"I activate the effect of Beast King Barbaros!" She took out the Barbaros from the graveyard and tried to put it in her pocket, but the dress now had no pockets at all, so Yasaki pinched the card and shouted, "Exclude the Barbaros from the graveyard and destroy two cards on the opponent's field."
The furry black tail swung between her legs and she pointed with her finger.
"I will destroy the Mirror Wall of the Silver Screen and the Harpy's Hunting Grounds!"
"The Beast God King is crushed!"
As he raised the red knight's spiral lance, blue lightning appeared on it, and Barbaros roared and pointed forward.
"Hey!"
Two scattered lightning bolts fell on the permanent trap and the field magic respectively.
"What?" Peacock Dance was a little surprised.
As the deep forest scene and crystal wall dissipated, Yasaki said, "This way, Barbaros' attack power will be restored, and your eagle's attack power will all be reduced!"
"Hoohoo!"
Beast King Barbaros (Attack)
3000/1200
Harpie Electronic Bodysuit (Attack)
1800/1300
Harpie Electronic Bodysuit (Attack)
1800/1300
Harpie Electronic Bodysuit (Attack)
1800/1300
Peacock Dancer, who also saw this, whispered, "Is this the new power she has gained?"
"Fight!" Ye Saki said sternly, raising his hand and pointing, "Use Beast King Barbaros to attack the Harpy Girl!"
"Barbaros Shoots!"
The lower half of the gray-black lion's body moved swiftly, leaped across the field and came to the front of the eagle's body, and Barbaros stabbed with his spear!
"Ahhh!" The eagle screamed.
Peacock Dance: 3200 → 2000
"Uh..." Her body trembled, and she looked at the girl opposite her and said, "I still have a lot of basic points left."
Ye Saki said in a shocking voice: "The duel is over."
"?" Peacock Dance asked in confusion.
"Beast King Barbaros can attack all monsters on the opponent's field!"
"What!?" Peacock Dance was shocked.
At this time, Yasaki's next attack declaration arrived.
"Beast King Barbaros, attack!"
"Fall!" The lion pounced and the second eagle was killed.
Peacock Dance: 2000 → 800
The spear, shining with blood-red light, was swung, and the last eagle's body screamed and shattered.
Looking at the strong wind and waves sweeping over, Peacock Dance's pupils trembled slightly.
"This is her realization, right?... Ugh!!"
Peacock Dance: 800 → 0
Fu!
Falling heavily to the ground, Kong Quewu grimaced in pain, opened her mouth and closed her eyes. She no longer had the demeanor of a mature and charming big sister who was sometimes cool and sometimes frivolous.
When she recovered a little, she saw Yasaki approaching.
"Get up." She still had that cold expression, but she stretched out her hand.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, Peacock Dancer, who was sitting on the ground, looked at her unpredictable expression, pursed his lips and said, "I'm sorry for doing that. I will find a way to pay it back."
Ye Saki didn't say anything about forgiveness, but only said: "I'm not the one you need to repay."
She didn't forgive, but maybe she would need to perform the peacock dance next.
Just as Kongquewu grabbed her hand and stood up from the ground, applause suddenly sounded behind her.
"Crack! Crack!"
The two girls turned around at the same time and saw You Yiming who had appeared there without them noticing.
"You Yiming?"*2
"It was a great duel." He smiled slightly, "But next, there is something for you to do."
Chapter 215: The streets are so quiet, no one is around
Professor Hopkins' home is somewhere in Nevada in western America, not too far from Washington State, where the International Illusion Society's headquarters is located.
(PS: The location of the International Illusion Agency headquarters has been changed from New York to Seattle. In the anime, Rebecca rides a horse and wears a cowboy hat in a deserted environment, so her hometown should be somewhere in the West. It's too far to drive there from New York. In addition, Atlantis sank in the Atlantic Ocean, and it makes sense that the headquarters of Doma is in Florida, which is close to the Atlantic Ocean. The route of the protagonists in the Olihagang chapter should be roughly from west to east.)
As the sun sets, on a small loess road surrounded by barren mountains, a blonde girl dressed in a smart cowboy outfit is riding a white horse loaded with fruits, vegetables, bread and flour, strolling on the road.
The girl tied her blond hair into a ponytail that fluttered behind her. The square glasses hanging on her high nose bridge gave her a sense of knowledge and sophistication. Although there were a few freckles on her face, they did not hide her beauty, but made her look even more lovely. From her childish face, you can tell that she is not very old. In fact, she is only twelve years old.
The girl's name is Rebecca Hopkins. She is the granddaughter of Professor Hopkins, a famous American archaeologist. She is a genius girl in every way.
Academically, she is a college graduate, and in Duel Monsters, she is the U.S. champion.
Although the record is not very good, at least I have won, which is better than some geniuses with 0 win rate.
Just as Rebecca was riding home, the white horse under her suddenly became a little restless and kept neighing.
"Whoa, whoa." She pulled the reins and carefully soothed the horse. "I'm sorry, Billy, the food is a bit too much, but if you hold on a little longer, we'll be home."
However, this was not the reason for the horse's restlessness. Just as she stopped, she suddenly heard the sound of a propeller turning above her head.
The strong wind made the girl confused, so she lifted her bangs and looked up.
A black helicopter had passed overhead at some point and was heading forward.
"Who is this?" Rebecca was a little confused.
There aren't many people living in this area nearby. Judging from the direction, this should be the place to look for grandma?
Perhaps it was because of the appearance of the helicopter that the white horse named Billy did not dare to move for a moment, and Rebecca could only watch the other party fly forward on the ground.
When she got home, she saw a thin old woman being held hostage by several men in black and entering a helicopter.
"Grandma? Grandma!" Rebecca quickly pulled the reins, "Billy, come over here!"
"Da da da da da..." As the propeller turned again, the helicopter gained lift and gradually took off.
"Grandma!" Rebecca pulled the reins and turned to chase the helicopter, but the next second...
"Boom!"
The house behind her suddenly exploded, and the loud impact knocked her and her horse to the ground.
"Ah!" Looking back at the house where flames were shooting up into the sky and thick black smoke was billowing, the half-grown girl's pupils shrank and she trembled, her face turned extremely pale, obviously she was extremely frightened.
She finally recovered from the shock of the explosion and looked in the direction the helicopter was leaving. A card just happened to fall from the sky and landed in front of her.
Rebecca picked up the card and saw the content on it, and her expression changed slightly.
In a helicopter heading to an unknown destination, Professor Hopkins, who was wearing reading glasses, glanced at the burly men in suits on both sides, then set his eyes on the very tall blonde woman sitting opposite him.
She could sense that this group of people was led by the woman in front of her. She asked in a deep voice, "Who are you and why did you arrest me?"
When she was young, she and Muto Soryu encountered many bizarre stories. She was still calm, but she was very worried about her granddaughter.
The person who caught her was naturally Rafiru. She was very capable and after leaving Doma headquarters, she investigated the next whereabouts of Youhua and others, so she caught Hopkins.
As for blowing up the house, it was because they discovered that the other party had indeed researched a lot of things about Doma, and they wanted to destroy the research data.
"Relax, Professor Hopkins." Rafiru smiled and spoke in a soothing tone, "We won't hurt you. In fact, you are not our target. We will release you when we move to another place, and someone will compensate you for the house."
If it was Professor Hopkins when she was young, her soul might be worth hunting, but she is old now and can no longer be called a "strong person."
Hearing this, Hopkins' pupils shrank slightly: "You...are you the organization hidden behind history?"
Rafiru did not respond to this.
On the other hand, the resolute Kaiba Seko had just visited the university where Professor Hopkins worked with Mu Ling, but they didn't find anyone.
Mu Ling, who was carrying a briefcase, turned to look at the tall woman beside her: "Professor Hopkins doesn't seem to be here, sister."
Looking back at the university sign behind her, Seko said in a deep voice: "It seems that she is researching and organizing materials at home during this period. Let's go directly to her house."
The two sisters walked together towards the car parked on the street, and the car started and quickly drove into the street.
Neither Seko nor Mu Ling noticed that there was a red-haired woman staring at them on the rooftop of a residential building not far away.
"Kiba Seko..."
The woman was naturally Emeruda who had followed all the way. She stared at the black car passing by on the street below, then turned around and disappeared onto the rooftop.
Sitting in the back seat of the car, Mu Ling looked out the window from time to time.
After the car drove for a long distance, she suddenly made a strange discovery.
"It's so strange, onee-sama. It's evening, but there's not a single person on the road. It's so quiet. It's completely different from Tomino City."
At this time, it should be time to get off work, and the streets should be full of people.
Seko didn't really care, she just raised her lips and said, "Maybe today is 'No one should go out day'."
Mu Ling looked at her in confusion: "Is there such a festival?"
"Anyway, the road is easier to drive now," Seko said, then changed the subject, "Full speed ahead!"
The driver immediately responded, "Yes, Master Seko."
"Boom~" The car engine roared and began to accelerate. The scenery on both sides quickly retreated and disappeared. The two sisters in the back seat also felt a slight push on their backs.
"Squeak--" Suddenly, the car braked slammingly.
Mu Ling, who was not wearing a seat belt, crashed into the front seat back before she could react. Fortunately, Seko next to her reacted quickly and hugged her, but she was also crashed into the front seat.
It's okay.
"Uh~ Onee-sama..."
"I'm fine." Seko's expression was slightly cold. "What are you doing?"
The driver seemed a little scared and quickly replied: "Master Seko, the guy in front suddenly appeared!"
"Hmm?" Seko frowned and looked forward. There was indeed a red-haired woman standing there.
The other party raised his left hand, and the bronze duel disk unfolded with a click, then he picked up a card and dropped it directly.
"Roar!" As the hot flames gathered, a monster with wings on its back, shaped like a dragon but with an ugly devil face and a raging fire burning on its head appeared.
"Duel Monsters?" When the driver asked in doubt, Seko felt an inexplicable throbbing coming from the deck.
Then the monster opened its ferocious mouth, and dazzling flames gathered in it in an instant.
"Run!" Alarm bells suddenly rang in her heart. Seko's eyes focused and she immediately hugged her sister beside her, kicked the car door open and jumped out.
The fireball released by the monster summoned by the mysterious woman landed on the other side of the car with a "bang". The explosion caused by the powerful energy directly blew the car away from the heads of the two sisters.
"Ah!" Mu Ling on the ground screamed.
"Ahhhh!" The driver in the car was also screaming in horror.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" After colliding and rolling several times on the ground, the car hit the wall and regained its four-wheel position. However, the driver in the driving seat had already passed out from the continuous impact, holding the airbag.
Chapter 216: Emeruda's Attack
After taking a look at the car that had landed not far away, Seko, who was holding her sister's hand tightly, looked at the red-haired woman in front of her with a grim expression.
"Hmph~" She snorted coldly, sizing him up coldly and said, "You are really a rat from Dorma."
