Chapter 17 The Police and Rescue Always Arrive Late

[Dark Magician] and [Entertainment Partner - Sky Magician] merged into one through [Fusion] magic, and the [Super Mage - Black Magician Disciple] who once defeated Bekas's [Thousand-Eyed Demon] became one. Reappear in front of people.

However, the [Super Mage] with an attack power of 2800 points is more powerful than the [Guardian of the Door] with an attack power of 3750 points. But compared to [Guardian of the Gate] which has no controller, Yugi and Hayato can activate cards to provide support.

"[Magic Wand]!" "[Curse Wand]!"

Two staffs containing powerful magic fell into the hands of the two mages, causing their attack power to soar, directly surpassing the [Guardian of the Door].

[Super Mage - Black Mage Disciple] [ATK2800→4100]

Two magic light cannons rushed towards the [Guardian of the Gate]. Naturally, it would not sit still and wait for death. The [Water Demon God] that formed the crotch opened its mouth, as if it wanted to activate its ability to kill the [Super Mage]. Attack reduced to 0.

But the effect of [Super Mage] has already been activated. A beam of petrifying light burst out from the [Breakthrough Skill] in Yugi's hand, sealing and petrifying all the three upper and lower mouths of [Guardian of the Gate], making them unable to activate their effects.

Without the most troublesome effect, the attack of [Super Mage] directly hit the [Guardian of the Gate], easily crushing it!

"Okay, so awesome!"

"Keihei in female form" exclaimed, looking at Yugi with admiration.

"Nowhere, I alone can't defeat the [Guardian of the Gate]." Yugi said humbly.

Hayato's lips curled up: "Hmph, these memories of the past can't hold us back from living in the present!"

"very scary!"

It was obviously Hayato and Yugi who defeated the [Guardian of the Gate] together, but the attitude of "Female Keppei" towards Hayato and Yugi was completely opposite. He has unreasonable trust and admiration for Yugi, but he has an inexplicable and firm resistance and fear towards Hayato.

"After defeating this gatekeeper, there should be no enemies ahead, right?" Peacock Wu glanced behind the fallen [Guardian of the Gate], and saw a long tunnel leading to an unknown place, "It's dark ahead. It’s painted, so you can’t see anything.”

As if in response to Peacock Dance's words, just as she finished speaking, a cluster of burning flames suddenly lit up in the darkness ahead, like the eyes of a giant beast living in the darkness. The burning flames became more and more numerous, and they were densely packed and quite scary. At the same time, several shouts that were superimposed on each other and somewhat distorted due to the echo of the tunnel came:

"......Princess......"

"...Princess..."

"Princess!"

"Princess Mary!"

"Princess?" Jonouchi looked at the fire approaching from the darkness with some doubts, and remained vigilant, "Hey Hayato, aren't we already out of the maze? Why are there monsters ahead? Besides, we There’s no princess here either?”

Keihei gave Jonouchi a roll of his eyes: "Idiot, isn't this woman a princess?" As he spoke, he pointed at the woman dressed next to him.

"Kuihei in disguise" or "Princess Mary" heard the shouts coming from the tunnel, and was not afraid at all. Instead, she responded excitedly: "Nanny, I'm here!"

"Princess Mary!"

The flames in the darkness revealed their true form. They were soldiers holding torches high, and the person who led them to Hayato and his group was an old woman who looked quite old.

"Princess Mary, I'm so glad you're okay!"

As she spoke, the nanny picked up Guiping, ignored his resistance and struggle, and said with a distressed look on her face: "Princess, I'm really wronging you, to dress up like this."

"No, I'm not a princess!" Keppei tried his best to push away the nanny's mouth that was about to touch his face, "That guy is a princess!"

"Princess, you don't have to be afraid anymore, you are safe." The nurse was not listening to Guiping's words at all. Seeing that Guiping was about to be kissed by her, a shy and angry voice came from behind her: "Nanny! "

"Ah?"

The nanny turned to look behind her and found that her princess was actually behind her. She shouted to herself with red cheeks: "Nanny, I'm here!"

"Princess, there are actually two of them?!" The wet nurse was a little confused about the situation. She looked left and right, and finally distinguished Keppei and Princess Mary. But she had new doubts: "Princess, who are these people?"

"Ah, by the way, I didn't introduce them to you." Princess Mary turned sideways and reached out to guide Yugi and the others, "These warriors are my saviors. They rescued me from the maze."

"Hey." A few people had shy smiles on their faces.

"Everyone, please follow me to the kingdom, and be sure to let me repay you for your life-saving grace." Princess Mary said, holding Yugi's hand and leading him deeper into the tunnel. Several people also followed.

Hayato walked at the end of the team, looking at Princess Mary who was walking in front. His face no longer looked as disappointed as before, but he was thinking about something. There is a vague suspicion in his heart, but the evidence so far is not very sufficient, so he can only keep it deep in his heart for the time being.

However, if this speculation is true, then this DM world is so interesting, especially Princess Mary. It is really difficult for Hayato not to associate her existence with someone.

After passing through the long tunnel, a few people finally walked out of the giant rock temple and saw the light of day again. After looking back, they discovered that they had actually passed through the entire mountain range connected to the giant rock temple from the cave and arrived at a vast plain. among. At the exit, there were several horse-drawn carriages pulled by "chickens" stopping here to serve as means of transportation for a few people, as if they had already known that Hayato and the others would appear.

Princess Mary and the wet nurse got on the carriage in front, while Hayato and his five people were on the carriage in the back. However, because the space in the carriage was quite spacious, they were not very crowded.

According to Princess Mary, there was still some time before the destination, so a few people chatted on the carriage.

"Do you think that Princess Mary can be trusted?"

Peacock Dance glanced at Jonouchi who asked the question: "No problem, no matter how you look at it, Princess Mary is an NPC that advances the main plot. She doesn't look like a bad guy. Moreover, that guy should be a character based on Kaiba Keppei. Bar?"

Keppei nodded helplessly. Although he didn’t want to admit that the character he was based on was actually a woman, he did look exactly like Princess Mary.

"Seto Kaiba will not allow a character with the same face as his brother to become a villain in his company's game. That's your judgment, Miss Mai." The game also feels that Princess Mary can be trusted.

Hayato, on the other hand, asked an unrelated question: "Kuihei, has your appearance information also been entered into the Kaiba Group's database?"

"Yes, because many confidential places in the Kaiba Group use facial recognition authentication. What's the matter, Hayato-nii?"

"It's nothing, I just wanted to ask out of the blue." Hayato prevaricated, pointing to the distance outside the window, "Look over there."

Several people looked out the car window and saw a white castle built on top of a high mountain, surrounded by a group of houses that looked like stars next to the moon. It looked like an epic feeling.

Jonouchi even sighed: "A castle on a high mountain, a hero who is warmly received, makes it feel like an adventure story!"
