CH.451 Wind Rose Dragon
After getting another copy of Black Rose Dragon, and then performing some DNA Surgery and Transplant on it, I had the perfect, in my opinion, Synchro monster for Cailie.
And it is time for her to summon it.
... And I’ll also summon the three Synchroes I have, so that I can collect my Clear Wing Synchro Dragon.
We were outside on the HomeBase courtyard and a few of my employees that had the time, as well as some of the dhampirs that were interested were some ways away watching us.
“... you first.” Cailie told me.
“That is fine with me. I’ll call out Red Dragon Archfiend. ... I guess I’ll need the materials.”
I quickly checked what I could use for a level 8 Synchro. I only have level 1, 2 and 3 Tuners, so I’ll have to use one of them. And since I’m summoning RDA, I think I’ll be using Dark Resonator. It just feels appropriate. I then picked a level 5 vanilla to be the other material.
“My level 3 Dark Resonator tunes my level 5 Succubus Knight.
The ruler's heartbeat will now file through here! Take witness to its creation-shaking power! Synchro Summon! Red Dragon Archfiend!”

I looked at my new dragon, and I was quite happy with how draconic and not demonic it looks like. I was a bit afraid, because RDA is an Archfiend. And generally, Archfiends look very demonic, to the point where I’m afraid of using them outside of the Factory.
They aren’t evil, per se, but most would see them as evil, so I don’t really want to use them. Demon summoning is dangerous and I don’t want people thinking otherwise just because I can do it safely.
I then watched as Cailie summoned her dragon.
“Rosemary, Jasmine, tune with Angelica.” She quietly said. “Storming winds engulf the entire world. Shining emerald flower, set into bloom. Synchro summon. My flowering dragon. Wind Rose Dragon!”

But, there is something else I can use this human to machine interface for. And that is making better mechas. Ones that directly interface with a person, instead of having to be controlled with an Xbox controller. ... That was a joke. You don’t control a Megazord with an Xbox controller, but with two joysticks instead. ... which admittedly is basically the same.
But yeah. I think I can make a direct brain to machine interface, kind of like those EVA units from Evangelion. They had something like that, right? I’m not just remembering wrong.
But enough about that, I have a reward to pick up.

[Claim Reward]Spoiler[collapse]
I quickly claim my reward, and even faster, I summon out my Clear Wing.
Clear Wing then has a quick fight with RDA. RDA naturally wins, holding Clear Wing against the ground with its claws. But as he is celebrating ‘putting down’ Clear Wing, RDA’s effect of destroying monsters that didn’t attack activates, and it attempts to destroy Black Rose, Lifetrancer and Clear Wing. Clear Wing then negates the effect, and ends up destroying Red Dragon Archfiend, effectively losing the battle, but winning the war.
I then unsummoned the Synchroes, as the show was over. I then quickly checked what the reward would be for 10 Synchroes summoned, and I have to say, I was very much looking forward to it. Largely because Black Rose Dragon really isn’t the most powerful.

But apparently some genius has made an upgraded form of Black Rose Dragon, and it will be my next reward. After I get it, I can just do the same DNA Surgery and Transplant treatment to it as I did to Wind Rose Dragon. Maybe I can acquire myself a Windy Rose Dragon, or whatever it will end up being.

For the rest of the day, I decided to work on something fun in the Factory. And that something was a turbo duel track. Yes, I want to be able to play card games on motorcycles. But no, I’m not dumb enough to do it without the protection the Factory offers.
Here I’ll also be able to materialize D-Wheels without having to worry about the usual Momentum costs. I still can’t just ‘steal’ the bikes that are for sale, but anything I design myself, I can materialize in the Factory, even if I couldn’t afford to add it to the list of D-Wheels I can ‘summon’ in the real world.
For the track itself, I first made a small ... relatively small circuit in an empty room in the Factory. It was meant to be a good track, but it ended up being more of a practice track.
But then I realized I could make something amazing instead, that being something based on the turbo duel between Yuya and Jack from the Arc-V anime. The one after Zarc where they duel across multiple dimensions.
So I made a track that teleports from one HomeBase room to the next, crossing through most of them. And want to know the best part, when you are in a room with a Field spell, that Field spell would effectively be the active Field spell.
So while you are driving in the underwater tunnel going through the Umi room for example, you better believe that all the Fish, Sea Serpent, Thunder, and Aqua monsters on the field will get that power boost. So you can strategize around that.

I’ll just have to add a limit to how long you can go between actions, just so you can’t stall for like three minutes just waiting for you to get to the field that will be best for you. Like maybe a thirty second limit between actions or something. That way, you can still play for time if you see a good field approaching, but you can’t get too much time to the point where you can just wait forever.
After the track was finished, I decided to take it for a spin. I was just using the practice D-Wheel I have, because I’m not sure I’m confident enough to drive the track with speeds of over 200 km/h. But the 100 km/h practice bike, yeah, that I can do.
I also realized that this track just became a great way to show someone all of HomeBase quite quickly. So I designed a D-Wheel that looks like a sports convertible, so that I can use it to take people for a ride. And with a sports convertible like this, you could theoretically have two vs two turbo duels. Two people per card, and between turns, you trade both drives as well as who is playing the card game.
As a concept, I love it. But I do need people who actually want to play Yugioh with me first.
