There are purple-red clouds floating around its body, which makes it look a bit like a "Gigantamax" image.

And with the appearance of this card, those Mechanical Spirits that were considered waste cards suddenly collapsed.

Their energy connection with the new card still exists, but as the new card takes shape, the direction of energy transfer is reversed.

After the ten-star Metagross Spirit Card was completely formed, it transmitted something to those spirits. Under this influence, the disintegrating mechanical spirits began to gradually change.

Seeing that these spirits were being reshaped too slowly, Carl released his psychic energy, adding fuel to the fire.

So, under Nia's expectant eyes, the disintegrated soul energy gradually turned into an "iron dumbbell" form that was quite similar to Metagross's claws.

This is also the initial form of Metagross in Pokémon.

"Quick! Summon him out and let's see!"

When everything was settled, Nia shook Carl and urged him to show it.

Carl nodded and tried to use his psychic power to activate the ten-star Metagross Spirit Card, but found that it seemed to be missing something and could not be summoned directly.

After squinting his eyes and thinking for a while, Carl picked up the Metagross and a few iron dumbbells and activated and summoned them.

When the Metagross appeared on the field, the iron dumbbells seemed to be pulled by an unknown force and flew behind the Metagross and merged with it.

After Carl summoned four iron dumbbells in a row, the ten-star Metagross Spirit Card suddenly burst into light and flew out of Carl's hand.

The Metagross spirit that was embedded in the iron dumbbell flew into the special spirit card and then reappeared from it.

But the reappearing Metagross was very different from the simple chimera just now.

It is closer to the image on the ten-star spirit card, and the originally cartoon-like image has become more realistic.

Not only that, its body became extremely large, almost occupying the position that originally required five spirits.

If converted in volume, it now looks like a huge alloy fortress.

Seeing this, Carl drew out his trump card - the Cloud Giant.

This card is quite large compared to other spirits, but it is still half a body shorter than the Chimera Metagross Fortress.

Using psychic power to issue commands, Carl drove the cloud giant spirit to attack the Metagross Fortress.

The cloud giant spirit raised Thor's hammer high, dazzling lightning surged, and then it leaped up and slammed into the Metagross fortress.

To Carl's surprise, the Metagross Fortress was not instantly killed like ordinary spirits.

One of the iron dumbbell floating cannons floating around its body was shattered, as if it had paid the price of his original death.

And there are three such iron dumbbells.

"Can it withstand four fatal attacks? Or does it have five health bars and is immune to one-hit kills? If it's the latter, this spirit seems pretty good."

Touching his chin, Carl was somewhat surprised by the performance of the ten-star Metagross.

At this moment, Nia on the side poured a bucket of cold water on them.

"Don't be too happy yet. This ten-star Metagross requires at least four Chimeras to transform, but according to the current rules, you can only have three of the same card. Doesn't this mean that I can't summon it?"

Turning his head, Carl found that Nia looked angry because of this matter.

"It seems like she also likes playing Spirit Cards, but not as blatantly as Lisanna..."

With this thought in mind, Carl began to think about countermeasures according to Nia's words.

After a moment's silence, Karl said helplessly:

"Hmm~, this is indeed a problem. Let's cancel the summons first and take a look at the Iron Dumbbell Spirit alone."

As he spoke, Carl used his psychic powers to cut off the spirit manifestations of the spirit cards, allowing the spirits to return to their respective spirit cards.

"Is this a completely new way of summoning? Is this considered... fusion?"

On the side, Hope looked at the spirit card that had returned to silence with great interest and asked in a curious tone.

"It should be, but it's a little different from what I thought it was. Let Midris come over later and let her..."

At this point, Carl suddenly remembered that Mitris was going to participate in the resurrection match today and probably wouldn't be able to come before the end of the match.

"As I recall, the deck that Mitris used was similar to yours, right?"

Turning his head to look at Nia, Carl asked uncertainly.

Hearing this, Nia's body stiffened and she turned her head away embarrassedly.

"Well, I guess so..."

Seeing her guilty look, Karl inevitably thought of something.

Then, he moved closer to Nia and asked quietly, "Are you letting Midris participate in the competition using the deck you built?"

Nia: "Yes, it doesn't matter! The deck I built for her is not bad! At least she didn't get eliminated directly!"

Carl: "If Mitris hadn't used the deck you built to win four games in a row this time, I don't think you would have the face to face her in the future."

A long time ago, Carl discovered that Nia's genius was mainly concentrated in learning and research.

Although she was able to learn strategies and tactics, they were always a bit rigid and she took many things for granted.

Unfortunately, the game of Spirit Cards was one of the areas she was not good at.

The deck she built was like the Iron Guard she designed, which was only very good in theory.

After hearing what Karl said, Nia angrily kicked Karl in the calf.

She might also want to kick higher, but the height difference between the two does not allow it.

After venting her anger a little, Nia threw herself into Hope's arms and defended herself:

"Maybe Midris will use my deck this time! And the reason she didn't advance directly is because there are too many strong players in the first group."

Carl: "But even Lisanna made it through the first game's tryouts... Although she does have a card I made specifically for her, Spirit decks these days still place a lot of emphasis on strategy and equipment pairing."

Without waiting for the two sides to continue arguing, Hope put her arm around Carl's head and let Carl and Nia bury themselves in her arms together.

The two of them stopped talking for a moment.

Fully demonstrating her "majesty" as the "eldest woman", Hope winked at Ying, signaling her to help change the subject.

In line with his three-person character, the usually insignificant Ying looked around and finally spoke up: "Will this iron dumbbell spirit change after defeating other spirits? Should we give it a try?"
