This Hextech Duel Master is a pro at getting targets.

Katsuya Jonouchi was taken aback: "A chick? Ah! That's the really weak card!"

【chicken】

【Samsung】

[Earth Attribute/Bird Beast Race]

Attack/Defense: 900/800

The original artwork depicts a chubby chicken lounging like Ge You.

Yugi Muto asked, "So how can we obtain this card?"

The old man revealed a mysterious smile once again:

"To cross the desert, you need a card called 'Chick'."

Katsuya Jonouchi broke out in a sweat: "I just said that..."

Yugi Muto realized what was happening.

This is just an NPC; it doesn't have an intelligent language system, so the things it says after being triggered are basically the same.

The old man mechanically repeated:

"To cross the desert, you need a card called 'Chick'."

Katsuya Jonouchi cried out in despair, "Couldn't you give me some other clues?!"

You Shuo chuckled and patted Katsuya Jonouchi on the shoulder, saying, "Never mind, he's just a character in the game, he won't say anything else."

At this moment, Kaiba Keiping became somewhat anxious:

"Without the chick card, we can't leave this town."

"In short, the most important thing is to find the 'chick' first!"

"Only by finding the chick can we find the older brother!"

chicken……

You Shuo remembered that this monster was supposed to be the prize for winning the duel tournament in the game.

However, at this point in the story, many plot points have changed. According to the original story, Peacock Dance should have been the champion of that tournament, but now, Peacock Dance is a teammate of the adventurers...

Therefore, You Shuo was unsure whether the chick was still the champion's reward, nor did he know what kind of opponents he would encounter in that competition.

The group split up again to search for clues.

However, this time it was much more difficult than the last time.

Katsuya Jonouchi sat by the fountain and said helplessly, "It's no use, I can't find it anywhere..."

Kaiba Keihei said in a disappointed tone, "I've looked in every shop in town."

"Could it be a game bug?" Jonouchi Katsuya suddenly thought.

"Hmm... Anyway, let's keep looking!" Yugi Muto's attitude remained as positive as ever.

He stood up from beside the fountain and stretched, but just then, something seemed to catch his attention.

Yugi Muto shouted, "Ah! I found it! It was here all along!"

The group rushed over.

On a wooden board was a notice for a championship match, which read:

"Are you willing to risk your life to challenge for the championship?"

"The prize now is a 'chick' card."

You Shuo was taken aback.

He went out of his way to look for the competition, but couldn't find it at all.

Could it be that……

Do I need to complete some prerequisite tasks before I can trigger the clue to start the competition?

Never mind, none of that matters.

With time running out, everyone rushed to the registration area in order to save Seto Kaiba.

Inside the old, sand-brick house, countless flies swarmed about.

A giant toad monster slumped in a chair and said in a shrill voice:

"What? You want to challenge the champion? Cuckoo~"

"Hey hey! What a brave adventurer! Croak~"

"I'm really worried because the champion is too strong, and very few people dare to challenge him! Glug~"

As he spoke, the toad monster suddenly stretched out its tongue and swallowed a fly into its mouth.

"Alright! It's decided! Let's start the competition right away! Croak~"

"Now, please put on your mask and cloak, quack~"

The toad monster stood up and brought out a pig's head mask and a drab gray cloak.

Yugi Muto took the item and asked, "By the way, is this competition really that dangerous?"

The toad monster turned and left, laughing as it answered:

"It's nothing, as long as one of them reaches zero health, that's fine, quack~"

Everyone was startled.

"Health points reduced to zero??"

"If your health reaches zero in this game, it means you'll never get out!" Kaiba Keihei said through gritted teeth.

At this moment, Katsuya Jonouchi volunteered: "It seems we don't know if this battle is a real-time battle or a card duel..."

"But it's okay! I'll take care of this competition!"

"Having fought my way through the Duel Kingdom Tournament, my strength is much greater than before!!"

"Your cards are all stronger than mine. If it's really a real-time battle, it's no big deal for me to use a few cards."

"Don't worry!! I'm sure I'll win this duel!!"

But You Shuo took the mask and cloak before he could, and said with a faint smile:

"Leave it to me."

“Jonnouchi, I have faith in your skills, but you used up the Heavenly Treasure Card and some other cards earlier, which will put you at a disadvantage in the battle.”

"My card is in pretty good condition."

"I'll do it."

Chapter 106 Sold Just Like That?

[Yu Shuo, LP: 2000]

【Dinosaur Master, LP: 2000】

Inside the village's arena, You Shuo and his opponent engaged in a regular duel.

This battle uses conventional combat methods, rather than the real-time combat unique to RPG games.

The crowd cheering for You Shuo on the sidelines couldn't help but start discussing it.

"Huh? Wait a minute..."

"That dinosaur master looks familiar!"

"Yeah, yeah, it looks exactly like the dinosaur Ryuzaki."

Has Ryuzaki, the dinosaur, stooped so low as to sell his likeness to video games?

"Um... selling his portrait shouldn't be considered a form of destitution for him, right?"

None of them thought You Shuo would lose, so they were quite relaxed.

"Hmph! I'll go first! Draw a card!" The Dinosaur Master sneered and pulled a card from the top of his deck with a "whoosh".

"Hehe, as expected of this master's treasure! I drew it right away!"

"Since it's just dealing with some nobody, there's no need to hold back!"

"Go! Two-Headed Dinosaur King! Attack signal!"

"My turn is over, it's your turn!"

"Roar--"

The moment the card was hit, a deafening roar resounded throughout the entire battlefield!

A flash of light appeared, and a giant, dark purple dinosaur flapped its wings and flew out of the card!

Its enormous body, standing a full four meters tall, and its two constantly roaring dragon heads were particularly terrifying, while its dark yellow claws gleamed with a sharp luster under the sunlight.

The Two-Headed Dinosaur King

【Four stars】

[Earth Attribute/Dinosaur Race]

Attack/Defense: 1600/1200

"My turn, draw a card." You Shuo glanced at his hand and took one out. "Set a monster face down, end my turn."

Upon seeing You Shuo's mysterious face card, the Dinosaur Master's expression suddenly became very serious.

"A covering monster? Could it be a man-eating worm?"

"Tsk... Damn it!"

"If it really is a man-eating worm, then my two-headed dinosaur king is doomed..."

The Dinosaur Master looked very displeased.

"I'll have to draw cards for now..."

"Shh!"

As a card was added to his hand, the Dinosaur Master immediately revealed a smug smile:

"Hahaha! What a coincidence!"

"Although I don't know what kind of monster you're covering, even if it's a man-eating worm, I'm not afraid at all!"

"Because the card I drew this round is -- an offering to the dead!"

"Activate the Spell Card! Offering to the Dead! Discard one card from your hand! Destroy your monster!"

The Dinosaur Master suddenly swung the card in his hand, and at the same time, countless bandages flew out from the dark corners and wrapped around You Shuo's monster!

In the blink of an eye, the monster was bound like a mummy, and with a shattering explosion, You Shuo's monster was destroyed.

"Bam—"

Everyone looked up and gazed at You Shuo's arena, eager to know what kind of monster he had just placed.

Is it a man-eating insect? Or a metamorphic jar?

But when he saw the card in person, the Dinosaur Master's expression turned strange.

That was just a mushroom-shaped image?

Mushroom Man

[Two stars]

[Earth Attribute/Plant Tribe]

Attack/Defense: 800/600

"Damn it..." Master Dinosaur shouted angrily, "That piece of trash has absolutely no ability to reverse! You're lying to me!"

You Shuo smiled.

This monster dropped when we were fighting other monsters.

However, even though you managed to trick your opponent into revealing their card, you still have to bear the damage according to the Duel Kingdom rules.
