Chapter 518

In a hospital in the Upper Tier, Captain Niuwei persuaded the parents of the two children who had come to express their gratitude to leave, unable to help but wipe his sweat.

The two children insisted on seeing their "Big Brother" and "Big Hero," but this was a hospital after all, and patients needed quiet rest, so it took a lot of effort to appease the children and let them come back in a few days.

He had been busy all day, not knowing how many things he had done that he wouldn't have dared to think of before: leaking secrets, saving people, protecting wanted criminals, and even escorting Ke Luo to the hospital for treatment.

Clearly, as a security police officer, he should have stopped all Lower Tier people from coming to the Upper Tier, but today he had taken the initiative to protect someone to come here.

Perhaps, he had really changed because of the duels these past few days?

It was also possible that he just remembered his true original intention.

He scratched the back of his head, sighing about whether he was sick and whether he should get checked here too, and then walked into the ward again.

Because he was a Lower Tier person, although he received treatment from the Upper Tier and was even thanked by the parents of the Upper Tier nobles, other Lower Tier people were still excluded from the passage, so Ke Luo had no relatives or friends who could come to visit.

Therefore, this thankless job naturally fell to Captain Niuwei.

When he walked into the ward, Ke Luo had already woken up. He looked at the sky, and although he had woken up, his brain still seemed very confused.

Honestly, Captain Niuwei was very surprised.

Because he had watched Ke Luo fall from the sky and smash into a meat patty, yet that Earthbound God had directly resurrected Ke Luo, and even resurrected him in a completely full state—the hospital doctor was very amazed after the examination, because Ke Luo's body had almost no injuries or illnesses. Not to mention injuries from the fall, he was even healthier than the vast majority of Upper Tier duelists!

One must know that Lower Tier people generally had worse physical fitness than Upper Tier people because they couldn't get normal nutritional intake for a long time. Although Upper Tier people promoted that this was because their genes were superior, the doctors here were very clear about why.

So the doctor was very amazed and quite curious about Ke Luo's physical data.

"Even the body's illnesses and hidden dangers have been eliminated?" Captain Niuwei whispered.

As a repeat offender who had been imprisoned several times, Captain Niuwei still knew Ke Luo quite well, and he also knew that Ke Luo was definitely not as healthy and perfect as he appeared. As a result, he was now stronger than him.

Absurd.

Is this the power of the Earthbound God?

"Where are those two children?"

"They have already been taken away by their parents."

Ke Luo lay on the bed, staring blankly at the sky.

Captain Niuwei yawned. He was quite tired from being busy all day and was just about to sit down and nap for a while when he suddenly noticed the screen in the room turn on. He muttered about why the nurse here didn't turn it off in advance to let the patient rest, and then saw a black bald head appear on the screen.

On the screen, he was cold and serious, reciting his own name and also saying the name of another person.

Tenjou Hikari.

Instantly, the attention of the two people in the room was completely attracted.

The person on the screen claimed to be Professor Chi Ma Professor Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang, the commander of the Fusion Army and an ally of the nobles. He would next represent the nobles to suppress all Lower Tier thugs who dared to resist the Upper Tier.

"So this guy is the boss of those strange police officers?" Captain Niuwei's expression was not good, "Tsk, those nobles, for the sake of their own status, even borrowed the help of dimensional people?"

This was like two forces in an ancient country fighting each other, and one side suddenly brought in barbarians to burn, kill, and loot the locals.

Today, he had seen with his own eyes that those Fusion Army security police officers showed no mercy at all, and many times they didn't even arrest people, directly turning them into souls with the power of cards, or simply exterminating Lower Tier people with guns and cannons.

Such people, those nobles were actually cooperating with them??

Professor Chi Ma Professor Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang didn't say too many polite words, nor did he say anything about the friendship between Fusion and Synchro lasting forever, but directly said that he would use even more terrifying power to suppress the Lower Tier people next. Not only that, those traitors who dared to help the Lower Tier people would also be cleared out.

Bang—

You Xing, who was watching the live broadcast, couldn't help but hammer the table with his hand.

"What kind of nonsense is this guy spouting."

He gritted his teeth.

Godwin, who was being "placed under house arrest," watched this scene, but the smile on his face did not disappear. On the contrary, he said silently: "How about it, have you decided? Do you still want to keep watching?"

After he spoke so abruptly, his adjutant Ye Ge was startled. He looked around but didn't find any strange people, thinking his superior had gone crazy. Just at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from the side.

"I am no longer your clown, Godwin!"

Ye Ge screamed instantly, and then looked over, only to see that at some unknown time, a tall man with blonde hair had walked into the room step by step.

Godwin never worried about being placed under house arrest.

Even if he didn't take the initiative to do things, he knew that there would always be someone coming to "save him."

Jack had a cold face, and behind him followed Ka Li, who was even more nervous than Ye Ge, trembling as she walked in.

"Jack, long time no see. Seeing you in good health really makes one happy." Godwin said with a smile.

Jack had a cold face: "Hmph, the lanes are full of guys who don't know death and trash attacking ordinary people. You actually don't go to manage it at a time like this. So you really were captured, right?"

Unlike Ke Luo, when he discovered the situation escalating, Jack's first thought was, of course, to question Godwin face-to-face, asking Godwin why he was doing these things.

But after crossing multiple obstacles, he discovered that this time was different from before. This time it wasn't that Godwin didn't want to see him, but that Godwin was locked up!

"Now, go and change the order for me immediately!"

Godwin was as calm as ever, nodding, but said: "However, at this time, wanting to change the Upper and Lower Tiers that have completely fallen into the flames of war, relying only on my own order won't work—Jack, as a duelist, as a King, as the common idol of the Lower and Upper Tiers, only if you come forward can you make both sides quiet down, even if it's just for a few seconds."

"Do you want me to perform as a clown again!?" Jack questioned angrily.

"It's not a performance, it's accepting your mission." Godwin said again.

"Hmph..." Jack had a cold face but didn't refute.

The reason he came so late wasn't because his fists had softened while bringing Ka Li, but on the way here, he had also seen the broadcast those police officers were watching, and seen the duel between Ke Luo and Tenjou Hikari.

He knew that Ke Luo was trying to change this world and help You Xing in his own way, and he also saw Tenjou Hikari, who, despite having only met You Xing a few times, already understood You Xing very well and was willing to believe in You Xing.

Tenjou Hikari's duel made him feel passionate after watching it, and more importantly, he had already decided to make up for his previous mistakes and help You Xing, help that You Xing who was willing to modify himself to change the world.

As a result, Godwin saw him and actually wanted to make an issue of him again?

He didn't want to be some fake King!

"Jack—"

Just at this moment, Ka Li suddenly spoke.

Jack looked at Ka Li.

At critical moments, Ka Li would always think of ideas that were more meaningful and more in line with his thoughts: "Jack, haven't you already decided to become the true King, the King of the children?

But if there is no future, it's impossible to become that King forever, right?"

She smiled and said to Jack: "Just move forward in the direction of that King!"

Jack took a deep breath.

Ye Ge looked at this scene in amazement.

He was seeing someone who could persuade the angry Jack Atlas for the first time!

"Hmph... since that's the case, then fine. But, Godwin, don't think I will be manipulated by you at will again!"

Godwin smiled, glanced at Ka Li thoughtfully, nodded lightly, and responded to Jack's words.

And just at this moment. Professor Chi Ma Professor Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang's next sentence came from the light screen.

"You are watching, right, Tenjou Hikari."

Jack glanced over.

"Since you want to go against our Fusion Army, then I will give you a chance."

"Tomorrow morning, at the Noble House, I will have the security police clear a path for you and provide you with the opportunity to come directly here."

Jack instinctively spoke immediately: "What is this idiot saying? Does he think others will foolishly run directly into your base and be attacked by everyone?"

No one would think Tenjou Hikari would foolishly go to his death.

After all, your Fusion Army has guns and cannons, and even manufactured materialized mechanical giants to attack civilians. If you mainly ambush hundreds of axemen, no matter how strong Tenjou Hikari is, he might be beaten to a pulp.

Ke Luo listened for a while, feeling that this person was an idiot, and didn't have that much interest.

But—

"Betting on the name of 【Fusion】. Tenjou Hikari, I am waiting for you here in person."

Swish—

Ke Luo bounced directly from the hospital bed, making a move to leave the ward. Captain Niuwei, who was on the side, was also startled when he heard this sentence, but seeing Ke Luo was about to leave the ward directly, he hurriedly stopped him.

Although they had only known each other for a few days, now, both of them regarded Tenjou Hikari as a friend, especially Ke Luo. After dueling Tenjou Hikari in a true-to-life manner, and after accurately feeling Tenjou Hikari's "heart," he believed in Tenjou Hikari's character even more than before.

He was willing to believe in Tenjou Hikari before because Tenjou Hikari was You Xing's friend, but now he believed in Tenjou Hikari because of Tenjou Hikari himself!

Dueling using the name "Fusion," how could Tenjou Hikari endure it?

No, absolutely cannot wait here.

He immediately thought again that since he used this name to make Tenjou Hikari "go to his death," then he was sure that Tenjou Hikari would inevitably meet the challenge head-on.

Because Tenjou Hikari, the duelist, Tenjou Hikari, the Fusion user, would never refuse such a thing.

Especially the provocation from another person who used "Fusion" as a slogan!

Not to mention, it sounded like Tenjou Hikari had always had conflicts with this Fusion Army!

He immediately dismissed the thought he had previously had of stopping Tenjou Hikari from doing this.

Impossible to stop, and he wouldn't stop him either.

Then... think of a way to help him?

But how to help...

He looked at Captain Niuwei, then looked outside the room, remembering those nobles and those few children: "Ah."

There was a way to help him reduce the pressure.

"Captain Niuwei, can you help me find those parents again? I feel my body is almost better."

Captain Niuwei was stunned, not understanding why he changed so quickly, but after hesitating for a moment, he nodded.

Inside the Security Bureau, Jack listened to Professor Chi Ma Professor Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang's words with a cold face, remembered the appearance of Tenjou Hikari when he dueled Di Wei En before, knew that he couldn't retreat when facing danger, and snorted coldly: "You're lucky, Godwin, what to do."

Now was not the time to hesitate.

"Heh... very simple."

Godwin smiled and began to speak, telling Jack his next plan.

Unknowingly, the right to speak of several people was once again controlled by Godwin, and Godwin had also long been prepared for a comprehensive preparation from top to bottom.

Next, it only required all forces to cooperate with him, and everything would be ready.

Returning to You Xing's base, You Xing saw Tenjou Hikari excitedly clenching his hands, his whole person not showing any fear at all, but instead appearing extremely excited and extremely happy. That appearance was even more excited than when he had picked up Stardust Dragon.

His previous exhaustion, sighing, headache, and helplessness toward Serena were almost swept away at once, visibly becoming many times more energetic.

Looking at this, Tenjou Hikari dueling this Professor Chi Ma Professor Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang wasn't a matter of one or two days.

"Hikari, be careful, he won't let you duel him so easily."

"Ha, I knew this long ago. I know it better than you." Tenjou Hikari laughed directly upon hearing You Xing's words and gave a thumbs up.

Others might not know, but how many times had he dueled soldiers and assassins of various levels of the Fusion Army himself? Could he not know this?

So that's how it is.

You Xing suddenly realized.

As a person from the F-dimension, he must have had many dealings with the Fusion Army. Since that was the case, he didn't need to worry so much.

Compared to this, perhaps it would be better to help Tenjou Hikari share the pressure tomorrow.

Moreover, he couldn't allow those Fusion Army guys to act recklessly in their world.

"Master..." On the other side, Serena hesitated rarely and called Tenjou Hikari in a low voice.

Tenjou Hikari looked at her, then looked at Rin and Hui Liu Li. He thought for a moment, and finally walked to Serena and said to her: "Serena, life always has such and such difficulties and tempering. On the road of life, choices are sometimes more important than effort.

In this world, there is nothing that can see the truth and the human heart better than a duel—

Tomorrow, you stay here and watch my duel with Professor Chi Ma Professor Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang."

The other two girls looked at each other, seeing the doubt and worry in each other's eyes.

Why would Serena worry about that bastard who wanted to kidnap them?

Just because he claimed to be their "father"?

The next day.

After Tenjou Hikari woke up and simply moved his body to ensure he was full of spirit, he took the card hanging on his chest without hesitation and put it into the deck he had carefully prepared and modified yesterday.

He had nothing to say to Professor Chi Ma Professor Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang! Absolutely impossible to hold back even a little!

Subsequently, he greeted Serena and the other children, immediately drove, and drove toward the destination.

On the way, occasionally some Lower Tier people would see Tenjou Hikari. They already knew about the great battle between Ke Luo and Tenjou Hikari yesterday, and through the omnipresent screen broadcasts, they knew what Tenjou Hikari was going to do.

These people who gathered to resist the Upper Tier people, as if responding to some slogan, as if there was some password, these Resistance forces launched their new round of resistance the moment Tenjou Hikari drove.

On the straight road leading to Area 9, countless security police officers wearing purple uniforms stared fixedly at Tenjou Hikari. They summoned materialized monsters, staring at Tenjou Hikari nervously and carefully.

Tenjou Hikari could even see seniors he had met in the "Fusion Department" and who had graduated among this group of people. Tenjou Hikari waved at them, and they became even more nervous.

Just as they were about to summon machinery to attack Tenjou Hikari, a touch of green starlight flashed out in the sky, and those controlled, materialized machines all seemed to lose power, lying limp on the spot.

Tenjou Hikari looked behind. At some unknown time, You Xing had already arrived here, and following by his side were even more people resisting the Upper Tier.

Their relatives and friends were killed by the Fusion Army using power. At this moment, in the identity of You Xing as the "New King" and the true "symbol" of the Lower Tier, they launched resistance together again.

You Xing nodded at Tenjou Hikari, Tenjou Hikari responded, and moved forward again.

Passing through the straight corridor and arriving at Area 9, Tenjou Hikari did not lower his speed and continued to drive forward.

Directly above Area 9 was Area 6, which was also the harmonious area that truly entered the "Upper Tier." Here, the office and leisure areas of the Upper Tier people truly appeared, and nobles truly appeared. Here was the batch of security police officers from the S-dimension controlled by the Noble House. At this very moment, they were ready to go and guarding here.

And at this moment, sounds of condemnation rang out. Several security police officers turned around and saw a large number of nobles opposing their indiscriminate attacks on Lower Tier people. In the crowd, Ke Luo wiped the tip of his nose with his finger and punched toward Tenjou Hikari with Captain Niuwei, who was also in the crowd.

Although he had thought about using his behavior of saving children yesterday to appeal to the Upper and Lower Tiers not to be hostile to each other again, he didn't expect this time to go so smoothly.

It was as if someone had deliberately cooperated with them and had long wanted to do this.

But he didn't mind.

If he could help Tenjou Hikari, even if he were being used, Ke Luo wouldn't mind.

Tenjou Hikari couldn't help but laugh. He raised his fist, punched the air with Ke Luo, and then continued forward without hesitation.

Passing through Area 6, the road further ahead was the true corridor leading directly to "Area 1, Taiyi Garden."

But Area 1 could not be reached directly; one had to light up the passage beacons of Area 2 and Area 3 to arrive. Moreover, Professor Chi Ma Professor Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang was not in Area 1, so Tenjou Hikari turned in the right direction and headed toward the Elder Council.

On the way, a large number of Fusion Army elites and spirits and robots controlled by the Fusion Army appeared. They stopped Tenjou Hikari's progress, stopping Tenjou Hikari from touching their "Sun."

But just at this moment—

Boom!

In the distance, a cannonball landed in the Fusion Army's ranks, and an ancient mechanical Chaos Giant fell in response. Following that, a crimson magic dragon streaked across the sky, knocking the Fusion Army soldiers to the ground.

"Ha." Jack sneered.

At this very moment, he was leading the Godwin-faction police officers who had no idea what to do because Godwin couldn't give orders, and was fighting against the Fusion Army soldiers and the Elder Council's soldiers, sneering: "Solve these guys who insult our dimension!"

After saying that, he looked at Tenjou Hikari again, raised his chin slightly, signaling Tenjou Hikari to move forward; he could stop them here.

"Thanks! Jack!" Tenjou Hikari couldn't help but laugh.

"Master, so cool—" Looking at the recordings from all over, looking at Tenjou Hikari moving forward without stopping under the help and support of countless people, Serena couldn't help but exclaim.

"Jack is also cool!" This was Yu Wu.

"Brother You Xing is even more amazing—" This was Rin.

As an outsider, Hui Liu Li was a bit awkward, but she also had to admit that this feeling of overcoming hardships and challenging strong enemies with the support of partners was really good.

On the other side, Tenjou Hikari finally stopped the car in front of the Elder Council. Just as he was about to get out of the car, a voice suddenly came from the car.

"Oh no, Tenjou, Serena can't be found!"

"That idiot You Cheng Shi Dai, I agreed with him to watch carefully—that girl knows what she's planning at a glance." Wan Wan Wan Zhangmu's voice suddenly sounded.

Tenjou Hikari couldn't help but mutter after hearing it: "Fortunately, I know where Serena is, otherwise if you came out with that so suddenly, I would be scared to death. My mind is full of this, and my thinking can't be clear."

"What, Hikari, you know where Serena went?" This time it was You Cheng Shi Dai's voice.

"Don't squeeze me, idiot, he can hear even if you're far away!" Wan Wan Wan Zhangmu roared in exasperation.

A moment later, Tenjou Hikari exchanged the situation with the two of them. Upon learning that Tenjou Hikari was actually going to duel Professor Chi Ma Professor Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang, the two of them couldn't help but wail in addition to worrying.

They also wanted to settle the score with Professor Chi Ma Professor Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang!

But since the duel was already going to happen, the two of them would just follow, don't lose points, and take their share to let Professor Chi Ma Professor Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang learn a lesson.

"Remember to install the instrument back on the Duel Disk. We don't want to miss this duel." The two had full confidence in Tenjou Hikari and also very much wanted to see the scene of Professor Chi Ma Professor Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang's failure.

Tenjou Hikari nodded, took the instrument off the D-Wheel, and installed it back on the Duel Disk.

Subsequently, he strode and stepped into the Elder Council.

Inside the Elder Council, some nobles sat in the audience seats above, silently examining Tenjou Hikari's entry. On both sides of the Elder Council, the true elites of the Fusion Army were lined up, those generals who were on the same level as Li Luo Si.

Even those who were not present could see this duel at this time, such as You Li and others who were stationed at the base.

"Heh, you've come? Tenjou Hikari."

"Of course." Tenjou Hikari didn't talk nonsense either. He flicked his left hand, purple electricity lit up, the Duel Disk rotated automatically, covering his left half of the body.

Professor Chi Ma Professor Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang stood up. Behind him, a massive machine was roaring crazily.

"Tenjou Hikari, I have warned you many times not to be self-righteous and go against us, but since you are stubborn, don't blame me."

"Don't talk so high-sounding. The fundamental reason I have always gone against you is because you and your Fusion Army act recklessly."

Professor Chi Ma Professor Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang narrowed his eyes, staring at Tenjou Hikari: "Hmph, fine."

"You have always respected dueling, respected Fusion. Since that's the case, then, let's bet on the name of Fusion.

Tenjou Hikari, if I lose, then, I will give up the power to lead the Fusion Army.

If you lose, then, you will admit that the Fusion of the Fusion Army is the true Fusion, and from now on, you will walk as the 【Commander-in-Chief】 of my Fusion Army."

Instantly, several Fusion Army generals in the room showed obvious wavering, but as soldiers, they didn't speak or whisper.

Unlike them, those noble elders were much more direct. Upon hearing Professor Chi Ma Professor Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang's words, they immediately discussed it chattering.

In these words, wasn't it saying that these generals were not as good as Tenjou Hikari?

Actually, these generals also knew very well.

Why hadn't the Fusion Army selected that "Commander-in-Chief" until now?

The reason was here. Although they were all very excellent, no one stood out from the crowd, and no one was significantly stronger than other colleagues.

But Tenjou Hikari was different.

He was the first person to force the Professor to take action personally!

"Ha, the premise is that you have to follow the rules of dueling, right?" Tenjou Hikari was amused after hearing it.

Professor Chi Ma Professor Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang didn't respond to this sentence, just opened the Duel Disk.

The next second, the massive machine behind him erupted with bright rainbow light.

"Duel!" x2.

Absolute Fusion User, Tenjou Hikari, LP: 4000.

Fusion Army Commander, Professor Chi Ma Professor Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang, LP: 4000.
