Chapter 136 Link System
"Link system?"
Yugen asked as he and Keipi walked side by side in the long corridor.
"Yes." Keipi said, "In fact, we have been developing related things a few years ago. At that time, my brother developed a new type of duel disk that can link the quantum intelligence of card data with the memory area of the brain.
All duel information is transformed into images in the brain and visualized in space."
“I think I’ve heard of this.”
You Xuan reacted quickly.
It is the duel disk developed by Kaiba in the movie "Dark Side of Dimensions". It is a product that combines technology and idealism. It can digitize cards, link them with people's memories, and amplify the duelist's self-awareness. It is even possible to print cards from memory data images under certain circumstances.
The famous scene of "drawing cards from the floor" in the movie "The President" was made possible by the power of this system. Kaiba was in a desperate situation when he pulled out the "Obelisk's Giant God Soldier" from the floor, which should have long ceased to exist in this world, shocking the Blue God for a whole year.
“But that development was really just the beginning of something much bigger that’s only now being completed.”
Guiping had already led Youxuan to another laboratory. As soon as he entered the room, someone handed him a duel disk and a headset-like device, which Guiping handed to Youxuan.
“This is the key to a new world.”
Some kind of light blue duel disk that looks very high-tech, with fine carvings on the edge and a circle of transparent displays and indicator lights surrounding it.
Keiping had also put on the duel disk and headset, he smiled mysteriously at him and said, "You'll know when you turn it on."
As he spoke, he had already activated the device.
So You Xuan followed suit and started the system. The indicator lights on the duel disk lit up one by one, and a slight buzzing sound came from the headset. Then he seemed to see a stream of data rolling in front of him, like a blue sea composed of countless 0s and 1s, quickly occupying the entire field of vision until all the surrounding scenes were swallowed up.
When he came to his senses, he looked around and found himself standing on an unfamiliar street.
This is an unknown city.
The skyline is dotted with all kinds of weird high-rise buildings that look like something out of a science fiction movie, like giant towers piercing the sky. But they are not made of concrete and glass, but some kind of structure that takes on strange colors and textures as the light changes, making the entire city look like a giant gem.
You Xuan was stunned for a moment and looked down at his body.
The vision, touch, and all the senses are exactly as they are in reality.
But some instinct told him that this was a fake world.
"Shocked, right?"
Keipi appeared beside him, smiling.
"Because it has not been developed yet and is only a test model, we use real images. Otherwise, you can choose to log in with any virtual image."
"A completely immersive online game?" You Xuan asked.
"Well, it's not quite the same as what you see in fantasy works, but judging by the results, you can probably understand it that way."
Keiping thought about it.
"In fact, the prototype of this technology existed many years ago, even before my brother and I took over the company. Our adoptive father, Gosaburo Kaiba, developed quite mature technology at that time."
You Xuan realized what he was referring to.
That is what was explained in the Noa chapter in the DM animation.
Kaiba Gosaburo's biological son Kaiba Noa died in a car accident, and Gosaburo downloaded Noa's consciousness data into the supercomputer used by Kaiba Corporation for military operations. As a result, that consciousness gradually grew and evolved into an AI with high intelligence, and as it grew over the years, it created a very large virtual world.
In the anime's Noa arc, he unknowingly dragged Yugi, Kaiba and his crew into the virtual world he created, but at the end of the Noa arc, that data space was also destroyed.
However, the technology must have been retained by President Kaiba.
It was on that basis that they developed this "Link System". A similar huge virtual world space, like a huge open world online game. According to the president's idea, duelists from all over the world can log in to this game to fight online.
Yu Xuan naturally thought of the sixth game of Yu-Gi-Oh!, Yu-Gi-Oh! Vrains. Although that game was a parallel world, the world view looked like the distant future.
That game was also the first time in the history of Yu-Gi-Oh that the main stage was set in an online game called "Link Vrains", and almost all duels in it were conducted online in the game.
From the description now, the system that President Kaiba is developing could have something to do with that thing in the future.
You Xuan even tried to call for silence. Only a moment later, the silver-haired wizard floated out of the deck on his duel disk in spirit form, tilting his head.
What? "Oh, nothing, just yelling for fun." You Xuan smiled.
silence:"."
Of course, he wasn't just yelling for fun. This convinced him that, although his current state was that his consciousness was projected into the data world, the power of the elves was still applicable here, and the attributes of the power of destiny should be the same.
But this is also foreseeable. Extraordinary power is metaphysics, and it also applies to the data space. This has actually been proven in DM.
In the original work, AI Noa tried to take over Yugi's body in the virtual space by relying on her authority, but ended up suffering the backlash of the power of the Millennium Bricks.
“That’s great, isn’t it?”
Guiping said proudly.
“It’s just a prototype right now, and only testers can log in. But we will improve the facilities as soon as possible, so that duelists from all over the world will not be restricted by region and can happily duel wherever they are.
Didn't my brother invite you to participate in the 'Duel City GX' competition before? In fact, we are planning to hold this year's competition online in the Link System, and it will also serve as the opening ceremony of the Link System."
He stopped suddenly at this point.
He received a call from a technician from the outside world Haima Company.
"Illegal login? Here?" Keiping was surprised, "But the connection system hasn't even been officially opened yet."
He immediately thought of something.
"Could it be the same hacker from last time?"
"I don't know, sir." The technician said, "but we found that there is an abnormal data space in the link system. We are trying to clear it."
"No, send me the coordinates first." Keiping interrupted, "I want to go and see it myself."
"Yes, sir."
After receiving the coordinates from the headquarters, Keiping snapped his fingers. Then the scene around the two of them began to distort rapidly, and everything was spinning.
In just a flash, their coordinates changed and they moved instantly to another corner of the virtual map.
That is part of Guiping's GM authority, which allows him to teleport freely between any coordinates on the map.
When the two of them landed, they were faced with a gloomy castle. Completely different from the sci-fi futuristic buildings just now, the castle's exterior walls were mottled and its eerie shadow was stretched out very long, like a huge monster quietly lurking in the darkness.
Guiping frowned: "Strange, we have never designed such an area."
"of course."
A voice emerged from the shadows.
A man in black clothes and sunglasses walked out slowly and smiled.
"Because it was designed by our master, right in the shadow of your glamorous virtual world."
"Are you the hackers who invaded our company?" Guiping asked in a deep voice, "Who are you? What do you want?"
The man chuckled and did not answer directly, but instead spoke.
"Since you have discovered us, whether you want to drive us out of the connection system or delete our base in the shadows, it should be a piece of cake for Kaiba Corporation.
But if you do that, you won’t be able to get the answers to the questions you want to know, right?”
"Oh?" Keipi crossed his arms and smiled, "I smell conditions. So what do you want?"
"It's very simple. Just use the rule that President Kaiba Seto most respects and is the only rule in this 'Link System' to decide."
The man showed his duel disk and deck.
"Let's duel. If you win, we will naturally offer you the answers to any questions you need."
