Chapter 168: Changed History

"What is this? Is it a side quest item?" Li Zheng looked at the envelope in his hand and asked Bai Loli.

"Yes, you'd better open it and take a look." After Bai Loli told Li Zheng about these things, she didn't say much and sent Li Zheng back with Hei Loli. Before leaving, she said, "Who knows, after this mission is completed, the Spirit Hall can also be opened."

When Li Zheng returned to his room, Terminal and Zero were playing games - Zero played the player, and Terminal was responsible for playing the handheld game console that was rubbed back and forth - feeling all kinds of emotions coming from Terminal, it was obvious that this guy was happier than Zero who was playing games at this time.

Ignoring the terminal that seemed to have awakened some strange properties, Li Zheng sensed Tokiomi and Patchouli. They were now in the Human Spirit Hall - most likely doing some research or reading a book or something - so there was no need to disturb them.

[Then, let me take a look alone, what is in this envelope? ] Li Zheng carefully opened the quest item, and the thin envelope shook out twelve cards in an unscientific way! And a neatly folded paper.

The paper was called [Witch's suicide note], written by Irene before her death, and was for her brother. The suicide note contained many memories and Irene's confession of what she had done. Of course, the most was doubt and confusion.

Li Zheng felt a little blocked in his heart, so he simply stopped reading the suicide note.

Then, there were twelve cards "attached to the suicide note", and Li Zheng turned them over one by one.

[Oh my god, this is a benefit! ] Li Zheng looked at the cards scattered on the tablecloth and thought: [Firefly, ladybug, bumblebee, damselfly, centipede... Although there is only one of each, all non-Cyber ​​Beetle monsters are here... Hmm, why are they all in an unusable state? Oh my god, the task props cannot be used? ! System, are you here to tease me? 】

That's right, all the cards that came out of the envelope were marked with "mission props, cannot be used in duels", which directly aborted Li Zheng's mainstream newspaper career.

[Wait, for beetles, non-super-quantity beetle monsters...fireflies, ladybugs, bumblebees, damselflies, centipedes, ants, locusts, earwigs, and three gyrflies, I remember there were only eleven in total. ] Li Zheng touched his chin and thought: [The beetle fanatic in the board game club in my previous life kept repeating this in front of me every day, so I won't remember it wrong, so this extra card is...]

Li Zheng turned over the last card on the table. It was a card that would never appear in this pile of "beetle installation" monsters.

[Elf Card (Sleeping): Ultimate Gem God·Rainbow Dark Dragon]

After returning to the real world, Li Zheng felt Xiao Hui's concern for him the first time. Li Zheng naturally had a plan to deal with it. After all, he knew that he would be "offline" for a while since he heard about the system upgrade, so he prepared a statement before.

[Um, Xiao Hui, what about me this time...] Just as Li Zheng was about to speak, he heard Xiao Hui's reply that was like tears of joy: [Li Zheng! You're still here! That's great... That's great, I thought you were going to...]

[Wait, this situation is not right? ! ] Li Zheng touched his head in confusion, tilted his head and said to Xiao Hui: [Um, I just went to do some personal things, it's okay, right? ]

[Yeah, yeah, it's okay. ] The girl in the real world wiped her tears, [Li Zheng, I'm glad you're safe. ]

Hearing this, Li Zheng probably knew that the girl was too concerned, but after all, he was also wrong for not saying hello in advance, so he pretended that nothing happened and said: [Hey, it's no big deal. After all, I didn't expect that Irene would be...]

[Irene?] But what Li Zheng didn't expect was that the girl was confused when she heard this name. She tilted her head and said: [Irene...who is it?]

[Huh? Don't you know Irene? She's our opponent in the first round of the quarterfinals, the witch who occupied someone else's body to participate in the competition. You were thinking about saving her before.] Li Zheng was also confused. He didn't know why the girl suddenly didn't know Irene. [It was she who eliminated Koumaru during the preliminaries.]

[Um, Li Zheng, didn't I eliminate Koumaru? To be precise, didn't you duel with Koumaru? 】Xiao Hui still didn't understand: [You used the "Ninjutsu: Super Transformation Technique" to summon the "White Dragon Ninja" to clear Komari's LP. 】

[Eh hey hey hey? 】Li Zheng was even more confused, but at this time he had understood one thing, that is, "Eileen Anderson" had disappeared from Xiao Hui's memory for some reason!

Even the course of history may have changed!

[Poor Eileen, this is excluded...] Li Zheng shook his head and continued to ask: [Then what were you worried about just now? ]

[Well, the first game was a duel between you and Lishid. 】Xiao Hui said: [You beat him badly, and he had no choice but to use three "Apopis's Transformation Gods" as sacrifices to summon the "Winged Dragon of the Sun God", but for some reason you and he were both struck by lightning and fell into a coma, and I also unconsciously regained control of my body and stood up at that time. 】

[…Ah?] Li Zheng listened to Xiao Hui as if he was listening to a divine book.

Xiao Hui hadn’t stopped yet. The girl who usually spoke little was not stingy with words at this time—of course, this was also related to the fact that she didn’t need to speak when communicating with Li Zheng: [Lishide hasn’t gotten up yet. I heard from that woman (Isis) that he was punished by God. At that time, I thought you would never come back...]

[It seems that history has changed after all. 】 Li Zheng shook his head. This sentence was not transmitted to the girl. Instead, he thought to himself: [Maybe it is because the system absorbed Irene, but I always feel that this card has something to do with it...]

Li Zheng looked at the "Ultimate Gem God·Rainbow Dark Dragon" in his hand and thought silently: [Perhaps, Irene's "existence" in this world has been condensed into this card - after all, the side quest called "Awakening" is simply a spoiler - so she will disappear from everyone's memory, and even those people and items closely related to her are ignored by everyone...]

The reason why Li Zheng is sure that Irene disappeared from everyone's memory and the records of things instead of disappearing from history is that Li Zheng can still clearly see from Xiaohui's vision: in the duel field at the top of the duel airship, a girl's body is sleeping quietly there, all the spectators, bodyguards and even Peacock Dance and Malik who are fighting in the duel field - by the way, why is this guy's expression so ferocious? ——No one noticed the body on the duel field: Tachikawa Reina's body!

[I'm afraid that there is no record of Irene in the current "history", but it is not clear to what extent this influence has reached. It just seems that this matter is becoming more and more troublesome...] Li Zheng narrowed his eyes, said hello to Xiaohui, and returned to his room to start a new round of planning-the current priority is naturally to watch the original animation of Yu-Gi-Oh, and only by mastering the information can he take the initiative.

At this time, Peacock Dance is using the three sisters of "Hawk Girl" on his field as sacrifices, and wants to summon the real "Winged Dragon of the Sun God" that he just took from Malik on his field!

"I will sacrifice the three bodies of "Hawk Girl" and become my power, "Winged Dragon of the Sun God"!" Peacock Dance slapped this card of the strongest god who has not yet appeared but is said to be on the duel disk like a madman.

The golden light is shining, and the majesty of the god is coming unstoppably!

Peacock Dance used three "harp maidens" as sacrifices... and summoned, a ball?
