Chapter 569 Discovery of the Crisis
Chapter 569 Discovery of the Crisis (5K)
The next day.
Professor Chronos announced this incident in front of all the teachers and students in the school.
The school has lost contact with the outside world for a short period of time, and the school is trying hard to reconnect with the outside world. Before that, it is hoped that students can run around as little as possible in the college. It is best to stay in the teaching building during the day and stay in the dormitory at night, which will reduce the possibility of encountering danger.
In addition, when you are in external activities, be careful of classmates who come close to you for some reason and be cautious of them.
The school is working hard to develop and equip relevant protective measures. Students should remain as vigilant as possible before obtaining new equipment.
It has to be said that with professors from the Duel Academy all over the world present, the research capability of the Duel Academy is indeed sufficient. In just one night, a professor who specialized in "virtual imaging" technology realized the basic logic behind the elves' attack on humans. He then prepared a design plan - a single transparent pair of glasses that imitated the X-dimensional duel goggles, which could effectively distinguish whether a person was an elf or not, minimizing the difficulty for students in distinguishing.
Amagi Hikaru has tried it before. Logically, it is not the same as Amagi Hikaru's "psychological observation mirror". It is an identification of the power of elves, so it may not be so accurate. However, it has the support of the school's resources, so it can be mass-produced quickly.
In addition to this kind of observation equipment, the school also distributed protective devices to all students. This is a device for protecting against elves that Kaiba Corporation mass-produced at critical points after students were attacked by elves from the Dark World. It can be directly installed in the duel disk to resist sudden attacks by elves.
Although it takes seven to ten days to charge and can only be effective once each time, it provides a layer of protection for students, which means a little more life safety.
Following Professor Chronos's arrangements, the students gradually began to relax from their initial panic, and some carefree people even started talking and laughing.
The academy is originally an isolated island, and many of these students come to Duel Academy just to avoid the nagging of their families. Now they can be completely "isolated from the outside world", which seems to be quite fun.
But there are also some who are worried.
Since Duel Academy has lost contact with the outside world, will there be any problems with food supply?
After all, there were thousands of people in the academy. If there was a shortage of food, there would be no need for those elves to attack. They would starve to death themselves...
"Hehehe, don't worry about that." Coach Napoleon heard this and directly answered the student's question, "There will be no shortage!"
impossible?
The supplies for Duel Academy are basically provided by Kaiba Corporation. In most cases, they are shipped together with new cards by air or sea to the "canteen" of Duel Academy - although it is a canteen, it is actually the school's resource department.
Under normal circumstances, the food in Duel Academy would definitely be enough for the students to eat for a month or so. But with the current blockade, it is unclear how long it will last. Will it really be enough?
"Hahahaha - classmate, you really worry too much about this kind of thing!" Coach Napoleon laughed and pulled over a teacher who looked kind and had a low presence.
Many students even had no impression of this teacher.
But Amagi Hikaru still knew this teacher very well - this was his dormitory head, Mr. Kabayama.
Although Amagi Hikaru has been promoted to Blue College, he actually still lives in the Yellow College dormitory. It's not that he is homesick or anything, but because Mr. Karayama has provided him a lot of help before, so it is impossible for Amagi Hikaru to just leave.
Including last night, Mitsuru Amagi followed Teacher Karayama to look for classmates from Yellow College, while Blue College was completely handed over to the newly arrived Ed - he also enjoyed doing it, and in things like this, even though he said you're welcome, he still liked to help others in his heart.
Mr. Huashan is the dormitory head of Huang Academy and also the teacher of home economics at Duel Academy. He is usually responsible for teaching students cooking skills. He is the kind of teacher who has little presence in a school like Duel Academy that specializes in teaching students how to duel.
However, as a teacher, he also has his own "talents".
That’s right—he is a super curry fanatic known as the “Curry Demon”.
Just like the alchemy deck in the original work by Daitokuji Sensei, Karayama Sensei is also good at the "cooking deck". His curry deck even made Kenzan in the original work sweat profusely.
In this dimension, this Kabayama teacher has gone a step further and has been blessed by the "Curry Devil", possessing the terrifying ability to use cards to connect to the curry dimension!
So - as long as he is here, there is basically no possibility of "food shortage".
Therefore, even if all the food at the Duel Academy was eaten, everyone could still eat curry as usual and eat as long as they wanted.
Although Tiancheng Guang didn't like curry very much, he had eaten at Huang Academy every day for a period of time, so he didn't hate curry. Besides, for Tiancheng Guang, eating was enough as long as he was full.
Compared to eating, most of the students were more concerned about the fact that because they were cut off from the outside world, new cards from the outside world could not be delivered to the Duel Academy as usual.
After roughly confirming these things, the teachers of the academy were divided into two groups under the arrangement of Professor Chronos. One group was the housekeeping teachers who provided services and courses to the students of the school as usual, and the other group, led by Professor Chronos, was responsible for exploring the current situation of the academy in order to find the reasons for everything, break the blockade, and get in touch with the outside world.
The two groups of teachers are not fixed but alternate.
Students don’t need to worry about the situation in school, they just need to study hard as students.
However, at Tiancheng Guang's strong application, Tiancheng Guang was given the right to explore freely in the academy after that.
Of course, even if he hadn't applied, Amagi Hikaru would not listen to the professor and would definitely explore the surrounding situation carefully.
This was natural. Not only Amagi Hikaru, but also students like Judai, Manjome, John, Jim... these students who were either carefree or had their own ambitions would not just wait like this.
Ed attended the day's classes seriously. After listening to the professors' lectures in the morning, he deeply felt that these professors were indeed versatile.
After reading Amagi Hikaru's notes, he became even more interested in the content of the courses taught in previous classes.
Elven power, role-playing duels, demonic rituals, in addition, there are also departments of replication, computing, and science. Almost every professor has his or her own unique points.
For example, Professor Paladin's Knight Duel was the course that inspired him the most.
He lost his father when he was young, leaving only the Destiny Heroes as his father's relics. Since then, he has been eager to find the murderer of his father, so he disguised himself as "Phoenix Man" all over the world and specialized in arresting criminals who stole and robbed cards. So he could clearly feel that with his efforts, his resonance with the Destiny Heroes became stronger and stronger.
But in fact, half a year ago, Ed still sensed a hint of his own "bottleneck".
According to the course content of this professor, he should be the type of person who "acts very realistically but is actually quite resistant."
Indeed, as a user of a hero deck, he spontaneously strives to become a hero and wants to capture the murderer of his father. He uses "hatred" and "anger" as motivation to drive the Destiny Hero.
But he himself understood.
The reason why he chose the hero deck was not because of anger or hatred, but because he loved the heroes.
That is why, when he learned that the murderer of his father was his adoptive father, his worldview collapsed temporarily, and he was taken advantage of by the light wave.
At that time, he doubted everything and no longer considered himself a hero, but rather a puppet of fate.
It was not until the duel with Mitsuru Amagi that he realized that it was not a trick of fate, but the "awakening of fate."
Decide to become a hero with your own will, your own destiny, and your own beliefs, rather than being forced by fate to become a hero.
From this perspective, he seems to have reached the second stage of "Knight Duel"?
Ed flipped through Hikaru Amagi's notes and nodded continuously.
If that was the case, then he knew what he should do in the future.
No longer "acting" but truly "becoming".
It seems that the professors of Duel Academy do have their own strengths.
As he was flipping through the pages, he suddenly stopped moving. Looking at the contents of his class notes, he froze in his seat with his eyes wide open.
"Why, could it be that——"
He seemed to have thought of something, quickly put away Amagi Hikaru's notes, and left his seat like the wind, not even planning to listen to the next class.
In the second grade classroom, Manjomu noticed a flash of Ed and frowned slightly.
Ed?
Shouldn't he be looking over Tiancheng's notes to catch up on the professors' lessons over the past few days?
Those lessons should be very useful even for professional duelists, so why did he leave suddenly?
etc--
It seems that Tiancheng hasn’t appeared for a long time?
Could it be that Tiancheng wants to ask Ed for help?
When he thought of this, he instantly threw the things in his hand onto the table, grabbed the duel disk and ran out.
"Lightning, the next class is about to start!" Several of his acquaintances from Blue Academy called out to him.
"Please ask for leave for me!" Wanzhangmu shouted in return.
Ed ran to the Duel Academy faculty floor, opened the teacher's office, and glanced inside.
Not in——
When the teacher on duty was about to greet the famous professional duelist, he slammed the door shut and ran like crazy to the other side of the teaching building.
Halfway through the run, he seemed to realize something and shouted, "Phoenix Man!"
The figure of the Phoenix Man emerged from beside him, and then he opened the window next to him and jumped out.
Wanzhangmu rushed to this floor one step later and saw Ed jumping out of the window. He then went to the window and looked in the direction Ed was flying.
That location is...
Canteen? Ed landed in the canteen of the Duel Academy teaching building, opened the door, and looked around for a long time.
not there!
"Who are you looking for!?"
The next moment, Manzhangmu, riding on the LV5 Armed Dragon, flew to his side.
"Where would the teacher in charge of logistics and food in the academy be?"
he asked hurriedly.
When Wanzhangmu heard his words, his body shuddered, and a golden light seemed to flash in his head.
Ah!
He shook his head and reached out to pull Ed, who simply flipped over and jumped onto the armed dragon.
"There is another place, the freezer. This is your first time here, so you probably don't know—"
Manjomu said quickly, and then called on the armed dragon to fly faster.
The cold storage is not in the Duel Academy teaching building, but next to a warehouse not far from the canteen. When the two of them first arrived here, a professor was there.
"Professor Seraph?" Wanzhangmu and Ed landed and called out.
The teacher of "Demonic Ritual" is "Seraphim".
"Professor, what are you doing here!" Ed asked directly.
"Hehe, Ed-san, I'm just worried..."
"Professor, you just finished class in the morning. Even if you have finished your lunch, you shouldn't come here, right?" Wanzhangmu also realized something and his face suddenly became serious.
"Demon Ritual... A ritual to summon elves, demons or something else into this world... Why didn't I think of it before?" Manjomu said slowly, "Damn it, Professor, could it be that those things around us——"
"100 points!" Seraph couldn't help but applaud, "Manjomu-san, you are indeed an excellent student - you guessed right!
This high wall surrounding the Duel Academy Island was built under my guidance!"
It really is!
Wanzhangmu's face looked a little ugly.
Professor Seraph's course was very interesting and also provided a possibility for Manjomu to experimentally summon the "Sword Dragon", so he even talked with Professor Seraph many times.
"Why! Professor!" Manjomu questioned, "Could it be that you are possessed by a spirit——"
"Don't you think humans are too ugly?" Seraph suddenly spoke.
?
Both of them were stunned.
Seraph gently rubbed his eyes with one hand and spoke slowly: "God created human beings and gave them land to grow, but human beings destroyed nature, started wars, killed other lives, and even spared their fellow human beings.
The world is full of people who duel for profit, people who initiate duels for profit, people who call themselves duelists for some petty gains...
In order to fight for powerful cards, they fight each other, and even assassinate, rob, and steal. It is dirty and disgusting.
Compared to elves, who live purely for dueling, humans are really too dirty."
"Is he... an anti-humanist?" Although he agrees with some of Seraph's remarks, Ai De will only target individuals and criminals, and will not kill all human beings at once. "It seems that knowledge cannot represent character."
Wan Zhangmu's face was grim. He never expected that during this period of time, among all the professors, the one with whom he had the best relationship was actually such a professor - a real anti-human!
"At this moment, I am standing in front of the cold storage door; Huashan is not in the college, the cafeteria, or the Huang College dormitory, so he can only be here.
In that case, that's even better, I'll grab all the food and Kabayama here.
And you humans, just perish completely in the darkness."
"Arming the dragon——" Manzhangmu commanded the dragon to attack.
At least force him to duel!
"Heh... As expected, humans only know how to fight. In that case..."
A sneer appeared on the Seraph's face.
As a European, he had blond hair and blue eyes and looked quite strong, but as his smile grew, his short blond hair gradually turned gray. At the same time, a strange snake-shaped rune appeared at the corner of his eye, and a red halo slowly emerged on his head.
"Lucifer!"
bang——
Black wings spread out from his side, as if an extremely powerful guardian angel had spread his wings, isolating everything from him.
Lucifer!?
Ed and Wanzhang were both shocked.
Shouldn't this be - the highest level fallen angel?
"You, you are an apostle!?" Wanzhangmu was shocked.
He remembered that Professor Chronos had been attacked by an "Apostle" of a fallen angel before!
There is actually an apostle among the professors! ?
Why have I never discovered it before?
However, no matter what, they could no longer stop Professor Seraph.
Seraph sneered for a moment, turned around and pushed open the door of the cold storage.
As the cold storage door opened, sunlight slowly shone into the cold storage. Countless cold air emerged from the cold storage and turned into white mist, covering all directions. The angel wings behind the Seraph flapped slowly.
As long as the food and Birch Mountain are dealt with, the humans here will be dead.
That's what he thought.
However, with the cold air and sunlight, the smile on his face gradually froze.
"Ah?" "Huh!?"
The two boys exclaimed.
The cold storage slowly opened, and a figure was seen sitting calmly on a wooden scaffolding.
He was wearing a large blue academy uniform that only the head of the academy could wear, with a latest model of Kaiba Corporation Duel Disk hanging on his left arm. Next to him was a bored green-haired elf who was looking out the door with his hands folded behind his head.
"...Amagi Hikari?"
"Minister!" "Amagi!"
The professor's smile gradually cooled, but the two students couldn't help cheering.
It seems——
Someone thought more and earlier than they did!
"Professor Seraph? It's you..." Amagi Hikaru was very surprised.
He thought he would see Professor Cobra and Huber coming over to kick the door.
Seraph gently pinched his brows and asked, "Where's Huashan?"
"How could I possibly say that?"
"That's right..." Seraph nodded slightly.
Then, he slowly raised his left hand and slowly opened the duel disk: "In this case, let me, as a professor, teach you some knowledge...
If you rashly face and [summon] powerful spirits before you have sufficient strength, you will only suffer."
The halo on his forehead spun further, and then it seemed as if holy light descended from the sky, illuminating all directions, like a hymn or a sacrament.
Tian Chengguang calmly raised his left hand and said, "Then I will listen to your last lesson."
"Ha, what a big tone..." Professor Seraph laughed in anger.
"Duel!" X2.
