Hey! Let's play cards

What! What! What! What is this!

Chu Qingchen immediately felt like he had been cheated.

"Sure enough! Just as Senior Xiao said, no one can be trusted in Black Gold City." Chu Qingchen walked out of the supermarket disappointedly.

"Oh! I wasted so much money." Chu Qingchen lowered his head and suddenly remembered that he seemed to have not paid for the cards yet.

Although they are three junk cards, they are cards after all and are still worth some price.

Chu Qingchen is not a person who is greedy for small profits, but if the old man offers too high a price, it will be suspected that he is deliberately defrauding him. Chu Qingchen will not do that and be deceived.

Just when Chu Qingchen looked up, he found that he had already exited the alley.

"Huh? I haven't even taken a few steps!" Chu Qingchen turned back immediately, but the scene in front of him made him horrified.

There was no supermarket at all, only a bare stone wall in front.

"How is this possible?" Chu Qingchen came to the stone wall and smashed it hard. Judging from the echo, it was definitely solid.

Chu Qingchen was still unwilling to give up, so he mobilized the strength in his body and probed inside.

Five meters, ten meters, fifteen meters, there is no other space except the stones.

"It's broad daylight, am I seeing a ghost?" Chu Qingchen touched the cards in his hand and the bag full of food in one hand. All this proved that what happened just now was not an illusion.

"Let's go back quickly!" Chu Qingchen began to wonder in his heart, could it be that he really encountered a ghost?

Chu Qingchen put the three cards into his pocket, quickened his pace, and wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.

After walking quickly for a distance, a short figure suddenly jumped out from a corner.

She was a dirty little girl, about seven or eight years old, with messy hair, dry and yellow skin, wearing a linen dress with holes, and obvious bruises on her hands and feet.

When the little girl saw Chu Qingchen, she ran towards him with her eyes shining as if she had seen a savior.

"Save me! Save me!" The girl cried at the top of her lungs, with a bit of pain and a bit of hope.

Chapter 286 Sinister

Although Chu Qingchen didn't know what was going on, he subconsciously pulled the little girl behind him.

In the corner, hurried footsteps were heard, and almost immediately after the little girl appeared, several men who looked like bad guys with insect tattoos on their arms came in front of Chu Qingchen.

"Hey! Kid, get out of the way!" One of the men with a green Mogan haircut said bluntly.

Chu Qingchen looked back at the little girl, then turned around and said, "What if I say... no?"

The Mohawk man took out a switchblade and threatened viciously: "Then you will regret it in hell!"

The corners of Chu Qingchen's mouth rose slightly. He would be able to handle even ten more of these people.

"Why waste your words? I won't..." Before Chu Qingchen could finish his words, he felt a sharp pain in his thigh.

Looking down, he saw the little girl holding a syringe and stabbing Chu Qingchen's thigh with it.

"You..." Before Chu Qingchen could react, the colorless liquid was injected into his body.

Chu Qingchen suddenly felt dizzy and his steps became unsteady.

Everything in front of me was being pulled and twisted at random, becoming extremely weird.

The last image that Chu Qingchen saw before he fainted was the triumphant smiles on the men’s faces.

"It is indeed a good thing. Not only can it knock down the duelist, it can also temporarily suppress the power in the body."

The man with green Mohawk stomped on Chu Qingchen twice and reached out to take the card box from his waist.

“This time the harvest is not small!”

The others carried Chu Qingchen on their shoulders and left through the passage in the corner.

"Yes...I'm sorry!" The little girl lowered her head, apologized silently, and followed the group of people into the corridor.

The actions of these men were seen by the others.

"Look! I told you that kid would fall for it. Come on! Give me money, give me money!"

"What a naive boy, he actually dares to trust others."

"He's just courting death! Once they catch him, that kid is done for."

Bystanders joked about the situation, but no one wanted to help.

This kind of thing always happens here.

Even though Chu Qingchen was very careful, unfortunately he lacked experience and was still successfully tricked.

……

On the other hand, in the desert, the academy team is gradually approaching the Black Gold City.

"Have we taken the wrong path again?" Su Yue looked at the indescribable map in his hand and couldn't help but complain about Xiao Longtian's painting skills in his heart.

Xia Qingrou came over to take a look and said uncertainly: "From the map, it should be nearby."

The complex geographical environment near Black Gold City caused the team to successfully get lost.

They had been wandering around here for a long time and encountered various traps along the way. Fortunately, they were strong enough to deal with them, and apart from causing some obstructions, no one was injured.

In the end, it was with the power of the witches, flying into the air and scouting the terrain, that everyone found the exact path.

"I hope we can find Black Gold City before sunset!" Xia Qingrou panted heavily, her face pale, and it was obvious that she was not in good condition.

Xia Qingrou has not yet recovered from yesterday's dark duel, and now she is just barely able to move again.

"It should be fine, but where is the final entrance?" Su Yue was a little distressed.

Xia Qingrou looked at the map, her expression suddenly changed, and she said solemnly: "Wait a minute! Something is coming quickly."

Everyone followed Xia Qingrou's gaze and looked in one direction, but it was calm and there was nothing to be found.

Waited for a minute

The team still didn't wait for anything. They all thought that Xia Qingrou had made a mistake.

Su Yue had some doubts in his heart, but out of trust in Xia Qingrou, he was willing to wait a little longer.

Xia Qingrou closed her eyes and quietly felt the breath in the distance.

After experiencing the trial of the fallen angel, Xia Qingrou's strength has increased a lot, especially her perception ability has been greatly improved.

"One, two, three... four!"

In Xia Qingrou's mind, three black spots of light were getting closer.

And behind the black spot, a ball of light as dazzling as the sun was also approaching rapidly.

"Who exactly is this..." Xia Qingrou didn't know whether it was an enemy or a friend, and calculated the distance in her mind.

"1000 meters, 800 meters, 500 meters, 100 meters... Here it comes!" Xia Qingrou suddenly opened her eyes.

At this distance, without Xia Qingrou's deliberate reminder, everyone saw three men in black robes flying towards them.

"It's a dark duelist! Be careful everyone." Someone in the team shouted, and everyone immediately prepared for battle.

The dark duelist came above everyone's heads and slowly descended.

“I didn’t expect there were several desserts here, perfect as an appetizer.”

"I hope you can give me some fun!"

"Don't let us down!"

The three dark duelists did not take everyone seriously. Except for the beautiful flat-chested girl, one person was enough to deal with the rest of the students.

"Trouble!"

Xia Qingrou has not recovered yet, and relying on Su Yue and the other students, they may not be able to defeat the three dark duelists.

"Come on if you have the guts!" Su Yue took a step forward and stood in front of the students.

"What? Leave it to me!"

"Alas! How can I give such a high-end dessert to you alone?"

"I am still the most suitable one. I will definitely take good care of her."

The three dark duelists argued with each other, and all wanted to duel with Su Yue.

Su Yue felt a lot of pressure. These three dark duelists were not easy to deal with. Su Yue didn't think he could win against one of them alone.

But now, there are three such dark duelists.

The team was in crisis again.

No one tried to escape; they all knew it was impossible.

The only way to break out now is to fight your way out, or leave someone to hold back the dark duelist.

Xia Qingrou and Su Yue stood side by side, unfolding the duel disk in their hands.

"No! Xia, you are in no condition to participate in a duel."

Xia Qingrou stopped Su Yue and said, "It's not a big deal now. If I don't take action at this time, the situation will obviously be unfavorable to us."

"But..." Su Yue couldn't continue, after all, this was indeed the fact.

The Dark Duelists were finally assigned.

A dark duelist with patterns on his face chose Su Yue.

Another dark duelist with a long face chose Xia Qingrou.

The last dark duelist, who had pockmarks all over his face and looked ugly, chose the remaining students.

"Don't forget to compensate me." The pockmarked duelist was a little unhappy, as if he was still a little dissatisfied with the distribution.

"Got it! Got it! Let's get started quickly! I can't wait any longer." The Patterned Duelist looked at Su Yue excitedly.

Among all the students, Xia Qingrou has not yet recovered, and the strength of the other fighters is not as good as Su Yue.

The Pattern Duelist was already excited at the thought of being able to cook the best ingredients among his opponents.

Just as a chaotic fight was about to begin, it was interrupted by an uninvited guest.
