.
"This is the only way to save Yilin now. Hurry, Aisha!"
"Well, I see."
He nodded heavily. Although he felt extremely complicated, Aisha did not even give himself time to hesitate.
The most important and top priority now is to rescue Yilin from the danger of the Dark Game.
No matter how complicated the remaining issues are, let’s consider them after rescuing Yilin.
Aisha made up her mind and took off the thousand-year-old building block chain hanging from her snow-white neck, held it tightly, and pointed it at Yilin through the barrier of the dark game.
"Please save Rin-chan, Mr. Yurei, she is my best friend."
He first whispered something silently, and then the volume of his voice gradually increased.
"Rin-chan! Catch Mr. Yurei!"
"What, catch Yu Ling?"
Yilin, whose consciousness was already blurred, was slightly awakened by Aixia's inexplicable request.
What does it mean to catch You Ling?
Can that thing be caught?
Yilin raised his head with difficulty, and suddenly found the thousand-year-old building block that had passed through the dark game barrier and drawn an elegant parabola in the sky.
Subconsciously triggering his reflex nerves, Yilin used up the last of his strength to accurately catch the Millennium Brick at the end of the parabola and held it in his arms.
At that moment, it was as if different souls were blending into each other.
Yilin's fragile mental strength no longer requires him to deliberately empty his mind as he did when he first established a soul connection with Aisha.
The door is completely wide open.
At the same time, Aisha felt that the connection between herself and You Ling was cut off.
Although she was mentally prepared, when this moment really came, Aixia still couldn't help feeling disappointed.
This is also something that can't be helped.
"Come on, Yurei-san. Go be Rin-chan's hero."
When You Ling opened his eyes again, he found himself in a completely new body.
Similar to the first time they exchanged souls, You Ling subconsciously reached out and shook his hand.
The slender and fair fingers of the same girl can be felt to be obviously different from those of Aisha.
At the edge of his vision, he could vaguely see the red color at the end of Yilin's hair, and his chest seemed to be a little heavier.
Of course, the most intuitive feeling comes from the pain of the dark game.
After being baptized by the black hole, Yilin felt as if his body was about to fall apart, and he had been enduring the pain since just now.
"What the hell is going on here!"
Yilin's reaction was exactly the same as Aisha's when they swapped bodies.
After all, when faced with this situation, most people’s first reaction would definitely be confusion and disbelief.
"This is a last resort, Rin. With your soul and mental state just now, you can no longer continue the dark game. So from now on, I will take your place."
"Let Yu Ling fight in my place... You mean, like Aisha?"
If Aisha had that kind of good-natured, stupid personality, she would have a strong ability to accept and quickly accepted You Ling's existence.
Then Yilin is very smart, and after judging the crisis and pros and cons of the current situation, he has to accept You Ling's existence.
"Can a duel like this be substituted, Yurei?"
However, because he joined the duel midway, Yilin himself couldn't bear to watch the scene left for You Ling.
The scene on his side was first completely cleared by the [Black Hole], and the opponent also fused the [Demon Appearance] with 3000 attack power. No matter how you think about it, it is already a crushing defeat.
But You Ling doesn't think so.
After glancing at the remaining cards in Yilin's hand, You Ling determined that this duel was winnable.
Probably because the deck construction is very simple and the utilization rate of hand cards is very low. Most duelists in this world can still maintain a large number of hand cards even after several rounds of duels.
But it is not without benefits. For example, the cards left by Yilin have made You Ling think of that classic scene of the hero in his mind.
"Leave it to me, Rin!"
"!!!"
("Leave it to me, Rin!")
Same words, same tone, same sense of security.
At this moment, Yilin's understanding of You Ling seemed to coincide with his brother Edie's sacrifice of the Elf Eye to protect him in the Dark Game.
Even though he was in the soul state now, Yilin could clearly feel his heartbeat accelerating.
"You Ling, you won't lose, right?"
"of course not."
Maintaining unparalleled self-confidence at all times is You Ling's attitude and pride in playing cards.
"You won't lose to Dark Yugi again?"
"Again? Haha, don't worry, I will blow up the darkness!"
"Then I'll leave it to you, Yu Ling. Please, defeat the darkness for me once."
This is Yilin's most sincere expectation and request that comes from the bottom of his heart and resonates deep in his soul.
At this moment, Megan, the barrier master standing opposite Yilin, also noticed that Yilin's mental state began to recover. Of course, she couldn't miss the thousand-year-old building block thrown by Aisha.
"That's a thousand-year-old artifact? I didn't expect that an ordinary girl from this academy would have a thousand-year-old artifact. No wonder Dekuer lost."
After realizing the seriousness of the matter, Megan decided to resolve the issue quickly and without further delay.
Anyway, I only have one last blow left to win.
"It's too late to recover your mental strength now, little cutie. Attack power 3000 points, take the direct attack of [Demon Appearance]! - Heavenly Demon Thunder!"
"But if you want to win the duel, you must survive this attack first. Activate the covered card."
Facing the thunder falling from the sky, You Ling raised his hand and uncovered the card that Yi Lin had covered in the previous round.
"——Activate the Trap Card [Devil's Dice]!"
[Devil's Dice Trap Card Effect: Roll 1 dice. The attack and defense of all monsters controlled by the opponent decrease by the number of dice rolled × 100 before the end of the turn.]
The reverse version of the quick-play magic card [Angel's Dice], which reduces the opponent's monster's attack power by the number of dice characters.
Yilin's current health is 2600 points, and the attack power of the demon manifestation is 3000 points.
You must roll a number above 4, and the probability of survival is 1/3, which seems not high.
"It's high enough!" You Ling asserted.
Don't even think about what the situation is now.
You Ling, who possesses "heaven's luck", and Yi Lin, who possesses "strong luck", fight together.
Just a roll of the dice, it will definitely give the best number.
What the opponent should be most thankful for is that this is not a 36-sided die.
A demon, fitting with the dark style of the game, appears in the sky, spinning and throwing bright red dice.
Roll: 5
"It's not 6 o'clock?" Yilin asked in shock.
"Because 5 is the best number." You Ling smiled mysteriously.
[Devil Manifestation ATK: 3000 → 2500]
The next second, the weakened lightning passed over the body.
I don’t know if it’s because Yilin’s physical fitness is better than Aixia’s, or if You Ling, who had been electrocuted three times tonight, gradually began to get used to it.
This time, there was no unbearable pain, only the number representing the health value dropped wildly.
Yilin LP: 2600 → 100
