Chapter 129: The Dream of Purgatory (End)
"Who is she?" Li Guanqi turned his head to look at his brother beside him with a puzzled look.

He was certain that there was no such person in the Hippo Card Shop. The outfit was so unique that if he had seen it before, he would definitely remember it.

However, the older brother beside him was uncharacteristically silent, not as talkative as before. He remained silent, his eyes hollow and lifeless. Deep within his pupils, a faint, rapidly changing string of binary code flashed.

It feels like a program that runs smoothly suddenly gets stuck and an unknown bug is discovered.

And this world is trying to fix, or rather... eliminate this BUG.

The twin players who were chatting and laughing in the last game now had a stern look on their faces, with a murderous look in their eyes.

Both sides rolled the dice, and the woman in black robe attacked first.

"Normal Summon, [Original Stone Dragon Variant Emerald Dragon]." Unlike other duelists, the black-robed woman would clearly say the card name and effect every time she took a picture of a card, which was out of tune with the surrounding environment.

"Activate the effect of [Stone Dragon], and place a [Stone] Spell/Trap Card from your deck on the field."

The Gemini player threw out his cards without hesitation: "[Effective Cover]."

The black-robed woman seemed to have anticipated this, her expression calm. "[Original Stone Dragon] single link, link summon, [Blue-eyed Elf]."

"The effect of [Elf] adds [Light Spirit Hall] from the deck to the hand or sends it to the graveyard."

"Infinite Bubbles." The Gemini player changed his usual style and succinctly stated the card name and effect, "Invalid [Elf]."

The black-robed woman had a blank expression on her face as she discarded a card from her hand: "[White Girl] effect, place [True Light] face-up from your deck."

"The effect of [True Light] covers [Blue Eyes' Prayer]."

"Discard the card [Proliferated G] in your hand, activate the effect of [Prayer], and search for one monster and one magic trap."

"Gray Flowing Beauty." The Gemini player threw out the third hand trap with a decisive tone.

The black-robed woman's voice remained calm: "[Named One of Obliteration], declares [Gray Flowing Beauty]."

The twin players' pupils suddenly contracted, as if their throats were being strangled, and their breathing paused for a moment.

A sharp sword light flashed across Li Guanqi's sea of ​​consciousness without warning, cutting off all illusions.

"Click——"

Li Guanqi only felt a sharp pain in his head, something cracked, and his chaotic consciousness was split by the sword. He subconsciously closed his eyes, grabbed his hair tightly with both hands, and let out a low howl.

He's going to wake up.

【child…】

The cold yet familiar cry echoed deep in his mind.

Li Guanqi suddenly opened his eyes, his vision was still a little blurry. He instinctively turned his head and looked around, looking for the source of the sound.

However, everything around has changed.

The card shop that was once bustling with activity was now deserted. Duelists, cards, tables and chairs... all disappeared.

Li Guanqi felt a strong sense of unease in his heart. He rushed out of the card shop, but the scene before him made him speechless for a moment.

The streets were empty, and the world was burning, melting, and crumbling.

The tall buildings twisted and deformed like candles engulfed in flames, slowly collapsing, and flames filled the view.

Purgatory, purgatory on earth.

The sky looked like a giant, cracked vacuum tube, making a teeth-grinding crackling sound.

A huge, pitch-black crack suddenly appeared in the sky. In the crack, a pair of scarlet eyes slowly opened, cold and ruthless, indifferent to everything below, like a god looking down at ants.

Li Guanqi stared at the huge scarlet eyes, his body stiff and unable to move.

【child…】

The calling voice rang out again, but this time it was not in the mind, but came from those giant eyes, carrying an echo, shaking the entire collapsed world.

"Click——"

The crack in the sky widened, like a vacuum tube shattered by an invisible force. The fragmented scene began to peel off, revealing an even deeper darkness behind it.

Pictures flashed before his eyes like a kaleidoscope.

In the dark and cold vacuum tube, I woke up from a dream, opened my eyes, and heard the humming of various instruments all around me.

"Snapped!"

The hatch popped open, and blinding white light poured in.

I picked up the scepter and slowly flew out of the vacuum tube.

I was suspended in mid-air, looking down. Below and in the air, various forces were engaged in a war.

Spirit beast, shadow spirit clothes, star warrior, gem knight. Shadow.

All eyes were on me, shocked, confused, and wary.

"What is that?!" The Divine Shadow Yi Midrash looked at me with horror.

I didn't answer, but slowly raised the scepter in my hand. A deep green light suddenly lit up at the top of the scepter, like a newborn star blooming in the darkness.

Immediately afterwards, the entire Divine Star Tree began to vibrate violently, and ten particles opened one after another. Ten hellfire machines of different shapes flew out from them. A million hellfire machines surrounded me, emitting low roars.

"Hahaha!" Midrash laughed wildly, his voice echoing over the battlefield, filled with a hint of madness and disdain. "This is the masterpiece of God!"

She suddenly raised her staff, and the purple gem on the top of the staff flashed with a strange light.

"when--"

A muffled chime echoed. A crimson halo, centered around the Midrash, suddenly expanded, sweeping across the battlefield like ripples. Countless Shaddoll monsters were drawn into the halo, roaring and wailing. Monsters from other factions retreated, fearing they would be caught in the ripples. The ground began to shake and crack. Pitch-black arms stretched out from the earth, followed by twisted figures that slowly crawled out. Each of them was draped by a purple shadow string, like a puppet on a string, connected to the Midrash high in the sky.

I faced Midrash from a distance, and slowly raised the scepter in my hand. The green gem on the top of the scepter burst into light.

"when--"

Another bell rang, and the same crimson aura spread from me. But this aura was completely different from any Midrash-derived aura. Wherever it passed, Shaddolls were reduced to ash. Even the resurrected dead were unable to withstand this force, instantly disintegrating, their shadows shattering into pieces.

The army of Shaddoll summoned by Midrash quickly melted in front of this halo, like ice and snow under the scorching sun.

"The power of destruction! Hahaha!" Midrash watched the puppet army being quickly annihilated. Instead of feeling any fear, she revealed an even more excited smile. She opened her arms and embraced the entire battlefield, "Let the war begin!"

She turned her head suddenly, her eyes burning with fighting spirit.

"Shadow-Melt!"

The midrash's voice grew sharp and frantic, the shadows behind her began to dance wildly, and the space around her began to distort.

"The empty dream of purgatory!" I whispered these words, and they echoed clearly in the sky.

Millions of hellfire machines roared to the sky, and a terrifying purgatory storm swept across the battlefield, burning everything to ashes wherever it went.

【child.】

【For Mom and Dad】

Kill them

"Hello, hello... can you hear me..."

Someone gently patted Li Guanqi's cheek. The cool touch accompanied by a slight stinging pain woke him up from his chaos.

Li Guanqi felt his head was extremely heavy and he struggled to open his eyelids a crack.

His vision was blurry, and he could only barely make out the outline of a woman in a crimson dress, leaning over him.

"Uh." Li Guanqi raised his hand with difficulty, covering his aching temple, his brows furrowed, his voice hoarse and weak, "Where is this..."

He felt like he had had an extremely long dream, but he could not remember the content of the dream at all.

Qi Mengsi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw him wake up. She stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes, then asked softly, "What is the attack power of the [Black Rose Dragon]?"

"About 2400." Li Guanqi answered reflexively.

"Doctor!" Qi Mengsi turned and shouted towards the corridor outside, "You can be discharged now!"

Li Guanqi: ???

Wait, discharged? I'm... in the hospital?
He blinked hard, trying to make his vision clearer, while his mind raced and his sanity slowly returned.

At least he remembered that the woman in the red dress was his nominal fiancée.

"What's wrong with me?" Li Guanqi struggled to sit up, but pulled the wounds on his body, causing him to grimace in pain.

He tried hard to recall, but his memory was like a kite with a broken string. He only remembered that he was sprinting towards a victory in the metaverse, making great progress. How did he suddenly end up lying in the hospital?
Qi Mengsi looked at his confused expression and sighed softly, with a hint of helplessness in her tone: "You must have been very excited when you were dueling."

"Sometimes." Li Guanqi answered honestly.

After all, as a duelist, one still has to roar from time to time.

"What does this have to do with me going to the hospital?"

"You just spontaneously combusted." Qi Mengsi pointed at the bandages wrapped around his body and added, "Luckily Xier discovered it in time, otherwise..."

She didn't say anything else, but the meaning was obvious.

"So exciting?!" Li Guanqi widened his eyes and exclaimed in surprise.

Burning in the physical sense?!

"That's so exciting." Qi Mengsi nodded, with a hint of admiration and curiosity in her tone, "How did you do it?"

Li Guanqi shook his head with a wry smile, unable to remember exactly what had happened.

"Forget it, let's be discharged first." Qi Mengsi said, "I still have to earn points, so I can't stay with you all the time."

"No." Li Guanqi said blankly, "I'm injured, can I be discharged from the hospital?"

"We need to observe him for at least 48 hours to prevent infection and complications. If electrolyte imbalance or secondary shock occurs, it's no joke."

"It's okay, it's just a small injury." Qi Mengsi waved his hand and said boldly, "I'll fuck you."

"It will be fine after you finish eating."

Li Guanqi didn't know what he was thinking about. His face turned slightly red and he muttered softly, "I was scared to death. It turned out to be this grass."

The herbs she grows do have miraculous healing properties.

After a while, Qi Mengsi discharged him from the hospital and brought him back to the apartment. She warned Xier, "Keep an eye on him, be careful if he catches fire again."

The maid Xier nodded to indicate that she had received it.

Li Guanqi took the herbs and returned to the room. He put on his helmet immediately, not because he wanted to duel, but because he wanted to know what was going on.

As a result, a cold prompt popped up.

[Node 14 on the 5678th is under maintenance]

"The server crashed?!"

"Which bastard did this!"
