Chapter 553: Publicly-Funded Tourism, New Clues
The next game was as Xia Duo expected, the elf side's routine was basically the same, the beginning was to defend, and then actively exchange the pieces, simplify the chess game, which was also mixed with spell duels, as far as possible to make the color-resistant side's chess piece attack as ineffective.
After some operation, the patient player was very uncomfortable, and there was a feeling that he couldn't use it, and Xia Duo was also very irritable in the audience.
But in any case, Xia Duo did admit that today's game was much more exciting than yesterday. It was still until dusk that today's ten games were over.
In the end, in the 6 games that Nessreel participated in, only 3 games were won, and the remaining two games, 1 loss, 2 draws, and based on yesterday's game, Nessrell has five people in the [Arcane Mystery] project to achieve double wins, a total of 5 points.
Basically, the win is already decided, and even if tomorrow's game is lost, it will not change the result.
But the problem is that a simple victory doesn't mean much, the key is to score, and the difference in points represents substantial benefits.
Last night, when Xia Duo was in the [Annihilation Plane], he learned that in the past snowmelt competition, Nethrel and Yerlan had always had interests to bet on, and now that they have joined Comanso, it is related to the long-term trade agreement between the three countries.
Although Archmage Greta did not reveal the specific gambling plan, it is clear that the greater the score difference, the more benefits are represented!
A policy thing like a trade agreement, even if it is only a small adjustment, will be astronomical when it comes to concrete benefits.
β¦β¦
Back at the Gilsgaard Tower, Archmage Greta came to the door and invited Xia Duo to go to the [Plane of Annihilation] again to train the Patience Player.
"Lord Xia Duo, what is the solution to the elves' redemption strategy?"
"No, and there is no need." Although Xia Duo really wanted to go to the [Annihilation Plane] and use the ten times the time flow speed there to do some personal work, he also knew that only five days was not enough for those players to achieve a qualitative breakthrough in their chess power.
"The elf's chess strength is not as good as ours, the three games that we didn't win today's game are mainly due to the opponent's impact on the chess pieces through spells, as long as this is ruled out, it will be a good win!"
Xia Duo said it very bluntly, and did not deliberately emphasize the role of chess power just because Archmage Greta invited him to train him to play chess, and [Arcane Mystery] is not a pure board game.
As long as the player is strong enough, even if he doesn't know how to play chess at all, he can't lose.
Because, if it is strong to a certain extent, it is equivalent to every time the opponent wants to eat the child, that step will be invalid, and the opponent can't eat the child, so how can he lose?
In reality, of course, the elf players are not strong to that extent, especially when the chess pieces still have the advantage of attacking first.
"Your Excellency Greta, instead of spending five days on chess strength that is unlikely to change qualitatively, it is better to train them in the skills of dealing with the attack and defense of elven spells, and have the advantage of the first attack of the chess pieces, so as to maximize their chess advantage."
"Lord Shado, you have a point. However, whether it is chess strength training, or spell attack and defense skills training, it must be carried out! β
Archmage Greta showed a "I want them all" expression and began to urge Xia Duo, "If it's okay, come with me quickly, any little time we waste here, it will be ten times as much over there!" β
Let's go!
The archmage has said so, what else can Xia Duo do! Of course, he followed, anyway, he never said that chess strength can beat the world, and he can't blame him for losing.
In fact, because of Xia Duo's [Arcane Mystery] plan, Nessreel has already won, and now it is just a matter of winning more and winning less.
Thinking about it this way, Xia Duo has no psychological burden at all, so he can treat it as a publicly-funded tour, and the time is ten times faster, not only can he do some private work, but he can also take a look at the magic training of the arcanist by the way.
So, Xia Duo subconsciously quickened his pace.
Gretta, who was walking in front, noticed the situation behind him, and was stunned for a moment, but then he thought about something and quickened his pace.
β¦β¦
At the same time, far to the east, Comanso.
Perhaps the spring of the Elven Court came too early, and at this time, this small village that looked very dilapidated was already surrounded by flowers and green grass, and Faro and other high mages carried out the [All-Knowing Secret Ritual] from a field of flowers and green grass.
This time, Farrow did not invite other elves to come over to watch the ceremony, some only members of the organization, and of course, a few elders who lived in the elven court came to take a look out of curiosity.
After the ritual, Farrow and his members of the organization did not leave, but lay on a green and fluffy grass, relieving the intense discomfort of breaking away from omniscient state while exchanging information from the ritual with the other casters.
Listening to the small talk of the other members of the organization, Farrow didn't have much to accuse, it was just their way of relaxing, but now that it was getting dark, Farrow wanted to know everything about the oracle's revelation as soon as possible.
"Ladies and gentlemen, do you have any new discoveries about the revelation of the oracle? What will happen to the birthplace of the Alabaster Tower? β
"I'm sorry, Lord Faro, but what I saw was the same as last time, a glow that looked directly at the sun, and although there were shadows wandering on its surface, I really couldn't understand what was going on."
"Me too!"
Then several more of the High Mages who participated in the ritual spoke, and what they saw was almost exactly the same as what they had seen in the previous ceremony, and Farrow sighed silently in his heart.
Perhaps this is the limitation of the [Omniscient Ritual], this kind of near-prophetic ability, in the same spellcaster, can only be realized once, thinking of this, Farrow couldn't help but sit up from the grass, and set his eyes on the Yeerlan High Mage Irian who was still lying not far away.
Last time, Irian didn't participate, this time the omniscient ceremony, he participated in it for the first time, maybe he will have something new to discover?
"Irian, what about you? Do you have any new discoveries? β
"I'm seeing the same as you, justβ" Irian hesitated suddenly.
When Farrow heard that there was a new discovery, he could barely sit still, how could he tolerate Irian's hesitation, "What's that?" Say it! Even if it's an illusion, let's talk about it and discuss it together. β
"In that case, then I'll say it, don't blame me if you make a misjudgment because of this!" Irian joined the Order purely for the sake of Faro's Ancient Spell Scroll.
He didn't want to get involved in any trouble because of this, even if he participated in the [All-Knowing Secret Ceremony] this time, it was only when Faro came up with a tangible benefit that could make his heart move.
"I won't blame you, the main god has not been able to see the future clearly, how can we talk about accurate prediction, it's just one more clue, say it quickly!" Farrow immediately gave assurances.
Several of the other High Mages sat up from the grass, seemingly interested in what Irian was seeing.
