“Ah? He isn’t here?” At the Dream Card shop, Snow Wave and Fae were surprised, “Yuei-san went out?”
“Well, yes.” Chika, who was standing behind the counter, nodded lightly, “He went out early in the morning.”
The two looked at each other, and after a while, Fae asked, “Then… did he say when he would come back?”
“No, he didn’t. It might be a little late, I think.” Chika said, “He’s been running to Kaiba Corp for the past two days. He said that Kaiba Seto has something important to do with him, and he came back very late… .”
The eyes of the two players lit up, and they felt that they had received important information.
Kaiba Seto has something important to talk to Yuei Vu about? So they are very familiar?
Yuei Vu is really an important plot NPC!
This detail may be related to the main thread.
“Then… let’s wait for him to come back?” Snow Wave asked.
“…Wait!” Fae clenched his teeth.
Although every day in the Open Beta was very precious, it was better to wait for their golden thighs to come back instead of running around to find some trivial novice quests.
Now, Yuei Vu was the direct ticket for the two of them to enter the top of players. In any case, they must grab enough benefits before other players!
…but they might be disappointed in this.
Because while they were patiently staying in the store waiting for the return of their golden thigh, he had already run off to find other players…
……
Domino City, an open space in a park.
This park in Domino City was also a place frequented by duelists. Although this was not a dueling gym, thanks to the new generation of Duel Disks from Kaiba Corp, the era of needing a specific venue to play cards was a thing of the past.
As long as there was a Duel Disk, anyone could have an exciting duel at any time and anywhere.
At this moment, a large number of new players were gathering in the park.
“MMD, how do you play this game? The initial deck has only a bunch of Normies with low attack power. It’s hard to play against a passerby!”
“Help! Has anyone received the quest of ‘Complete an advance summoning in a duel with an NPC’? I don’t even have a monster whose level is higher than 4, how the hell do I complete this quest?”
“The quest I received asked to defeat an NPC once without taking any damage… I’ve exhausted my stamina and haven’t passed this quest yet. It’s impossible to pass this initial deck, which is full of Normies, right?”
“Being stuck in the novice quest, don’t you believe it…”
A group of novice players chatted and chatted for a while, and exchanged their game experience on the first day of the Open Beta. Suddenly someone cried out as if they had discovered a new continent.
“There are two NPCs dueling over there!”
The first reaction of all players who heard this shout was—what was so strange about a NPC’s duel?
Anyway, wasn’t it just a battle between Normies?
Although everyone only played a few duels on the first day of the Open Beta, players have basically figured out the level of duelists in this era.
The passerby NPCs that the players played against seemed to only summon one Normie per turn, just like the simple dueling bot in the traditional Yu-Gi-Oh game. There were very few spells and traps in the deck to match.
To say that these duelists were stronger than the players who only use the initial deck, it may be that some NPCs had some Normies with high attack power in their hands.
At this time, the players were all smug and confident and felt that when they got a rare card, even if they assembled a slightly higher-strength gimmick deck, they might not be able to kill the local duelists in this world.
At this time, someone shouted again: “Damn it! Look at that monster… does it look like Clayman?”
“Huh? Which Clayman?”
“Elemental HERO Clayman! You don’t even know that?
I suspect you are a cloud fan…”
“How can there be Clayman in the DM?”
The players quickly discovered Hua Dian.
A bunch of players in the square got news of each other and quickly gathered over, and soon saw the two NPCs who were dueling here.
Standing on the left was a non-mainstream uncle who looked very evil at first sight. He was dressed in a bright black jacket. The muscles on his arms were tattooed with an unknown monster pattern. Just by sight, anyone could tell that this guy was not easy to mess with.
Uncle’s LP was the untouched 4,000 points, and there were two low-star Normies on the field.
On the opposite side of this uncle…was an impressively handsome young NPC.
“Wow! That little brother is so handsome!”
Immediately, some female players began to have twinkle eyes… completely ignoring the resentful eyes of the boyfriend beside him.
“Wow, he’s really handsome! This art style… looks like the protagonist!”
“I feel like I’m in love…”
“You are a man, why did you follow these blondes?”
The players began to riot.
But handsome or not was not the primary factor to attract players, the key issue was not here.
“…Speaking of which, why does this NPC have Elemental HEROes in their hands? Shouldn’t there be such a series now?”
Needless to say, the one using the “Elemental HERO Clayman” was naturally Yuei Vu.
“My turn!” The non-mainstream uncle drew a card and laughed loudly, “Hahaha! This card will mark your defeat!
Because this turn you will see the trump card in my deck, a super rare and powerful monster! “
The uncle raised the card he had just drawn.
“I tribute the two monsters on my field!” The non-mainstream uncle shouted, “Come out, my most powerful monster – Red Ogre!”
There was a roar from the ground as if the black energy from the underworld erupted vigorously. The crimson ghost drilled out from the ground, jumped high in the air, and then landed on the ground with an extremely heavy slam.
It was a ghost that seemed to have come out of a legend, with black horns, strong muscles, and a black mace in his hand, with a ferocious image of grinning.
[Red Ogre, ATK 2800]
“The effect of Red Ogre is activated!” The non-mainstream uncle shouted, “When this card is Normal Summoned: I can send any number of cards from my hand to the Graveyard, then target the same number of cards on the field; return those targets to the hand!
I send two cards from my hand to GY, and returned the ‘Elemental HERO Clayman’, as well as the set card from your S/T zone to your hand! “
The Red Ogre danced with his mace, and a pitch-black whirlwind rolled up in the field. The gloomy airflow turned both Clayman and the set card in the S/T zone of Yuei Vu into a golden glow and blew it back into his hands, instantly clearing Yuei Vu’s field.
Some players were shocked: “Damn, holy light lance!?”
“Just a nefted holy light lance, the effect is somewhat similar.”
“This effect is very powerful in the DM! It should be a rare card, right?”
“Holy light lance” was the nickname of “Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier”, a Level 6 Synchro monster. Its effect was to discard any number of cards from the hand to the Graveyard and bounce the corresponding number of cards on the opponent’s field back to the owner’s hand.
Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier was also well-known, and it has been one of the most popular Synchro monsters for real card players for a long time in the past.
“In this way, your field will be completely empty!” The non-mainstream uncle laughed, “Red Ogre! Direct attack!”
The field was completely empty, both in the front and in the back, but Yuei Vu didn’t panic at all. He looked up at the rapidly approaching giant shadow and the rapidly falling mace and calmly took a card…
“I discarded ‘Kuriboh’ from my hand to activate its monster effect.” Yuei Vu said lightly, “Reduce the Battle Damage inflicted to your Life Points by 1 of your opponent’s monsters to 0.”
Players: “!?”
He just said…discarded what!?
