Benjamin had no choice but to step onto the chessboard under the almost angry glare of the white chess piece opposite. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

That's right, at Draco's behest, it was the king he was about to replace.

The pawn slowly turned its head, looked at Benjamin, and then took off the crown from its head and put it on Benjamin's head. The king himself staggered out of the chessboard with stiff steps.

"What should I do next, Draco?" Benjamin was a little uncomfortable with the crown, and to be honest, it was a bit too heavy.

Draco finally found his home turf, and he looked a little happy: "Just stand there, don't move, Your Majesty." ”

The king, whether in Wizard or Chess, is not allowed to be eaten, and unless there are special circumstances, the king is the only piece that can go to any adjacent tile without being attacked by the opponent's piece - in other words, if there is someone who has to be sacrificed in this level, it will certainly not be the one who takes the place of the "king" piece.

This means that Draco's own life may be in danger, while Benjamin will not.

Obviously, Benjamin thought of this, and a trace of doubt flashed through his pupils.

"Why don't you become king yourself? I mean, aren't you afraid of having your head cut off by the knight on the other side?"

In fact, the knight in white armor had already raised the spear in his hand high.

Mighty and majestic.

"Oh, how could I be eaten. The Black Knight is a very mobile class (similar to the "horse" of chess), and if these pieces really go crazy and are ready to attack me, won't you use magic?"

Draco's face was full of sarcasm.

Well, Benjamin spread his hands, he felt like he was meddling again.

"Okay, then I'll listen to you. It's just that you don't want to make a mistake, I mean, I really don't want to be shot or put on the bench. Benjamin couldn't help but remind.

After that, on the edge of the chessboard stood two black chess pieces that had just retreated, and they stood quietly on the edge of the chessboard. Neither of them had facial features, and Benjamin and Draco didn't even know if the two pieces were also watching this strange wizarding chess game.

It's still chilling to think about.

"According to the rules, white moves first. Draco cleared his throat before speaking into a blank space across from him.

Benjamin shrugged his shoulders, he absolutely all of this was really funny. "Enough, Draco, do you think the pawn on the other side will be able to understand you?"

As if to verify that Draco was right (and possibly to punch Benjamin in the face), the pieces moved two squares forward from among the white pieces standing across from them, a white "Praetorian Guard" in heavy armor.

Normally, they can only advance one square in a straight line, but if they are on the first step, they can choose to go one square or two.

The pawn's method of eating is different from the direction of the move, it is a straight and diagonal eat, that is, if the pawn has an opponent's piece in one square diagonally, you can capture it and occupy the square.

When white is done, it's black's turn to act.

Black was very cooperative with Draco, and whenever he asked for a piece to go, they seemed to be able to understand human speech, and advanced to the square that Draco had asked for, but when Draco needed to use a "real" or "living" piece, it was extremely troublesome.

"Benjamin, can you go a block ahead?"

"Can I stay still? They can't eat me. Well, well, I just want to be lazy. Benjamin knew that even with the psychotropic potions, he was still weak.

If Professor Quirrell had rushed over at this time, perhaps he would have to think of a better reason.

Draco ordered another Praetorian Guard to move forward a square.

Then it came right under the hooves of a white knight. Sure enough, in the next second, Benjamin saw that the white knight seemed to really pull the horse rope in his hand, the horse's hooves were raised high, and the spear in his hand attacked down so hard.

The black soldier raised his shield as if to fend off the White Knight's attack, but it was useless.

His shield was picked open by the white knight with a sharp spear, and with a loud bang, the metal shield was blown away, and the white horse trampled the black soldier under his feet, and then the white knight swung the spear in his hand and plunged it firmly into the black soldier's chest.

With the sound of a stone crackling, the Black Praetorian Guard split in the middle, splitting in two.

The Black Knight, who had been standing on the edge of the chessboard, moved, and he came to the chessboard and dragged the cracked Black Praetorian Guard out of the board. Then the black knight and the king beside him stared indifferently at the chessboard.

Both Benjamin and Draco fell silent for a long time.

In the end, it was Benjamin who spoke first.

"So, if it was me, I'd be dead, right?"

Draco nodded, but he felt that Benjamin's words made no sense, no one had ever been on the front line of the king.

Draco glanced at the horses beneath him, and the spear in his hand, sweat dripping from his forehead.

"Okay, didn't we just discuss this? Just be serious, and there won't be a problem. And you can't still use magic......"

In fact, Draco himself noticed that his voice was getting lower and lower.

No matter how good Benjamin is, he is only a first-year student.

And this is clearly the magic used by an extremely skilled wizard.

"Of course, I mean, the white pieces on the other side moved. It's our turn. Benjamin straightened out his crown and finally showed a bit of a king's momentum.

Draco nodded, and resumed ordering the Black Knight to move forward.

As for Benjamin, he was almost spinning in circles, and he was certainly protected as the key to winning or losing this game.

Slowly, there were constantly pieces being punctured, slapped off by stools, and crushed by horses' hooves.

Then their expressionless faces, unable to show joy or anger, were dragged out by the other chess pieces.

When the other Black Knight was knocked unconscious by the White Queen, Draco even heard the woman's almost maniacal laughter.

He involuntarily felt a chill.

Benjamin's face is getting worse and worse.
