Chapter 4: The First Confrontation with the Masked Man

Foreword: DIY Rune Card Deck, my own DIY card deck on OW. http://www./bbs/showtopic-118194.aspx

"There's something weird."

Wuxiang was originally walking in front, but Long Chaoyan behind her suddenly said something, so she stopped and turned her head to look at him.

"The Masked Man is a Dark Duelist, but you escaped from him?"

"Are you doubting my dueling skills?"

"That's not what it meant."

In the first round of the previous league, forcing the opponent to the point of almost surrendering, and finally losing without using a magic card that can draw five cards, it is definitely just a matter of reservation and not technical inferiority.

However, Kirika didn't have any explanation for this: "Just know." ”

Long Chaoyan asked again: "Since you won, then Guo Wei's soul ......"

"I didn't have a duel."

Long Chaoyan was stunned: "No duel? ”

"Yes."

Long Chaoyan was just about to ask.

"The masked man said that I was somehow the same kind of person as him, so he wouldn't find me."

"It's a simple reason."

"That's right."

By this time, they had reached the edge of the central dueling arena, which was now empty and ruins except for a few days ago.

"You think he's going to hide inside?"

"I don't know, let's go inside."

Long Chaoyan shrugged, looking helpless.

If the masked man is really so easy to find, it is really a waste of the title and image of the masked man.

In addition, the person who can win the duelist of the Competitive City is also a duelist of the Competitive City, so it must be the kind of captain-level or the deck used is different from the original.

However, Wuxiang didn't mean to stay, opened the door of the audience area and stepped up the stairs, and Long Chaoyan followed, but there were only red and blue seats around, and there was no figure in the middle of the venue.

Hiding in the basement would not be possible either, as it was locked, as the two confirmed at the basement door.

"How? Not here, right? ”

"There are no clues at all, how can I check?" Misty Fragrance was slightly unhappy, "The last time he appeared was in the Southern District, but not now. ”

"Why don't I go back and see Guo Wei's situation first?"

Wuxiang didn't speak, it seems that she agreed, and now there is no better place to go, maybe it's not a dark duel, Guo Wei has woken up?

However, Kirika also knew that such thoughts would definitely be fruitless, at least she knew that if the soul was sucked away, it would be impossible for people to wake up.

"Are there any other clues?"

In Long Chaoyan's words, there were indeed no other clues.

"Just hang out."

"This place is so dangerous, the sky is full of birds and beasts, you still dare to wander outside?"

"Isn't the masked man out there too?"

Long Chaoyan said helplessly: "Then I'll go back first." ”

Long Chaoyan walked step by step from the partition space of the seat table to the exit, and Wu Xiang looked at the locked door and fell into deep thought.

There are really no other clues, not even the purpose of the masked man. Masked people absorb other people's souls, can't they take pleasure in it, right?

Could it be that when you move in space, you will be controlled by the leader of this world? And then carry out the inside and outside cooperation, and attack the competitive city?

Or maybe when you transfer the world, like yourself, you recover some or even all of your memories, so you have a sense of hatred and take revenge?

Could it be that when he was transferring the world, he went crazy and began to find people to duel everywhere to absorb the soul?

The third is something she can't even think of, and the only people who can do a dark duel are ...... However, if this is the case, why didn't the masked man propose a duel when he came face to face with the masked man? If that's the case, the masked man's plan will either go bankrupt or be discovered so quickly, and indeed, if Kirika is eliminated, no one will want to wander outside and discover his plot.

What about the second possibility? If the memory is restored, then the sense of hatred should be directly found to Tao Jianyu, not Guo Wei. Because Wuxiang probably also knows that almost all the people in this city are people brought by Tao Jianyu from various eras or places and deleted their memories, so in the second case, Guo Wei is also a victim, why attack Guo Wei, who is also a victim? Could it be because Guo Wei did not recover his memory, so that the masked man thought that Guo Wei was Tao Jianyu's accomplice, so as to take revenge? Indeed, the masked man said that he didn't do it to recover part of his memory and understand it. But how can the masked man tell that Kirika has regained a part of her memory? Is it just because Kirika likes to hang out? It's so special!

The first possibility is why the master or the mastermind behind this world would choose the masked man alone, instead of controlling everyone, is it because the power is too small to control only one person? So does the masked man mean that he is behind the scenes if he does not do anything to himself? How did the mastermind behind the scenes know Wuxiang? If it was Misty Incense as the controller, he would have killed all those who had already noticed it - in the form of a dark duel - but the masked man did not do so, indicating that he had some awareness. Is there too little power behind the scenes, or is it too human?

If you know who is behind the scenes, you must ask what is happening now, but no one in the original world would think that it is real.

Could it be, simply an outsider? Guo Wei's inference that the masked man is an acquaintance is just an inference, first of all, although the masked man wears a mask and uses a voice changer, it may also be to keep people from impressing, so that he can run away after he loses, and not let Guo Wei say that his face makes people impression, which affects his implementation of the plan?

If you are an outsider, you will definitely not live in any dwelling or team house in the form of a duelist in the Competitive City.

Then the only place where you can hide, have a large range of action, and have no one yet......

This central grand dueling arena.

But there's no one here.

Look at the locked door in front of you. A few days ago, she came out of here, and was applauded by the cheering crowd!

"Huh? This door is...... By the way, there are other entrances in the basement! In the ......"

Broadcasting studio!

Everyone was coming down from the studio!

The seats in this central Grand Dueling Hall are raised in one tier, while there are a total of 4 exits, all at intervals between the seating areas. The broadcast studio is next to one of the exits, probably near the city hall, which is where the exit was.

Thinking about it, Wu Xiang couldn't see Long Chaoyan's figure anymore, so he had to walk to the exit alone, and then look to the right.

"Great, the door to this room is not locked."

When you open the door and go in, there is a pungent smell inside, it seems that this place has windows but they are closed, and dust accumulates faster than other places.

Even if you use it, you should open the window, are you afraid that someone will come in through the window?

There were only a few broadcast equipment, such as microphones, and it was just a small room, and there was a door in addition to the basement door, which presumably led directly from the seating area to the duel area in the middle. Kirika remembered which basement door it was, so she pushed the door in.

Here is the staircase down the stairs that have already been walked once, and if memory serves, there should be some benches underneath.

Although there was no hope, Kirika still walked down very carefully, for fear that the masked man would suddenly rush out and knock him unconscious.

After walking down, I saw a lot of benches, and it seemed that my memory was correct, and on the right was the staircase to go upstairs, which should be the location below the seating area I saw before I arrived.

Farther forward, at the edge of the wall, stood a man in a blue robe and a mask.

"Hehehehe." The laughter of the mechanical sound, echoing here, is creepy.

"I didn't think you'd be able to find this place." The masked man laughed, "Why do you think I'm hiding here?" ”

"Because there's no one outside, where else can you go but here without being discovered? Do you sleep on the streets? ”

"Since you're looking for me, what's the matter?"

"Of course. You know what I'm looking for you. ”

Looking at the expressionless appearance of the other party, the masked man no longer played dumb riddles: "Then, let's fight it out." ”

"That's what I mean." Kirika showed the dueling plate, and the folded dueling disc immediately unfolded, and Kirika also put the deck on it.

"Duel!"

"I'll attack first!" The masked man took the first attack, "My round draw card, I will talk about the two magic cards of the deceased Susheng and Runebeast-Agility in the hand card and discard them to the graveyard and summon the rune master specially!" (5-Star Attack 2000)"

An old man also wearing a blue robe appeared on the field.

"The attack power of the rune master was originally 2000, but when summoned through his own effect, the attack power is 500 plus 500 times the number of magic cards discarded, but at most three magic cards are discarded, so the maximum attack power is 2000. (Attack 1500)"

Wuxiang secretly thought: What is that guy doing when he throws the dead back to the cemetery?

"Then I'll just keep moving, the Rune Master's special effect will be activated, the enemy controllers in the deck will be excluded from the game, and I will be able to add this card to my hand when the opponent launches the Rush Magic Card. Next, summon the beginner runemaster! (3-Star Attack 1700)"

Reappearing is a young man in a green robe, holding a book. Listening to the name of the monster, people can't help but think that it is a "rune book".

"End of round." (Hand Card 2)

"My round gacha! I don't think the first strike will do you any favors, because ......"

"Your Venue Card Broken City can destroy all the cards on my field?"

Kirika was stunned, but thought that he didn't know if it was an acquaintance or if he somehow learned about his deck tactics, and didn't ask him why he knew. But in terms of the character of the fog incense, there are not many acquaintances, and the only people who can fully know the situation of their card deck are the other two in the team, but looking at the figure, it is obvious that it is not... Thinking of her suspicion of the friends around her, Kirika shook her head. It must have been the outsiders who learned about their deck tactics through other means.

"When I don't have any monsters on the field, the Breaker Warlock is specially summoned! (4-Star Defense 0) and pay 800 LP to summon a Destruction token! (2 Stars: Defense 0) Sacrifice tokens and Destruction Warlocks to summon the Broken Remains! (7-Star Attack 2800)"

Huge dinosaur fossils appeared, looking fragile, but the attack power of 2800 was no joke.

"Next, activate the Future of Destruction of the Perpetual Magic Card, which adds three Destruction counters when the Future of Destruction is activated, and can remove one counter to prevent the effect of a monster with a broken name from being destroyed. The attack power of the Broken Remains increases the number of destroyed counters on the field by multiplying it by 100. (Attack Power 3100)"

"Attack power 3100?"

"Go, ruined remains attacking the beginner runemaster!"

The huge skeleton bit down and shattered the beginner runemaster. (Masked Man LP2600)

"You actually chose to attack monsters with higher attack power?"

"Because." Kirika explained coldly, "For every 800 monster attack power of the Shattered Remains attack, you can restore my 800 base points twice, and then add the number of destruction counters of these times to this card!" (2)" (Kirika LP4800)

"I see. To restore health and help yourself with counter tactics? But you've done me a great favor! The Beginner Runemaster effect is activated! If it is destroyed in battle, exclude a magic card from the graveyard from the game, and add that card to the hand when the opponent activates the same type of magic card! I choose, the dead come alive! ”

"What ......"

"Hehe, this is my rune card deck, how about it, do you have a way to break my tactic of constantly adding magic cards to my hand?"
