Vivian's mind was a little confused at this moment, but she became more "clear" instead.
"A duel is a duel." Vivian repeated the sentence again.
This is what Zhao Ye said.
Vivian would not forget.
At this time, she was also reminding Lin.
Remind all the audience, all the onlookers.
"Vivian..." Lin was a little dazed.
"Lin, please, don't bother me--" She lowered her head and spoke in a low voice, almost begging.
"..." Lin opened her mouth and after a long while, she nodded vigorously.
She would respect all of Vivian's choices.
After that, even if it cost her life, she would definitely rescue Vivian.
Maxi couldn't help but light up another cigarette and took a deep puff.
He looked at Vivian and didn't move for a moment.
"Please... go on, it's your turn." Vivian stood up with difficulty and said to him.
Continue...?
Maxi was somewhat touched.
He actually had no interest in dueling.
He was only interested in the power of the card, and he actually found a being who could provide him with power and whose "level" was far higher than his. He was willing to give his emotions, strength, faith and even lifespan as the "carrier" of the power of the card.
This was not something unacceptable to him as a thumb soldier.
only……
A duel is a duel... right?
This sentence, which has been mentioned countless times, made him a little amazed.
An ordinary person can achieve this through willpower.
Can she withstand more "power" and more "fire"?
He glanced around.
He had wanted to end the round.
but.
"Well, if you want to... the bloodthirsty dinosaur, you attack too!"
"Roar!!!"
The bloodthirsty dinosaur lowered its head, and the huge
The huge blade came across and stabbed Vivian directly.
puff--
Although there was no injury, the blade still scratched Vivian, leaving a red bloody mark on her neck.
"End of turn." Before the monster could run back to his own field, Maxi directly announced the end of his turn.
Maxi's remaining cards: 0
His duel with Vivian seemed to be the "lowest" card duel among the top four, but at this moment, no one raised their voice, held their breath and watched their duel.
The majority of people in this back alley are powerless, and many of them just want to survive.
The pain is so real.
Vivian's hair fell down, blowing in the wind.
hateful……
She felt like she couldn't lift her hands anymore.
Although she was extremely clear-headed, this state, which was like "a passing scene" or "a last flicker of light", made her realize that she might not be able to move.
Why……
Why is this happening...
I clearly wanted to complete the goal for Zhaoye and complete the final Duel Alley integration goal.
I was obviously the first person to come into contact with Duel Monsters.
I should do better, I should respond to Zhaoye's expectations.
Even if he never asks me to do anything, I should still do better, achieve greater results, and get more praise. Only in this way can I feel at ease to accept praise, and only in this way can I feel at ease living in the company...
If it was just an ordinary duel, I would definitely not do this—
But strength is also part of the duel.
Why……
Why, why don't I have [strength]?
"Uh...ah..." Vivian murmured softly, and her hand slowly raised up.
but.
As she raised her hand, invisible forces twisted wildly around her.
Her hands began to mutate visibly, blue "patterns" spread from her arms, and her white uniform gradually turned blue and black. Her beautiful golden hair gradually turned into silver and aqua blue, turning into the color of the ocean.
Her skin became extremely smooth. The tentacles of numerous marine creatures danced behind her, as if they were part of her body, dancing to her will. Her voice began to become clear and beautiful, like the legendary siren, attracting people to come closer and listen.
Her body began to descend—or "sink."
Scales slowly replaced her clothes, and seawater continued to flow from her wounds.
She seemed to be turning into a mermaid flying in the air.
monster.
mutation.
Or--
distortion!
Everyone saw this scene.
The three members of the Seventh Association immediately raised their swords in alertness.
Vivian's transformation has not stopped yet.
If she were just an ordinary person, without any power, she would have absolutely no chance to fight in this situation. Her spirit would be burned by the flames and she would finally fall into a coma.
but--
In this world, there is an opportunity, an opportunity called [Distortion].
If it is distorted, then she will have the possibility to continue fighting.
At this very moment.
A figure suddenly flashed by and picked up Vivian, who was constantly "twisting" and "trembling", in a princess hug.
"Duelist Vivian is unconscious.
The winner is Maxi, the Thumb Soldier!
Zhaoye hugged Vivian and spoke.
However, this time, neither the duelists nor the audience were that "passionate".
They were watching silently, watching the struggle of a "mortal".
Are the majority of people watching the scene not also “mortals”? When working in the back alley, have they witnessed “mutations” more than once?
They just want to survive.
This kind of resonance from the heart makes many people speechless.
At this time, Zhao Ye completely ignored the erosion of sea water, hugged Vivian and quickly left the scene, handed the work to Eudora, Lin and Heitao, and sent Vivian to the lounge.
He said again, the words that Vivian was familiar with -
Vivian, don't torture yourself.
Chapter 102: Sorrow, Crying, and Pain
"That woman is obviously [twisted], right!?"
"Yes, it is exactly the same as the information in the record, but her mutation speed is not fast."
"I didn't expect to see the twisting process up close. Pete, have you taken notes?"
"no problem."
The three members of the Seven Associations moved quickly in the tower.
In the sky, a new advertisement was playing, for the recently promoted "Hero" series.
Although the reason why Pete stayed in the Duel Alley was that he wanted to participate in the subsequent duels, as the closer of the association, because the "distortion" that appeared from time to time in the city during this period affected the circulation of most cities, almost all associations started to
Started to investigate what happened.
Even those idle guys like the Fifth Association have recently begun to assist other associations in investigating matters related to distortion.
As members of the seven associations of the Urban Intelligence Center, even during "non-working" hours, if they see a real example, they will be tempted to observe it up close.
"Do you remember the actual explanation process of the distortion?" Pete asked his female colleague.
"Yes." The female closer nodded, "According to the information obtained from Ms. Moses, there are four explanations for the phenomenon of distortion.
First, reason; second, explanation; third, understanding; fourth, identification. "
"I see--"
Pete nodded, and the captain also murmured "hmm" softly, then brought two colleagues to the lounge of the Link Company.
The sea water slowly seeped out along the wall, soaking the corridor.
“Is it still flowing?”
"According to previous observations, [distortion] cannot be understood using scientific knowledge and phenomena. Once distortion occurs, any strange phenomenon is possible.
Therefore, such a thing as infinite seawater should be possible."
"seawater……"
“Is it really seawater?”
The three association closers communicated quickly.
At this moment, Pete was not as crazy as he was during the duel. He was extremely calm, analyzing the current situation: "If we don't identify it, we can't confirm what this ingredient is."
"Makes sense."
The female closer took out a long document, stretched it up and down, and displayed it in front of her: "First, we need to investigate the cause...
Why did she suddenly twist? Is it related to the card? "
"No, after our investigation, we have denied any connection between the card and the distortion, so this should not be the reason." The captain shook his head.
They have not yet discovered the root cause of the distortion, but at least it definitely has nothing to do with the cards.
Cards are just one of countless factors that can influence people's minds.
"Then, we should deduce it from the experience related to this woman."
Pete nodded.
"Based on the records, the distortion is likely related to personal experience."
"In O Nest, there is a famous group distortion incident called the Balloon People. The heads of these people will swell like balloons and eventually explode, which is enough to turn an area with a radius of more than ten meters into a pool of blood."
"Most of them are working in the service industry. Customer service staff will record customers' dissatisfaction and then pass the records to the company.
However, during this process, the customer service staff was only responsible for recording the situation, and they themselves did not know how to deal with it. No matter how much we complained to them, they could not change the situation, but the customers would still complain, and even make personal attacks and curses.
