Chapter 327: Living Too Far Away
Yuei Vu finished his lunch unhurriedly, and even digested and brewed for a while if it wasnt because he just woke up not long ago, he might even consider taking a nap and then set off for Kaiba Corp.
Before that, he even had time to open the system card pool.
The large-scale main storyline of the Waking the Dragons arc was over, and generally speaking, all players have reaped a lot of benefits.
However, the more benefits the players get, the more Yuei Vu would earn.
After all, the wool still has to be gathered from the sheep. If the sheep has no wool, no matter how good the wool-cutting technique was, it would be useless.
Looking at the pile of crystals in the inventory, Yuei Vu felt that he could open packs until his hands were cramping
Maybe its because today was an auspicious day, which was suitable for opening packs. Yuei Vu felt that the probability of success today seemed to be much higher than usual. Its amazing that an average of 10,000 stones could produce something that can be used
Immediately afterward, with a burst of golden light in the system, a special effect like a vision of heaven and earth, a card was spat out from the card pool in a whirl, accompanied by a special effect of USR representing the highest rarity
The Sky Hero!
Yuei Vus eyes straightened instantly.
OMG!
Happiness came so suddenly that people had no defense at all.
[Elemental HERO Stratos, Level 4, ATK 1800, DEF 300.
Effect: When this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can activate 1 of these effects. You can 1 HERO monster from your Deck to your hand; or destroy Spells/Traps on the field, up to the number of HERO monsters you control, except this card.]
Simple but powerful effects, it played a vital pivotal role in any HERO deck.
This wave felt like a big step closer to becoming a real hero!
Or looking at it the other way around, it could also be said that going further and further down this road with no way to turn back
After opening the card pack, Yuei Vu was finally ready to leave for Kaiba Corp to report.
He didnt return to Tongshiye until after three oclock in the morning, but the president told him to go back to report before 7 oclock the next morning. If he really listened to the presidents words honestly, he was afraid that he may die suddenly due to overwork.
It didnt matter, anyway, the president didnt have anything urgent to look for him nowthe most urgent thing was probably to help the president to relieve his irresistible card addiction.
But Yuei Vu reckoned that he probably wouldnt for a while.
After the troubles caused by Doma, Kaiba Corphas experienced a large-scale loss of control of the stereoscopic image system, and the company was almost taken over by hostile disasters. At this time, its reputation has fallen to the bottom since Seto Kaiba took over.
In addition, the construction of Kaiba Land has already reached the most important juncture, and now the president was determined to temporarily retire from the dueling world, quit the card addiction, and go all out to build and save the companys reputation.
Although I dont know how long the president can last this time, at least he wont be able to grab me to play cards the next day, right?
Yuei Vu, who was late for more than six hours, came to the presidents office slowly and met Kaibas gloomy face as expected.
Youre late. He said coldly.
Yes. Yuei Vu nodded, with an expression of So what?.
The companys rules and regulations clearly state that being late is not allowed in my dictionary, Kaiba said in a deep voice.
The president pretended to be like that, and his voice sounded very oppressive and scary. However, Yuei Vu waited patiently for a long time, but he didnt wait until the words favorability down appeared on the top of the presidents head
This made him sigh helplessly.
Can you at least decrease it a bit? Several points are enough
He really didnt know what to do now to stop the Presidents growing favorability
Then Mokuba, who didnt realize that his brother was fake angry, tried to speak up for Yuei Vu: Brother! Yuei Vu has contributed a lot to the battle with Doma before. He must be very tired when he comes back in the early morning. Its normal to be late
What he didnt speak was: Brother, without him, your soul is still in the belly of the evil god right now
If it werent for Yuei Vu, the two brothers, and even the company would have disappeared. Whats the big deal of a little late?
Of course, Mokuba did not dare to say this.
Yuei Vu coughed and said without blushing, Im sorry, President. Because I live too far from the company, theres a traffic jam on the road, so theres nothing I can do.
The president narrowed his eyes: You still live in that store?
Yes, yes. Yuei Vu spread his hands helplessly. I cant help it, life is hard. Why dont you buy me a house closer to the company?
Anyway, the presidents favorability couldnt be dropped as if its locked, so someone was frantically testing on the verge of death.
To be honest, the lie was so blatant that even Yuei Vu himself couldnt believe it.
Not to mention the prize money he won for winning the duel city championship, his worth, and commercial benefits as the Duel King was a huge sum of money too. If he wanted to move out, he would have moved out long ago.
Its just that Yuei Vu didnt think about it. The Dream Card shop has become his stronghold for cutting leeks, which was convenient for trading with players and releasing missions. It would be troublesome to open it in another place.
As for living too far away? Traffic jam on the road?
No matter how far away he lived, even if he was driving an ox cart, he couldnt be six hours late
However, he never expected that after hearing his words, President Kaiba thought for a moment, then turned his head and said to Mokuba: There is a manor in Daimon Area. I remember that the boss of Ushijima Finance intends to sell it, right?
Yuei Vu: ?
Mokuba was taken aback for a moment, and immediately tapped the keyboard and began to search for information: Ah? Thats right.
It shouldnt be far from the companys headquarters?
The distance is about 1.4 kilometers, not far away.
Okay, tell him we will buy it. President Kaiba glanced at Yuei Vu, You should be able to move there within two days. Its not far from the company.
Yuei Vu: ???
What? President, wait a minute, I didnt mean that
Dont get me wrong. Of course, the president didnt forget his standard sentence pattern, and he still said in that cold tone, I decided to buy this manor a long time ago, but I cant use it for the time being
Yuei Vu:
Yuei Vus current mood is probably
Im so surprised, is this the happiness of rich people?
Sure enough, poverty limits my imagination.
Local tycoon! Are you still missing pendants on your thighs?
Oh, Im already on the thigh of the local tycoon? Then nevermind
The president didnt give him a chance to justify or refute at all, and the conversation changed to the main topic and started talking about business.
Unexpectedly, the president didnt really mention the trouble of playing cards today, but really talked to him about some matters and plans of the company in the field of dueling monsters.
He didnt hide anything from Yuei Vu and Mokuba, and told him straight to the point, saying that the companys current situation was really bad. The successive blows have caused the companys reputation and stock to plummet. It was not an exaggeration to say that it is a critical juncture.
But at the same time, Kaiba and Mokubaeven other people in the industryare actually quite optimistic about Kaiba Corps prospects.
Dartz made such a presentation all over the world, which really shocked many people. The existence of Duel Monster, which was already popular all over the world, has further entered more fields and more peoples vision-but this time it was not just a card game.
Duel monster spirits were real, and more and more people were starting to realize it. Whats even more frightening was that not only that, but this kind of existence seemed to contain a supernatural power that surpassed all the military strength of mankind today and was capable of destroying the world.
It is said that after experiencing the embarrassment of being helpless in the Doma incident, all major countries have now begun to step up the excavation of cultural relics, trying to find products with mysterious power left by the ancients in their respective fields.
Just a while ago, news spread in the underground world that Peruvian officials seemed to have unearthed the suspected god remains. Although there was no official source of information, it was said that what appears to be a stone tablet with Nazca Lines drawn on it is said to have been excavated.
Immediately afterward, rumors came from the Nordic countries, saying that stone slabs with paintings of Odin, the father of the gods, Thor, the god of thunder, and Loki, the god of tricks, were dug up. But it is also just a rumor circulating in the underground world, not necessarily true.
Then there has been a lot of movement in the upper class recently. After this Doma incident, the top leaders of many countries realized how vulnerable the elite and hot weapons in their hands were to supernatural forces, so now many countries were conducting corresponding reflections and wanted to establish targeted responses in related fields department.
Thats right, to put it bluntly, it was the Dueling Department, which specialized in recruiting duelists in their respective countries and regions, as the backbone to prevent similar crises from happening next time
Affected by this chain of events, duelists were getting more and more attention, and the influence of Duel Monster was also getting bigger and bigger.
Under such a prospect, as long as the opportunity was seized, Kaiba Corp, which was the backbone of the dueling industry, would naturally be able to flourish.
After Kaiba and Mokuba analyzed so much, Yuei Vu understood it. However
I understand the truth, but why are you telling me these things?
Yuei Vu half-jokingly complained: President, do you still remember who the manager of your Duel Monster department is? I wonder if you havent told him much about it
As soon as Yuei Vu said the words, he immediately realized that something was wrong, and quickly shut up.
Sure enough, President Kaiba fell into a brief moment of contemplation, and then slowly said: Its true. Then its better to let you be the manager of that department from today on.
Yuei Vu: I
