Chapter 373: Mysterious Cave

Walking into the cave, the first thing is a wide and long path. The path extends downward as a whole, and there are occasionally some sticky things on the walls, which looks a bit disgusting.

Tenjou Hikari holds a card in his hand. The card lights up, acting like a flashlight, illuminating the road ahead for them.

Or should I say downward?

After walking for a while, the cave gradually became brighter. There were fluorescent stones everywhere around the cave, illuminating the cave.

As Tenjou Hikari went deeper, they gradually heard human voices.

There were not many voices, only two or three people's voices, which sounded a bit familiar.

Walking forward again, the sound became clearer, and the cave became exceptionally bright.

After a while, they passed through the long tunnel and finally opened up, walking into a huge underground cave.

The area of the cave is very huge, and you can't see the end at a glance. Roughly calculated, it might not be smaller than the forest area.

Tenjou Hikari looked far away and could see several students sitting on the ground, discussing fiercely.

"So, why didn't you fuse Ultimate Ancient Gear Golem at that time?"

"Not enough materials, there are not so many Ancient Gears in my deck!"

"Then use Gaia the Dragon Champion!"

"I don't have the materials either—"

"You clearly have Monster Reborn, and reborn a Gladiator Beast!"

Several students discussed noisily, not even noticing the arrival of Tenjou Hikari and the others.

"Huh?" Serena was a little surprised.

Tenjou Hikari breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking like this, at least the people are fine.

Compared to the outside world, this place is indeed closed and remote. It seems that even the demons of the Dark World didn't notice this place.

"A-Saka, how have you been lately?" Tenjou Hikari raised his voice and shouted at them a few times.

Noticing Tenjou Hikari's voice, the few people finally came back to their senses and looked at the entrance of the cave.

"Hikari-bro?"

"Department Head!"

Kagurazaka jumped up directly and waved at Tenjou Hikari: "Ha, Department Head, you guys are here too?"

The three are the Fusion Department duty trio led by Kagurazaka. They are usually responsible for the Fusion Department bar, so they have a good relationship. This time they were also traveling at the Threshold together. Looking from afar, Kagurazaka already had three badge marks. Normally, he should be able to pass the exam smoothly.

Tenjou Hikari talked with them for a while, asked about their situation, and explained why he came to find them specifically.

Hearing that spirits were attacking humans, all three of them were very surprised, some were lucky and some were scared.

Lucky that they had been dueling with the spirits here, so they didn't know what happened outside.

And scared, their food was actually running out. If Tenjou Hikari had been a day or two late, they, who didn't know why, would definitely go out. At that time, if they were attacked by demons, it was very likely that they would have no defense.

Because this is underground, Kaiba Corporation's communication has not been built here, so when they were in the cave, they actually had no way to contact students outside, nor did they know what happened outside. They just kept struggling in this place and dueling with the spirits here.

However, when Tenjou Hikari asked them what the spirits here were, they all closed their mouths and sold the pass, not saying specifically what the spirits here were, only saying that Tenjou Hikari would definitely like them.

"Since the Department Head is here, Kagura, it doesn't matter if we challenge for another day, right?"

"How can that be? There might be students trapped in other places. What if we go late?"

Kagurazaka also nodded, not approving of the first friend's speech.

"It shouldn't be that strict." Tenjou Hikari opened the map and pointed roughly, "I came to the most remote location. In other places, there are other people and spirits to rescue. Overall, everything is synchronized."

I can't go to all places alone, whether in terms of time or resources, it's impossible.

Tenjou Hikari knew this very well, so at the beginning, besides emergency rescue, he was assisting Kaiba Corporation in reorganization.

"Is that so? Then we can stay here for another day!" Kagurazaka got excited.

Tiera couldn't help but poke Tenjou Hikari with her elbow. She was very curious about what kind of thing made these Fusion Department students so persistent.

Honestly, Tenjou Hikari was also a little curious.

Although the Fusion Department cannot choose too many basic decks, it can be considered to have experienced a lot, especially Kagurazaka. He is a rich young master himself, and cards like Ancient Gear are not rented, they are his own cards.

He can even acquire half of Tenjou Hikari's fusion deck. What kind of cards would make them so persistent and excited?

Kagurazaka put the deck into the deck, stood in front of a pool in the cave, and shouted at the front: "Hey————"

"Long Wang————"

"We are ready!"

Accompanied by his call, the pool began to vibrate. Immediately after, one after another small spirits flew out from nearby.

Their bodies glowed with fluorescence, their bodies flowed with mucus, and they surrounded from all directions.

They had small wings, the mucus on their bodies was like mud, their shapes were like dragons, they opened their mouths, and happily and curiously shouted "There are a few new humans, there are new humans~"

The nearby walls, the top of the cave, gradually flew out and emerged various strange little spirits with different appearances. They all shouted excitedly, waiting for a "performance."

And with the circling of these little dragons, on the ground, that "pool" vibrated with gurgling sounds. Slowly, this pool actually floated up and turned into a fluorescent green giant mud dragon.

Tenjou Hikari widened his eyes slowly.

Actually—

Actually it is!

Mud Long Wang!

With the appearance of Mud Long Wang, it slowly opened its mouth, and an ancient voice came from its mouth: "Humans, are you going to challenge me again?"

"That's right!" Kagurazaka said excitedly, his eyes full of fighting spirit and enthusiasm, "This time, I must take away a Swamp King!"

Tenjou Hikari suddenly realized.

So that's it!

No wonder Kagurazaka kept selling the pass to him, saying that Tenjou Hikari would definitely like the spirits here!

It turns out it is 【Swamp】!

Tenjou Hikari couldn't think of it even if he broke his head. The bottom of the cave would be a "swamp"!

Is this the spirit world? It's really strange.

As long as you are a member of the Fusion Department, seeing this place, I am afraid you will not be willing to leave.

Because anyone who has learned about fusion-related cards will definitely realize that these monsters in the swamp are likely to be "universal fusion materials" that can replace fusion materials!
