Who Let Him Play Yu-Gi-Oh! novel Chapter 879

Chapter 879: Chapter 879 – "Rescue"

Academy Island.

Deep in the woods. A dark, windy night—perfect time to get things done.

The Dark Scorpion gang was huddled together, moving through the bushes and tall grass.

"Seriously, why did they have to build this school on some random island?"

As he walked, Chick kept glancing left and right, muttering under his breath.

"This creepy vibe is way too scary..."

Meanae shot him a contemptuous look. "You’re a member of our Dark Scorpion Burglars, and you’re this much of a wimp? You’re disgracing the whole gang."

Cliff pushed his glasses up and squinted at Meanae. "Meanae, there’s a snake at your feet."

Meanae’s pretty face went pale. She practically jumped away on reflex. "Aaaah!"

Chick looked annoyed. "You’re a spirit and you’re still scared of snakes? You’re not any better than me."

Meanae: "Shut up!"

The big guy, Gorg, rubbed his stomach, eyes looking like his soul had already left his body. "I’m hungry..."

In the end, it was their big bro, Zaloog, who stepped up. He turned around impatiently.

"Hey. We’re professionals, remember? Can you guys at least act a little professional?

The boss has more and more powerful people under him now. If we keep messing around like this, we’re gonna lose our spot real soon!"

The noisy burglars went dead quiet in an instant.

Yeah... that did sound like a real problem.

In fact, they’d already started to feel the pressure. The spirits under Kira kept getting stronger, and there were more and more heavy hitters. The few of them squeezed in the middle always felt like tiny shrimps...

"Hold up."

Cliff suddenly spoke.

Zaloog snapped, "What now? I just said—"

"No, boss. I think I’ve found something."

A cold glint flashed off Cliff’s lenses. "There’s someone else’s presence."

The burglars instantly tensed up.

"I don’t feel anything."

Meanae lowered her voice. Then again, her senses had never been as sharp as Cliff’s.

"Is it the spirit we’re supposed to be looking for? Should we... let the master know?"

"No, I’m afraid not." Cliff’s voice sank. "It’s the presence of a living human. Not a spirit."

At that, the burglars all showed strange expressions.

They were searching in the academy’s restricted area, not far from the abandoned dorms. Under normal circumstances, there shouldn’t be anyone here.

Another intruder?

There really had been a lot of intruders at the academy lately...

But since they were already here, they didn’t mind taking care of the intruder for their master while they were at it.

They’d hardly taken a few steps in that direction when someone in their formation suddenly yelled, "Ah!"

Everyone jumped and spun around. The scream came from Chick.

Chick had stepped on something. His ankle was suddenly snared by some kind of energy line and yanked upward. He was jerked into the air and left hanging upside down. A capsule-like device then popped open with a bang and snapped shut around him, trapping him inside.

Everyone was shocked.

"A trap!?"

"This is human tech!" Cliff said in a low, serious voice.

Inside the capsule, Chick struggled with all his might. "Human tech? But that’s impossible, this—ugh aaagh!"

Electricity suddenly crackled inside the capsule, shocking him into a string of miserable screams.
