The spirit system behind the game king

"I want you to care..." Fudo Naoki put the coffee cup on the chairman's desk with a "boom", "You said everything I wanted to say, forcing me to drink your coffee Out of anger; I don’t understand this thing——I still don’t understand it. It’s an extraordinary period, and the rumors outside have not dissipated. These days, everyone is living on a tight schedule. Why are you suddenly Do this again? What if something goes wrong..."

"Risks always coexist with opportunities; (very softly) what's more, some of the things outside are actually true..." Haima looked down, and sure enough the coffee cup was empty, "What a waste... Forget it, Let’s not talk about this. Hey, do you know why I had to take such a big risk and suddenly change to the brawl mode? Let me tell you clearly: among the people who think I’m doing something wrong, the research institute is actually the least disturbed .”

"Huh?" Fudo Naoki felt that he was already messing around, but he didn't expect there to be more messy?

"Well, but I persuaded them to go back." Knowing that Naoki Fudo is a pure scientist, Seto Kaiba didn't tell him the details—he didn't want to understand this kind of thing if he talked too much, but would only understand it. I felt like I was talking too much nonsense, "I think you should have received more or less news on the way here, right? I hope this new competition system can set a precedent in this KC Cup, otherwise if someone else does it first Similar competitions, our authority will be hit - this is extremely detrimental to our future plans, and it is easy to increase the trend of bad-mouthing the Haima Group."

After Kaiba finished speaking, he took out a document from his briefcase and handed it to Fudo Naoki to read.

"...Is it possible that those are really not rumors?" Holding the document, remembering the news that he heard from the executives of other departments on the road, Fudo Naoki frowned, "But, even This is true, and it doesn’t look like something you would support—I often see you, the president, testing the machine yourself, and your duel style is all that powerful and offensive, and this competition system..."

"Why not?" Haima asked back: "Strong attack is not contradictory to this kind of competition, isn't it? And I remember that the duel that many audiences were most dissatisfied with in the previous 'Duel City' was the duel between me and Dongfenggu. Megumi's fight—although the two of us felt that we were matched, but in the eyes of outsiders, that kind of duel was really bad; and it was a very bad start in the dueling world."

Fudo Naoki naturally knows this: the current mainstream view in the dueling world is the same, that is, Kaiba Seto met an opponent who restrained him, and that's what a duel is like; Those star players in the city compiled something like a "restraint chain", which is widely circulated among today's duelists.

"But that's just a game, as long as you adjust the restricted card table..." The scientist gave his own idea, but he knew that the end of doing so might be bad, so his voice became smaller and smaller , In the end Fudo Naoki himself shook his head, "No...it can't be like this, no one is a fool, relying on the restricted card list to make the card groups that appear in the game match your 'needs' will only make this The lifespan of the game has dropped sharply; but even so, I feel that adding such a greatly modified format all of a sudden will be too big a step, and one mistake will hurt."

"So, I just want to try this prototype this time." After Naoki Fudo finished reading the information, Kaiba took it back, but the first page of the information fell to the ground because the scientist's hand was shaking a little. The reason for this large-scale overtime disturbance is written - it's just a seemingly simple name:

"Resolution on Adding the "Gorgeous Contest" Item to the KC Cup"

Chapter 5: The Crucian Carp Crossing the River

In the west of the United States, in a building that originally belonged to Doma, Tosaka Tokiomi in a red suit had just left the meeting room and saw Li Zheng who had returned here at some point in his office: he is still possessed now. In the armor made of "Oliha Gang Magic Metal", it looks like an ultra-ancient alchemy puppet.

Although other people, no matter whether they are spirit bodies or intelligent life from another world, can live in the real world through the power of the Spirit Temple or various other "black technologies", but this world has a great influence on Li Zheng's life. Restrictions seem surprisingly numerous.

"Yo, I'm back." Tokiomi Papa has long been used to the armor Li Zheng, and knowing that he only had an interview with Haima today, he had already expected that Li Zheng would come here, "I know what you want to ask , went very smoothly, and encountered no obstacles."

"Didn't you fight? I'm actually only worried about this, and I can talk about everything else." He Jiali Zheng nodded. It was hard for him to understand that the two people had different beliefs—the idealist magician and the materialist inventor. The communication between them is like nitroglycerin meeting thermite, which makes people feel that it will explode... But in fact, judging from Tokiomi's current state, it is clear that he has not encountered any trouble at all.

"Haha, I knew you would be worried, but it's okay." Tosaka Tokiomi said frankly: "Actually, since you told me about this problem from the very beginning, boss, I just avoided these problems." It's a mess—we only talked about duels and gorgeous duels during the whole negotiation, and didn't touch on issues that would make both parties unhappy. Looking at Seto Kaiba... I have to admire that he is really good at languages Art, on the premise that he didn't know my tendencies, he didn't mention those things very tacitly."

"..." Although the current armored Li Zheng has no eyes and can't make an expression, Tokiomi can hear from his telepathic tone that the current Li Zheng is a little surprised. In the face of major issues related to the outlook on life, Kaiba and Tokiomi were able to avoid confrontation through their superb communication skills—it has to be said that there is a reason why some people can be so successful in their careers , "Forget it, let's leave this question alone; do you have any requests for the next plan?"

Regarding Li Zheng's question, Tosaka Tokiomi shrugged and said, "A request? My only request is that boss, you should quickly find a contractor, otherwise you will always use this armor to act—I know that you are a boss." Those who didn’t know thought you were a mass-produced trash.”

"Are you the kind of uncle who forces marriage..." Tokiomi Papa's answer made Li Zheng's face full of black lines, and he changed the way of asking: "I mean, the kind of 'magnificent contest' you told me 'Is there no doubt about the idea? Although I personally feel that it has been clearly written in the document."

"If you have doubts, there have been. At first glance, such activities seem a bit messy, but if you think about it carefully, if the situation is really like what you said in the document, the time to do so is probably only now... In this regard, the undead magician from another world frowned, "My only doubt is why you must think that the future situation will develop as you said? Why must it become a 'storyteller and pit' era'? I remember that z-one mentioned it... But even the era he mentioned is much more optimistic than what you wrote in the document; but what you wrote is very detailed and vivid, as if ..."

"'It's as if I lived in that era', isn't that right?" When the magician was in doubt, Hero Masa took Tohsaka Tokiomi's words, and the magician nodded to him to prove it The correctness of this guess, but Li Zheng said earnestly: "This is not to lie to you, but I have indeed lived in such an era: the speed of the whole game is frighteningly fast, and the two sides do it every round." There is only one thing: that is to exchange resources crazily. Whoever can get more resources will win, and in such an era, most of the cards in the entire card pool will be overwhelmed—— Even if they can’t earn resources, they will inevitably be discarded even if their effects are good and they are in good shape; many very good cards are even eliminated because one attribute is not good enough, and they lose the right to shine.”

"It's hard to imagine..." Tokiomi shook his head, it was hard for him to imagine what a duel in such an environment would be like.

"Well, although such an environment is not bad at all - at least only in this high-pressure environment can a large number of players who are very accomplished in this game be born; Wait for a more scientific concept to be hatched." Li Zheng concluded, "However, this is all based on the fact that 'Duel Monster' is just a game; and now 'Duel Monster' has a more important status in this world. The end of constantly developing a single deck and strategy will only turn this vibrant environment into a pool of stagnant water: everyone fights with similar decks until the new restricted card list or new Until the card group series is released."

In the previous life, there may still be soil for the gods who insisted on using fun decks, not for victory but for joy—because it was just a game; but what about this life? "Duel Monsters" and countless benefits are even related to life...Under this pressure, Li Zheng pessimistically estimates that the decks outside the mainstream will lose all the power to survive in the process of development.

"In the end, it will become the situation that z-one said?" As a strict magician, Tohsaka Tokiomi is one of the few who still calls z-one "real name" instead of "crab head" People, "But...don't you still have that 'big plan'?"

"It's just a layer of insurance." Armor Li Zheng couldn't make an expression, but the content of his voice transmission and his seemingly flat tone made Tosaka Tokiomi a little relieved.

However, what Shichen Papa didn't know was that Li Zheng wouldn't tell them in front of other people that in fact, he himself had more or less no confidence in that crazy plan.

"Gorgeous Tournament" is a competition that does not simply use victory as the only indicator - although victory is still very important, duelists who use "low trendy value" to win will not be able to obtain enough points to advance; In other words, in this world with stereoscopic images, the better visual effects of "Gorgeous Contest" are easy to attract fans.

"If the 'Gorgeous Contest' is very popular among duelists, then the 'skill points' allocated by the entire human society to duels that are purely for victory will be diverted. The plan' failed, and there is room for remediation." Li Zheng concluded: "So do you understand why I suddenly started advocating the gorgeous contest?"

The magician in the red suit nodded.But there is actually one thing Li Zheng didn’t say: Although he can tell from the difference between the “players” he met in his previous life and the “duelist” he met in this life, the latter’s dueling skills are related to the “laws of the world” It is much more difficult to master dueling skills in this world than in the previous life, but this means that the benefits after mastering duel skills will be greater, and as long as the power of greed is strong enough, these limitations will be broken.

Those who can dedicate their lives to responsibility are rare, but those who can take risks out of greed are like crucian carp in a river.

Chapter 6 The Oldest King?Do you believe that I beat someone older than you?

After exchanging with Tokiomi about the current operating status of the Taiyi Organization, Li Zheng left the ruby ​​magician's office, and after returning to his room, Li Zheng realized that the countdown to signing the contract had already skipped another day. , there is only more than one day left to decide.

[How about choosing Ogao?Although it was stated in the information that she had never participated in a duel or touched a deck, these were actually no big deal. 】In view of the fact that if you sign a contract with Tengyuan Yukino, it is easy to fall into the well-known "Sura field" when you meet Xiaohui, so now Yukino's priority is actually comparable to that of Fujiwara Yusuke. Although Jiaou is also a girl, her character is described in the data as a very serious and hardworking character, and she doesn't seem to have any thoughts about men, so the possibility of her emotional conflict with Xiaohui is very low...]

Li Zheng's analysis seems to be correct, but it's just a wild guess of a single dog with zero love experience - in fact, when Li Zheng told this analysis to Kuang San a week ago, the other party's hatred His expression was like looking at a silly roe deer.

【"If it's as you said, boss——Xiaohui can now be regarded as half a spirit body, and has the possibility of entering and exiting here——then only Fujiwara Yusuke is a safe choice; even Fujiwara Yusuke is not safe. Choose."] Li Zheng remembers what Kuangsan said at the time, and she laughed at Li Zheng with a wicked smile at that time: 【"No matter how magnanimous a girl is usually, she is very selfish when she is in love. boss……"】

Li Zheng still doesn't understand why even Fujiwara Yusuke is not a safe choice, but after returning from Kuangsan, he knows that he should not be careless now.

[Forget it, don’t think about this for now, there are still more than a day and a half, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge, don’t think about it for now, the big deal is waiting for Xiaohui to fly here first...] Li Zheng, who is thinking in a mess, will be in the system The terminal was put back, and then he opened his system backpack, and there was another thing in the backpack that he planned to deal with today.

Li Zheng gently called out the name of a spirit card—this spirit card was one of the three cards included in the big gift package "Do you long for power?" "Gladiator Beast Nero", used to summon Nero, the heroic spirit in the Moon World; and the other one is "World Tree", which has been used to successfully activate the Spirit Hall.The third spirit card is this one. This card has been lying in his backpack for three months. Li Zheng has never used it. Lack of manpower, the second...

Because this card knew at a glance that it would summon that very troublesome existence.

[Link Card: Prehistoric Heritage City Babylon]

Li Zheng looked at this spirit card with a tangled face - Li Zheng could think of it with his hair: most of what it can summon is the "oldest king", the prototype of all the "noble phantasms" in the world. Some people, when addressing others, will always be the king of the second class with a "miscellaneous training", Gilgamesh.

The title of "The Oldest King" has always been one of the capitals of the king's pride, but Li Zheng, who had beaten an older king just three months ago, said that it was precisely because of this that he was so entangled:

Gilgamesh was the king thousands of years ago, and Dazi, who was killed by Li Zheng, was at least 1 years ago; Gilgamesh ruled the oldest city-state of mankind, and Dazi ruled Almost the entire human world and even a large part of the elf world...

Assuming that this guy was released during the decisive battle with Da Zi, the heroic spirit who has always been proud of "the oldest king ([-])" and "the king of heroes" will not be happy when he sees a king who is older and stronger than him Will run away on the spot?

Li Zheng said that he was very concerned, so in the end he would rather choose the seemingly unreliable Nero than touch this piece of "Prehistoric Heritage City Babylon"; but now it is different, Dazi has been given harmony by Li Zheng At the same time, after several months of management, the current "Taiyi" is gradually on the right track... Everything seems to indicate that the risk of summoning at this time is getting smaller and smaller, which makes Li Zheng once again Take out this spirit card.

Although there is not a shortage of people now, but there is a spirit card that can be summoned but has not been used, which always makes Li Zheng feel itchy.

"How about I summon and try before choosing a contractor?" Li Zheng began to have a death-defying thought in his heart, and he couldn't hold it back as soon as he thought about it: After all, Li Zheng was once a human being, and human beings His desire to die has never disappeared just because of life and death—in other words, when he is already overwhelmed by the contractor's choice, Li Zheng still wants to add a time bomb to his side...

"Although it looks messy at first glance, it's really fun to die...and it doesn't have to be really messy." Li Zheng, who was walking towards the spirit summoning system with "Prehistoric Heritage City Babylon", was at this moment Self-hypnotized, he muttered to himself: "Even Gilgamesh has the status of a 'virtuous king' as a caster. In this case, not only is it not a time bomb, but it can even be used as a mentor in management. After all, Taiyi It's too big..."

The more Li Zheng thought about it, the more he felt that this was feasible. When he walked to the altar for summoning spirits from another world, Li Zheng seemed to have decided that this time he would definitely be able to cast a caster Shining--this kind of state had never happened to him in his previous life. It has appeared, because of this state it has a scientific name called: "Quickly call Shaman".

Originally, Li Zheng was insulated from this kind of state - this damn European dog seems to never have such a situation; but today is different, because the matter of the contractor has made Li Zheng's heart extremely entangled, in this situation Under the circumstances, he unexpectedly entered this state that only "chiefs" can enter without a teacher - and people in this state often lose their limbs.

When Li Zheng put the "Prehistoric Heritage City Babylon" on the altar of the spirit summoning system, the cold electronic sound from the system finally brought him back to reality...

[Not good! 】Looking at the black hole and the rainbow bridge that have already begun to form, Li Zheng can't even stop the system at this time - this stupid summoning system is single-threaded, once it starts, he can only choose to summon, not even refuse do it!

At the same time, the system's summoning notification also promptly told Li Zheng that he did not summon the virtuous king he wanted before, because the information clearly stated archer Gilgamesh; Now I have to serve one more ancestor...huh? 】

However, when Li Zheng saw the information sheet given by the system, he realized that there was one place he had missed before...

……

My name is Li Zheng. I am the spirit behind the time travel to the world of Yu-Gi-Oh. "Gilgamesh……

"Hahahahaha, it's really exciting! Hey, Brother Li Zheng, come and watch it! This game is so high!"

Li Zheng (Fu forehead): The little one in "Fantasy Carnival"!
