Squatting on the ground, Judai looked at the open space in front of him curiously, and poked and prodded with a randomly picked branch.
"It's so magical. I obviously poked a hole in the ground." Judai said in surprise as he pulled up the branch and watched the hole he left on the ground heal quickly. "It disappeared in the blink of an eye."
"And the triggering mechanism seems to be 'continuous strokes'. If you don't pull out the branch, you can keep drawing and it won't repair itself." Using the soil on the ground as a drawing board, Maeda Hayato drew a large picture in one stroke, and it seemed that
It looked like [Death Koala], "Ah, it's broken."
He accidentally broke the branch with too much force, and the pictures Maeda left on the ground quickly disappeared like the holes Judai poked, leaving only a flat and empty ground.
"Hmph, so didn't I tell you before, Maeda, to find a better branch?" He proudly raised the branch in his hand that was long, straight, suitable in thickness, and even had a pair of symmetrical branches as a hand guard.
"Twig Sword", Judai said proudly, "Just like my 'Invincible Ultimate Hero Immortal Grade Spiral Flash Rondo Roaring Heaven and Earth Unparalleled Cracking Lightning Pill'!"
"The name is too long, Judai. Let's just call it 'Dengguangwan' for short."
"Then wouldn't it be too wasteful for me to deliberately choose such a long name? Even if it is an abbreviation, it should at least be called 'The Unparalleled Sword of Heaven, World, and Heaven', right?"
Hearing Judai and Maeda squatting on the ground, actually seriously discussing the naming of the "branch sword" and even the attribute settings such as "Zhanwei" and "Knowing Heart", Sho Marufuji covered his face helplessly: "We
Why are you wasting so long here..."
"Brother, if we don't leave, I'm afraid Banzhangmu and Asuka-san will have to reach the finish line."
Hearing Marufuji Xiang's urging, Judai said confidently: "It doesn't matter, Xiang. Look, there is no time limit on this mission panel, which means that it only takes a few seconds to reach the final venue.
Things that can be completed in a few minutes are either long-term tasks. This is my experience after playing so many RPG games."
Judai has seen many tasks with this description in the games he has played in the past. Short ones such as "Equip weapons" can be completed in the blink of an eye, and long ones such as "Looking for Princess Seoda" can be delayed until the end of the game.
Even if I lost interest and AFK (Away-From-Keybord, refers to no longer playing the game for a long time or permanently), it is not nothing.
If the location of that huge tree is near where Judai and the others entered the virtual world, then the mission they received [to reach the end of the world] is the kind of task that can be completed in one go. Judai also
It won't take too long to do it, but that tree is so far away that Wan Zhangmu and the others need to ride on the summoned card monsters as mounts to reach it?
This is probably a long-term task at first glance, so you can take your time.
Moreover, Judai used his astonishing wisdom to think that maybe the way Banzhangmu and the others rode on card monsters was wrong, because although the mission description only said "arrive" at the destination, there was no restriction on how to get there.
, even the mission prompt only said an inexplicable "Odin's horse". Those who didn't know it thought it was hinting that others should arrive as soon as possible on "horses", that is, mounts.
However, Judai's astonishing wisdom told him that the "step to" in the mission name [Step to the End of the World] was probably important information that could not be ignored. Maybe he could only step on the ground with his feet like them and then move toward the star.
Moving forward in the direction of the oversized tree is the correct way to complete the task.
"Even if you say so, brother..." Looking at Judai who was still poking at the ground with a branch and then looking at the disappearing hole, Marufuji Sho complained, "It's been a long time since we set off.
It takes an hour, but when we walked across the grassland into this forest, we only walked less than fifty minutes, and we have already wasted more than ten minutes in this place."
"Huh? Has it been that long? The sun obviously hasn't moved much in the sky." Judai glanced at the sky with some confusion. Because of the cover of clouds, he didn't feel the glare even if he looked directly at the sun, let alone here.
There was no need to worry about damage to his eyesight in the virtual world. The sun he saw seemed to still be hanging at the same height as when he set out.
"Although the sun in the sky is not moving, the time is displayed on the task panel provided to us by this virtual world, but it does not seem to be synchronized with the real time when we came in. Instead, it started at eight o'clock in the morning when we set off
It was about half past eight, and now it’s already half past nine.”
While talking to Judai, Maeda said somewhat strangely, "It was probably around three o'clock in the afternoon when we entered this world. We have been in this world for almost an hour and a half, but my stomach is actually a little bit...
Aren’t you hungry? You’re obviously used to having dinner at five o’clock.”
"Mr. Hayato told us before that we don't need to know too much about the Kaiba Group. It would be nice not to feel hungry or anything else, otherwise we would have to find a way to get something to eat," Judai said.
Then he picked up a piece of grass on the roadside and put it into his mouth, "For example, eating weeds or something? Isn't it possible that the earthy smell of grass has been restored in this world - bah bah bah!"
"Wow, it tastes exactly like grass in reality."
"Rather than that, I'm more curious about why you know the taste of grass, bro? Could it be that you're imitating those characters in anime who would put grass in their mouths and lie on the grass to look cool?" Sho Marufuji complained.
However, Judai just looked at the grass, said "Huh?", lowered his head in confusion and did not answer Marufuji Sho's words.
"Is there anything there, Judai?" Maeda asked curiously. He walked to Judai and lowered his head. Even Sho Marufuji, who wanted to rush on his way, was aroused by the two of them and came over.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Pulling away the grass, the three of them looked at the mysterious runes engraved on the ground and covered with grass, and exclaimed in unison: "This is..."
"Who writes English letters so ugly, some even write them backwards!"
Hearing that none of the ten generations of people knew what was written on the ground, a "person" finally couldn't sit still and corrected him: "No, you guys don't know 'rune characters', so don't talk nonsense."
Ah meow!”
"Hey, Judai, do you recognize these characters?" "I've never heard of them. What are 'rune characters'?" "Brother, do you recognize these characters?"
After the three people spoke at the same time, they were stunned. Among them, Judai who was looked at by Marufuji Sho and Maeda Hayato was the most confused.
"Isn't it you, eldest brother, who spoke just now?"
After hearing Marufuji Sho's words, Judai immediately denied it and said: "How is it possible? Who would have such a strange tongue habit as 'meow' when speaking?"
"Actually, it's not like nothing..." Maeda suddenly thought of a person and swallowed.
Judai and Marufujixiang also thought of a place with Maeda, and a squinting face appeared in their minds: "You mean, big--"
Before Marufuji Sho finished speaking, a figure held Judai's shoulders with both hands, suddenly stood up and appeared in front of the three of them, with a warm smile on his lips under a pair of squinting eyes: "Bingo! That's it!
Teacher, meow~"
And at the next moment, Judai, Maeda and Xiang all subconsciously waved their hands and punched each other, shouting with horror on their faces: "Ghost!"
Several people were about to run away, but Xiang shouted in a panic: "Brother, brother, it's time for a hero to appear!"
"Monsters and evil organizations are the opponents of heroes, right? Catching ghosts is the scope of the Onmyoji's business!"
"You two, wait for me! I'm very afraid of ghosts!"
After the three of them ran for almost a hundred meters, Maeda, who started the slowest and ran at the back, had time to look back in panic and found that no one was chasing them, so his pace slowed down a bit.
Although there is no physical limit in the virtual world, the panic just now made several people subconsciously forget about this. They felt a little tired mentally and took two deep breaths. Maeda stood there and looked behind him and found that there was no movement.
He stopped Judai and Xiang: "It seems that no one is chasing us?"
"Is what I just hallucinated? Maeda, you and your elder brother should have seen it, too. Teacher Daitokuji appeared again." Sho Marufuji heard Maeda calling him, and he slowly stopped.
Seeing that there was indeed no danger behind, he walked back slowly, asking Maeda and Judai as he walked.
"If it's an illusion, it's too real. I can feel that my fist did hit something just now." Judai clenched his fist. Although it was short-lived, he did feel like he was in contact with an entity.
"I thought I felt wrong, but it turned out that Judai, you and Xiangya saw it, and did they feel that they hit something?" Maeda also shook his hands, as if he was savoring the person who just hit him.
"The feeling when it exists, "In terms of feel, it feels exactly the same as hitting Teacher Daitokuji in the face with a punch. Could it be that that one is really big——"
"Shh——! Don't say the other person's name, Maeda! Maybe it will really attract the ghost!" Sho Marufuji nervously covered Maeda's mouth to prevent him from talking, "At this time,
Just use 'You-Know-Who' instead."
"Rather than that, I'm more curious about Maeda why you know the feeling of a punch hitting the 'mysterious man' in the face."
Hearing Judai's words, Maeda scratched his cheek in embarrassment: "During the Bon Festival last year, I went to the toilet in the middle of the night and found the great figure, the 'mysterious man', hiding in the corner with his face covered in blood and scaring me.
Just like before, I punched him in the face subconsciously."
"Then I discovered that the 'mysterious man' took advantage of us students to be asleep, filleted the fish caught by the principal, and made seafood hot pot for himself and the Pharaoh."
"Sounds like something a 'mysterious man' could do." Sho Marufuji said with shame when he remembered that he had also encountered Mr. Daitokuji secretly frying tempura and eating it alone in the middle of the night.
"But, shouldn't the 'mysterious man' have already..." Thinking of the duel he had not long ago with Mr. Daitokuji, who was the last member of the "Seven Stars", after that, Mr. Daitokuji, who lost the duel, said it in front of him
Asuka's face turned into "flying ashes", Judai said with some seriousness, "Is the one just now really the 'mysterious man'?"
"I don't know, but I think we should go back and take a look." Maeda plucked up the courage to suggest, "Not to mention that we should continue moving forward, this is a virtual world, and we don't have to worry about encountering any dangers."
"Speaking of which, there is absolutely no need for us to escape. Maybe the other party is just some kind of monster that can turn into a character in our imagination." Sho Marufuji also realized that he had nothing to be afraid of in the virtual world. Suddenly
He became brave and said, "Maybe I can easily deal with the other party without Big Brother taking action."
Reversing the order of the previous rush, this time it was Sho Marufuji who walked at the front of the three, taking the lead into the forest and walking towards the clearing they had discovered before. They didn't go far before they returned to where they were just now.
Escape from the neighborhood.
However, just as he was about to approach the open space, Marufuji Xiang suddenly froze and stopped moving forward. He turned his head in a panic and said, "I, I suddenly feel that this kind of performance opportunity should be given to you, big brother."
"It's not because I heard crying."
Judai and Maeda listened carefully and heard the faint sobbing hidden in the sound of wind and leaves. They reluctantly plucked up the courage to poke their heads out, only to see the suspected Great Master right where they were just now.
The "mysterious man" in the temple was squatting on the spot, his back turned to them, crying.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "This, I have seen this scene when I was playing games. We'd better not alert the Witch." Maeda Hayato glanced at Marufuji Sho, "That's it.
Leave it to your [robot], Xiang, use firepower to tell him that times have changed."
"No, no, what if the opponent is not afraid of physical damage. Maeda, your [Death Koala] can also be used."
"I thought [Death Koala] would just give me eucalyptus leaves to eat."
Neither Marufuji Sho nor Maeda Hayato dared to take action against the strange-looking "mysterious man", but Judai was not afraid of the rather supernatural atmosphere. Instead, he stood there with his eyes closed and thought about the past.
Every moment of getting along with Mr. Daitokuji came to mind. The last picture was Mr. Daitokuji's face with cracks like broken ceramics, smiling at himself: "Don't forget to talk to me."
During the duel, it feels like having your friends by your side. Judai, I want to walk on the bright road——'
"Of course I will never forget the feeling of walking with my friends, Daitokuji-sensei. But equally, I will not forget you either." Talking to himself, Judai said to Maeda and Xiang, "Leave it to me.
Let me solve the other party's problem. However, before that, I want to see Teacher Daitokuji again."
"That sounds too dangerous, right? Brother, why don't you think about it again?"
"Yes Judai, if it doesn't work out we can take a detour."
It was not just because he was worried that Judai's actions would alert the opponent before he attacked, putting Judai into crisis. As a few people who knew the final outcome of the "Seven Stars" incident, both Maeda and Sho knew that they had defeated the last "Seven Stars".
The person is Judai. To a certain extent, Judai can be said to be the person who sent Daitokuji to the last stage of his life.
Let Judai go kill "Dadeji" again, even if that "Dideji" is probably fake? That kind of thing would be too embarrassing for Judai!
But Judai had made up his mind to leave, and rejected both Maeda and Sho. Judai walked out from behind the tree where he was hiding, and while approaching "Datokuji Temple", he said hello to each other from afar.
"Teacher Daitokuji? Do you still remember me?"
"Remember? Of course I remember..." "Dadeji" who was squatting on the ground heard Judai's words and stood up, revealing his face stained with blood from unknown sources. He looked quite ferocious and faced Judai.
Daichi said, "How could I forget you, meow!"
"We haven't seen each other for so long. It's okay if we don't say hello. What's the point of each of you punching me? Meow!" Pointing to the "panda eyes" in the extremely symmetrical eye sockets on his face, Dadeji said excitedly, "
The key is to hit more than just the eyes. Who punched me in the nose just now? It caused nosebleeds all over my face, meow!"
Sho Marufuji looked at the blood stain on his hand that was accidentally stained just now, wiped it on the nearby tree as if nothing had happened, and whistled as if nothing had happened.
"Really? You are really energetic, Teacher Daitokuji. I really miss seeing you like this." Judai smiled and raised his hand, drew on the Duel Disk that appeared, and took out the card.
, "That's enough. Next, I will send you on your way again so that you can rest in peace."
"[E·hero Winged Man], use Winged Storm against 'Teacher Daitokuji'!"
Seeing Judai summoning [E·Hero] to attack him, Daitokuji panicked and said quickly: "Wait, wait a minute, Judai, why are you attacking me? Meow! Teacher, I am really a teacher."
Ah meow, you should be able to recognize my teacher, ah meow?"
"Could it be that you punched me in the nose just now, teacher, so you plan to silence me?"
