Although I know that one day I will face separation.
Don’t, but I didn’t expect that the news of the death of a "famous" duelist would reach their linked company so soon.
Although Wicks did not participate in the Duel Alley competition, he was already a designated third-level duelist... and now, he was gone.
This is the city. She didn't dare to imagine how much suffering and death there was outside the Duel Alley.
The closer of the Sixth Department of the Second Association coughed for a while, took a deep breath, and seeing that the other party was so excited, he knew that there was no problem with the person entrusted by Wicks, so he continued to talk about what happened before.
Upon hearing that the Sixth Section of Association 2 was attacked by gangs because the section chief was missing, and that Wicks escaped alone to protect the newcomers, Youzhou and Heitao could not help but clench their fists.
"Wex... is a true duelist." You Zhou said in pain and struggle, "Not only in duels, even in real life, he can guide others forward..."
Spade then said, "Hey, kid, if that's the case, then you must not let down Weeks' trust and rescue... and work hard to become an excellent closer in the future."
The closer nodded firmly, then dug into his pocket and carefully took out a bloodstained deck.
"This is……"
"Wex's deck?"
The closer nodded.
“Damn it, damn it, damn it…” You Zhou cursed in a low voice, and black flames seemed to be burning on his body.
When he saw this deck, the first card in the deck, and the Silent Swordsman, You Zhou's mood, which was already close to collapse, became even worse.
After he left the nest, besides Zhaoye, Wicks was the first person who took the initiative to find him and truly wanted to help him. Although they had only fought two duels, he had sincerely regarded the other party as a soul friend. They agreed that when they met again, they must decide the winner and move towards a higher climax of the duel.
Even until now, he still has the card given to him by Wicks in his deck, the [Fellow Traveler].
However, now, only the cards are left...
You Zhou now wanted to leave the company immediately, rush out, kill the stray dogs, kill everyone there, avenge his friend, and then find the library in that unknown place to find traces of Wicks's life...
The flames grew more intense, and the sound of dragon roars resounded wildly throughout the company.
Seeing him like this, Hei Tao's heart was alarmed and he immediately took out his card. People from the Security Department and the Intelligence Department also rushed over immediately.
Oh no, oh no, Minister Yuzhou seems to be showing signs of [distortion]! ?
"A cruise?"
Suddenly, a voice broke the chaos. (Monthly fee group 6*949:36135)
The voice was very soft, and there was no emotional fluctuation in it. But after this voice appeared, everything was different.
The flames on You Zhou's body shrank instantly, and You Zhou looked up almost instinctively.
I saw that Zhao Ye had walked out of the door at some point, holding a cup of coffee in his hand, and walked through the railing on the second floor and looked at him.
With just this one question, the distortion of the boat suddenly became smaller.
"President...President, Wicks..." You Zhou said with his eyes closed in pain.
"I've heard what Vivian said." Zhao Ye sighed, and walked down the stairs with Vivian. "I'm also very sorry and painful about what happened to Wex."
He remembered the "Sword of Silence" that suddenly appeared in the card pool before. At that time, Zhao Ye thought that Wicks' duel had improved again. Unexpectedly, it was because of this kind of thing.
“You Zhou, as a duelist, it’s not something you can’t do if you act on your emotions.
However, you have other things to do. At this time, do you want to give up the duel with Algila?
If so, then I can allow you to leave and do what you want to do. "
After hearing this, You Zhou opened his mouth and then fell silent again.
He wanted to accomplish both of these things.
“The hatred, the suffering, the sadness, the grief, living in this city, living in this back alley, I know that you have all experienced torment and suffering.
But... before you think about doing something, you might as well stop and think about what you should do and how you should do it...
I don’t mind if someone quits their job to achieve their own goals, and I don’t mind if someone leaves impulsively. Even if it is an unexpected twist, I will help, because you are the employees of the company, and you are my helpers in promoting my dreams. Naturally, I will also be responsible for you.
Everything about Link Company is out in the open, so I don't need to erase your memory, nor will I restrict your freedom.
But... don't let suffering, pain, and torture fill you up, because I hope everyone can laugh - at least after going through countless tortures, when you see the [rainbow] again, you can look back with regret and feel that what you have done in your life is not in vain. "
"Sorry... President, I... I'm too excited." Hearing Zhao Ye's long, heartfelt words, all traces of excitement on You Zhou's body disappeared completely. He lowered his head and apologized to Zhao Ye.
The core idea of Link Company is smile. Entertainment, duel, and blooming a smile from the heart in this suffering world are their philosophy.
Sadness and pain are inevitable, but you shouldn't immerse yourself in pain and be unable to escape.
"Also, don't rush it."
Zhaoye walked while thinking, "According to this friend who is the finisher, if you fail to enter the library, it seems that you will turn into... a book?"
Zhaoye stroked his chin and said, "If that's the case, then it shouldn't be considered death."
!!!
Everyone's eyes widened.
"what!"
“Yes, that’s right—”
You Zhou became even more excited instantly - yes, yes, just like turning into a card, it does not count as death. Since President Zhao Ye said so, then turning into a book may have a similar mechanism to their company's turning into a card?
If other people get the book, there may be no way to do it, but if it is President Zhaoye, with his talent, he will definitely be able to restore it!
The closer also became excited.
Mr. Weeks is not dead! ?
What exciting news this is!
Zhao Ye was just speculating and had no definite evidence. He explained briefly and asked them not to be too obsessed with this issue. He needed to understand it in detail before he could come to a final conclusion.
Then he walked forward and took Wicks's deck.
Although Wicks only participated in one duel, Zhao Ye was very happy and satisfied with Wicks's fanatical pursuit of duels. Unexpectedly...
He flipped through the cards, and Zhao Ye seemed to be able to recall every one of them, recalling the scenes when Wicks used them when he duelled with October and Youzhou in the Hanno board game shop.
As he flipped through the pages, he recalled the past, somewhat immersed in his memories, when suddenly—
Ok?
what is this?
Zhao Ye's eyes suddenly became sharp.
L...L's Nest...design blueprint?!
This is a detailed map of L's Nest!
Made into a card? No, that's not right! It was Wex who took the initiative to seal it into the card!
There is still a problem with this matter -
He glanced at the ordinary cleaner and said, "Little brother, can you tell us in more detail about the specific battle between your Sixth Department and the Lost Dog Gang? This may be very important."
Chapter 163 Emergency Meeting
Zhao Ye urgently stopped the research.
The research on the super system requires him to explore it personally, and it cannot be rushed. Now a completely different situation has arisen, and Zhao Ye must rethink it.
Because, for some things, he can't wait any longer.
In the meeting room, heads of various departments rushed over.
In addition to You Zhou himself, Han Qimi was also brought to the Welfare Department by him. Since the Construction Department and the R&D Department did not have a director yet, two relevant persons in charge came from each department. Yoshikawa Jasmine and Dia attended as members of the fighting faction and the technical faction respectively, while the R&D Department had Faust and Meursault.
Zhao Ye held a card in his hand. He shook the card slightly, and the card made a crisp "click" sound. Then, a huge blueprint broke out of the card.
This move made people like Spade and Faust extremely surprised. They were already able to turn people and monsters into cards.
However, even to this day, Faust still hasn't fully understood how to turn the cards back into people. Zhaoye's ability to easily turn things back into their original objects is even more surprising to them.
Zhao Ye didn't say much and just spread the things on the table.
"You all heard about what happened just now, right?"
"About Wicks?" Most of the people present actually didn't know Wicks. Only You Zhou, Hei Tao, Vivian and Lin were familiar with Wicks. However, they had already heard reports from their subordinates about the related matters.
Zhaoye nodded, then talked about Wicks' situation and experience, and added the result of him turning into a book after entering the library.
The focus, of course, is the battle between the Second Association's Sixth Section and the Lost Dog Gang.
"Eudora, have you found out anything about the lost dog?" Zhao Ye asked.
Eudora was the first to be named. She shuddered and was a little afraid, but then she forced herself to straighten her back and chest, preparing to muster up the courage to speak directly - but soon, she became deflated and said timidly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhaoye, the Bereaved Dogs gang is too far away from us, and no one here knows anything about it."
Zhao Ye nodded, not surprised.
"But... my department's support has seen that someone in Duel Alley has received an invitation letter, which seems to contain the Book of the Lost Dog..."
"Oh? I see." Zhao Ye nodded.
"Are there some books of Vixen on it?"
"Yes, there are, but... it seems that the books related to Weeks are cards, blueprints and the like."
"Is it true..."
Zhaoye nodded.
He basically understood the types of invitations to the [Library].
"According to the account of the 2nd Association's closer, and the current intelligence, I have basically grasped the general situation. Now, everyone, listen to me."
Everyone nodded.
The cause should be the section chief of Wicks, the man named "Walter".
According to the information heard later, it can be seen that Walter has been asking Wicks to investigate the cause of the [Distortion], and Wicks' first time to the Hanno Board Game Store competition was to find out the relevant truth. After finding out that Zhaoye had nothing to do with the distortion, Wicks explained the matter to Zhaoye.
This is the first point - Walter needs the knowledge of [Distortion], he wants to be promoted.
Secondly, based on the quarrel that broke out during the battle between Section 6 and the Bereaved Dogs, some information can be extracted - Walter once made an agreement with the Bereaved Dogs' boss that the Bereaved Dogs would help Section 6 find information related to the distortion, and Section 6 would provide the Bereaved Dogs with the [L-Nest design blueprint].
The stray dogs seemed to have received orders from Thumb to provide these things in preparation for Thumb's invasion of L's Nest - if they failed to do so, they would face being killed by Thumb.
During this process, Walter discovered that there was knowledge related to "distortion" in the library. He self-righteously took the team leaders of the six departments and accepted the invitation letter from the library.
In other words - the stray dog is facing the threat of death, so it has to fight against the six departments, even if it means searching, to find the design blueprint.
"Ah?" After hearing these things, You Zhou knocked on the table angrily, scaring Han Qimi behind him and forcing him to re-evaluate himself as the minister, but You Zhou didn't care about that. He just continued angrily, "In other words, Wicks was attacked and had to break up, and finally entered the library to keep the secret, all because of Walter's arbitrary behavior!?
It’s really…”
He really wanted to beat Walter up right now, but then he thought that Walter had already turned into a book, so he could only sit there in silence.
"In fact... it shouldn't be. You should know what kind of person Wicks is." Zhao Ye frowned and thought carefully, "He... has always regretted what happened to his brother. After becoming a duelist, the duel with you is also to persuade you to let go and not be bound by the past.
However, he may be the exact opposite. He should choose not to do anything that will make him regret.
So, he might have wanted to enter the library originally, because there might be books of someone he respected in the library - if nothing unexpected happened, it should be his team leader.
He has mastered the ability to print items onto cards, so he should want to take the team leader's book and find a way to restore it, right?"
"It's just that," Spade shook his head, "he didn't want the other newcomers to get hurt or even die, so he tried his best to protect his companions. After making sure everything was OK, he entered the library himself... Sigh, this guy, how could he be so greedy."
Hei Tao and Wicks didn't have a very good relationship, and they didn't talk much during that period, but he had a very close relationship with You Zhou, and they were definitely bad friends. Seeing You Zhou so sad, of course he would feel sorry for him.
"To summarize, Walter wanted to get a promotion and obtain the Book of Twist, so he and other team members entered the library, and ended up trapped inside the library. In order to find the L-Nest blueprint, Bereaved Dog secretly conspired with Walter and worked for Walter. As a result, Walter was turned into a book by the library and could not find the blueprint, so he could only attack the Second Association's Sixth Department like crazy.
In order to protect the newcomers and retrieve the books of the people he respected, Wicks, who was in a bad state and in trouble after being attacked by the stray dogs, entered the library, but unfortunately failed and was turned into books by the library; however, the library also included the secret books of the blueprints in the books it made, and lured the stray dogs to enter to search and fight for them. "
"This is the whole process of development - everyone, it is not difficult to see that there is a very obvious clue in it."
"A clue?" You Zhou looked up in shock.
"It's the library's collection." Faust on the side had naturally thought of it a long time ago, "The library started by accepting guests from a small source, and then tricked the people related to it into the library step by step..."
"Their real rating is definitely not [Urban Legend]. I'm afraid it's much higher than that."
"You Zhou, I don't recommend you sign any invitation letters before you investigate the specific situation of the library. Do you understand?"
You Zhou was stunned for a moment. He thought about it for a moment and then nodded.
Although he really wanted to avenge Wicks and save this new friend he had finally met, he could never accept it if, because of his own audacity and ignorance, he rushed into the library and forced everyone present to find a way to save him.
"All duelists are friends of Link Company. My original intention is of course to hope that all duelists can happily duel in this world.
