Chapter 41, Adversity!
Ye Ruoxue finally left from me, she bit her lip and seemed to have something to say to me. But now, I have no interest in wasting time with her. What I'm going on is a game that will decide my life and death.
Death Beast Chess is absolutely brutal. Losing is death, so you must not lose. Liu Wentao and I were completely nervous, and our eyes were completely focused on the table in front of us.
We each have five chess pieces, and these five chess pieces will determine our fate. With five pieces in hand, we looked at each other and began to prepare to play. The rules are simple. We place a piece face down on the table for each other and open our hole cards at the same time. So that the winner can be determined.
Just like the last death guess, this time the death beast chess tests people's psychological quality even more. In particular, I can't cheat, which makes a lot of my methods unusable.
I looked at each other anxiously, and Liu Wentao also looked at me. And then we both were undecided. I don't know what chess to play. Guan Yao watched from the sidelines, then frowned and said, "This Death Beast Chess is very unfair to Huang Fang. This is because Red has the most powerful chess piece in Beast Chess, while Yellow has only the Mouse. An elephant can be eaten by a rat, but in addition to the rat, an elephant can eat four other pieces. is the strongest pawn. ”
"The rat is different, in that it can eat the elephant, but it is also restrained by the other four chess pieces. In other words, the only thing the rat can deal with is the elephant, and the elephant can deal with the opponent's four chess pieces. In other words, the person who appears as an elephant has a 4 out of 5 chance of winning. And the one who comes out of the rat has only a 1 in 5 chance of winning. ”
Hearing such words, Liu Wentao's eyes lit up. Everyone is a high school student, so naturally they know the rules. He immediately realized his great advantage, and the whole person was much more energetic.
And I'm not surprised, I've known this for a long time. Death Beast is biased in favor of red, where red has an elephant, while yellow has no other pieces to fight except for a mouse. Red has an overwhelming advantage. As long as the level of the two sides is not too different. Then it will definitely be Red that wins.
"Come on, let's get started." Liu Wentao chose a chess piece and then put it on the table, I nodded, looking at the chess piece in my hand with a calm expression. But his head was spinning rapidly.
What am I going to come out of for the first time? Lion or rat? The strongest chess piece in my hand is the lion, and the lion is the most powerful chess piece except for the elephant. It can defeat tigers, leopards and dogs.
And if it's a rat, as long as the other party is not an elephant, I will lose. The rat is no match for any chess piece except for the elephant. But in the first round, will Liu Wentao play the strongest chess piece? I can't guarantee that.
I was constantly changing my expression, observing his expression. Liu Wentao is the same, we are testing each other's ideas. Find a way to play this game.
Is it a lion or a rat? I was caught in a classic dilemma. And Liu Wentao is not like this. He was also undecided. If something happens the first time, what if I'm a rat?
We both stared at each other, and the space was incomparably silent. The two of us were left thinking intensely. Since you can't cheat in Death Beast Chess, you can only rely on yourself.
In the end, I decided to play the lion. Because the risk of a rat is too great, there is only a 1 in 5 chance of winning. Of course, Liu Wentao has a four-in-five chance of winning. But I have a rat in my hand to restrain him. So in the first round, he shouldn't dare to make an appearance!
We both snapped our pieces on the table and looked nervously at each other. At the moment, my heart is beating and my blood is rising. This is a battle that must not be lost.
Holding our breath, we began to draw. I slowly lifted the chess piece, it was a lion! And Liu Wentao was stunned for a moment after reading it, and turned the chess pieces over, which was also a lion.
The first leg is over, lion vs. lion, draw!
We all silently put the lion next to us and moved on to the second round. Now we all have only four chess pieces in our hands, and my chess pieces are tiger, leopard, dog, and rat. His pawns are tigers, leopards, dogs, and elephants.
The second round begins!
I silently looked at the four chess pieces in my hand, and kept thinking in my head. Next is the tiger or the rat? This game of chess is at stake for my life, and I must not be negligent in the slightest.
On the other side, Liu Wentao also made up his mind, and then we each put a chess piece on the table, and then stared at each other. Liu Wentao is of course the dominant red side, but I believe in my intelligence and even more in my soul that has spent the long night.
The game continues to this day, and a lot of people have died. Before you know it, the mindset of everyone in the classroom has changed. Even me. Becoming more and more cold-blooded. Growing disregard for life.
Although I know that once I win, the other party will die. But no one is merciful. It's the same whether it's me or Liu Wentao. We now have one goal in mind, that is, we must win, as for the life and death of others. It's not in the table at all.
In the second round, I ended up choosing the tiger because I didn't dare to say for sure that Liu Wentao would be like a tiger, and my legs were shaking irregularly. The moment the cards were opened, I felt like a condemned prisoner waiting to be shot.
And Liu Wentao is the same, he is covered in cold sweat all over his body, and sweat is constantly oozing from his forehead. The whole person trembled. It's like sitting on pins and needles. Then we opened at the same time.
I am a tiger, and Liu Wentao is also a tiger. In the second leg, it was still a draw.
It seems that we are all a lot more cautious, and no one dares to make key moves. Elephants and rats are both key moves. Once you make a move, if you don't succeed, you will perish. Of course, compared to my mouse, Liu Wentao's elephant has an advantage.
The third round continued and the pieces in our hands became three. I'm left with only leopards, dogs, and rats. And Liu Wentao is a leopard, a dog, and an elephant. This time we're more cautious.
I know that the longer I delay, the higher my odds of winning. If Liu Wentao appeared in the first round and had a four-fifths chance of winning, then the second round became three-quarters, and the third-round became two-thirds.
The more rounds, the greater Liu's disadvantage. Especially in the fourth round, Liu Wentao's winning rate is the same as my mouse, only one-half.
Liu Wentao has also realized that he seems to have planned to make a appearance. And the rat in my hand is already waiting. The rat in my hand is the smallest piece of the beast, but it has the ability to capture the strongest chess piece.
I trembled and put the chess pieces on the table, but my expression was extremely calm. I know that in such a competition, Liu Wentao must not be allowed to see his flaws.
Liu Wentao is the same, he endures his emotions. With the same trembling, he put down the chess pieces in his hand.
Then we turn the pieces over each other. Immediately afterward, the winner was decided.
Round 3. I am out of the leopard, and Liu Wentao is out of the elephant. Liu Wentao wins!
"Hehe, I finally won." Liu Wentao said happily, shouting excitedly. I silently watched the game in front of me. It has to be said that the advantage of the red side is too great. Like this chess piece, there is no opponent except the rat.
In the first few rounds, the winning rate was extremely high. And if I come out of the mouse, if I don't touch an elephant, even the weakest dog, I will lose. This is the suppression of the yellow side by the Death Beast Chess.
In Death Chess, Yellow has a clear disadvantage. Although this disadvantage will slowly disappear as the rounds increase. But no matter what, it is an indisputable fact that Huang Fang is at an absolute disadvantage.
And I was assigned the most disadvantaged position, and Liu Wentao was the red side. That's why it's so easy to win me. Just when Liu Wentao won a game against me, the winner of Duanmuxuan's side had already been decided.
Duanmuxuan failed, and Dong Wenfeng successfully won a game. This made Dong Wenfeng extremely proud. I was slightly stunned. Duanmuxuan is the most advantageous red side, and with his ingenuity, how could he lose to someone like Dong Wenfeng?
"Haha, it seems that Duanmu Xuan is nothing more than that." Dong Wenfeng shouted excitedly. The fat face was full of wild laughter. And Duanmu Xuan was very calm, as if the one who lost was not him.
Sensing that my gaze was on him, he glanced back at me. Under the gaze of my eyes, I turned my head slightly, I think I already knew the reason for Duanmu Xuan's failure. He lost on purpose!
This game has a huge advantage for the red side, plus Duanmu Xuan is so smart. If Dong Wenfeng can't win, maybe he will give up on himself and give up the game. At that time, Duanmuxuan will die with Dong Wenfeng.
In order to prevent him from dying and breaking the net, Duanmu Xuan deliberately lost a game to him. By the way, paralyze Dong Wenfeng's thinking. Let him think that he is nothing more than that. Then Dong Wenfeng will continue to compare with him.
And with Duanmu Xuan's ability, even if he loses a game, it is not a big problem. He's definitely going to win one more game. Of course, even if he wins, he has to pretend that he is lucky to win. made Dong Wenfeng think that he still had a chance to win. As everyone knows, from beginning to end, he has fallen into Duanmu Xuan's grasp. There is no chance of winning at all.
I know that Duanmu Xuan won this game.
Retracting my gaze, I continued to play my hand. Li Mofan and Yang Yaxin, who were next to me, were a little anxious after seeing me lose a game.
"Boss, do you want to take a break. Don't compare yourself to him just yet, there's still time anyway. Li Mofan said.
"That's right. There's no need to compete with him all at once. Yang Yaxin also persuaded.
When Liu Wentao heard this, his face suddenly changed dramatically: "What else are you resting for?" Hurry up and compare! Anyway, sooner or later, it's going to be compared. Of the two of us, one of us will surely die. Either you die or I die! ”
I nodded, sat down again, and looked at Liu Wentao's eager gaze and distorted face, and I sighed slightly. I know that as the curse of the class continues, the classmates in the class begin to distort their individuality, and their personalities become more irritable than before.
Even I am no exception. Perhaps it is this fear that makes us cruel......
