A few minutes ago, when Tenma Gekko and President Kaiba were sharing information and chatting about cooperation matters, Yuei Vu listened to them while clicking on the player forum to join in the fun.
In fact, checking the forum was basically his habitual action now. It's similar to how some people would subconsciously take out their mobile phones from their pockets when they were free, scrolling through the group posts, and swiping short videos.
Then he noticed such a post.
"Hahahaha, I finally changed the map! Domino City, Yuei Vu-san, here I come!"
As mentioned before, after the official server was opened, due to the consideration of capacity, the login locations of the official server players were distributed in urban areas around the world.
Only players in Closed Beta and Open Beta could enjoy the honor of being born in Domino City.
And the host who posted this post obviously was born in some other place, but he found a way to get into Domino City by himself.
"One stone stirred up thousands of waves", this post immediately attracted the attention of a large number of players.
According to the normal game flow, players needed to actively participate in the duel competition in their own region and strived to enter the professional league which was still in its infancy.
Players would have the opportunity to leave the birth point to change maps after winning more games and accumulating enough fame.
And now the host actually managed to sneak to Domino City at this stage, this information naturally attracted the attention of countless players who fantasized about Yuei Vu's videos and photos all day long.
"Sir, please release the strategy! How can I go to Domino City? I also want to play with Yuei Vu-san!"
"My crystal is already hungry and thirsty!"
"My cannon is hungry too!"
"I want to join the Nightcrawler World, I wonder if I can fast-forward directly to fencing…"
"There must be something wrong with you in front…"
Yuei Vu ignored a group of bragging players and directly followed the host's speech. The guy did not hide it at all, and directly shared all his methods and strategies.
It turned out that this player actually took refuge in Doma in the city where he was born!
According to his words:
"At that time, I saw a guy in black with a six-pointed star printed on his forehead gathering people to preach. I felt that the six-pointed star on the bastard's forehead looked familiar, and when he went up to ask, it actually triggered the option to join the Doma, so I joined in in a daze…"
Of course, a stranger couldn't enter Doma casually. The host said that he had accepted a series of rituals, and it seemed that the mark of Orichalcos was imprinted on his head or something. The purpose seemed to be to forcibly instill faith and brainwash him to prevent rebellion…
…Of course, judging from the fact that the host was chatting and talking about Doma's secrets in the forum, it seemed that the effect of this brainwashing measure on players was also open to question.
However, the host was only a member of the peripheral grassroots at the moment. He was just an errand in Doma's interior, not even qualified to hold "The Seal of Orichalcos".
However, he was lucky. His request to be assigned to the Domino Branch was actually approved by his superiors, so this player was lucky enough to skip the previous mission process and directly changed the map to Domino City.
In the end, in order to show off, and to prove that he was not just bragging, the host even posted all the distribution of Doma's strongholds in this city!
It seemed that Doma should be quite confident in the brainwashing effect of Orichalcos, and they were not afraid to disclose confidential information to grassroots personnel. Anyway, they felt that their believers could not rebel.
If a follower of Orichalcos wanted to reveal any information that endangered the organization to others, the imprint in his head would instantly erase him. And if someone tried to read the information in their minds through supernatural powers, like the Millennium Items, the imprint would also be activated, directly obliterating the believers.
This was similar to the self-destruction tact used to protect disk information, it was almost foolproof, and there was no possibility of believers leaking information.
However...
…Even if it couldn't be read, no one has ever said that believers couldn't post on player forums to brag about it!
At the end of the post, the host said that Doma meant nothing more than a tool to him. Now that he has fulfilled his wish and come to Domino, which he has been dreaming of day and night, Doma was useless to him.
At this moment, the host was thinking about how to defect from Doma, and find a way to find Yuei Vu-san.
Now he was formulating a plan, and he was going to find a suitable opportunity to die. Not only the respawn would help him slip away from Doma's nose, but it could also clear the mark of Orichalcos on his head.
Yuei Vu was very satisfied with this potential leek's self-awareness and self-cultivation as a leek.
My leeks will not only harvest themselves but will even take the initiative to infiltrate the enemy's interior as undercover agents, dare you to believe it!
And inspired by this host, a large number of players in the following posts expressed that they had learned it, and all of them were gearing up to go to their respective cities to find Doma.
Doma's forces spread all over the world, and there were Doma's shadows in any corner of any city in the world. In theory, all players had the opportunity to join.
Of course, not everyone could join. It would be lucky if 100 out of 10000 players find the right path, but 99 of those 100 players may not be accepted by Doma.
After all, with such a big organization, there should still be selection criteria.
But players had the advantage of the huge quantity and the wide range of distribution. As long as enough players actively applied, there would always be a spy or two who could get in.
Now that Yuei Vu had the information in his hands, the problem was naturally much simpler.
In the animation, Doma hid deeply in this world and was extremely powerful. The protagonist group was in a disadvantageous position of passively accepting moves in front of Doma.
But now, what Doma was facing is an organization that surpasses the common sense of the world, subverting every cognition. Even in his 10,000-year lifespan, Dartz has never seen such a force.
This organization was very scattered, and its origin could not be traced back. Even members who were on different continents and have never been in contact with each other had an inexplicable tacit understanding.
Brainwashing, mind reading, even Shadow Games and soul destruction, no conventional trick had any effect on them at all.
Their appearance was exactly the same as that of ordinary people, to the point nobody couldn't tell them apart at all. Anyone in any corner may be a member of them.
They were pervasive and could lurk around any corner. They had the ability to recognize each other at a glance, but you could never tell the difference between them and ordinary people.
Then there was the most critical point, that is, they had a different understanding of the game of "Duel Monsters", and they could always play some unexpected tricks, which could make even the best veterans feel hard to guard against.
They were players.
When the forum was closed, a bold idea had already formed in Yuei Vu's mind.
In the animation, the whole world was helpless against Doma, but now Yuei Vu may have a chance to take the initiative.
A war between an organization called "The Players" and Doma was about to start.
