After arriving at the castle, just as Princess Mary promised, everyone received a very warm reception. It happened that Hayato and the others had been in this game for so long, so they sat down and enjoyed a delicious meal.
"You can actually taste it. This smells so good, this is delicious, and this doesn't make you cough, cough, cough!" Jonouchi felt very novel about "experiencing eating in a video game" because he didn't know how to
I was so full that I ate everything.
No, the price of devouring it was that he got choked. The degree of restoration is really high.
"Please, you are weak." Hayato put a cup of coffee in front of him and tasted the unique flavor of the garlic in the steak. "No one is trying to compete with you."
He took a sip of water from the glass of water handed to him by Peacock Dance, and finally managed to swallow the food in his mouth. Jonouchi gasped and said, "Huh, I'm saved. I thought I would be choked to death in a video game."
Keppei and Yugi gained more information from Princess Mary. Her identity is the princess of the kingdom where they are currently located - the Kingdom of Korando, but she was also selected to be sacrificed to the evil dragon.
——One of the sacrifices of the "Five Divine Dragons". Every year, the Kingdom of Korando and the neighboring Kingdom of Gautas must offer a sacrifice to the dragon, otherwise they will suffer the disaster of annihilation.
The same information that Hayato told the two of them, Princess Mary also heard that a sacrifice had been brought to the [Five Divine Dragons]. If they hadn't rescued her from Yugi, Princess Mary would have been killed by now.
Take it to the place where the dragon sleeps—the [City of Darkness] hanging high in the sky.
There is no need to guess the identity of the sacrifice that was taken away. It must be the Kaiba who was stripped of his deck and has no fighting power in this world.
Worried about his brother's safety, Keppei didn't even bother to eat. He anxiously asked the princess how he could reach the castle in the sky, but was told that although someone escaped from there in a giant bird-like aircraft thousands of years ago,
Time has passed, and no one knows where the aircraft was hidden or whether it can still be used.
As for using the power of duel monsters to fly directly to the castle in the sky, not to mention that the summoning of monsters has combat restrictions. There is a barrier outside the [City of Darkness], and duel monsters cannot penetrate that barrier to enter.
Inside the castle.
"How could it be..." When Guiping heard such news, he had no appetite even though he was surrounded by tempting food.
Yugi comforted him and said: "Don't worry, Keipei, we will definitely help you rescue Kaiba. We have an agreement."
"As long as it's a game, there must be a way to clear the level, right? Even if the road ahead looks like a dead end, as long as you move forward with the consciousness that 'you must clear the level,' you can open up a new path." Hayato also said.
Keipei enlightened, "Didn't you enter this game with the same determination to rescue Kaiba? You must do what you say, Naruto."
"So I am Keppei!"
Although he lost his temper a little, Hayato's method worked quite well. Keppei successfully cheered up and looked firmly at the sky outside the window: "Well, I will save my brother and use all my methods.
!"
"Speaking of it, Yugi, I remember you once said that you have ever met a duelist who used [City of Darkness], right?" Hayato suddenly asked Yugi, "How did you defeat him?"
?"
"Ah, me? The [City of Darkness] at that time, because it had near-invincible defense, I spent several rounds unable to break through its barrier, but in the end, I used [Ejection Turtle]
I just shot it down." Yugi thought for a moment and said, "It's just that the current situation is not suitable for using [Ejection Turtle] to attack [City of Darkness], the seahorse is still there."
"That's right."
At this time, Princess Mary said again: "Actually, there is a legend circulating in our country - a warrior will come to the kingdom from the other side of the mountain, and he will kill the evil dragon and save the world."
"Don't tell me, princess, do you think we are the legendary warriors?" Jonouchi pointed at himself and said shyly, "Oh my, we are not that powerful."
"I believe that your benefactors have that kind of strength." Princess Mary paused, looked at the [City of Darkness] floating on the horizon, and said with a sad tone, "Although I have been rescued from the temple by you now
Come out, but the evil dragon’s men will not let me go easily, and they will definitely attack the kingdom."
Yugi smiled and said: "Don't worry, princess, we will protect you."
"Yi Yu..." Princess Mary looked at Yu Yu with a moved face, "Well, thank you. Oh, by the way, I see that you don't have any powerful equipment on you, so just bring some from our kingdom.
”
"Oh oh oh, it feels more and more like an adventure story." Jonouchi looked very excited and tugged on his clothes. His outfit was still the same as the one in the arena, although it looked better than the school uniform worn by Yu Yu.
, but it is also shabby and has no temperament. Now when I heard that there are new fashions, I am naturally a little happy, "Yoshi, you must give me the most heroic equipment!"
Ten minutes later.
Yugi put on a light armor and walked out of the locker room. He adjusted the red cloak behind him and hung a short sword on his waist that was more decorative than practical. While adjusting the position of the gauntlet on his forearm, he saw
Hayato was waiting outside the locker room.
The clothes Hayato was assigned were a set of pure white mage robes, which were somewhat similar in style to the ones in [Black Magician], except that they did not come with a hat and a staff.
Since the game, Peacock Dance has also come out. Her warrior equipment is the standard female warrior equipment - a small buckler on her left arm, tight leather armor, military boots and battle skirt, and a very long double blade.
The sword is stored in the sheath at the waist.
"It's not bad. These clothes are all decent." Looking at Hayato and Yugi's new look, Peacock Wu felt that his current outfit looked more like a professional adventurer than before, and then turned to look at
The locker room at the back, "Jounouchi is still in there?"
From the gap in the curtain, Jonouchi's head was exposed. His head was covered with black lines, and he reluctantly walked out: "Why am I the only one dressed like this?!"
An khaki animal skin dress, Roman straw sandals, a Viking horn helmet, and a mace. This set of equipment in the castle condenses the essence of the "barbarians" of several eras. Hayato would like to call it "
"Grand Barbarian".
"Isn't this quite suitable for you, Jonouchi." Hayato teased, "Nanny said that this outfit is a set of equipment for the bravest warrior in their Kingdom of Korando. You must wear it with gratitude~"
Jonouchi couldn't help but think of what he had experienced since entering the game. Every time he wanted to be a brave or a hero, he was unlucky. It was like that last time in the arena, and it was like this when changing clothes this time: "I don't want to be a brave in the future.
Got it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a bell ringing outside, accompanied by an alarm from the patrolling sentry: "Oh no, the monster is attacking the city!"
