The Villain Only Wants To Live a Buddhist Life

The black wall across the venue exudes a strong breath of death.

So much so that the professors and senior students who watched off the field all showed surprise.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would have imagined that this would be a curse released by a student who just entered the second grade?

It was Winnie Skadi, who also looked down in surprise at this time and asked the people around her.

When she learned that Sarah joined the Archaeological Society instead of the Literature Society, she couldn't help sighing.

But the timing of this [Life Forbidden] was a little slower after all.

[Mummy of Life] After being forcibly detained by [Underworld Spirit Ring], Dak Dimon on the red side player's stage quickly performed the Sacrifice Summoning technique!

His mastery of the Sacrifice Summoning technique is already extremely proficient. Although he still hasn't reached the three-second limit, he is already very close.

[Mummy of Life] is a three-star.

[Spell Cage: Little Evil Beast] is one star.

"With [Mummy of Life] and [Spell Cage: Little Evil Beast] as sacrifices, sacrifice and summon-[Fairy Ibrahimovic]!"

Feeling that his body was about to melt away, the little evil demon's face showed "it really is so" helpless, and then along with the [Mummy of Life], it became a sacrifice to summon [Fairy Ibrahimovic].

When the three beams of light gathered in one place, depicting a complex sacrificial summoning formation in the air, Sarah on the blue player's stage couldn't help but frown.

"It turned out to be a curse that can forcibly turn the opponent's magic wizard into a sacrifice?"

The discussion outside the court also increased instantly.

The narrator Zach Wilson gave an incredible exclamation.

In the eyes of the public, the extremely cute pink magic wizard finally jumped out of the sacrificial summoning array.

[Fairy Ibrahimovic] swaying two ribbons, looking up at the night sky while landing.

There is a full moon high above the dark night sky, and the bright moonlight is gently shining.

It inhales a little, and a little bit of moonlight converges, making it float like fairy dust.

More charming and cute.

…

"Monster!"

[Dream Demon] hit [Bone Beauty Snake] with a final blow, completely killing this difficult bone snake!

Without the [Mummy of Life] station, [Bone Beauty Snake] has no hope of returning.

But hidden in the [Necromancy Urn] behind [Life Forbidden], there was a swimming Necrosphere silently.

In the red summoning area, [Fairy Ibrahimovic], who was summoned "by the way", is bathing in moonlight and exuding charm.

…

At this time the second round will be over.

Both sides of the duel have only the last card left in their hands, which can be described as exhausted.

But there are still two second step wizard elves in Dak’s field in good condition.

Apart from the [Life Forbidden] of unknown use in Sara's venue, there is only the lonely [Necromancer].

At first glance, Dak Dimon has all the advantages.

But Sarah is not without room to fight back.

At this time, the second round finally passed.

…

"Tick!"

【Battle Phase (3)】【30s】

…

Players from both sides made up cards immediately.

With the two new magic cards, Sara Swati cursed her brows because of the detention of [Mummy of Life]. At this time, she finally stretched her brows.

What she needs most now is a magic wizard capable of standing on the ground.

If this magic wizard also has the ability to limit [Dream Demon], so much the better!

[Dream Demon] is an undead species, able to pass through [Life Forbidden] unhindered, and is the most threatening existence.

Three seconds, slightly more.

In the blue side's summoning area, the light of summoning was quickly lit up!

…

And on the stage of the red players.

Duck also added two hands in his hand.

▼

【Moon Pendant】

【Demon Fox Beast】

▲

Coupled with the remaining [Elysium 3], there are not many tactics he can use.

But before summoning, he first gave an attack order.

After destroying the [Bone Beauty Snake], the [Dream Demon] who was gradually excited, immediately controlled [Nightmare Space] to expand to the opposite side.

On its own, it disappeared without a trace in front of everyone.

[Fairy Ibrahimovic], who cannot walk freely in [Nightmare Space], can only move slowly towards halftime.

Duck glanced at it and started to summon [Moon Pendant]!

At this time, in the blue summoning area, Sarah's magic wizard gradually appeared.

It was a black cat with a familiar impression—but it was not the two-star [Sphynx Cat]!

Although this black cat is the same breed as the [Sphynx cat], it does not have a single hair on its body. The cat has golden eyes, dark skin, huge ears, and a slender tail.

But it has two tails!

At first glance, it looks like a "cat again" among magical animals, but it's not.

But its weird appearance has given Duck a warning sign.

He has no doubt that this two-tailed black cat also has a weird nirvana similar to [Sphynx Cat].

It is even possible that it will take effect on [Dream Demon] across classes!

[Dream Monster] is not afraid of a strong attack, no matter how powerful the opponent is, at best it will end up with one for one.

But if the other party adopts the restriction of pure control, it will be difficult for [Dream Demon] to give full play to its advantages.

Therefore, after summoning [Moon Pendant], Dak immediately reminded: "Don't be careless!"

As the words fell, the figure of [Dream Demon] emerged in the thick purple fog, and it rushed towards the [Life Forbidden]!

"puff!"

However, the illusion created by [Dream Demon] instantly shattered when it touched the black wall.

The two cats on the other side of [Life Forbidden] suddenly lay down in one direction and let out a dull roar.

The body of [Dream Demon] slowly emerged.

It looked at the two-tailed cat curiously, thinking about how the kitten "sees" it?

Although cats are highly inspired creatures...

"It's useless, my [Necromancer again] has a pupil that can see through ghosts and ghosts."

Sarah's voice sounded faintly, but it was obvious that she was speaking to [Dream Demon].

Talk to the wizard spirit?

From the eyes of the spectators in the off-site auditorium, this is completely inexplicable.

But the teachers and students of St. Marian's College have lost their feelings.

Sara is very sure that [Dream Demon] understands, so the "talking" that is useless for normal wizards will be useful to [Dream Demon]!

[Dream Demon] Sure enough, he no longer hides his figure, but as the purple fog spreads over, he personally stretched out his tentacles to test the [Life Forbidden].

Then the tentacles that it squeezed out of the body penetrated [Life Forbidden] without any hindrance.

In the next moment, its entire body passed through!

But it looked left and right and found that the purple smoke had not followed. It suddenly remembered Dak’s "don't care" and immediately retracted.

【Nightmare Space】Can't penetrate through 【Life Forbidden】.

[Dream Demon], but it can!

Duck on the red side player's stage suddenly caught a glimmer of light.

"This [Life Forbidden], is it a field skill?"

His eyes can't penetrate the black wall, and he can't see [Necromancer] and [Necromancer]. Now that [Dream Demon] can pass through freely, he no longer hesitates.

"Dream demon, go in!"

…

Then after giving the order, he squirmed his lips quickly and proceeded to summon [Demon Fox]!

"In the name of Dak Dimon, the wizard summons—[Demon Fox]!"

When [Demon Fox Beast] appeared in the red summoning area, [Dream Monster] had already accepted the order and rushed into [Life Forbidden] again.

Then, there was no sound in an instant!

Sara on the blue side player's stage, the arc of her mouth gradually widened, and finally she was full of smiles.

"Next, what will you do?"

She knocked on the card table and groaned softly.

…

Duck clearly felt that the connection between himself and the [Dream Demon] had not been severed, and the state of [Dream Demon] was almost intact.

"Then it can only be controlled-like being stepped on by [Stepping Shadow]!"

Duck pondered a little, and said: "Fairy Ibrahimovic, you come."

"mum!"

[Fairy Ibrahimovic], who had passed through the thick purple fog and arrived in the blue half, raised his head and gave a soft cry, suddenly speeding up!

It is faster than the basic speed of [Dream Demon], and the speed in [Nightmare Space] has been reduced, but it has not been reduced to an excessive degree.

When it reached the [Life Forbidden], the [Demon Fox Beast] was on standby under the order of Dak.

[Fairy Ibrahimovic] Raise his paw, press it hard, and it will be blocked as if it touches a wall.

Duck’s brain was running fast, and then he immediately commanded: "Voice of Charm!"

【Extinction of Living Beings】It's just a wall, it's impossible to stop the nirvana that uses sound as the medium.

Therefore, in the case where it is impossible to determine how high the intensity of [Life Forbidden] is, [Voice of Charm] is more useful than [Power of the Moon].

What's more, [Fairy Ibrahimovic] also wore [Moon Pendant]!

With the additional nirvana of [Moon Pendant]-[Beauty of the Moon], the success rate of [Voice of Charm] will increase, and it is now the [Moon] bathed in moonlight under the moon night. Next Beauty], the effect is doubled!

The only thing that needs to be considered is whether the black cat with two tails is a **** or not, and is it male or female?

But in any case, it is extremely fast to test it.

Dark stared tightly off the court.

Fairy Ibrahimovic had his head high, and soft light that seemed to drip out of his eyes was flowing in his pupils.

"????~?~????..."

Then it lightly opened its lips and sang a song of charm.

[Voice of Charm]'s nirvana skill was activated, and waves appeared on the surface of [Life Forbidden], and the charm of [Charming Body] was transformed into a form of "sound" and expanded.

Dark still couldn't see the scene opposite the black wall.

But [Necromancer] and [Fairy Ibrahimovic] are similar in type, at least in terms of "aesthetic".

As long as [necromancer] is a male-even a female, it is difficult to remain indifferent.

And once [Necromancer] is charmed again, [Dream Demon] can take the opportunity to get out!

…

"Tick!"

【Battle Phase (4)】【30s】

…

The third round passed very quickly.

The two sides did not launch any substantive confrontation, and the situation in the field was mainly advancing.

But when the switching sound of the round sounded, both of them just subconsciously touched the cards, and did not divert their attention to it.

Because of the changes in the venue, it is in a critical period.

The blue summoning area.

[Dream Demon] Just passed through [Life Forbidden], and was stared at by the golden eyes of [Necromancer Again], making the surface of its body covered with a layer of golden light.

That layer of light has the effect of forbidden hoops, and its effect on undead species is outstanding!

[Card name: Necromancer again]

【Type: Wizard Card】

【grade:???】

[Race: Undead species]

[Attribute: Dark System]

[Magic: 1500]

[Attack: 1300]

【Defense: 300】

[Special Moves: Broken Eyes, Imprisonment of Necromancers, Fate of Two Tails]

▲

[Necromancer] As the name suggests, it is an undead species that transforms into a cat after it dies.

Because of the second tail born in the process of transformation, it became a "cat again".

"Cat" is a two-tailed cat, compared to a nine-tailed cat, it only has a second life.

Therefore [Necromancer again], there are two lives!

By the way, Sarah made this [Necromancer Again], conceptually it was transformed from [Sphynx Cat] after death.

Its attack is not bad, but the defense is very low. The higher magic power means that this is a magical wizard that tends to be skill-based.

Moreover, it is an orange card!

Among the three nirvana skills, [Spirit-Breaking Eyes] can see through ghosts and monsters, and occasionally see through false illusions. It is a very practical nirvana.

And [Necro Imprisonment] is a control technique that has a bonus effect on the undead species and on the ghost system.

If the object that needs to be imprisoned is the undead species of the ghost system, the effect will be even more significant!

【Necro Imprisonment】With the 【Life Forbidden】, it is a perfect match.

So that [Dream Demon] was completely imprisoned in front of it!

But this cat is conceptually male!

…

Therefore, when the [Voice of Charm] sounded, the mark of [?] appeared in the golden cat eyes of [Necromancer again].

When it performs 【Necro Imprisonment】, it must keep its eyes on the opponent and cannot move it away.

This is the same as the [Step Shadow] of [Sphynx Cat]. Once removed, the imprisonment effect will be lifted.

Facing the charm of [Fairy Ibrahimovic], [Necromancer again] had no resistance at all and immediately turned to the imitation of the voice.

Then [Dream Demon] broke the imprisonment immediately!

"Wow!"

It opened its "hands" very angrily, and culled at [Necromancer Again]!

How can a three-star [Necromancer] with a defense of only 300 points block the culling of the five-star magic wizard?

In a blink of an eye, [Necromancer Again] was killed in seconds.

But it did not completely die.

[Fate of Two Tails], launch!

…

At the same time.

[Necromancer] There is another necromancer ball inside.

This three-star magic wizard can also be regarded as one of Sara's trump cards.

Although it looks like a fragile clay pot, it actually has a strong defensive power that exceeds the limit of three stars, only slightly inferior to [Jug].

[Card Name: Necromancer]

【Type: Wizard Card】

【grade:???】

[Race: Undead species]

[Attribute: Ghost System]

【Magic Power: 1000】

【Attack: 0】

【Defense: 2000】

[Special Moves: Spirit in the Urn, Death Eruption]

▲

1000 points of magic, 0 points of attack, and 2000 points of defense!

[Necromancer] The configuration of measurements is reasonable.

Among its two nirvana skills, [Spirit in the Urn] is the ability to condense the Necrosphere in the Urn.

As long as there is a magical spirit in the range that dies in battle, [Necromancer Urn] can condense a necromancer ball in the Urn.

Each of these necrospheres is a one-star sacrifice with 0 offense and 0 defense.

[Necromancer] After being summoned, there are three necromancer balls, and the death of [Bone Beauty Snake] condenses it into a fourth necromancer balls.

Then the first life of [Necromancer Again] gave it the fifth Necromancer Orb.

foreseeable.

When the second life of [Necromancer Again] also dies, a sixth Necromancer will appear in [Necromancer Urn]!

This special effect is unusually similar to the [Flame Furnace] designed by Dak.

But in addition to being a sacrifice, those necrospheres have other functions.

That is, as an energy source for [Dead Outbreak]!

[Necro Burst] is a self-destruct type of nirvana.

Each Necro Orb can increase the power of [Necrotic Outburst] by 10%.

Six Necro Orbs can increase the power of [Necrotic Burst] by a full 60%!

The basic power of [Necrotic Outbreak] is already extremely high, and this is increased by 60%, even if the magic wizard of the second step is directly blown to death!

But unless forced to, Sara would not use this nirvana.

…

The meow sound of [Necromancer Again]'s first life when it died came out from the opposite side of [Necromancer Forbidden].

[Dream Monster] There is also a voice again.

After Duck felt a little loose in his heart, he finally had time to check the newly touched magic card.

He only put a total of twenty magic cards in the deck.

At first, there were only fifteen cards left.

These fifteen magic cards can be touched in just eight times.

This means that Dak can draw all the magic cards within eight rounds!

This fourth round is already halfway through.

▼

【Magic Beast: Ibrahimovic】

【Elysium 2】

▲

Basically, [Elysium 2] exists for [Magic Beast: Ibrahimovic] to be upgraded to two stars.

The two-star [Magic Beast: Ibrahimovic] can expand [Mist Field (Elysium)].

Every [Elysium] magic wizard in the [Mist Field (Elysium)] can get an extra [Charming Body] effect!

But now there is no need to expand [Mist Field (Elysium)].

On the contrary, it is the [imitation] of the two-star Ibrahimovic, which occasionally has miraculous effects!

But Dak did not spend his energy on the call of [Magic Beast: Ibrahimovic].

His hand is always pressed on 【Elysium 3】, ready to call at any time.

…

"Meow!"

On the opposite side of [Death of the Dead], there was another stern meow.

Dak was surprised by this, but the painful wailing of [Dream Demon] came soon after!

"Go back! Dream demon.,"

Dark felt tight in his heart and suddenly shouted.

[Dream Demon] heard the order, endured the pain, and returned from the [Life Forbidden].

Behind it appeared a gray and white twisted shadow.

The mana value is rapidly falling at a rate of 100 points per second.

"It's [Azban's death language]!"

Dark immediately confirmed the existence of this secret instrument card.

[Aziban's Death Talk] is a secret card based on the legendary event of the great alchemist Azban.

And it's Sara's favorite secret card.

Even if Dak did not see what happened on the opposite side of [Life Forbidden], he could guess that [Dream Demon] must have been attacked by the "Curse of Death" that Sarah set up in advance after killing [Necromancer].

With the magic value of [Dream Demon], it can't last a round.

"too troublesome!"

Dark stared closely at the [Life Forbidden] who blocked the view.

Without the existence of this black wall, he would be able to command [Dream Demon] more effectively, and even help [Dream Demon] avoid [Azban’s Death Talk].

Sarah shrunk all the arrangements to the [Life Forbidden], which is unpredictable.

"In that case, fairy Ibrahimovic, use [Moon Power]!"

"mum!"

[Fairy Ibrahimovic] Suddenly made a loud cry, even his eyes became sharp.

It also didn't like this dark wall, so it suddenly raised its head and began to gather moonlight.

In the night sky, moonlight suddenly gathered into a beam, shining on fairy Ibrahimovic from top to bottom.

Its body was bathed in the moonlight, and it couldn't help being a little more mysterious.

[Moon Power] It was originally a powerful nirvana, but now bathed in moonlight, its power is doubled, and it emits extremely dangerous energy fluctuations.

[Fairy Ibrahimovic] opened his mouth, and the pure moonlight condensed into a ball in his mouth at a very fast speed, and then aimed at [Life Forbidden], and burst out!

"boom!"

[Moon Power]'s beam of light poured heavily on [Life Forbidden].

This dark condensed wall finally produced violent fluctuations.

However, after [Moon Power] was fully output for half a second, [Life Forbidden] only became thinner.

The blue players are on stage.

Sarah's smile is great!

[Life Abstinence] Can last for three minutes.

Within these three minutes, unless it is a nirvana from the third ladder, it is extremely difficult to break it.

With the buffer of these three minutes and six rounds, she can draw and summon her trump card very steadily!

"In the name of Sara Swati, the wizard summons-[Dead Mummy]!"

▼

[Card Name: Dead Mummy]

【Type: Wizard Card】

【grade:???】

[Race: Undead species]

[Attribute: Dark]

【Magic Power: 1000】

【Attack: 100】

【Defense: 1600】

[Nertial Skill: Feign Death]

▲

The call of another three-star magic wizard makes Sara's lineup re-expanded.

[The Mummy of the Dead] and [The Mummy of the Living] are both magical wizard cards that Sarah usually uses.

She usually orders the [Dead Mummy] to stuff the magic ball into her abdomen for protection, and will also use it as a stable offering for sacrifice and summoning at critical moments.

Moreover, the [Dead Mummy] with [Fake Death] has the same two lives as [Necromancer].

Can provide two necromancer **** for [Necromancer Urn]!

…

After summoning the [Dead Mummy], Sarah finally started the sacrifice call.

But her sacrificial summoning technique is not as good as Dak, and it takes a long time to chant.

And in this gap, Dark has already summoned [Elysium 3]!

Bathed in the brilliance of [Best Bliss 3], [Demon Fox Beast] is evolving towards [Nine-Tailed Fox Beast].

Another plan flashed through Duck's mind, but he quickly discarded it.

Originally, he had thought of turning [Demon Fox Beast] into [Dream Monster], thereby disguising as [Undead Species] and gaining the ability to pass through [Life Forbidden].

But he has already become extremely impatient with that [Life Forbidden]!

"Evolve! Nine-tailed fox!"

[Demon Fox Beast] The coat of arms of [Elysium] has appeared on the forehead of [Monster].

The pink brilliance lingering around it makes it emit a gradually rich and coquettish atmosphere.

Its body structure has undergone drastic changes in the light of evolution.

When the light of evolution dissipated, a golden fox with nine tails appeared in the summoning area of ​​the red side!

[Nine-Tailed Fox Beast] Blue flames were burning on the tail and feet.

On the center of the eyebrows and limbs, there are patterns of Tai Chi that symbolize "Tao".

It is like a sacred animal guarding Taoist temples, shrines and other places.

After its evolution, Dak did not hesitate to issue an instruction: "Destroy that wall!"

After evolution, it was already a six-star [Nine-Tailed Fox Beast]. The nine tails behind him suddenly stood up, and the blue flames at the end quickly condensed into a piece of [Wild Fire Jade].

It raised its head and let out a soft whistle, and the nine [Wildfire Jade] connected into a ring of nine fireballs under its control.

Then it flicked its tail, and the nine spinning [Wild Fire Jade] burst out toward [Life Forbidden]!

"Boom!"

Nine [Wild Fire Jade] exploded together, and the dark walls were crumbling.

[Life is forbidden], becomes extremely transparent.

Through the translucent black wall, Duck was finally able to see the layout of the blue summoning area again.

His eyes flashed, and he whispered: "Dream demon, prepare!"

…

Sacrifice summoning is very different from normal summoning.

When Sarah started to cast the summoning sacrifice spell, Darker was immediately aware of it.

As soon as his voice fell, Sarah's summoning sacrifice was completed.

Although the process of the sacrifice call was beyond his expectation-the [Dead Mummy] was not offered as a sacrifice.

A total of five white lights suddenly shot out from the old clay pot, and the white lights shot out from the magic card in Sara's hand converged in the air.

A huge summoning array of sacrifices came into being.

Sara Swati has finally summoned the magic wizard of the second ladder for the first time since this duel began!

And [Dream Demon] finally has a blood bag to sustain life!

Therefore, both players smiled at the same time.

…

The magic wizard that jumped out of the sacrificial summoning formation was a sub-race of the wolf-headed human body.

But this werewolf did not exude a bloodthirsty aura. It had white fur, gentle eyes, and the same white sacrificial robe was draped on its body.

Surprisingly, it is almost invisible among the werewolf race, the werewolf priest!

[Card Name: White Wolf Priest]

【Type: Wizard Card】

[Race: sub-race]

[Attribute: Light]

【Magic Power: 2300】

【Attack: 2100】

【Defense: 1500】

[Special Moves: Elf Wolf, Return to Light and Self-healing]

▲

The light attribute 【White Wolf Priest】, this is an extremely abrupt existence among Sara's magical elves.

But Sarah is actually still a student who has just entered the second grade, and she doesn't have so much leeway in the selection of the wizard elves.

A five-star magic wizard card is necessary to increase the upper limit of the deck.

What's more, [White Wolf Priest]'s measurements and special moves are not bad.

The defense of just over 1500 points can also make it resist almost all the ordinary attacks of the first ladder magic wizard.

The special move [Elf Wolf] can summon two three-star [Elf Wolf].

The special move [Return to Light Self-Healing], can make itself and the summoned [Elf Wolf] obtain the effect of "high-speed self-healing".

Whether in an adventure or in a duel, it can be used as the front row.

Of course, as a blood bag.

With its 2300 points of magic power, it can also extend the life of [Dream Demon] for ten more seconds.

…

It was almost the moment [White Wolf Priest] was summoned.

[Dream Demon] used its nirvana against it—[Sharing the pain]!

Then it rushed past [Life Forbidden] without any hesitation—pounced on [Dead Urn]!

The sacrifice call of 【White Wolf Priest】has exposed the function of 【Necromancer】.

There is no need to say Dake points at all, [Dream Demon] changed the target of attack.

Sarah turned a face and hurriedly shouted:

"Protect [Necromancer]!"

[White Wolf Priest], whose magic power value suddenly dropped by nearly half, was stunned on the spot, allowing [Dream Demon] to pass by.

However, the 100% proficiency [Dead Mummy] irritably shot out the bandages hanging down on both sides of the body, wound the necromancer urn, and pressed it into his belly.

Although [Dead Mummy]’s defense is actually lower than [Necromancer], it does.

Then [Dead Mummy] was killed by [Dream Demon] in an instant!

[Necromancer] There is an extra necromancer inside.

…

During this process, the fourth round was switched quietly.

The duel entered the fifth round.

…

The smile on Sara's face has completely subsided.

While drawing the card, she issued a new instruction, [White Wolf Priest] immediately summoned [Elf Wolf], and then released the special move [Return to Light and Heal].

Its magic value began to recover quickly.

And it is also in front of the magic ball.

And Sarah herself chanted the sacrifice summoning technique once again!

"A second stair magic wizard with more than half the magic value."

"One cannot be used as a sacrifice, but it stores two one-star sacrifices of the first step magic wizard."

"Offer this as a sacrifice, and the magic director summons..."

…

"Boom!"

The blazing blue flame turned into a dragon, and the fierce bombardment was on the [Life Forbidden].

The black wall, which had become transparent, became thinner again.

[Nine-tailed Fox Beast] Raises its head and screams, the blue flames all over it condenses into a huge energy ball, and the terrifying energy fluctuations spread.

When this [Tengu] was released, the [Fairy Ibrahimovic] in front of the wall had already retreated.

The huge energy ball blasted over [Life Forbidden] without any hindrance, and immediately exploded.

The flame-like blue aperture opened instantly.

A terrifying mushroom cloud rose to the sky.

The deafening explosion made the audience exclaim.

The wall of [Life Forbidden] was completely shattered in this terrifying explosion.

Then the blue summoning area behind it was also completely swallowed by the aftermath of the explosion.

But in this explosion, the summoning array of sacrifice shone tenaciously.

Sara watched all this nervously.

The sudden change made her unable to determine whether this sacrifice call was successful or not?

…

…

[Suddenly I found that I have written more than 180,000 words this month, and that's the amount I usually wrote in a month. 】
