Yu-Gi-Oh!: Starting with an Underworld Deck, Depressing the World, Part 252
Jiang He nodded in agreement, without refusing.
Even setting aside the fact that the Shadow Duel will cause real damage, the very existence of that duel survival device necessitates leaving someone behind to care for it, just like before.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang He and the others bypassed the area where Professor Sartyr and Jaden Yuki were preparing to begin their Shadow Duel and continued on their way!
Meanwhile, inside the ventilation duct on the other side...
"~What?! The circuit is back on?!" Adrian Gecko, who vaguely saw a sliver of light coming from the underground space outside, couldn't help but show a surprised expression.
Some suspicions arose in my mind.
Was this repaired by that Professor Zhao (who's known for his amazing work)...?!
Fortunately, even if the circuit is restored, it won't have a significant impact on him.
He has successfully infiltrated the ventilation duct.
If we just keep going in this direction, we should be able to reach the control room where Professor Cobra is after a while.
Incidentally, along the way, leave some sabotage traps at the abandoned base gate hub that controls the underground forest and leads to the control point in the air direction, just to create more trouble for Jiang He and his group and prevent them from reaching it!
That way, he'll only have to face Professor Cobra alone to seize the special card from him!
There's no need to worry about Jiang He and his group.

Unbeknownst to Adrian Gecko, the shadowy figures of three mischievous little creatures were brazenly following him nearby.
They were whispering and discussing, commenting on his series of actions along the way!
"Hey, Green Bro, Black Bro, that red-haired guy with glasses is wearing something that seems really useful; it's already helped him avoid several traps."
Ojama Yellow's inquisitive expression, he said.
"Take that thing back to your older brother later."
"Although there aren't any human girls' underwear, I think Big Brother will be satisfied with this." The big-tongued Ojama Green immediately crossed his arms and nodded in agreement.
"Wait a minute, it seems he's installed something destructive in that 'electric box' up ahead."
Just then, Big Nose Ojama Black noticed the new commotion ahead and alerted the two of them.
The three little creatures exchanged glances, then quietly floated over and followed!
After the other party had gone a little further away from 217, one of the Ojama Trio was left behind, temporarily materialized, and opened the circuit control box. Inside, a high-tech remote-controlled circuit-destroying device disguised as a "Trap Card" was directly dismantled...
Then it quickly blurred back up.
Almost immediately, the little spy Adrian Gecko, who had just left behind various high-tech remote-controlled traps and sabotage devices to later trap Jiang He group on the other side of the route, had them all destroyed by these three little creatures following behind!
Meanwhile, in the underground forest.
After leaving Jaden Yuki, Syrus Truesdale, and the other two to deal with Professor Cobra Professor Sartyr,...
Jiang He and his group quickly avoided several pitfalls and traps, as well as many poisonous insects and spiders in the woods, and arrived at a wooden bridge leading to the inner building (cefd)!
"There seems to be someone inside that building across the street...!"
Axel Brodie immediately noticed a shadow flash past from inside the building in the distance!
"It seems that the muscular Professor Cobra indeed prepared more than one person to block his way."
Jiang He also immediately sensed the presence of that "malicious intent" within the dark building opposite.
"Hmph, so you got caught!"
A middle-aged man with a mustache, dressed in a brown animal taming outfit and carrying a whip, walked out from inside, chuckling.
With his spiky, upturned hair, he clearly looks like someone who knows how to play cards!
Right next to him was a capsule.
The capsule appeared to be empty, but Jiang He, Chazz Princeton, Johan Andersen could easily spot the figure of a miniature brown cockroach-like Duel Monsters that had been captured inside!
"That capsule... it can actually trap a formless Duel Monsters Spirit inside?!" Chazz Princeton exclaimed in astonishment.
It's important to understand that since they lack physical Duel Monsters Spirit, it's virtually impossible for humans to touch them.
Furthermore, since the opponent was able to accurately trap the Duel Monsters Spirit inside, it means that this middle-aged man with a mustache wearing a tamer's outfit also has the ability to see the Duel Monsters Spirit!
"Who exactly are you?!" Johan Andersen immediately shouted at the person in the distance!
"Hmph, I am Keith Hunter, the Duel Monsters Spirit Hunter, and also the Shadow Duel who has just qualified for Shadow Duel!"
The middle-aged man with a mustache, dressed in a beast taming outfit, took out a Duel Disk, put it on, and looked at the little blue-haired Johan Andersen, chuckling as he spoke.
"I know you, Johan Andersen, the genius duelist with the Crystal Beasts deck!"
"It was because I knew you existed that I accepted this job and came here to deal with you!"
Upon hearing the other party's words, Johan Andersen's expression immediately turned serious. He said, "It seems I'll have to stay here and deal with him!"
"I'll stay and keep watch too!" Axel Brodie suggested, also offering to stay.
This Duel Monsters Spirit hunter Keith Hunter, looks like he's no ordinary opponent.
There might even be decks specifically designed to counter Johan Andersen.
Even if Johan were to lose, he could still turn the tide!
Upon seeing Axel Brodie's suggestion, Jiang He nodded in agreement.
He had noticed that Keith Hunter, who called himself the Duel Monsters Spirit Hunter, was also wearing that silver watch-like Survival Duel device on his wrist.
It's clear that the muscular Professor Cobra still needs to collect some duel energy to revive the "person" behind him!
If we give the opponent too many chances to stall for time, even if we don't collect enough energy here, the Duel Academy outside will almost have enough.
"Duel!"
"Duel!"
Seeing that Johan Andersen and the Duel Monsters Spirit hunter Keith had begun their Shadow Duel, and that Keith no longer had the energy to stop them, the other side...
Jiang He and Alexis Rhodes and the others bypassed the other party, crossed the wooden bridge, and continued towards the building!
Through the several gates inside, you can already see a corridor leading straight to somewhere in the distance!
Clearly, the control room of this abandoned base, and that muscular Professor Cobra, are at the end of that corridor!

"They're here, Jiang He! They didn't fall into any traps and suffer any casualties!"
Inside the control room of the abandoned base, Professor Cobra with his cone-shaped hair looked at the situation on the monitor and his expression suddenly turned serious as he spoke in surprise.
He had originally thought that the traps and facilities in this abandoned base would be able to trap a few of Jiang He He's men as hostages!
Then, he could use the hostages as a threat to change the target of the Shadow Duel into that Jaden Yuki, as requested by that person!
Instead of making the rather troublesome Jiang He an opponent!
However, it seems he has no choice now!
"Bang!!"
Soon, the control room door was kicked open from the outside! Come on!
Jiang He and his group also went inside in the blink of an eye!
"So you were here all along, Professor Cobra."
Upon seeing the muscular, Professor Cobra inside, Jiang He remarked with amusement.
At the same time, he also surveyed the situation inside the control room.
In the control room, besides the monitoring console where Professor Cobra was sitting, there was a very peculiar transparent glass cylinder in the center not far away!
Within that transparent glass cylinder, numerous orange-yellow energy clusters of energy emerged, just like water bubbles!
Jiang He could clearly sense an extremely strong aura of Duel Monsters Spirit inside the glass cylinder!
"Phew!!"
Almost the instant they entered, a burst of orange-yellow light quickly illuminated the glass cylinder!
In the blink of an eye, a ball of energy flew out and transformed into an indistinct, orange-yellow humanoid phantom that floated behind Professor Cobra!
They quickly disappeared!
"Is he almost successfully resurrected, my lord?!"
Professor Cobra said with a hint of surprise.
The next second, as if he had been granted some kind of power, signs of a demonic dragon suddenly appeared on his right hand!
It has some of the scale-like features of Duel Monsters Spirit, and Demon Dragons!
"That lord... has been resurrected?!"
Upon hearing Professor Cobra's words and noticing the changes in his right hand, Alexis Rhodes, Chazz Princeton, Bastion Misawa, and the others were all startled and immediately understood some of his intentions!
Professor Cobra's scheme and plan to collect dueling energy at the Duel Academy seems to be aimed at resurrecting that "Master"!
And the identity of that so-called "adult" seems to be a powerful Duel Monsters Spirit, like the Sacred Beasts and gods, capable of materialization and possessing immense power! Clang! Clang! Clang!
Just then, a strange noise suddenly came from the ventilation ducts in the distance from the control room!
This instantly caught the attention of Jiang He group, as well as the cobra -Professor Cobra on the other side!
They all looked up and headed towards the ventilation duct!
Especially that Professor Cobra!
Although he couldn't see anyone in sight yet, he was pretty sure that someone was sneaking in from a distance, near the ventilation duct!
However, because Jiang He and his group did not fall into any traps and wasted any time, they actually arrived earlier than their opponents!
"Hmph! So there are other rats out there! It must be Adrian Gecko, the eldest son of the suspected spy from the Gecko Financial Group!" Professor Cobra snorted coldly, as if he had just realized something.
Immediately, right in front of Jiang He and the others, he pressed a red button on the control panel in front of the monitor, signaling an encirclement measure to seal off the ventilation ducts and trap the target!... Please give me flowers...
"Let that rat over there stay in the ventilation duct!" "What?!"
Almost simultaneously, Jiang He and the others could clearly hear a familiar, shocked voice coming from the ventilation duct!
Clearly, the little spy Adrian Gecko, had no idea why a piercing sound would suddenly appear from not far from him, directly revealing his whereabouts!
"Damn it! Why is even the short-circuit control device malfunctioning?!"
Hearing the frustrated sounds coming from the ventilation duct, Jiang He and Alexis Rhodes's expressions all turned strange.
"Clearly, it was all those three little things that Ojama Trio that did this...!" "Big brother, we're back after completing our mission!"
The next second, three cheeky little yellow and little green figures floated out from the ventilation duct above the control room and landed not far from Jiang He.
She looked like she wanted to take credit for him!
Furthermore, Ojama Yellow was even holding a special device that looked like a monocle! Undoubtedly, they had managed to snatch it from the little spy Adrian Gecko, amidst the chaos... This made Jiang He nod in satisfaction!
