章節 28: Chapter 27:Mr.T
Xuelang was taken aback, realizing that there was only one minute left in the closed beta's time limit.
...shoot! How can I complete the task in one minute..
"What's wrong?" Yuyu noticed Xuelang's sudden halt and turned to ask.
Xuelang's face twisted in pain.
"Um... I suddenly have an urgent matter, a very urgent one. So..."
Yuyu understood that the closed beta might be about to end, causing this reaction from Xuelang.
Yuyu waved his hand, expressing understanding. "It's alright, go ahead."
Xuelang felt relieved, grateful for the opportunity to temporarily suspend the task until the next he was online. "Thank you!"
After saying that, Xuelang's avatar turned transparent and disappeared, signifying that he had gone offline.
As for when Xuelang went offline, would an NPC take over the task?
That seemed highly unlikely.
There won't any way for an NPC to snatch a player's mission?
...right?
Yuyu hesitated to continue.
Should he wait for Xuelang to return and come here together to find out what happened?
...Well, the truth was, Yuyu wasn't at ease going alone.
Another advantage of bringing a player along for a task was that, regardless of the enemies encountered, Yuyu could use the player as a decoy and let them investigate on his behalf.
Players are great sacrifice.
After all, players were expendable. Even if they were defeated, they could be resurrected, perfect cannon fodders.
The reason for blindly following Xuelang was that, worst case scenario, Xuelang could act as a shield while Yuyu made his escape.
However, now that the shield were gone, Yuyu hesitated to proceed.
But he quickly realized there was no room for hesitation... or rather, he couldn't hesitate.
*Ding!*
[The mission is triggered! "Challenge from the Mysterious Man!"
Dark power has seeped into the real world from the unknown. Attempt to push back the darkness!
Mission reward: Unknown.]
Though the mission description was unclear, just like the previous "Gurus Challenge Series," there was no option to refuse.
In other words, arriving at this location was already considered triggering a specific task. Perhaps someone lurking here had set their sights on Yuyu, and there was no turning back.
Xuelang seemed to have heard correctly, as the sound of "come here" faintly reached his ears when Yuyu walked towards the middle of the bridge.
The voice was soft and delicate, almost ethereal. However, if one closed their eyes and listened carefully, the voice was surprisingly pleasant, evoking a sense of intelligence.
Having played multiple versions of Linked World in his previous life, Yuyu no stranger to such situations.
The game environment in Linked World was not static. The player's card pool, NPC's card collection, available combos and tactics, and even the rules of monster dueling constantly evolved with each version update.
The later the version, the more diverse the card types possessed by players and NPCs, the greater the variety of decks and tactical combinations, and the more complex the overall environment. The difficulty continued to increase.
But looking at it from a different perspective, the game hasn't even reached version 1.0, and the story is still in its early days. The card types and gameplay are limited, and the environment is relatively simplistic.
Therefore, even though Yuyu currently possesses only a set of incomplete heroes and a mixed deck he won from Pandora, there are not many duelists who can compete with him for an extended period in the current setting.
In fact, he defeated the guy that was the runner-up in the duel kingdom tournament, highlighting his power. Therefore, it is reasonable that Yuyu believes his combat effectiveness should be at least... equivalent toversion 1.5
With such strength, there should be very few tasks at this stage that he cannot handle. But still a bit fear creeped him, who wasn't scared of ghosts.
As the sound faded away, the rushing water under the bridge became louder. A brisk wind blew from the other end of the river, causing the dark weeds on the shore to sway.
He raised his head and noticed a safety sign on the bridge, sponsored by Haima Company. However, what caught his attention was the adorable animated blue-eyed white dragon painted on the sign, wearing a comical safety helmet.
Yuyu: '...'
This highlights President Haima's profound love for the blue-eyed white dragon. Even the president's sports car and jet plane have similar designs, and now even the construction signs proudly display it, emphasizing its significance to him.
The president's obsession has led online users to speculate that his personal preferences may be quite different...
However, there is some reasoning behind this. In the Egyptian chapter of the original Yu-Gi-Oh series, it is revealed that the blue-eyed white dragon was once a lovely girl with blue hair and fair skin. The story connects to Seahorse, who was an Egyptian priest in a past life.
Adjacent to the bridge's pier, a massive circular drainage pipe expelled a continuous stream of water into the river.
Yuyu furrowed his brow, sensing a faint dark mist emerging from the depths of the pipe, swirling around his body.
He soon realized it was not an illusion.
The pitch-black mist surged forth from the depths of the pipe, gradually forming a human figure before him.
Yuyu narrowed his eyes.
It was an unfamiliar man dressed in black, wearing a black visor reminiscent of an agent.
A single glance was enough for Yuyu to recognize this person, but he couldn't help but be taken aback.
is this... Mr. T?
The final boss from the ending of Yu-Gi-Oh GX, the mass-produced subordinates under Darkness?
In the concluding chapter of Yu-Gi-Oh GX, a significant influx of darkness engulfs the world, awakening the ultimate BOSS known as Darkness, also knows as Nightshroud. This BOSS aims to eradicate all human existence, and banish them all to the world of darkness.
The Mr. T appearing before Yuyu now represents the chief minion under the antagonist, also known as Trueman. Mr. T is somewhat akin to Smith from The Matrix—unreal, and countless copies emerge after defeating one, serving as expendable cannon fodder. Truly a cockroach.
According to Darkness's claims in the anime, it states that it is a part of the world's rules, awakened only by the darkness within the human heart within the GX story. In other words, it has always existed in this world from the very beginning to the end.
In that case, it's not surprising that it awakened earlier and leaked a small fraction of its darkness.
At this moment, Mr. T, serving under Darkness, also takes lands his eyes to Yuyu. He chuckles and smiles, remarking, "Are you a duelist from the human world? Intriguing. I have been dormant for so long, unaware of how far humanity has progressed."
As he speaks, his eyes beneath the black visor abruptly sharpen, and darkness surges forth, causing a pitch-black mist to erupt like a tempest, forming a formidable force...
However, Yuyu, confronted with this extraordinary power, harbors no fear in his heart... and even desires to engage in a duel.
As anticipated, Mr. T swiftly raises his arm, and amidst a gust of wind, a black mist appears, transforminginto a black duel disk attached to his arm.
He twitches the corner of his mouth, offering a smile. "Let's have a duel."
Note: Wrote lot of this in the bus, some even while standing, so don't blame me if the quality is kinda bad.
