Chapter 160: Searching for the last seven stars!

"You mean... Daitokuji-sensei is the culprit who pushed you into the dark world?"

In the infirmary, everyone was extremely shocked after hearing such shocking news from Tenshoin Fubuki.

"How could it be... Master Daitokuji..."

"No, that's not what I meant."

Tenjouin Fubuki shook her head and corrected him:

"The professor only recommended that I go to the old dormitory of the academy for a special course, but during a test, I received a strange call and was brought into a dark world..."

Mentioning this painful memory, Fubuki couldn't help but clench her fists, and even the muscles on her face couldn't help but twitch:

"There...there are many corrupted duelists there. All of them are like slaves, and they have to undergo unimaginable training every day..."

...

"Where on earth did you go?"

After bidding farewell to Fubuki, Judai and his group arrived at the dormitory building of Daitoku-ji Temple, but the deserted scene showed that the other party was no longer there.

"No...I don't believe the teacher would do that!"

Judai, holding onto the dormitory railing tightly with his right hand, still refused to believe the possible truth.

"Calm down, Judai."

Misawa patted him on the back.

"Perhaps someone is impersonating the professor. The most urgent task now is to find Daitokuji himself. As long as we confront him face to face, I believe the truth will come out!"

"Gurgle~Gurgle~Gurgle~"

While others were still worried about their own thoughts, Wanzhangmu, holding a cat toy in his hand, was already wandering around.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Manjomu's strange behavior immediately caught Judai's attention.

"Does this need to be said?"

A look of contempt cast upon him:

"That guy from Daitokuji Temple has always been inseparable from the Pharaoh. If we just find that fat orange cat, wouldn't that be indirectly finding Daitokuji Temple?"

"Uh...yes."

After listening to Manjomu's logical speech, Judai, who was in a state of anxiety, suddenly showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.

"In this case..."

Judai brought a bunch of cat teasers and distributed them to everyone:

"Come on, let's find the 'Pharaoh' together!"

"Is this...really reliable..."

After fiddling with the cat toy handed to him by Judai, Misawa still felt something was strange.

"Let's give it a try. There's no better way for now."

Asuka, who had been silent all the time, also picked up a cat toy. Now, she wanted to find the trace of Daitoku-ji Temple more than anyone else.

...

"Daitokuji-sensei!"

"professor!"

"Gurgle~Gurgle~Gurgle~"

"Pharaoh!"

"Look, here's a beautiful Persian cat!"

The shouts of the crowd echoed over the campus, and the distance between them gradually grew farther and farther.

"Phew, it's totally useless."

Judai, who had already reached a rugged mountain road, wiped the sweat from his head and threw the cat toy aside.

"what!?"

As soon as he sat down, Judai heard a noise coming from the jungle not far away. Soon, a man in black appeared in front of Judai.

"Want to know the whereabouts of Daitoku-ji Temple?"

The opponent raised the duel disk in his hand, the meaning was self-evident.

...

Three minutes later, Judai put away the Duel Disk and looked at his opponent who was kneeling on the ground:

"Well, now you should fulfill your promise."

"Hmph, if you have the guts, come and follow me!"

The man in black struggled to stand up from the ground, uttered some harsh words with fear on his face, and immediately ran through the jungle.

"Hey!"

Judai quickly chased after him, but after just a few turns, he completely lost track of the other party.

"Meow!"

At this moment, the 'Pharaoh' who had been searching for the whole day suddenly appeared in front of Judai.

A deep green light also appeared in the dense woods around, floating and flickering continuously, as if guiding and urging Judai to move forward.

"What on earth is going on..."

This strange scene made Judai quickly use the communication equipment to contact other people:

"I was attacked by an unknown person..."

“I also have…”

“I’m here too…”

"What, you all have it? Damn it, I thought this kind of thing would only happen to me, a handsome guy..."

Wanzhangmu's voice was the last to appear on the communicator:

"But I recommended the Type VI robot to that guy, and they are having a passionate battle right now."

"..."

"Anyway, everyone, please be careful."

After being cut off from all contact, Judai decided to keep going. An intuition in his heart told him that he was not far from the truth.

...

About half an hour later, Judai, who was carrying the 'Pharaoh' through the dense forest, finally arrived in front of a dilapidated villa.

"Is this where they want me to go..."

"Meow!"

Before he could think about what to do next, the 'Pharaoh' in his arms suddenly broke free from Juudai's restraints and broke in.

"Hey, stop running around."

This sudden scene made Judai hurriedly follow and step into the dilapidated house.

“There’s actually a road underneath?”

After watching the 'Pharaoh' enter a tunnel deep within the basement, Judai couldn't help but sigh:

"It feels like I'm about to face a hidden boss."

Despite this, Judai walked in unwaveringly.

Fortunately, no accidents occurred while passing through the tunnel. After about a few minutes, he arrived safely at the other side of the tunnel.

A wide cave appeared in front of Judai. The central part of the cave consisted of a circular shallow pit with a diameter of 20 meters, and there were scattered instruments around it.

With the dim light emitted by the Duel Disk, Judai could barely make out the objects around him.

"Are these alchemical instruments?"

Judai looked at everything in front of him in confusion:

"But why are there so many alchemical instruments here?"

After stepping across the shallow circular pit, Judai quickly noticed an even more unusual object:

"Coffin!? Why is there a coffin here..."

Although he was a little scared, Judai still looked over in order to find out the truth.

The corpse in question had shriveled up due to lack of water, but features such as the metal half-frame glasses, the loose white shirt, and the dark red tie all hinted at this person's identity.

"impossible..."

Judai's pupils suddenly shrank, and in disbelief, he immediately lifted up the work badge on his white shirt with trembling hands.

The name on the work badge was the one he spent every day with - Professor Daitokuji!

Chapter 161: Armnile's Alchemy

"Welcome to my lab, Yugi Judai~!"

Just when Judai was finding it hard to accept, the lights in the cave suddenly lit up, and a slightly frivolous voice echoed in the silent space.

"Who is there?"

Following the source of the sound, Judai turned his head and saw a tall figure appear on the opposite side.

The other person's body was completely wrapped in a gray robe, and he wore a black mask on his face. His attire made him look like an alchemist from a foreign country.

"You are... the last seven stars!?"

Judai used a tentative tone to cautiously ask the mysterious man who suddenly appeared.

"That's right, I am the last of the Seven Stars - Armnile!"

The mysterious man's voice sounded a little evil. As he spoke, he took out a thick book from his arms. The surface of the book was covered with dark golden textures, and in the center was a huge relief of the Eye of Truth.

"Look, this is my dark prop—Grandmother's Book of Darkness."

"So, Daitokuji-sensei, you're the one who turned you into this!"

Judai stared at the object in the other party's hand and asked in a loud voice.

"No, unfortunately, that's not the case."

Armnile shook his head and denied it.

"The mummy was originally placed in this laboratory. Below is as above, above is as below. All things in the world are one..."

After saying this, Armnile simply held up the Grandmother's Book of Darkness in his hand and spoke in a slightly boastful tone:

"Judai, if you truly want to know all this, then accept my trial before this ultimate tool, the Grandmother's Book of Darkness, which contains the secrets of the world and is only possessed by the strongest alchemist!"

"Will I know the truth if I win the duel?"

After putting on the Duel Disk, Judai took a step forward:

"Then I will take this victory!"

...

"Duel!"*2!

After each player drew five cards, Armnile took the lead and asked a question:

"Yujo Judai, I'm curious what you think of alchemists."

Before Judai could react, he drew the sixth card from the top of his deck:

"I'll attack first and activate the continuous magic [Alchemical Cauldron - Chaos Distillation]."
