I got sick in the past two days, and yesterday the chapter was moved to make up for it, so I'm sorry for the inconvenience!

————————————————————————————

The hour hand points to 4 o'clock.

The battle in Duel City has heated up, and most of the duelists have been eliminated.

Two figures wearing dueling plates walked out of a gloomy alley, one in a white trench coat and the other in a blue-black school uniform shawl, none other than Game and Seahorse.

"Games." Seahorse squinted at his fateful nemesis, "You're getting worse and worse than you used to be. ”

They had just defeated the fourth wave of minions that had come to stop them, sent by the Gurus to stall for time.

"Seahorses!" The game frowned, and I have to say that although he agrees with the other party's strength, there are some points of view that the two of them really can't talk about together.

Malik's power is beyond our imagination, and since he can use brainwashing to turn that person into a pure "doll" puppet under his control, he will definitely be able to attack others where we can't do it...... It's not just them in the city, aren't you worried about Bai's safety! ”

"Humph! If you don't want to fight me here, just say it...... Don't fool me with such excuses! Seahorse sneered, "All the duels in this city have been monitored by the Seahorse Group's satellites, and no one of the decks has been found to have a Sun God card, which means that Malik is not here at all!" ”

As a force that once made a lot of war money and sold arms, the power of the Haima Group in Japan is very large, even though it has completed the key transformation to the development of the game industry under the painstaking management of Haima, but the power still remains, and the satellite is one of the evidence.

"It's also possible that they hid the Sun God card beforehand......" In the face of this fact, the game was a little powerless, and he could only try his best to say what he thought.

"And you didn't notice it along the way, the number of Gurus is much denser, which shows that they have a purpose to stop us."

"'Sniping and tempting those with Phantasmal Cards'...... I don't see anything wrong with that. Seahorse interrupted him.

"I'll do the same for me, the fall of those minions isn't worthless—some of the wrecking gods have been exposed." He stretched out his finger and pointed to the game, "And you! But I'm just thinking about those boring children! ”

"Seahorses!" The game looks eagerly at the seahorse and yells.

It's not because he's unhappy with the other party's attitude.

He called out because he could see a black-robed shadow leaping down from the air, targeting the seahorse directly below.

"Huh?" Between the lightning and flint, the seahorse didn't have time to dodge anymore, so he had to raise the dueling disc in his left arm to block it.

He is very confident in the quality of his own products, and after testing, this generation duel disc is extremely difficult to damage, and a simple sharp weapon cutting can only draw a shallow opening.

With a click, the black shadow chirped and bounced away with a smile, and the seahorse was about to say something, but he felt that the dueling disc on his arm was nearly twice as heavy for no reason.

"What is this!"

“…… Lock? ”

Four metal tracks firmly lock the entire dueling disk, and the front end is a grimace mask, the mask is smiling happily with its mouth split, and there is a hole in it that looks like a place to insert a key.

"Heehe~~ It's locked! Locked up! ”

When the shadow saw that the task was accomplished, he immediately jumped away with joy, and he jumped all the way down the bulge between the tall buildings, and he was agile enough to race the ape.

"If you want to get the key...... You two come to the rooftop! Where am my partner and I waiting for you? He looked down at the seahorse and the game, revealing his face.

He wears a half-face mask, similar to the one Joker wore before, with the line from the center of the eyebrows to the chin as the dividing line covering only half of his face, and the mask is white, outlining an imaginary smile on the original facial organs.

After hearing his words, the two continued to raise their heads, and sure enough, they found another tall black figure standing on the top of the building.

This is a glaring trap.

But for them – for the two gods hiding in their deck, does this trap make sense?

Glancing at each other, the game is the first to push open the glass door that leads to the interior of the level.

……

They are not the only ones who have endured such treatment.

Li Bai looked at the middle-aged man blocking in front of him, and his blood-red vertical pupils narrowed slightly.

"Is it the Gurus' again?"

They were about to go to the central area of the city, where there were the largest number of duelists, and they might run into Jouchi and Kyoko and the others, but they were intercepted in the middle of the way.

This man gave Li Bai a very bad feeling, although he was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, and a pair of gold wire glasses were put on the bridge of his nose to show Sven, but she could still detect her instinctive disgusting this guy. This feeling was different from when she first met Joker, and the two had never fought each other, and she had already developed that disgust.

When she fights Joker, she is more out of anger, which is an instinctive reaction to seeing her friend killed and piracy, and perhaps adding the dark force in Nit's mouth, she herself doesn't feel invaded by that force at any time, and she doesn't have any dark places and utensils in her memory, so she has to give up.

But what made her even more strange was that she seemed to have seen this man somewhere.

"Oh? Now that you've recognized my identity, I don't think I'm here to explain. The middle-aged man smiled politely, "...... The eldest lady of the Seahorse family. ”

"Inside the Gurus, there are people who decorate more than one black robe, or who do not wear black robes at all...... Such a guy shouldn't be as simple as a minion, put your name on it! ”

"My name is Nightmare, you can call me Nightmare." Nightmare bowed slightly, then he turned his head and looked at the other white-haired girl hiding behind Li Bai, "Like that guy named Joker, he is one of the four card hunters who belong to Gurus. ”

"Card King!?" Li Bai glanced at Joker in surprise, she didn't expect that this guy who was regarded as a miscellaneous fish by her at the beginning would have such a high status in Gurus.

And this guy called Nightmare...... It seems that he is another character who has never appeared in the original book.

"You'll survive the whale shark blowing up the entire building, Joker, how lucky are you?" Nightmare slapped his face, "Now it's more by your subject's side...... Are you going to be her pet? ”

"It's so rare, I didn't expect you to be able to let go of that hatred......"

"Shut up!"

Joker couldn't bear it anymore, and stood up from behind Li Bai, looking at the nightmare with a very complicated gaze.

She was one of the many real yàn products of the Gurus, whose ultimate goal was to "breed a stand-in that grew in tandem with the seapony sister".

At that time, Li Bai's body had not yet awakened, and Gurus thought that he could infiltrate the Seahorse Group through Guò and two people, so as to achieve the goal of devouring this game industry giant step by step.

But to their surprise, the mentally handicapped girl suddenly returned to normal, and not only that, but she also showed a dueling level beyond ordinary people; They had to change their plans and temporarily conduct emergency training for card duels for all eligible entities.

This kind of crash train certainly wouldn't be so merciful.

After squeezing out all the competitors, she finally got the name "Joker" and was officially awarded the replica Lightpath card, becoming the fourth card hunter of Gurus.

But what she didn't expect was ...... She paid for it, and the organization would actually repay her with a bomb.

The entire building had been blown up, and there was no doubt that the upper floors had no intention of keeping her alive.

“Nightmare…… This kind of thing is qualified for several other people to say to me, but you are the only one who is not worthy. Joker stared at Nightmare fiercely, a sarcastic smile on his face, "Don't forget, you've never won a ranked battle against me in Card Hunter!" ”

“…… Qualifying is based on the overall results. The expression on Nightmare's face froze, "If you want to talk about qualifications, aren't you, who always sit at the bottom, even less qualified to criticize me." ”

He looked at Li Bai again, his gaze resting on her right hand for a moment.

From the very beginning he noticed - the intact right hand, which puzzled him.

Wasn't the target's right hand blown away? Not to mention that the current level of medical care cannot meet this problem, even if it can...... Why is it so fast!?

In such a short time since the incident, that flexibility doesn't look like a prosthetic leg...... What the is going on!

The nightmare couldn't help but burst into a foul language in the bottom of my heart.

His initial opponent was not Li Bai, but the black-haired girl in a white robe standing next to her, the former had a broken arm and couldn't hold a card at all.

The nightmare quietly sent a message to the back hand hidden in the shadows.

"It's good that Lord Lixid supports me, otherwise I'm afraid I will have to return again in vain this time."

Joker's deck is a replica of Li Bai, and the deck of these two is like a nemesis to him, and he doesn't dare to deal with it without permission.

A corner of black robes fluttered from the corner of the street.

"Huh?" Li Bai stared at this guy who suddenly joined the battle.

The man was tall, wearing the standard black robe of Gurus, revealing a darker complexion, and his eyebrow bones did not look like an Oriental.

"Lichd? How could he be at this time? The girl quickly recognized his identity from the tattoos on his face, which were none other than Liched, who guarded Malik's negative personality seals, which he had carved on Malik's face when he first conceived his negative personality, which suppressed the evil thoughts in Malik's heart, and made him barely maintain a basic concept of right and wrong; In the original book, nearly a qiē horror occurred after he fell, and after losing his restraints, the negative personality took over Malik's body, and the sun god was omnipotent in his hands, causing great slaughter.

The trouble is that Malik himself did not know this, nor did he know anything about the existence of the other personality, otherwise Liched would certainly not have been sent to the forefront of the battlefield.

Like now.

"I will defeat Lord Malik's enemies."

Lihid looked indifferently at the enemy in front of him, he had been adopted by the Tomb Guards since he was a child, and he had long regarded himself as one of them, and Malik, as the leader of this Blood, was the object of his sworn allegiance.

He pointed to a department store not far away and said, "There's an underground parking lot over there, and our battle will be there." ”

"Don't try to run away, the whale shark people were killed by you nearly half last time, they won't let you go lightly, if I'm not mistaken, there should be several guns pointed at your head at the same time."

Nate took two steps forward and whispered in Li Bai's ear.

“…… Hum! This foolish dead fisheye! Anger reignited on the girl's face, and according to Nit's detection, Lihid's words were true.

This guy deserves praise for his loyalty to Malik, but he is also a little too ruthless...... For Malik's sake, he could give up a qiē—even the dignity of being a duelist; This is not something that Li Bai can agree with.

"You'll regret it, Lichd." Li Bai looked at the man solemnly, trying to persuade him to dispel the idea of blocking in person.

"It's not just you, Malik will regret it as well...... It's too late for you to step back now. ”

Because she was suppressing the demon, she didn't really want to fight Lihid right now.

The wings of the little butterfly finally began to make waves, and this duel city deviated greatly from the original book, and she didn't even dare to determine whether the game got the Sky Dragon, plus the brainwashing plot later......

If Lihid had fallen in the midst of this war, the madman would have been released early, and the devil knows what he would have done.

"I don't know what you're having, and I don't want to know." Liched was unmoved.

"All I know is that we are the enemy, and the enemy must be destroyed." He approached Li Bai and wanted to force her to retreat towards the underground garage, "Those mercenaries who licked blood from the knife edge agreed not to do it themselves because of my order, and you don't want the previous situation to happen again, right?" ”

Li Bai had no choice.

According to Nit's report, there were more than a dozen guns pointed at them, and Nate also said that it was difficult to fully protect against so many threats.

The group came to the inside of the garage, where there were not many vehicles unexpectedly, leaving a large area for them.

"Don't be suspicious, there's no explosives on the top or on the ground." Liched said as he turned back to the people who were looking around.

"Who knows if your words are credible." Li Bai replied angrily.

She didn't want to be bombed again, although Nette was around this time, but this kind of thing has never been 100% sure, and no one likes to gamble.

"The fact that the organization can let me and Nightmare deal with you is proof that you won't have any more chances this time." Although Lihid is not the king of card hunting, but because he is Malik's most trusted cronies, and his own strength is also extremely strong, the nightmare doesn't even dare to say a word by his side, they stand at two ends, and Li Bai and the others are in a triangular confrontation.

"In order to save time, the tournament will take the form of doubles." Liched began to explain the rules.

"Each side has to send two people, sharing 4,000 LP points, and the rest follows the rules of the international format, here is me and Nightmare, you can also decide the manpower." He looked at Joker and added, "You'd better get rid of her, I don't like fighting traitors." ”

"Lord Lichd......" Joker opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

"Joker......" Li Bai was a little unworthy of this girl, and when she duel with her before, she could see that Joker did not have a rebellious heart towards Malik, but Gurus did not hesitate to abandon her in order to put himself to death.

But this is not something she can control, this tournament is a muddy water, and she still has to work hard for the quarterfinals...... I really don't have the energy to worry about others.

"So Nit, please advise?" Li Bai stood across from the nightmare and turned his head to show a bright smile to Nit.

The girl who had told her many secrets and healed her arm...... Now she can be said to be the person she trusts the most, and the level of dueling is also very strong, although there are unexpected reasons, but she did defeat her once, and she naturally makes no secret of her affection for Nit.

"No problem, Your Highness!" The black-haired girl had just run to stand opposite Liched, and when she heard this, she immediately patted her chest, which was not very old, and looked like she was at home, "Leave it to me!" ”

"Humph!" A roar suddenly sounded in the girl's ears, sounding full of resentment.

Li Bai immediately couldn't laugh.
