642 Does Winning or Losing Matter?

"Princess Cornelia, are you alright, are you not feeling well?" After Wu Ming and Odysseus came out of the Knightmare Institute, they returned to Xiu Nigel's side, just in time to see the emaciated Conelia, if she wasn't a British princess, even if she had just been turned by someone Wu Ming would believe it.

"Your Royal Highness the Regent, I think you should discipline Sister Ling." Xiu Nigel said as if he was a little helpless, and at the same time pointed to Eve, who was chasing Euphelia around, "Although she is still a child, the basic etiquette must be observed, otherwise it will be difficult for us to do it." ”

"Yufi, come back quickly, it's easy for you to fall when you're running around like this." Cornelia said to Yufie, who was still playing with Eve, and stopped Eve running past her, "You have to remember, Yufie, as a princess, you have to be polite at all times, otherwise it will be embarrassing." "Cornelia wasn't just talking about Euphelia, even Eve was taught by her.

"I'm so sorry, Your Highness Hugh Nigel." Unexpectedly, Wu Ming took the initiative to admit his mistake, and it seemed that he had a very good attitude of confession, and at the same time, Wu Ming also grabbed Eve from Conelia's hands, pressed her to the ground and said, "Eve, she is just too naughty, I have long said that it can't be like this." ”

"Well, it's actually not that strict." Seeing Wu Ming's big move, Cornellia was also a little caught off guard, Cornelia felt that although Eve took advantage of herself, she was a girl after all, and there was nothing to take advantage of, and she was also the right to be coquettish by Yufilia.

"No, Princess Conelia, this is no small matter, I think Eve must have itchy skin." Wu Ming said and brought Eve to Conelia, "Princess Conelia, now Eve will be handed over to you to deal with, it doesn't matter what you want to do with her, as long as you don't kill her." ”

"Smack!!" Eve grabbed a cotton cushion on the chair and slapped it on Wu Ming's head vigorously, and she got out of trouble because of this, and at the same time stepped on Wu Ming's back and rubbed her fists and said, "Brother, I see if you have an old problem, it just so happens that my hands are itchy, I don't mind helping you loosen your bones." ”

"Your Highnesses, please pay attention to the occasion." Xiu Nigel is already holding his forehead, and he can't do anything about Wu Ming and Eve, the two guys who show off the lower limit, so he can't drive them away, "If you continue to make trouble, it will be difficult for the maids here to prepare lunch." ”

"Hmph, you're in luck." Now that Xiu Nigel has spoken, it is not an ordinary shame for Eve to continue to step on Wu Ming like this, and it is not impossible for them to make headlines tomorrow if they don't stop, although she doesn't care much about the so-called face problem, but she doesn't want her reputation to be too bad if it's not necessary.

"Really, I've raised you for so many years, Eve, and I don't respect my brother at all." Wu Ming stood up with a look of hatred, "By the way, Xiu Nigel, it's not lunch time anyway, I'm a little bored again, do you have anything here to entertain?" ”

"Maybe you're going to be disappointed, Your Highness the Regent, I don't have much to play with here." "If you don't mind, Your Royal Highness the Regent, I can play with you, I'm used to playing this kind of game." ”

"Well, I don't play this game very often, but I'm bored right now." Wu Ming said and sat down opposite Xiu Nigel, he also wanted to see for himself how many catties and taels the only person in the original book could beat the protagonist in chess, and he was also very confident in his chess skills.

"Sister, who do you think will win this time, is it Brother Xiu Nigel?" Euphelia looked at the two people sitting calmly and asked with some curiosity, she didn't know much about chess, but she heard that this brother of hers never seemed to lose, so she asked.

"I don't know, Princess Eve, is His Royal Highness the Prince Regent very good at this?" Cornelia turned to Eve and asked, as a figure who commands a great power that can confront Britain, Cornelia will not underestimate Wu Ming, so she does not have her own subjective judgment to think about the outcome of this chess game.

"If it were a normal situation, I think my brother should be half a pound and a tael with Sigh Nigel, he is an idiot in other aspects, but he is more professional than anyone else in terms of play." Eve shrugged and said, "And I don't know when my brother is going to cheat, anyway, I don't like Xiu Nigel." ”

"Cheating?" Cornelia really can't think of how to cheat in chess, after all, so many people can't drop the chess pieces when they look at Wu Ming, of course, she doesn't know that the cheating that Eve is talking about is actually Wu Ming's use of calculation speed beyond ordinary people, if Wu Ming insists on playing Xiu Nigel, he can speed up the calculation speed to predict Xiu Nigel's next step, and then push Xiu Nigel to a dead end little by little.

The chess game began quickly, but both Wu Ming and Xiu Nigel only moved their pawns slightly, and the castle, the bishop, and the knight did not move at all, as if both sides were deliberately delaying time, but Cornelia still saw something, both sides were looking for an opportunity to kill with one blow, as long as the slightest carelessness, this game of chess would collapse to the end.

"Hugh Nigel, what do you think is the purpose of the game?" Wu Ming suddenly asked, and at the same time moved his knight to the front line, his move was a piece other than the first pawn used in this game, but this move was very bad, the knight was in front of Xiu Nigel's minions, and Xiu Nigel could kill it immediately.

"Your Royal Highness, your question is interesting." Xiu Nigel said as he moved his minions to eat Wu Ming's knights, so that Wu Ming would have one less powerful pawn, "Maybe different people have different answers, but if it were me, I would like to win." ”

"Does winning or losing matter?" Wu Ming tilted his head and moved his bishop to the sideline, thus exposing his rear, "I don't think winning or not winning is not the most important thing, I care more about whether I have a good time in this game, if I'm happy, what's the matter if I lose?" ”

"How can you be happy if you lose?" Xiu Nigel shook his head, but his movements were not slow, and he immediately let his castle rush to Wu Ming's other knight, this step blocked several chess pieces behind Wu Ming at the same time, and Conelia, who was watching the battle, also had to sigh at Xiu Nigel's clever step.

"You're right, it's hard to be happy when you lose." Wu Ming said that he let one of his castles go to the opposite line of the king of Xiu Nigel, although this step threatened the king of Xiu Nigel, but in fact, this step is easy to dodge, let alone Xiu Nigel, even beginners will not be frightened by this move.

"Your Royal Highness, you made a mistake." Xiu Nigel did not move the king, but let a small soldier walk in front of this castle, and at the same time, because the small soldier moved out of position, Xiu Nigel's queen was in the same line as Wu Ming's king, "You are not suitable to stay in the arena of the game if you attack casually but put yourself in a difficult situation." ”

"Looks like Brother Xiu Nigel has won, Princess Eve." Cornelia said to Eve a little proudly, just now Eve said that he was not optimistic about Xiu Nigel, but now he was not more than ten steps away from Wu Ming by the general, this is a **naked slap in the face, it is estimated that it is because he has just been taken advantage of by Eve, Cornelia wants to see Eve's disappointed appearance.

"Brother, that guy." Eve didn't show a disappointed expression, but looked disdainful, she seemed to know what Wu Ming wanted to do, "Conelia, I think you underestimate your brother Xiu Nigel too much, and at the same time, you overestimate your brother, this is not a regular game of chess at all, and my brother didn't think about winning from the beginning." ”

"Could it be that he just did that to let Brother Xiu Nigel die? No" Conelia quickly denied his judgment, because Xiu Nigel did not have a happy expression after taking the general's step, but had a solemn face, on the other hand, Wu Ming, although his king was threatened by Xiu Nigel's queen, but he did not have any panicked expression.

"My brother is probably addicted to playing with Binghua before, and he doesn't have the word to win in his dictionary now." Eve said with a flash of light in her eyes that ordinary people could not detect, she had just deduced a chess game with supercomputer-level computing speed, as long as Wu Ming was willing, no matter how this game was played, there was no way to tell the winner of this game, and Xiu Nigel could only propose a draw with him.

"Your Royal Highness the Regent, this game is settled, and it will be a waste of time to continue." Xiu Nigel shook his head and said, although Wu Ming has not yet taken the next step, but he has roughly guessed Wu Ming's next move with his years of chess experience, Wu Ming has set up several endless loops in this game of chess, no matter how he chooses, he will only fall into the trap designed by Wu Ming and be forced to stop the general, although in terms of results, Xiu Nigel has always had an advantage, but he also knows very well that he has no way to solve this dilemma.

"This game is really boring, I thought I could be entangled with you for a long time." Wu Ming shrugged and said, I don't know when I developed the habit, maybe when I drew with Muto Games in the DM world, Wu Ming liked this kind of self-led draw, in his opinion, it is more fulfilling than winning, so that the other party has no way to retreat and has to negotiate peace with himself.

"Your Royal Highness the Regent, you are serious, you are the one who actually won this game of chess, and I fell into your trap from the beginning." Xiu Nigel smiled bitterly, he knew that he had been led by Wu Ming by the nose in the chess game just now, if it was under normal circumstances, it would be impossible, after all, Xiu Nigel's own resourcefulness belongs to the world's top level, and his chess attainments are also very high, but he knows very well that the reason for this situation is that he wants to win too much, he is not defeated in chess skills or resourcefulness, but lost to his competitiveness.
