Infantry, spearmen, archers, artillerymen, cavalry, lieutenants and commanders, except for a slight difference in their names, have almost the same rules as chess.

Thinking that the origin of the war chess game was related to the knight king Messeliban, Ruan Chi couldn't help but feel a trace of doubt in his heart.

After the old man on the rostrum explained the rules of playing, he began the procedure of drawing character cards, and the teachers and students of each academy waited in a long line below.

According to the rules of the war chess game, there are 3 teachers who lead the team, and the role in the game is 1 commander and 2 lieutenants, and the teachers can only stay in their base camp to guard the banner of their own college and direct the students to attack, and when they encounter enemy attacks, they can only defend, not attack the enemy students, and the violators will be sentenced to leave the field.

A total of 20 students participated in the competition, of which 10 played infantry, 5 played spearmen, and the remaining 6 students played 2 senior archers, artillerymen, and cavalry respectively.

There is also a rule when students take offenses, that is, low-level troops cannot attack high-level troops, for example, when infantry encounters spearmen, they can only defend or flee, and cannot take the initiative to attack, and violators will also be sentenced to leave the field.

As the venue of this group competition, the adventurer's camp is a very huge field battlefield, its terrain is complex and changeable, now 56 colleges, more than 1,000 teachers and students are fighting in it, all kinds of ambush battles, encounter battles, alliance battles, counter-wars and other intrigues will definitely be staged continuously, the wonderful process of this battle can be imagined.

In fact, according to the experience of previous team competitions, such a melee will basically last a whole day. It may even last until the second or third day.

There was once a record. The most awesome team competition a hundred years ago. It lasted for five days and five nights, and the battle was fierce at that time, comparable to a real war.

Therefore, every time before the start of the team competition, the Shinra Cup will prepare some dry food and water in the adventurer's camp to replenish the participants' bodies, and at the same time, it also prevents the lack of food after the tug-of-war, and the funny incident of some players fainting in the arena with hunger.

In fact, don't miss these dry foods and drinking water. Because once there is a real tug-of-war, these things can be the key to victory in minutes.

It is also a classic case of a team competition, where the last two colleges were left in the camp, because one of the colleges successfully attacked the place where the other party stored dry food and water, and the teachers and students of the other college were hungry for two days due to lack of food and water, and finally gave up the competition.

It has to be said that the team competition is ten students' comprehensive elements, and to win the final victory, in addition to strength, intelligence. Perseverance, courage. Strategy is as important as luck.

In addition, the role of the teacher is also very important, although the teacher cannot attack any of the units played by the students, but as the commander, how the students fight and how to deploy tactics is very important.

In addition, the commander and deputy general played by the teacher also have to guard the base camp with the flag representing the college, and the strength of the teacher also directly affects the factors of whether the whole team can continue to play.

The reason why Saris chose Ruan Chi to play is also because of Ruan Chi's strength, as long as they can hold the banner, then even if the strength of their students is poor, they can always fight until the last moment, and only in this way can they have a glimmer of hope in the Hilled Battle Academy.

Because there were too many people, it took an hour to draw out the character card, and Ruan Chi quickly drew his own character card, coincidentally, his role was actually the commander and the commander-in-chief of the audience.

As for Rachel and Thackeray, they served as lieutenants.

"Damn, how come the burden of the commander-in-chief has fallen on Teacher Ruan Chi, if I do it, it will definitely be much better." Holding the role card of the lieutenant, Thackeray was a little sullen.

"No kidding, if you are replaced as the commander, I will be worried." Selene teased as she stepped aside.

Salith saw that Ruan Chi had drawn the commander, but frowned, Ruan Chi's personality is basically a very bad kind, if she can, she prefers the steady Rachel to be able to serve as the commander, but since the overall situation is decided, Salisi can only accept her fate: "Teacher Ruan Chi, please leave it to you when the time comes." ”

Ruan Chi pinched the character card drawn in his hand, and saw that its material was not gold or jade, only the size of a playing card, with a heroic general painted on it, and the word "commander" written in the upper right corner.

"What exactly is the commander going to do?"

As soon as Ruan Chi said this, he found that he had asked a lot of extra questions, and everyone, including Rachel, cast speechless glances at him.

"Didn't you listen to the rules when people were talking about the rules just now?" The corners of Sally's mouth twitched.

"I guess he didn't listen at all." Rachel directly lifted her forehead.

"Blame me?" Ruan Chi spread his hands, his expression innocent. No way, this is his bad problem since he was a child, he can't listen to the slightest tirade, as long as he listens, it is easy to be distracted.

When the old man said the rules just now, Ruan Chi heard half of it, and his mind was full of thinking about the Knight King Meseliban, so he basically didn't listen to the rules in the back.

Rachel took the trouble to repeat the rules, and finally concluded: "In short, as the commander-in-chief, you will be responsible for mobilizing the actions of all the troops below at that time, whether offensive or defensive, the troops at all levels played by the students can only act according to what you say as the commander." ”

Ruan Chi didn't know if he understood, he just nodded blankly, and this appearance fell into the eyes of others, which couldn't help but make people sweat.

Is this guy really okay?

Because she was worried that Ruan Chi would mess up, Shalith deliberately pulled Rachel aside and instructed her, the lieutenant, to watch Ruan Chi from the side and not let him command indiscriminately.

Rachel naturally agreed with a wry smile when she heard this.

After the character cards are drawn, the next step is for each house to enter the adventurer's camp in batches, and this order is determined by the scores obtained by each house in the first four days of the competition.

Colleges with high scores and high rankings go first. Colleges with low scores and lower rankings will have to postpone their entry.

This order is very important. Because of the early entry into the academy of the adventurer's camp. You can buy more time to survey the terrain and even prepare an ambush in advance.

On the contrary, if you enter the academy of the adventurer's camp later, there is a high chance that you will be attacked when you first enter, and if you don't do it well, you will be out of the game at the beginning.

The Hilled Combat Academy is currently ranked 27th, which is in the middle of the 56 participating academies, not too high nor too low. However, the overall situation is still very bad, and according to past experience, the possibility of being attacked as soon as you enter the field is still very high.

In response to this situation, before the game began, Sharisy deliberately explained: "After you go in, try to walk on both sides of the camp and use trees as cover. The rest of the people quickly went to the base camp to hold the banner. ”

According to the rules of the game, as long as the banner is not extinguished. Then even if you lose some people, you can still continue to play, on the contrary, once the flag of your base camp is found by the place, then the game will end early.

Sarais's strategy is also decent, Rachel and Thackeray listened to it and agreed very much, only Ruan Chi was a little unhappy and said: "This is too cowardly, who dares to sneak attack, isn't it good that we fight back?" ”

"Don't be stupid, the teacher can't attack, how can you win by relying on the student?" Shalith didn't have a good air.

"Don't we have Betty? It would be enough for her to go on alone. Ruan Chi said confidently.

Betty had a bit of luck when she drew a character card and drew a cavalry.

In other words, she can attack any class, Ruan Chi knows Betty's strength very well, and it will really be a matter of minutes to fight back when the time comes.

Although she shined in the ring competition and initially mastered Beamon's power, Betty was still not confident in her own strength, and she was so anxious that she waved her hand again and again: "I...... I can't! ”

Others naturally think the same way, just kidding, no matter how good Betty is, can she really beat ten at a time? Besides, other academies will be alliances, but there are dozens of people, hundreds of people rushing up, no matter how powerful they are, it will be in vain.

Although Tiyì was vetoed, what Ruan Chi said still caught Rachel's attention, and she pondered for a while and said: "Sister Betty has drawn the cavalry card, no matter what, it is a trump card for us, as long as we hold on to the later stages of the game, then there is hope of victory." ”

Sharisy nodded, agreeing with Rachel's statement, and said, "In short, after the game starts, we have to try to preserve our strength and wait for the opportunity. ”

After waiting for almost an hour, it was finally the turn of the Hilled Combat Academy to enter the field, and under the solemn gaze of Saris, the three teachers Ruan Chi, Rachel, and Thackeray led a group of students in the direction of the arched door.

After entering the adventurer's camp, there is a large road nearly ten zhang wide in front of you, which has a wide view, with yellow trees growing on both sides and a thick layer of leaves on the ground.

Soon after entering, Rachel first opened the map of the adventurer's camp given by the competition, and after determining the location of her academy base camp, she immediately led everyone to sneak along both sides of the trees.

Rachel is worthy of being an elf who grew up in the forest, and in this terrain surrounded by plants, her skills are used to the extreme, basically as long as there is any wind and grass, she can find it in advance and lead everyone around.

Half an hour later.

Everyone arrived at the base camp without danger, and the time was much shorter than expected.

The geographical location of the base camp is quite hidden, the area is not large, in fact, it is a hundred square meters of land under a mountain col, with a few tents for rest in the middle, and a large flag representing their Hilled Combat Academy is planted behind it.

It is also surrounded by yellow trees and plants, which are difficult for other colleges to find without a map.

Arriving safely at the base camp, everyone was excited.

Thackeray couldn't help but admire: "Fortunately, we have Teacher Rachel here, otherwise in this complex forest terrain, let alone dodging sneak attacks, it would be difficult to even find the location of the base camp along the way." ”

Not to mention, in the previous team competitions, from the beginning to the end of the competition, there are many participating colleges that have not found a base camp, and if there is no Rachel, it will really take a lot of effort for everyone to find here, so it may be as easy as now?

Hearing Thackeray's appreciation, Rachel did not show any smugness, and even said with a serious expression: "Finding the base camp is just the beginning, and next, how we hold the banner is the key." ”

"I understand, please rest assured, Mr. Rachel, I don't have any other skills, that is, I have thick skin and thick meat, and I can resist, no matter who he comes, I will definitely defend it."

Rachel smiled slightly, and was about to arrange for the students to arrange the defensive fortifications, but at this time, several voice messages suddenly came from the top of everyone's heads.

"Meteor Demon Martial Academy is out!"

"Dorok Battle Academy is out!"

"Amyris School of Magic is out!"

These pieces of voice information came from a butterfly-shaped flying object suspended in mid-air above everyone's heads, this thing is the invention of the dwarven craftsman, a real-time shooting instrument powered by the energy of the magic core, in addition to being responsible for following the combat situation of each participating college, it is also responsible for reporting real-time information to each participating college in real time.

After hearing these news, everyone showed shocked expressions.

"It's not been enough for two hours before the game starts, and there are actually three academies out at the same time?"

It was also the first time for Rachel to participate in this kind of competition, and when she heard the news, her reaction was similar to that of everyone else.

Thackeray participated in the team competition for the second time, and he frowned and said quickly: "It is estimated that the academy with the lowest score ranking was attacked by other colleges when they entered the field. ”

"Teacher, even if you are attacked, you can't be out all at once, right?" Among the students, Jia Na couldn't help but say.

"It's hard to say, once the sneak attack is successful, the other party only needs to knock the students of these three academies to the ground and make them lose their combat effectiveness, then the remaining three teachers can only be single commanders, and at that time, there is no point in continuing the game." Thackeray shook his head.

When Jia Na and the other students heard this, their faces suddenly turned bloodless.

How many hands does it take to knock people to the ground and lose their combat effectiveness?

Although they knew early on that they would be injured in a confrontation like this, the thought of that scene made these students who had not yet fought much in actual combat intimidated.

Seeing this, Rachel couldn't help but shake her head gently, these students, in the past, their lives in Dream Town were carefree, and the bloody battle was too far away from them, and it was really very difficult to expect them to bravely face the enemy in the battle behind. (To be continued......)
