Yu-Gi-Oh!, the Roar of the Weak

Chapter 164 Sudden Change! Situation Analysis!

Tie Nanzhe was somewhat shocked by this scene. After a moment, he quickly came to his senses and said, "That's...that's shocking! Player Di Xing defeated an opponent with a Fire-attribute monster, triggering the Fire-attribute kill bonus, which reduces the total attack power of all monsters on his field by 4000 and gives one of his monsters another chance to attack."

Di Xing looked at Tian Tong, whose attack power he possessed, and Tian Tong looked back at him; both of them smiled slightly.

"Holy crap! She has attack power! If we reduce it by 4000 and attack again, she can kill seven people in one hit! We only have five!" Masked Man B shouted in despair.

"I'll reduce Tian Tong's attack power by 4000 and attack the masked man B directly."

Di Xing declared, but Tian Tong did not attack. Instead, she raised her small hand and calmly directed the giant sword behind her to slowly move in front of her. Then, some fiery energy flew out from Tian Tong's small hand and poured into the giant sword.

Kurikara-dō ATK:→

Di Xing looked at Tian Tong with perfect understanding and continued his declaration.

"I'll reduce Tendo's attack power by another 4000 and then attack the masked man C directly."

Another portion of the fire energy entered the greatsword.

Kurikara-dō ATK:→

"Decrease by another 4000, then launch a direct attack on masked man D."

Kurikara-dō ATK:→

"Reduce damage by 4000, directly attack masked man E"

Kurikara-dō ATK:→

After Di Xing finished his declaration, Tian Tong's attack power was still considerable, terrifying indeed.

Tian Tong began to wield his greatsword, sweeping it towards the remaining four people.

The four watched in horror as the terrifying giant sword, wreathed in flames, swept across the land, leaving them no escape. In an instant, they were engulfed in a sea of ​​fire.

"That was absolutely brilliant, victor Di Xing!"

Just as Tie Nanzhe was happily announcing Di Xing's victory

"Boom!!!" A loud explosion echoed from afar. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a gigantic mechanical dragon, its body crackling with pink lightning, slowly rising from the direction of the Iron Wasteland. The reactor on its chest emitted a terrifying light.

"An ancient mechanical thermonuclear dragon!! What happened? Did Nami and Miss Liu fail?" Di Xing exclaimed in shock, ignoring his injuries.

Di Xing hurriedly dragged his heavily injured body and began moving towards the Iron Wasteland.

But Tiantong blocked his way. "No, you can't go there. You were just seriously injured, almost to the point of death. If you go to fight now, you will really die!"

"Thank you, Tendo, but I have to go there."

Tian Tong stamped his foot in frustration, "Why are you so stubborn? I finally have such an interesting follower, I don't want you to die so easily!"

But Di Xing only took a weak step forward, hugged Tian Tong, and stroked the back of her hair to comfort her, "I'm sorry, Tian Tong, but my friends are there, and I have to go help them."

Tian Tong quickly pushed Di Xing away, her little face slightly flushed. "Although what you said was pretty cool, no means no, I won't..."

Just as Tiantong raised her hand, preparing to forcibly knock Dixing unconscious, Leixi appeared. She placed her hand on Tiantong's shoulder and shook her head at her.

Tian Tong stared at Lei Xi in shock. "Lei Xi, you too? Really, I'm not going to care about you anymore. Just go ahead, and don't blame me if you die there."

Tian Tong haughtily berated the two of them, then transformed into a streak of red light and flew back to Di Xing's deck.

Lei Xi muttered under her breath, "They said they wouldn't care about us, but they still hid in the card and went with us, didn't they?"

At this moment, Ai Xiao and the others also arrived on the stage. "Di Xing, are you alright?"

Di Xing said weakly, "I'm alright, I won't die for now. We must get to the Scrap Iron Wasteland immediately."

"But what about your health?" Ai Xiao said worriedly.

"We'll go," Li Fei Hua Yue said decisively. "Are you going to act recklessly again? Just like when we first met. This time, I can't let you be willful."

"If I hadn't done that last time, we would both be dead," Di Xing complained, though he was very weak.

Lunia then arrived beside Dixing. She had chosen to fight two more 1-on-1 matches, so she quickly ended the battle.

"Lifei Huayue is right. Leave this to us. You should go back and receive treatment as soon as possible."

Di Xing wanted to say something, but the movement aggravated his wounds, causing him to cough violently. The burns on his body stung intensely.

At that moment, the Snow Maiden from his deck materialized, hugged Di Xing, and pressed her small face against Di Xing's burned area. Di Xing immediately felt much better.

"Thank you, Demon Scheme Snow Woman."

The Snow Maiden with the Ghostly Scheme raised her small face and nodded, then continued to cling to Di Xing.

"Everyone, let's hear what Di Xing has to say," Vivian said calmly, wanting to hear Di Xing's thoughts.

Di Xing nodded in gratitude.

"Based on the keywords in the Immortal Chronicles, I roughly guessed Dark Mech's target. The legacy of the Scrap Metal Zone should be the Ancient Mech deck, so I devised a plan with Miss Liu Tiaowu."

"My plan is to have Nami follow Immortal Dao back to the Scrap Iron Wasteland when he returns, in order to determine the true purpose of the Dark Machines and stop them before their plan succeeds. Just in case, I have also notified Miss Liu Tiaowu to lead some of the elites from the Scrap Iron District to assist Nami."

"When the selection competition started, I confirmed with District Chief Tie Nanzhe that Miss Liu Tiaowu had successfully reunited with Nami."

"Our plan should have been flawless, but now that the ancient mechanical thermonuclear dragon has been resurrected, it means that Nami and Miss Liu Tiaowu have both failed."

"We've deployed so many troops; even if that so-called master craftsman of the Dark Machines came, they wouldn't be able to win easily."

"Therefore, they have very likely joined forces with at least one of the Hexagram families this time."

At this moment, District Chief Tie Nanzhe also came over and said with a serious expression, "I just received a request for help from Secretary Liu Tiaowu. Perhaps due to the time constraints, her request for help did not contain any other information."

Di Xing nodded. "It seems that the Taylor family is the one working with the underground network."

"What?" the women exclaimed in surprise. "The Taylor family, the strongest family in the Hexagram? How do you know it's them?"

District Chief Tie Nanzhe pondered for a moment, then said, "I don't think it's the Taylor family. Di Xing, you might not know this, but Miss Nami's full name is..."

“Dina Mika Taylor, right? I already knew that, and that's why I was certain that someone from the Taylor family was among the attackers.”

"Nami has severed ties with her family, and her family has been sending people to try and bring her back."

"I see. I was wondering why the Taylor family's eldest daughter would come to our area. I thought it was a Taylor family conspiracy. I was even thinking of reminding you about it."

“Nami is very strong. She should have at least had time to send a distress signal, but we didn’t receive any, which proves that she didn’t want to send one at all. Although Nami is very proud, she also trusts her companions, so she shouldn’t do something like this. There’s only one explanation: she was facing the Taylor family, and she didn’t want us to encounter them, as that would expose the identity she’s been trying to hide and escape.”

"So I have to go there. Waiting for us there aren't only the master craftsman of the Dark Machines, but also the Taylor family, the head of the Hexagram family. We must go together to have any chance of rescuing Nami and Miss Liu Dancing. And... the Immortal Chronicles."

"She was just being used by the master craftsman of the Dark Machines; we should rescue her."

"But, Dixing-onii-chan, you clearly told her last night not to go!"

Unbeknownst to them, Ruan Nuo quietly appeared behind the group.
