Chapter 11: The War Resumes
It's been three full months since the museum's visit.
Because he was making the final test for the mass listing of the duel disk, and was well acquainted with the power of the God Card, Seahorse never came back during this time, and he was in the KC Mansion along with food and accommodation.
There are more and more duelists in Tong Shino City, and they all gathered after getting the news on the official website.
[Go to the place where the ancient duelists and stone tablets are inscribed...... The time is March 25th]
That's the message that leads them.
Today is March 23rd, and there is only one day left before that day arrives.
In a gloomy alley, a young girl in a black shirt, a black leather skirt, and black six-point cotton leggings is skillfully rummaging through the wallet of the poor man at her feet.
"Yan ......" Li Bai's helpless voice sounded in Tianguang Yan's mind, "We are not short of money...... Why do you have to rummage through their clothes every time? β
"You know a yarn." Tianguangyan's rummaging action did not pause because of this, she took out the money as usual and threw off the wallet, and stepped on the unlucky man twice, "This is called loot, it is a harvest that belongs to us alone, it is a symbol of glory, and the pocket money that your brother gave you is not a nature at all, stupid!" β
"And ......," she straightened up, slamming her long white hair vigorously, "what do you want to make trouble by leaving compassion to Gurus?" β
Ah, yes, this unlucky guy who was trampled on the soles of her feet was a member of the Gurus.
Although the duel city has not officially begun, these Leyaka hunters who usually lurk in the shadows are like sharks swarming in the smell of blood, and they can't wait for the game to start - there are already news from time to time that the duelists have been defeated and snatched the Leyaka, and the system and the Light Path Altar have issued some tasks according to this situation, and they are doing these things these days.
"Isn't there already a system to reward the loot...... Li Bai muttered quietly, she still disagreed with this kind of corpse-robbing behavior.
"And I don't think it has anything to do with glory......"
"Ahh Flame! Speaking of this, she seemed to suddenly realize something, "Do you care about the fact that my brother gave me all the money instead of you?" β
"It's okay, I don't know what your past is, but we're all one now, don't worry about that kind of detail!"
The more she thought about it, the more she realized that this was actually the case, and that Flame must have planned to use what she had obtained from "herself" when she was in charge of her body because of her self-esteem and shame.
"Stupid...... A sucker! Who cares about that kind of thing! Tianguangyan's face was slightly red, obviously very unwilling to discuss this kind of topic with the girl in depth, she decided to say something to divert the other party's train of thought: "Putting this aside for the time being, how is the progress of our deck now?" β
The lion wizard lay on the top of the girl's head and couldn't help but open one eye when he heard this.
So obviously diverted from the topic?
"Huh?" Li Bai blinked and made a thoughtful expression, "I remember that last time I harvested an exclusive trap for the Light Path, and this time the reward is...... Huh! I can't remember, you wait, I'll check it out......"
"Isn't it? Is this okay? The lion wizard said that he couldn't bear it, and directly took the case.
"This chick is really right, white, you're so stupid and sad."
"You slapped me on the head, stinky lion!" Tianguang Yan pulled it off his head, "I didn't shake your head so hard just now, but I was lying on your stomach very firmly." β
"Who are you talking about the chick you just said, me?"
"Of courseβit can't be!" The lion wizard was lifted by the girl and slipped in the air, and stretched out his right hand with a stern face, "I solemnly swear to the sky, I am referring to Li Bai." β
"You sold me like this!" Only then did Li Bai realize that he seemed to have been struck by one person and one favor, "Dead lion, what kind of hero are you like this!" β
"Do you know how to write the word loyalty? It doesn't matter if I don't know, I sue you, there are four ways to write it, which are ......"
"You dare to teach me half a bottle of vinegar......" the lion man and witch were happy.
"Do you know how the Armstrong Gyro Acceleration Jet Armstrong cannon works? It doesn't matter if you don't know, this god tells you sΓΉ ......"
"I don't need a pet to teach me, you idiot lion with all his facial features in his mouth!"
"You're not the same! A stupid rabbit with white hair and red eyes! β
"Alright...... Don't argue," Tianguangyan's eyelids jumped, she really couldn't stand the quarrel of these two second-class goods every day.
And the last sentence seems to have scolded even her.
"Let's go back and change our clothes." She blew a big bubble with her gum and watched it pop with a snap, "The day after tomorrow is the day when the duel city begins, no matter how busy the seahorse is, he should go home tonight, if he sees you doing this punk dress up and hang out...... Uh-huh? β
"Oh no......"
================ ================= at 8:10 a.m. on March 25
ββClock Tower Plazaββ
Muto looked at the people around him strangely, and he was surprised to find that these people seemed to have the aura of a duelist.
"Strange situation...... And the blade-like device on their arms......" the game scratched his head, "I don't know where the castle went...... What a headache! β
"HI~ game, long time no see." Peacock Dance emerged from the crowd and waved at him.
"Apricot and Shiro, and how are they in the castle?"
"Dance?" The game looked at her in surprise, wondering why even she was here.
"They're fine...... Still, Mai, can I ask you a few questions. The game turned his head to look to the side, "Why is the atmosphere in this square so unusual?" I could feel that all the people around me should be duelists...... And they're wearing the same mechanism as you, what's going on? β
"Scared? Doesn't the game know about this competition...... Then why are you in this Clock Tower Square? Peacock Dance covered her mouth and looked at him in disbelief.
"Uh...... I'm just out shopping to see if there's a new game store opening. β
Peacock Dance was speechless, the guy in front of him obviously didn't know, but he was able to find this place by accident......
What a terrible intuition.
"Wait, duelists!"
At this moment, the face of the seahorse suddenly appeared on the big screen in the square of the clock tower, and everyone's attention was immediately attracted to him.
"Looks like the Lord has arrived...... It doesn't matter the game, don't worry. Peacock Dance put away the strength to explain, and stretched out his hand to point behind him: "There is a special work point there to serve emergencies like yours, as long as you have registered before and there is no problem with the information (the duelist level is greater than or equal to LV5), you can get a next-generation dueling disk like this for free there!" β
"Next-Gen Duel Disc! Is this device actually an improved dueling disc? The game sighed in surprise.
It had only been half a year since he first saw the first-generation dueling disc, and he looked at the equipment that looked so light on Peacock Dance's arm, and he couldn't connect it to the bloated disc before.
"It's amazing, it's hard to imagine that Seahorse can advance the technique of the Duel Disc to such a level in such a short period of time...... But that place is for those who have lost their dueling plates, and I haven't registered them before, so can I get them? β
"What ...... this?"
"Excuse me! You're Mr. Muto Games, right? Suddenly, a fat man in a black suit came running over with a box in his arms, and asked him happily after taking two looks at the game.
"I am, may I ask you ......"
"Great!" The fat man couldn't help but say, and threw the box directly into his arms, "We ran all over your home and school, but we didn't find your shadow, you must know that you are the duelist that the young master personally joined the list, if we can't participate in the competition because of our negligence, the young master Seto will definitely punish us severely!" β
The game watched as the fat man continued to gallop away, and only then did he have the time to carefully examine the slender box in his hand.
"It's ...... Duel discs? β
"Looks like you really don't need to worry anymore?" Peacock Dance gave him a thumbs up.
At this time, Seahorse's speech also happened to enter the key part.
ββ¦β¦ You are all the elite of the duelists, as you can tell from the dueling disc you wear! The sound of seahorses spread throughout the square.
"Now explain the rules!"
"As usual, each person fights with a 40-card deck; The tournament follows the rules of the international tournament, which means that monsters of LV4 level and above require sacrifices to be summoned, and there is an unwritten rule for this tournament...... That's the card system! β
"The winner will be able to choose a card from the loser's deck as a trophy! Yes! The winners will be able to build up their decks, while the losers will lose a single prize! β
"There are a total of 80 contestants this time (the original is 48, and more people are attracted here because of Li Bai's influence and Bekas's secret promotion), and in the end, only 8 duelists can advance to the semi-finals."
"The venue of the competition is the entire Tong Shino City, and there is a search function on the duel board, which will prompt you to the specific coordinates of the nearest other duel board."
"As for the location of the finalsβ" The seahorse on the big screen smiled and raised his left hand.
There, like everyone else, wore a dueling plate.
He took a transparent card from a groove in the dueling board, "Look at your dueling board, it should have a puzzle card like this on it, just like mine." β
"What is this? Looks like a map of Tong Shino City? "The game opens the box and discovers that there is indeed one such card on the dueling board.
The card is transparent throughout, with only a small map fragment in the center of it, which looks like a puzzle piece from the shape of the piece.
"This transparent card has been specially compressed." Seahorse holds the puzzle card and shows everyone, "As soon as you collect 10 puzzle cards and place them in the 10 normal card slots of the dueling board to activate it, a satellite will project the location of the semi-finals for you!" β
"So of course...... This card is also an additional wager in addition to the Lea card. β
"Fight your Rayaka and your glory!"
"Duelists!"
With all that to say, the image of the seahorse disappeared from the big screen.
It turns out that this is the case, and this puzzle card is also one of the bets......
The game looks at the duelists around him who are constantly cheering and howling, and silently places the dueling disc on his left arm.
"Looks like I'm here at the right time......" He smiled at Peacock Dance, looking up at the square.
"It looks like the game is finally catching up."
On the roof of a building in the northern part of the Clock Tower Square, Li Bai sat on the edge of the railing despite the danger, and she kicked her two calves while looking at the duelists in the square downstairs.
That idiot in the city should still be sleeping at home now, right?
"Forget it...... Anyway, that guy didn't have a legitimate way to participate in the game in the original book, and if you want to duel the game, it's a big deal to take a loser and give it to him. β
The girl shook her head, shook off the memories of that day in the museum and other tedious things, and stood up from the edge of the roof.
She opened her arms and looked down at the beautiful city that had not yet recovered from the hustle and bustle of the morning.
Tong Shiye...... From now on, the city will be a battlefield.
Dueling City, a battlefield for duelists.
