Chapter 1. Fusion + Girl? That's it!
"Stop hitting them! Please, please stop hitting them!"
"You can't kill him like that."
Two boys in the jungle start a monster duel over a woman.
The girl standing nearby was so anxious she was pacing around in circles.
The first sentence was spoken by the girl.
The second sentence was added by Youfeng while he was eating melons in the distance.
Youfeng looked up and gazed at the bizarre sky through the gaps in the tree canopy, which was being stirred up by the monster's air currents.
A massive shadow swept by—someone rode a colossal western dragon covered in scales, letting out a long, drawn-out roar.
On the other side, someone was also riding a flying sword, their clothes fluttering, traveling through the air at an astonishing speed.
"This world is outrageous."
A low sigh escaped from his lips, carrying the absurdity unique to time travelers.
He has been in this world called Duel Continent for a full week now.
At first, he thought it was a fantasy epic world where swords and magic intertwined.
But reality is far more absurd than imagined.
There were no chanted incantations, no condensed fighting spirit here.
All combat power originates from the small duel disk and cards in his hand.
It is a world where duels reign supreme.
That's right, it's Yu-Gi-Oh! Monster Duel!
Spirits are no longer just vague legends, but partners that can be clearly summoned and materialized through the power of cards, thus interfering with reality.
Battles, construction, transportation, even daily life... the power of the elves permeates every corner.
This has long surpassed the pure card table duels in the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime that I remember, and has evolved into a bizarre yet incredibly real social form built on the rules of duels.
That's absolutely outrageous.
What's even more outrageous is the layout of this continent.
It is said that hundreds of years ago, a cataclysmic event swept across the eastern continent, wiping out glorious civilizations and countless powerful heritages.
The surviving Easterners were displaced and flocked to the relatively stable West.
Over the years, Western power has grown stronger and stronger, gradually fostering a sense of superiority over the East.
Here, it is several times more difficult for an Easterner to stand out than for a Westerner, unless they possess overwhelming strength.
However, the catastrophe severed the inheritance, and the West deliberately blocked the East from accessing core tactics and knowledge, resulting in an increasing scarcity of strong individuals in the East, creating a near-desperate cycle.
【Ding--】
[The "Heaven Rewards Diligence" duel system is activated.]
A crisp, cold electronic notification sound, carrying an absolute sense of order, rang out without warning in the deepest part of Youfeng's consciousness.
Is the "Heaven Rewards Diligence" duel system activated?
You Feng's heart skipped a beat. Before he could think it through, a massive flow of information, like a floodgate opened, instantly flooded into his mind!
Oh no, I need to start using my brain.
Simple, cold, and futuristic lines outlined an interface he was extremely familiar with—Master Duel!
Welcome to the world of Master Duel!
This system has been successfully linked to you.
You can exchange Duel Points (DP) for any card from the entire card pool.
Duels are the only way to obtain DP.
Is it bound to a Master Duel?
Goodness, does that mean it's in the entire card pool?
Isn't this a windfall?
With a slight thought, he tried clicking on it.
The light screens switch smoothly.
Deck building area, card shop.
All the familiar modules were clearly visible, radiating an alluring glow.
The most striking thing is the enormous icon in the corner, which is currently grayed out – the entire card pool!
Theoretically, it contains all the Yu-Gi-Oh! cards he knows—an ultimate treasure trove for duelists!
It is indeed the full card pool, but it needs to be activated.
In theory, he can exchange any card as long as he has enough DP.
Moreover, Youfeng discovered that what appeared to be a duel between masters was actually quite different.
There is only one interface like this, but the process of changing the card is different.
"System, are there any must-play decks? Recommend one to me."
Yes, bro, yes, there are decks that idiots play.
[New Player Gift: A random starting deck.]
Please select your initial deck preference.
Youfeng: "?"
Why are you suddenly swearing?
Below the light screen, seven option buttons, each shimmering with a different attribute of light, instantly appeared neatly arranged:
【I. Disruption and Synchronization】
[II. Girl, Fusion]
3. Flames, Excessive Intake
[IV. Recreation and Pendulum]
[V. Deep Sea, Connection]
VI. Soul and Ritual
7. Being a dog, in the underworld
You Feng's gaze lingered on the underworld for half a second, his lips twitching: "What did the underworld do to you? Why is your resentment so strong?"
But despite his complaints, his gaze almost instinctively and firmly locked onto the second option.
A young girl? Fusion?
These two keywords were like two thunderbolts, instantly shattering the floodgates of his memory! A name, a deck that had been synonymous with "invincible" in the hearts of countless duelists, rushed into his mind with a world-destroying aura.
A nation of tearful lamentations!
That terrifying being that possesses self-fusion, constant shifting, and resource operation like a perpetual motion machine, capable of driving both opponents and oneself to mental exhaustion! You start with it?
What's there to fear about merging worldviews? We'll slay gods and Buddhas alike! We'll take off right here!
"Is that even a question?!" A wave of overwhelming joy engulfed Youfeng, his lips curling into an uncontrollable, wild grin, his eyes gleaming with a fanatical light that seemed to be the answer to his problem.
"Definitely choose Meika! Prey Meika! Unbeatable! Option two!!"
The [Girl, Fusion] button on the light screen instantly erupted with a dazzling pink-purple fusion vortex of light, the blinding light almost completely engulfing Youfeng's consciousness and vision.
[Selection confirmed! Tendency: Girl, Fusion.]
[Deck generation in progress...]
[Congratulations! You have obtained the Fusion Theme Deck: Moonlight Maiden!]
[Key Takeaway: The more spectacular your performance in duels, and the more difficult the opponents you defeat, the greater the Duel Points (DP) rewards you'll receive! Fight hard, future King of Duels!]
"Yue...Moonlight Girl?!"
The wild and unrestrained smile on You Feng's face froze completely, as if instantly frozen in cement.
Moonlight Girl? Immediately, images of beast warrior/warrior girls dressed in gorgeous bodysuits, wielding claws or ribbons, modeled after "cats" and "dancers," specializing in violent direct attacks and graveyard fusion immediately popped into my mind.
The card is indeed stylish and beautiful, the positioning is also decent, and the operation is simple and straightforward...
Indeed, she is both a young girl and a fusion.
All right...
He took a deep breath, suppressing his immense disappointment. At least it was a decent, playable fusion deck; it was better than starting with a bunch of ordinary cards or some meaningless junk cards.
With a hint of resentment and acceptance, his fingers deftly parted the edge of the deck, quickly scanning the core cards: Moonlight Purple Butterfly, Moonlight Yellow Weasel, Moonlight Dancing Leopard Princess, Moonlight Fusion... Hmm, the basic components are all there, and the strength is indeed decent in the early stages of the game.
"Wandering Wind—!!"
