"Worm Apocalypse, Worm Barses, Worm Cartaros, Worm Dimicles..."

"Worm Hope, Worm Illidan, Worm Jatricules..."

"Worm Slink..."

Every time the Worm King reads a name, Tiera's heart skips a beat. After reading more than twenty names, the Worm King takes a deep breath, then exhales a long breath, then waves its four hands, roaring: "Worm Queen, Worm King, Worm Victory—"

"25 Worms perform Fusion!"

"Come, from the distant universe, our origin!"

"Fusion Summon!"

"Level 10, Worm Zero!"

Boom—

On the ground, countless Worms fly up, group together, and then turn into a huge, sticky ball of slime that looks like the sun.

Worm Zero, Level 10, Light attribute, Reptile-type, ATK,?

"Worm Zero's ATK becomes the value of the number of types of Fusion material monsters x 500."

Tiera opens her mouth slowly, watching this "bug ball" slowly grow larger, slowly condense, and finally cover the sky, just like the real sun.

Worm Zero, ATK: 12500.

"ATK 12500??" Tiera blinks her eyes, then lowers her head somewhat stiffly, looks at Tiancheng Guang, stretches out her left hand, and points upward instinctively, with only confusion in her eyes.

Aren't they weeds?

If I'm not wrong, these guys should be alien weeds wiped out by the "Next" planet environment modification machine I created. As a result, these weeds actually have such powerful things?

25 original monsters all fused!?

Isn't this several times higher than that Chimeratech Overdragon from before?

The Worm King slowly clenches its fists. Its tribesmen behind it see Worm Zero appear and can't help but start cheering.

This is the strongest and last barrier of their tribe—this is the ultimate Fusion card that can only be used when their entire tribe is present.

They are now being attacked by surrounding forces and only have this small piece of territory left, yet they can still stand tall, relying on this ultimate power.

"Worm Zero summoned by Fusion Summon gains the following effects based on Fusion materials.

2 or more types, once per turn, can Special Summon 1 Reptile-type monster from the graveyard in face-down defense position."

It stretches out its right hand and points to the graveyard: "Revive, my brother, Worm Victory."

Worm Zero slowly casts light. The light is like a transmitter in a flying saucer, reviving a Worm from the graveyard, silently lurking on the field.

"4 or more types: can banish 1 Reptile-type monster from your graveyard, send 1 monster on the field to the graveyard."

It slowly picks up a card from the graveyard: "Remove Worm Hope from the graveyard."

Then, it points to Asmodeus on the field.

Bang—

Under the light, the heroic demon hasn't exerted its strength yet, and it falls to the ground.

"6 or more types: once per turn, draw a card."

"Draw card."

Tiera swallows her saliva.

She looks at the huge monster and can't help but feel somewhat nervous.

Although she has a face-down card now, it's actually not a protective card. If she is attacked directly, then is she going to be killed in seconds—

"Tiera."

Tiera looks at Tiancheng Guang.

"Don't be nervous, monsters summoned by Future Fusion cannot attack in the first turn."

!

Oh—

Right, right, right.

She hurriedly wipes away the sweat that doesn't exist.

Almost forgot.

Seeing such a huge monster with such high ATK on the field, she, who has no dueling experience, was stunned for a moment. Now that she sees it, she feels much better.

In fact, Tiancheng Guang had long wanted to remind her.

Clearly, when she was sent to the graveyard by Worm Zero just now, she could have chosen to release herself and banish another monster from the opponent's graveyard.

As a result, she didn't react at all.

In fact, in Tiancheng Guang's view, Tiera's current state is actually very strange.

"What's wrong with you?" He asks curiously.

What's wrong?

Tiera hears Tiancheng Guang's question and hesitates for a moment.

Dozens of "possibilities" Tiancheng Guang asked flashed through her mind, and then, she found the problem.

She moves her right hand.

Indeed, her state of mind seems somewhat terrible.

She looks up at the surroundings.

This dimension... is not her planet.

However—this dimension, in terms of environment, is exactly 1:1 the appearance of the planet when she was revived.

Long years have passed, and even she herself has turned into a spirit body, completely losing the possibility of reviving with a physical body, and can only cooperate with Tiancheng Guang, surviving in the form of a card spirit and reviving in the form of a monster god.

She, who came to this world, was too excited, too excited.

The world is no longer the world she is familiar with.

Perhaps these Worms in front of her were weeds she could deal with at will before she died.

But even weeds, if their belief is strong enough, can defeat gods.

This is the possibility that dueling gives to the weak.

Although... the other party is an invader, the other party is not the "invader" itself, but a historical phantom after the invader died.

She taps her head gently.

To become the "god" of these historical phantoms, one must use their way.

Dueling, belief.

The weakest race has the strength to summon a 12,000 ATK high-level Fusion Monster in one turn. My planet is really blooming with a hundred flowers...

But that's even better.

The Worm King looks at the hand, sets a face-down card on the field, and then declares the end of the turn.

"Then, at this moment, I activate the Continuous Trap card.

Blazing—Activate."

A trap card is slowly flipped open.

Blazing Infernoid.

"My turn, draw card." Tiera draws a card.

"At this moment, which is the Preparation Phase, the divine power of Blazing will be activated. Target one Infernoid monster in your banished state. Return that card to the graveyard."

"Beelzebul, reincarnation."

Looking at Tiera's operation, the Worm King also barely knew the situation and operation of the Infernoid deck.

"Banish Beelzebul from the graveyard. Special Summon in Defense Position, Lucifuge."

The black demon folds its wings and descends in front of Tiera.

Infernoid Lucifuge, Level 3, Fire attribute, Fiend-type, DEF 0.

Tiera looks at Lucifuge on the field and calculates in her heart.

Honestly, she must admit one thing.

That is, at the beginning of the duel, she was a bit too careless and looked down on her opponent too much.

The other party is not an "alien bug," but a "real spirit," but when dueling, she didn't put her mind to it at all.

Otherwise, with her suppression of the opponent's power, she dares to guarantee that the opponent's high-star monsters in hand wouldn't even be able to be summoned.

But—

Precisely because of this carelessness, she actually figured out more things.

If even dueling has to be a pure comparison of power, wouldn't it be the same as that cosmic god?

She doesn't want to lose a card game and lose face, making Tiancheng Guang laugh at her, or simply end the cooperation.

"Worms, you unite together, gather all your strength together, just to survive. So, you also regard us as enemies, as people who invaded your territory, right?"

The Worm King didn't expect her to have the leisure to ask at this time, and immediately said: "Of course, could it be that you appeared here abruptly and took the initiative to duel, could it be for peace?"

"Stupid." Tiera continues, "I am God, the Creator God, the origin of everything, the root of this dimension—I have no interest in your current ecology."

The blue flames in her eyes burn slowly, not violently, nor hot: "The human beside me is named Tiancheng Guang, he is a human duelist who pursues ultimate Fusion."

"We won't ask you for anything, but are looking for 【cooperation】, looking for common progress."

She says: "If you really fear war, really yearn for a peaceful life, then, at worst, rule this dimension with me, defeat all spirit tribes—

It's just being the world's public enemy again."

Tiancheng Guang is very surprised.

He didn't expect Tiera to be able to say such things.

Although, the basic idea hasn't actually changed.

Tiera just wants to beat all the spirits, collect cards for herself by the way, and make this world more pleasing to her eyes.

She doesn't care about other things in the process at all.

But...

"Hmph... just by you?" The Worm King doesn't trust Tiera at all.

Even those words related to Tiancheng Guang, it didn't believe at all.

Its mind has been filled with race continuation and chaotic wars, and it doesn't believe in any foreign race at all.

"After I win, you will know."

"Shameless—"

"Lucifuge's effect, once per turn, target 1 monster on the field. Destroy that monster. This turn, Lucifuge cannot attack."

Tiera points to the huge bug ball in the sky casually.

After watching the duel for so long, Tiancheng Guang also told her a lot of knowledge. After calming down, she figured out the flaws of Worm Zero instantly.

No matter how high the ATK is, without destruction resistance like Winda or Thunder Dragon Colossus, wouldn't it still be destroyed by an ordinary monster card?

"Quick-Play Spell, My Body as a Shield!"

The Worm King howls and rushes forward, hitting Lucifuge with its body.

"Pay 1500 LP to negate and destroy the effect of a card that destroys monsters on the field."

Worm King, LP: 4000 -> 2500.

Bang—Lucifuge is smashed to pieces by the Worm King alive.

"Then—don't blame me, mortal. Decision, activate!"

Boom boom boom—

Scorching blue flames rise behind Tiera, and a huge phantom like a tree rises in the sky.

The huge image is even bigger than Worm Zero covering the sky. Some spirits of other races who were originally watching from afar are also scared to retreat immediately after seeing this phantom, and hurriedly report to the high-level spirits of their tribe.

The Worm King looks at the phantom blankly.

Tiera opens her hands. Although her figure is small, she is like a high mountain in front of the Worm King, emitting an indescribable... terror.

Continuous Spell, Infernoid Decision.

"If there are no monsters on your field or only Fiend-type monsters, you can choose one of its effects to activate.

Effect 1, return a banished Infernoid monster to the hand—

Banish Satan, Beelzebul, activate again!"

A strange demon like a fly banishes Satan from the graveyard and appears on the field.

Infernoid Beelzebul, Level 2, Fire attribute, DEF 2000.

"Beelzebul's effect, once per turn, target 1 face-up card on the opponent's field. Return that card to the hand."

"I will not destroy your 【hope】, your 【fortress】."

"I am destruction, I am death, I am—reincarnation, return to the place where you started, Worm Zero."

The Worm King watches the huge "mother star" slowly turn into bubbles and return to the Extra Deck, and can't help but stomp on the ground angrily with its legs.

"Again and again, why, you guys are always so easy to turn our efforts into bubbles."

It seems that Worms are having a very bad time in the DT spirit dimension.

There are too many "experts" here.

"No, mortal. This is the opportunity dueling gives you.

If you don't duel, how can you face me calmly?"

The Worm King listens to Tiera's words, doesn't speak, but has no way to refute.

It can feel it.

The guy in front of it is simply some terrifying existence wearing the skin of Winda.

If it really compares power purely, it has no chance at all.

Tiera stuffs a card into the face-down zone.

"It is precisely because dueling gave you the opportunity, dueling gave you the possibility. So, you were able to hold onto this last pure land, weren't you?" Tiera opens her mouth calmly, "And now, the 【reward】 you have waited for after long persistence has already appeared in front of you."

Reward?

It looks at Tiera and Tiancheng Guang again.

Long-term hardships, pressure from countless powerful races, failures in countless duels, but it didn't give up, for itself, for the younger generation, for the tribe.

It has persisted until now...

It cannot trust any guy!

It cannot lose!

"My turn, draw card!"

"Blazing's effect, in your turn's Preparation Phase, I can add an Infernoid from the graveyard to my hand. Lucifuge, reload."

Lucifuge! That demon that can directly destroy monsters!

The Worm King's face is not very good.

However, it doesn't matter, as long as it wins this turn!

"I want to flip Worm Victory on the field!"

"Come, my brother!!"

Under its call, a crimson six-armed Worm warrior flies out from the Worm tribe and roars to the sky: "Don't listen to her, King, we will definitely be able to hold on!"

Worm Victory, Level 7, Light attribute, Reptile-type, ATK 0.

"When Worm Victory is flipped, destroy all monsters on the field except 【Worm】!"

"Victory Claw!"

Worm Victory rushes in front of Beelzebul, grabs the demon with six claws, and scraps it.

"Then—Worm Victory's ATK increases by the number of Reptile-type monsters with 【Worm】 in their name in the graveyard x 500!"

The Worm King reaches forward and points to Tiera: "Now, there are 23 Worm kin in my graveyard! So, Worm Victory's ATK rises to 11500!"

"Roar!!!"

Worm Victory, ATK: 0 -> 11500.

"This is the tactic we rely on to survive!"

The Worms' strategy is very simple: use Worm Zero's revival ability to directly revive Worm Victory, then use Worm Zero's effect that can send the opponent's monsters to the graveyard without limit, clear the opponent, wait for the opportunity, rely on Worm Zero to survive one turn, and finally use Worm Victory for a one-turn kill.

11,000 ATK, even if it's a stronger spirit, it will still lose if attacked directly!

Moreover, in the next turn, Lucifuge will appear directly!

"Battle, Worm Victory attacks directly, get back to your territory—"

"Naive!"

Tiera flips the face-down card back.

"I have already seen your behavior of skyrocketing ATK." Tiera says, "Pale Fire, activate!"

The trap card flips open slowly.

Pale Fire Infernoid.

"Special Summon 1 Infernoid monster from your hand, ignoring summoning conditions."

"Belphegor, emergency dispatch!"

She brushes out a card and throws it on the field with a slap.

Infernoid Belphegor, Level 6, Fire attribute, Fiend-type, DEF 0.

The Infernoid demon reaching this level is already wearing gorgeous armor, its wings have been decorated, and its tubes are as bright as gold, very beautiful.

This card, and the "Baal" currently being manufactured, are cards Tiancheng Guang helped Tiera re-manufacture during this time. Because of having "Infernoid Tiera" and Tiancheng Guang having been studying "purification" during this time, the manufacturing difficulty is much smaller than imagined.

"How could it be—" Worm Victory looks at the purple demon that appeared abruptly in front of it, and the whole person feels like falling into an ice cellar.

If it can't end in this turn, if it is solved in the next turn, there will only be crooked melons and cracked dates left in the King's deck—

And two Continuous Spells and Continuous Traps with Infernoid can let those monsters be replaced every turn...

"...... Battle, Worm Victory attacks Belphegor!"

Worm Victory grits its teeth, finally roars with all its might, and attacks Belphegor.

Boom—

Belphegor disappears in response.

"Turn... end."

"Then, the operation I'm going to perform, you should know it all."

"My turn, Blazing activate—Satan, reincarnation."

She puts the banished Satan back into the graveyard again.

"Banish Satan, Special Summon, Lucifuge."

"Lucifuge's effect, once per turn, target 1 monster on the field. Destroy that monster."

"However, this turn, your Lucifuge cannot attack either!"

"Doesn't matter. Asmodeus, banish Beelzebul, Belphegor from the graveyard. Special Summon."

The golden-armored demon slowly manifests its true body. The golden armor damaged by Worm Zero on its body is automatically repaired, slowly becoming full of life, and turning into that mechanical demon appearance again.

Infernoid Asmodeus, Level 5, Fire attribute, Fiend-type, ATK 2200.

"ATK 2200..."

I still have 300 LP!

The Worm King calculates secretly.

Persist, as long as I can persist through this turn.

If I'm lucky enough to draw 【Evil Dragon Ananta】 in the next turn, I can Special Summon a monster with over 10,000 ATK again.

"Stupid mortal. Up to now, haven't you figured it out yet?"

Huh?

"You designed a lot to protect the race, to continue the race, to become a barrier. However, what supports your belief is only the purpose, not the goal.

To me, dueling is reincarnation.

Then what about for you?"

"Listen carefully to the teachings of God."

"Blazing, operate again!"

What!?

"If there are no monsters on your field or only Fiend-type monsters, banish the Blazing that wasn't sent to the graveyard this turn. Target up to 11 non-same-name Infernoid monsters in your banished state. Return those monsters to the graveyard."

!!!

There are 3 banished monsters—

"Satan, Beelzebul, Belphegor, reincarnate again. Then..."

"Belphegor, banish Satan, Beelzebul, activate immediately!"

Ding ding ding ding ding ding—

Those armors and machines torn apart by Worm Victory rise from the ground, a demon's ghost rises from the graveyard, and then, those armors are loaded onto its body. Slowly, the soul of this demon also returns to its place.

It opens its bright red eyes, spreads its wings, and flicks its tail, but it doesn't look painful at all, as if death is not a big deal at all.

Infernoid Belphegor, Level 6, Fire attribute, Fiend-type, ATK 2400.

2400 and 2200!

"Battle. Worm King."

Two demons fly out from Tiera's side, one left and one right, and slash at the Worm King.

Seeing this, the Worm King opens both mouths wide, only feeling that it really saw a god.

Boom—

Worm King, LP: 2500 -> 0.

The Worm King is knocked away by the impact and falls to the ground.

"King!"

"King—"

"Big brother!"

A group of Worms hurriedly protects the Worm King. The Worm Queen even sobs in a low voice: "Everyone has worked very hard, up to now, it's time to say goodbye—"

"Eh! I'm not dead!"

"Wow?"

"Eh—"

"Could it be!"

It's all true!

Tiera hugs her arms gently, looks at Tiancheng Guang, and even pouts slightly.

Tiancheng Guang can't help but laugh, then thinks for a while, raises his hand, and makes a 2.

"Yeah?" Tiera subconsciously follows Tiancheng Guang's action, stretches out two fingers to Tiancheng Guang, thinking it's a celebration.

But on second thought, she suddenly realizes some details.

Wrong—

This seems to mean that when she was clearing the field by Worm Zero and Worm Victory, she didn't use Infernoid to banish the opponent's graveyard cards.

So it's—2???

A drop of cold sweat drips from her forehead.

Tiancheng Guang chuckles, not saying it directly.

Although the win wasn't perfect, it's a win nonetheless.

Compared to the last duel, only the first turn was relatively nervous. When seeing over 10,000 ATK again, Tiera was actually very calm.

However—

Although she won, but... this weakest force has such strength.

The DT world is really dancing with demons no matter when.

No wonder that "black hand behind the scenes who split the spirit world" came to the DT dimension for a turn and left.
