Chapter 118 Prana? NT!
When Hayato left the underground temple where the [Millennium Artifact] and Atum's Gate to the Underworld were buried, he saw Xia Di's figure before it completely collapsed.
However, what was Xia Di doing when he appeared? Because Hayato left in a hurry, he couldn't see the end, but from the bottom of his heart, he didn't think that this guy who counted countless people and was nicknamed "Millennium Director" would simply If he simply died, even Lan Shen would say that Xia Di was dead.
As a result, the old Bideng was not dead after all, and appeared in front of him.
Holding the re-polymerized [Quantum Cube] in his hand, Xia Di slowly opened his eyes, looked around and then looked at Hayato. With the end of the duel, the dimensional field duel that Lan Shen had launched before was fading away, but some of its characteristics still remained, allowing Xia Di to tell that a duel had just occurred here.
"Did Diwa come to you for a duel, Hayato Kobayashi? No wonder he lost so easily." Xia Di said calmly without wearing the white headscarf of the past, revealing a bald head with the ancient Egyptian priest's inscriptions. , "You seem to want [Quantum Cube]?"
"Don't ask such obvious questions. By the way, is 'Diva' the real name of 'Blue God'?" Looking at Xia Di standing in front of him like a normal person, Hayato was a little confused, "Where did you come from? When and where did you appear here? If you hadn't taken away my [Quantum Cube], I really wouldn't have been able to find you."
"Your [Quantum Cube]?"
"Is there any problem with killing monsters and earning gold coins? Since I defeated this guy Blue God, it's normal for his [Quantum Cube] to be mine." Hayato said confidently.
Seeing Hayato's face, even Xia Di, who had an expressionless face, was somewhat speechless. Lifting up the [Quantum Cube] in his hand, Xia Di shook his head and rejected Hayato: "It's a pity that I can't let you get what you want, Xiaolin Hayato. I can't give you the [Quantum Cube] yet. It means so much to me and Diwa. That said, they all still play an important role.”
"Is it the so-called 'dimensional ascent' and the so-called 'relief for all mankind'?" Hayato sneered, "Don't do this, it's not your turn to worry about the future of mankind, why are you doing it one by one? They are all like Dazi, thinking they are the righteous side by shouting slogans?"
"Dazi, the emperor of Atlantis? Our purpose is completely different from his." Xia Di seemed to recognize Dazi, and after hearing Hayato's words, he also explained, "When the dimensional ascent is completed, You will understand the nobleness and necessity of what we have done. Besides, you, who are also Prana, should have been our companions."
Hayato frowned: "Prana? Me?"
"The communication between living things initially relied on the touch of touching each other. This was to avoid being detected by natural enemies in dangerous situations. With evolution, language gradually replaced the touch. However, in the evolution of In the process, too many types of languages have emerged. If humans continue to evolve, the existence of language will become a resistance to evolution and will eventually be abandoned."
"So, when humans evolve again, what will replace language as the way of human communication?" After a pause, Xia Di, who asked the question, gave the answer himself, "That is Prana, 'superconsciousness', in The new beings that have emerged in this material world are higher-dimensional beings that can understand others even without using language.”
"The Dazi you mentioned just now also has the talent of Prana. It is precisely because of this that he could empathize with the pain that the people of Atlantis suffered at that time, and was finally defeated by the power of 'Oliha Gang' Driven to madness. However, after Dazi, there are only a handful of people with prana abilities born among humans whose evolution has been stagnant for thousands of years."
"But the rise of Duel Monsters is a prelude to the re-evolution of mankind. Because of the passionate souls of duelists and the stagnant evolution of mankind, people with prana abilities are born one after another all over the world."
"You are also a person with prana talents, Hayato Kobayashi!"
After hearing Xia Di's words, Hayato was silent for a moment before speaking again: "Let me confirm first, what abilities does the Prana you mentioned have?"
Although he didn’t know why Hayato asked this, Xia Di still answered all questions: “As far as I know, Prana can sense the thoughts in other people’s hearts and even perform spiritual exercises without using the senses. Communication; the cognition of things tends to be perceptual, and they can often know their essence quickly; the ability to perceive space is also stronger than ordinary people, and they can instinctively choose the right choice to avoid danger."
"In fact, being able to retain the soul even after death, even if the power of the [Millennium Artifact] is used in the process, is also a manifestation of Prana's talent."
"I am like this, and so is Pharaoh Atum who has returned to the underworld."
However, listening to Xia Di's words, Hayato couldn't help but complain: "That's Prana? That's obviously YPE!"
Xia Di frowned and explained again: "It's okay if you want to call Prana that way, because Prana is indeed born from the old humanity, but a completely different new humanity. With the talent of Prana, you should You can also understand that there is nothing in my words that deceives you, and you should have used this talent countless times in past duels."
“Whether it’s preempting the other party from saying what they’re about to say, reading the cards at the top of the deck in advance, or—”
"Those things don't matter. Who cares about things like Prana and New Humanity? What's important to me is to get my [Quantum Cube] back from you." He interrupted impatiently. After hearing Xia Di's words, Hayato stretched one hand forward and opened his palm towards Xia Di, while he held several cards in the other hand behind his back.
""Xia Di looked at Hayato, and after a moment of silence, he shook his head, "Even after saying so much, you still don't understand?"
"No, I completely understand what you mean. Do you think that as the pioneers of human evolution, New Humans or Prana are responsible for leading humans to continue to evolve to higher dimensions?" Hayato looked at Xia Di He said, "But there are some things that are understandable but not acceptable."
Xia Di nodded, not sure if he understood what Hayato meant. But just as he was about to speak, he suddenly noticed a long shadow appearing under his feet. From the shadow, a shadow suddenly appeared. A roaring black and purple beast, wrapped in silk threads all over its body, rushed towards him!
"Bring me the [Quantum Cube], [Shadowmon]!" Quietly releasing the card spirit, Hayato attracted Xia Di's attention while talking, while letting them get closer to Xia Di and waiting for an opportunity. At this moment, [Shadowmon] ]'s raid was the charge that Hayato took action on.
Although he did not intend to kill Xia Di, he just wanted to suppress him first so that he could take back the [Quantum Cube], but the action of [Shadowmon] ended in failure in Hayato's unexpected eyes. It was obvious that the attack was at a distance where Xia Di had no time to react, but [Shadow Beast] missed the target.
It's not that Xia Di escaped or made other actions. Xia Di has been standing still since the [Shadow Beast] appeared, but [Shadow Beast] went straight through Xia Di. Di's entire body fell to the ground behind him, as if Xia Di in front of him was just a phantom! ?
The threads that flew out of the shadows after [Shadow Beast] were controlled by [Shadow-Midrash] and tried to wrap around the [Quantum Cube] in Shadi's hand, but it clearly seemed to exist there, but Those threads also passed through the [Quantum Cube] and were unable to trigger it, which was exactly the same as the situation with Xia Di.
"Diva did not lie to you, Hayato Kobayashi." Looking at Hayato's actions, Xia Di was not angry, but said calmly, "I am dead, not just physically dead more than ten years ago. , when the Pharaoh returned to the underworld, the power of the [Millennium Key] and the [Millennium Scale] that had maintained my existence as weak as a candle in the wind for a long time also completely disappeared and fell into sleep, and my soul was almost completely dead."
"What appears in front of you is not so much the traces of the human being named 'Shadi Xin' left in the world, but rather a small protective measure left in the [Quantum Cube]."
Xia Di glanced past Hayato and looked behind him, which was the place where Blue God had disappeared due to the failure of the duel. "Diva is the most emotional one among the children I adopted with Prana talent. When I entrusted the [Quantum Cube] to him, I had anticipated that one day he might do something impulsive because of that emotion. I am his insurance when he does that kind of thing."
"Because you intercepted part of the power of the [Millennium Artifact] to prevent the dimensional ascent, the [Quantum Cube] cannot exert its full power, but it is also thanks to this that the loser in the duel in the dimensional field that Diwa launched will have to bear the price It has not reached the point of no return, and as a protective measure, I can save his life in time to prevent him from falling into a lower dimension."
"In other words, he's not dead yet? Whatever, if he does it again, it will only be my victory." Hayato didn't care and looked at Xia Di, "But how many more times can you save him?"
"This time is the last one, Kobayashi Hayato. This is the only insurance method I have left in the [Quantum Cube]." Looking at Hayato, Xia Di said calmly, "So, I will not take Diwa with me. When I return to you, I will also send the [Quantum Cube] away to prevent it from falling into your hands."
After saying that, Xia Di turned around and left without hesitation, completely ignoring the [Shadow Shadow Beast] behind him blocking the way, and went straight through it.
"Hmph! Want to escape?"
Although [Shadowmon] and their previous actions failed and Xia Di was completely untouchable like a ghost, how could Hayato be willing to have the [Quantum Cube] taken away by Xia Di just before he saw it? He also chased after him.
But as soon as he left the corner of the alley, a guy with a mobile phone in his hand, filming something, and not looking at the road, bumped into Hayato: "What? This is not a candy, this is a compressed towel, which changes in size when exposed to water." ——Hey young!”
Hayato was not knocked down by the guy in front of him who was wider than he was tall. He just stopped for a moment, but the person who bumped into Hayato fell directly to the ground. It seemed that he was hit hard, and his mobile phone also fell on the road. It broke directly on the side.
"Uh ah ah, my phone!" The guy with the double chin who hit Hayato knelt down next to his broken phone, "I just bought the phone with a loan for the live broadcast!"
Hayato didn't pay attention to that guy, but looked around, but completely lost sight of Xia Di. He obviously walked out of the alley only a few seconds later than the guy, but he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
What's even more annoying is that Hayato heard the voice of Xia Di who had disappeared: "Instead of continuing to chase me, why not go and see your friend, Kobayashi Hayato, go and see your friend Seto Kaiba." situation. Diwa is not alone, his companions are also acting like him."
"Kaiba?" Hayato heard this and subconsciously looked at the Kaiba Group headquarters building that could be seen even from here, "Azure God's companions want to attack him? It's too reckless. However, we have to get there. Look at it—"
"Hey! You guy, you hit me and want to run away!" The guy who just bumped into Hayato suddenly stood in front of Hayato, with an angry expression on his face, "Uncle Baekjemu, I am in a bad mood today, you are finished Even if you compensate me ten times for the loss of my mobile phone, don’t think I will let you go!”
"Young ones!"
As the guy named Baekjeki said hello, four or five guys dressed like gangsters appeared out of nowhere and surrounded Hayato. They were all wearing the uniforms of Doshino High School. , it’s just that all of them are dressed inappropriately, and they can’t compete with Atum who wears his school uniform as a cloak.
"Huh? This is our school's uniform? Why does this guy look familiar to you?" The fat man named Baijimu, who seemed to be the leader of a group of people, looked at Hayato, thought for a moment, decided to give up, and sneered, "Haha , Whatever, since my plan to become a host and make a lot of money has been ruined by you, then I can continue to do my job and shoot videos. The material of the video is you, and the theme is 'pain'!"
As he spoke, he punched Hayato in the face. The gangsters surrounding Hayato looked like they were watching the fun, and even took out their mobile phones to take a video.
However, Baijimu's fist stopped in front of Hayato, and a silk thread that he couldn't see at all hooked his hand under the control of [Kamiyei-Midrash], making him completely unable to move.
Twisting his neck, Hayato said with an unhappy look on his face: "Pain? Just right, I'm in a bad mood right now, so I'll just vent it out to you guys!"
