Chapter 14: The Challenge (3)
The arena on the first floor of the main academic building.
The atmosphere in the audience, which was supposed to be full of life, was very strange at the moment, most of them were either staring at the ring or arguing fiercely with their companions, the scene was very chaotic on the whole, and there were even people who were dissatisfied with the team they supported shouting and scolding.
The score was 0-14 on the big screen, with the home team in front and the away team in the back...... This may explain why they are so out of shape, the core campus has lost fourteen people in a row, while the challenger side is unscathed, which is an achievement that the core campus has never encountered in the years since its establishment, and no challenger has ever beaten them so badly in such a crushing posture...... In particular, the girl named Lilith still had the same indifferent expression as when the competition first started, as if the great feat of killing fourteen people in a row was a trivial matter, which undoubtedly made the students in the core campus feel ashamed and angry.
"The Book of Magic...... Is it a new series that Mr. Becas has only recently secretly launched? In the top row of the South Stand, Modi Clayson frowned and looked blankly at his partner who was sitting next to him. He is the real chairman of the dueling club of the Haima Group, and he took the club to become the league champion of the Asian A League last year, and he was in the limelight for a while, and Kronos, who was asked by him, did not dare to slack off at all, and quickly shook his head and said that he didn't know.
It's not an excuse, it's that he really doesn't know...... The card creator has never concealed a whole set of new cards, but whenever there is a series of innovations, he will always publish the notification information on his personal webpage as soon as possible, so that others can have a psychological preparation, so his personal webpage has always had a high number of visits, and many people who care about card duels have the habit of opening that webpage to browse the latest news before going to bed, and Kronos is no exception, he dares to swear that he didn't see the news of the new series before going to bed last night- There wasn't even a notice of what's coming, and the set of decks casually called the "Magic Book" was just like the light path that had appeared before, so how could he find out?
"Is it possible...... The origin of this deck is also the same as that of the light path back then. If Li Bai was also sitting here, she would surely recognize for the first time that the person who said this was her old acquaintance, the man who had invited her to his daughter's birthday dinner in London, England, Wayne Thomas.
"Vane, you're not kidding." Claeson laughed and patted his friend on the shoulder, "Don't sue me that you still believe that the series of Light Path is from another dimension...... How could such a thing happen? Mr. Becas is indeed talented, and he is the only one who can make up such interesting excuses, all right...... Now that you have been officially knighted by Her Majesty the Queen, it is better to get rid of those ignorant occupational diseases in the past? Otherwise, I don't guarantee that other people will laugh at you as bluntly as I do, and they will definitely put their hands like a camera and click at you...... Hahahaha! ”
"Yes, yes...... But there may be one thing you don't notice, and that is that in fact, your mockery is also very special......" Depressed wiping his face, Vane continued to focus on the red-haired girl in the venue, he saw the shadow of an old man in the other party's behavior, this feeling is actually ridiculous, because whether it is height, appearance, temperament or dueling habits, they are very different, but he always can't help but think of the white-haired girl who once ascended the throne in the duel city.
Is it because they're all the same? Or do you all use new series that have not been recorded at all?
Wayne didn't know what he was thinking, maybe Claeson was right, he really should be okay to think less about the unrealistic.
Two years ago, because of his report on card duels and his close relationship with the Seahorse Group, the Queen of England granted him the title of knighthood, and he finally got rid of the hat of eating soft rice before, and fulfilled what can be said to be the childhood dream of most Britons and became an urban nobleman.
Although he has not fully adapted to this change of identity until now, the habit of anything takes time, Vane is currently living a very stable life, as a knight he no longer needs to run around the news as before, nor does he need to review manuscripts, his daughter Shankley is 9 years old, obedient and sensible, has skipped 2 levels in a row, and is currently preparing to apply for a junior high school in London, so he doesn't need to interfere at all...... So he didn't lack time at all, and it wasn't the first time he had watched other campuses challenge the core campus.
"I didn't feel anything when I was busy before, but now I feel like I'm getting old when I'm free......" Leaning back in the chair, Vane sighed as he watched Lilith defeat the fifteenth person cleanly, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly, "Modi, do you think I'm also a disease?" ”
"Of course it's sick, and it's not light." Modi Clayson gave Kronos an apologetic smile to his right, and then continued to turn his head away to chat with his friend, "Look...... Last time I said I wanted to find you something to do, but you refused, and now the retribution is coming. ”
"Mo Di, I really don't have the talent to be a team leader...... How many times do you want me to say it? Wayne laughed, pretending to be angry and elongated his tone, "The leader of a club can't write a few broken articles, and I can't take the medical team and the analysis team of the subordinate branch well, and you still want to drag me to lead a group of duelists...... Okay, if you're not afraid that I'll relegate Lanjing Tong Shiye to Asia B next season, why don't I promise you? ”
"You don't need to worry about management at all, what are you afraid of?" Hearing that he had a serious intention to mention it, Clayson gradually straightened his attitude, Vane covered his face, he knew that the other party was about to start lobbying again, "I admit that I did invite you because I wanted to use the relationship between you and 'her'...... But now I'm not just thinking like that, you know, Wayne? I'm really optimistic about your talent, you have that potential, you have to believe in yourself, you care too much about other people's eyes...... Look at the guy with the COS skeleton knight on the other side, he hasn't peeled off the turtle shell until now, you should really learn more from his indifference. ”
There was an uproar that vein was about to retort, and he and Claeson turned their heads to see that it was the core campus that had been brushed off again, 0-16, and they had to ask for a timeout.
"Your school has been undefeated in the challenge tournament for so long, and this year looks dangerous......" Claisson looked sympathetically at Cronos beside him.
"Now there are only four people left."
"This ...... Well...... "Kronos' face was stiff, his forehead and temples were covered with sweat, and he had to take out a handkerchief and wipe it on his face," he said...... This kind of thing is always going to be broken, so it's actually normal to lose one in this year's challenge......"
"But you shouldn't accept a score of 0-20, right?" Claeson looked dissatisfied with his answer, "I am on your side with the trust I have in you, and if the result of today's game is really 0-20, I am afraid that I will have to consider whether to bring in students from your school next season." ”
Others didn't even have time to hug the thighs of the core campus, but his words and posture were very tough, because he himself was also the real power of the Haima Group, and Lanjing Tong Shiye was directly subordinate to the Haima Group, so he would not be afraid of the Haima Group behind the college, and the win-win relationship between him and the core campus was still mutually beneficial for the time being.
In the past few years, Seahorse Seto's feelings have always been capricious, no matter what he has in his heart, he does not dare to openly provoke the high-level.
"Yes? 0-20 is really too much to say...... I think that our students will take the opportunity of this pause to stop the girl from ...... saying the word "definitely", Cronos's tone is quite empty, which shows that he himself doesn't believe it, for no other reason, it is really that Lilith's strength is too strong, with his years of teaching experience, the other party is definitely qualified to appear on the recent Gordon Index list.
But how could such a threatening person have only recently emerged?
Summoning and reversing [Magic Scrivener Bather] is used to retrieve magic cards with [Magic Book] in their names, and then use the iron walls of the balanced attack of the subordinates of the magic books with different effects:
【Upanishads】Retrieve 1 card with [Upanishads] in a name other than [Upanishads] from your deck and add it to your hand.
【Book of Magic】Select 1 monster of the magic envoy on your field and increase its attack power by 1000 until the end of the round, and when the monster defeats the opponent's monster, you can retrieve 1 magic card with "magic book" in the name from the deck to add to your hand.
You can activate it when you have a magic spell on your field, show the other party a card with "magic book" in the name other than this card, and choose the usual magic of a "magic book" in the graveyard other than [Magic Book of Creation Zào] to activate, and the effect of this card becomes the same as the effect of the selected card.
[Wax Tablet's Magic Book]: Choose an excluded card from [Wax Table's Magic Book] with "Magic Book" in your name to add to your hand.
[Necromantic Magic Book] Except for 1 monster of the magic envoy clan in his own graveyard, one of the cards in his hand other than this card can be activated by showing the other party ["Magic Book" magic, and the attack table on the side of the monster table that chooses to save zài in the graveyard is a special summon and equips this card, except for the value of the monster's level that goes up.
【Book of Law】Select 1 Magician Monster on the field and activate one of the following effects: ● This turn, the chosen monster is not affected by the effects of magic cards other than this card. ● This turn, the chosen monster is not affected by the effects of the trap card.
【Evil Spirit's Magic Book】When there are magician monsters on your own field, you can only activate them with up to 3 magic cards with "magic book" in your graveyard except for them in the game. The following effects apply to the number of magic cards that are activated for this card. Only one copy of the Evil Spirit's Book can be activated in 1 turn. ●1 card: 1 Magic Trap Card placed on the cover of the selection field back to the holder's hand. ●Two sheets: One monster on the field becomes the inside guard indication or the table side attack indication. ●3 cards: Choose one card on the opponent's field from the game.
“…… In addition, a field magic [Magic Academy-Myrazon] with a recycling cemetery magic book and equal to +1 number of card draws per round, this system is equivalent to what you want, in the face of powerful subordinates, you can use the water divination book to increase the attack power to defeat you, and in the face of the fold, you can use the law book to escort it, and in the face of the boss, you can simply use the evil spirit book to exclude it...... Mystery Yi, Chuangzào, and Wax Plate are enhanced to the ability to recover and retrieve all magic books, and according to the different situations on the field, you can make up for what you lack, and all the previous battles of that girl are like this, plain and bland, not panicking, and after finding the opponent's weakness, supplement the magic guide book that can be targeted, and the final blow is fatal. Wayne made his opinion clear to Kronos at the right time, he has come here to watch the challenge so many times, and he has met a lot of acquaintances in the school, and his heart is still towards the core campus.
"With all due respect, Professor." He looked at Kronos through Klaeson and pointed to the red-haired girl standing in the spotlight, "If you can't break this 'chain loop,' it's impossible to defeat her, and this new set is at least an era ahead of most current decks, and it's not something that dueling power alone can make up for." ”
Li Bai cautiously stared at the core campus players who were gathering under the ring to discuss tactics, including Kagurazaka's figure.
(There are no interferences, interruptions, or restrictions, so it's not easy to stop this chain loop, and the deck that can spell the slow beat with the magic book shouldn't exist now...... The only way to defeat her is to use a deck like Hikari or Electro to play the speed difference, but now Kagurazaka has been banned by me from using Hikarachi...... )
(and...... The limit of the Magic Book is far more than that, it can also reach a higher and more terrifying level. )
Her hair began to tingle, and several fragments of memories that were so distant came to mind.
(If that girl named Lilith had the power of the "Divine Judgment" in her hand, even if I regained the power of my heyday, I might not be able to take it down...... This. )
"Who is she?"
She wasn't the only one who wanted to know the answer to this question, Cronos, Modi Claeson, Vane Thomas, and several other trustees and several other dueling clubs were also puzzled by this - even the people of the expeditionary force were staring at Lilith who could even be described as stupid before, how could they not have discovered that their classmates were so strong before??
Now, I'm afraid only Burgess, the principal of the Northern Branch, can still laugh, yes...... This girl was picked up by him on an ice field half a year ago, and he was defeated in a duel with him, and the other party refused to reveal his origins, but agreed to temporarily join his school as a cadet, and the requirements were very simple, that is, he had to promise her to take her to the core campus as soon as he had the opportunity, which is here.
So of course he knew how strong Lilith was, and the other party's request seemed to him to be just a young man's yearning for a better future, and he didn't take it to heart...... However, in line with the principle of "making the best use of things", he made an agreement with the other party to ask Lilith to help the Northern Branch one last time, so that they could make a splash in this challenge.
And the reality is almost as he hoped.
"Most of the students who can threaten Lilith's strength are already in the third year, and the first and second year students in the core campus have no one to compete with Lilith except for that Kagurazaka, they are still growing up, and they can't take the lead alone...... And those sons and brothers are probably used to winning, and they are arrogant and put him in the last place, it can really be said that even fate is on my side! Burgess silently analyzed the situation, looking confident.
But as the saying goes, it's too good not to think about anything...... He must not have expected that at this moment, there would be one of the other team's contestants who likes to play cards that don't follow common sense.
"Why should we worry about her chain loops?" In the discussion camp on the edge of the ring, Yucheng Shiyo looked at the others with a confused expression, "Wouldn't it be okay to kill her monster and turn her LP into 0?" ”
“…… We're just talking about how to do that, ten generations! Misawa was discussing tactics with others, and when he heard this, he raised his head and angrily murdered him, "Don't mess around!" ”
Just look at the other people who are glaring at the Ten Generations to know that his temper is already okay, especially those who have been defeated and are eager to carry out a direct attack on the Ten Generations at the physical level - if it is really as easy as you say, wouldn't those of us who have been aggrieved and hung up become weak scum?
"You bunch of shitty can't discuss anything anyway, so why don't you just let him try." A haughty voice came from the side.
This speech is even more sarcastic than that of the tenth generation, and it is equivalent to a slap in the face...... Someone wanted to denounce something, but it was Kagurazaka who saw it...... Immediately buried his head again.
Whether the reputation is good or bad, it can bring prestige to a person.
"This person can beat me in the entrance examination, he must be better than you waste, I think what he said is not wrong at all, just go and do it, isn't it over, is it useful to discuss it here? Did you know that to outsiders, it looks like a flock of frightened ostriches escaping reality? ”
“…… The face of the core campus is going to be disgraced by you!! ”
