On December 20th, the sky was slightly brightened, and the sea in the distance was filled with a waking silver light, and today's Tokyo was still filled with cold winter fog, giving people the illusion of dreaming back to the foggy capital of London.

The abnormal weather for several days has made many people feel uneasy, especially the recent more and more frequent disasters, which make people feel that there is some kind of apocalyptic script being staged.

Ke Zhiguang sat down in front of the TV on the sofa on time again, and continued to concentrate on studying and reviewing.

Slice through yesterday's game board, and a zigzag win rate line swam underneath.

With the advantage of the new layout, he led the way all the way to the winning rate, reaching a maximum of 88%, but as the game entered the middle game, this advantage began to falter, and ushered in an avalanche-like cliff fall in the 56th hand, and came to 15% with one click.

However, fortunately, the next move of the night god Guojing made the winning rate fly back, and the fluctuation of the winning rate continued for several hands like the stock market, and finally stabilized at 40%.

Not many people are qualified to explain this game, which from a human point of view...... Or the entire five-way chess series is an impeccable pinnacle duel, but in the eyes of the gods, the two sides seem to be playing each other's spoons...... It is said that they feed each other with a spoon.

The win rate review ended, and it was roughly the same as I expected, and this victory was more difficult than the victory in the first game, and the steep win rate said it all.

There was a zero "oops" from behind the kitchen counter, which caused Ke Zhiguang to look away: "What's wrong?" Cooking fried again? ”

"Hmm...... Sure enough, boiling curry in a kettle is not a smart move. Zero looked at the mess at the kitchen counter.

In front of her, the golden curry paste filled the kitchen counter, and no one knew how she did it.

Not...... This English maid has gradually developed in the direction of Indian maids, with a curry flavor.

"Alright, you close your eyes." Zero said to Ke Zhiguang.

As soon as you close your eyes and open your eyes, the chaos of the kitchen disappears in an instant, and the non-observation effect of quantum mechanics is particularly outstanding, as long as it is out of sight for a second, it will be automatically cleaned.

"By the way, I defeated the Night God Kingdom in the second game, did anything break out?"

"Nope...... To be honest, I actually gave you an advance for the tape that broke out after you won him in the first game, and in fact, this thing needs you to win his entire five-game chess before it can be exploded. ”

Ke Zhiguang was shocked when he heard it: "Oh? Does that mean you already knew in advance how I would defeat him? ”

"How is this possible, who can say what will happen in the future? If you're really unfortunate enough to be killed by Yajin Kunikyo in the end, remember to pay me this tape. Zero said with a smile.

As if being reminded, Ke Zhiguang asked, "Zero, is it true that the Night God Guojing said that he can also explode props from me?" ”

Zero was stunned for a moment before nodding: "It's true." ”

"So what the hell am I going to break out?"

The props that a person can explode are often closely related to his person, and he really can't figure out what will burst out of himself.

You can't blow up a [Fighting Landlord Skill Roll], right?

"Wait, is it ...... A video of my own personal experience? Ke Zhiguang thought of this coldly.

This is indeed possible.

The gap in his memory may have something to do with this.

Ke Zhiguang recalled the conversation with Yixin again, and the other party specifically mentioned the obsession, which may be the same thing.

Plus the memory materials sealed in the game console...... It seems that there is an astonishing thread strung together.

Zero stared at each other silently, but after a long time, he shook his head: "No, I don't know what will burst out of your body, in my perspective, your props are bursting out of the column showing a question mark." ”

"Question mark?"

"Yes, it's the question mark, the only thing I can see..... It's the black fire it carries, it's a terrible thing. ”

Just as Ke Zhiguang's heart sank, Zero spoke again: "But you don't have to worry, even if you lose to the Night God Kingdom, nothing terrible will happen." ”

"Really?"

"It's true, I can guarantee that." Zero nodded firmly at Kojiguang.

It is still a very reassuring guarantee, as if with this guarantee, all worries have been swept away.

But...... It's like when the gears were running normally, and suddenly there was a stuck, and Ke Zhiguang's thoughts froze.

It's kind of weird.

The incongruity returned, and it surged into my ears like a murmur.

In recent times, whenever Zero has made promises and promises to him, he has developed this sense of reassurance, so that he no longer continues to ask questions, which has become a fixed formula.

Is it possible...... Is this Zero manipulating fortune and giving him psychological hints?

Ke Zhiguang looked at Zero in surprise, as if he wanted to ask everything with his expression, but this time Zero did not answer his question quickly with just one look as before.

She was also staring at Ke Zhiguang with the same deep expression.

After a long silence, she burst out laughing, "Don't be so serious, let's change the subject, do you have any special gifts you want for Christmas?" In addition to the championship trophy of the Imperial City Chess Battle. ”

"You mean to ask me to mention it casually, you can give it to me?"

"Do your best."

"The Gambian Empire is immortal, can you ask for this?"

"Another one, this one is too out of tune, similar to the rise of the Tongliao Empire, etc., is not within the scope of services I can provide." Zero shook his head humorously, looking very idle, "But if you want a sister, it's not like I can't promise you." ”

"That'..... I want a happy ending, is that okay? Ke Zhiguang looked directly into the other party's eyes, and his attitude was extremely solemn.

Zero was stunned.

"With a perfect ending, everyone has to be together, have a banquet, sing KTV, visit a game machine hall, and tell jokes in the chess world...... Ahem, this last one is not forced. Ke Zhiguang spoke calmly, as if asking for a new commitment.

Zero nodded.

"No problem, perfect ending, I'll try to make it happen." Zero spoke firmly.

"Alright, let's work together." Ke Zhiguang said.

This time, she didn't use the psychological suggestion effect of fortune.

......

......

The sound of falling chess pieces echoed in the office, and the atmosphere was particularly cold.

Not long ago, there was a lot of people here, but after last night's battle, there are only a few people left.

"Shi Xiangxia, Fan Xiping, they have fallen." Xiu Ce spoke lonely, he looked at an empty seat in the corner, usually these two people sit here and play chess together, quite unsociable.

is obviously a chess saint, but these two people are very marginal, and the main force of the entire team's cross talk has fallen on him, Dao Ce and Yixin.

"Rain and snow are already gathering again." Dao Ce said, looking at the scenery outside the window.

"It's just a little snow in the past few days, at best, it's called goose feather snow, and the next few days will be a blizzard, right?" Xiuce said.

"As the overall chess battle moves forward, it seems that Kunikyo-sama's plan is getting closer and closer, and I can vaguely feel that the giant tree rooted in this land is about to be burned down, and when it is really completely burned, a big disaster will happen, right?"

At this time, the butler, who had been silent in the corner, replied: "Disasters do happen, but they are only small disasters for ordinary people, and the real disasters will fall on the chess players." ”

"A disaster that befell the chess players?" Xiuce asked in surprise.

"It can't be said that it falls on all fortunes, to be precise...... Or rather, symbolic spirit. The butler's eyes narrowed.

"Symbolic spirit? The first time I heard this title, it means that all symbolic spirits will die in battle? ”

"To be precise, it is devoured, Mr. Kunijing has cultivated the chess world for many years, just for the moment when thousands of fruits are ripe, not only the fruits of fortune in chess battles, but also all the symbolic spirits."

"After devouring it all, he will be able to live forever?" Xiuce asked.

Before the butler could speak, Dao Ce interrupted on the side: "It's just like this, can you really live forever?" ”

"What do you mean?" Xiuce asked.

"Although in today's era, the total amount of fortune is extremely large, but the concept of immortality has set foot in the realm of gods, and the purpose of Kunikyo-sama is not just a simple endless lifespan, but a higher-level life existence......"

"Become a god?" Xiu Ce asked directly.

"That's what it means." Dauche nodded.

The gods, this concept of the night god Kunikyo is also mentioned, saying that it is the highest form of fortune, a computer machine without feelings, and a faithful executor of the laws.

But then he added that this is a bunch of boring stuff.

"Kunikyo-sama, do you want to be such a boring thing?"

As if asked about the point, the butler shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "Of course not, Mr. Kunijing's mortal desires are very heavy, he wants to taste more strong wine, more comfortable sleep, and women or something...... However, he is in his sixties, long past the age to enjoy it all. ”

Being mentioned like this, Xiu Ce and Dao Ce remembered that this person was indeed sixty years old.

"In short, his desires are many and complex, not only material desires, but also spiritual desires, ordinary gods do not have desires, of course Mr. Kunikyo does not want to be them, what he wants to be is ...... A higher God, or a higher man, can also attain all divinity while retaining all human desires! At the end, the butler lowered his voice.

He continued: "Just like what you just said, Mr. Kunijing can't become such a high-level god by relying on ordinary fortune alone, but don't forget that the gods themselves are also a part of fortune...... They also exist behind the player. ”

As the butler spoke, the rumors of the outside world seemed to intensify, and the wood of chess luck, which was invisible to ordinary people, stood in the midst of the raging fire.

In the deserted office, Night God Guojing silently played chess in front of the table, reviewing yesterday's game with Ke Zhiguang, and Yixin also sat quietly on the side to review, and the two of them did not react to the conversation of the other three, as if they were completely immersed in the calculation.

In the metaphysical world, Nidhogg is pulling out the spears that are stuck in his body one by one, and examines these god-given weapons.

The dragon's pupils trembled, reactivating the lines engraved on the spear, turning it into his own weapon!

The last chess piece fell, and the night god Kunikyo leaned back on the office chair with his shoulder blades moving.

Nidhogg's wounds healed again, and sharper, stronger scales grew!

"Now, we're waiting, Ke Zhiguang."

......

......

On December 21, the screen in front of Ke Zhiguang clicked and turned off instantly.

This...... If you're not mistaken, this situation is called a power outage.

"Hey, can you get this power back on?" Ke Zhiguang said to Zero that he was busy impacting the (1010) series just now.

Speaking of which, he's been stuck here for a long time, as if he's been cut off by a gate.

"The game is almost starting, and even if you plug it in, you won't be able to make a round..... In other words, shouldn't you care about why the power goes out suddenly? ”

"I don't know, but I guess it's the pre-war atmosphere."

"Well, that's what it should be."

After a brief and authentic sentence wishing Wuyun prosperity, Ke Zhiguang walked out of the house.

The surrounding area was pitch black, and it looked like there was a large-scale power outage, and countless complaints were heard in the corridor, and the light of the flashlight was dangling in the area.

Not only was there a power outage in this area, but even some commercial blocks in the distance were also closed, adults were scolding, children were happy, and the phone at the power station was blown up, and the response was that there was a problem with the power system and was trying to repair it.

Looks like the eternal night and the blizzard are coming.

When Ke Zhiguang moved here, the chess academy had already moved, and they got together every day to cheer each other on.

"Come on, come on, there's one more game!"

"There is also a ghost in the game, maybe we were let chase two, and we were taken away directly 2 to 0, it started with your flag!"

"Ke Zhiguang's side is to let the two chase the three ......"

"Get out! Shut up! ”

With the start of the special train, the seeds of war were sent to all corners of Tokyo.

The two sides who had just played each other the day before yesterday met again, and the fierce north wind blew the snow on the steps, and the chess players took their seats with folding fans and waited for the game to begin.

Kojimitsu also came to the foot of Tokyo Tower, where electricity is still abundant, and it stands like a god in the middle of Tokyo.

Today's game will be played in a higher place.

Higher than 250 meters, it is almost a lookout, and in Kezhiguang's impression, Conan has a record of jumping from here and ejecting a hard hat to kill the distillery's helicopter gunship.

It's really unlucky to take Conan as an example.

Emptying his mind, Ke Zhiguang stepped into the giant tower, rising step by step in the elevator.

Go up until you reach 250 meters, then turn into walking, step on the steel safety ladder, and continue upward.

Wind and snow swept down from the sky.
