Chapter 5 The Crucian Carp Crossing the River

In the western part of the United States, in a building that originally belonged to Doma, Tosaka Toshitomi in a red suit had just left the conference room and saw Li Zheng in his office who had returned here at some point: he was still possessed in armor made of "Orehagang magic metal", and he was living like an ultra-ancient alchemy puppet. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although other people, whether they are spirits from another world or intelligent beings, can live in the real world through the power of the Spirit Temple or various other "black technologies", the restrictions on Li Zheng in this world seem to be unexpectedly much.

"Yo, I'm back. Shi Chen PAPA has long been accustomed to the armor Li Zheng, and knowing that he had only had an interview with Haima today, he had long expected that Li Zheng would come here, "I know what you want to ask, it went smoothly, and there was no obstacle." ”

"Didn't you fight? I'm really only worried about this, and everything else. Armor Li Zheng nodded, he had a hard time understanding that the two men had different beliefs - the communication between an idealist magician and a materialist inventor was like nitroglycerin meeting thermite...... However, in fact, looking at Shi Chen's current state, he knew that he had not encountered any trouble at all.

"Haha, I knew you were going to be worried, but no problem. Tosaka Toshitomi said calmly: "Actually, since you told me about this problem from the beginning, I directly avoided these messes - after the whole negotiation, we only talked about the duel and the gorgeous duel, and did not touch on the issues that would make both parties unhappy." Looking at the Seahorse Seto, this person ...... I have to admire that he is really good at language arts, and he very tacitly doesn't mention those things without knowing my tendencies. ”

"...... "Although the current armor Li Zheng has no eyes and can't make expressions, but Shi Chen can hear in his spiritual tone that the current Li Zheng is a little surprised, in the face of this kind of big problem related to the outlook on life for most people, Haima and Shi Chen can avoid tearing through their superb communication skills - I have to say that it is not for nothing that some people can be so successful in their careers," Forget that, leave that at that, do you have any requirements for what's next?"

Regarding Li Zheng's question, Tosaka Shichen shrugged and said: "Request? My only request is the boss, you hurry up and find a contractor, otherwise you will always use this armor to act - those who know know that you are a boss, and those who don't know think that you are a mass-produced miscellaneous fish." ”

"Are you the kind of uncle who is forced to marry......" Shi Chen's PAPA's answer made Li Zheng's face full of black lines, to which he changed his question: "I mean, don't you have any doubts about the idea of the 'gorgeous competition' that I said? ”

"If you have doubts, this kind of activity looks a bit like it's messing around, but if you think about it carefully, if the situation is really like what you said in the document, I'm afraid the only time to do so is now......" To this, the magician undead from another world frowned, "My only doubt is why do you think that the future will develop the way you say, why does it have to become the 'age of storytelling and pits'? I remember Z-ONE mentioned this...... But even the era he mentions is much more optimistic than what you write in the document, but you write in great detail and vividness, as if ......"

"'It's as if I did survive in that era,' right?" When the magician fell into doubt, the armor Li Zheng took Tosaka Tosaka's words, and the magician nodded to him to prove the correctness of this guess, and Li Zheng said earnestly: "It's not that this is lying to you, but I did survive in such an era: the speed of the whole game is terrifyingly fast, and the two sides do only one thing each round: that is, frantically exchange resources." Whoever can get more resources will win, and in such an era, the vast majority of cards in the entire card pool will be overwhelmed - they who cannot earn resources will inevitably be discarded even if they are good and in good shape, and many very good cards will even be eliminated because one attribute is not good enough, and lose the right to shine. ”

"It's a little unimaginable......" Shi Chen shook his head, he could hardly imagine what a duel would be like in such an environment.

"Well, although this environment is not all bad - at least only in this high-pressure environment can a large number of players who are very accomplished in this game be born, and only in such an environment can more scientific concepts such as 'card difference theory' be incubated. "However, it was all based on the fact that Duel Monsters was just a game, and now that Duel Monsters has a much more important place in this world, the constant development of a single deck and tactics will only turn this already vibrant environment into a backwater: everyone will play around with similar decks until a new banned card table or a new deck set is released." ”

In the previous life, there may still be a great god who insists on using the Fun deck and survives not for victory, but for joy - because it is just a game, but in this life, "Duel Monsters" have countless interests and even related to life...... Under this pressure, Li Zheng pessimistically estimated that the decks outside the mainstream would lose all the right to survive in the process of development.

"In the end, it will become the situation that Z-ONE said, right?" As a strict magician, Tosaka Tokitomi is one of the few people who still calls Z-ONE "his real name" instead of "Crab Head", "but...... Don't you still have that 'big plan'?"

"It's just a layer of insurance. Armor Li Zheng couldn't make an expression, but the content of his voice and his flat tone made Tosaka Toshitomi feel a little relieved.

What Shi Chen Papa didn't know, however, was that Li Zheng would not tell them in front of others that in fact he himself was actually more or less unconfident in that simply crazy plan.

"Glamorous Contest" is a tournament that does not simply rely on victory as the only metric - although victory is still important, the duelist who uses the "low fashion value" method to win will not be able to earn enough points to advance, in other words, in this world of stereoscopic images, the better visual effect of "Glamorous Contest" is easy to attract fans.

"If the 'Magnificent Contest' is very popular with the duelists, then the 'skill points' allocated by the entire human society to the duel that are purely for victory will be diverted, and even if our 'grand plan' fails, there will be room for remedy. Li Zheng summed it up like this: "So do you understand why I suddenly started advocating the Gorgeous Contest?"

The magician in the red suit nodded. But in fact, there is another sentence that Li Zheng did not say: although he can conclude from comparing the difference between the "players" he met in his previous life and the "duelists" he met in this life that the latter wants to master dueling skills in this world where dueling skills are related to the "laws of the world" is much more difficult than the former in his previous life, but this means that the benefits after mastering dueling skills will be greater, and as long as the power of greed is large enough, these restrictions will be broken.

There are very few people who can dedicate themselves to their responsibilities, but those who can take risks for the sake of greed are like carp crossing the river.
