Chapter 267 Duel Academy Is My Backyard
"Not to mention AI-controlled super robots and special drugs that strengthen the human body. Recently, he has just been playing cards with Hayato-san and tinkering with the duel to connect the world. He has never touched anything else."
Keppei said with great certainty, "That's why, brother, he hasn't studied other weird things at all in recent times. As for Hayato-san, do you think his invention can cause any trouble?"
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible."
Hayato also knew where Keipei's confidence came from. After all, all of Kaiba's inventions that he had not promoted on the market had been put into the "museum" in the headquarters building for collection. That absolutely safe place was being blocked. After Ra invaded once with the power of "Prana", even the shortcomings in that area had already been made up for.
Under such circumstances, it is impossible for anyone to use Kaiba's past inventions to accomplish anything.
In fact, Hayato just asked casually. After all, what he learned from Darkness was the "latest invention" rather than the "past invention". With Darkness's IQ, Hayato didn't think he could think of anything in this regard. Lying to waste one's energy and disgust oneself, then assume that Darkness did not lie——
Couldn't the "latest invention" that he said "invite enemies and destroy humanity" have to be the duel link and the game cabin "cocoon" that Kaiba has been studying recently?
After all, just as Kaiba has confidence in Hayato's strength, Hayato also has enough confidence in Kaiba's scientific research capabilities. There may be scientists who can surpass Kaiba in theory, but as far as practical actions are concerned, turning theory into actual works In terms of ability, Kaiba is absolutely number one in the world.
Not to mention, except for Chigu Fried of the Schreider Group who developed their own duel disk, even today, several years later, the vast majority of technology companies have still not been able to crack the principle of the Haima Group's duel disk. , and Chigufrid himself is actually similar. He also cannot understand the black technology of Haima and can only use specious technology to realize the virtual projection system from another angle.
From this, it can be concluded that the "latest invention of mankind" can only be limited to Kaiba's recent invention, and the only things Kaiba has touched recently are the virtual world "Duel-Links" and the fully submersible game cabin "Cocoon" That’s it.
But the problem is, even Hayato can't figure out how those two inventions, which are almost bound together, can lead to enemies that can destroy mankind. It's not like some computer virus suddenly mutated into a kind of energy. Isn't it a game called "Duel Monster Chronicles" that infects the human body with the "Hengogen Body" virus that affects reality, and then gives the video game its own consciousness, so that anyone who wants to lose to humans will die?
Then I have to quickly find a game that can kill me with one foot to cheat myself?
Just when Hayato was thinking wildly about whether it would be better to use the Fantasy Musou or the Immortal Player, Keppei stretched out his hand and shook it in front of him, and said dissatisfiedly: "Really, Hayato-san, are you listening to me?"
"Well, I also think pasta No. 5 should be mixed with chocolate sauce."
"Really? I also think that chocolate sauce is simply - no, that's not what I just said!" Keppei complained, looking very unhappy.
Although Keihei, who is now seventeen years old, is not as exaggerated as Kaiba, who was already 1.86 meters tall at the age of sixteen, he is still 1.7 meters tall, but he still looks awkward in front of Hayato who is 1.95 meters tall. It was so imposing, it seemed like he was being coquettish: "I'm asking Hayato-nii what your sudden question about my brother's invention is? If nothing happens, I'll find someone to park the jet in the hangar."
"Oh, I heard from Leorio, who works with you, Xiaojie, that mankind's latest invention will attract enemies to destroy mankind, so I asked Xiaojie if you know anything about it."
"Let's not mention that I have never worked part-time before. Who is Xiaojie?"
"Isn't your name Jay Fulis? Leorio is the Leorio Paladinette."
"That expression of 'How could you not know him' doesn't matter. I'm Keppei!"
Very skillfully, he took a piece of chocolate candy that Hayato had prepared for him. Keipei walked away angrily and asked someone to take the Blue Eyes jet parked on the tarmac to the hangar. A voice came from behind him, "Advance in advance." Happy Children’s Day to you.”
Watching the staff on the dock towing the plane away to prepare for cleaning, fuel filling and other logistical work, Hayato sighed casually: "Kaiba and Keppei can just fly the jet wherever they want, but the logistics staff have to There are so many things to consider, including cleaning the windshield, checking parts for damage, and replenishing fuel, which is really hard work.”
The driver of the Blue Eyes Jet that Hayato saw landing on the island before was not Kaiba. After all, he himself was on the island and never left. The people who drove the jet to the island were the only three people in the world who could touch Kaiba. Keihei, the third member of the Blue Eyes Jet that he values as a treasure—you ask, who is the second person besides the first one being Kaiba? Of course it’s me, Hayato Kobayashi!
As the president of the group, Kaiba naturally has enough power to decide how much support to provide for this duel academy exchange competition to turn the original ordinary duel into a super large-scale event in the virtual world. However, as the vice president of the group, Keppei It is also necessary to come and see how his prodigal brother squandered money and transformed this game into what it is.
The information confirmed from Keppei also led Hayato to focus his suspicion on the virtual world "Duel-Links" and the fully submersible game cabin "Cocoon", but the problem is that although these two things can indeed be regarded as the latest inventions , but their prototypes had been experienced by Kaiba with Hayato many years ago. If he wanted to attract enemies, he should have done so a long time ago. Why now?
Hayato has never experienced a fully stealth virtual game more than once. There was the DM world created by the five bosses, and then there was the virtual world where Naia lived. In addition, Kaiba created this duel connection world that purely serves card playing. How? How can a duel connection attract enemies?
Then again, what kind of enemy is so powerful that Darkness can actually regard it as an existence that can be relied on to destroy mankind?
"Kuri Kuri~"
Next to Hayato, [Rainbow Kuribori Ball] comforted him and said, if the system has the function of detecting Hayato's talent, then it is definitely the SSS-level "Kurizi Ball Language" that translates to "Don't tire yourself."
"That's not enough to use the adjective 'tired', right? It's just a precaution." Hayato replied, "Compared to being like a prison master who is clearly capable but leisurely wandering around until something happens. I only start to be serious and work hard after I have made an irreparable mistake. I still prefer to eliminate the danger in advance to avoid regrets.”
"Curi?"——Who is the prison master?
"Hmm, maybe EVA?"
"Kuri, Kuriku." - Although I still don't quite understand, but those are responsibilities that you don't have to shoulder, Hayato, right?
"No, it's completely wrong." Walking uphill on the way back to the academy, looking at the buildings in the distance, Hayato opened his arms and said, "Although it's not a situation like 'protecting the members is my duty as the leader,' But in my opinion, Duel Academy is my back garden, and I cannot tolerate anyone other than me picking flowers in the garden."
"In other words, Ani, do you think that you are the only one who can cause trouble in the academy, so you want to get rid of all the other troublemakers? Just now, there was a bit of an atmosphere of 'with great power comes great responsibility' It’s all gone now~” [Disturbing·Huang] complained from the card box, “You are a person, all you can think about is your own croaking—”
[Disturbing Green] and [Disturbing Black] covered [Disturbing Yellow]'s big mouth and dragged him back into the card box. At the same time, they hurriedly apologized to Hayato: "[Yellow] didn't say anything, Ani. You continue, you continue—"
He didn't care about the three [disturbing] brothers who were playing tricks, but Hayato sighed with some distress: "It's said that we want to kill the danger that hasn't happened, but the problem is that I don't know where the danger comes from. If it's a program If it’s a question, the two brothers Kaiba and Keihei are enough, and Rebecca is also a good player in this area.”
"But is it really a procedural problem, Master?" [Summoner-Aleister] floated behind Hayato and reminded him, "If you use words like 'enemy', it means you will bring them with you." At least the existence of the crisis is not the danger of being fixed in one place and unable to move, right?"
"Even if it is extremely poisonous that can kill you on contact, it can only be called a 'dangerous material' if it exists alone. It is far less dangerous than the poisonous snakes that are used to carry it." Hayato nodded, "Alai, you What do you think?"
"Master, I think there must be something fishy about this matter." Playing an outdated joke with Hayato very cooperatively, Alai hugged his staff and smiled and said, "If it's not the program itself from that virtual world, no Are there only two possibilities?"
"Either there are powerful beings capable of interfering with reality that were bred in that world, or other beings were attracted to that world and descended. However, if you think according to Master, the creator of that virtual world has the ability to supervise the world. If anything, the possibility of the former will be reduced to almost nothing.”
"I am 10% or even 90% convinced that the so-called 'humanity is destroyed by its enemies caused by its latest inventions', those so-called enemies refer to alien enemies attracted by that virtual world!"
"Tell me the truth, are you flipping the script? Otherwise, how do you know that I just said in the previous chapters that I am invincible?" Hayato complained, "I just set the invincible flag and you gave me the name of an alien enemy." Well, how can the enemy be so powerful?"
"Wave of Light, Seven Emperors of Balian, or Zach? Don't tell me it's Zoroa?"
"Of course it can't be the old one from Juehuo. Anyway, I can't let you, Master, go play Sunuo." Alai, who has been reading comics through Hayato these years, complained. As he spoke, he also nodded to himself. head, "The biggest evidence to support my argument is that the last time I entered that world with Master, I could feel the existence of life energy. It was not caused by the enthusiasm Master when you were dueling with others. Life energy, but life energy that actually carries the magic power from the 'other world'."
"I'm not bragging. Whether it's Endymion or Sandrillon, both of them combined can't compare to me in terms of fine perception of magic power."
(Shanghai King: I have no objection)
"Magic from another world?" Hayato was dubious about Alai's words.
"Master, it's normal that you can't see it. This is also something that only a genius like me who can finely perceive magic can feel. The specific feeling is that it is a tadpole-like black magic that is completely different from the magic of this transparent world. ”
Alai tried his best to describe the magic power of another world in his eyes, "Actually, the [Summoning Magic] I usually use is to absorb as much magic power as possible from another world to open the door to the other world, and then put it on the door. Use tricks to control the creatures that pass by."
(The magic of another world in Alai’s eyes, and the unfinished summoning magic for the first time)
Having said this, Alai suddenly said enthusiastically: "Although I don't know exactly what kind of enemy it is, I can reveal everything as long as I use [Summoning Magic], Master."
"But what's the price, Alai?" Hayato looked at Alai who was smiling slyly and said, "You who usually call out for help always make such nonsense excuses as 'No elbow win [Disturbing·Huang]', but today you So diligent, why don’t you tell me your needs?”
"I'm quite concerned about what happened this time, so you can put forward whatever conditions you want."
Looking at the smile on Hayato's face, Alai felt that something was not right, but he already believed Hayato's words to be true, and said happily: "Really? I have wanted to protest for a long time, Master, I use [ When summoning magic, can't you choose a beautiful lady to fuse with me? I'm really fed up with the experience of merging with those inhuman beings. It's really uncomfortable. Also, I'm with【 Different beings like Shadowdoll and Hellfire Machine, the environment in the cemetery is really not suitable for me and makes me very uncomfortable. Can you please don’t free me or throw me into the cemetery casually——"
Before Alai finished speaking, Hayato raised his eyebrows: "Huh? Do you really dare to make conditions?"
"You'd better return the cards to me. I can find you a female to fuse with or something, but if you ask me not to pile up the tomb or release the cards? That would be more uncomfortable than having me lose cards, okay?"
Hayato took out the card of [Summoner-Aleister] and took it back with a surprised look on his face. Without giving Alai a chance to withdraw his conditions, Hayato took out the card of [Temple's Waterman] and said, "It's not just You know how to summon other worlds, but if you don’t do it, others will be parugans.”
"[Temple Water Sent], come out!"
Seeing Shui Qian sticking up next to Hayato and courting him without asking for any conditions at all, just being able to help Hayato made her so happy that she couldn't help but feel like Alai in the card was about to cry.
Didn't we agree that human beings like to compromise? Seeing the Master smiling so happily, I asked for a little more. Why didn't I even give him a chance to discuss it? And who is that? Why don't you just say "It's my greatest honor to be able to help Hayato-sama" even if you don't ask for it?
You are in trouble *magician expletive*! (End of chapter)
