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

Chapter 404: Toward the future

Chestnut ball! ! !

The fluffy little guy "Kuri Kuri" screamed twice and appeared, and his body expanded rapidly, as if forming an indestructible wall in front of the three of them.

The seven-color beam of rainbow dragon's concentrated attack was poured out on the enlarged chestnut ball without reservation. The energy was raging like a storm, violently surging out towards the surrounding sinful space, but it was completely lost like a torrent hitting a dam. You can't shake the chestnut ball even a little bit.

"Discard the 'Chestnut Ball' from your hand." You Yu said, "The damage in one battle can be reduced to 0."

Paradox gritted his teeth: "Have you been blocked again?"

You Yu smiled: "After all, I am also the duel king of this era, and I am not so easy to deal with."

"As expected of Mr. Yu Yu." Yu Xing said at the right time.

"Hmph, then set a card and the turn is over." Paradox hummed.

"At the end of the round, the effect of the Stardust Dragon in the cemetery is activated." You Yu said, "The Stardust Dragon used as a sacrifice through its own effect will return to the field at the end of the round."

In fact, they used "Resurrection of the Dead" to resurrect the Stardust Dragon from Paradox's cemetery. Theoretically speaking, in this duel, the wielder of the Stardust Dragon was Paradox.

According to the rules of playing cards that You Yu is familiar with, Stardust Dragon should be resurrected here and go to the opposite field.

However, in the theatrical version, after Yami Yugi used the magic card effect to snatch Stardust Dragon away, Stardust Dragon activated its own effect as a sacrifice to be released, and at the end of the round, it still returned to the field of the three seafood-headed protagonists.

Although You Yu, who talks nonsense, doesn't have the creativity to learn from it, he still has no problem imitating Wang Yangyi.

Perhaps this can be explained by the "bond between the Stardust Dragon and its master". In short, the silver-white dragon returned to the field in front of You Yu with a burst of shining starlight, raising his head and angrily facing Paradox Roar.

[Stardust Dragon, attack power 2500]

[Sin·True Dragon, attack power 4400 → attack power 6000]

Even though the three duelist kings on the opposite side only had 300 LP left, and even triggering the effect of Sin·True Dragon once more was enough to kill them instantly, but now, Paradox only felt more and more uneasy.

It felt as if victory was leaving him little by little.

He thought about the consciousness he had when he came, the deep despair of the era he came from, and the expectations of his companions who remained in the future era, and he couldn't help but clenched his fists in annoyance.

"Do you duelist kings have to fight to the death?" He said coldly, "You are simply the most obvious representatives of stupid humans in the past! You are self-righteous and think that what you see is correct, but you don't know that it is exactly what you did What we are doing is leading mankind to the abyss of destruction!”

"What on earth are you talking about?" Yusei frowned, "What exactly happened in the future you mentioned?"

"Now that we've come this far, it doesn't hurt to tell you."

As if to have a moment of respite during this high-intensity battle, Paradox put down the duel disk and said calmly.

“If we were to trace back to the earliest starting point of the disaster, it should be the modern resurrection of this stupid thing called ‘Duel Monsters’.

But the real outbreak of the disaster began, Yusei, this is all because your father developed the perpetual motion machine called 'Ment' because of Dr. Fudo, which led to the birth of such stupid things called 'Synchronic Monsters', which directly led to the demise of mankind. "

"What!?" Yusei was surprised and swept his arms, "Impossible! Ment is the light of hope that guides human progress, and the Synchro Monsters are proof of it."

"Legend has it that Atlantis, which ushered in the heyday of civilization 10,000 years ago, also thought that the artifact named 'Olihagon' was the hope to guide human progress." Paradox sneered, "But What happened to Atlantis after that?"

Advertising, I am using a reading app recently, [app ] has many book sources, complete books, and updates quickly!

Yusei gritted his teeth: "That's different."

"There is no difference. Rather, you are not qualified to say that, Fudo Yusei, because I am the person from that future." Paradox said coldly, "In the final analysis, everything is still because of the desires of the human heart.

You should know what you are saying, Fudo Yusei. Ment is not just a perpetual motion machine, it also receives feedback from people's hearts while it is running.

In the future, human beings' desires will expand more and more, and the dark side of people's hearts will gradually become more and more uncontrollable, eventually leading to the loss of control of the world's perpetual motion machines and the end of human history. "

After a pause, he smiled miserably.

"Just like the destruction of Atlantis ten thousand years ago."

"So you are going to modify history and make that future disappear?" Judai asked.

"That's right."

"But if you do this, the timeline you are in will also collapse." Yusei said, "You and your companions, all traces of your birth into this world will be directly wiped out from existence. Even so. Doesn't matter?"

"It doesn't matter." Paradox didn't hesitate at all, "Let the future of mankind continue. This is the mission that we, the last humans in history, must complete.

As long as we can prevent the ruined future, even if the cost is our disappearance, we won't hesitate. "

Even though they were on opposite sides, Paradox's determination still moved the Duel Kings.

You have to save the future no matter what, even if you try your best to create a future where you don’t have a place for yourself?

You Yu, who had been silent at this time, spoke: "So, how do you know that as long as the existence of duel monsters is eradicated, the future will definitely become better?"

"I don't know."

Paradox smiled miserably.

"But at least it can't get worse." He said, "At least my efforts can bring some relief in the future. At least mankind has new possibilities, and the future may continue."

"But maybe humans will just repeat the same mistakes in the new future that you sacrificed yourself to create." You Yu said, "But by that time, you no longer exist. In that case, who can come? How about correcting the mistake again?”

Paradox frowned: "If that's the case, I believe that in that new future, there will be people like me and my companions who will stand up and correct the mistakes at the expense of themselves."

"Then you are passing the responsibility of 'being the last human being' to others." You Yu said.

"What did you say!?" Paradox frowned and his face darkened.

He couldn't accept You Yu's casual denial of all the efforts of himself and his companions.

"Then tell me, do you have a better way!?" He almost shouted.

"No one can say for sure what a better way is." Judai was silent for a moment, rarely put away his usual cheerful smile, and said seriously, "But you just said it, right? It's the fundamental reason why the future will be ruined. The reason is the darkness of people’s hearts.”

"That's right." Paradox said, "The growing darkness in human hearts fed back to the perpetual motion machine, producing an extremely large amount of negative energy, which eventually exploded and led to the demise of human civilization.

That's why I want to eliminate all this from its source. Without the existence of such stupid things as 'Duel Monsters', Ment would never have been invented, and this history of destruction would cease to exist. "

"But if it's like what you said, then stop it, what you do won't be useful." Judai shook his head.

"What?"

"Although I can't say that I understand the darkness of the human heart, it's not that simple."

While speaking, Judai gently closed his eyes. When he opened them again, his eyes had turned into shining pupils of different colors. Although his tone was still calm, there seemed to be a powerful aura like that of an ancient king, which even made Paradox afraid to look directly at him.

"May I ask you a question?"

"What?" Paradox responded subconsciously.

For some reason, at this moment, he suddenly felt that he did not dare to disobey this young man.

"Trash dropped on the roadside, people who see it but don't pick it up, or people who don't see it so they don't pick it up, which one is wrong?"

Paradox frowned: "The one who saw it but didn't pick it up."

"That's right. That's how I answered when I encountered this question." Judai looked down at his hands and said softly, "But someone told me at the time that it was probably the person who didn't pick it up because he couldn't see it. wrong.

Because those who see the fallen garbage may pick it up at some time, but those who do not see it will never pick it up. "

"What nonsense is this?" Paradox snorted, "Does it make sense to say such a thing?"

"Yes." Judai nodded seriously, "The darkness in people's hearts can never be eliminated. Whether you ignore it or escape, it will always be there, and it will always continue to grow and develop.

No one can take on this for you. After all, people have to learn to face and accept their own darkness.

If the root cause of the destruction of the world lies in the darkness that grows within human beings themselves, then your actions of eliminating duel monsters and modifying history are actually meaningless.

Even if you strangle the Duel Monsters game in the cradle, sacrifice your own existence and prevent the emergence of perpetual motion machines, as long as the people in that new timeline are still the type of people who 'can't see the trash, so they don't pick it up' , history will still repeat itself an infinite number of times. "

"You" Paradox's eyes widened and he was speechless for a moment.

"Tenth generation senior" Yusei looked at this senior with a complicated expression, feeling mixed emotions for a moment.

Although Judai's words were addressed to Paradox, they also touched Yusei greatly.

It may even vaguely untie the knot that Yusei had buried deep in his heart for a long time.

You Yu looked at his future student and was speechless for a moment.

He was probably the only person present who understood how much Yucheng Judai had gone through to grow from an ignorant and optimistic young man to what he is today.

Although he seems to be as cheerful, enthusiastic, and dueling-minded as before, inside he is actually completely different from when he first entered school in the GX chapter.

Could it be that what he said to Paradox was not his most profound insight?

But indeed, what Judai said here is inexplicably consistent with the ending of 5DS.

No matter whether you destroy the duel monsters or the perpetual motion machine, you can't really solve the problem after all. What should really be saved is the human heart.

After all, even if the duel monsters are destroyed, who can guarantee that the future will be different?

Even if there is no Synchro Summoning or Galloping Duel in the future, there is no telling whether humans in the new timeline will invent some kind of "Galloping Landlord" or "Galloping Mahjong" and still destroy the world.

"What's the point of saying this now!?" Paradox gritted his teeth and waved his hand, "The duel is still going on, and I am only one step away from success! You have the last 300 LP left, as long as I Win this duel and all this will cease to exist!"

Just in time, it's Yusei's turn next.

After listening to Judai's words, Yusei closed his eyes, seemingly lost in thought and realization.

"Mr. You Yu, senior tenth generation, thank you. I am no longer confused."

Yusei opened his eyes again, and the red dragon mark on the back of his hand shone through the clothes. Dazzling red marks appeared on his back one after another, forming a closed circuit and forming a red dragon pattern with its body coiled up.

The top card in his deck lit up with a dazzling golden light!

"My turn, draw a card!" Yusei drew the card and said loudly, "Paradox! Our future will continue, and so will humanity!

This is the answer given by us as people in the past! "
