The wrong person on the ground, the opening sword soul template

Chapter 173 Creating the Duel King Game

Seeing that Dix had even used mind control skills, Liang Yue no longer held back.

A burst of blue and white light appeared behind him, with twenty-four first-class weapons faintly visible within it.

"Can you kill them all? Aren't these monsters your companions?"

Dix was still laughing heartily. Although Liang Yue's weapons looked powerful, he could only use two at most at the same time.

So no matter how many of them appear, they only look like they're actually there.

He was prepared to pick up his gun and deal with the situation properly.

Twenty-four sharp blades were enveloped by Liang Yue's Wuwo Sword Qi, and in an instant, the twenty-four sharp blades covered the entire battlefield.

The blue-white, selfless sword energy seemed to be burning, or as if it had come alive, shimmering with a cold light as it burned.

The sword energy of Wuwo condensed into a special force field, freezing everyone except Liang Yue in place, unable to move.

Dix tried to break free, but his body was being cut by more and more sword energy, and the numerous wounds made him dare not make any rash moves.

"What the hell are you using?!"

"Ultimate Ghost Sword Technique - Storm Style! You are still the first target I use to unleash it."

Under Liang Yue's control, Dix's figure was moved to the center of the sword formation.

Dix sensed something was wrong and immediately used his bloodline power.

The entire artificial maze seemed to come back to life at this moment, with the ceiling and floor coming alive and then enveloping Dix.

Things were indeed not that simple, but since Liang Yue was prepared to take action, he would not give Dicks a chance to escape.

Liang Yue's figure moved at lightning speed in an instant, and the next moment he was in front of one of the weapons.

A multitude of status skills, including Selfless Sword Qi, War Fever, Flowing Heart, Limit Break Weapon, and Weapon Control, instantly enveloped his entire body.

He approached Dix, a sharp blade clutched in his hand.

Liang Yue's figure, moving at lightning speed in the air, transformed directly into a dazzling golden dragon-shaped sword aura.

Within the sword domain of the Selfless Sword Qi, Dix's figure was enveloped in the rocks of the man-made maze.

Liang Yue used high-speed movement to alternately use various sharp blades to perform high-speed displacement slashes towards Dix's position.

Ryu and the others only saw several continuous golden flashes appearing in the maze, flickering continuously within this sword domain.

The clang of metal against metal, the howling of swords, the roar of tigers and the cry of dragons.

The storm formed by the sword light and the sounds of sword cries became increasingly frequent, and the rock where Dix was located was being shattered at high speed.

The speed at which the artificial maze enveloped Dix was ultimately weaker than the speed at which Liang Yue destroyed it.

As Dix's figure emerged from the rock, Death's scythe silently descended.

As Liang Yue continuously switched weapons, she concentrated the abilities of the twenty-four weapons and the selfless sword energy contained within them all into her right hand.

Then Liang Yue came to the ground, poured all the sword energy into her right hand, and swung it at Dix.

All that could be seen was a dense, exaggerated golden sword light that instantly enveloped Dix's entire body.

"boom!"

The golden sword light formed an extremely dense energy shockwave, piercing through Dix's torso in an instant.

Even with Lv5 and the rocky defenses of the man-made maze, his entire torso was still swallowed up by this attack.

Above Dix’s navel, only his arms and head remained.

He didn't even have time to say another word before he died completely.

Daedalus's pupils also disappeared at this moment.

"Your destiny has come to an end."

All that could be seen were the twenty-four sharp blades that had enveloped the battlefield, which gradually transformed into blue-white particles of light and slowly dissipated within the battlefield.

This move consumed about one-fifth of his strength, but the results were indeed quite good.

He had no idea that Dix possessed the ability to merge with man-made mazes; thankfully, there was the Storm.

Otherwise, they might have escaped this time.

Liang Yue carefully sensed the sensations and, upon confirming that he only needed to expend several times more energy to continue releasing it, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Is this the power of a storm?

When unleashing a storm-like final strike, the sword energy and abilities of numerous blades can be concentrated and released in a short period of time.

When not in use, Liang Yue only needs to store the Selfless Sword Qi in the weapon.

In this way, when releasing it, it's equivalent to releasing several times the amount of blue bars stored in Liang Yue at the same time.

Liang Yue released everyone else from their restraints. After witnessing her incredible skill, they felt a sense of admiration for her.

Life was filled with longing; she also wanted to possess such amazing moves.

She would be very satisfied even if she could only control 10% of it.

Reed, Rey, and the other heretics excitedly walked over, "Liang Yue, you're ridiculously strong!"

"I've made up my mind, from now on you're our boss!"

Liang Yue walked up to Dix and used her inertia to freeze him.

“The man-made maze can serve as our follow-up base, so Dix’s eyes are still useful.”

At this moment, Liu curiously opened her backpack. During the battle with Dix's people, she had collected some items that looked like they might be useful.

Then a bead the size of a fist began to glow.

"Liang Yue, look!"

The bead in Ryu's hand is glowing, a mechanism in the man-made maze is activated, and then the ceiling deforms.

Liang Yue and the others then saw the tunnel that led directly to the ground!
"Great! With this, we can go directly from the middle level to the ground!"

Everyone cheered.

The Daedalus clan spent over a thousand years building, but they only managed to build up to the 18th level of the underground city.

This demonstrates just how incredibly difficult it is to construct a man-made maze.

Liang Yue began to lead the search of the corpses. Without Dix's eyes, he had a total of five eyeball keys.

After collecting everything, Liang Yue and the others closed the ground tunnel and chose to reach the surface via the conventional route.

Bringing a large number of monsters directly from the tunnel to the surface could cause unnecessary panic.

On the way back, Liang Yue kept thinking about how to bring this incident to a perfect end.

"Getting all the races on the ground to accept the heretic is no easy task. So how do we get rid of those preconceived notions first?"

Liang Yue pondered his own experiences. He had watched many movies, read many novels, and played many games.

"Right, don't gods all like to have fun? We can start with games."

"So, what kind of game can everyone participate in, and is also fun enough?"

Liang Yue led everyone to the ground. Because he was thinking, no one around him disturbed him.

Reed, Rey, and Guross looked at each other in bewilderment.

After witnessing Liang Yue's incredible skills, they all became more cautious.

The truth that there are always people more capable than oneself and that there is always something beyond one's understanding made them deeply aware of the importance of peace.

Peaceful contact is essential for coexisting with the terrestrial races.

So they whispered among themselves about what to do once they reached the ground. Liang Yue thought for a moment, and already had some ideas in mind.

That's the card monster duel from Yu-Gi-Oh!!

Yu-Gi-Oh! is a long-running anime series about card games.

In contrast, in Card Monster Duel, you simply replace the monsters in the game with monsters from the dungeon.

They even engraved members of various clans, and even gods, on the cards, as long as the prize money for card duels was extravagant enough.

Then it will definitely create an amazing craze throughout Orario, and even the whole world.

Just do it.

Liang Yue began to recall the effects of each rune when she engraved them, and then she started to think about how the specific patterns should be applied to the card.

And most importantly, how should the Monster Duel Arena be designed?

When Liang Yue brought the heretic to the ground, it caused another disturbance.

However, it was discovered that most of these monsters were fair-skinned and beautiful, and they did not exhibit any aggressive behavior.

The onlookers were completely relieved.

Wow, these monsters are all so good-looking!

"So what if you look good? Are you out of your mind?"

"When we were fighting in the dungeon, I was only focused on fighting for my life. Who would have thought that these monsters could communicate with us?"

Various thoughts arose in the minds of passersby.

Liang Yue looked at Liu and the others, "Help me contact Hephaestus and Chun. As long as you tell them that I am going to forge equipment that surpasses the first-class weapon, they will definitely come!"
Then, following this shopping list, the materials were purchased and delivered to the Gubney family.

Liang Yue led the heretics and settled them in the staff dormitory next to the largest casino.

Afterwards, he once again traveled to the Gubney Familia's settlement with a wealth of inspiration.

Gubernius stood by the forge, studying the unusual metal.

"You're here? What brings you here this time?"

Liang Yue thought for a moment, "Master, I want to create a game that will be a sensation in Orario."

"A game, can it really cause a sensation in Orario?"

Gubernius knew Liang Yue quite well, so he figured she must have some good ideas.

"So how can I help you?"

Liang Yue smiled and said, "Actually, I need a lot of materials, and Hephaestus and Chun will probably be here soon."

"You actually called them all over? What are you trying to do?"

Gubernau was somewhat puzzled. Liang Yue's creativity was beyond question, so he also began to be curious.

Hephaestus and Chun arrived in no time.

"Liang Yue, you'd better have a reasonable explanation for how busy I am."

Hephaestus crossed his arms, looking slightly displeased.

Chun was filled with curiosity. "What are we going to build? I'm already excited."

Liang Yue then shared her idea: "Have you ever thought about what it would be like if we could create a game?"

And if the characters in the game could come alive in reality, how amazing would that game be!

"How is this possible?"

Hephaestus snorted, "Let's not even talk about how our divine power can't be used on the ground. Even if we could use it to create life, the difficulty would be ridiculously high."

Liang Yue began to refine her idea little by little, and everyone's eyes lit up.

"Is this the creativity of humankind? I'm already looking forward to this game!"

Hephaestus looked at Liang Yue with excitement, knowing that she would only be interested in unknown weapons.

And now, this novel game has her extremely excited.

Because they possess almost infinite lifespans, the gods' creativity becomes very limited.

Or perhaps, because of their long lifespans, they've lost their keen perception of time. Things that should be done in a few hours...

It's perfectly fine for the gods to delay for several years, decades, or even longer.

Four people, each responsible for a small part, worked for about a day to complete two dueling platforms and two sets of dueling cards.

Liang Yue watched all this with excitement, "Let's go test it out near the Adventurers' Guild, shall we?"

After saying that, everyone put down their work and went directly to the open space outside the Adventurers' Guild.

After Liang Yue left the Gubniu clan's residence, he asked the clan members there to inform everyone at the Hearth Hall.

The dueling arena consists of two luxurious platforms, with trays in front of the seats containing slots for cards.

Five monster card slots, five spell/trap card slots. One graveyard, one extra card zone, and one deck zone.

There are currently thirteen card zones in total.

Eina rushed out of the guild and saw Liang Yue and Chun standing inside the dueling arena.

"Mr. Liang Yue, what are you doing?"

"I invented a game and wanted to come here to test it out and see if it's fun."

"game?"

Liang Yue nodded, "Yes, the game is called Duel King! It's a game where you fight using special rune cards!"
Now, the game begins! "

As Liang Yue finished speaking, the dueling platform for the two of them simultaneously shone with dazzling light.

Then, both dueling platforms simultaneously released their light, dividing the area between the two into twenty neat squares.

"In the first round, each player draws five cards and has two thousand life points. The player whose life points reach zero or whose deck has no cards loses."

Chun drew five cards with Liang Yue. "Liang Yue, what should we do next?"

Each player has one main god card in their extra card zone, and only one. A special effect can only be activated once per game.

Furthermore, this card can only be used in the extra card slot.

"Alright, let's start by flipping a coin. The side that lands up can set up the area first, but cannot attack!"
"Tsubaki, you're going first!"

Chun nodded quickly, "I activate the God Card—Hephaestus!"

All we see is Tsubaki unfolding Hephaestus from her Extra Deck and placing it face up in the Extra Deck of the Duel Arena.

And so, in the center between Liang Yue and Chun, the dueling platform shone with dazzling light.

Hephaestus's three-dimensional projection appeared directly on the scene.

Wow! It's a goddess! This game is so cool!

"I never imagined that the main god could appear here in the form of a card! This is amazing! I'm definitely going to buy them all!"

"The effect of my God card is that it increases the attack power of all characters in the Familia area by 200 points!"
Continue until the end of this round!

"Next, I summon my familiar card, Thunder Demon Sword!"

Thunder Demon Sword, four-star, attack power 1400 points.

Due to the effect of the God Card, the attack power was increased to 1600.
Liang Yu rubbed his forehead. "Chun, we can't attack in the first round!"
