Chapter 349: Seahorses Watching the Heavens at Night?
Since the president has invited him so sincerely, You Yu decided to give him a face and attend the game for him.
This is not entirely to save face for President Haima, and attending the competition is also beneficial to You Yu himself. For example, to increase exposure, maintain your reputation among players, and by the way, advertise new decks, and promote new card boxes in the private shop......
...... It's not to help that awkward guy in the seahorse.
Well, yes, that's it. Anyway, You Yu himself believed it.
According to the experience of You Yu's previous life, this KC competition is different from the previous duel city competition during the closed beta period.
At that time, the closed beta of Duel City had just begun, and players were still holding the pile of mortal bone cards with no combat power in their hands.
As the saying goes, it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, even if she is an old card guy, she can't play flowers if she doesn't have a card in her hand.
In addition, the NPCs in the top eight of Duel City are all bigwigs with backgrounds, and players can't get any benefits in their hands at all, and it is difficult to get into the top eight.
In the end, there was only a certain acrobatic European Emperor Xuelang, who squeezed into the top eight with an entertainment-oriented elemental hero......
But the game has been open for so long, especially after all players have experienced the main story of the Orehagang chapter and received a lot of rich rewards, some of the top elite players have more or less gotten a slightly more combat-ready deck, which will definitely pose more threats.
In addition, as an original chapter of the anime, although the contestants in the KC Cup Grand Prix are said to be "powerful duelists" from all over the world, the quality level of the players has actually declined visibly compared to the duel city.
All the contestants in the Duel City Quarterfinals will be known as the "legendary duelist" in later generations, and in comparison, the KC Cup in the original work is a bit of a rookie pecking at each other......
In this context, You Yu has no doubt that there will definitely be many elite players who will be able to stand out, and it is not impossible to even enter the finals.
When it comes to the KC Cup, there is one more thing.
There must be intrigue in big events, which is common sense in any anime work. But fortunately for the president of Seahorse, here You Yu already knew in advance who was trying to make trouble this time.
Because it was just a gesture, You Yu thought about it and felt that it was better to simply take advantage of the fact that the competition had not yet started and eliminate this potential threat for the president.
......
Deep in the forest, there is a luxurious palace with a luxurious bathtub in the hall.
Uniformed, well-trained maids surrounded like soldiers standing guard on duty. A man with long pink hair and a naked head was lying elegantly in the bathtub, still holding a rose in his hand.
He got up from the tub with a "whoosh" and spread his arms.
The beautiful maids and young ladies hurriedly gathered around, some with towels to help him dry himself, some helped him blow his hair, and some waited by the side with clean clothes.
In this situation, the pink-haired man had no distractions in his heart, and he did not react physically......
...... Even his mind is full of men.
"Seahorse Seto!"
The pink-haired man smiled wickedly, sniffing the roses on his hands.
I don't know what to do, maybe I think he has some bad relationship with the president of Seahorse......
His name is Jik Lloyd, whose real name is Chigufried von Schured, and he is the chairman of the European Lloyd Entertainment Group.
He and Seahorse first met when they were both very young. At that time, Ji Ke attended a banquet hosted by the Seahorse Company with his parents, and the young Ji Ke performed in front of the little Seahorse and hacked into the computer control program of the Seahorse Company, which made the little president admire him.
The original Lloyd consortium was actually the same as the Haima Group, both of which started with arms, both of which were world-renowned arms giants.
However, as the so-called peers are enemies. The Lloyd consortium has been maliciously suppressed by the Haima Group in its development, and they really can't compete with the Haima Group in terms of weapon technology. In the end, the chairman of the consortium, Jike's father, died of overwork, and the company was on the verge of bankruptcy.
The young Jike was ordered to take over the banner of the company. He judged that in the arms industry, with the suppression of the Haima Group, it would be difficult for them to turn over for the rest of their lives, so he waved his hand and made a very bold decision-
——Our company will not sell arms from now on, but will vigorously develop the chess and card business!
In short, his policy is, can't we afford to provoke and hide?
The cake of the arms market was simply given up and given to the Haima Group, and they had to find another way out in the chess and card field.
Then, just as Jike was desperately throwing all that was left of the company into the realm of the recently emerging dueling monsters, a shocking news came from the board of directors one day.
"Report !!"
An employee barged in in a panic, like one of those little demons who said "Sun Monkey is knocking on the door".
"President! The new president of the Haima Group, Haima Seto, just announced at the press conference that they will no longer sell arms, and they will go all out to develop the dueling monster business in the future! ”
Jike was a mouthful of old blood at the time.
The arms field of labor-management meow can't go on to develop chess and cards, and you hippocampus people ™ rub a hammer to be lively?
Isn't it fragrant to sell your tank artillery well?
However, even so, there is no turning back for Jike. He got up early and went to bed late every day, devoted himself wholeheartedly to his work, and engaged in scientific research and development day and night......
...... Then he was beaten by the president.
Not only did the Seahorse Company develop the stereoscopic projection system of the dueling monster earlier than him, but it also threw off his equipment in terms of performance, cost, and convenience.
Seahorse preemptively signed a contract with the International Fantasy Society, and their Lloyd consortium lost to their grandmother's house again......
This revenge is not a gentleman!
Thinking of this, Jike showed a cruel smile.
He had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
Haima has suffered successive blows, and now it is the most critical juncture. The KC Cup is a move to revive the Haima Group, if it can make this Grand Prix yellow and stink, and cause a little more large-scale accident, Haima will definitely collapse.
At that time, their Lloyd Consortium may also have a chance to regain their position and replace Seahorse Corporation as the giant of the dueling monster world!
Jike even has the script ready. First of all, he will disguise himself as an ordinary contestant to infiltrate the competition, take the opportunity to hack into the system of Seahorse Company, lure Seahorse Seto to come forward, defeat the opponent head-on in the duel field that the other party is most proud of, and then completely collapse the server of the entire dueling monster system of Seahorse Company......
Just as he was thinking about it, a panicked man ran in from outside the palace.
"Luo ...... Lord Lloyd! The butler looked flustered, "Your application to participate in the KC Cup has been rejected by the organizers!" ”
“!”
Jike was taken aback.
Rejected?
How can it be?
Seahorse Seto shouldn't have a reason to remember himself, right?
No, even if Seahorse Seto remembers himself, he shouldn't have any reason to know that he plans to go to the KC Cup to make trouble?
Jike frowned, snorted, took the goblet handed by the maid next to him, and took a sip of red wine gracefully.
Although he doesn't know how the plan leaked the news, it seems that he has underestimated the vigilance of Seahorse Seto a little.
But it doesn't matter, really good conspirators will always have a backup plan.
He also has a foolproof hole card, a real killer feature.
It was his younger brother, Wren Wilson.
Wren Wilson was actually a pseudonym made up by his younger brother himself, and his initial purpose was to secretly go out to participate in various dueling tournaments without telling the family, but he was later seen through by his brother Jike.
Wren is not only a talented duelist whose dueling talent far surpasses that of Jike, but he has also won championships in several major tournaments under this pseudonym, and has been considered a well-known figure in the dueling world over the years.
What's more, no one knows that Wren's true identity is that of their Lloyd family.
If his younger brother Rennes were to attend the KC Cup, absolutely no one would doubt his identity. At that time, as long as the virus program is handed over to Wren, let Wren be his right-hand man, replace him in the KC Cup, and paralyze the system of Seahorse Company, the result will be the same......
Then I saw another person running in from outside the main hall in a panic.
"Luo ...... Lord Lloyd! The man shouted, "Young Master's application to participate in the KC Cup...... I was also rejected by the organizers! ”
Jike squirted out a mouthful of red wine on the spot, and the picture really looked a bit like a mouthful of old blood.
"What!?" Jike was stunned.
Wren was also rejected?
It doesn't make sense!
Could it be that he watched the sky at night and predicted that I was going to do something?
