I'm playing cards in Yu-Gi-Oh!

"So, I heard you've already met Mr. Bekas?"

The time is nine o'clock in the evening. Mr. Phoenix was on the phone with You Yu while leading his son on the way home from the company.

Little Ed jumped up and down, as if he could hope to hear what was being said on the phone if he jumped higher.

"Ah, it's approved." You Yu said, "Mr. Bekas hopes that I can help in the development of the 'Elemental Heroes' series, and he also said that he would design a new deck for me."

"Oh? That's really congratulations. Mr. Bekas usually doesn't design it himself easily these days." Mr. Phoenix said, "But often only the cards he designs himself are the best."

This is true. It is well known in the duel monster world that the card of the three phantom gods, which is the symbol of this realm, was created by Bekas.

And before Becas, all the designers who had worked on the production of the Three Illusion God cards were either dead or crazy. Only Becas, who had the power of the Millennium Eye, was able to complete this work.

The attack power and text description of the duel monster card are not something that the creator can write at will based on his own wishes. The effect and strength of each card generally depends on the strength of the extraordinary power contained in the card.

As many people now know, Duel Monsters was not originally a card game, but an ancient ritual handed down from ancient Egypt.

At that time, the card spirits were all sealed in stone slabs. The duelists at that time directly competed for the strength of the spirits. There was no such thing as attack power, defense power or effect description.

In the card games that have developed into today's era, the attack power and effect text of each card are all embodied by the power contained in the card under the constraints of the rules of the card game called "Duel Monsters" Performance.

The simplest example is the three phantom gods. Of course, it is impossible for the Phantom God to allow the designer to write random effect text on his card. Even if he writes a wrong word, or if any of the effect descriptions dissatisfies the Phantom God, he may immediately receive a gift package of divine punishment.

So if I must say it, in fact, 80% of the effects of the Three Illusion God Cards were printed by the three of them themselves. A more detailed explanation is that the power of God is embodied in the text under the rules of the Duel Monsters game, so it has a powerful effect of destroying the balance of the game in the current environment.

Occasionally, there are powerful elves like Blue Eyes White Dragon, Red Eyes Black Dragon, and Black Magician. The cards they represent appear to have average attack power or even mortal bones. This is just because the power of the elves has not been fully developed.

Regardless of Blue Eyes, Red Eyes or Black Magician, the power of the spirit is not just sealed in the card itself. They have a large set of matching series cards, and there are also follow-up vests such as the Super Magical Dragon Knight and the Blue-Eyed Chaos Extreme Dragon. These are also the potential powers of the elves.

"Speaking of which," You Yu asked, "how is the development of your Destiny Hero going?"

Mr. Phoenix smiled mysteriously: "Well, we have made considerable progress since the last duel with you. In fact, to tell you the truth, a card that has been under development recently has been finally completed.

This is a work that I am quite proud of, and it should be the highest achievement I can achieve as a designer in my life. This card is the final form of the Destiny Hero in my fantasy, and its meaning to me is the same as the Three Illusion Gods to Mr. Bekas..."

When You Yu heard this, his expression changed slightly.

Hey, hey, if you put it this way, could that card be...

At this point in the conversation, Mr. Phoenix's voice on the other end of the phone suddenly changed: "Who are you? What are you doing? Ed, come behind me..."

"..."

The sound ends here.

You Yu raised his voice and shouted into the phone for a long time, but he didn't get any reply. All he got back was an unsettling busy signal.

You Yu put down the phone and frowned.

From what Mr. Phoenix said on the phone just now, it seems that the card known as the "Ultimate D", Destiny Hero Blood Demon D, has been completed at this time.

In the animation time and space, a third-rate duelist named D.D. killed Mr. Phoenix and took the Blood Demon D's card from his hand. Later, D.D. was possessed by the huge evil power sealed in the Blood Demon D card, and sold his soul to the devil in exchange for extremely powerful power.

Obviously, this murderer gained enough "power" through Blood Demon D's card to instantly become a high-star duelist. After that, he transformed from a third-rate duelist who was too poor to eat to become a world champion, and maintained the title for the next ten years, becoming a legend in the professional dueling league.

But You Yu remembered that in Yu-Gi-Oh GX's memory, it should have been a home invasion robbery, and the location should have been at Mr. Phoenix's house.

Could it be that the changes in the world line have caused subtle changes in the events in the original time and space?

But now he didn't have time to think too much. After You Yu hung up the phone, he dialed Nightcrawler World immediately.

President Tang Zegui quickly answered the phone: "Hello? You Yu? What's going on?"

It sounded like he was at the base, because the background sound behind him was extremely noisy. You Yu heard a rough voice singing at the top of his lungs, and vaguely heard a big man yelling angrily, "Who just took off my pants?"...

...Just by listening to the sound, you can imagine a group of brothers singing and dancing.

You Yu got straight to the point: "I need to track a phone number, a person I just called half a minute ago. I need to know the location of the other person as soon as possible."

"Huh? Oh...Okay, just wait a moment."

Although the Nightcrawler World is a card-playing club that seems to be developing into a macho club, in fact it is still a dark duelist organization, involved in many industries and fields, and there is no shortage of first-class hackers.

Even dark duelists have to keep pace with the times.

Modern technology is so advanced, the Dark Duelists were pleasantly surprised to find that there are still many things that can be solved through methods other than playing cards...

With You Yu's current reputation and status within the organization, what resources to use is naturally a matter of words. President Tang Zegui didn't even ask about the ins and outs of the matter and the reasons, and directly arranged for his request.

…

"Dad...Dad." Little Ed shrank behind his father in fear and hugged his legs.

What appeared in front of them was a shabbily dressed uncle with a beard all over his chin. He wore a pair of cracked glasses on the bridge of his nose. Behind the lenses were beast-like and dangerous eyes, with a faint scarlet light flashing in the pupils.

Mr. Phoenix asked in a deep voice: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"

The uncle laughed gloomily twice and slowly raised his arm... and the duel plate on his arm.

"Let's duel." The uncle said coldly, "...take that ultimate card as a bet!"
