Chapter 1199: Mocking Fate
Since early in the morning, Neo Domino has been caught in continuous earthquakes. Purple and black lines were burning in the sky and on the ground, various Nazca paintings were rampant everywhere, and the flames burned the streets into holes. The burning lines were like cutting blades, splitting the building in two.
Such a huge movement was naturally noticed by Yusei and Yuei Vu.
And in fact, before the exaggerated vision appeared in the sky, the mark on Yusei's arm had begun to flicker. Along with the strong tingling sensation, Yusei could also feel that the mark was warning him of something.
So following the direction guided by the mark, they rushed to the scene as soon as possible and witnessed the fall of Rudger Godwin with their own eyes.
Yusei naturally had never seen this guy, but he had a senior who had read the script to guide him.
"That's Rudger Godwin, the elder brother of Rex Godwin, the head of the Public Security Bureau." Yuei Vu said, "This guy died on the day of the Zero Reverse many years ago, but he was recognized by the King of the Underworld and gained the power of the Dark Signer."
"Zero Reverse?" Yusei's eyes moved.
The Zero Reverse incident had actually always been the deepest pain in Yusei's heart. Because the person who developed the first-generation perpetual motion machine and seemed to be responsible for most of the accident was his father, Dr. Fudo, whom he had never met.
Since he was a child, Yusei felt that the tragedy of his good friends in the Satellite area, those friends who also lost their parents and relatives in the accident, was the fault of his father. If it weren't for the perpetual motion machine, if it weren't for the Zero Reverse, his friends might not have been born in the slums, and might not have had those tragic memories of their childhood.
And now it seemed that Rudger's transformation into a Dark Signer was also his father's fault.Seeing what Yusei was thinking, Yuei Vu said: "Don't think too much. You think the ‘Zero Reverse' is a mechanical failure, so your father should be responsible for everything, right?"
Yusei was stunned for a moment, and then admitted: "Yes."
"The facts may not be true." Yuei Vu shook his head, "Sometimes the content recorded in history books may not be true."
Yusei's pupils shrank: "Senior Yuei Vu… Could it be that… you mean…"
"Well, Zero Reverse is not a mechanical failure. There is nothing wrong with the first-generation perpetual motion machine developed by Dr. Fudo. It was a completely man-made accident.
Someone manually overloaded Momentum and deliberately caused the tragedy of Zero Reverse, so there is today's Neo Domino."
Yusei was shocked: "What?"
He couldn't help but be surprised. This had always been the deepest darkness in his heart and the most painful thing for him. He felt that the city had become what it was today, all of which was the fault of his family, and he should continue to bear the responsibility.
But now someone told him that he was wrong.
Not only that, but he and his father had been carrying the faults of others, and even being remembered as a shame forever.
"That person is Rudger Godwin." Yuei Vu said, "By the way, he was originally one of the Signers like you."
Yusei was even more surprised: "What?"
"The mark of the dragon head, the position of the leader of Signers, should have belonged to this person." Yuei Vu continued, "He was born with the ‘Dragon Head' mark, and was destined to lead the Signers to defeat the Dark Signers team.
But he, who should have had such a fate, was also touched by the power of the King of the Underworld. He was forcibly marked with the mark of the Dark Signer, and the two forces nurtured in his body conflicted with each other, torturing his mind and body at the same time, making him miserable."
Yusei listened silently, and a storm rose in his heart.
Was this person supposed to be our companion?
"In the end, Rudger, overwhelmed by the burden, had a mental breakdown." Yuei Vu said, "He lost to the power of the King of the Underworld, so he cut off his arm with the Dragon Head mark."
"Ah." Yusei was surprised, "He cut off his own arm?"
"Yes, then he gave that arm to his younger brother Rex. If nothing unexpected happens, that arm should still be in the Public Security Bureau." Yuei Vu said, "Then his will was lost to the King of the Underworld, and he had to overload Momentum, causing the "Zero Reverse" accident.
He knew that he would eventually become a Dark Signer after his fall, leading the Dark Signers to make the King of the Underworld come back to this world. He was powerless to fight this fate, so he gave the arm with the Dragon Head mark to his younger brother, asking him to hurry up and gather the Signers, and let the Signers Team defeat him."
Originally, when Yusei heard that the tragedy of "Zero Reverse" was all planned by this person, his disgust for Rudger had reached its peak. But now that he heard about what he did, the anger and resentment were diluted by half.
He realized that this person was just a prisoner of fate. But at least he was trying to fight in his own way and trying to do the right thing.
At this moment, they saw the falling Rudger disintegrate into a cloud of dust in front of Ushio and disappear into thin air.
Yusei frowned: "In that case, who defeated him? Was it another Signer?"
"This involves my blind spot in knowledge." Yuei Vu shook his head.
Yes, he knew the identities of all Signers, and they didn't look like the duelist who had just fought with Rudger in the sky, defeated the Earthbound God Uru, and shot him down.
So who killed the leader of the Dark Signers before the Signers?
Could it be Nightshroud?
No, it didn't look like it. The energy fluctuations released by the dragon that appeared in the sky just now were sacred and holy, which didn't match the style of Nightshroud.
So who else could it be?
Just as he was thinking, the second wave of shock came. More burning Nazca paintings appeared in Neo Domino, dividing the city piece by piece.
Yusei's mark also reacted again.
This time the reaction was more intense! It was a kind of fiery touch, imprinting a certain direction in his mind like a GPS, pointing him to a specific place.
After discussing with Yuei Vu, Yusei immediately stepped on the D-Wheel, crossed the city divided by flames, and drove straight to the coordinates at full speed.
In a short while, he arrived at the place.
It was a deserted area, an abandoned steel mill, close to the coastline.
On the vast empty ground, there were a painting outlined by burning purple lines.
The painting of a giant.
The man in the black robe had been waiting here for a long time. When he heard the roar of the D-Wheel engine, he stood up and took off the hood on his head, revealing his face as pale as a dead person, and painted with the pattern of returning home.
The moment he saw that person, Yusei felt his breathing almost stop.
"Are you… Kiryu?"
