At eight o'clock in the morning, Linton and Asuna arrived at the square in the center of Tongshiye. When they signed up, the store manager had told them to gather here this morning. When they came, there were already many people in the square.
Duelists, of course, are more people who come to watch the game. The two are still very distinguishable, and the duel plate in your hand is the difference.
And Linton also felt the enthusiasm for dueling in this world. Everyone with a dueling plate was treated like a star, and people around him kept coming up and wanted to take photos with them, strike up conversations, and so on. Of course, because there were Ya
Sina was here, but there were no girls who came directly to ask for Linton.
Of course, Asuna's duel disk has been modified. According to her, she can now draw whatever cards she wants. Although Linton said that this is not a duel at all, because there is no time to change it back, the two
Or come directly to participate in the competition.
If Asuna had a set of Dark Archmage cards at this time, she would be able to guarantee a 100% winning rate, because she would definitely have five Dark Archmage cards to start with. However, it is a pity that she does not. What should I say better?
There are no cards in the game, and you can draw whatever you want, but the winning rate is still not 100%. Asuna said that she can steal other people's cards to support the battle and improve her own deck.
"A cheater like you is really shameless." Linton said, "Yu-Gi-Oh! is going to decide the outcome in an upright and fair manner, so that you can see what a real duelist is!"
"So your side can win according to normal rules?" Asuna asked.
"Of course! I rely on my own strength as a duelist. I believe in my deck, and the deck will definitely respond to you." Linton said loudly.
"But that's not what you said yesterday," Asuna said.
"No Way Sai, do you understand that I wasn't a duelist before I got the deck? Now I am." Linton said, "Sooner or later, people like you will be punished by others, and they don't need to change the duel plate at all.
It’s a direct magic draw, and there’s no need for you to cheat like this, okay? So it seems that I still have to rely on me to lead you this time.”
"I see, what you said makes sense, so let me watch your duel first." Asuna said.
Just as he was talking, eight o'clock arrived, and the sunlight was suddenly blocked by something huge. Linton raised his head, and saw a huge airship passing over the square, and a seahorse appeared on the screen on the airship.
The avatar of Seto Kaiba, the boss of the company.
"Dear duelists, welcome to Duel City..." Seto Kaiba's voice sounded, not only from the airship, but also from the public loudspeaker in the square, so that everyone could hear it, "Now let's explain the rules..."
Seto Kaiba quickly explained the rules of the Duel City competition. This is a game with card gambling rules. Each duelist finds someone to duel with, and the things he bets are not only his own rare cards, but also his own.
There is something like a puzzle piece that I received when I signed up. This puzzle is the key to the top eight. Each duelist must snatch the other people's puzzle pieces. After collecting six pieces, they arrive at a place designated above.
To be considered as entering the top eight. The competition time is 48 hours. During this period, enough puzzle pieces must be collected. Of course, if there are more than eight people who have collected the puzzle pieces, it will depend on who reaches the meeting point of the top eight first. So although there is
48 hours, but if you are late, you may not make it to the top eight, the sooner the better.
As for the rules of the duel, there is actually nothing special. Although Seto Kaiba also briefly introduced it, they are similar to the rules Linton knew before, 4000 LP, and there are sacrifice rules. The only thing that is a bit special is that the fusion monster seems to be...
You cannot attack during the turn. This is a bit different from the rules Linton understands. Maybe it was changed later? After all, there are not many fused monsters in this era, but Linton definitely did not have this rule in the GX era, otherwise how would he play in the tenth generation.
Anyway, Linton doesn't have any fusion monsters. To be honest, he just listened to the rules casually. Linton said that these are not important at all, and he is really invincible.
While listening to the rules, Linton was still looking around. Yes, of course he was looking for the protagonist and his group. Although this is a world where someone else takes over, Linton estimated that the protagonist group will still come to participate in the competition, and they can't be on the same page.
When the investigators came here, without saying a word, they killed Muto Yugi and took away the Millennium Bricks. What good would this do to the investigation? He also gave himself a second personality. No one would be so bored.
However, after searching around, Linton didn't see the protagonist group. Those with hairstyles that are good at playing cards should be easy to find, but there were too many people at the scene, most of them were spectators, so he really didn't see it.
It's normal. In short, I haven't encountered it now, and I will definitely encounter it in the quarterfinals later. Linton doesn't believe that Muto Yugi can't enter the quarterfinals.
"Okay, now I announce that the Duel City competition has officially begun, duelists! Look for the duelists hidden in this city!" At this moment, Seto Kaiba here waved his hand and announced that the competition has officially begun. Below
The crowd burst into cheers. Yes, the speech just now was quite good. It immediately aroused everyone's enthusiasm for dueling. Many people immediately started to duel with the people next to them after listening.
"Here we go." Asuna said calmly, "It's quite troublesome to collect 6 puzzle pieces in 2 days. Do you want to start now?"
"Of course, as a duelist, I can't help but look forward to my first battle." Linton waved and said. It was indeed Linton's first battle. Before this, he had never played cards with anyone, not even with Asuna.
I haven’t practiced my hands yet. I set up the cards yesterday and tried them for the first time today.
"Then let me be your opponent!" Suddenly a female voice sounded from behind Linton. Linton did not expect that someone would come up to challenge him so quickly. Indeed, there were many people nearby who started fighting on the spot.
Linton turned his head excitedly, and then... didn't see anyone?
"Which way are you looking at? I'm here!" Suddenly a hand from below waved to Linton. Linton lowered his head and what appeared in front of him was... a little girl. This girl looked like she was about ten years old.
Right, elementary school student?
"My name is Emma, and I am a duelist." The little girl here said, "Come to duel!"
"Uh... no, this is the primary school student who I fought against for the first time?" Linton held up his forehead.
"You have been very rude from the beginning. I am a duelist." Emma here raised the duel disk in her hand, "Anyway, when our eyes meet, the duel begins..."
"Are you tampering with me?" Linton couldn't help but said.
"Anyway, hurry up and fight me." Emma said.
"No, please don't look for me, okay? I really don't want my first fight to be with a primary school student," Linton said.
"No, it's you!" Emma insisted, "I'm a duelist. Once I make a decision, I won't change it!"
"Then... well, if you don't challenge me for a duel, I'll treat you to ice cream." Linton pointed to the ice cream stand next to him and said.
"Of course not... Then I want to eat strawberry flavor, 2 balls." Emma thought for a while and said.
"..." Linton looked at Emma speechlessly, and then said to Asuna next to him, "Take her to eat ice cream and feed her until she has diarrhea."
"..." Asuna looked at Linton without saying anything, and silently left with Emma.
"Jie Jie Jie, I didn't expect that someone would use such conditions to escape a duel?" As soon as the two left, another voice sounded from the crowd next to them. Linton turned around and looked, and found a mushroom-headed man wearing glasses coming out of the duel.
Walked out of the crowd.
"This is... an insect feather moth?" Before he could introduce it, someone next to him had already called out his name.
"Insect Feather Moth, isn't that the previous champion of the national competition?"
"Is he such a big guy?"
"But I heard that he was eliminated in the preliminaries of the previous Duel Kingdom competition."
Hearing the comments from passers-by, Insect Feather Moth was a little unhappy. Yes, he came to the Duel City competition this time to seek revenge on Yugi and others. Of course, he also wanted to prove himself again that he is the champion. But he hasn't watched it yet.
When they arrived at the game, they happened to see the scene between Linton and Emma when they passed by.
In his eyes, Linton was just a card giver. He didn't even dare to accept the challenge from a primary school student. How timid he was. Obviously, he had never seen Linton. It was definitely not a famous duel.
Well, what else can I say? He definitely wants this share.
"Hey, you said you don't want to duel with elementary school students, what about me, do you dare to accept my duel?" Insect Feather Moth went up and said arrogantly, "If you don't dare to accept anyone, then you might as well quit the competition early..."
Insect Feather Moth said this because he wanted to put pressure on Linton. After all, there were so many people watching around him, but before he could finish his words, Linton said directly: "I took it."
"Huh?" The level of pleasure made Insect Feather Moth a little unexpected. However, although it was a bit strange, since he really didn't know Linton, he didn't think much about it. "In that case, the duel will begin."
Insect Feather Moth said, and his duel disk was opened directly. Insect Feather Moth took out his deck and stuffed it directly into the duel disk.
Linton nodded. In his first battle, although the opponent was a mushroom head who was often beaten in Yu-Gi-Oh and seemed to have never won, he was also a champion after all, so he still had some cards. So he waved his hand and started a duel.
When the disk was opened, Linton also took out the card deck and stuffed it into it.
"DUEL!" The two shouted at the same time, and the game officially began, because both of them only had one puzzle piece, and it didn't matter the amount of the bet. If they lost, they would be eliminated.
"I took the first attack!" Linton shouted directly, but the insect feather moth opposite him was stunned.
"Isn't it me who attacks first?" Insect Feather Moth pointed at the light on the duel plate, which was on his side.
"Huh? Isn't it the one who shouts first and attacks first?" Linton said in surprise.
"A beginner?" Insect Feather Moth frowned, "Attack first, draw cards!"
