Chapter 829
"It's incredible, Director!"
Fujiki You Xuan was sitting in the Director's office of the Security Maintenance Bureau at this time. In the projection screen showing off wealth in front of him was a doctor in a white coat with an exaggerated expression, his voice sharp and full of excitement.
"Ever since you let me pay attention to the duel between Yusei Fudo and Jack Atlas in the dueling hall that night, the operation of the mo~ment has reached an incredible peak!"
Moment, that is the name of the perpetual motion machine that is the heart of the new New Domino City today. That perpetual motion machine is located in the underground facility of the Kaiba Corporation, providing inexhaustible energy for the entire city.
And the one talking to Fujiki You Xuan at this time is Dr. Akutsu, the person in charge of the Moment department. Akutsu is a super genius in perpetual motion machine research; he is so obsessed with the development of perpetual motion machines that he is almost fanatical, so every time he calls "moment," he always likes to drag out the syllables, as if he can express his love for it.
"Although it has dropped in the past few days, the numbers are still very beautiful," Akutsu said excitedly. "I have a premonition that our research on the moment might have a new breakthrough in the near future!"
"Hmm, probably. The Fortune Cup will open in a few days."
Fujiki You Xuan said to him calmly.
"At that time, the moment will probably have a more obvious reaction. At that time, be sure to pay close attention to the operation of the moment at any time, and any fluctuations must be reported to me immediately."
Akutsu stood at attention: "Understood, Director!"
The operation of the moment is closely related to card playing, and the duels of the Signers will even more stimulate the soaring energy of the moment. If it is within a certain limit, huge energy is naturally a good thing. But if it exceeds the load, it may trigger the tragedy of the zero-point reversal of that year again, and it wouldn't be strange to blow up this entire city.
The Fortune Cup is imminent, and of course, just a few Signers are not enough. In the past two days, Fujiki You Xuan also let Deputy Director Ye Ge run around a bit more to recruit duel experts from all over the place to participate.
Although they are called experts, of course, they don't really expect them to defeat the Signers of the protagonist group. The real task of these experts is actually to be experience packs; their biggest role is to send experience to the protagonists, or through fierce duels, or through psychological offensives, no matter what means, just stimulate their ability awakening.
The matter of finding experience packs was entirely handed over to Ye Ge, and Fujiki You Xuan didn't ask about it himself. He had been busy running to the card printing development department for the past two days.
5D's is an era of rapid development of Synchro, and most of the current card research institutes are also mainly focused on Synchro. Many well-known Synchro monsters and Synchro Decks were created in this era.
Fujiki You Xuan sifted through the sand, and in the past two days, he dug out a series from a pile of projects in the research institute that had no future, which he saw potential in.
Scrap.
Although named Scrap, this Deck was not scrap at all in the early Synchro era, and it was once a powerful Deck that was T1 in the environment.
The main feature of the Scrap Deck is self-destruction, a Deck that unfolds through self-destruction. The series feature is to use the effects of "Scrap" cards to destroy their own "Scrap" cards, and these cards can trigger various effects when destroyed by Scrap cards, thereby launching a dense offensive.
Compared to the main Deck, the big brother of the Extra Deck's Synchro monsters, "Scrap Dragon," should be the most famous one in that environment.
Scrap Dragon, Level 8 Synchro, the Synchro material only needs one or more Tuners and non-Tuner monsters, there is no restriction that Scrap monsters must be used, no material requirements, so it can be randomly added to any mainstream Deck.
2800 ATK, the effect is once per turn, choose one card on your field and one on the opponent's field, and destroy the chosen cards together. In the early Synchro environment, it is almost the best general-purpose violent card-destroying Synchro plug-in, very powerful.
In addition, when Scrap Dragon is destroyed by the opponent and sent to the Graveyard, it can also choose a Scrap monster in its own Graveyard to revive back to the field, ensuring sustainability. It is a Level 8 Synchro with excellent single-card performance. Back then, as long as there was a mainstream Deck capable of producing Level 8 Synchro, it would almost always consider bringing Scrap Dragon.
While stocking up in the Synchro Research Institute... Ah, no, it should be called inspection now. Fujiki You Xuan was having a great time soaking in the warehouse when he suddenly heard a muffled voice from the side.
"Speaking of which, there are so many guys called 'Synchro Monsters' in this era, and they look better to use one by one. You wouldn't have a new love and then change your heart, forgetting all of us, right?"
Fujiki You Xuan glanced behind him; the one speaking was the eye floating in mid-air. But now everyone already knew it was Marshmacaron.
"How could that be?"
Fujiki You Xuan said while smiling and stuffing another card into the card box.
"For a duelist, every card is unique and irreplaceable."
"You are all my wings."
Marshmacaron squinted: "Yee, this sounds very unreliable."
"Did you specifically pop out just to say this?"
Fujiki You Xuan didn't even lift his head and continued to pick cards.
"That's not it," Marshmacaron said. "Just a reminder, some ominous aura has started to appear in your city since just now."
Fujiki You Xuan's movements paused, and he frowned: "Ominous aura?"
"Yes. Well, but it's actually on the other side of the river," Marshmacaron said. "Can that side no longer be counted as being in this city?"
The other side of the river... Satellite, huh.
Fujiki You Xuan temporarily put down the card in his hand and pondered for a moment.
He remembered that Satellite was the main battlefield for the battle between Signers and Dark Signers. The base camp of the awakened Dark Signers seemed to be set in Satellite. And they preached and brainwashed in Satellite, controlling and gathering many residents of Satellite, to be used as soul bait for them to summon Earthbound Immortals at that time.
But the Dark Signers should have started their actions after the Fortune Cup ended and the Signers had all appeared.
Could it be that this is also part of the deviation of history? Have the Dark Signers started their actions ahead of schedule?
Marshmacaron looked at him: "What do you say, Boss?"
"Better go and see."
Fujiki You Xuan set off toward the door.
And at this very moment, Satellite.
An abandoned factory, moonlight leaked in from the broken dome, condensing into pale frost on the rusty conveyor belt. The air was full of the fishy smell of a mixture of machine oil and damp moss.
Residents of Satellite passed by here, stopping one after another, curiously casting their eyes on the ruins of this dilapidated factory.
In the center of the factory, an altar appeared.
A trapezoidal altar, entrenched in the center of the factory area, long bluestone steps broke through the soil from between the rusty stamping machine tools. Bronze fire basins hung below the twisted steel beams, and ghostly green tongues of fire licked the faded safety production slogans.
The residents of Satellite looked at each other.
Was there this thing in this factory before?
Under the moonlight, in the hazy fog, there seemed to be a figure on the top of the altar.
The man was wearing a cloak, riding a horse, looking up into the distance, the cloak fluttering in the wind behind him, like a general from ancient times.
The general made a vicissitudinous sound.
"It's about time to come, right?"
