"Wicks, are you okay?!" Several finishers rescued by him hurriedly checked Wicks' wounds.
With Wicks' performance today, it would be easy for him to be promoted to the fifth department, no, even directly becoming the elite of the fourth department. This amazed them and made them respect Wicks very much. In a very short time, they regarded Wicks as the new hope of the sixth department!
Just a few months ago, he had no idea what [Protection] meant, but I didn't expect him to be so powerful now.
"Hehe, fortunately, I'm not seriously injured, just minor injuries." Wicks chuckled.
He just consumed too much.
He pulled out a card that was emitting heat from his pocket.
【Sword of Silence】.
It was a magic card. On the card, the Silent Swordsman swung a greatsword. The sword energy was as sharp as the wind, so fierce that ordinary people could not get close to him.
He chuckled.
Are you silently protecting me?
It seems that, just like You Zhou got the Chaos Warrior's approval, Silent Swordsman, you finally got my approval as well...
What a pity, I didn’t expect it to happen at this time.
"Weeks, what should we do now?" Now, having lost all their team leaders, their section chief, and being attacked by stray dogs, they have come to regard Wicks as their backbone.
Weeks took a deep breath, coughed a few times, and then said, "The most important thing is... we can't let the [Blueprint] fall into the hands of those guys."
Several people looked at each other and nodded.
Weeks coughed and carefully pulled out a set of cards.
He just learned this...
"Wex, what is this?"
"Um... this is, uh, a Duel Monster deck." Weeks said, "Hey, ahem, Li Yi, can you help me collect it?"
Having seen Walter's outrageous behavior, he no longer trusts the "high-ranking officials" in the association.
He didn't know what the stray dogs wanted the design blueprint of the nest for, he only knew that they must not be allowed to get it.
Whatever the gang members want to do, he, as the honest organizer of the association, must never let them succeed!
This morning, he rushed back to the headquarters and discovered the special situation, so he urgently sealed the design blueprint into a card and hid it in his own deck. In this way, even if he died, as long as he didn't know what the [Duel Monster] was, he would not be able to find the [Blueprint]!
Li Yi was confused. He didn't know what Wicks had experienced in District 10. He just felt that it was a bit abnormal for Wicks to value a card of a card game so much.
But it's a city, if it's abnormal, then it's abnormal.
What’s important is that Weeks is a person worthy of their respect!
“I have a very good friend in the back alley of District 10, his name is You Zhou, and he has an extremely powerful boss named Zhao Ye… They are the people I trust the most.
I like playing card games with them very much, it is very interesting. Playing cards can easily relax myself, relaxed and happy, it is my first choice for relaxation.
Could you please send them my deck?
Just say... just say it’s my memory.”
“Eh!?” Several people who were finishing the job exclaimed, “This, this—Wex, why don’t you go in person—”
They realized the deeper meaning of Weeks' words.
Weeks took a deep breath and said, "I want to... be the last one!"
"Wex!"
"Don't worry... I'm just buying time. I won't fight them to the death." Wicks said while coughing and laughing, and took out a soft, envelope-like object from his arms.
There is a line with these words written on it.
Today’s Book: The Book of Walter…
In addition, there are some other books, among which is the book of the detective team leader that Weeks most respected.
The so-called book probably looks similar to a "card", except that this library turns people into books, while Zhaoye's invention can print people into cards. Weeks has also seen similar things and can understand it quickly.
The current chaos was all caused by Walter. He was too lazy to care about Walter.
But if there is a chance to rescue the books of other team leaders and find a way to revive them, Wicks still wants to try it.
Weeks deliberately hid the front side and only let them see the back of the invitation letter, so that they would not worry about his thoughts.
"This is the urban legend-level thing that's very popular recently... [Library]. As long as you sign your name, you can instantly go to its location. I might have to stay in there for a while, so I can only ask you for help."
Several people nodded solemnly.
Wicks rested for a while, took a deep breath, grabbed the sword, and propped himself up.
He is greedy.
He wanted to protect his companions, and he also wanted to save the [Team Leader]. This could very well prevent him from exerting his true strength, and he would eventually be damaged at any point.
But he didn't want to regret it anymore.
Now, the silent swordsman will swing his greatsword again.
Chapter 136 Cards and Duel
Inside the huge library.
The blue curator is chatting with her black attendant.
But for some reason, the black attendant seemed to be distracted.
"Roland?" Angela, the short-haired young lady, asked.
"Ah...ah, I, no, I'm fine." Roland seemed to be seriously distracted.
"Did you just remember something?"
"Ah, nothing. I mean, that guy is really amazing."
As the director and attendant of the library, the two of them were able to see the experiences of those who entered the library, and therefore, they also saw Wicks' previous experiences.
At the critical moment, Wicks protected all the people he could and escaped. He fought bloody battles and was almost exhausted in the end, which surprised Angela.
However, what Roland cared about more was the card [Sword of Silence]. This card reminded him of some of his past life experiences, which made him feel a little painful.
"As the finisher of the six departments of Association 2, his performance is much better than that of Mr. Walter. If he continues to develop normally, he might become a senior finisher of Association 2..." Roland shook his head regretfully, "I didn't expect that he would come to the library on his own initiative for such a reason."
"You said before that our behavior was quite decent," said Angela.
"Ah, that's right. Many times, people's lives are taken without their consent. Compared to those lunatics, the library is very decent.
This young cleaner named Weeks was not forced to come to the library... but he still felt uncomfortable when he saw it."
"It's really funny. You said before that this kind of behavior was nothing. When you chopped down Section Chief Walter, you looked quite calm."
"Let's put it this way." Roland sighed. "That guy is quite annoying, but this Wex seems full of hope. People like him... it's a pity anyway."
The battle with Wicks was not much more difficult for him than the previous battles.
This is naturally partly due to his own high combat effectiveness, but it is also an indisputable fact that Wicks himself is weak.
Wicks was the second person who appeared in the library and could manipulate the "power of cards", but he was too tired and had suffered too many injuries. If he were stronger, or received more reinforcements from the 2nd Association, he might be able to hold on and cause great trouble to the current library. Unfortunately, not only did he not have time to repair it, but in order to prevent being caught by the stray dog guy, he chose to enter the library directly.
At such a young age, he still possesses a pure sense of "protection" and is willing to sacrifice himself to protect others. Most importantly, he is also very talented.
In Roland's opinion, although this person is a newcomer to the Sixth Department of Association 2, his actual combat effectiveness is already higher than that of Walter, the "Section Chief".
After a while, it would not be impossible to be promoted from Section 6, or even to join the task force of Association 2 in the future.
As a result, he just collapsed in the library and turned into a book in the library, which really made him feel sick.
"Anyway, with this person's book, we should finally have hope of inviting the mysterious Zhao Ye, right?" Roland asked.
"It's a pity." Angela closed her eyes and said, "Although we have obtained a lot of information about the [Duel Monsters] card from this guest's book, it seems that the invitation letter made from his book cannot be delivered to the mysterious person we discussed before."
"Huh? Why, isn't that person interested?"
Libraries have always been like this, using invitations
They would lure some people who were interested in these books to sign the invitation letter, and then let them enter the library, choose to fight with them, and then be beaten into books, which would then be used to lure some people who were interested in these books and attract them to the library.
This is the "decency" of the library. To be honest, most of the guests have their reasons for coming, but compared to the guys who want to kill you without any explanation, it is already very "decency".
"I don't have control over the issuance of invitations." Angela shook her head. "In fact, not to mention the scientist, even the people related to him did not receive an invitation."
"Is that so?" Roland didn't quite understand.
"But...hidden in this person's book is the secret of the [L Nest Design Blueprint], which can be used to attract those stray dogs.
And…in his book, there are some things related to duel monsters.
Roland, where is your card?"
Roland touched his arms and took out a [Blank] card.
"Not yet... not yet."
After two weeks of changes, the card has completely changed. It seems to be dotted with stars and looks sparkling.
After defeating Wicks, Roland tried to use Wicks' "pages" to transform into Wicks. Although he could not control the Sword of Silence as skillfully as Wicks himself, he could feel the power of the card.
For him, it is also a pretty good craftsmanship.
This also made him feel even more regretful.
It is so easy for someone who possesses such amazing "swordsmanship" to fall here.
But then, he became more concerned about another thing - where was the card on him?
Theoretically, this card should become a physical card like this [Sword of Silence], right?
Just why...
The card shone with a faint silver light, as if the bottom of the card was white. But no matter how Roland tried, even if he used the power of the "abnormalities" in the library, or even "died" several times on his own initiative, he could not activate the card.
Is it because he is not strong enough? Or does he not have enough faith?
he does not know.
But after he heard about Wicks's [Sword of Silence], he wanted to find out more about what this card looked like.
He always had a feeling, a vague feeling.
This card is more important than his life.
At present, he has not found any information related to the [Silver-white Card], and he has no way to leave the library, so he can only hope that future generations will be able to bring relevant information to the library.
This might be really important to him.
As he tried hard, a string of names flashed across the card, names that scared him so much that he almost fell down.
At the same time, Zhao Ye, who was in the laboratory, was suddenly startled. He glanced at the extraction machine on the side and was slightly surprised.
He knew before that there were people in this world who were "helping" him to make cards, but he didn't mind it. When he encountered some troubles due to the order from Justina, he directly pressed the recycling button and unknowingly recycled all the cards made through emotional collection.
Although there were some obstacles, that Justina obviously did not carry out high-end and repeated blockades, and was successfully recovered by Zhao Ye.
When he thought that no kind-hearted person would help him collect cards anymore, he noticed that there was an extra [Sword of Silence] in his card pool.
This was most likely Wicks' card, so Zhao Ye didn't care too much about it. But then he discovered something even more surprising.
[Princess Angelica surrounded by the Holy Sword]?
Why are there cards with Synchro Monsters flashing? ?
Although it was only a moment, there was definitely a Synchro Monster flashing just now.
but--
There are too few wandering particles in this world. Even if some of them were scattered in the air of the city due to the explosion of the perpetual motion machine during Zhao Ye's "practicality test", those wandering particles could not completely give rise to the birth of a synchronization monster.
But even so, Zhao Ye was very surprised.
Because this represents that there is a person who has an extremely close connection with this series of cards.
This connection can instantly make all the scattered wandering particles in the city respond.
"It seems that besides J Company, there are other people helping me?" Zhao Ye was very surprised.
Flame Paladin is already a very "future" Synchro Deck. The fact that it can be spawned in an urban environment is already quite outrageous - this means that the person who tried to make the card has more and more powerful power than the director of J Company.
Zhaoye shook his head and didn't think much about it.
