Chapter 1157: Center of the Infinite Universe

"Ugh..."

Fika staggered back two steps, his gaze somewhat unfocused.

How is it possible, I... lost?

Even with the power of Barian, even with monsters of the level of No. 53 Heart-eart and No. 92 Heart-eart Dragon, did I actually still lose?

Gold Sarcophagus... right, that Gold Sarcophagus.

He looked at the Gold Sarcophagus floating on You Xuan's field. From the beginning, he felt that this box seemed unusual. This is by no means just an ordinary Continuous Spell card; this card contains extraordinary power.

Fika is still an outsider, and doesn't know much about the relationship between the Gold Sarcophagus and Yugi Wu Teng. But at this moment, the Kaiba employees around here already knew that this Gold Sarcophagus symbolizes the Gold Sarcophagus of farewell that Yugi Wu Teng used to send away the legendary Pharaoh in the Ceremonial Battle.

The monsters that You Xuan used that were covered in the skin of the Gold Sarcophagus are also the same, each one is clearly a new skin for Yugi's old monsters.

Now, it has spread within the Kaiba Group that Fujiki You Xuan and the previous generation Duel King Yugi Wu Teng might have some relationship. At least from this deck, it is said that this person is not only the successor of the title of King, but also the successor of Yugi.

Of course, there are many people who hold opposing opinions. Some people think that You Xuan plays so many decks, changing a deck every few days, and doesn't necessarily use this Gold Sarcophagus deck as his main one.

Plus, You Xuan is now a world-renowned scientific researcher, and many well-known decks and important spirit-related series in the world today are all promoted and developed by him. Some old decks that were once determined to have no future and were eliminated by the era were also excavated by him, glowing with a second spring under the hands of this King.

So the Light of the Gold Sarcophagus series is actually just one of the many decks that have taken off under You Xuan's hands, and it doesn't necessarily have anything special for You Xuan. So opponents also think it is difficult to prove that he has a succession connection with Yugi Wu Teng based on this deck alone.

But one thing is certain. That is, the birth of the Light of the Gold Sarcophagus deck is definitely an important stroke in the research on Yugi's deck over the years, and it is no exaggeration to call it a milestone.

Fika can be said to have lost under the power of two generations of Kings, so at least in the eyes of these Kaiba employees, this person did not lose unjustly.

However, although the duel ended, You Xuan did not retreat. He walked up to Fika and suddenly looked up at the empty space above Fika's head.

"I say, it's about time to show yourself, right?" You Xuan said calmly, "Was the person who dueled me until just now really Dr. Fika? Or should I say, just Dr. Fika?"

As soon as this was said, everyone around was confused, and even Fika himself was stunned, as if he didn't understand what You Xuan was talking about.

The next moment, Dr. Fika's skin suddenly flushed with a sickly red, as if all the blood vessels under his skin had burst, his Adam's apple rolled violently, and the next second—

"Pfft!"

Scarlet mist-like substances poured out from his seven orifices, and those mists twisted into viscous silk in the air, and the floating red mist was multiplying crazily, expanding into a blurry humanoid figure three meters high in the blink of an eye.

The edges of the mist began to solidify, forming a stratum corneum like cooled lava. A pair of wings covered with blood-vessel-like patterns unfolded with a "swish," and unformed red gelatin dripped from the wing membranes. Where the head should have been, there was only a constantly squirming mist mass, occasionally revealing bumps similar to facial features, but they were swallowed by the newly emerging red mist in the next second. The most horrifying thing was its waist—the lower body was completely connected to the doctor's wide-open mouth by a flowing mist column, as if this monster was another self he vomited out.

Everyone was shocked.

What is this? What kind of alien demon is it again?

"Finally willing to show your face." You Xuan said, "I smelled a bit of aura during the duel just now, but I wasn't very sure. After all, Fika had already accepted Barian's power, so it's not strange to have some aura.

But since Heart-eart Dragon was summoned, I was sure that Fika was not just himself. There were other opponents on the opposite side of this duel." You Xuan tilted his head: "Then, let's start with your name. What is your name?"

The red mist-flowing figure snorted coldly: "I am Barian, an existence that transcends you low-class humans..."

"Barian? That would be Vector, right?" You Xuan said.

The red mist was greatly surprised, staring at him with wide eyes in astonishment, suddenly speechless and unable to speak.

It was the same in the anime; when the Barian first appeared in Fika, he called himself "Barian." However, in fact, "Barian" is the name of their race and not a person's name. Judging from the subsequent plot, the "Barian" who controlled Fika was probably the heinous Vector, the only big villain among the Seven Barian Emperors who did all kinds of evil, and also the ZEXAL facial expression representative.

Vector was amazed in his heart. He was wondering before how this otherworldly person You Xuan knew the effects of Heart-eart and Heart-eart Dragon, and at this moment, he even knew the name of himself, one of the Seven Barian Emperors.

How is this possible?

"... I seem to have underestimated you, King of humans." Vector said in a deep voice, "But don't be too proud too early. Fika is just a primer, a chess piece that can be discarded at any time.

There are as many such chess pieces as you want."

He glanced at Fika and snorted coldly.

"But you can be considered to have successfully proven yourself. So... fine, then what happens next is all your own fault, Duel King. Barian's power is infinite, and all that awaits your dimension is a thorough cleansing; no one can stop it, not even you!"

"Oh, is that so?" You Xuan said, "That's perfect, actually I've always wanted to see you guys, and I have some questions to ask.

For example, let's start with why you guys have to target our world? If I remember correctly, shouldn't your mortal enemy be the Astral World?"

This is also a doubt he has always had in his heart. What do the Barians want with the GX dimension?

Shouldn't they be busy fighting the Astral World?

"Why target your dimension? Does this still need a reason?"

Vector's body had begun to become blurry, and it seemed that he was about to disappear—he was not here in his main body, but only left a part of the fragments in Fika's body to facilitate the manipulation of this chess piece.

And this part of the power was about to disappear.

But the remaining power was still enough for him to finish the last sentence.

"As long as we get your world, what is the Astral World?"

Vector's body had gradually disintegrated, leaving only his head and eyes.

"Because your dimension is the center of the infinite universe." ===== CHAPTER 1158 =====
