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

Chapter 307 The 7th Magic Bullet

The enormous stone tablet hidden beneath the Divine Star Tree began to sink further, finally revealing its very root—the last point of matter concealed beneath the gnarled roots of the Divine Star Tree—materialism.

“You can feel honored… beep… Jane the Magic Bullet, I wasn’t planning on using it, but you’re powerful enough for me to use it,” Dark Roberts let out a chilling laugh. “… crackle… I’ll offer the freezing of the hull as a sacrifice.”

"The end of the Reverse Kabbalah Tree of Life, number 10I, the rainbow-colored sword of the Reverse God! Unfurl it and bring endless fury to the enemy. Lilith's sister, true name Nama, superior summon, level 10, the hidden shell killer, Materialism!"

A rainbow-colored giant sword descended from the sky, hovering in the air. Four enormous mechanical legs then extended from it, and the strongest hull silently suspended in mid-air. The sheer size and oppressive presence of the sword caused almost everyone present to hold their breath.

"Beep... Materialism is unaffected by the effects of Spell & Trap Cards, nor by the effects activated by monsters of lower level than itself, and as long as it is on the field, Special Summoned monsters lose 500 ATK and DEF."

Oh no! This guy didn't even bother checking Materialism at first because he thought it was useless. This is terrible! The only way for the entire Magic Bullet family to pass Materialism is with an Endless Endorphin.

"Crack... I must say, you all surprise me, but the Shadow Guards can't afford to fail twice," Dark Roberts chuckled sinisterly. "Materialism!"

Following its command, Materialism shone with colorful light, and an invisible, chilling force instantly enveloped the entire Scrap Metal Plaza. Time seemed to freeze, and the next second, all the materialized card spirits on the field vanished. Even the Chaos Knight possession on Gao Yanji was forcibly dispelled, causing him to quickly crouch down and cover his face in fright.

"W-What happened?"

At the same time, more guards emerged from the shadows.

"Looks like they're quite well-prepared this time." Gao Yan Er slowly stood up. At this moment, he was wearing the mask of the first Kamen Rider. He then took out the mouthpiece from his pocket and manually put it on.

"We have no choice but to fight this battle with our backs against the wall!"

Having no other option, Di Xing and his companions resorted to physical combat. However, Lunya had run out of ammunition. Although Gao Yan'er possessed exceptional martial arts skills, he was no match for the sheer number of opponents. While Di Xing had secretly trained his body, he was only slightly stronger than an average person. As for Ge Yi'ao, who frequently practiced street dance, his physical abilities were roughly equal to Di Xing's.

The four were quickly forced together, and the situation was extremely urgent.

"...Crackling...Goodbye, Jane, you and those you want to protect will die here."

Jane's deep voice rang out, "Didn't you want to capture Di Xing alive?"

"His corpse would be acceptable, after all, he was an undead being."

"So, you lied when you said you didn't know why you arrested him. Ha, I didn't expect a robot to lie."

"That's why they say we are the perfect creation of the gods... Beep... I'm entering battle mode."

"I unleash the quick-attack spell 'Endless Endorphins,' doubling the attack power of the Magic Bullet Demon Samir!"

Samir's attack power decreased by 500 points due to the effect of Materialism, then doubled to 4000 points.

"...Crackling...In a death throes, I unleash materialism on your Wild Magic Shotgun on the field."

The iridescent rays from the tip of the materialist sword silently pierced the wild, and then the wild instantly crumbled and exploded.

Jane's health points: 7500 - 3000 + 1200 = 5700

The force of the explosion ripped several gruesome gashes across Jane's body.

This robot, Dark Robert, can even use spirit power to harm his dueling opponent!

"I'll use the Decoder to attack your [Magic Shot Musk] again."

Because Materialism was also summoned above the Decoder's connection area, the Decoder's attack power increased by 1000. Although it was reduced by 500 due to the effect of Materialism, it still had 2800 points. It shattered Musk with a single strike, and Musk's ammo pack exploded.

Jane's health points: 5700 - 2800 + 500 = 3400

The explosion sent Jane flying, causing her serious injury.

"I'm ending my combat phase."

Jane struggled to her feet.

"It would be so much better to die like that... *crackling*... at least I'd suffer less."

Jane exhaled a breath tinged with the smell of blood, glanced at Di Xing and the others who were still struggling beside her, and seemed to have made up her mind.

"I activate the Trap Card [Magic Bullet - Dancing Needle] behind Starr, banishing [Lightning Strike], [Shell Fortress], and [Hidden Shell Core Atheism] from your Graveyard. Then Starr's effect is triggered, Special Summoning [Magic Bullet Shooter Doctor] from my Deck."

"What's the point of all this?" Dark Robert glanced at Samir. "...Crack...You want to use its effect to draw cards, right? It is indeed powerful, it's your trump card, isn't it? But you actually dare to dream of surpassing a god?"

“Someone like you will surely be punished by the gods… crackle… humans cannot withstand such power,” Dark Roberts pointed to Jane’s deck. “The proof is your deck.”

Even while being besieged, Di Xing still managed to glance at Jane's deck and was shocked to find that Jane's deck was almost empty. If Samir's effect triggered and Jane drew more cards, she would be in danger!

"...Beep...I activate the effect of Materialism. You must send one monster from your field or hand to the Graveyard."

"I then activate the Continuous Trap Card 'Magic Bullet - Demon Bargain' behind the Doctor. The Doctor's effect triggers, adding 'Magic Bullet - Outlaw' from my Graveyard to my hand. Then, as long as Demon Bargain exists on the field, my 'Magic Bullet' monsters cannot be destroyed by card effects!"

"Useless... beep... Materialism's effect is to send you to your grave, not to destroy you. Come, choose! Do you want to personally extinguish your hope of surpassing the gods?"

"You really have a twisted sense of humor. I sent the Magic Bullet Shooter Casper to his grave."

Jane still hasn't buried Samir! What is she going to do?!

"Haha...beep...I really admire your stupidity. You won't give up that ridiculous delusion even if it means death. You can drown in that delusion that surpasses even the gods!"

But Jane seemed completely unconcerned. "I'll launch another trap card, Magic Bullet, behind Starr—Outlaw, destroy your materialism!"

"Are you stupid?...Crackling...Materialism is unaffected by Spell & Trap Card effects." Although it's possible to use Decoder's effect to release Disaster and negate this card, it's unnecessary. After all, while the possibility is small, the possibility of having a Level 11 or higher monster in the deck cannot be ruled out.

The artillery fire, accompanied by lightning, struck the materialistic surface without causing the slightest damage.

Jane looked at her revolver duel disk quietly, and made her final decision.

"I'll activate Crimson Crown again to Special Summon Magic Bullet Shooter Kid from my hand!"

Jane actually used all her Magic Bullet and Magic Trap cards in one turn.

"What are you doing? Don't you want to die sooner?!" Dark Roberts looked suspicious. He didn't know if robots had intuition, but he still sensed something was wrong.

"I'll put a card down, end... crackle... this round."

"Have you forgotten? Because of reckless greed, I'll skip my next gacha pull phase."

"What!?"

"Then Samir's effect activated, and I fired 7 'Magic Bullets' this turn, so I draw 7 cards." Jane began loading the bullets (cards) from her deck into the chamber one by one. When she loaded the seventh bullet, which was also the last card in her deck, Jane, who was usually calm and collected, revealed a serious expression.

Seeing this, Di Xing suddenly had a bad feeling. "The magical bullet, the first six shots never missed, but the seventh belongs to the devil." Di Xing couldn't help but mutter a famous line from the opera "Der Freischütz" by German composer C.M. Weber.
