"It's so troublesome. Why are Junko Makurada and Momoe Hamaguchi ignoring me?"
A week has passed in the second semester, but the progress of Jock's investigation of Pacifica has been slow to advance.
According to his original plan, after school started, he found Junko Makurata and Momoe Hamaguchi, who had previously obtained the power of "Fire King" or "King of the Sea", and temporarily borrowed "Roc Phoenix" or "Earthshaking Abyss King". Get information from the ancient elves.
However, for some reason, the two female students refused to see him no matter what.
In this regard, Suliang said - deserved it.jpg
After Junko Mashida handed the letter and chocolates to Jock, she waited for him all day on Christmas Eve last year!
It seems that it will take some time before they can borrow the card of the host elf, and they have to wait until they forget about this.
So Jock had nothing to do again. Every day he was either looking through Wang Jiang's spell book or wandering around the island, and went to the house for treatment based on the seven incredible nominations of Duel Academy compiled by the students.
Playing cards, fishing, racing... Although there are no birds to compete with, the daily life of competing with the headhunters who take notice of the news is quite interesting.
However, unlike this owner who was so idle that his scalp went numb, Wang Jiang became increasingly busy.
The trip during the winter vacation allowed him to acquire a large amount of consumables for making magic items, and he created items every night while the two of them were asleep, preparing in advance for their future trip to the Elf World.
Not only that, during the trip to Atlantis, when Jock dueled with Ogdo Abyss, the jet-black feather that dropped as a symbol when the latter opened the trap card "Serpent Offering" was also picked up by him. Come back and use it as material.
That was the material dropped by the highest-level elves, and the strange objects they produced were valuable in both the human world and the elven world. This also made Jock regret that he had not knocked out a few more before.
Unknowingly, Jock's intangible assets became sufficient...but it was a pity that they could not be exchanged for gold.
That would be too wasteful.
That afternoon, after his roommate Shiyun Yuan Suliang came back, he once again asked him about an incident that was nominated as one of the "Seven Unbelievables".
…
"Ah? Come again? No one can really stop those students from committing suicide?"
Jock lay on the bed and gave up thinking.
"There really isn't anything else to do in life on an isolated island except duels."
Suliang habitually stuffed a lollipop into his mouth, thoughtfully.
He recalled what Jock said when he first entered school - "This kind of isolated island is very similar to the Blizzard Villa model that often appears in mystery novels such as "No One Survived". There is 100% chance that some messy incident will occur."
At first, these words could be regarded as the words of a person who is addicted to mystery novels, but now, Su Liang feels more and more that the location of Duel Academy is not good.
This crow's mouth!
It is said that the location of this branch is the closest to civilization among the four branches. The northern branch is even established in the Arctic Circle, which is no longer an area where ordinary people can live normally.
To put it bluntly, there is something wrong with the minds of the senior leaders of Duel Academy.
Fortunately, this incident does not seem too "supernatural".
Recently, many Obelisks have been attacked at night and had their rare cards taken away.
According to the common ground in the intelligence provided by witnesses, the person who attacked them was a tall, muscular, unknown entity dressed like a spider, known as the "Giant Duelist of the Night."
You can probably guess it from the name. This person's attack method is to initiate a duel at night when the students in the blue school building are alone, and then steal the opponent's rare card after victory.
Do the lone Blue School students have to accept a duel and not run away?
And the attacker is so tall, is it necessary to grab the card after the duel?
Jock realized that this might not just be a matter of the attacker and the attacked, nor might there be any supernatural elements involved.
According to the school rules of Duel Academy, card gambling duels are strictly prohibited. If discovered, in the most serious cases, you can be expelled from school...
"According to my judgment, this urban legend may not be considered an incident."
After analysis, Qiao Ke concluded with certainty: "There is a high probability that it is just an internal conflict among the students."
Unknowingly, Su Liang had finished chewing the lollipop. He stretched his waist and asked: "I came to the conclusion so quickly. I am worthy of being the exorcist duelist in La Huang's dormitory. So how can I see this? "
"This is just a simple reasoning, Toffee. There are three reasons for my judgment."
Jock held out three fingers, intending to explain the reasons for his judgment one by one.
But Su Liang waved his hands repeatedly: "Stop, stop, stop, shouldn't it be Watson? Why am I a toffee?"
"What do you think?"
"Okay, so what's going on?"
"First, most students' rare cards are not worth much, and Obelisk Blue students are generally 'outstanding'. Even if you are short of money as much as I am, this is still not a good choice."
"Second, the students who were robbed of the rare cards did not make any public announcements or provide feedback, and the information they gave only pointed to clothing. This shows that the victims collectively believed that this was the right decision."
"Third, card gambling duels are strictly prohibited by school rules and will be severely punished if found. When will the victim take sides with the perpetrator? Of course it is because he wants to avoid further harm to himself."
"To put it simply, I think this is very likely to be the case this time."
"Some students in Obelisk Blue had a card gambling duel in private. Someone in the college discovered this and invited them out to gamble on cards at night. As a result, all the students in the Blue dormitory lost."
"The reason why we didn't make any announcement or report is because if we do this, the other party may be in danger of losing the network, and their own card gambling will be revealed, which will affect their studies."
After listening to Qiao Ke's analysis, Su Liang thought for a moment and found that it did make sense.
"Well, that's no fun."
After saying that, Su Liang showed a mysterious expression and leaned sideways in the direction of Jock: "Actually, I have another rumor here - the masked man who called himself 'Dark Claw' appeared again last semester. "
"That person..."
When Jiao Ke heard this, he felt weak.
He is not very good at dealing with middle school boys.
He had investigated it last semester and found out that the man in black basically had Kamen Rider in his head, and what he did was also aimed at those who gambled on card duels.
The people he targets are all gambling addicts. Considering the school regulations, most of them will not make a big deal even if they are approached by him, let alone feedback upwards, so it basically doesn't matter if they are left alone.
He thought that after one semester, that guy had stopped.
Didn’t you graduate from the second grade of high school?
