I Play Yu-Gi-Oh! Card Game

Chapter 1170: Riddle For The Ages

[Yusei, LP0]

Life Points reached Zero, which meant losing the Duel. Yusei had been prepared for this outcome, and before the fight, he had not really expected to win against the legendary boss in front of him.

However, he predicted the result, but not the process.

Until his life points reached zero, he was still digesting the last moment of the duel.

The Equip Spell "Junk Barrage" had a specific description on the card: "When the equipped monster destroys a monster by battle and sends it to the Graveyard: Inflict damage to your opponent equal to half the destroyed monster's ATK in the Graveyard."

Yusei had never noticed this detail, but until now he discovered that the last sentence of this card read "inflicts damage to your opponent equal to half the destroyed monster's ATK."

"Your opponent", not "the controller of the destroyed monster."

In other words, no matter which monster was destroyed, the one who would eventually bear the damage was the "opponent" from the perspective of the duelist who controlled this "Junk Barrage".

So Yuei Vu equipped "Junk Barrage" to Yusei's monster, and then continued to use his own monster to launch suicide attacks. Every time Yuei Vu's monster was destroyed, the effect of "Junk Barrage" would be triggered, and the opponent from Yuei Vu's perspective, Yusei, must receive half the damage of the destroyed monster's attack power.

But after figuring it out, he found it even more incredible.

Obviously "Junk Barrage" was his card, and Senior Yuei Vu just briefly saw it during the deck adjustment, but he figured out this connection from this short line of description text!

At this time, Yuei Vu's image in Yusei's mind immediately rose a lot.

No wonder this man is respected as the strongest duelist of all generations!

Not only his strong cards and dueling skill, but his understanding of Duel Monsters is also probably unmatched in the world!

Yuei Vu, who guessed Yusei's thoughts, coughed lightly. Although he felt that the praise was a bit exaggerated, he did not take the initiative to correct and clarify.

In fact, strictly speaking, it was not Yuei Vu's own idea to equip the "Junk Barrage" to the opponent's monster to launch a self-destruct attack.

The players had broad ideas. In fact, many years ago, someone specifically used this "Junk Barrage" to develop a Burn deck called "Junk Angel".

The components of that deck were actually similar to the Blood Angel deck that Coke Sprite used, but the core card was replaced by "Junk Barrage".

The main idea was to put a "The Sanctuary in the Sky" on the field to avoid your own battle damage, equip the opponent's monster with "Junk Barrage", and use the last will monsters such as "Shining Angel" and "Nova Summoner" to madly hit the opponent's monster to self-destruct, and continue to burn LP through "Junk Barrage".

This was a very old routine, and Yuei Vu suddenly remembered it when he saw Yusei's card.

Of course, it was impossible to improvise on the spot like Yusei imagined. Yuei Vu thought he was good at K Language, but not that good.

After a game of cards, Yuei Vu did not forget to log in and check the player forum during the break.

He was very concerned about one thing. He came to the future and came to this 5DS timeline. So for the real world where the game players lived, was this also the future?

Is the time in World Link Online synchronized with the reality outside the game?

However, the posts in the forum soon told him that things did not seem to be the case.

The discussion about the game plot in the forum seemed to still stay in the Different Dimension arc, the duel between Z-ONE as the ultimate BOSS and Future Yuei Vu, and the discussion about Yuei Vu's disappearance from the original timeline.

That's right, through the subsequent developments seen on the forum, Yuei Vu realized that he seemed to have disappeared from the world he originally lived in.

Does that mean that the speed of World Link Online is not synchronized with the speed of the real world in which the players live?

Is it because the real world is a plane higher than the game?

Or is there any other reason?

Yuei Vu thought about it for a long time, but found that it seemed that the several hypotheses he thought about were difficult to convince himself, so he simply stopped thinking about it for the time being.

He also tried to log out directly from the Duel Link system. If his current state was to log into the Duel Link through some special state, then theoretically, as long as he logged out of this system, he could return to his own timeline.

Of course, he soon found out that this was impossible because there was nothing where the logout button should have been.

He felt like he had encountered a classic and old-fashioned plot: A player logged in to a fully immersive holographic online game, but found that the logout button was removed by the administrator.

Then he got another important piece of information from the forum.

That was, the World Link Online would be closed again in the next two days, ushering in a new wave of maintenance.

Someone in the forum also copied the official announcement. The announcement was very simple, only explaining that the new version would be launched soon, and more player quotas would be opened in the new version, so please stay tuned.

Although there was no mention of the updated content and the details of the new version, many players speculated that the story plot of "Yu-Gi-Oh! 5DS" would be updated soon.

Although some people have suggested that the plot of GX has not been completed according to the animation progress, more people were inclined to believe that the new version would directly enter the 5DS era.

In addition to the discussion of the plot, many players in the forum were eager to try the arrival of the Synchro Era. They believed that at the end of the Different Dimension arc, the game designers deliberately arranged a fight between the gods of Future Yuei Vu and Z-ONE. They deliberately warmed up for the arrival of the Synchro Era and mobilized the enthusiasm and expectations of players for the new version.

Seeing this, Yuei Vu also fell into thinking.

If the new version refers to "Yu-Gi-Oh! 5DS", then it should mean that players will soon come online on their side?!

This made him even more confused about the timeline of this game.

If you think about it carefully, there were some clues when the game transitioned from DM to GX. The time span between DM and GX was five or six years, but for the players during the maintenance period, they were only offline for a week.

So will they also speed up time and fast forward to the new version this time?

Yuei Vu always felt a strange sense of disharmony. He felt vaguely that he seemed to have noticed something, but he couldn't figure out what it was. He just felt that something was wrong with time.

So if the version was fast-forwarded to 5DS, then since he traveled to the current timeline in the alternate dimension, he has never been able to return to the original timeline?

And if he successfully returned to the original timeline, then from that time point to the beginning of the 5DS story for more than ten or twenty years, where was he? What did he do?

Thinking of this, Yuei Vu found that these questions seemed to be not completely impossible to figure out for the future he was in now.

There was a place, like the landmark and soul of Domino City, that stood in the center of the city before and after the "Zero Reverse" incident, that might help him figure out these questions.

Looking at Yusei, who might have just finished playing cards and was in a high mood and couldn't sleep and was still studying the deck, Yuei Vu tilted his head and thought about it.

"Yusei." He suddenly spoke.

Yusei looked at Yuei Vu, who had returned to a ghostly state.

"What's up, senior Yuei Vu?"

A great man once said that the best way for duelists to understand each other is to communicate with each other through cards. Now that the two had just finished a game of cards, Yusei, who thought he had experienced Yuei Vu-senpai's powerful strength and his unfathomable understanding of the game of Duel Monsters, was in a state of respect for his senior.

"If you don't have anywhere to go tonight, go somewhere with me."

Yusei was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Okay. Where do you want to go, Senior Yuei Vu?"

Yuei Vu pondered for a moment, then turned his head and looked through the window covered with spider webs at the center of the city, the brightly lit building that looked like the Tower of Babel.

"Kaiba Corp."
