All they knew was that whenever the "back alley night" came, the scavengers would appear from the back alleys and kill from one end of the nest to the other, without stopping for a minute or a second, killing everything along the way and cleaning them up.
During this process, they will not stop, no matter their companions are killed by high-level finishers or other things happen, they will continue to move forward without blinking.
They will not disappear again until the end of the night in the back alley, and then they will disappear without a trace in the city as if they never existed.
Many people think that they should be hiding somewhere in the back alley...
But this is a complete misunderstanding.
In fact, scavengers are noble "feathers", that is, residents of the nest.
At the same time, the so-called "back alley late night" is not decided by them, but the rules set by the leader. They are just the executors, and they themselves don't like it. For them, the back alley late night has no benefits except that they can eat freely.
The scavenger is Yu. In most cases, they are active at night, but that doesn’t mean they won’t go out during the day.
Many times, scavengers will disguise their appearance and act cautiously during the day. They also have established rules, just like blood demons, and rarely appear in broad daylight - but like blood demons, they actually blend in with ordinary humans and work normally in the city.
Although, there are some small "differences" in the work.
Because of this, it was actually different from what those people imagined. As soon as they heard that Link Company, a company that obviously had a high probability of becoming the next "L Wing", wanted to invite them to enter the company's base and participate in some competition, they hurriedly sent a team over.
"Link Company allows us scavengers to go out during the day without disguise and do everything allowed by the rules... Oh my God, am I dreaming?"
"Brother, this is definitely not a dream. We have already arrived at the Duel City. This must be what they call it - when things reach their limit, they will turn around. When we are unlucky to the extreme, we will become lucky in the opposite way!"
"The family has lost a lot during this period."
"Uncles and aunts, a lot of people have died these days."
"Eight days ago, the agent of the index finger messed up the neighbor's house; seven days ago, the puppeteer kidnapped the child of Auntie!
Five days ago, Uncle’s children died at night…”
"The night in this nest no longer belongs to us!"
“The Carnival killed so many of our family members, and the Puppet Master killed so many of our children!
And...the uncles and aunts went to the library and never came back!
Our strength is not as great as before. If we continue like this, our children will
I’m afraid even eating will be a problem!”
"And now, Link Company allows us and our families to live a normal life in Duel City - although they don't allow us to eat here, at least we don't have to worry about being killed by someone who rushes over for no reason!"
The scavengers gathered together, chattering and chatting excitedly.
The only problem was that the werewolf clerk standing next to them had no idea what they were saying.
However, before Yu Lu tried to understand them, the tall double-can scavenger Kening who was in the lead picked out a document from among the many documents and pointed to a line of words on it.
duel?
Yu Lu nodded, and then Kening searched again and found a few lines of words, and nodded at Kening.
I see--
After a while, Yu Lu understood.
This group of scavengers are willing to accept the requirements of the Link Company. They will pay the corresponding taxes to the Link Company and abide by the rules of the Duel City and will never use weapons to kill people by force.
"That's good." Yu Lu nodded, "Duel City welcomes everyone to join - look at me, I'm an example."
In order to prove the credibility of his words, Yu Lu opened his mouth, revealing his wolf fangs. He then pointed to the blue wolf hair on his wrist and said to the other party: "Nuo, even a werewolf like me can live normally in Duel City. So you don't have to worry."
Kening nodded excitedly, and the group of scavengers behind him were also extremely excited.
Kenin danced around for a while, then tried pointing.
"Send more people?"
Yu Lu barely understood what Kening meant: "Duel City certainly welcomes new residents...but there are limited residential areas here-oh?"
He watched Kenin dancing for a while.
They prepare their own special "house", will it not affect the Duel City?
Yu Lu was somewhat interested. He had heard that the scavengers' bodies were liquid. It seemed that the space they needed might not be very large.
"That's fine - but please remember to tell your peers not to challenge the rules of Duel City, otherwise..."
Yu Lu stretched out his wolf claws and pointed at the ice sculpture standing tall in the distance.
Even if the destructive desire inside is recovered, the extreme coldness is still imprinted in the hearts of every L-nest resident.
Kenin nodded frantically.
They have lost a lot of family members during this period, and what they hope more is to be able to save more family members in this critical moment.
Just as Kening was about to continue chatting with the amiable and friendly werewolf opposite him, he suddenly heard a roar.
He looked back and saw the brother next door roaring madly.
"Puppet Master!!"
Kening was stunned for a moment, then followed the direction of the voice and saw a middle-aged man with a smile on his face, silver hair and a calm attitude.
“Oh, is it the scavenger?” Puppeteer Jae-hyun saw the guy roaring at him and said calmly, “What a pitiful cry… Have you seen me? But to be honest, I don’t want to see you again. Boring liquid can’t make any interesting puppets.”
A puppeteer with a city star rating?
I didn't expect to see a puppeteer in a place like this...
Some time ago, the Puppet Master's rating was upgraded from Urban Nightmare to Urban Star. It was said that he had offended W and T companies. Unexpectedly, he would directly enter the Duel City.
A few people who were finishing the work on the side were tempted.
City Star——
In the city, the highest rating is basically equivalent to "a major disaster that caused more than one million casualties and missing persons", which will have an impact on the order of the entire city, and requires 1 association to assign a special department to track the trend. Such commissions should be handled by color-level finishers or strong first-level firms.
Under normal circumstances, they wouldn't dare to even approach, let alone look at it - small third- or fourth-level finishers like them are not even considered as soldiers in the face of a city star-level disaster.
But this is... the Duel City!
Here, as long as your duel skills are high enough, even if you are a city star, what does it matter? No matter how powerful you are, can you beat the ice sculpture next to you?
Therefore, a few finishers who were somewhat confident in their dueling skills came up with special ideas.
However, the puppeteer doesn't care about such things at all.
Now, he doesn’t dare to say that he can compare with those top duelists, but he is not worried at all about the group of small characters next to him.
The day before yesterday, he used blank cards to obtain the [Mechanical Puppet] deck.
Although it doesn't look very strong, I like it very much.
To be honest, he was not very interested in the duel, but what Algalia said before enlightened him - Roland might have a part of "Angelica", that is... the soul.
If...if I could get the "son's" card, would I be able to see my own flesh and blood again?
Once this idea was born, it was completely irreversible. He wanted to try it no matter what. In addition, his most important job in the orchestra - making Angelica - could not be completed because Angelica was missing half of the materials, so he asked Pluto for help and came to the Duel City.
Now he has only two wishes.
【,!夜;袭";的":月:费.'群;:】:.6;:""6!，1:3";5."
One is to seek revenge on Roland, and the other is... his son.
If the second item can be completed, even the first item can be postponed a little.
For this purpose, he even asked Pluto to restore him to his normal human appearance.
Now, seeing a few bad-tempered scavengers looking for trouble with him, he put his hands in his pockets, sneered, and was not worried at all.
Seeing several scavengers rushing up to fight him to death, the puppeteer didn't mind at all.
Just as the scavengers rushed forward, two voices rang out at the same time.
The first sound was from Kenin, "Wait! Don't be impulsive!"
Because no one understood, I was ignored by the people around me.
The other voice was——
A card passed by.
call out--
A silver-white card passed by and instantly appeared in front of several scavengers, calming them down instantly.
"This is Duel City."
Tap... tap... the sound of light footsteps slowly sounded.
A few scavengers looked over, then became even more excited than before.
"index finger!!"
Even Kening was a little annoyed.
October took a step forward, and behind her, there were more ascetics than before. Not only her five subordinates, but there were also more than a dozen extra ascetics following her.
"Ha, isn't this October's agent?" The puppeteer looked at October, took out his hands, his face showing a hint of seriousness.
An agent is not a small fry like a scavenger.
October is not considered strong among agents, but she possesses a powerful power that ordinary agents do not possess - the power of cards.
She had left earlier and further ahead than many "high-level combat forces". In the Duel City, she was probably far superior to her peers. Now that he had no puppets by his side, facing an October and a dozen ascetics, it would be absolutely very dangerous.
"Damn, it's the index finger—"
"Index Finger! These guys betrayed us!" The scavengers growled one after another.
Index Finger and the Scavengers are, in a sense, "allies", but some time ago, the "Carnival" under Index Finger killed many Scavengers, causing them to lose a considerable number of their family members, and even Index Finger's agents slaughtered them personally... This made the Scavengers quite angry.
Compared to the obvious "malice" of the puppeteer, Index Finger's betrayal was even more unacceptable to them.
"Please don't misunderstand." October walked slowly with many ascetics, and tapped the ground lightly with her scabbard. A silver-white Synchro Monster Card flew up from the ground. She gently pinched it and put it back into the card box. "The index finger will never betray others. The harm we do to you does not mean the end of our cooperation.
We are just following the instructions."
"Instructions... instructions, this group of fanatics are really..." The scavengers roared.
"Damn you fanatics, do you know what you are doing?"
October felt nothing when she heard these roars - she couldn't understand them.
She was just following orders.
"Everyone, please remember this." After collecting the card, she turned around, not paying any attention to the scavenger who glared at her, nor the puppeteer's gaze, but calmly said to the other ascetics, "This is the [Duel City], here, all conventional force is restricted.
Remember, you must never rush towards others with weapons in hand like these scavengers did.
I will not rescue you."
As he spoke, October took out a piece of white paper and displayed the words on it.
To October, before the start of the Duel City qualifiers, teach everyone and help others once.
"If you receive an order to kill someone with a weapon, you can use the card to complete it. Don't worry about not being able to complete the order - the order knows everything."
instruction.
[Genuine goods and real prices] instructions.
"Follow the instructions." A group of ascetics who were assigned here nodded.
At this time, the scavengers realized belatedly that they almost violated a taboo.
"As expected of Miss October." The werewolf sighed when he saw this scene, "I was thinking someone would kill someone to establish their authority, but I didn't expect Miss October to come."
"Is Zhaoye busy recently?" Shiyue glanced at Yulu and asked.
"President...you know what he is like. He is a focused genius and has endless ideas every day. I don't know what it means to be busy or to have free time." Yu Lu touched the back of his head.
"Then let me ask you another question. How many times a day does Zhaoye appear with coffee in hand?"
"Hiss——" Yu Lu took a breath of cold air.
That's an excellent question.
This question points directly to a truth - the more times Zhao Ye appears, the more free time he has, or the more confused his thoughts are.
But... as an employee of the link company, he has never paid attention to this problem - Oh no, I am outdone by people outside the company.
He felt somewhat dissatisfied, somewhat irritated, and somewhat ashamed.
