Chapter 769

God's Strike!

The Wicked Avatar transformed into the posture of an angel, but although the form changed, the body was still that pitch-black form. The giant hammer in its hand was wrapped in ominous black mist, and the hammerhead was so large it seemed to block the sky and sun.

The hammer of the Angel of Force slammed down, but what erupted was pure Wicked God power. The pitch-black hammer fell in the enclosed dueling field, and the whole world seemed to be screaming.

All sounds disappeared, as if all noises were swallowed by boundless darkness, leaving behind suffocating silence. Then the light also disappeared, and the blood-colored sky seemed to be splashed with ink.

A crisp cracking sound, the virtual space disintegrated, just like a shattered mirror, each flying fragment seemed to reflect a world that was being destroyed, refracting the final light.

Paradox couldn't feel his body anymore. He rose into the air uncontrollably, his body floating lightly in the air. At first, he felt severe pain, as if countless sharp blades were hidden in the darkness that swallowed his body, cutting him into thousands of pieces, but that was only for a moment. Soon he even lost his senses, as if his body didn't belong to him.

Darkness surged like a tide, the dueling field, the sky, and the earth, the whole world disappeared as if erased by an eraser. Virtual data streams struggled in the darkness, and through those fragments before they dissipated, he seemed to see burning worlds in each fragment in a trance.

Broken ruins, like a world after destruction. He and his last companions stood on the wreckage of the extinct human civilization, swearing to save everything and turn the tide.

Yes, he had sworn to reverse the future, and for this, he was willing to bear the sins of an entire world. But even so, he failed.

Many times, duelists are indeed idealistic; will and belief, firm goals, these can be transformed into power to let you go further, to make you feel that you are omnipotent.

But that is just an illusion after all.

Belief may indeed allow people to burst out with twelve times the power, but there is an upper limit after all. Not everyone is a crab-head, not everyone is a protagonist. Sometimes the gap in strength is a chasm, and sometimes power is just despairing.

Just like now.

At the last moment before falling, Paradox tried his best to look up, looking at the Wicked God that had changed from an angel back to a black sun, that terrifying posture looking down from above, looking at the boy who controlled the Wicked God, his gaze became dazed for a moment.

With his consciousness blurred, he felt for a moment that the boy and the Wicked God behind him had merged into one. So evil, so powerful, and so terrifying. The figure overlapped with the apocalypse in his memory for a moment, as if the future had been destroyed by this Wicked God.

Even the research institute side, which was on the same side as Fujiki You Xuan, was silent at this time.

"Wicked... Wicked God..."

Someone licked their lips and said with a dry throat.

When Fujiki You Xuan fought the three Wicked Gods before, the battlefield was in the Fairy Realm, and it was a sealed-off place. Except for the few of them who experienced it personally and the fairies present, the outside world knew nothing about that battle.

So even Mokuba and the personnel inside the Kaiba Corporation were seeing the descent of the Wicked God with their own eyes for the first time. Of course, it was through a screen. But even looking at that huge figure through the screen, everyone couldn't help but feel their hands and feet go cold, as if their souls were being gripped.

The power of gods is indeed quite metaphysical. During the first generation Duel City, Yugi controlled Slifer the Sky Dragon and Kaiba's Obelisk the Tormentor to snipe each other in the Sky Arena, and the whole duel was broadcast live in the city.

But the duel between the two gods was too intense, and the terrifying divine power was stimulated, and even the live broadcast electronic screens, televisions, and other carriers exploded on the spot. Because of this, the audience at that time could not see the result of the duel live, and only after the Kaiba Corporation released the recorded discs could they see the whole process of the later duel.

The power of gods cannot be measured by common sense, and ordinary people may have adverse reactions even if they see the posture of gods indirectly. It doesn't even necessarily require a specific image; even the simple, abstract line drawings of gods carved on ancient Egyptian stone tablets might bring people a sense of trembling.

And this generally refers to the Egyptian Gods. Although the Egyptian Gods have terrifying divine power, as long as they are not offended, they generally do not exert influence on ordinary people. In contrast, the power of the Wicked Gods is more violent, the divine power is not restrained at all, and the impact on people is more intense.

"That guy Fujiki You Xuan can actually control even the Wicked God," Mokuba muttered.

Compared to others, Mokuba had a deeper impression of the Wicked Gods. He still remembered the events of that year, when the three Wicked Gods manipulated Nightshroud to take away their entire Kaiba Corporation, locking him and his brother outside the door. Later, his brother went to fight the Wicked God, and then suffered a rare crushing defeat in his dueling career. It was such a Wicked God, and that guy Fujiki You Xuan actually subdued it...

Mokuba couldn't help but sigh: "This guy is getting more and more powerful."

Is Paradox weak?

Mokuba hasn't seen the theatrical version like Fujiki You Xuan, knowing that this person has the title of "the bravest villain in history." He doesn't recognize the other party, but in his view, this person is quite powerful.

Casually jumping out with big monsters with 4000-5000 ATK, all using legendary fairies from various eras, not even letting go of his brother's Blue-Eyes. Such a deck itself is already beyond common sense in this era.

Gathering the power of so many legendary fairies is already incredible, and his performance just now was not bad, at least in Mokuba's view.

Being suppressed by Fujiki You Xuan like that continuously, being subjected to layers of restrictions, not giving up hope even in a desperate situation, stubbornly finding opportunities to counterattack...

This guy is strong.

Whether it is his strength as a duelist, the power of his deck, the blessing of fairies, or even his belief and will, they are all quite powerful.

But it seems it didn't help.

At least what Mokuba saw in this duel was the stubborn struggle of a duelist, an unyielding fighter trying his best, using all his skills, wishing he could burn out all his beliefs...

And then still losing to the evil demon god.

Sometimes the world is so cruel, reality will not change because of your will. If you can't beat them, you can't beat them; sometimes light is destined to be swallowed by darkness.

!

It was originally a Shadow Game, and he was ridden by the highest-level Wicked God like The Wicked Avatar with over 10,000 ATK. Logically speaking, even if there were Life Points left, this shot would be enough to turn a person into a mosaic.

But after a darkness before Paradox's eyes, he soon felt his body gradually regain sensation. Every cell in his body was in severe pain, but his consciousness regained clarity.

Am I still alive?

After realizing this, he tried his best to adjust his breathing, sat up, and looked at Fujiki You Xuan with some vigilance and some confusion in his eyes.

"Why?"

Fujiki You Xuan tilted his head: "What?"

"... You intentionally held back," Paradox said in a low voice. "Why?"

"What's the reason for this?"

Fujiki You Xuan said as a matter of course.

"Or rather, why should I kill you? Do we have a grudge?"

Paradox: "..."
