Chapter 1195: Undying Darkness
"Nightshroud."
When Yuei Vu heard this pronunciation, he had to admit that he was surprised.
"Nightshroud?" he asked, "Are you sure it's this name?"
But Divine, who had already fulfilled the punishment for defeat, looked ashen, his face full of pain and fear, and his body trembled like a sieve.
"No, I told you that name." He said painfully, "I said this name is damned, but I have no choice!
But it won't care. I'm done, I'm done…"
"Yes, you're done." Yuei Vu didn't feel any sympathy, "But before you're done, you have to continue to answer my questions."
Divine looked at him angrily.
That resentful little look was like a silent accusation–
–Are you a devil?"The Nightshroud you're talking about, isn't it the one I know?" Yuei Vu frowned.
Nightshroud, the final BOSS in "Yu-Gi-Oh! GX", was a supervillain that attempted to drag all of humanity into "the Yu-Gi-Oh version of Infinite Tsukuyomi".
Judging from the setting alone, this BOSS should be the top in GX, and it was also among the best in the entire Yu-Gi-Oh series.
It felt a bit like the BOSS in the finale of Ultraman, where the sun was blocked and the whole world fell into an endless eternal night. The existence of all people on Earth was erased, and all humans were dragged into an infinite cycle of dark illusions.
Only Yuki Judai and his loyal Ultraman were left on the empty Earth, fighting Nightshroud alone.
At the end of the decisive battle, Judai managed to awaken the light in the hearts of people trapped in the darkness, defeated the Nightshroud with the light in the hearts of humans, got rid of the illusion, the sun saw the sun again, and the eternal darkness covering the world was dispelled. At the same time, Ultraman also evolved into the final form "Elemental HERO Divine Ultraman", and killed Nightshroud with absolute power.
If the card-playing plot was replaced with a leather suit battle, it would definitely be the script of the Ultraman trilogy.
Now the question was here.
This thing was clearly a GX BOSS.
Why don't you stay in the GX era, Nightshroud, and fight your mortal enemy Ultraman? Why are you running here?
Unfortunately, Divine couldn't answer this part of the question.
He only explained that one day a man in a black leather jacket suddenly appeared in his office like a ghost, arrogantly saying that he wanted to play cards with him.
It could be imagined that Divine, who was extremely confident, accepted the challenge at that time, and was beaten by the man so hard that his mother couldn't recognize him.
After experiencing the power of the Shadow Game personally, Divine decisively became a fan and joined the cult. He agreed to cooperate with the forces behind the man. As a deal, the man gave him and some of his subordinates in the Arcadia Movement the power of the Shadow Game, and the price was that they had to work for the man as pawns.
"So far, the missions we have received are just to help them eliminate some specific targets," Divine said.
"For example, Ryo Sakata, a former employee of Kaiba Group?" Yuei Vu asked.
"Yes." Divine nodded, "And some other people are guys we have never heard of. We don't know why those people have to die, but we don't really care.
Every time that man shows up, he brings a name. We don't ask who it is, we are only responsible for helping them to clean it up."
"He asked you to kill a lot of people?"
"Not a lot, about four or five?" Divine said.
"Give me a list." Yuei Vu said, "I want to know who you have eliminated."
Divine opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, he didn't say it.
After all, he was now like a broken doll, and he had no power to refuse.
He didn't waste much time to give the names of the targets they executed. Because the constraints of the Shadow Game were still valid, there was no need to worry that this cunning guy would lie.
After writing down a few names, Yuei Vu nodded: "Okay, I don't have anything else to ask."
Divine, who seemed to have been pardoned, did not feel the joy of relief. Instead, he collapsed on the ground like a dead fish, his cracked lips unable to move.
"It's over, it won't let me go…"
"Of course it won't."
Yuei Vu smiled and patted Divine's shoulder.
Divine looked up blankly, looking at Yuei Vu with no spirit in his eyes.
"Although there is nothing to ask, I still have something I need you to do." Yuei Vu smiled, "This is something that only you can do. So while you are still alive, do it for me first."
Divine: "?"
A few minutes later, the farce of the Arcadia Movement tonight ended.
The players suffered a lot of damage. Many people handed over a precious chance of death tonight, but many people also gained a lot (referring to the duel disk and deck).
The matter was over. While the screwballs were still entangled with the Psychic warriors of the Arcadia Movement, Yusei took advantage of the chaos to leave the building.
After walking away, Yusei finally couldn't help asking: "Senior Yuei Vu, do you know the Nightshroud he just mentioned?"
"Well, I guess so." Yuei Vu thought about it.
He knew this guy quite well through the animation, and he did deal with the vanguard minions under Nightshroud when he just became an NPC.
But at that time, Nightshroud was still in a sleeping state and hadn't woken up yet, and the strength of the minions was not strong. And at that time, it just had a sign of waking up, but unfortunately, it ran into Atem and was directly hammered back to sleep by the Duel King.
Yuei Vu speculated that Nightshroud should not be that strong now.
"Nightshroud is good at manipulating people's hearts and influencing their spirits. It can reach the darkest corners of anyone's heart and use the deepest darkness in your heart to deal with yourself.
In the end, you will be assimilated into their part and become a resident of the eternal dark world."
After a pause, Yuei Vu frowned.
"But if it is the Nightshroud I know, it should never lack thugs. It has countless clones, that is, the man in black leather clothes that Divine just described. Their names are collectively called ‘Mr. T', which means ‘True Man'.
So I can't think of any reason why Nightshroud would need a group of Psychic Duelists to act as its thugs.
Unless…"
Yuei Vu lifted his chin.
"Unless what?" Yusei asked.
"Unless its condition is still not at its best." Yuei Vu said, "Maybe it has not fully awakened yet, and its ability to play is limited.
It can't summon Mr. T to run errands endlessly, so it recruited a group of free thugs for itself."
But Yuei Vu really didn't expect that Nightshroud, who was obviously the final BOSS of GX, would also get involved of this era.
He couldn't help but think of the final BOSS battle of GX, when Judai's "Divine Neos" crushed Nightshroud with one blow, and the latter said before the crushing.
"Yuki Judai, even if you defeat me, I will still become a real shadow." Nightshroud shouted before his death, "As long as there is still darkness in the human heart, one day, I will continue to be resurrected in this world!"
So, maybe Nightshroud fulfilled its promise?
Because the darkness in people's hearts has not disappeared, it has gathered its strength and resurrected again in the era of 5DS?
But in any case, one thing was certain.
That was, the era that Yuei Vu was in now was far more complicated than he knew.
