Chapter 106 The Starlight Theater of Talos (4K)

Beacon tower.

It's a very strange name.

But this is a landmark building in almost every city in the Starry World.

As the city's center, it is the starting and ending point for all guiding robot signals.

Even standing on the edge of the city, you can easily see the tall iron tower standing in the center of the city.

Beneath the beacon tower lies the liquid processing room of the mainframe.

Therefore, this is the most central area of ​​the entire city, and no one is allowed to approach it. It is a rare no-fly zone in this drone era.

How did He Kan's guiding robot end up there?

Can't it just be a matter of returning to one's mother's embrace?

Shen Yi, who had still held a sliver of hope, immediately realized that something must have happened to He Kan after seeing the coordinates provided by Vera.

Fortunately, to avoid others mistakenly believing that Shen Yi was part of some hacker organization, Vera did not speak when reporting the coordinates, but instead spoke directly in Shen Yi's mind.

Shen Yi carefully considered his words, intending to appease Ji Jiushi first.

But before he could speak, Jiji took out an envelope: "This was just delivered to me by the postal robot. I feel it has something to do with He Kan."

This is also why Jiji hurriedly contacted Shen Yi.

If it were simply a matter of withdrawing from the competition, Kujuhime wouldn't be in such a hurry.

Although she was the president of the club He Kan belonged to, she ultimately established the club in order to stay in the college. Therefore, she was always very lenient with Shen Yi and He Kan and never even asked them for club activity fees.

Shen Yi took the envelope from Jiu Shi Ji's hand.

The letter had clearly been opened.

Inside was an invitation.

The grand performance is about to begin.

The stars will be watching this performance.

The background of the invitation features a faint silhouette.

It looks like a person.

But it also resembles a man-made satellite.

The venue for the performance is ————

Yuezhou Beacon Tower.

"A prank," Shen Yi concluded. "How could the Eiffel Tower possibly be hosting any kind of performance?"

He controlled his expression and remained very relaxed.

"Don't worry," he said to Kujuhime with a smile, as if nothing serious had happened. "Nothing serious will happen. Ai just came back from Chihiro's place, and she's perfectly fine."

"Really?" Kujuhime looked at Nangong Ai.

Although Nangong Ai didn't understand what had happened or why A Yi had lied, she still unconditionally chose to help Shen Yi.

"Mm." The girl nodded.

Princess Kuju breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"Oh, by the way," Shen Yi said to Ninety Princess, "Ilovena and the others have already set up the Elf Town. Interested in being the first visitor to Elf Town? Your first night's accommodation is free!"

The appearance of this invitation is very strange.

He Kan was located at the same beacon tower.

From this perspective, the content of the invitation letter is somewhat authentic.

Considering that the invitation was addressed to Kujira, Shen Yi decided to let Kujira stay overnight to avoid her being attacked while he went to investigate.

Kujiro was clearly taken aback by the wide range of topics.

Before she could answer, Shen Yi beckoned Nangong Ai to take Jiu Shi Ji into the fairy world.

Although Nangong Ai still didn't understand, she resolutely carried out Shen Yi's instructions and left with a smile, leading the bewildered Jiu Shi Ji away.

After the two girls left the Starry World, Shen Yi looked at Vera.

"Is there a way to hack into He Kan's guide robot?"

Some of the robot's functions cannot be turned off by ordinary duelists.

For example, the camera and audio recording functions.

In addition to automatically recording duels, the camera and microphone will also automatically collect the duelists' daily data.

The most important information is actually deck information and duel information.

After all, these are all paid services. In order to protect the rights of the deck owners, the behavior of duelists who purchase information and then verbally or in writing it to others must be severely punished.

"I'll give it a try."

Vera nodded.

Shen Yi didn't delay. While Vera was trying to break through He Kan's guiding robot, he took Vera out and headed towards the beacon tower.

On the way, he sent the situation to Thirteen Princess, wanting to see what information he could get from her.

Thirteen Princess replied quickly.

It is an investigation document.

This is a report about the mysterious disappearance of the duelists of the Dream Dance Company.

This report has not been disclosed online yet, and it is even marked as "confidential." It is unknown where Thirteen Princess obtained it.

The mysterious disappearance of the idol duelist is not just a legend.

According to the report, sixteen idol duelists have mysteriously disappeared in the past month, all of whom were signed to Dream Dance Troupe.

Putting everything else aside, there are a lot of daughters in these thousand families.

With sixteen signatories, even if we assume a minimum of 10 cards per follower deck, that's still 160 daughters.

But then I remembered that Princess Kuju had mentioned that her three hundred younger sisters had just been born not long ago.

really----

Having babies like piglets is probably a unique feature of the Starry World.

Then consider that the Nangong family even raised their daughter Xiao Ai to the point of exhaustion; the class barriers in this world are much thicker than I imagined.

While complaining, Shen Yi quickly skimmed through the report.

Without exception, all the missing persons disappeared after losing on the stage of a performance.

The stage where they perform is also very mysterious. Only audience members who have received an invitation can enter and watch. The performance locations are also very strange, such as beacon towers and rocket launch sites, which are places that ordinary people would not enter.

Compared to the missing duelists, the invited audience members are generally unharmed.

They were also direct witnesses to these disappearances.

What is this?

Shen Yi muttered to himself.

Why does it suddenly feel like things are heading in the direction of a ghost story?

But then I thought about it again, and it seems that card duels in this world are inherently evil—at least card duels influenced by the God Cards are quite sinister.

Shen Yi had never imagined that losing a duel would turn him into a paper doll.

After reading the report, Shen Yi saw another message from Thirteen Princess when he exited the interface.

The message was brief, but it made Shen Yi's pupils shrink slightly.

The buildings where the performances were held were all constructed by the Pei family.

What does that mean?

Is this matter even related to the Pei family?

No matter what, Shen Yi couldn't just leave He Kan alone.

Although this guy is a bit unreliable, he's still quite good at dueling. I was even thinking of finding him as a card-playing partner to test the strength of my cards.

With that in mind, Shen Yi simply had Vera carry him toward the beacon tower.

Vera moved quickly, weaving between buildings.

However, Shen Yi did not feel any bumps, after all, the doll's shock absorption performance was also excellent.

On the way to the Beacon Tower with Vera, Shen Yi was still looking through the invitation in his hand.

The invitation stated that the performance would officially begin at midnight.

Given Vera's pace, there should still be enough time.

"Have you broken through?" Shen Yi asked.

"The other party has lost internet access," Vera gave Shen Yi an answer that made his heart sink.

The internet is down —

The network technology in Starry World is incredibly powerful.

Those unmanned equipment can be connected to the network and transmit data in real time throughout the battle in the Soul Card world, not to mention the guiding robots, which are the core devices for data collection.

The fact that the guide robot could be directly disconnected from the internet indicates that the other party is at least extremely skilled in hacking.

I just don't know how good their dueling skills are.

Shen Yi was still thinking when Vera stopped.

"We're here." She pulled open her chest and winked at Shen Yi.

At this moment, they were already on a high platform of the beacon tower.

Looking out, the entire Yuezhou City can be seen.

Neon lights illuminated the city, like an inverted starry sky spread across the earth.

The evening breeze rustled through the iron tower, creating a soft hissing sound.

Apart from the sound of the wind, there was no other sound around; the silence was almost eerie.

Where are there performances?

Shen Yi frowned and looked around, but did not see any trace of the performance.

"Maybe it's just not time yet?" Vera thought for a moment and said.

Shen Yi thought for a moment, and since they were already there, they might as well wait until midnight.

But if that's really the case, then this matter will be related to supernatural powers.

After all, no matter how advanced the technology in the Starry World is, it's not to the point where a theater can be set up instantly.

And the extraordinary power of this world—

The first thing Shen Yi thought of was those God Cards.

After all, many gods were crippled by Mireille after the war in Qizhou.

They, like Kashu, must desperately need a replenishment of their power.

This also explains the many strange things that have happened in the Starry World over the past year.

However, Shen Yi still found it a bit strange.

The Qizhou incident happened a year ago. If this mysterious performance was also the work of the God Cards, then why did these God Cards only begin their actions a year after Qizhou?

And it just so happens that he and Vera traveled through time.

Perhaps bored while waiting, Shen Yi simply sat on the Eiffel Tower and started discussing accounts with Vera.

With the assumption that "all the mysterious events were caused by the God Card restoring its power," Vera quickly searched online for discussions about similar events.

The Dark Duel incidents likely erupted around the time of Shen Yi's entrance exam. Although there were sporadic similar reports before that, they were not as widespread.

Yingluo did explain this point.

After Qizhou, Kashu went into hibernation for about half a year. During that time, she also gained the authority to issue Demon God Cards. After testing for four or five months, Gu Yu made the decision to start large-scale "promotion".

The mysterious performance incident began a month ago.

Vera quickly compiled a list of similar mysterious events online, and then drew a line based on the time Shen Yi and she traveled through time.

"Huh? It seems like there are a lot more mysterious events in this world since we transmigrated here," Vera said, her eyes wide. "Could it be that we've interfered with this world?"

Shen Yi's lips twitched slightly.

Judging from Yingluo's testimony, regardless of whether they traveled through time or not, the gods would definitely become active in order to regain their power.

However, it must be admitted that there must be some reason behind such a concentrated outburst from either himself or Vera.

It's probably Vera's constitution.

Shen Yi was already certain that Vera's constitution was somewhat remarkable.

Whether it's the boost to card forging probability or good luck in other areas, her strength, while not as great as her sisters Lulus and Mirail, is definitely not weak in terms of support abilities.

Thinking this, Shen Yi took out Lulu's card.

"Huh? This is such a small matter—is it really appropriate to ask Lulus for help?" Vera blinked and said, thinking that Shen Yi was going to ask Lulus to come and help.

"It's not that bad," Shen Yi said with a smile.

He just wanted to confirm whether Lulus's card was still usable.

He could clearly feel the pressure.

Whether it's Mireille's mission or collecting the power of the God Cards, he needs more powerful cards to assist him.

Judging from Vera's description, Lulus is clearly more powerful than the gods in the God Cards. If she could actually use her in a duel, she might unleash incredible power—even if it was weakened.

As Shen Yi was thinking, Vera suddenly said, "It's twelve o'clock."

As she finished speaking, ripples began to appear around her.

"There's a spatial fluctuation." Vera grabbed Shen Yi's right hand.

The next second, the invitation in Shen Yi's hand emitted light, and then transformed into countless points of light at a speed visible to the naked eye.

These points of light gathered and pieced together around us.

Suddenly, a light and shadow similar to that on the invitation appeared before Shen Yi's eyes.

Shen Yi felt a moment of dizziness, and then heard other people exclaiming in surprise.

But when he opened his eyes again, he found himself on an open-air grandstand, with a dazzling starry sky above him.

Looking around, I found the audience seats were full of people.

Judging from their panicked expressions, they were clearly also forcibly dragged in by the invitation.

"Where are we now?" Shen Yi asked Vera softly.

In his dazed state, Shen Yi clearly felt a pulling sensation in the space.

Moreover, this pulling is clearly only directed at oneself.

Vera is probably not among those "invited".

However, the doll girl grabbed Shen Yi's hand and forcibly sneaked in without a ticket.

Vera hugged Shen Yi's arm: "Judging from the location, it is indeed on the beacon tower. It should be a separate space."

As she spoke, Vera looked at the starry sky and said softly, "There's something strange about this starry sky. Something is watching us."

As soon as she finished speaking, a figure appeared on the stage.

"Dear audience! Welcome to the Starlight Theater of Talos!"

"Tonight, the stars of the Dream Dance Company will bring you the most spectacular performance."

"Oh, right!"

"After the performance, we will randomly select one lucky audience member to go on stage and have a performance match with their chosen idol!"

Upon hearing the host's words, Shen Yi immediately narrowed his eyes.

Talos —

Talos, Lord of the Stars!
