Chapter 792
The morning sun gently sprinkled on the city's skyline, golden light shone through the gaps between the prosperous high-rise buildings, plating this former duel capital with a thin layer of golden gauze.
Public Security Bureau subordinate department, Card Research Institute.
"Director!"
"Director Godwin!"
Two researchers passing by in the corridor stood at attention and saluted.
Fujiki You Xuan, or rather, should be Godwin now, walked past the two, waved his hand casually, signaling them to do whatever they should do.
In this era, the Public Security Bureau can almost be said to be the highest power agency in this city. The former director Godwin controlled almost all the important resources in this city, from politics to economy, scientific research to people's livelihood.
And this agency does not take orders from the upper political circles, but is basically secretly controlled by an organization called "Tai-I." In the original work, Godwin as the early boss seemed to be doing whatever he wanted, but later it was discovered that his actions had never been out of Tai-I's control, and he was just a puppet. Tai-I's power penetrated into all aspects of the world, and its control over this era was almost no less than the Doma that appeared in the DM period.
And the true identity of this organization is actually the future people from the broken future timeline, which is Paradox and his group. They traveled through time back to the past to change history and established this organization.
Although Godwin was secretly controlled by Tai-I, it was precisely because of this that the Public Security Bureau became the pinnacle of power in this city.
And one of the benefits of being the director of this agency is that it makes some originally rare resources easily accessible.
For example, a large number of rare cards.
Since the birth of the perpetual motion machine Moment, the development of Duel Monsters in this world has also been combined with the perpetual motion machine. Synchro Monsters and Moment are complementary relationships, and the Public Security Bureau manages the core perpetual motion machine of this city, so naturally, it cooperated with the Kaiba Corporation of this era to establish a specialized Card Research Institute.
Yes, the Kaiba Corporation is still there in this era, but because Seto Kaiba is missing, at least its influence in New Domino City is not as good as the dimension Fujiki You Xuan is familiar with. The 5D's anime only mentioned the name of Kaiba Corporation in the early stage, and it never appeared again throughout the whole story, and its presence is not high.
After soaking in the card warehouse inside the Public Security Bureau for a whole morning, Fujiki You Xuan gained a lot.
Not to mention anything else, like the Synchro deck of Yusei Fudo in the protagonist group, and the Blackwings of Crow Hogan, as long as he saw the components, Fujiki You Xuan naturally collected one of each first. Most of the cards in these decks are not rare, and the threshold for entry is not high, and it is not difficult to collect a set as long as there are enough financial resources and resources.
And these two decks are top mainstream in the reality Synchro era, and the other is a world champion. Still the same sentence, Fujiki You Xuan still doesn't understand why Yusei would pick up such a strong deck in the garbage dump...
But Yusei can even hand-craft a perpetual motion machine in the garbage dump, so maybe even the garbage in this era should not be underestimated.
Another thing that made his eyes light up was some scattered "Ice Barrier" cards.
Ice Barrier was also very active in the Synchro era, but compared to the deck itself, this series is more famous for the Synchro Monster that almost everyone likes to splash in the mainstream environment.
For example, this one as a representative, Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier.
Level 6 Synchro, no summoning conditions such as attribute or race, as long as you gather six stars, you can summon, and the 2300 ATK is not weak. But the most important thing is the monster effect that was extremely heaven-defying in the environment at that time.
Discard any number of cards from your hand, and you can bounce the corresponding number of cards on the field back to the holder's hand.
Yes, there is no limit to the number of cards discarded at one time, and you can bounce any number of cards on the field in one breath. What's more terrifying is that this effect doesn't say once per turn.
This is also why competitive card players in the Synchro era should have felt the power of Brionac more or less, and why this card was subsequently imprisoned. Of course, today the big brother has been released from prison, and after being castrated, the restriction of "the effect of this card name can only be used once per turn" has been added. Castration plus the overall game environment has changed a lot from the beginning, so after being released from prison, it no longer has the glory of the past.
But Brionac in this era is still very powerful.
Another Ice Barrier big brother who is as famous as Brionac is "Trishula, Dragon of the Ice Barrier."
Level 9 Synchro, requires a Tuner monster plus at least two other monsters to Synchro Summon. When the Synchro Summon is successful, select up to one card each from the opponent's hand, field, and Graveyard and banish them.
Needless to say, anyone who was forked nine cards by three Trishulas in one turn back then will not forget that fear.
But it's a pity that Fujiki You Xuan wandered around for a long time and only found one Brionac, and couldn't find Trishula big brother after spending most of the day.
Afterward, with the help of the supercomputer of the Public Security Bureau, he checked all the known card information collected by the Public Security Bureau worldwide, and finally confirmed that Trishula big brother seems to have not been born in this world yet...
Fujiki You Xuan frowned.
Something is wrong. He remembers that although it was only for a moment in the anime, Trishula seemed to appear in the hands of a passerby, and was even called a "top rare card."
Could it be that the dimension he is in is different from the anime original he remembers, or maybe the Ice Barrier development team hasn't developed it yet.
So Fujiki You Xuan then checked the team that developed Brionac, and learned who made these Ice Barrier cards. After checking, he found that those guys were not doing their jobs properly, and instead of developing the promising Ice Barrier, they all changed direction and ran to develop some series with unclear meanings in the early Synchro era...
Even their latest work is "Lapis Dragon," a Level 6 vanilla Tuner monster, which is completely meaningless compared to Brionac...
Fujiki You Xuan was very dissatisfied with this.
!
So he immediately summoned this group of developers according to the summons, and gave them a reprimand. Saying they were taking wages and not doing things, fishing and paddling all day, and hadn't seen any output for so long, etc.
It made several experts unable to react.
The experts looked at each other, and saw confusion in each other's eyes—
—Since when did our director start caring about card printing?
Although they were all subordinate departments of the Public Security Bureau, the director didn't ask about the affairs of their development departments in the past. Mainly because although Godwin could play cards, he really didn't know much about card R&D, and it was not easy to point fingers.
So what's the situation today?
What's more unexpected is that after the reprimand, the director gave an innovative idea for the first time today, saying that the Ice Barrier developed before has a future, and suggested that they put aside what they have on hand and concentrate on studying this.
And although it was an idea, the director described it to them in a logical way, including what direction the deck should attack and how to strengthen it, and even wanted to name several cards and describe them to them.
Several people didn't take it seriously at first, but then they felt more and more surprised as they listened.
If it was just a rough direction, that's fine, but how could the director describe so many new cards that hadn't even been proposed for development ideas so accurately?
After some instructions, he dismissed several people to work, and Fujiki You Xuan sighed.
Sure enough, card printing is the primary productive force, and he still has to worry about it himself when he reaches the new world.
He has already started to think that maybe he should consider developing the card printing business to more dimensions later.
