Chapter 171: Discovering the Secret!

After finishing matters with Bai Jing, Tiancheng Guang, with the assistance of two Swordsmen, slowly explored this shattered dimension.

Most of the Spirits remained unconscious or comatose, and the puppets transformed from the Fusion Army lay scattered across the ground like broken dolls.

Horrifying.

Too horrifying.

He turned over a shard of rubble—it was the card once used by the puppet Xiao Liu, now reduced to fractured rock, fallen into this shattered dimension.

After searching for a while, Tiancheng Guang found a small Spirit amid the ruins; it still bore traces of Divine Yingyi, but had largely reverted to the form of a "Gem Knight."

Tierra glanced at it and said, "Though its hatred and power were fully absorbed by Bai Jing due to its duel loss, it had little consciousness to begin with—awakening it would likely take months. But that's not long, is it?"

To her, months might as well be an instant.

"Captain, can you handle this from now on?"

"Rest assured!"

Though she herself was too injured to move, Bai Jing accepted this task with surprising eagerness.

In fact, no one else could do it!

Under Tierra's control, Xiao Liu and the other Spirits were turned into cards. Tiancheng Guang searched through the Duel Disk, but sadly, most of the cards had been absorbed into that massive deck.

Still, this wasn't a difficult problem to solve.

Though these giant cards couldn't be inserted into a normal deck, Tiancheng Guang merely needed to refine and shrink them back down.

He particularly wanted the Gem Knight King, as well as the cards Red Jade and Yellow Jade.

If lucky, he might even break down a few other strange things.

After that, Tiancheng Guang went to the Fusion Army's temporary base. Since the base had no experimental equipment and was mostly used to transform puppet soldiers, he found no interesting research material.

"Sigh…"

Tierra sighed deeply as well.

Last time, in the Alliance's storage depot, Tierra discovered the Fusion Army was experimenting with artificial Dark Magician Spirits, and she obtained the Dark Magician card—then used that as an excuse to have Tiancheng Guang build her a body component.

After arriving in this shattered dimension, she was bored and hoped to find something useful—but in the end, she found nothing of value.

This place was truly just a "factory."

Yet Tiancheng Guang thought the opposite.

In this shattered dimension, he obtained far more useful information than he'd ever imagined!

On a computer he hadn't had time to remove, he found information about Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang!

Since the Three Phantom Demons incident—and even earlier—Tiancheng Guang had never seen Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang again.

Worse still, not only Tiancheng Guang, but even the Sea Horse Company investigators commissioned by Wan Wan Zhangmu had also lost track of Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang. After those investigators discovered Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang's research team was linked to the "Wan Wan Zhangmu Group," Wan Wan Zhangmu resolved to become the group's leader, and Sea Horse handed over all matters concerning Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang to him, once and for all.

He called it his family matter and told him to handle it himself.

But given Sea Horse's personality, he might have simply wanted to test Wan Wan Zhangmu's mettle.

In short, since then, aside from Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang using Shen Lin Yao's body to warn him, Tiancheng Guang had neither seen nor heard anything about him.

Matters at the Academy and within the Fusion Department seemed to have been fully handed over to others, while he vanished without a trace.

Today, while searching this computer's data, Tiancheng Guang learned that Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang had not forgotten the Xyz Dimension attack—he was now preparing for war in his own "headquarters."

Really?

So soon?

Tiancheng Guang carefully read the report.

What was the exact attack time?

He scanned up and down the document.

Couldn't find it—

Maybe the timing hadn't been decided yet?

Tiancheng Guang thought for a moment.

In Yu Gi Oh A5, Ed Phoenix led the Fusion Army's assault on the Xyz Dimension, but the exact timing was never specified.

Logically, it should have been during Ed Phoenix's third year.

But—

Ed Phoenix wasn't an ordinary duelist; it wasn't impossible for him to become commander as a first-year student.

He recalled the Fusion Army's earlier "invitation" to Ed to join them.

Thinking of this, he quickly searched for information related to Ed.

"!"

It was actually here—

Tiancheng Guang read a lengthy report filled with excessive praise for "Professor Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang." He immediately recognized the writer's intent, but that wasn't important—what mattered was the content.

According to the report, Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang had once made an agreement with someone for Ed Phoenix to assist them, but Ed not only refused, he actively opposed them, severely violating the agreement—so both sides engaged in a "contest."

Of course.

In this world,

a contest meant only one thing: a duel.

"The faction connected to Ed…?"

What else could it be?

The White Society!

Tiancheng Guang smiled, wearing the expression of someone enjoying a good show.

He loved watching villains turn on each other.

Tierra watched Tiancheng Guang laughingly use the computer, frowning in confusion and tilting her head.

What could possibly make Tiancheng Guang, who only cared about fusion, so delighted?

No new cards either?

Tiancheng Guang didn't notice her expression—he kept reading.

The final outcome remained unknown; the report's end contained only "the Professor's words."

"So at least they didn't win."

Tiancheng Guang nodded.

Given the report's tone, if Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang's team had defeated the Barrier of Light's team, why hide the result? Wouldn't they have boasted it to the heavens?

But one sentence caught Tiancheng Guang's attention.

"The Professor said they received even more light from the opponent? So they won overwhelmingly? Triumphed completely?"

This was clearly typical rhetoric, but given Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang's style, losing the cards yet winning the battle wasn't impossible.

Moreover, the implication made Tiancheng Guang narrow his eyes slightly—

Could it be?

Tiancheng Guang remembered Serena.

In the original story, Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang never called Serena his daughter—he merely valued her.

But in this world, Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang had openly declared her his daughter, using it to comfort—and even "PUA"—her, molding her into a heartless machine obsessed solely with dueling…

He was even more extreme than in the original!

Could Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang himself possess the "Light of Ruin"?

Huh—

Everything known so far seemed to connect!

No wonder Tiancheng Guang felt this Xyz Dimension, Synchro Dimension, and this world didn't appear to be splintered—he still needed a Dimension War!

If he truly wanted to reunite his daughter, he'd only need to find the four incarnations!

Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang truly wanted 【WAR】!

Chapter Two: By the way, this novel will never redeem Chi Ma Chima Chima Lingwang—its sole direction is annihilation.
