Chapter 74: Everyone, Get Out of the Way, Let’s Play Cards!

A few days passed quickly, and the Duel City, the largest Duel Monster event in history hosted by Kaiba Corporation, was finally about to begin.

Duelists equipped with the latest Duel Disks took to the streets of the city, and suddenly they were everywhere in Tongshiye. Densely packed duelists gathered from all directions to the designated locations where they received notifications, waiting for the organizers of the competition to make a statement.

At this moment, You Yu was also mixed in the crowd of duelists, looking at a special transparent card in his hand.

The black magician girl floated behind him, and her little head curiously poked over his shoulder: "Master, what is this?"

"This? This is a puzzle card." You Yu explained, "Each participating duelist will receive a puzzle card. I remember that the first eight people who collect six puzzle cards will qualify for the quarterfinals."

Generally speaking, puzzle cards are given as gifts when you pick up the Duel Disk given by Kaiba Corporation in the store, which is also considered as the qualification to participate in the Duel City Competition. Therefore, the duel disk is the system's own, and Youyu and other players theoretically don't have it.

However, they can receive the main quest of "Fighting Duel City". Everyone can receive it from the quest panel two days before the competition. The system will distribute the puzzle card as a special quest prop to all players who have received the quest.

The black magician girl nodded thoughtfully: "That is to say, if you beat others, you can grab other people's rare cards?"

"That's right. So not only winning, but also racing is important."

"It doesn't matter! Master, the top eight will definitely be easy!"

The elf girl's face was full of "My master is the best in the world".

As he spoke, Youyu had already walked to the square where duelists gathered.

Although most of them were passers-by, there were indeed many familiar faces here.

First of all, it was the absolute protagonist of the version, Yugi Muto. That colorful starfish head was easy to notice wherever he went. Then the hot girl next to him must be Sister Kongquewu - although she didn't face Youyu, we can always tell a contestant like Kongquewu by his appearance, after all, it's hard to make a mistake with that size.

Thinking of this, Youyu couldn't help but glance at the black magician girl floating beside him in ghost state.

......

...... Hum! After all, it's still not as good as my elf!

Black magician girl: "?"

What is the master looking at me for? Is there something on my face?

Ahem, focus, focus...

Then Youyu also noticed the eternal cannon fodder duo in DM, Longqi using the dinosaur deck and Yu Moth using the insect deck.

Although Yu Moth is just an ordinary person in the DM setting, he is an out-and-out bad guy. The five dark wizard parts in the game were thrown into the sea by this guy, making the only set of dark wizard parts in the world out of print.

Look, now Yu Moth is taunting Yugi again, saying things like "My insects are thirsty" and "The insect army is unstoppable".

However, Yu Moth obviously hasn't realized the seriousness of the problem, nor does he realize that the starfish head in front of him will become his eternal psychological shadow in the future...

(In the Olihagang chapter, Yu Moth was beaten to zero LP and his soul ascended to heaven, and Yugi attacked him with N consecutive attacks, which is a representative animation scene in the Yu-Gi-Oh circle)

And then of course, there are the sand sculpture players who are eager to try during the public beta.

Players are in groups of three or two, and each of them is full of expectations - this is also normal. After all, it is the first time to participate in the main storyline of DM, and it is also a duel city competition with clear gambling card rules. Every player can't help but fantasize about making it into the top eight and rushing into the finals, making a lot of money and rewriting history at the same time.

But they are probably overthinking.

In the first version of the public beta, players only have two weeks to mine and collect cards, and the strength of the decks they can form is limited.

It might be okay to bully ordinary passers-by, but if you encounter a player with an independent hairstyle, you will most likely fail.

In the early stage of the competition, players basically come to sightsee, and it is not realistic to expect to make it to the quarterfinals.

Then as expected, a large group of stupid players gathered near the game, obviously wanting to follow the protagonist to get benefits.

Although most players have discovered after two weeks that following the original protagonist seems to be useless, there are always some people who don't give up.

What if?

What if Wang Yang or AIBO takes me back to be a follower because I am beautiful?

You Yu knows the players' psychology best, but he just finds this mentality funny.

Haha, I am so handsome and I was not favored. I am afraid you are all thinking about P-cha.

As time approaches, the opening speech of the competition is finally about to begin.

"Hahahahaha!!!"

A series of three-part laughter of the opening thunder sounded from the sky, and through the huge speakers, it seemed to hover over the entire city.

A huge shadow was like a black cloud, and an airship with the KC logo slowly approached, covering the sky and the sun.

A huge electronic screen was hung under the airship, and the image of the president Kaiba Seto was clearly displayed on the screen.

He never missed any opportunity to show off, and if he had to show off, he would show off the most. It was indeed a very president-like style.

Don't say, when Kaiba stood in front of the big screen, the heroic three-stage laughter sounded, and he really had the style of a domineering president. You may forget that this guy is actually only sixteen years old so far, and he is still a classmate with Muto Yugi...

...By the way, president, have you ever gone back to school?

A sixteen-year-old president, who even relied on his own ability to work hard, is really hard not to admire this experience. After all, starting from an orphanage with a younger brother, not everyone can have the ability to become the president of a multinational group.

But rather than being a business genius, it's better to be a genius...

You Yu remembered that the animation chapter detailed the first pot of gold Kaiba made when he was a child. It was his birthday, and his adoptive father Kaiba Gosaburo gave him 2% of the company's shares and asked him to find a way to increase his assets by 100 times within a year.

Ordinary people might be at a loss with such a perverted request, but Kaiba, who was only in his teens at the time, did not. He first sent someone to acquire a long-established pottery company with the assets at hand, and then sold the company's shares to the original owner of the pottery company at a price five times higher...

What? You don't buy it?

Then I'm sorry, your entire company will be fired!

When You Yu saw this, his expression was like this: Σ(°△°|||)︴

President, you are... aren't you just robbing openly?

So money can be made this way?

Is there no rules and no laws in this world?

Where is the judge? Where is the judge?

Oh, by the way, the judge may not be able to play cards with President Kaiba.

That's all right...

In this way, Kaiba Seto not only met his adoptive father's expectations, but also went far beyond that. Later, he simply kicked Gozaburo out and took over the giant Kaiba Group.

It's no exaggeration to say that he is a business genius.

At this moment, Kaiba has briefly explained the rules of this competition to everyone in mid-air.

In short, the entire Tojino City is a duel stage, and duelists can duel with each other at any time and anywhere in the city.

The winner can not only accept the loser's puzzle card, but also ask for a rare card from the opponent's deck as a trophy.

The promotion match is limited to today. During the entire period, all other daily activities in Tojino City will be stopped, schools will be closed, and companies will be shut down, all of which will make way for the Kaiba Group's card game competition!

Those who don't know the truth may even mistakenly think that Kaiba Seto is the mayor of Tojino City...

However, Youyu knows that this is nothing now.

Wait a few years, when the timeline of the movie "Dark Side of Dimension" develops, Kaiba will directly add a new rule - people who don't register their decks will not be allowed to move in.

Do you believe that if you don't play cards, you won't be allowed to live in...

By then, Youyu will find that the president of Kaiba may not really be Mayor Domino, he may be a head of state who is hiding very deeply...
