Yu-Gi-Oh!, the Roar of the Weak

Chapter 47 The Six-Pointed Star Family

Two high-pressure water jets converged on the Great Roc Phoenix - Eternal Flame, instantly shattering it.

ATK: -1500 = 8500

The 8500 damage to his health points knocked Xiao Yi back, reducing his health to zero. He staggered back several meters before regaining his footing. Because the two had set the simulated damage level very low, Xiao Yi's body did not suffer any significant harm.

"Boss Ace, that move was so cool!" Xiao Yi, who had lost the match, didn't even flinch, but excitedly shouted, "That was so awesome! Even though it was a fire truck, it was still so cool! When did you get the [Restriction Removal]?"

"Last night, 'Xianguangguang,' the largest private trading platform in Dulun, listed one. There were so many people wanting to buy it that the network even crashed. Luckily, I'm a computer genius, and it took a lot of effort to finally snag it for my brother. It was a great bargain; it only cost him two months' salary!" Ai Xiao skipped over to her older brother.

"That's a real steal!" Xiao Yi exclaimed.

"Two months' salary? And you made a profit? What are you talking about?" Di Xing was dumbfounded. Wasn't the price of this World Card a bit outrageous?

"Of course we made a profit! The [Restriction Lift] card is usually worth four or five times the price of the same weight of gold!"

"Holy crap, so expensive!" Di Xing suddenly realized that the people of Muwu Dulun might not be avoiding the theme song not because they disliked it, but because they were poor. Although he didn't know how much Teacher J earned, if he came to Muwu Dulun, the lyrics might have to be changed to "Today the campfire price is high again, I can only buy half a ticket with tears in my eyes..."

At this moment, Ace seemed to realize that Ai Xiao was wearing Di Xing's cloak, and his gaze immediately turned dangerous.

"No, brother, this really isn't my fault," Di Xing cried out in his heart, "It's all your fault!"

Fortunately, Ace didn't react. Instead, he asked Ai Xiao what had happened. Ai Xiao whispered the reason in his ear, and Ace looked somewhat guilty. Just as he was about to say something to Di Xing, a familiar voice came from behind him.

"It's so lively here!" The newcomer was Mingzai, who was dragging a person handcuffed behind their back as they walked over. The residents waved happily to Mingzai, who nodded in return. Then he looked at Ace and greeted him warmly.

"Well done, Ace. The fire on the entire fourth floor has been extinguished. On behalf of the residents of the fourth floor, I express my gratitude to you."

Ace laughed and scolded, "Why are you being so serious? Should I tell you that this is what I should do?"

Then the two of them burst into laughter, and the room erupted in cheerful laughter. Suddenly, Ming looked at Di Xing and asked, "Who is this young man?" He felt that Di Xing looked familiar, and his gaze sharpened.

“Him?” Ace put his arm around Di Xing’s shoulder. “He’s a friend I just met recently. This guy is incredibly brave. He saved Ah Xiao yesterday, and just now he risked his life to enter Power Plant No. 6 and rescued a child. I’m even thinking of recruiting him into our fire brigade.”

Upon hearing this, Ming bowed sincerely to Di Xing and said "Thank you," but the doubt in his eyes did not disappear. "Have we met somewhere before?"

"No, no, it must be your imagination," Di Xing said guiltily.

"Um, that..." Di Xing was about to change the subject, asking, "Officer Ming, who is this person who was arrested?" when the memory of being dragged to watch 1000—no, 100—my friend suddenly flashed into his mind.

"Grandpa, the cream cake is so delicious!"

No, that's not it.

How did you know I have the complete XXX collection?

It's not this one either.

"How do you know my name?" That's right, that's it. Neither Mingzai nor anyone else present had called him by name or mentioned his profession. They all greeted each other with their hands. Thinking of this, Di Xing broke out in a cold sweat.

"Um, may I ask what crime this person who was arrested committed?"

Ming scrutinized Di Xing, but still answered, "He attempted to sabotage Power Plant No. 6."

"Don't make false accusations, I was just passing by," the person who was caught cursed.

"Ha, do the Wolf family dare to do it but not admit it?"

The man's expression changed drastically, and he asked sharply, "What nonsense are you spouting?"

Ming rolled up his sleeve and saw a red mark on the man's forearm, starting from the inside of his elbow and winding towards his wrist, already about halfway down.

"Ascension Rope, such a high-level drug, it's not available on the fourth level, it's only found on the second level, right?"

"What kind of drug? Why make it sound so nasty? This is a drug used by the Special City Guard to enhance the power of spirits during combat. I'm a retired veteran of the Special City Guard, so it's normal for me to have used this drug. Is it wrong for someone from the second level to come to the fourth level for tourism?"

"Ha, let's not even talk about what you're doing on the fourth floor. Why are you circling around Power Plant No. 6?"

"Is it wrong for me to be curious about power plants?"

"Then why are you only looking at this No. 6 power plant? The surrounding residents saw you loitering around here yesterday. The No. 6 power plant is much smaller than the previous five. After all, the previous five are all owned by the Wolf family. The electricity is supplied to the upper levels, and the lower levels have to pay exorbitant prices to use their electricity. So they gave you the order to sabotage this No. 6 power plant, so that the residents on the fourth level will have to buy electricity at exorbitant prices."

"You have no evidence," the man said calmly.

Suddenly, Di Xing sensed a familiar aura emanating from him, and that aura was slowly intensifying. He rushed over, grabbed the man's duel disk, pulled out his deck, and quickly searched through it. Soon he found a card with large blank areas on its artwork.

Di Xing held the card up to the man. "Didn't you want evidence? This is it." A wolf's silhouette slowly emerged from the card—it was Lei Ming, the wolf Di Xing had just defeated at the power plant.

Di Xing cursed inwardly: Damn it, it's because of this guy that I almost died in the power plant just now. He was circling around the power plant, secretly supplying energy to the big wolf Lei Ming, right?

"Your card sprite was just defeated inside by me, and it hasn't fully revived on the card yet."

The man's expression changed drastically upon seeing this.

"What happened?" Ming asked Di Xing, who then recounted everything that had just happened at the power plant.

"Good heavens, I thought you were trying to sabotage the power plant, but it turns out you've already done it. What do you have to say now?"

That person stopped speaking, choosing to respond to everything with silence.

"Heh, looks like you're not planning to talk. I guess you're just cannon fodder hired by the Wolf family. Fine, even if you don't talk, we can still find out the truth at the station."

"Who are these Wolf family members?" Di Xing asked Ai Xiao, who was standing beside him. He wanted to find out so he could go and collect the debt another day.

The Wolf family is one of the six-pointed star families on the second level of Dusk Durand.

"The Hexagram Family?"

"Yes, it's the collective name for the six strongest families on the second level: the Tiger family, the Lepard family, the Gako family, the Wolf family, the Gou family, and the Li family."

Good heavens, tigers, leopards, jackals, wolves, dogs, and civets—they're all beasts!
