Chapter 941
"Well done."
Zone looks at Fujiki You Xuan, who has just returned to his realm, and says faintly.
Fujiki You Xuan is currently taking inventory of the cards he just obtained from Zone, or rather, from one of his subordinate research institutes.
Zone is the actual mastermind behind the Iliaster organization, and Iliaster has traveled through various eras of human civilization, establishing quite deep foundations, hiding forces and organizations in every era. Among them, there are naturally some card-printing and dueling-related institutions.
Fujiki You Xuan just received sponsorship from Iliaster at one of these institutions, some new cards he is quite interested in.
For example, an incomplete Tech Genus deck.
As the deck that first revealed the "Accel Synchro" trump card in animation history, Fujiki You Xuan is also a bit interested in Tech Genus. And thanks to Antinomy's important role and high popularity in the anime, Tech Genus also received a certain degree of reinforcement in the future.
Fujiki You Xuan doesn't know what kind of deck Tech Genus is in the future world, whether it's peerlessly rare or actually nothing special like the Heroes of the GX era. But at least Zone has stock on hand; it's just a pity that except for the deck in Antinomy's hands, the stock is incomplete.
Not to mention anything else, the Accel Synchro "Tech Genus Blade Blaster" and the final trump card "Tech Genus Halberd Cannon," such heavyweight big brothers, are missing.
Fujiki You Xuan feels a bit regretful in his heart.
He is still a bit interested in the anime effect of Halberd Cannon, but it's a pity it doesn't seem to be here.
No other reason; Fujiki You Xuan feels that this anime Halberd Cannon has good compatibility with him. It can negate any form of summon three times within one turn, and can even negate the effects of cards that summon monsters.
With such powerful suppression, how happy would it be if it were summoned?
Isn't the most important thing about dueling happiness? Is there anything happier than such a duel?
It's a pity, there isn't.
However, Fujiki You Xuan thinks that Accel Synchro is a special type of trump card in the anime, having already touched upon a transcendent level of power.
According to the settings, one must comprehend the "Heart of Clear Mind" to control Accel Synchro monsters. And even after Yusei obtained Shooting Star Dragon, every time he performed a Synchro Summon for Shooting Star Dragon, he would still pull out a card that was completely blank on the face, and the card art of Shooting Star Dragon would only be printed on it during the Accel Synchro process.
So Fujiki You Xuan boldly guesses that Accel Synchro monsters mostly only reveal themselves when one has comprehended the realm and is in the process of accelerating during the duel.
But Fujiki You Xuan is not very clear about this so-called realm of Clear Mind, and there isn't much in the anime regarding the state of mind to refer to.
Besides Tech Genus, this time Fujiki You Xuan also obtained other unexpected gains.
"There are actually so many of these cards?"
Fujiki You Xuan counts the large handful of Meklord Emperors and various Meklord components in his hand, somewhat surprised.
He had thought that the decks used by executives like the Iliaster Three Emperors might be rare cards. It turned out that not only were they not rare cards, but they were like mass-produced items here at Zone's, with a large pile in stock.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. "Meklord Emperors" were originally mass-produced machines in the ruined future, covering the whole world like locusts.
It is said that the Perpetual Motion Machine was tainted by the darkness of the human heart and began to catastrophically reverse. These machines named "Meklord Emperors" are the machines automatically and batch-manufactured by the reversal of the Perpetual Motion Machine.
In the anime, in the memories of the future quartet, the main opponents of the last resistance organization before humanity's destruction were the Meklord Emperors. This thing was like the Terminator in the apocalypse, densely covering the entire earth, erasing humans everywhere. It was as if the Perpetual Motion Machine judged humanity to be the virus leading the world to darkness, and the Meklord Emperors were the antibodies existing to eliminate the virus.
However, when Zone assimilated his personality with Yusei's, also comprehended the realm of "Clear Mind," and summoned Shooting Star Dragon, one could see that in front of the Zone and Shooting Star Dragon of that time, all the Meklord Emperors were paralyzed.
This also precisely proves the correctness of Yusei's theory—using the correct heart to guide the Perpetual Motion Machine and opening up the path of dueling can stop the reversal of the Perpetual Motion Machine and prevent the arrival of destruction.
Zone has already transported the stone tablets engraved with the information of the three Meklord Emperor decks from the future to this era. As long as those three tablets exist, mass-producing Meklord Emperor decks is not a difficult task.
Fujiki You Xuan isn't too keen on the Meklord Emperor decks used by the Iliaster trio in the anime. The reasons have been mentioned before.
Admittedly, Meklord Emperors can absorb Synchro monsters and can change different components to obtain multiple powerful monster effects; it sounds very awesome at first glance.
However, they are so damn prone to bricking.
The basic form of a Meklord Emperor has five parts, five monster cards. And these cannot be drawn into the hand; one must draw the Meklord Emperor Core, and then must use a card-destroying effect to destroy the Core to special summon the five parts from the deck; the conditions are excessively harsh.
Of course, a Fate Power Warrior won't brick, and the Three Emperors in the anime didn't brick while using such difficult-to-use decks. However, even excluding the issue of hand accidents, the terrifyingly large number of dead cards occupying deck slots in the entire Meklord Emperor system is also daunting.
Even from the perspective of anime deck construction, if the system itself occupies such a huge number of slots, it means crowding out space for other cards of unknown significance.
In the anime, if your deck cannot carry cards of unknown significance that can deal with various bizarre situations, it means your upper limit is lowered. Perhaps it's fine in most cases, but even if you only encounter a field that the entire deck can't get past in a life-or-death match once, you might just hang.
So Fujiki You Xuan isn't keen on this combined Meklord Emperor deck from the anime. However, he is still interested in the "Synchro Killer" series itself; after all, being able to steal any Synchro monster is indeed a massacre in the current Synchro Dimension.
Fujiki You Xuan actually feels that the physical-card-version Meklord Emperors are better. One Meklord Emperor is one card, and the summoning condition is "can be special summoned when a monster on your field is destroyed by an effect and sent to the graveyard."
Although it doesn't have the five parts and a bunch of monster effects like the Meklord Emperors in the anime, it still retains the most important characteristic of "being able to absorb the opponent's Synchro monsters." Having this is enough.
Fujiki You Xuan roughly counts his gains. Zone watches him quietly for a moment, then suddenly says: "Meklord Emperors, you seem interested in this."
"It's alright. After all, since they are called 'Synchro Killers,' studying them is better than being unprepared."
Fujiki You Xuan puts away the cards he gained and looks up at Zone.
"Alright, then can I ask about your next plan?"
Zone ponders for a moment, then says: "We are going to hold the world's top riding tournament, the WRGP, in this dimension just one month from now."
Fujiki You Xuan is surprised.
One month, so soon?
