Chapter 22 Preparation before the game!

The setting sun slowly disappeared on the horizon. This chicken-eating game with 40 participants finally came to an end at this moment. The contestants who came to the duel castle were only limited to 5 people.

Namely: Li Youfeng, Muto Yugi, Within the Castle, Peacock Dance, Thief Keith.

On the dining room table in the living room, a delicious and sumptuous dinner was placed in front of everyone. Li Youfeng looked around and found that except for the thief Keith who was sitting alone in a corner, all the contestants present were his own.

What Li Youfeng didn't expect was that, unlike the plot in the original work, Kaiba Keihei, who was supposed to be imprisoned in the castle dungeon, also appeared at the dinner table, and judging from his appearance, this kid It seems like I'm having a pretty good time.

"Wow, it's delicious. This is real food!"

"It's been two days, I've finally had a decent meal!"

"Jounouchi, Honda, you two, please pay attention to your image, okay? It's like being reincarnated as a starving ghost!"

Looking at Jonouchi and Honda who were feasting, Li Youfeng couldn't help but laugh. He slowly cut the steak in front of him and couldn't help but start to recall the Chinese delicacies in his previous life.

After all, most of the food here is mainly Western food. It's not that the food is not good, but compared with Chinese food, Li Youfeng always feels that it is still a little less interesting.

Like the pleasant-smelling Mapo Tofu, the delicious and crispy sugar-crusted pork tenderloin, and the sweet and sour tomato scrambled eggs, these were all things he loved in his previous life, but unfortunately, they are definitely not so easy to eat here.

While everyone was dining, Seto Kaiba came to the restaurant accompanied by a bodyguard in black. Seeing Kaiba appearing here safe and sound, Yugi and others couldn't help but look surprised.

“To save time, I’ll keep the story short!”

After looking around at everyone, Seto Kaiba said in a arrogant tone: "Duelists who come to the Duel Castle, what you will face next are the new duel rules that I have just revised and perfected. I have arranged for people to put you in your respective lounges regarding the specific matters and procedures that need to be paid attention to."

"In order to avoid the discomfort caused by the sudden change of duel rules, that bastard Pegasus will also provide you with a large number of cards for free to adjust the deck. Therefore, the official duel time will be changed to 3 o'clock in the afternoon tomorrow. I hope everyone here will handle it seriously."

"Now, open the Millennium Eye in front of your dining table, and I will arrange the order of the duel! By the way, I want to say one more thing, my number is B, and the unlucky guy who drew A, I advise you to give up as soon as possible. , so as not to humiliate yourself in the duel field tomorrow!"

"Kaiba, you bastard, who do you want to give up? Do you think you will win?" As soon as Kaiba's voice finished, Jonouchi jumped up from his chair with his own note and an angry look on his face.

"Oh~, it turns out you drew the A!" Seeing the big A on the note in Jonouchi's hand, Seto Kaiba couldn't help but let out a burst of contemptuous laughter, "Humph, I didn't expect that my opponent would be you. This piece of trash is really a waste of my time! From this point of view, tomorrow’s first game is destined to be an extremely boring battle!”

"How dare you look down on me, Kaiba, I'm going to duel with you now!"

"Jounouchi, calm down, you don't know the new rules of duel now, so rashly launching a challenge would be like giving away your life!"

"I can't bear it anymore, let go of my Honda, I'm going to fight this bastard now!"

"Hmph, after all, I'm just a cannon fodder duelist who gives away people's lives! I still have to adjust my deck, and I have no interest in arranging the next game. Just send dinner to my room."

"Nissan! Wait for me!"

After saying this to the bodyguard beside him, Seto Kaiba turned around and walked out of the door of the restaurant. Keipei Kaiba who ran to the door followed him and bowed apologetically to Li Youfeng and others. He turned around and chased after him.

"This arrogant and arrogant man!" He punched Seto Kaiba hard on the back. Jonouchi picked up the bread on the table and started biting it with an angry expression. It looked like he was biting Kaiba. generally.

"You Feng, what's the letter you drew?" Seeing Li Youfeng also opening his own note, Peacock Wu, who was sitting next to him, quickly put his head over.

"I drew D, the second duel."

"Great!" She patted her proud chest very happily, and Peacock Dance's face was full of relief. "The letter I drew is E. Fortunately, I didn't meet you, otherwise I would have started I’m considering giving up.”

Seeing Peacock Wu's expression, Li Youfeng asked with some shame: "It's not that serious, am I that scary?"

"I don't know if it's scary to fight you in a duel, but I don't want to lose the duel and be depressed by you at the same time, so it's better for you to stay away from me!"

Knowing that her opponent was not Li Youfeng, Peacock Wu's attitude immediately changed. She waved her hand at Li Youfeng as if to ward off flies.

"Eh? Am I that much?"

"Yes!" Peacock Dance nodded firmly and deeply, "And it's quite excessive!"

"Haha, Miss Wu, your opponent tomorrow is me!" Muto Yugi, who was sitting across the dining table, thoughtfully showed his note, with the letter F on it.

"Wow, it's a game! Hehe, great, maybe I still have a chance to enter the top three!"

Seeing Peacock Wu looking so happy, Li Youfeng also smiled helplessly. After all, even he himself did not dare to say that he could definitely win against this destiny's son, let alone Peacock Wu, but it is always bad to dampen the enthusiasm of others. , so he could only choose to remain silent.

Seeing everyone here showing their notes, the bodyguard in black who followed Seto Kaiba also turned on the electronic screen.

"Now that everyone knows their respective letters, tomorrow's competition process is arranged as follows. The first game is Seto Kaiba VS Jonouchi, the second game is Thief Keith VS Li Youfeng, and the third game is Peacock Mai VS Muto Yugi."

"As Mr. Kaiba said before, we have placed the new game rules in your lounge. All duelists must take it seriously, otherwise we will not be responsible if anything goes wrong."

"Okay, that's all I have to say, please enjoy your dinner, and I wish you all a wonderful night."

"Ah, I'm full too. Since there are new rules for duels, I have to go back and quickly adjust my deck."

After saying this, the bodyguard in black walked out, and with him was Li Youfeng's opponent tomorrow, the thief Keith.

Keenly aware of the angry look the thief Keith gave him when he left, Li Youfeng kept sneering in his heart.

Anyone who has read the original work knows that the thief Keith not only stole Jonouchi's entry card on the eve of the duel, but also cheated during the duel. His behavior was extremely bad.

It’s just that this time Thief Keith’s opponent became himself. He went out so early because he definitely wanted to attack him. Although there is no entry card in this competition, at this time, the deck that everyone is used to , but they are all stored in their respective guest rooms.

"Hmph, thief Keith? Unfortunately, my cards are all stored in that mysterious space. There is only a pair of dishes and chopsticks and a few changes of clothes in the backpack in the guest room. This time, you are destined to leave empty-handed. I'm back."

Ignoring the thief Keith, Li Youfeng turned around and started joking with everyone again, especially Jonouchi, who even told the story of how he defeated the Ghost Bone Tomb and how he teamed up with the game to defeat the Maze Brothers, but He changed the protagonist to himself, and under Honda and Kyoko's constant troubles, everyone burst into bursts of laughter.

While everyone was eating and laughing, a figure secretly came to the door of Li Youfeng's guest room. Just as Li Youfeng guessed, the man who was unlocking the door was the thief Keith who left early.

With his superb lock-picking skills, the thief Keith pried open the guest room door with only two thin wires. After entering the guest room, the thief Keith saw Li Youfeng's backpack on the bed at a glance.

"Hey, kid, now that you have met me, I can only blame you for your bad luck. I heard that you also have a Blue Eyes White Dragon in your deck. Even if you take this card out, you can sell it for a lot of money. .”

When he thought that Li Youfeng's deck also included the Bone King with 10,000 attack points, Thief Keith's heart became even more intense. However, what made him depressed was that he searched the entire backpack and found nothing. The existence of a card.

"How could this happen? Does it mean that this kid has always carried his deck with him? This is not right. I heard that he used two decks of different types in succession. How could he possibly fit it on his body? "

The thief Keith, who looked disbelieving in evil, rummaged through the bed and cupboards one after another, even under the bed. The thief Keith, who had always found nothing, finally broke through at this time.

"Asshole, this stinky brat, you should be cautious, but that's all! Hmph!"

Glancing at the new game rule manual placed on the desk, a bold idea came to the mind of Thief Keith again.

The thief Keith, who thought he could disgust Li Youfeng, never expected that his every move had been clearly seen by a man hiding in the dark. When he saw the thief Keith walk out of Li Youfeng's guest room without finding anything, this man After a trace of disappointment flashed across his face, he turned around and returned to the darkness.

It was night, and Li Youfeng, who had eaten and drank enough, said goodbye to everyone and returned to his guest room. After carefully checking his backpack, Li Youfeng immediately found signs of being tampered with, and thought of the character of the thief Keith. , the corners of Li Youfeng's mouth also curved slightly.

"Hmph, I was thinking about letting it go, but since you dare to look through my things, don't blame me for giving you the whole life!"

Sitting in front of his desk, Li Youfeng opened the space deck layout. After carefully integrating the existing decks, Li Youfeng immediately decided to let the thief Keith also taste the power of the specialized version of the Minotaur Empire!

"That guy Kaiba, I didn't expect to be so vindictive. He didn't even give me the duel game manual. He's really petty!"

"Well, anyway, even if he gave it to me, it would be of little use. The current rules of the game are still too rough. Forget it, don't think about it anymore, go to sleep!"

Pulling out two cards from the page space, Li Youfeng immediately showed a wretched look like a pig brother.

"Hey, who should I hold in my arms to sleep with tonight? Atla, the insect bewilderment, or Miss Vampire~, forget it, I can sleep with both of them together! Turn off the lights!"

The next morning.

After a good sleep, Li Youfeng didn't get up from the bed until around 10 o'clock. After washing up, he originally wanted to chat with Muto Yugi, but what he didn't expect was that besides Honda, Kyoko and Tairyo were in the castle. Apart from hanging out, everyone else was actually adjusting their decks in their guest rooms, and even lunch was delivered to the room by someone.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Li Youfeng, who had taken a nap after dinner, regained his energy and walked out of the guest room.

He was wearing a black casual windbreaker, which he often wore when he participated in the World Series in his previous life.

When he traveled back in time, this piece of clothing was already in tatters. Li Youfeng had no choice but to throw it into the trash can after coming to work in Izayoi Kaoru's game store.

However, what Li Youfeng didn't expect was that the backpack Izayoi Kaoru prepared for him actually contained an identical piece of clothing. It must have been because he noticed his reluctance that Izayoi Kaoru would secretly I picked this dress out of the trash and ordered another one for myself in the same style.

"What a silly girl."

Thinking of the boss who looked carefree on the outside but was delicate and sensitive at heart, Li Youfeng couldn't help but have a smile on his face.

"Huh? You Fengjun, you haven't gone to the duel venue yet?"

Just when Li Youfeng was thinking about the embarrassing incident of being beaten for blackmailing three children when he had just traveled back in time, the door opposite him suddenly opened, and the boy who appeared in front of Li Youfeng was Muto Yugi who lived opposite him.

"Yes, I took a nap and just woke up. Let's go there together now."

"Ah, I'm so envious that you can still sleep so well."

Seeing that Muto Yugi seemed to have dark circles under his eyes, Li Youfeng walked beside him and asked with some confusion: "What's wrong, Yugi? Are you having a nightmare?"

Li Youfeng's words made Muto Yugi stop in place, and he was silent for a few seconds. Then Xiaobiao said with some trepidation: "Last night I dreamed about grandpa. In a sea of ​​fire, the card that sealed grandpa's soul was posted. On top of one of the crosses!”

"Grandpa also kept warning me that Pegasus has extremely powerful dark power, so I must be more careful! At the same time, he also believed that I would be able to rescue those innocent souls who were also imprisoned by Pegasus, but ~With what I am now, can I really defeat Pegasus and save everyone?"
