Chapter 346:

   "Although the underworld of this world is very chaotic and terrifying, I still insisted on finding a few undead who are still sane and inquiring about the situation!"

   Hoshino with the beating corner of his eyes, I don't know why this kind of thing came out of Ai Lei's mouth, and he felt like asking a passerby for directions when he was lost.

"--Zok Nelofa! The master of this world underworld was once the **** who stood at the apex of this world. Moreover, he is not only the master of the underworld, but also commanding the human world and the underworld, the incarnation of the darkness of the two worlds. "

   Hoshino was surprised. The name Zoke Nelofa seemed to have been mentioned by Leonardo da Vinci.

   The true master of this world underworld, the great dark evil **** Zoke. It is said to be related to the Millennium Seven Sacred Tool, and the existence of the Millennium Seven Sacred Tool itself is the key to open the door to the underworld of this world.

   "Command the incarnation of the darkness of the two worlds, it's no wonder that the Millennium Seven Artifact has such a huge dark power."

   Compared with the **** of Olihagan, who uses the power of planetary darkness as food, this great evil **** Zoke seems to have more darkness from the underworld. And the intensity of the dark power of the underworld must be several times stronger than the human world in which humans exist.

   "Sounds like it feels very powerful...Ah, I don't mean that Ai Lei you are not good, Ai Lei sauce is also great!"

   squeezed her small fist, and Ai Lei vowed to say: "Of course, as the master of the underworld, I don't want to lose to the kind of **** who has left his turf and ignored it."

   "Elei, you said,'Leave your own turf and abandon it'? And also said that Zoke Nelofa'once' was the **** at the apex of this world."

   After capturing the hidden information in Ilei’s words, Hoshino guessed: "That is, the current Zoke Nelofa, just like our world, disappeared with the end of God's generation?"

Ai Lei's eyes gradually became more serious: "No, master, the gods of this world have always been left. And according to what I understand, Zoke Nelofa disappeared out of thin air three thousand years ago, and since then There is no trace left in this world anymore."

   "The Dark Cthulhu-Zok Nerofa... disappeared three thousand years ago, leaving behind an empty and chaotic underworld."

   Hoshino, who has clarified his thoughts, even if he knows what Elei said is already three thousand years ago, but the bad premonition lingers.

  The reason is that the Seven Thousand-Year Seven Sacred Artifacts related to the Great Cthulhu Zoke, which has obviously been silent for three thousand years, but they have appeared one after another recently. Among them are the thousand-year eyes, the thousand-year wisdom wheel, and the thousand-year tin rod.

   "Is there any information that has been investigated, reliable Ai Lei Jiang"

   Facing Hoshino's questioning, Ai Lei squeezed embarrassedly: "No...no more. Actually I investigate these, just want to chat with the master for a while."

  Ilei, who is a little arrogant on weekdays, can't find an excuse to talk to Hoshino under the surveillance of the fanatical heroes. So it was hard to seize this opportunity, even if I got a mess in the unfamiliar underworld, as long as I could say a few more words with Hoshino, it seemed worth it.

   "The soul named Keith Howard was submerged in that underworld, and even I couldn't find it. I lost my promise before, but the master disappointed you."

   "I asked too much. It is not something that humans can intervene to reverse things like life and death..."

   sighed lightly, it may be that the arrival of the ten generations changed Hoshino's mood.

   Keith, who was originally greedy for life and fear of death, should be enlightened when he stepped onto the battlefield of life and death as a duelist in order to protect important people.

   "Also, thinking from another angle, Keith's soul was not found in the underworld like hell. Perhaps it is because Keith, who found meaning at the end of his life, has ascended to heaven"

   Three days later——

  Keith·Howard19xx20xx

Before the tombstone of    Keith, no relatives or friends from the past came to pay homage. The deserted scene is the most true portrayal of his sad life.

   "It's ironic, Keith. I didn't expect that the only person who came to see you after you died was me...Of course I won't pray for you."

   Standing in front of the deserted tombstone, Hoshino glanced at the empty and cold surroundings, and sighed softly.

   "Actually, I'm here too, Uncle Keith..."

   Standing behind Hoshino, Akashia, a petite figure, suddenly stuck his head out: "Is it a pleasant surprise? You would never have thought that after your death, you would be visited by two lovely girls at the same time."

Hoshino added with a smile: "Of course, there should have been three lovely girls here. It's just that the eldest lady seems to have not been relieved from the shock and cannot be discharged for the time being. Let Keith miss the last experience of the peak of life. Opportunity, what a pity"

   bent down slightly, Hoshino placed the deck that he removed from the Keith duel plate in front of the grave.

   "Also, as a duelist, the most precious thing can't be forgotten. Although you were very sorry for the title of duelist for your despicable behavior before, but in the end fighting to protect the important person, it is undeniable that it is very handsome."

   Learning Hoshino's movements, Akashia carefully took out a box of mysterious objects from his arms and placed it in front of Keith's grave.

   "Uncle Keith, this is your favorite French fries. Akasha, I don't like to owe favor to others except sister Hoshino. If you are still hungry, I hope you can eat more."

   There was probably nothing to say to Kisto, and Hoshino turned and left after putting down the deck.

   "Oh, yes, there is one last point... Tomorrow is the KC competition. I will avenge your grudges for you, so you don't have to worry about Clara falling into Sieg Lloyd's hands."

Chapter 44: The opening of the KC competition and Hoshino's retreat practice

  San Francisco, the preliminaries of the KC competition——

   "There are our contestants! The quarter-finals who used to duel in the city, the flame duel-Katsuya Jonouchi!"

   It was probably because it was the first time to participate in this kind of global live broadcast event, and I desperately wanted to show my own city. I cooperated with the host's reading and put on the stage that I thought was very handsome.

   Akasha showed an uncomfortable expression: "Junouchi's Yan Yi, no matter how many times I watch it, it is so disgusting..."

   The posture that you think is very handsome, coupled with the expression that you think is very handsome, you may cause a cliff-like decline in live broadcast ratings.

   "Then our other player is... the legendary duelist, the rock mask with a mysterious identity!!"

  The opponent in the first duel in the castle-Rock Mask. An old grandfather with a turban around his head, with strange spectacles on his face...but that's not the point.

   Kyoko's mouth twitched, and asked, "This is the grandfather of the game anyway..."

   However, the game also looked like a bewildered face, completely blinded in the dark: "It is indeed grandpa. But why does grandpa come to participate in the KC competition?"

  Different from the mixed competition like Duel City, only a few elite duelists from all over the world can be invited to the KC competition.

   Honda looked at Double Six who was also posing as a ‘handsome’ posture on the stage, and suddenly realized: "Is the grandpa of the game actually a very powerful duelist with hidden identity?!"

   Holding the wrist of the game, Rebecca proudly said: "Since Darling's duel skills are so powerful, Grandpa's words will definitely not be bad!"

   squinted at Rebecca who was holding the game, Kyoko was a little uncomfortable: "Rebecca, your game should have started too, is it really okay to hang out here?"

   As the national duel champion, Rebecca was naturally invited by the KC competition. And in order to speed up the process of the KC competition and let the competition end within one day, all contestants will randomly start the competition at different entertainment facilities in San Francisco Seahorse Park.

   As for the random entertainment facilities...Those who were drawn to play cards on roller coasters and Ferris wheels should have already been in their hearts.

   After three more rounds of elimination, the two remaining winners will be qualified to play against Hoshino Chiyuki and Muto respectively. This is also the most important gimmick for the KC competition to attract so many spectators.

   stuck out her tongue at Kyoko, and Rebecca tightened the game again: "Rebecca, where I duel is in the fairy tale town next door, don't need Kyoko to worry about you."

Being caught between the two people, the game at a loss can only squeeze out an awkward smile: "Hehe, I haven't seen Grandpa's duel with my own eyes. But why does Grandpa use this kind of crappy and strange costume to participate in the competition? what."

   "If it's Hoshino's sister, you should think this drag style is very handsome"

   The double-sixth old man's change of Rock Mask reminds Akash of the model of Hoshino wearing a gray cloak and metal goggles for the first time.

   "Speaking of Miss Hoshino, why didn't you see her."

   was invited to come to support together, the sister Shizuka in the castle, looked around for a little familiar friends, but did not find Hoshino.

   Akashya recalled: "Yesterday Hoshino said that she was going to retreat to practice... Then she left the hotel alone and never showed up again."

   "Cultivation, you say Hoshino and her?" The game is a bit unbelievable. A duelist like Hoshino actually needs to conduct so-called ‘retreat training’ before participating in the KC competition.

   "But if you are fighting monsters...what can you practice in retreat?"

   Shizuka tilted her head, trying to imagine. Then Hoshino gradually emerged in his mind, standing under the turbulent waterfall, practicing drawing cards under the pressure of the water.

   "It may also be the case!"

  Akaxia's mind is the scene of Hoshino standing on one foot on the top of a long slender bamboo pole, fighting against the mysterious powerhouse on the opposite side.

   Kyoko reluctantly vomited: "What you imagine is the practice of martial arts! How can this practice help duel monsters?"

   "But even if Sister Hoshino didn't rush back, I have a backup plan" He raised the duel plate on his arm with confidence, and Akashia smiled expectantly.

   "At that time, I only need to use the heroic lily card set that Hoshino's sister left me, disguise as the king of duels, and replace her in the semi-finals."

   Nursery rhyme: "Pretending to be a master to participate in a duel, it seems very interesting Akashia!"

  Jack: "Just do it, Akash, Jack feels so fun too"

   "No, no, no, just looking at the height difference between you and Hoshino of Akash, this kind of thing is completely impossible to achieve!"

   Kyoko feels that Akash may have some misunderstanding of the word "transformation"...this is not "transformation".

  ......

   The KC competition was in full swing. Muto's double six in the first battle unexpectedly showed an unexpectedly amazing strength, using the ancient secret treasure deck to suppress the castle.

   But in the end, because of being too excited, it flashed to the old waist and caused poor condition. He was thrown for 6 points with [Baoza of Destiny] by Jouchi, drawing 6 cards in a row with no hands and turned the game back.

  【Boza of Destiny Magic Card Effect: Roll a dice, draw a card with the number of dice points from the deck, and then remove the card with the number of dice points at the top of the deck from the game. 】

  The duel is over, the winner Katsuya Jounouchi!

   "It's shameless, this treasure!" Akashia complained angrily.

   This [Baoza of Destiny] is in the hands of the city, it is like an enhanced version of [Baoza of Destiny] that does not require a replacement card for the opposite side.

   took off the double six with the weird headgear, and praised it without hesitation: "I can defeat me, I deserve to be in the city of my big disciple!"

  In the city, there was an extremely shocked expression, and he looked at Double Six in disbelief: "You...you...you, it turns out that the true identity of Rock Mask is actually you, the grandfather of Double Six!"

   "..." The crowd was speechless, and you didn't even notice such crappy cross-dressing. Are you serious in the city?

The complacency on   's face deepened a little further, revealing the true identity of the double six, as if the old waist that flashed to it didn't hurt so much.

   "Hmm, my cross-dress is really perfect! I want to give you a surprise. Isn't it obvious that no one can tell?"

   "..." Everyone was speechless again, except for your big disciple city, everyone else could see it at a glance.

   The first round of the KC Contest ended. After half of the participants were eliminated, the second round of the competition began. Of course, Rebecca, who was dueling in Fairy Tale next door, also easily advanced without any suspense.

   However, Akashia took a closer look. Zieg Lloyd, who was also a contestant, still killed his opponent in just one round this time.

   "There are two more rounds, and the semi-finals are about to begin. Sister Hoshino will not want pigeons at this critical moment, right?"

Chapter 45: At the end of the preliminaries, the real red-eyed black blade dragon that smashed the electric light

   The third round of the knockout round of the KC Contest, Jouchi VS Rebecca——

   "Launch an attack, the red-eyed black dragon! The blasting black flame bomb!"

   [True Red Eyed Black Dragon ATK: 2400]

   Do you also take the dragon as your wife? .jpg

   The scorching fire bullet spitting out from the mouth of the black dragon exploded on the Rebecca angel monster.

   [Power Angel ATK: 1800] Destroyed

   After the black flames were swept away, there were no other monsters left in Rebecca's field.

  城内 LP: 4000

   Rebecca LP: 4000→3400

   Facing Rebecca, the youngest national champion, Jouchi didn't lose the wind at all, and he also summoned his ace monster, the red-eyed black dragon queen, to gain a big advantage.

   "Eonni sauce, he is so amazing!" Shizuka grabbed Honda's cuff in surprise. Although she had always believed that her brother had good duel strength in the city, she did not expect to be able to compete with the national championship or even gain an advantage.

   Enjoying the sudden happiness, Honda laughed proudly: "Of course, sister Shizuka! After all, at the beginning, I taught the city to play the duel monster card!"

  Actually, Honda didn't lie, but he didn't expect it himself. He bought a few duel monster cards on the street to show off to the city, which opened the way for a generation of gambling kings to play cards.

   "Finally, I cover 1 card and the round ends."

   "My round, draw a card!"

  The duel continued, and Rebecca, who was unwilling to admit defeat, once again summoned a cute angel monster on the field.

   "Usually summoned in the form of attack, [Inject Angel lily]! Then activate the equipment magic card [Dakula's Sword] from the hand card-Angel monsters can only be equipped, and the attack power will increase by 500 points!"

  [Injecting angel lily★★★land] [Angel family/effect ATK: 400→900DEF: 1500]

  Jack: "Wow, a new lily monster has been discovered, hurry up and go hunting for cards, Akash!"

   "Jack, this lily should be different from yours."

   "What's the difference, isn't it all lily and kids?"

"I do not know either..."

   Although it feels different, Akashya can't tell the specific reason.

   "Fight, inject the angel lily, and attack the [True Red-Eyed Black Dragon] on the field in the castle!"

   The cute angel holding a giant needle, stirring the white wings behind him, slowly flies towards the real red-eyed black dragon.

  "——At the moment of damage calculation, the effect of injecting angel lily is activated! Paying 2000 points of life, this card only increases its attack power by 3000 points during the damage calculation phase!"

   Rebecca LP: 3400→1400
