Chapter 166: The Greatest Poet of Biantana (2)

"Lili~grass on the plain."

"One year, one withering and one flourishing."

"Wildfire~can't be extinguished."

"The spring breeze blows and life begins again."

My name is Shuangshenghua. When I was nine years old, I had to recite "Three Hundred Tang Poems" after coming back from eight o'clock in the morning.

But after reciting it over and over again, I only know this poem "Fude Guyuancao Songbie".

Those guys named Du Fu and Li Bai are so troublesome. They recite a poem at every turn. Have they ever considered the feelings of the poets?

I'm so confused!

I can’t tell the difference, I really can’t tell the difference!

Living under someone else's roof, I can only pretend to hum a few times to get by.

There's no way. I don't have parents. Three years ago, I was a citizen, number 0641.

The so-called "numbered people" were humans born through industrial production, not through normal male-female reproduction. Ever since the arrival of the Divine Star Tree, bringing with it the Ena, the women of Biantana have been afflicted with a single-child curse. Ninety-nine percent of women can only give birth once in their lifetime, and after that, they will never conceive again.

Because of this curse, Biantana has had a numbered folk culture for over 800 years, fully integrated into daily life.

Up to the present day in 1067, most of them were actually numbered people, or direct descendants of numbered people.

It's just that I'm unlucky.

My affinity was only 2.25 at birth.

Affinity is an indicator for judging the retention efficiency of BNA. An affinity below 3.0 indicates that under normal circumstances, the outflow of BNA is greater than the inflow, and BNA cannot be stored.

In simple terms, without external supplies, your power won't recover and you won't have any talent for growth.

This type of people are also collectively referred to as "Forsaken by God," people who have been abandoned by God.

The scientists who created us, the numbered people, used an affinity index to divide us into different levels.

Those with high affinity will be sent to society for normal education.

Those with low affinity work as low-level production workers, miners, etc.

However, girls have a gender advantage. They don't have to work. When they are six or seven years old, they have a embryonic shape. If they are a beauty, they will continue to be raised and sold when they reach a certain age.

In Biantana, a citizen need not worry about being the last to leave his family.

It costs hundreds of thousands of yuan to customize a numbered card, which is not even as expensive as a rare card.

But, he deserves to die.

I didn't develop well! I was rejected!

What a sad story. I'm not even worthy of being sold.

In my case, I would first take the route of drug transformation, take some medicine, give it a try, and rescue myself. There is still a chance to become a beauty!

But, damn it!
What a terrible sin I committed in my previous life, no medicine can save me!
The medicine didn't help me to get better. Instead, I suffered adverse effects from it and became thinner and thinner.

She has no energy to work, no talent for affinity, and not even a hint of beauty.

I've become a complete waste.

It wasn't until that day that I realized that waste could have another use.

The duel between the gods in 1048, as recorded in "Duel Fairy Tale", actually happened.

Because I was right there.

So many people died then. I don’t understand duels, but I understand life and death.

Those who challenge the gods will be roasted into charcoal.

Everyone is trapped on the ground and must defeat the guardian of the stone tablet in a duel to get out.

No matter how high their status or how powerful they are, they all die at the hands of God.

At that time, I actually felt a sense of relief.

Hahaha.

Someone like me can actually die with those glamorous people.

Under the gods, all living beings are equal.

At this time, regardless of rich or poor, noble or humble, everyone will die.

I felt fairness for the first time in a long time.

But this sense of fairness didn't last long.

After the challengers found that they really couldn't win, they gave up the challenge one by one, leaving only a few unwilling bosses who were still trying to prove themselves.

Normally, I just need to be a quiet and good kid watching the show.

But damn it!

That starfish-headed stone man seems to have some mechanism. After every ten rounds, there will be a second attack, and when the second attack starts, the [Exodia] will be gathered.

I didn't understand this word at first, but I heard it thousands of times.

Even a fool like me knows that after collecting this [Exodia], I will start burning people.

For every ten games, the starfish-headed stone man is sure to win one game.

From a human perspective, one person is sent to die every ten rounds, which is equivalent to asking people what 1000-7 equals. During the torture, they have to stay awake and use the number of lives to remember how many times humans have failed.

Then the question is, who should be assigned to take on this inevitable death situation?
Yes, that's right.

Of course, it’s us little bitches who have no strength, no talent, no intelligence, and no looks.

but it does not matter!
There are so many sisters here, dozens of them. You can't just pick me, right? No way.

"0641." The trainer read out my number without emotion.

My heart skipped a beat and I had to take back what I said.

Fuck fairness!

"No! I don't want it!" I kept roaring and even biting people, struggling not to wear the duel disk to challenge God.

Unfortunately, I was only six years old at that time, and was forced to wear a duel disk and pushed into the realm of God.

What an honor.

I was more than six years old and could have sacrificed for all mankind.

Not surprisingly, even though I know nothing about dueling, the duel system still kindly helps me draw cards.

Just as both sides drew their cards.

The stone figure known as God flipped over his hand and said, "The card I drew is [Exodia]."

How unforgettable, my first duel in life.

It was over in less than a second.

The demonic flame cannon was blasted towards me, a six-year-old girl. Lord God, are you polite?

"Ah——" I instinctively closed my eyes, holding my head and screaming.

But the pain I imagined did not happen. An umbrella made of ice crystals wrapped me and blocked the fire.

In a trance, I saw a very beautiful woman.

She squatted down and hugged me gently, just like the mother in the fairy tale book.

The second impact of the fire wave knocked me away, but the plants around me suddenly formed a net to catch me, and I was able to survive.

If you survive a great disaster, you must have good fortune in the future!

After waking up, I ran and ran, and finally, I don’t know how I rushed into a wooden door.

Facts have proved that even if you survive a great disaster, there will always be another one.

After rushing through the wooden door, I came to a strange place. There was only a body of water there, surrounded by the vast darkness, and there was only one moon in the sky.

If I didn't feel the pain when pinched, I would have suspected that I was dead.

The trainers usually taught us that they would beat us to death if we didn’t obey, and scared us by saying that after we died we would go to the underworld, which was dark and there was nothing there.

Soon after, I felt that it was not the underworld.

There shouldn't be cats in the underworld.

I found a store in this strange place, and there was a fat cat in the store!

The cat opened the snack box in the store and gave me a bag of barbecued meat. I don't know if it was because he was hungry, or because the journey was too hard, or because the secret snacks had a good taste bud.

This is the most delicious thing I have ever eaten.

Unfortunately, the snacks were eaten up in less than a month, and Teacher Cat and I encountered a food problem.

However, I unexpectedly discovered that my body seemed to have mutated. As long as I drank water, all kinds of flowers and plants would continue to grow from my body.

This vitality even spreads to the surrounding area of ​​the store, and flowers and plants grow there.

There was plenty of water, a large area outside, so Teacher Cat and I filled our stomachs by eating flowers and plants.

I ate it for three years!

The real store manager is back!

Having worked in this store for three years, I almost thought I was the store manager.

When the store manager came back, he asked me, "What kind of card do you like? Let me help you choose a name."

I can't read, so I can only take out two cards.

[Red Rose Dragon] and [Six Flower Holy Tear Bouquet Snowdrop].

The store manager smiled and said to me, "From now on, you will be called Twin Flowers, one red and one blue."

From that day on, I had a name and was no longer called 0641.

The store manager left a good impression on me. He didn't scold me when I stole his snacks and even gave me a name.

What a good person!

Until - he asked someone to take me to eight in the morning.

Teacher Mao and I have been trapped in the store for three years, living day and night, and we no longer have a normal life schedule.

"You have class at 8am?!"

Yes, I was only 9 years old at that time, living a normal child's life.

It is the golden period for learning.

On my birthday, the store manager, no, Old Demon Bai thoughtfully gave me a copy of Three Hundred Tang Poems.

He said earnestly: "Childhood is incomplete without reciting poems."

Oh my god, Three Hundred Tang Poems!
At that moment, I suddenly felt that there was nothing wrong with being a numbered citizen.

I protest every time and don't want this damn thing.

Bai Lao Mo always said: "Wait until you beat me in a duel."

"Wait until I put together an invincible deck!" I said angrily.

About a year later, Old Demon Bai and Miss Lan's child was born.

What a cute baby!

That was my first time seeing a baby up close. It was so pink and tender that I really wanted to hold it and give it a kiss.

Almost two years passed.

Miss Siren's child was also born, a child of a human and a mermaid, with overall human features, but with cute fins on both sides of the head.

And at the beginning, you have to live in the bubble, and you will cry if you leave the bubble.

As for why I know so much, it’s because after the Twin Shadows disaster, Old Demon Bai and Miss Lan seemed to be very busy.

I took care of these two children for a long time.

I seem to have a talent for amusing children. Every time I conjure up flowers out of thin air, I can make these two little guys laugh.

I didn't feel irritated either.

For some reason, no matter how bad my mood is, my heart will melt the moment I hear them call out "Sister Hua".

Time flies.

The two little brats gradually grew up, one of them had the strongest deck, and the other even took the position of king.

They have all become very powerful and no longer call me Sister Hua. But I haven't changed much.

Still that little piece of shit.

Until the day before Bai Lao Mo went on a long journey, I still hadn't beaten him in a duel. No matter what game I played, Bai Lao Mo could always draw a card to clear the field. I hadn't won a single game in the past ten years, and I still had to memorize "Three Hundred Tang Poems".

I asked him many times: "Am I too weak, or are the plant race really that bad?"

"Neither." Bai Lao Mo's face was unusually serious. He said, "You know, I once had a grandfather, and he talked about me."

"It's not the deck that's bad, nor is it the duelist that's bad."

"Then why can't I win?" I was very depressed and confused.

Bai Lao Mo smiled with relief and said to me: "It's because -"

"You haven't found a reason why you have to win."

"When you have that reason, the deck will definitely respond to you."

"A reason to win." I repeated the word softly. "What is a reason to win?"

"Bet your life?"

Bai Lao Mo shook his head and said, "No, go find the answer yourself."

"If you're really confused, just recite some poetry."

"The grass is thick on the plain."

"One year after another."

The past scenes flashed through the twins' minds like a kaleidoscope.

She swung her hand violently and slapped the card onto the duel board: "Normal Summon—"

"[Mathematician]!"

An old scholar with a long white beard appeared from the summoning circle, looking very wise.

"[Mathematician]?" Hu Ji paused and said sarcastically, "You really are a card player."

The corners of Twin Flower's mouth curled up, and she raised her hand and said, "Activate the effect of [Mathematician] and send [Rosemary the Seafarer] from the deck to the graveyard."

If [Rosemary of the Seas] is sent to the Graveyard by an effect, send a Level 5 or lower Plant-Type monster from your Deck/Extra Deck to the Graveyard.

"I will send the Dandelion Lion to the cemetery."

A strange look crossed Hu Ji's face, and he curled his lips. "What a waste of time! Why don't you just use the [Mathematician] effect to send the [Dandelion Lion] down and be done with it? Why do you have to go through so much trouble and show off your skills to me? What a waste of time!"

She really couldn't understand what the point of giving an extra [Navigational Rosemary] was.

The corners of the twin flowers' mouths slightly raised, revealing a mysterious smile: "Don't worry, you will understand in a moment."

She paused, then continued, "Activate the effect of [Dandelion Lion] to Special Summon two [Wool Tokens]!"

Two soft, furry little creatures appeared out of thin air, like two tiny dandelions, floating gently on the field.

"Two [Cotton Wool Tokens] link!"

The two little guys turned into two rays of light, intertwined together, and formed a connecting circuit that shone with brilliance.

"Connection Summon!"

"Link2, [Aroma Seraph-Jasmine]!"

The light faded, and a girl in an emerald green dress appeared on the field. She had long, smooth hair, and a pair of white wings behind her gently flapped, emitting a faint fragrance.

"Link Jasmine to Spark!" Twin Flower raised her hand and shouted, "Activate the effect of [Jasmine], liberate [Mathematician], and special summon [Lone Spark] from the deck!"

"Activate the effect of [Lone Spark]!"

"Release a Plant-Type monster and Special Summon a Plant-Type monster from your Deck."

She tapped her fingertips, and the [Lone Spark] on the field turned into tiny specks of starlight and dissipated. New life was nurtured in the light. "I liberate [Lone Spark] and Special Summon it from the deck, [Lone Spark]!"

Another [Lone Fire Flower] blooms, and its fiery red petals sway gently in the wind.

"Then release [Lone Spark] and special summon [Lone Spark] from the deck."

The same scene happened again.

"Then release [Lonely Spark] and special summon [Growing Bulb] from the deck."

This time, what appeared was no longer a [lone spark], but a small bulb that exuded vitality.
