Due to Li Mengxi's sentence of "can't be said", the strategy team inevitably split. The four groups of Jinfan Thieves, the Jinlan Gang, the Silver Crusade, and Valkyrie withdrew, staying where they were and waiting to see the joke.

Others, led by Richard, walked onto the chessboard.

"Everyone, please make sure you are armed one last time!" he shouted as he turned around and shouted after pausing in front of the chessboard, then summoned his armor and weapons with those who had not yet changed their costumes.

The angular and majestic silver armor is naturally very eye-catching, but the most eye-catching is Richard's offensive and defensive weapons.

It was a sword-shaped metal shield mounted on the back of his left hand, with a blue face and white sides, and the same white dragon pattern was drawn with teeth and claws in the center. There was also the one-handed long sword contained in the shield, with a smooth silver blade, a golden eagle-like lattice with wings, and a hilt like blue enamel.

Seeing this set of swords and shields, Hephaestus was the first to lean in.

"Is this the rumored artifact?" he asked with interest.

"Hmm. Richard nodded briskly and replied, "The official name is 'Attack and Defense - Athena', it is a weapon with a set of swords and shields, and since it is called an artifact, the most valuable thing is that it has several powerful and cost-effective magic. In this respect, it is very similar to the magic equipment created by Mr. Hephaestus. ”

"I can't afford to be 'like that'. My magic equipment is infused with at most one spell, and there are several of them. And to be praised by you, Mr. Alphonse, as 'powerful and cost-effective', it must be quite good magic. In the face of this kind of artifact, the magic equipment I have created is nothing more than scrap metal. ”

"It's probably true. But to say 'scrap metal', you're too modest. ”

"It's not modesty, it's self-knowledge. You say yes, Li Mengxi?"

"Hmm? yes. Li Mengxi, who was asked coldly on the side, only responded in a daze.

Immediately, Hephaestus turned his gaze to Romania, who was talking to Nane Hinata not far away, and stared at the silvery-white staff with a golden cross inlay on the top in her hand.

"By the way, is that the other artifact?"

After following Hephaestus' gaze, Richard smiled.

"That's a good piece of equipment, but unfortunately it's not at the level of an artifact. The other, in my brother's possession, Williams, is a two-handed battle axe called the 'Unstoppable-Titan', capable of unleashing defense-defying attacks. Even if you want to block it with something, the axe blade will penetrate the past, and the PK aspect is very powerful, and it is even more useful in the boss strategy. ”

"That's right. It's a pity that I don't have the opportunity to see another one. ”

Looking at the conversation between Hephaestus and Richard, Li Mengxi silently thought in his heart.

His own weapon, "Haotian", is an artifact-level equipment, which is more or less known to those who are close to him. But Hinata Nain's current weapon, "Tsuchigomon", is also an artifact-level equipment, and there is probably no second person other than him who knows about this matter.

Therefore, Li Mengxi is considering whether to tell Richard now. Hephaestus aside, Richard is a good person. But after careful consideration, he decided that he could not say anything.

As the old saying goes, "The man is not guilty of his guilt." ”

He and Hinata don't have the backing of a well-known organization like "Oberiske", and if the news spreads, it might cause a lot of trouble.

In fact, in the past year, Li Mengxi has indeed encountered some people's provocations because of "Haotian", but he is not easy to bully.

He didn't want this to happen to Naine Hinata, after all, this girl had just been designed to be in danger not long ago.

As soon as he thought of this, Li Mengxi walked quickly towards Hinata Nain and Luo Maria.

"Nain, I have something to tell you. As soon as she spoke, Li Mengxi grabbed Hinata Nayin's hand and pulled her towards a place where no one was around.

"Mengxi?wait, wait a minute!"

Seeing this scene, Romaria didn't stop it, but shrugged helplessly and turned to find Richard.

"What's the matter with such a hurry?" asked Naine Hinata after the two stopped.

So, Li Mengxi also turned to face the girl.

"You haven't told anyone about the 'Earth Palace', have you?"

"That's right!" It was only at this time that Hinata Naine remembered that there was still such a thing, and she subconsciously touched the thin sword on her left waist, "Speaking of which, I haven't told Richard about this sword yet." ”

"It's good that I didn't say it, and I don't have to tell anyone about it in the future. Don't even mention it even if it's a friend like Jasmine. ”

"Why?"

"Because, it may put you in danger!"

"Dangerous? You mean, I could be targeted because of the artifact? Don't worry, Romania and they ......."

"There's always something in the world! Anyway, if I don't let you say it, you don't say it! Come on, I'm really worried about you!"

Looking at Li Mengxi's worried gaze and realizing that the young man was indeed being affected by himself, Hinata Naine was a little happy in his heart.

"I see. Just don't say it. So, she said a little shyly.

"Whew!" Hearing this, Li Mengxi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hand, you can let go. ”

"Huh?" Hearing Hinata Nain's shy words, Li Mengxi realized that he was still holding the other party's hand, so he immediately waved it at a loss as if he had touched boiling water, and finally hid behind him.

"Sorry, I didn't notice. ”

"It's okay. What is your strategy compared to this?"

"Didn't Richard say it, can't say it. ”

"Can't you say it to me?"

Hinata Nain blinked her big watery eyes and asked, Li Mengxi didn't know what to say. Because in fact, you can't say it to others, and the person who can't know the most is Hinata Nain.

"Mybrother!

This call is just right for Li Mengxi.

"It's over!" After a loud response, he said to Hinata again, "Let's go." ”

The words were closed, and he hurriedly took a step. Seeing this, after Naine Hinata pouted unhappily, she could only follow.

Back in front of everyone, Li Mengxi looked at everyone who was fully armed, and finally looked at Richard.

"Richard, do you have anything else to say?"

Not really, but there is one last thing. As he spoke, Richard raised his hand and slid in front of him, sending the team invitation to the other six people who participated in the strategy one by one.

There is no reason or necessity to refuse.,It's better to say that since you want to attack the level boss together, it's a matter of course.。 So, everyone clicked to confirm.

After confirming that everyone had joined the team, Richard suddenly let out a rather imposing roar: "The king's gift!"

This was clearly the triggering act of activating the skill, and then Richard's shield emitted a dazzling light, and the bodies of the seven people were also enveloped in light.

It's a buff magic for the whole group, and it's actually a high gain of 50% increase in HP, MP, and other parameters. Presumably, this is one of the magic that comes with the artifact.

Looking at the logos of the buffs lined up under the status bar, everyone showed a look of surprise.

"In this way, you can be considered truly prepared. Richard smiled confidently.

"Hmm!" Li Mengxi nodded with the same smile, "Then, let's go!"

As a result, the seven chess piece holders, led by Li Mengxi, each walked to their own positions on the chessboard.

Lee Mengxi is the king, Nain Hinata is the guard on the left, Sinapus is the guard on the right, Richard is the chariot on the right, Emily is the chariot on the left, Lomaria is the knight on the left, and Igarashi suke is the knight on the right.

What is missing are two archers, the knight on the right and the knight on the left.

When you step into the chess grid, a window immediately pops up in front of you: Do you want to participate in the chess game of the gods?

There is nothing to hesitate about.

Li Mengxi raised his finger and lightly pressed it on the "Confirm" button, and the others naturally did the same.

When everyone confirmed, a thin curtain of light stretched along the outer edge of the entire chessboard. Although it looks like a "paper wall" that can poke a hole with a light poke of a finger, it is actually a copper wall that can be hurt by tens of thousands of efforts.

Immediately after, a console-like thing slowly emerged from under the ground in front of Li Mengxi.

The waist-high stone pillar holds one side, which is exactly the same as the large chessboard, but the board is scaled down to equal proportions. And the difference between it and the big chessboard is that the red and black chess pieces are complete.

Presumably, this is the device that the owner of the king chess uses to control his own chess pieces.

Just as Li Mengxi was thinking this, Richard's shout came from the right.

"Rest assured, my brother! The people who set foot on this chessboard are the ones who believe in you!"

"I didn't believe you. Emily answered, "But, since my boss said I should listen to you, just let me do it!"

"Since that's all said, General, hurry up. Igarashi said, casting a glance.

"Hmm. After nodding, Li Mengxi took a deep breath and let out a voice, "Everyone, this god's chess game is not a real chess game, but a battle with a chess game as a disguise, and it is no different from what we have experienced so far in the battle group! Therefore, the first stage of the battle is very simple, there is no need for any tricks, everyone just needs to focus on doing one thing well! This thing is, crush the opponent head-on-one!"

"It's so simple and clear. Appetite for Miss Ben. As she spoke, Emily picked up the blood-red axe and slung it over her shoulder, and licked her lips as she looked at the black chess pieces on the other side of the river.

"General, it's really interesting to follow you. Igarashi smiled like he was excited about deathmatch.

"Then everyone, gamestart!" said Li Mengxi, mentioning the first fighter on the right.
