Chapter 201: Dragon with Fusion in Its Name
Ice Prison Dragon, Triclad Dragon.
One form of the Ice Barrier Dragon, Triclad Dragon, with Level 9 and Attack 2700.
Triclad Dragon, like Tierra, belongs to the "dt Planet" universe as a legendary card among legends; it was once banned for using first turn to banish all of the opponent's hand cards, rendering them unable to play Duel Monsters, and even later, the voice actor for Gui Liu Jingjie, Yuuki Ono, recorded a dedicated summoning line just for this card—truly a legendary card in every sense.
In the dt Planet story, Triclad Dragon is also famously invincible.
When the dt world was invaded by alien insects and the Demon God was awakened, the guardians of the Ice Barrier debated whether to release the final dragon within the Ice Barrier—the strongest "Triclad Dragon." Before this, they had already successively summoned the Light Spear Dragon and the Heaven Spear Dragon; perhaps due to overconfidence or the dire state of battle, they began considering new strategies.
Some believed they could summon the third dragon, while others argued that if they were to summon Triclad Dragon, it would be better to directly summon a demon—later proven, the latter approach was correct.
After being unsealed, Triclad Dragon immediately went berserk, instantly freezing the entire planet, effortlessly annihilating the entire Demon God race, and eventually forcing the Dragon Knights to perish alongside it.
No one knew how this native dragon, appearing out of nowhere on the planet, could be so powerful. It was neither a star-creating deity like Sophia or Tierra, nor a hero like Bai Jing, who had endured countless trials and received the planet's and collective consciousness's trust—just a native dragon, how could it possess such absurd godlike power?
As a famous native dragon, subsequent DT series cards have produced numerous of its "masks"—such as the Demonic Dragon, Shadow Spirit Robe, Zero Dragon… Among them, Ice Prison Dragon Triclad Dragon is its fusion mask.
But…
Compared to its other forms, this card is surprisingly weak.
But—that has its conditions.
Although its effect is weak, its fusion condition greatly compensates for this—three cards with different names.
Just three cards with different names are needed to fuse and summon this!
It can even directly fuse and summon itself using monsters already on the field!
Tiancheng Guang was curious whether, if he randomly placed a few monsters into his deck, they could survive under Super Fusion.
Moreover, this card has special uses.
Because its fusion condition is extremely lenient, in Duel Links, there are indeed specialized strategies for Ice Prison Dragon—fuse a pile of high-level monsters, attack, then detach fusion to deliver a one-hit kill.
The strategy is similar to Seto Kaiba's use of Blue-Eyes Chaos MAX Dragon.
Unfortunately, this card must use cards from your field and hand to fuse; otherwise, Tiancheng Guang could have performed a trick—fusing trash to steal three monsters from the opponent's graveyard and summon them, surely bringing a smile to others.
Afterward, Tiancheng Guang did not draw any new cards; although he drew Mask Change, magic cards held little meaning for him.
But that wasn't a big problem—since he had already made initial contact with the s Dimension, he would surely have more chances to obtain cards from there, eventually acquiring Masked Heroes.
After all, it was still better than before, when he couldn't find anything at all and thought they didn't exist.
Afterward, the Kaiba Corporation and the Public Security Administration continued their transactions, while Tiancheng Guang and other students gradually returned to their world with the Kaiba Corporation's team.
Tiancheng Guang took this opportunity to tally up the gains from his long dimensional journey.
First and foremost, the most significant and critical gain was undoubtedly "Netherworld Dragon, Long Wang "—as a Duel Dragon, this card could assist Tiancheng Guang's Spirit power, ensuring he no longer had to rely solely on Bai Jing.
Next, the second most desired item was…
【Fusion】!
Dragon with Fusion in its name!
Fierce Hunger Poison Fusion Dragon!
Fusion Summoning Dragon!
In the original story, it was the ace monster of "Yuri," one of the Four Yous in the Fusion Dimension.
Upon arriving in this dimension and dueling You Wu, Tiancheng Guang had checked his deck for traces of Fusion Dragons but found none at the time; however, Tiancheng Guang was not a native of this world—he knew well the uniqueness of You Wu and the others!
Dueling You Wu and his three other incarnations? Of course you'd get a Fusion Dragon! No need to think twice!
Super Fusion would surely give him this answer!
Over fifteen days, besides daily routines and assisting You Xing, he frequently dueled You Wu; he admired this "kind-hearted" older brother who spoke up for him and gladly dueled Tiancheng Guang.
Thus, after those fifteen days passed, Tiancheng Guang finally obtained a faintly visible Fusion Dragon!
The rest was left to the Philosopher's Stone and Super Fusion!
First, believe!
As for other major gains, such as Ice Prison Dragon and Next-Generation Spares, they were highly useful but more symbolic than practically applicable.
However, during the days spent debugging and modifying D-Wheels with You Xing, Tiancheng Guang, by analogy, resolved many previously baffling alchemy problems and figured out how to modify the Dimension Gate to reduce its energy consumption.
For Tiancheng Guang, this was undoubtedly a special enhancement.
Because as his alchemy improved, his control over Super Fusion grew stronger; one day, Super Fusion would become fully his own power.
After returning to their world, Tiancheng Guang briefly enjoyed a few days of leisure.
Why say "brief" when there was still a long vacation left?
Because Tiancheng Guang—became famous.
As a duelist possessing the Dark Magician, as the first duelist to battle from the s Dimension, as the "Absolute Fusionist" certified by both worlds, and due to his public remarks criticizing the "unfairness" of the s Dimension, Tiancheng Guang became a sensation in global media—although many others also rose to fame during these days, the company would not let this momentum slip away.
Thus, during his vacation, Tiancheng Guang had to rush to Fengguang Corporation, where Professor Cronos helped him sign a contract even better than his previous one in record time, then filmed several simple fusion advertisements, leaving him almost no free time to make new parts for Tierra as promised.
But Tierra wasn't in a hurry over such a short span of ten or twenty days; moreover, she found filming advertisements interesting and was also interested in promoting Simple Fusion, so she didn't mind at all.
After the busy period, upon returning to the Duel Academy, Tiancheng Guang once again worked hard to create Tierra's new part—"Hellfire Machine, Beelzebub"—this time without the help of kind Fusion Army mechanical materials; he used a large sum of Kaiba Corporation's prize money, plus endorsement fees from Fengguang Corporation's instant noodles, to gather enough metal materials.
After completing all these tasks, Tiancheng Guang suddenly realized…
School was about to start!
Beyond entering a new grade and beginning a new semester's studies, the most important thing Tiancheng Guang needed to pay attention to was:
The arrival of the Taylor sisters, the early arrival of new students, and…
The "Fusion Department" is recruiting for the new semester!
