Chapter 43 The News Disappeared! ?

[Wow, congratulations on your difficult victory over a strong enemy. The settlement is being processed for you...]

[The rewards for this duel are over, you have obtained DP: 1000 points]

[You have received a card drop, please check it]

Not paying attention to the system's strange aura, Hayato casually opened the system warehouse and took out a newly dropped card. It was a permanent trap card.

However, the system drop that Hayato received was not the Daitokuji version of [Big Cosmos] that was only effective for him, but the OCG version that was effective for both parties. The strength increased by 10% or even 90%. At least if it had been previously If Tokudera had used this version, Hayato wouldn't have been able to win so easily.

"I'll accept your card." Looking at [Big Universe], although this card is very strong, because of its poor compatibility with Hayato's deck, Hayato did not add it to the deck in the end. In my own deck, I just put it back in the system warehouse. When Hayato gets interested one day, he can take it out to do some fun.

However, that possibility is not very high. After all, the tactics that Hayato uses most and is best at are liberation and tomb stacking tactics, but [Big Cosmos] is used to counter those tactics. Hayato is not the father-maker on the set of Masked Oshi, so why should he use tactics that make him uncomfortable when he has nothing to do.

After Hayato put away the card, Daitokuji, who had just been directly attacked by [Ra's Winged Dragon], finally recovered, got up from the ground, and said to Hayato: "It is indeed the legendary 'God's Card' '? Even if Mr. Hayato stopped fighting, I feel that my lifespan will be shortened by at least five or six years."

"In that case, wouldn't it be nice to have another body?"

"Don't talk about 'refining the human body' so easily, Mr. Hayato, I haven't even completed the 'Philosopher's Stone' yet, but I have no intention of distracting myself from doing two things, ahem..." Daitokuji Temple He coughed twice, stood up and walked towards Hayato's direction.

Hayato looked at Daitokuji who came to the edge of the clearing at the height difference. He also leaned over and gave him a hand, pulling Daitokuji back to the ground.

It was clear that a battle involving ideas and consciousness was still going on just now, but now after the duel, there is no sign that Hayato and Daitokuji were enemies just now. And that's part of the charm of Duel Monsters.

"If it were anyone else, Mr. Kagemaru could still ask me whether I fought with all my strength, but if the opponent was you, Mr. Hayato, my failure would be excusable. Even Mr. Kagemaru couldn't force me. I must defeat you." Not at all depressed because of losing the duel, Daitokuji spread his hands and said casually, "I have tried my best and given my all."

"Don't worry, if that Kagemaru guy gives you trouble, you might come to me. I haven't settled the accounts with him yet, but he dares to cause trouble in my territory." Hayato patted Daitokuji's shoulder and put his hand on The metal box he was carrying was brought up to his eyes, "But then again, what exactly does that guy Kagemaru want you to do?"

Looking at the suitcase in Hayato's hand, Daitokuji, who had a smile on his face, also became serious and restrained the smile on his face: "That is, I used to travel around the world in order to find the direction of the 'Philosopher's Stone'. During my travels, I accidentally found a card made of a taboo stone slab in Egypt, which contains three terrifying demon-like monsters. Kagemaru's purpose is to let me seal the card in the alchemy circle here. The power of the island to awaken the devil in the card.”

"However, even I was hesitant about whether sealing the card on the island would have any impact on the students on the island, so I brought the card here to think quietly, but I waited until you arrived, Mr. Hayato." After a pause, Daitokuji smiled again, "But now, after being defeated by Mr. Hayato, I no longer have the need to think about such troublesome issues."

"The Demon's Card? It's interesting." Listening to Daitokuji's description, Hayato's curiosity was aroused, and he looked at the password of the suitcase, "Teacher Daitokuji, what is the password of this box?" I'm visiting. Could it be 114514?"

"I don't know what it means, but the password on it is obviously seven digits." Daitokuji reached out and took the suitcase from Hayato, and moved the password that he had messed up before to return to the correct position. "This box was sealed by me. Only I know the password. Even Mr. Kagemaru has to find me to open it. The password is my birthday, August 10, 1919, which is 1919810."

Because he knew that Daitokuji was already using a second body and was not as young as he looked, Hayato was not surprised at Daitokuji's age, but he suddenly paused after watching Daitokuji adjust the password to open the box. He paused and said somewhat strangely: "What's wrong, Teacher Dadeji?"

"Disappeared?!"

In a tone of surprise that a person from the future would have when seeing accelerated synchronization, Daitokuji opened the suitcase, pointed at the inside of the suitcase in surprise, even horror, and said: "The three cards I put inside have all disappeared. Gone! Those three dangerous 'Three Phantom Demon' cards are gone!"

"Something is going wrong! Could it be that someone cracked my password and stole the card? In that case, what terrible things would he do with those three dangerous cards?"

Hayato rubbed his chin: "Well, maybe the person who stole your card gave the card to a bunch of bastards, and then asked those bastards to challenge someone and deliver the card to your door by courier?"

"How is that possible? Mr. Hayato, are you kidding me?" Daitokuji said anxiously, "Too bad, just waking up those three cards requires a lot of life force. It's okay if they are separated, but Once they gather together, I'm afraid it will bring danger to the whole world, and if they are not careful, they may even absorb the lives of everyone in the world."

Daitokuji, who was pacing around, turned around, looked at Hayato and said,

"I don't know who stole those three cards, but I have to find them and seal them before they are awakened—"

Hayato reached into the card box on his waist, took out three cards, and said to the stunned Daitokuji: "Rather than guessing, I think it would be faster to ask the three of them directly, right? "

"Those are the dangerous 'Three Illusion Demons'. Where can we communicate so easily?" Daitokuji said subconsciously. After reacting, he pointed at the "Three Illusion Demons" in Hayato's hand and said, "No, compared to that, why are the 'Three Illusion Demons' 'The card will be in your hand, Mr. Hayato!"

"Does it mean that you have the ability to take out the card without opening the combination lock of the suitcase?"

"How is that possible? Stop talking about the supernatural. We are teachers at Duel Academy and we have to talk about science." Hayato shook the "Three Phantom Demons" card in his hand, "And haven't I already told you their origins? Well, the person who stole these three cards gave them to a bunch of bastards, and then asked those bastards to challenge others, and ended up having these three cards delivered to their doorstep by courier."

Daitokuji looked at the card in Hayato's hand, and realized that it was indeed the "Three Phantom Demons". He had made the three cards based on the stone slabs he found, and there was no way he could admit his mistake: "Mr. Hayato, are you not joking? "

There was no need for Hayato to lie to Daitokuji, so of course he was telling the truth. The three "Three Phantom Demons" cards in his hand were not the ones that were handed over to Gurus' miscellaneous fish to challenge Hayato and Yugi after the deal between Yami Tapiryo and Malik, and ended up in Hayato's hands through various means. , and even the last two pictures came to Hayato's hands because of Yami Tabara's initiative.

It turns out that Hayato had doubts about where did Anzai Ryo get the ability to obtain the "Three Phantom Demons" card. Now that he thinks about it, he probably stole it from Daitokuji Temple. If it was someone else, he would have stolen it from Daitokuji Temple. It might be difficult for an alchemist like Tera to steal the "Three Phantom Demons" card from his hands, but if it is An Tapiliang, it seems reasonable.

In addition, after hearing Daitokuji mention that the card he made out of stone slabs was the "Three Phantom Demons", Hayato also wanted to understand why during the "Pyramid of Light" incident, Anubis' Babar actually Knowing how to manipulate the power of the "Three Phantom Demons" into the [Gate of Phantom Demons], it would be understandable if the "Three Phantom Demons" were once a legacy of ancient Egypt.

In fact, the "Three Phantom Demons" were born in the era when Anubis was alive. Although Anubis was very arrogant in wanting to replace Atum and Kaiba as the Pharaoh, in fact, he was just a pharaoh who was betrayed by Archana during his lifetime. The identity of the underappreciated apprentice who was mummified by Emperor and sealed in the [Pyramid of Light], maybe the "Three Illusion Demons" can be related to Emperor Akna.

"Let me confirm first. Teacher Daitokuji, you said that you found the stone tablet of 'Three Phantom Demons' in Egypt. Can you tell me where exactly it was found?"

Hearing Hayato's words, Daitokuji scratched his cheek in embarrassment: "Well, it's a bit embarrassing to say that. In fact, I did something similar to a tomb robber at that time. At that time, I was in a place that had just been discovered by an archaeological team. But the three stone slabs found in the tomb before official excavation work had begun, I used a little trick to drive the archaeological team away and then stole the stone slabs."

"As for that tomb, it's really strange to say that I found a lot of evidence in it that can prove that the person buried was probably a member of the royal family during his lifetime, but the scale of that tomb is limited to that of ordinary ancient Egyptian priests. The level, even the level of being the least popular and having made some serious mistakes, is very weird.”

"But I'm not an archaeologist after all, so I don't pay much attention to the specific identity of the person buried in the tomb. After discovering that the priest seemed to have been an alchemist during his lifetime, I focused mainly on this part of the tomb -"

"Okay, I know that much. That's enough." Hayato waved his hand to indicate to Daitokuji that he didn't need to go into detail about his archeology of ancient Egyptian alchemy. He could basically conclude from what Daitokuji had already said. The stone slab of "Three Phantom Demons" was actually excavated from the tomb of Emperor Akana by Dade Temple.

After all, he is the patron saint of the ancient Egyptian Pharaoh, he is a member of the royal family who has been hidden, he has made big mistakes, and he also has some alchemy skills. Who else could this be if he wasn't Akana?

It also cannot explain how that guy Anubis can control the "Three Phantom Demons". After all, this is the stone slab made by his teacher Aknadi. Even if it is transferred from the stone slab to the card, it will not affect his ability to control the "Three Phantom Demons". Transformed into [Gate of Phantom Demons].

After asking about the "Three Phantom Demons" in his hands, it turned out that it was as expected by Hayato. It was indeed the "Three Phantom Demons" that Anzai Liang had stolen from the place where Daitokuji had hidden his suitcase when he was not at home. card, and also left the box where it was without taking it away, so that when Kagemaru sent someone to bring Daitokuji's box to Duel Academy, he couldn't open the box to confirm it because he didn't know the password, and he didn't know at that time The box was already empty.

As for the place where Dade Temple hides things, how could An Tapirang know? Don’t forget that in Duel City, even though Anbapi Liang lost the [Millennium Wheel of Wisdom], he still poached the [Millennium Eye] from Bekas. Kagemaru even knew where Daitokuji Temple had the [Millennium Eye]. Can you still know about the darkness in your eyes?

In addition, Hayato also confirmed with the "Three Phantom Demons" their so-called setting of "absorbing the life force of the world after awakening". After hearing Hayato ask about this, [Phantom Demon Emperor-Rabiel 】They quickly said that they were just sucking it for fun, and there was no setting that they had to absorb the life force of the world to wake up. They were absolutely not in danger.

Seeing Hayato communicating cordially with the "Three Phantom Demons" like a big brother, Daitokuji felt a little confused and confused. As a card maker, how can I not be clear about this? Just by transferring the "Three Phantom Demons" from the slate into cards, the evil energy they exuded almost killed me. How could these three evil Phantom Demon cards be so honest in Hayato's hands? Any questions?

"Mr. Hayato, how do you know the 'Three Phantom Demons'?"

"You want to ask why the 'Three Phantom Demons' listen to me so much, right?" After Hayato finished asking, he looked at Daitokuji who spoke out and said confidently, "Of course it's because of my excellent personality and radiant personality. His character and dazzling golden spirit moved and convinced the 'Three Phantom Demons'."

Excellent charisma refers to the lightning summoning bullet of [Sky Dragon of Osiris]; glorious character refers to the divine fist crushing blow of [Obelisk's Giant Divine Weapon]; dazzling golden spirit refers to [Ra's Winged Divine Dragon] of the Divine Flame Cannon.

Originally, Zhang Huaimin, who had not yet absorbed enough life force, was forcibly awakened by An Tapirang, just like Zhang Huaimin, who had a younger brother who was the prime minister, Su Shi. How dare you not be moved after receiving the cordial greetings from "God"? Anyone who is not moved may be "conquered" by physics in the next second.

‘If you say it seriously, I will believe it seriously. ’

Even Daitokuji didn't quite believe what Hayato said. He looked at the "Three Phantom Demons" in Hayato's hands and said, "Since it's in your hands, Mr. Hayato, then I can rest assured and don't have to worry about being done by a thief." Something dangerous."

"Hey, don't think that this is the end of the matter, Mr. Daitokuji. This matter is not over yet." Looking at the "Three Phantom Demons" in his hand, Hayabusa thought of a plan, "Our Chairman Kagemaru is from Duel Academy. The man who contributed a lot to the founding of the company has also been very kind to you, and he still has shares in Duel Academy, so it’s nothing. Come on, let’s sum it up and think of a way to help him.”

Kage Wan, who was far away in his medical company and lying in the life-support cabin, suddenly felt that he was being targeted by something dangerous.
