Who let him play Yu-Gi-Oh!

"Welcome to the link system."

"Counting down, 5, 4, 3"

Yugi Judai closed his eyes and instinctively put his hands in front of him.

It was an unreal feeling as if one had escaped from the constraints of reality, as if an invisible force was pulling the body forward. Reality and illusion became difficult to distinguish for a moment, and the body seemed to be floating in the clouds, as if it had become a part of this endless data and was drifting with the flow.

The data stream poured out like the Milky Way, shuttling and interweaving at an unimaginable speed. After walking for an unknown distance along the intricate and gorgeous passage, he finally felt his butt fall heavily on solid ground.

"It hurts, it hurts"

Judai covered his buttocks, feeling a little dizzy. He barely stood up and turned to look at You Xuan beside him. He saw that You Xuan, who had clearly come in with him, had landed on his knees and was now standing up calmly.

"How did you land so smoothly?"

You Xuan smiled and stretched out his hand to pull him up: "There is a trick. You will get used to it after doing it a few times."

Judai smiled and took his hand to stand up. They both stood up and looked around.

They found themselves in an endless expanse of land. Although it was vast and boundless, it also seemed quite lonely and desolate. It was as if time had stopped here.

The Silent Magician floated out silently, pointing his staff somewhere.

"Over there? Thanks."

You Xuan nodded and immediately started walking in that direction.

Judai immediately followed and asked, "Is this the spirit world?"

After all, he and You Xuan had had a trip to the elf world before, and now he was not very unfamiliar with the existence of this alien continent.

"yes."

"Ohhhh, the world where duel monsters live!"

Judai was quite excited.

"After the last time, I have been wondering when I can come again. You Xuan, you can come whenever you want. I am so envious!"

"But it's a little different from the last time we went."

You Xuan smiled, but didn't say more about this.

He explored the spirit world several times and drew maps of all the places he had been to so far. After integrating the maps of the places he had explored, You Xuan finally found this specific dimension.

This isn't just any elven dimension.

This is one of the twelve dimensions that Judai and his companions came to in the later GX alternate dimension chapter to rescue John. It is an area dominated by the legendary "Overlord".

This is also part of the reason why You Xuan brought the tenth generation here this time.

During the battle with the Judge, the Judge reminded him of this. The Overlord might not have been sleeping in the body of the Tenth Generation, but was just connected in some form.

The real overlord may have already been in this elf world and is the supreme king who dominates this twelve-dimensional world.

But even so, the connection with the Overlord is still a time bomb buried in Judai's body. And You Xuan also vaguely felt that something in Judai's body seemed to have been triggered after the last battle with the Judge.

It seemed that although the Judge had not taken his soul on purpose in that duel, the duel had opened a switch in his heart. The seal of the Overlord hidden in his heart was partially loosened, and although there was no obvious abnormality for the time being, it was possible that something might happen if it was impacted by some external force.

Especially the upcoming battle with Qixing. Although Youxuan intends to take the initiative, Judai may still have to face a lot of dark duels. The life-and-death moment of the dark duel may affect his psychological defenses, causing the Overlord to occupy his body in advance.

However, You Xuan already had an idea about this.

With the help of the link system, they came to the spirit world in a similar way to consciousness projection, just like the duel monster spirits that usually appear in reality as spirit projections. Even if they are destroyed, they just return to their own reality. In other words, they are safe in this world.

Then you might as well use the link system to proactively deal with the time bomb before it is accidentally detonated.

You Xuan wants to find Overlord.

Defeating the Overlord will most likely solve this hidden danger, and there is also a chance that he can help Judai absorb the Overlord's power in advance and speed up the leveling process.

Moreover, if they take the initiative to attack, they can make full preparations for the battle in advance, which will undoubtedly increase their chances of winning than if the overlord suddenly appears in the future and catches them off guard.

"By the way, You Xuan said there was something important. What is it?"

Judai asked as he walked.

"It's not a test you have to complete." You Xuan said, "If everything goes well, maybe you can pass it early."

"My trial?"

Judai was very surprised and looked around.

"In this world?"

"Anyone who wants to become a great duelist will have to face the darkness in his heart sooner or later." You Xuan said, "If you can't overcome the darkness in your heart, you can't reach your peak."

“There is no darkness in my heart.”

Judai said with a smile.

"Is that really the case?"

You Xuan smiled and looked at him with a hint of mystery.

Judai felt a little weird when he was looked at like this: "What are you doing?"

"nothing."

You Xuan withdrew his gaze and smiled.

Judai thought about it and suddenly couldn't help asking: "You Xuan is already a top-notch duelist, but what is the darkness in your heart?"

You Xuan kept silent.

The two of them saw a barren landscape with no signs of life. After walking for a while, they finally saw a town in front of them.

But when we got closer, we saw that the town was also in ruins and desolate. The ancient architectural style was just like that of thousands of years ago, with simple stone structures. The wind blew through the desolate and empty streets, but there was no one in sight.

"Is this the elf town?"

Judai walked forward and looked around curiously.

"But there's no one here. Is it abandoned?"

"Curi Curry."

The Winged Chestnut Ball suddenly floated out, flapping its wings and pointing to the side with its short hands. Judai looked in the direction indicated by the elf, and sure enough, he saw a short figure who seemed to be secretly looking at the two of them through a stone house, but when he noticed his gaze, he suddenly shuddered and hurriedly turned around and ran away.

"Hey, wait!"

Judai hurried forward and started chasing after it. He chased the short shadow through several alleys and suddenly heard a scream around the corner.

Judai ran over and saw a little girl lying on the ground. She had blonde hair and a dirty long skirt with patches on it. She was lying on the ground in fear and helplessness.

In front of her was a burly monster, crouching on the wall like a scorpion, slowly coming down, with malicious eyes, as if drooling.

"Ha, there is such a tender girl. Looks like I am lucky today."

The scorpion-like monster jumped down from the wall and chuckled.

The girl sat on the ground and stepped back in fear. She wanted to get up and run away, but her legs seemed paralyzed by fear and she couldn't get up because of the trembling.

Judai didn't ask about the situation, he just took the lead and stepped forward when he saw this scene.

"Hey, stop it!"

He opened his arms and stood in front of the girl.

"Um?"

The giant scorpion was stunned for a moment, then its gaze quickly fell on the duel disk in his hand.

Scorpion's eyes immediately showed fighting intent.

"Duelist? Here?"
