After a day of dizzying cultural classes, it wasn't until half past nine in the evening that Arwen returned to his dormitory.

As usual, after taking a shower and drying his hair with the help of his roommate Xiaobao, Arwen lay down on the bed, put on a virtual reality headset, and entered the virtual reality world.

For ordinary players, the virtual reality world can be called the perfect ideal place to escape from the noise of reality, get away from all troubles, and be independent from the world, but for professional e-sports player Arwen, it is just a change of venue and continue training, which has nothing to do with hobbies or enjoyment.

However, it is not without the slightest opportunity to take a break from the busy, the official start of training is 10 o'clock in the evening, and he still has ten minutes of precious free time.

As soon as he got up from the bed in the virtual bedroom, Arwen quickly summoned the holographic panel, then clicked on the icon and walked into the Gluttonous Pavilion.

After all, there are only ten minutes to play, and it's too late to play other things, so this little free time can satisfy the appetite a little.

Straight up to the second floor of the Gluttonous Pavilion, Ah Wen ordered a large pot of thirteen-spiced crayfish.

Yes, a big basin, is a big basin like a washbasin used by ordinary people, a big red, exuding an attractive aroma of crayfish is full, almost overflowing, it looks like twenty or thirty pounds, to say the least.

Time is limited, so many crayfish naturally don't have time to peel them one by one, Ah Wen clicked on the holographic screen next to him, and in an instant, this full pot of lobsters collapsed into a large piece, the hard carapace on the crayfish's body, the large pieces of spices scattered in the soup, and ingredients such as green onions and coriander...... and other miscellaneous items, all in an instant, disappeared without a trace.

In the whole basin, only a small half basin of reddish-brown thirteen-spiced lobster juice remained, and soaked in this tempting juice, piled up into a small pyramid, the size of an ordinary person's thumb, red and white, with a small piece of shrimp yellow, curled up shrimp meat on the head.

Ah Wen used chopsticks with one hand to push all the shrimp exposed outside the soup into the soup to soak in the flavor, and with the other hand, he clicked on the holographic screen, opened the live broadcast of Good Dreams, and clicked on a live broadcast room in his favorites.

In the live broadcast room, there is a female anchor with a good face, and she sings loudly and dances very white.

While looking at the swaying and trembling female anchor, Ah Wen picked up the shrimp with juice with chopsticks, stuffed them into his mouth, and began to experience the unique chewiness of the shrimp, the Q bomb of the shrimp meat, the richness of the shrimp yellow, and the taste of the fragrant and delicious sauce.

Time passed quickly, and it was getting closer and closer to ten o'clock, and Ah Wen's eating speed also accelerated, and he even put down his chopsticks and picked up the spoon next to him, one spoonful was three, four or five shrimps, and the speed of chewing also accelerated.

Later, he didn't even use the spoon, he grabbed it directly, with a handful in his left hand and another in his right hand, and his cheeks were even more bulging, and after a few bites, he swallowed it, not caring about the appearance of eating.

Finally, 10 o'clock still arrived, and with a "tick", the team invitation interface of captain Yang Feifei jumped out.

Hey, he sighed in his heart, and finally stuffed it into his mouth, Ah Wen shook his hand, turned off the live broadcast room of the female anchor, and clicked it again, clearing his hand, and the mess on his mouth, before clicking the [agree] button of the team invitation.

It was dark in front of him, and then it lit up again, and Ah Wen once again came to the game hall of the captain Yang Feifei.

The rest of the team also appeared one after another, and in less than 10 seconds, the five members of the Jiashi team gathered together again.

"Alright, let's get started." Captain Yang Feifei's voice was a little wooden, it seems that the recent continuous cultural classes are a bit difficult for a veteran like him who graduated from junior high school, and it consumes a lot of brain cells.

For training in the virtual reality world, of course, the Jiashi Club also has arrangements, stipulating that 3 "Smart Battles" must be conducted every day, as well as 1 "Little Adventure", if there is still extra time, we will communicate with each other, analyze the battle situation, and hold a summary meeting.

According to the previous practice, if you come up, you will still have a "smart battle" first, of course, it is a team of five people.

With the click of the captain Yang Feifei, in just three seconds, Ah Wen felt that his eyes were dark, and he entered the game with the other team members.

Quickly adjusting to the sense of trance and weightlessness, Arwen immediately began to look around.

It was a small room of about twenty square meters, with no door, four long black leather sofas against the wall, connected together, and in the center of the room was a square, half-height low table, on which was divided into 10 by 10, a hundred small compartments.

The five people in the team, including themselves, were all sitting on the sofa.

However, it is worth noting that the clothes on the five people are not the virtual clothes they originally wore, but have been replaced with another set of clothes.

No, strictly speaking, it is another five sets of clothes, and the clothes on the five people are the same style, but the colors are different.

He was wearing a bright red short-sleeved shirt, red trousers, red sneakers, and a red hat, and a big "fire" on his chest.

The captain next to him, Yang Feifei, is dressed in bright yellow, with a [gold] character on his chest, deputy captain Song Xin is light brown, the word [earth], Sun Xiaoqiang, who blows bubbles, is light blue, the word [water], and the most unlucky is Ye Chun, who is green and oily, and the word [wood].

It is not difficult to analyze that the five people of their own family represent the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth!

However, what are the rules of the game this time? What is the relationship with the five elements? Why can't I see other players? And what's going on with this 100-compartment table?

"Tick"

Fortunately, before the five people in the room could express their doubts and discuss their own home, the system's prompt sounded:

"The name of the game: Five Elements Chess

……

Current Surviving Team: 20

Your team number: 8

……

Looking at this long row of dense game rules, all five members of the Jiashi team opened their mouths wide and were speechless.

This is the most complicated game they have encountered by playing the game "Smart War" so far! It's maddening that there are small rules in a big rule!

But fortunately, before the game officially starts, the system gives everyone 10 minutes to think, discuss, and decide on countermeasures.

"This ...... How is this going on? Captain Yang Feifei was obviously a little unable to cope with these for a while, and his tone was full of confused questions.

"Well...... this" Ye Chun touched his chin, frowned and thought: "Actually, it's not difficult, it's just to choose a chess piece to play chess, but the route of this chess piece is relatively free, and it's almost the same as the queen in chess...... It's complicated, let me think about it. ”

Sun Xiaoqiang, who was next to him, also made a suggestion: "They only stipulate that one chess piece must go down in less than ten minutes, and there is no limit to the number of chess pieces that can go down at one time, we can completely go down at the beginning, form a formation of five elements, protect each other, and put a shield on each chess piece......

"You're stupid!" Song Xin next to him interrupted him: "With the addition of the shield state, we can't move, we can only be beaten!" And what's the use of a layer of shields, there are 20 teams here, and they only need to gather 3 teams to easily eat us all! You can't do it all at once! ”

"That's right! You can't go all down at the beginning, it's easy to be caught all in one go! Ah Wen also agreed: "It's still one by one, if anyone is beaten into the [seriously injured] state, then send someone down to rescue, anyway, didn't the above say, will it be directly inserted into the chess sequence?" If you go down, you can play chess. ”

"I'm in favor of that." Sun Xiaoqiang over there also said: "But I think the key to this game should be in chess, although the chess pieces have two lives, but if two teams fire at you at the same time, it is inevitable to die, so the player who goes down must be optimistic about the form, and must not be surrounded by two chess pieces, and every move must be carefully considered!" ”

"I agree with it after careful consideration, but I think that this choice of chess is also very important, only the same can achieve [attack], so we must choose a chess piece that is not easy to be targeted at the beginning, as long as there are few chess pieces on the field, it is convenient to dodge." Captain Yang Feifei finally got the hang of it.

"Other teams may think the same way, and there are only 5 chess pieces, how do you know which one is not easy to target?" Vice captain Song Xin retorted.

"Gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, I think, or soil is the least easy to target, such as fire, water, is more common, so the first one I suggest to go down to [earth], so the chance of encountering [wood] should not be great." Yang Feifei expressed his opinion completely.

"Not necessarily, right? If everyone thinks so, wouldn't it be all [earth] that goes down? And [wood] isn't unusual, is it? Everyone has it, and they can choose to play again in the next game. Ye Chun expressed a different opinion.

"I don't think these are the key points, the key point is what will happen to the people who go down!" Ah Wen thought for a while and said: "I think, the person who goes down will definitely not be able to communicate with the people in our room, that is to say, his every move needs to be decided by himself, whether it is war or peace, and how to avoid the attacks of others, it is up to him!" That's the hard part! ”

"That's right! We are 20 teams, and the first time we go down is 20 people, maybe all five elements, in such a chaotic situation, to live to the end, this is a knowledge. Sun Xiaoqiang agreed.

"By the way, how did the teacher use game theory in today's class? What functions do you want to list? Yang Feifei suddenly had a head.

"Columns of fart functions, where do we find functions for you to list? It's not hard for me to watch this game. Song Xin continued to retort: "The time is almost up, go down one person first, and then everyone will improvise and arrange for others to go down, but then whether to save people first, or hit people first, when the time comes, discuss specifically!" ”

"Okay, then who's going down first?" Captain Yang Feifei looked around at everyone.

"I'd better go first." Ye Chun stood up: "I'm covered in green, it's very uncomfortable, it's better to die early and be born sooner." ”

……

At the end of the ten-minute preparation time, Ye Chun clicked on a grid slightly near the corner on the desktop in the center of the room and chose to enter.

In an instant, with a "brush", he turned into a green light, from large to small, into a hologram, appeared in this grid, and looked around blankly.

Followed by.

"Brush" "Brush" "Brush" ......

The sound of turning light was endless, and on the bubbles in all directions, 19 clear holographic figures appeared one after another.

The first game of the five-element chess game has officially begun!
