Chapter 1023: Out Of Control System |
Recently, the anomalies in the Duel Link world have become more frequent. From time to time, some things or scenes that should not appear according to the program settings would appear in various parts of the metaverse.
Many duelists took pictures and screenshots of those strange pictures and posted them on the forum, which also caused heated discussions.
Of course, it was just a discussion at this stage, and no one has realized the danger yet.
After all, in the eyes of most people, no matter how realistic Duel Link was, it was just a virtual world after all. Most duelists still thought that this was just a simple online battle platform, which was no different from other ordinary online games.
Of course, more people did not understand that the so-called "consciousness link" in the principle of the Duel Link system was different from ordinary Internet games.
In Aigami's explanation, the whole world could be regarded as based on the common consciousness of organisms. The "Quantum Cube" as the core of the "Duel Link" system was such a product-it could connect collective consciousness and separate individuals from the collective.
It was through the manipulation of thinking consciousness that the Quantum Cube could affect the world itself from the time and space level.
Therefore, no one could predict what abnormalities would occur in the Duel Link system developed on this basis now that the Quantum Cube was gradually losing stability.
The Kaiba Corp has discussed more than once whether to suspend the operation of the Duel Link system, but it has not been shut down so far due to insufficient evidence.
This was the first time this program was running.
After so many years of development, the current Duel Link was a very large system, and its scale was almost unimaginable. It was very time-consuming to scan such a large-scale system.
At this time, President Kaiba and his brother Mokuba were waiting in front of the operating table for the scan results.
While waiting, Mokuba is also watching the live broadcast of the Duel Academy's school competition, and from time to time he is startled to attract his brother's attention.
"Wow, Brother Yuei Vu's Dark Magic deck is so strong! Brother, you have to be careful, next time you might be tricked by the combo of ‘Dark Magical Circle' and ‘Magician of Chaos'!"
"Hey, this Professor Cobra is also so powerful! Vennominaga the Deity of Poisonous Snakes is not affected by the effect and cannot be the target of the effect, and the attack power is still 7,000! Isn't this invincible?"
Kaiba glanced at the screen and said disdainfully: "Humph, so-so. But that guy is not a duelist who will be defeated at this level."
Mokuba asked casually: "Then what level do you think Brother Yuei Vu will be defeated at?"
President Kaiba was stunned and then snorted coldly.
"I won't allow him to lose to anyone other than me!"
"Yeah, that's true…"
After a while, Mokuba began to exclaim again.
"Wow, the duel between the Neo-Spacian and the Crystal Beast, this one is quite interesting."
Kaiba sneered: "Crystal Beast? It's just a series with more ornamental value than practical value. He has no chance of winning."
In fact, it's not that President Kaiba had any prejudice against Crystal Beast itself. The main reason was that Crystal Beast was a card series dug out of the stone slab by the Industrial Illusions and made into a real card, while the Ultraman series used by Judai was a card series designed by the Kaiba Corp and specially prepared for rocket launch into space.
If Judai loses, doesn't it mean that my Kaiba Corp is not as good as the Industrial Illusions?
That's absolutely not possible!
Kaiba narrowed his eyes and stared at the jellyfish head in the picture.
Boy, if you dare to lose here, I won't forgive you!
…I won't forgive your master either!
Fortunately, Judai won this game smoothly in the end, and President Kaiba was very satisfied.
"As expected of being a student of Brother Yuei Vu, Judai is so strong now!" Mokuba smiled.
"Hmph, so-so."
As the president spoke, he recalled the impressive scene when he was beaten by the future jellyfish head in the first KC Cup.
Looking at the little jellyfish head in the picture, the president suddenly felt the urge to play cards, and it was hard to suppress it.
After the battle of The Light of Destruction, he thought that the jellyfish head seemed to have grown up and it was almost time to start.
It's not easy for President Kaiba. He had such a big addiction to playing cards, but there are only two opponents in the world that he could look up to. A strong opponent was too rare for him.
Just thinking about it, the alarm suddenly sounded in the console.
"Ah, I found it!" Mokuba quickly came to the screen, "An abnormal factor was found in the Duel Link! Someone invaded the Duel Link through a method outside our system!"
Kaiba narrowed his eyes, stood up, swept his windbreaker, and strode towards the open duel arena on the side.
He activated the duel disk, and the blue light like LED spread along his limbs and torso.
"Duel Link System, start!"
The scene in front of Kaiba changed rapidly, and the deep blue world like the ocean quickly occupied the entire world and swallowed his body.
……
Yusei Fudo rode his mount – a duel motorcycle called "D-Wheel" in the future – slowly driving between the urban streets of the virtual world.
He came from the future and returned to this era through the barrier of time and space. When he came to his senses, he was already in this virtual space.
"Is this… Duel Link?"
Yusei looked around, looking at this highly realistic and amazingly open virtual world, and felt a little incredible for a while.
As a future person, he had only heard of the existence of the "Duel Link" system, but it was the first time he personally logged into this legendary system.
After all, in the era when he was exposed to duels, the "Duel Link" system had disappeared from history.
"Anyone can duel without restrictions in this world, and people from any country and any region can become friends here…"
Yusei thought of something and suddenly felt a little yearning.
Why must such an excellent system disappear in the end?
An unexpected earthquake interrupted his thoughts. The ground in the virtual world suddenly began to shake, and the road in front of him broke open, leaving a deep gully.
He hurriedly turned the front of the car and braked suddenly. The D-Wheel stopped with a sharp friction sound less than half a meter in front of the gully.
The street lamp collapsed, and the gravel fell down, all shattered into 0 and 1 numbers on the ground, turning into data streams and dissipating in the virtual space.
"Here it comes again." Yusei thought.
This was the third time since he came to this space.
Maybe the Duel Link technology of this era is not mature yet?
Just thinking about this, he suddenly saw a figure passing by in the air. A white figure swooped down, and the windbreaker was pulled straight by the wind like a cloak, and landed steadily in front of Yusei!
That was the owner of the Duel Link system, Kaiba Seto!
"Finally found you." Kaiba Seto stood up and said coldly, "I don't know who you are or how you hacked into my system.
But that will end here!"
Yusei: "……"
