Chapter 280 You Demolish My Tower, I Steal Your House (2) (Two in One)
"Hey, Shimada, are you here too?"
Judai looked very upset, but he still insisted on saying hello to Ojiaou, "Long time no see... I just don't know why Professor Chronos asked us to come this time? Do you know Shimada?"
"I don't know either." Ojiaou shook his head: "Anyway... let's go in and take a look first."
Both of them were not in a good mental state, and walked to Chronos' office without saying a word.
"Sit down... I asked you to come here today mainly to express my personal gratitude to Anone." Chronos said while correcting students' homework: "Thank you for saving me, Shimada. And Yuki Judai, you... are very good, really, Anone."
Professor Chronos' office is very simply decorated, which surprised Judai and Ojiaou a little.
Judging from the performance of this professor who usually has exaggerated movements and expressions and calls "Anone" all the time, he should be a very exaggerated person.
The office of such an exaggerated person should also be in a more exaggerated style.
"You seem surprised, Noone?" The professor seemed to notice the surprise of Judai and Ojiaou at the simple layout here, and then smiled with relief and said: "A few years ago, when I first came to this college, my office was actually as you think, a very exaggerated Anone."
Chronos stopped marking students' homework, leaned back on the back of the office chair, took a deep breath, and began to recall the past.
Thinking about it, he closed his eyes.
Seeing that the professor seemed to have no intention of speaking for the time being, Tsundere and Shidai were also waiting there quietly, letting time pass by minute by minute.
After a while, Chronos opened his eyes, looked at Judai and Ojiaou with a complicated expression, and then said: "I really didn't expect this time... Osiris Red actually saved me and Manjomu."
"Professor, you seem to have always had a certain prejudice against Osiris Red. I really want to know why." Before Judai figured out why Professor Chronos suddenly said this, Ojiaou on the side had already spoken first: "I have always believed in a point of view that there is no love or hate without reason in this world. Professor, since you hate Osiris so much, why did you try your best to save Judai at that time? To save a student of Osiris Red?"
Ojiaou looked at Professor Chronos at this time, pursed his lips, and waited for an answer.
After Ojiaou asked this question, Yuki Judai's face changed first-became a little surprised, although only for a moment-then he nodded, looking at Professor Chronos with a little curiosity, wondering how he would answer.
Although Judai was always dissatisfied with Professor Chronos's discrimination against Osiris Red, he only expressed his dissatisfaction in his actions, such as creating some trouble for Chronos, or repeatedly reminding the professor that he had been defeated by Osiris Red.
That's all. Judai never said these things to the professor in person, and would not want to ask the professor why he hated Osiris Red... Of course, with Yuki Judai's straightforward personality, perhaps he had never thought of understanding this problem from the root.
Of course, his not asking does not mean that he is not interested in these things deep down in his heart - in fact, when Ojiaou threw the question to Professor Chronos, the gossipy soul in Judai's heart was already stirred up~
"The reason..." This question seemed to hit the nail on the head of Professor Chronos's mind. Looking at his current expression, he might have expected that Ojiaou or Judai would ask him this question. "Before answering this question, let me ask you first. The opponent this time is a vampire... Shimada, how does it feel to duel with her?"
After hearing this question, the girl carefully organized her words and then said: "It's very oppressive. If I hadn't broken through at the last minute, I might have turned into a doll, waiting for you to rescue me."
Ojiaou told the truth, but she omitted a sentence "But if there weren't idiots on our side helping the other side to cheat, I might have killed her in seconds."
The girl didn't plan to tell anyone about Li Zheng's affairs, no matter how good her relationship with this person was.
"Yes, pressure." When mentioning this word, Chronos seemed to recall some bad memories, so he shook his head and began his own narration: "And your question should also start from the first time we met her - I remember you know more or less, right? Camilla, this is not the first time to come to school."
——————Ancient Mechanical Ultimate Titan——————
It was the spring five years ago, and there was only one semester left before Chronos entered the Duel Academy.
Chronos, who had just entered the duel teaching work, was full of expectations for the future. He hoped that he could teach the best duel new stars in this Pacific Rim Duel Academy.
At this time, the Duel Academy was still an industry that was "just beginning to show its tip", and the world still had a great deal of doubts about whether "duelists need professional teaching".
In this era, it takes courage to enter the Duel Academy to study. Many of the students even came to the school after breaking up with their families. If the Kaiba Group had not been operating at a loss, the Duel Academy at this time would not even be able to recruit students.
And the students' future also seemed very bleak - in the industry, the students were looked down upon by those "social people" who had entered IFD to play professional games early, and they thought that the students of the Duel Academy were just "flowers in a greenhouse"; outside the industry, the students were considered by most parents and public opinion as "people who are not doing their jobs properly".
Reports like "students are obsessed with duels and break up with their families" appeared every day during that period, and the media criticized the Duel Academy like criticizing drug dealers.
Even if it was still vivid that Dongfeng Gu Hui sealed the "Three Phantoms" and saved the entire Pacific transportation industry half a year ago, the international community was also worried about the future of the "duelist" profession.
But Chronos was confident in the future of the duelists, and he believed that the future belonged to the powerful duelists. The reason why he has such a belief is inseparable from the fact that he was defeated by a figure that he could only look up to until now in the "KC Cup" held by Kaiba.
Later, the fact that the person who once defeated him was crowned the "Duel Queen" also made Chronos more determined in his belief.
However, even if he is very optimistic about the future of duelists, Chronos must make a choice among the students he coaches - whether to coach the powerful Obelisk, the tenacious Apollo or the agile Osiris?
Because the entire industry is in the stage of crossing the river by feeling the stones, the professors at that time were very cautious when making this choice; but Chronos is different. He made the choice almost immediately - to coach Osiris Red.
It's not that Obelisk and Apollo's ideas are not good enough, but Chronos believes that if these children want to reach the level of Fujiwara Yukino who defeated him that year, what they need is not strong power or safe tactics, but the "possibility" emphasized by Osiris Red.
When Chronos put on the red uniform, he could feel a heavy sense of responsibility and infinite passion.
Facts have proved that Chronos' teaching ability is really strong. Under his guidance, Osiris Red has produced many talents. At its peak, Osiris Red, which was originally the most questioned by the outside world, has been on par with Obelisk Blue, which was the most popular last year.
And Chronos's most proud student at that time... If you ask now, 99% of people will answer that it was Max Atlas, who was still in the second grade at that time.
But few people know that Max was also influenced by another person to use the "Elemental Hero" deck.
That person is called "Xiang Hongye".
——————Elemental Hero Absolute Zero——————
"No... Rather than being influenced by that person, it is better to say that Max has been chasing Hongye's back, Noone."
When he said this, Chronos drank a sip of tea, and his eyes once again showed a look of reminiscence.
Ojiaou and Judai looked at each other - who is Max Atlas? The contemporary duel king, whose undefeated record has even lasted for more than a year. In other words, as long as those honorary duel kings do not make a move, he is the fixed world champion.
The American media, which has always been the leader in the communication industry, has even been spreading a signal to the world, that is, Max Atlas is the "fastest and strongest" duel king.
Although this is a bit exaggerated, even if it is so exaggerated, and the hatred value of duelists around the world is maxed out, Max's dominance has not been shaken at all - this is enough to prove Max's strong and stable strength.
In Chronos's eyes, such a fierce man was just following the back of a person named "Xiang Hongye"...
As if he didn't notice the surprise of Daidai and Ojiaou at all, Chronos recalled carefully for a while and then said: "And just when I led the Osiris Red team to defeat the most popular Obelisk at that time, the nightmare finally came."
"Nightmare..." Ojiaou murmured, and then she seemed to suddenly remember something: "Wait wait! Professor, can I ask a question?"
"Ask it, Noone."
"I remember that in the existing records in the school, Max Atlas... killed Obelisk alone that year. Of the three players of Lisk, the first two batons of Osiris were killed by Obelisk alone before he appeared. "Ojiaou asked calmly: "But, since it is a school-wide competition, Osiris's strongest players, Hongye Xiang and Max, must appear; if Max is the last baton, then Hongye Xiang must be one of the first two batons... This also means that Professor Chronos, the Hongye Xiang that Max has been pursuing, was killed by the opponent alone with his teammates?"
Ojiaou thought this was a bit incredible - since he was someone who surpassed Max, why didn't Wei Wei be the last one, and was also dealt with by the opponent's vanguard?
To this, Judai also felt that something was wrong, but unlike Ojiaou, who felt why through analytical reasoning, Judai felt that something was wrong entirely because of his duelist intuition.
"Get rid of it... Huhahahahaha!" After listening to Ojiao's question, Kronos smiled bitterly at first, and then explained: "I'm sorry Shimada, but I really feel that if If he had just been killed, it would have been the best news I've heard in years."
"you mean……"
"Back then, Hibiki Momiji didn't even participate in the war with Anone." Cronos said with a sad smile: "He let go of our pigeon Anone for some 'important thing'."
"I see... No wonder Max is only recorded in the school history." Ojiao touched his chin, and then asked: "But even if I let the professor go, I won't make you hate Osiris so much, right?" ?”
Although it is quite resentful to be pigeon-holed, you can’t remember it for so many years, right?
"It would be fine if that's all. At worst, I'll give him a lesson." Kronos smiled bitterly and shook his head: "But... when we found out what 'important thing' Hong Ye was busy with that day , everything is already too late..."
————Outer God Azathoth————
Five years ago, Duel Academy, in the forest.
At this time, the forest was not a "forbidden forest". Although it was somewhat dangerous, students were not completely prohibited from entering. Many student associations even built their own secret strongholds in the forest without telling the school.
The school authorities actually knew about these strongholds, but they did not reveal the secrets of the students, but allowed them to develop, as long as things were within controllable limits.
Among them, the association "Colorful" where Hibiki Momiji belongs also has its own secret base in the forest.
The members of "Colorful" are all the top students in the Duel Academy, and the research they conduct is also very high-end; the reason why Hibiki Momiji defeated Professor Cronos and all the Osiris Red classmates who were waiting for him to show off his power In addition to trusting the strength of their good friend Max, they are doing something researched in "Colorful".
After Max nearly won the championship in a series of three, Kuronos and Max expressed that they needed to ask Hibiki Momiji for an explanation and asked him to treat him.
After all, if he hadn't let go, today wouldn't have been like a roller coaster with twists and turns - in today's final, facing the powerful Obelisk, Max and even Kronos thought about it more than once give up.
"If you ask me, I have to let Hongye give me a bath!" Max Atlas, who was still a little young at the time, held the championship trophy and said excitedly: "At the same time, I also want to fight him again. wheel!"
"Haha, is it just a bath? Atlas, you are so kind, None!" Professor Kronos, who looked very young at the time, also said with some pride: "If you ask me, I have to let him treat us - we The whole college wants to invite Arnone! Then let him give red envelopes to everyone~"
"Yes, yes, yes!" "Professor Kuronos is right!" "Does Xiang Hongye like to torment people too much? If Atlas hadn't been there today..."
…
One after another, the voices of "denunciation" sounded among the Osiris Red students who were following Chronos and Max. However, although it was "denunciation", it could be heard that everyone was very happy. This " "Condemn" is actually more about expressing a mentality of looking forward to announcing the good news to the red leaves.
After all, today's victory was hard-won.
"Okay, everyone, don't move around here for now." When approaching the secret stronghold of "Colorful", the attentive Max said to the others: "Although Professor Chronos knows where the stronghold of 'Colorful' is, but But don’t let them know... I can just ask him to come out alone.”
"Go on, go on!" "You have to beat him up first!" "We'll wait for you."
…
Max smiled, handed the trophy in his hand to Chronos, and walked into the forest silently.
It takes less than half a minute...
"boom!"
Fire shot into the sky.
