Chapter 9 Earthquakes, Tsunamis, Volcanic Eruptions and Gamers

Unfortunately, Hayato's idea of ​​"getting all the monsters in advance and pushing them all the way" was ultimately shattered. [VtoZ]'s gunfire advanced no more than ten meters before the giant robot began to gradually dissipate.

"The cards can only be used when entering the battle phase. The monster will disappear ten seconds after leaving the battle. This setting is too stupid, just like the Kamen Rider has to use his body to run in front of the monster before he will transform."

Hayato watched helplessly as the [VtoZ] he finally summoned turned into nothingness, turned back into five VWXYZ cards, and put them back into the deck along with the [Armed Dragon LV3] in his hand.

He actually wanted to summon the [Armed Dragon Assault Cannon] just now to speed up the advance.

"If everyone could summon monsters anytime, anywhere, there would be no players in this online game!" Keppei held a card picked up from the cemetery and put it into Hayato's hand, "Hey, this is This is what you gained from defeating the monster."

Taking the card, there were several golden coins painted on the picture, and the card name was "15". It seems to be the currency used in this game, and the number is fifteen.

"If there are coins, it means there is some way to consume coins in exchange for something in this game, right?" Jonouchi rubbed his chin and thought, but he soon revealed that he was not suitable to be a wise man. fact, "With this kind of world background, shouldn't it be possible to change it to a beautiful orc maid?"

"Even if I get it, what's the use? Haven't you noticed it yet, Jonouchi?" Hayato said as he made a gesture of taking something out of his arms. Then in Jonouchi's surprised expression, Hayato's hands actually came out of the clothes, "The clothes we are wearing are basically made by the game cabin after scanning us sitting in the cabin. It’s just a sticker.”

"In other words?" Jonouchi also tried it and found that the clothes on his body seemed to be non-existent. He tried to grab it with his hands, but his grasp was empty and he wore it directly.

"In other words, you don't have to think about those 18X things." Hayato said, but suddenly stopped and fixed his gaze on the woods. Following Hayato's gaze, Yugi also found what he was looking at.

Among the trees, an elf the size of a finger was secretly observing Hayato and his group. He had four wings on his back and was wearing a small magic robe. When he noticed Hayato and Yugi looking towards him, he seemed to be frightened. The whole elf trembled and flew away to escape.

"Fairies in games often symbolize clues and treasures, right?" An excited smile appeared on Jonouchi's face, obviously immersed in the game, "Yoshi! Let's catch it!"

One person in the city took the lead and ran at the front. The other three had no choice but to let him chase them alone, so they had no choice but to follow them and get into the jungle together.

Thanks to the fact that he was in the game and could not feel physical fatigue, Jonouchi jogged along the path of the goblin's flight. After about five or six minutes, his eyes suddenly opened up. Walking out of the dense jungle, he saw that the sky outside was actually bright, completely different from the scenery in the jungle.

Hayato Yugi, Keihei and the other three quickly caught up and stopped in the castle.

"Is it so dark inside the forest because it is wrapped in mist? No, I remember seeing the starry sky." The game analyzed, "In other words, are the outside of the forest and the inside of the forest two different worlds? If there hadn't been that goblin just now If you don’t lead us, we probably won’t be able to get out at all, right?”

"Speaking of the goblin." Jonouchi looked around, "I was obviously following him, but the moment he came out of the forest, he disappeared."

"Maybe that goblin is just an NPC who leads the way." Keppei looked into the distance, "Look over there, there is a town there."

In the dense forest surrounded by mountains, there is a small town. Perhaps because he was in the game, Hayato could easily see the people moving in the town even from a long distance away.

"First of all, the zombie monsters that can be easily dealt with. After completing the novice mission, did you arrive at the novice village?" Hayato tried to activate the card to summon a few monsters to take his place, but because he was not in combat status, , although the card was drawn, it could not be summoned successfully.

"This road looks quite short. Let's continue on our way." Reluctantly putting the cards away, Hayato opened the way in front and asked Keipei, "Kipei, first tell me the information you know about this game. Well, for example, besides the battle phase, what are the situations where monsters cannot be summoned, and how to trigger the battle phase.”

"Well, except for the combat stage, there seems to be no restrictions, right? And the combat state can be activated as long as it conflicts with any target. After all, this game is regarded as an accessory of Duel Monsters. If the people who play the game cannot enjoy Duel Monsters That wouldn’t be attractive enough.”

Hayato nodded clearly and did not continue to ask anything else. He looked at the town in the distance, seeming to be thinking about something.

After walking a long way, the four of them finally arrived at this "novice village". The overall architectural style of this town is somewhat leaning towards the Egyptian style. Pedestrians on the road are wearing robes and headscarves. Some Egyptian-style jewelry and toys are also sold on the streets, as well as some strange foods. There are even some in the city. I saw someone selling snakes and lizards.

What’s even more surprising is that half of the town is surrounded by dense jungle, but on the other side of the town, half of the forest seems to be blocked by something, unable to spread forward, and is replaced by a dry and hot desert. , and from time to time there is a hot wind carrying sand and gravel.

While walking, Yugi noticed something unusual about a product sold on the street: "Hayato, Jonouchi, come and take a look at this."

"Well, what?" Jonouchi walked away from the stall of a vendor who looked like a frog and refused the medicine he was selling. Not to mention that he was not injured at all. He didn't even have a penny on him and couldn't buy it even if he wanted to.

The owner of the card-selling stall looks like a cow and has extremely thick hair: "This handsome guy, why don't you come in and pick something out? If you like it, you can take it away."

Walking to the booth where the game was, Jonouchi's eyes widened: "Oh oh oh! This is, aren't these super rare cards!"

In front of him, there were Yishui's ritual monster cards, ranging from [King of the End - Dimis], [Goddess of Destruction - Luyin] to [Legendary Explosion User], [Synthetic Werewolf], all of them It's a very powerful and rare card. Jonouchi even found the [Najima] used by Bekas. I don't know if the Kaiba Group, which secretly wrote the data of this card into the game, paid the copyright fee to Bekas. .

However, the price marked under each card is also quite "powerful". The most expensive one [Naji Demon] costs up to 1W, and even the cheapest [Skeleton Rider] costs 2,000 pieces. gold.

Among them, Hayato, the richest man, only had 15 gold coins in his hand. These cards are simply released to make people greedy.

The boss was still repeating the same words mechanically: "This handsome guy, why don't you come in and pick something out? If you like it, take it away?"

Hayato looked around, pulled out several cards from the deck in advance, held them in his hands, and walked forward with a smile on his face: "Oh, how can this be so embarrassing."

As he said that, Hayato grabbed the cloth under the cards under the unexpected looks of the three Yugis, packed up all the cards and rolled them away, and ran towards the distance, shouting: "Ni Gei" Oil on the road~~!!”
