Chapter 199 Visiting the Alien Demons (Part 2)
“Go back?” Archduke Hall asked regretfully.
“Yes. The battle that I said earlier was successfully completed (?), I think it’s time to go back to the farm. You can’t be cheeky and bother you here at the Southern Heaven Knights, right?” Arthur Euphemistically.
“Is that so?” Grand Duke Hall had a look of embarrassment, “I originally wanted to keep you observing for a while to see what kind of person you are.”
“Have you not observed enough?” Arthur said helplessly. So much has happened these days, it seems like an entire century has passed. Hall wants to investigate Arthur’s character, so what should I do?
“I have a general idea of your character. But there is still some kind of [chaos] in your character, and I really want to figure out what it is.” Grand Duke Hall said, “If you don’t figure it out, I dare not give you the entire future of Pantoracken.”
“You don’t have to give me the future of Pantoracken! I said I don’t want to be king!” Arthur said angrily.
“I will continue to observe this.” Hall put on an intriguing expression.
Arthur felt a fire, and Hall kept watching, watching, watching as if he were some kind of laboratory animal. —— Is this annoying? !
“That’s it.” Sensing Arthur’s impatience, the Grand Duke of Hall put forward a condition, “You stay for one more day, just one day. I want you to do one thing with me.”
“What?” Arthur asked. He just wanted to settle the matter quickly, pay back what he owed Hall, and get away with his knights as soon as possible.
“Play chess with me,” Hall said.
“Play chess?!”
Ten minutes later.
“Come in.” Celestial Knight Hall, pushed open the door of the chess room, “This is the first time I have invited someone to my chess room in ten years.”
It was a remodeled room from a small lounge. Except for two chairs, there were ten chessboards neatly arranged in the center of the room.
The pieces are scattered around the board, and it looks like Hall has played an earth-shattering game with someone before. Although Arthur didn’t know much about chess, he could see the intricacies of the game.
“Is this a draw?” Arthur asked.
“Oh, no. We are just [forced passive] with each other, and we have been confronting each other for ten years.” said the Grand Duke of Hall.
(This is the definition of draw?)
Hall walked over and touched a magic engraving on the side. The flag moved automatically, returned to its original position, and immediately set up a starting battle.
“You’ve ruined the game, is there any problem?” Arthur asked.
Hall smiled and pointed to his head, “It’s not damaged, it’s all kept here. Besides, the young man I played against is no longer in this world, I’m afraid this is an eternal endgame. “
Arthur didn’t speak. He was amazed at Hall’s superhuman memory while wondering who the chess player who played against Hall was.
Among the ten chessboards, there are several moves he has seen before. I’ve seen it, but can’t remember where I saw it.
My head hurts again.
“Okay, Grand Duke,” Arthur walked over to a chessboard, “let’s play a game. Which chessboard are you going to play?”
“Which board?” Hall smiled. “Arthur, you misunderstood. These ten boards side by side are a board. This is a game I created, [Legion War Chess].”
He picked up a [King] and said, “Imagine the sixteen chess pieces on each board as a knight order, this is the leader of the knight order. Do you remember yesterday’s 20-man army battle? I want to simulate a battle ten times bigger than this.”
“When my army eats all ten of your kings, that’s when your country perishes. That’s what I created, war on the chessboard.” Hall said.
Isn’t it just chess, it’s just ten times bigger, what’s so special about it. Arthur thought.
After briefly explaining a few rules to Arthur, Hall said, “Look, pieces can be moved from one chessboard (corporation) border to another. In addition to this rule, other rules It’s similar to chess. But the battlefield is ten times bigger, and there are many places that you thought were borders and could no longer be moved. Can you adapt to these rules?”
“Well, I don’t know if I don’t actually play.” Arthur said, “But I can still understand the basic rules.”
He really didn’t know what Hall was planning. Can you find out a person’s character in the next game of chess?
In the afternoon.
Arthur has been checkmate. His last legion was surrounded by countless chess pieces from all directions. He knew in his heart that with the strength of one legion, he could not fight against the encirclement and suppression of six legions.
“…admitted defeat. Grand Duke, you are really strong.” Arthur said.
“Huh? You admit defeat so soon?” Hall was surprised, “You still have chess to play?”
“No, if it goes on like this, losing is inevitable.” Arthur said, his remaining three soldiers, two knights, a bishop and a castle were simply unable to fight against Hall’s overwhelming army. potential.
“Hmph, young man, it’s too early to give up. Well, let’s do it, my pawns are exchanged with yours. Let me teach you how to solve this endgame with your current pawns.”
Arthur was about to get angry. Hall is so arrogant, he wants to use a few remaining pieces from one legion against more than 40 pieces from six legions?
But he held back, he wanted to see how Hall could do it.
“Okay, let’s exchange.”
“If I can use your chess pieces to reverse the disadvantage,” Hall said, “you stay and play with me for the next game.”
Arthur is depressed. Was this a ruse that Hall used to keep him? However, this kind of endgame that is impossible to crack no matter how you look at it, even if it is exchanged, there is no way to crack it. What to be afraid of.
An hour has passed.
Arthur’s last king was eaten by Hall’s last soldier. There is only one king and one soldier of Hall left on the entire chessboard. Such a tragic battle, when it was replaced by a real war, has long been the point where corpses are scattered everywhere and blood is flowing into rivers.
Arthur was speechless. He had lost to Hall twice in a row in a chess game. This is simply a shame.
Hall snorted: “Arthur, you can see from this chess game that you have a huge flaw.
——You are too womanly. You are afraid of losing any pawn, but as a result, I get more and more, and in the end there is not even a **** left. You are not only too kind to your own pawns, you are too kind to your opponent’s pawns. At the 1622nd step just now, your [Knight] can obviously eat my [Bishop], why do you hesitate? “
“If you do that, your queen will come and eat my [knight].” Arthur replied without thinking, defending himself for not being “a woman’s kindness.”
“So what, just let that knight be eaten, and then your castle can be my queen.” Hall asked.
“I just don’t want to see this kind of lose-lose situation…”
“As a result, you have all the pieces taken by me and lost the whole war.” Hall responded with merciless criticism.
Arthur is silent for a while.
“Goo.” With thunder in his stomach, Arthur realized that it was dusk and it was time to eat.
“Humph, well, you go to rest. I look forward to playing chess with you next time.” Hall said, “However, I advise you to think carefully about what to do, and then come play chess with me. Next time I won’t be merciful, you will lose badly.”
“Okay.” Arthur angrily left the chess room.
It’s naive to want to win without sacrificing anything. But Arthur still didn’t want to sacrifice any of his companions.
He is such a fool.
After returning to the room, he said to Bedivere who was still packing his things: “No need to pack, it seems that we have to stay in the Southern Heaven Knights for a few more days.”
“Oh, all right,” said Brady.
“That’s great,” Tristan said.
“What are you happy about?” Arthur said displeasedly.
“Of course I’m happy.” Tristan laughed. “There are high beds and soft pillows here. You don’t have to take turns to stand guard at night, you can eat and drink well, and it doesn’t smell like your farmhouse’s cow dung. I won’t live here for a long time. Opinion!”
“Well, you can stay here when we go back. Anyway, you are the prince of Iceland, so there is no problem with being a VIP here.” Arthur said.
“That won’t do,” Tristan said. “I’ll follow Beddy wherever he goes. If your messy battles put Bedy in danger again, at least I can protect Bedy myself.”
“Oh, okay, you like it.” Arthur said indifferently. He looked out the window thoughtfully.
” Arthur ~IndoMTL.com~ Bedivere asked, “What will Ryder do if we leave the Southern Sky Knights? “
“I don’t know. Drive him away, maybe?” Arthur said, “I can’t keep him here anyway, lest he really be a traitor and cause trouble for the Knights.”
“Ryder wouldn’t do that. There must be some misunderstanding,” Bedivere said.
“You really believe in your friend.” Arthur said, “he knows his face but not his heart. He may have been your friend before. But, after so many years, what kind of person has he become? No one can tell.”
“I know his nature is kind. I know his kind nature will never change,” Bedivere retorted.
“People who are not inherently bad sometimes do bad things.” Arthur said, “Human nature is selfish and cruel. No matter how kind a person is, if he has enough motivation, he can destroy it. A world.”
“Ryder knows right and wrong, he knows some things can be done and some things can’t be done,” Bedivere said.
Arthur looked at Bedivere with a ‘you’re not saved’ look and sighed.
“What did he ever do to deserve your trust in him?” Arthur asked.
The werewolf boy looked at the knight without answering. His friendship with the Rabbit Man cannot be explained in a few words.
“Very well, let’s check it out.” Arthur said.
