Under the bright fluorescent lamp, Fu Ko cowered in the corner of his room, lying on the padded floor, sorting out the chaotic thoughts of the past few days. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info He used a ballpoint pen to draw five large circles on a blank piece of paper, on which were written "Fuko and Elusa", "Dragon Sealer", "Shirley and Mizoguchi", "Ragnarok", and "Taiichi New World".

On each circle, he drew a clear extended line, and then wrote at the end of the line the reason why the group represented by these circles participated in the WRGP event.

"Fuko and Elusa": Find the wedge to get into the right route, complete the final ending, and leave this world.

"Dragon Sealer": Prove your strength in the World Championship, follow your dreams, and fight against the evil forces that are trying to destroy Shin-Tong Minono City.

"Shirley and Mizoguchi": Revenge on the Taiyi Organization.

"Ragnarok": Inherit the lineage of the gods and make it their responsibility to save the world. They were one of the first groups to begin to discover and confront the One.

"Taiyi New World": The organizer of the WRGP tournament, who also takes in the form of a mysterious team to participate in the competition, is the culprit of many major disasters, murders, robberies and other vicious events in the world, and the purpose is unclear from beginning to end.

Fuko was well aware that there were now three circles of teams here that were allies of him and Elusa, and that they all shared the goal of the New World. No matter what trickery the New World is up to, they have plenty of strength to fight it.

Now that both the Ragnarok and 5DS teams have been defeated by the New World, the only one who can defeat the New World on the frontal battlefield is the Divine Fire Thief where he is located. As for the other battlefields, if the new world doesn't move, then they won't be able to fight back accordingly.

He turned the ballpoint pen in his hand and thought: Sure enough, Taiyi's true purpose makes me care a lot. What exactly do they want, why did Godwin cooperate with them, what was Paradox's connection with them, and was the current vigilante under their control?

He couldn't figure out these things all the time, and he didn't have the right clues for him to associate with, so he couldn't ask them directly. It's like a fish in his throat, although this is not an accurate word, but this is how he feels now.

Now he really wants someone to send a piece of information.

At that moment, he heard footsteps outside the door, and the door was pushed open. He thought to himself, too, that neither of the two women here was in the habit of knocking on the door, and Mizoguchi would not make such a hurried and noisy footsteps.

It was Elusa who came in, combing her long crimson hair in one place and tying it into a ponytail with a small rope. After closing the door, she walked straight towards Fuko, and as if she didn't see him, she stepped on his belly with the soles of her feet. The woman eventually stopped at his desk, sat down in a chair, and then turned around and threw a folder to him on the floor.

He knew that Elusa was dissatisfied with his "reckless" performance today, so he still accepted such a gentle punishment.

He sat up, picked up the folder, and took out the papers—all the information he had asked Mizoguchi to put together about the New World, and Elusa had brought it for him, for the rest of the conversation belonged to the two of them.

Fu Ko didn't rush to speak, he looked at the information carefully, there were only the information of the three people in the New World, all of them had been collected recently, and everything about them before was blank.

"Luciano", "Placido", "José".

This is the whole team of the New World, a total of three people. All of them were dressed in white cloaks, their faces were partially replaced by machines, and both Fuko and Ragnarok sensed that most of them were gone, so it could be inferred that all three of them were transformers.

In addition, the energy on their bodies was also familiar to Fuko, and he remembered that the Paradox that appeared before had similar powers to them, and they were mostly in a group.

The images of the three are also very intriguing, Luciano is a teenager, Placido is a young man, and José is an old man, almost like the process of a person's life.

Fuko has retrieved footage of their battles with Ragnarok and 5DS, and has a basic understanding of the characteristics of their decks.

[Note: Since most of the cards in the anime's machine emperor deck are not real-card, the following machine emperor card deck is a deck formed by combining the cards that have been realized with the cards I "made" by myself, which is different from the animation.] 】

Their deck is the "Machine Emperor" series. The monsters in the deck are all mecha soldiers, mechanical monsters, etc., and magic and traps can be linked to monsters. The most impressive thing about it is the annoying special summoning.

After watching 2 games, Fuko found that the monster card area of the new world was never vacant, there was at least 1 monster, and as long as there was 1 monster, they could summon more monsters in the future, and their monsters were like a continuous stream of mass-produced cyborg legions.

In addition, the core monsters of this deck are "Emperor Dragon: Star" and "Emperor God: Machine Recorder ∞", both of which have the ability to snatch each other's homogeneous monsters and become their own equipment cards. In this era of homotonous monsters, these two monsters are really terrifying in a sense.

The monsters in the Machine Emperor deck are basically different in level. The strongest is of course the "Emperor God", followed by the "Emperor Emperor", followed by the "Emperor Army", "Emperor Ghost", "Emperor Soldier" and "Emperor Parts". They also have the ability to assemble and cooperate with each other, and of course, they also have the effect of restraining the monsters of the same tone.

I have to say that this deck seems to be full of malice towards the same tone monsters.

At this time, Elusa suddenly sat down in front of him.

He didn't pay attention at first, because he thought she was probably still angry now, so he didn't want to provoke her at this time. However, at this time, he suddenly felt a terrible sense of oppression in front of him.

He looked up, and a silver blade appeared in Elusa's chest, and under her guidance, it stabbed at his left shoulder.

However, his reaction was quicker, and the moment the blade was about to reach the front of his shoulder, all the telekinetic tentacles on his body crawled out, holding the blade firmly. When his tentacles grasped the blade, he was surprised to find that there was no murderous aura on the blade, that is, the owner of the blade did not want to go any further.

"When did you awaken your telekinesis?" he asked, "and what do you mean by that?"

Elusa drew her blade back, and Fuko retracted his tentacles, and the two looked at each other.

"Because I know very well your intention to let me bring the information collected by Mizoguchi to your room, you want to talk to me alone. I've been with you for so long, and I know what you're going to say next. ”

Fuko didn't answer, silently waiting for Elusa's follow-up.

"What you're trying to say to me is probably that tomorrow's new world will be different from all the previous WRGP teams, they are not ordinary people, they will attack me with their telekinesis without hesitation, and I will be beaten to the ground...... I understand this, and as long as I am at war with the New World, I will have to face this sooner or later, and my combat power is useless here. ”

"But what you don't know is...... I've been secretly trying to complete the tasks given to me by the system, and I've been trying to defeat every duelist that comes my way. Maybe you don't like the system very much, but it has helped me a lot. Finally, the system fulfilled its promise, and the telekinesis awakened today...... My telekinesis ...... You should have nothing to say now, there's nothing you can do to stop me from fighting alongside you. ”

Fu Kou shook his head and asked with some doubts: "How did you hide from me? The process of telekinesis awakening, it is impossible for me not to notice it at such a close distance, and besides, until you attacked me just now, I didn't notice that the telekinesis on your body has changed, so why?"

"For me, it's the same question. Elusa changed her serious expression, blushed, gently scraped her cheeks with her fingertips, and said with some embarrassment, "That's me...... I let Aphrodite hide it from you, so that I could let you notice the change in me the first time I used my telekinesis. ”

She wanted to work silently and surprise me. Fuko thought to himself.

Elusa returned to her earnest appearance and said, "Now I can also become a combat force." We'll be able to clear the game all at once. ”

"What do you mean...... That's right. "I had already convinced Shirley to make her last shot, so ...... that case."

"I'm number one. Elusa preemptively said, "If you don't want me to expose your lies, then let me be the first to do it." You just took advantage of Shirley's revenge mentality and deceived her into ending the 'grudge' with the last stick, but that's a lie, you don't plan to let ordinary people face the new world at all, you don't plan to let her appear at all, do you?"

Fuko nodded helplessly.

Elusa sighed and said, "Actually, I can quite understand your thoughts. When I saw that you were stunned today, I had a feeling that I didn't want you to play tomorrow...... But, as always, there is nothing I can do to stop you. ”

Fuko looked at her.

She said meaningfully: "Maybe this is the difference between me and Miraj, she will fully support you to continue, because she is the person who knows you best, knows what is best for you, so your feelings for her are also the deepest." ”

Fuko opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer.

At this moment, the electronic voice of the long-lost Aphrodite sounded in the ears of the two of them.

"The system automatically reminds: You have entered the ending route [Cradle of the Arc], please find the route that has successfully cleared the level. ”

"Huh?" Elusa asked, confused, "what does that mean?"

Fuko immediately stood up, he looked around, but saw no change, and then he said, "This means that the world is about to face its greatest test...... In addition, what we can feel more intuitively should be ......"

He walked straight to the window, opened the curtains, and looked out at the sky.

"It's that thing. ”

Elusa walked over and saw the scene outside the window. In the gray night, an area suddenly appears with a large number of starlight, but if you look closely, you will see that none of them are starlight.

"What's that?" Elusa asked, standing firm. "I could feel a lot of energy emanating from right above there. ”

Fuko couldn't answer, but turned back to Elusa and said, "Elusa, you stay here, and if you feel any dangerous changes in your telekinesis around you, then take Shirley and them out of here immediately." I'll go there and have a look, and then I'll come back. ”

Elusa nodded.

When Fuko flew towards the area full of light with the help of telekinesis, he found that the inhabitants on the ground did not seem to notice the huge changes in the sky, it seemed that the area was not visible to everyone, maybe for ordinary people, the current night sky was still the same as before, right?

As he approached the area, Fuko realized what kind of person was able to see it, as he soon met two companions.

That's Harald and the Immovable Wanderer.

Harald uses the power of the three pupils of Rune, and the immovable wandering star is the power of the red dragon, and they are both telekinesis. That's what people have in common with people who can see that area.

"It seems that we all have the same purpose, so let's go together. Harald was not at all surprised when he saw the other two, and instead led the way to that place.

When the three of them were close enough to see it in its entirety, they realized that it was a ruined city upside down. The "starlight" was all the unquenched flames of the city!

"It's too much fun. Harald sighed.

"Look. Fudo pointed to the center of the city and said, "It's like the one down there." ”

Fuko and Harald also noticed that although the city was in ruins, with scattered flames and debris everywhere, many landmark roads and buildings were still faintly recognizable, and the entire structure had not changed much.

"What's going on?" said Harald, confused.

Both Fuko and Fudo remembered the last words that Paradox had said to them that day. Fudo told Harald about the whole process of meeting Paradox.

Fuko tried to get closer, but he found that there was an invisible barrier around the city, and no matter how powerful his telekinesis was, he couldn't break through.

"This is Shintomi Shino after the destruction of the future?, but why?" he heard Harald say after Fuko's return, presumably believing the absurd-sounding but true-sounding words of Fuko.

Before his death, Paradox said, "It is Fuko who disturbs history, and it is Muto Games, Yujo Judai, and Fudo Yuxing who destroy the future." ”

This is the disturbed history, the destroyed future?

Harald asked, "Why are you 'disrupting history' and not moving the stars to 'destroy the future', what have you done?"

Fuko and Fudo Yuxing glanced at each other, but neither said anything for their own reasons.

At this moment, there was a burst of wild laughter in the sky.

"Hahahaha...... Sure enough, that guy from Paradox lost to you, and I said how he disappeared completely. ”

Three figures appeared, and in the reflection of the light of the sea of fire, Fukou and they recognized the identities of these three people, they were the trio of the New World, and it was obvious that the appearance of the city in front of them had nothing to do with them.

Young Luciano was the most talkative of them all, and it was he who had just burst out laughing, and he said in a sharp voice, "Since none of them can answer your questions, let me answer them." ”

Seeing that it was his old enemy, Harald became vigilant.

"All three of us are from the future, so we know very well the history of this world. Luciano didn't say anything more surprising than Paradox, and they had expected it, but what he said next was shocking.

"'Disrupting history' refers specifically to Fuko. He does not exist in the present or the future, but only proves that in the past time and space, someone met the conditions for traveling through the future and came here. He is the one who shouldn't have appeared, originally the lucky cup should have been won by the immovable wandering star, and all the members of the dark seal were also defeated by the dragon sealer......"

Harald and Fudo looked at Fuko suspiciously.

Fu Ko had already thought of a rebuttal: "If you are really the ones who will travel back in the future, then you should be the ones who shouldn't exist. If I didn't exist in the original plane, then the reason is that you appeared and changed history, so that I am here. ”

His rebuttal was half-true and half-false, leaving the young Luciano speechless, and Harald and Fudo did not pursue the question.

The young Placido immediately "put on the battle": "Maybe...... However, it is indisputable that you have destroyed the future without moving. Because of your presence, the duel continued to evolve, eventually contributing to the complete mechanization of the world, and the control of the entire world by computer systems. One day, the artificial intelligence system rebelled against humans, and all the robots that were originally slaves of humans attacked humans in turn, destroying their homes and controlling their weapons, so that humans could no longer appear on land!"

It seemed as if they wanted to argue with Fuko.

Fuko took a deep breath and replied, "Let's not say how stupid it is for you to blame all the historical results on a few people, but just that you have traveled to this plane, and the original 'Future of Destruction' may no longer exist. ”

Placidon was also defeated.

Finally, the old man José stepped forward, his massive frame and his heavy tone bringing everyone's attention to him.

"I am one of the last few humans in the future. To save the future, we must find a way to find the root cause of destruction. We couldn't change the status quo at that time, so we built a time-traveling machine over the course of several years, risking great danger, and transported us to this era. ”

"We believe that duels are the most important factor in promoting the advent of the era of full mechanization, because in order to pursue a higher level of duel, human beings are constantly updating their technological level...... Only by stopping it from evolving will we be able to stop that future from happening. We've made a lot of efforts to eliminate a lot of people and machines that have promoted the evolution of dueling......"

Is this the reason for the destruction of the House of Lublanc and the reversal of zero?, Fuko thought to himself.

"It's just that in the end we realized that what we were doing was useless. You're right, we've changed the course of history, but the 'gravity' of history is so terrible, and we've changed so many things, but we still can't stop the duel from evolving, it's just delayed for a while. Maybe your appearance is also the person who stopped us from being produced by the history of this world in order to get back on track, but in any case, according to the current situation, the world will not be changed if it is destroyed, so the meaning of our coming to this world does not exist. ”

Harald sarcastically said, "Hehe, you are really good at talking about murder, robbery, and other evils so openly." ”

"You are a man of this time, you have your limitations, and I will not blame you for being short-sighted. José replied.

Harald was so angry by his words that he could barely maintain the image of a gentleman.

"I believe for the time being that you are here to protect the future, and I don't comment on your actions, but what if the end of the future has been changed, as Fuko said?"

José shook his head and said, "As I said earlier, history is constantly returning to the 'right track' of destruction, and we can no longer change the world with the means we used before. If something is not done, the world will perish. ”

"Why should we believe your words?" Harald asked, "perhaps you are destroying this city for some other purpose, and then concocting a lie about its future destruction." ”

José glared at him and said, "We don't need to make up excuses at all, that's the truth." Whether you believe it or not, it won't change our actions...... See? This city is a replica of the destroyed Shin-Tong Minono City we made, which we call the 'Cradle of the Arc'. Seeing its deplorable state, are you going to stop us from moving?"

"Cradle of the Arc"?

Fuko looked at the upside-down ruined city that Jose was pointing at.

It seems that it wasn't just Fuko who discovered the actions of the New World and Taiyi, but the New World and Taiyi also discovered their actions.

"Why did you tell us this?" asked Fuko, "and why did you have the Cradle of the Arc here?"

José let out a dull laugh that sounded like ventriloquism: "Because we have completely lost patience with changing the world with 'soft means', now we are going to use 'rough methods'." ”

"What do you mean?" asked Fudo Yuxing, frowning.

"That's what it means to let the arc cradle fall like this, stupid!" Luciano said with a grin.

The three of them were all shocked.

"You should already know," Luciano continued, "WRGP is what we host?, hehe, in fact, the purpose of the whole event is to gather you duelists from all over the world, to gather your telekinesis and the power of your rare monsters, especially your phantom gods. We originally thought that the charge of the arc cradle would be completed at least in our finals, but we didn't expect the battle between you to finish it early, and we don't need to participate in tomorrow's game at all...... Now all this energy has become the 'nutrients' of the arc cradle!"

Only then did they know the purpose of Taiyi's competition!

Placido continued, "Now it is still only visible to us telekinesis, but in fact it is fully charged, only because it is so large that it will take a long time to fully function. When even ordinary humans can see it, it means it's about to land. ”

"No kidding!" Harald shouted, the power of the Pupil of Rune sharply trying to rush to the arc cradle.

José said at this time: "It's useless, since we told you this, it means that we are fully prepared, you can't destroy the arc cradle at all, and you can't stop it from falling." We just have to wait for the city to come to an end. As long as this duel city is finished, the evolution of the duel will stop. ”

Suddenly, they noticed that the lights of the city below them were all lit up, as if it were day.

"What's going on?" said Harald, looking down.

"We've come to this point, do we still need to hide it?" Jose said with a smile, "Our conversation just now has been broadcast live from beginning to end, and now, the entire residents of Shin-Tong Shino City know about us and the fate they are about to face. ”

"Panic, feel the horrors of our time!" Placido shouted below.

Luciano laughed.

When Harald was so angry that he wanted to make a move, the three of them turned and flew into the protective circle of the arc cradle. Harald couldn't follow up and could only watch them disappear into the shadows.

"We have to find a way to stop them. Fudo Youxing said.

Fuko shook his head and said, "They are a bunch of bigots, they came here with the same idea, and they have faced disasters that are enough to make their will as strong as a rock, and we can't convince them with a word or two. They want to believe that it was Shinto Minori and the duel that destroyed the future, so what can we do?"

"Then you can't watch their future humans destroy the city we live in now, right?" said Harald. "What is the reason for destroying the future, but making us pay the price now?"

"The idea is that we are all responsible for future destruction. Shin-Tong Minono City is the city with the most advanced level of duel technology in the entire world, and it is also the origin of all duels, and destroying this place can stop the progress of technology. At the same time, they also intend to use this event to make the Taiyi Organization completely appear in the world, warning those humans who want to make duels and systematic evolution. "No matter how distorted they may be, in short, they told us about it in advance and gave us a choice." ”

"What choice...... Harald asked, and as soon as he said that, the same thing came to mind.

Yes, should we live with the city, or abandon it?

Co-existence is obviously stupid, give it up...... But it is equivalent to creating a greater terrifying atmosphere for the whole world, telling humanity that Taiyi can threaten any duel city like this.

Then, in the next 1 hour, the city of Shinto Minono fell into complete chaos, just like the ancient city of the previous world.

Ordinary people can't see the arc cradle at all, so only a handful of people have left the city, and most people are watching and asking the Public Security Bureau for an explanation.

And the team members who could see the arc cradle quietly gathered together.
