There was silence in the palace.

Several commanders stood silently by the pillar below.

The ruler at the throne was silent.

He turned his back to the group of right-hand men and looked at the large, transparent round crystal dome above him, trying to get some kind of revelation from above.

Sunlight cast through the crystal into the temple, gilding Kebley and his throne with a divine golden light.

All of them didn't say a word.

It was as if something unseen and unspeakable was peering through the palace, and no one wanted to break this taboo.

Suddenly, there was the sound of a hurried run outside.

Before the man arrived, the voice arrived.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, a monster from the Yao Clan has landed outside the Dog City!"

Kebley turned: "Make it clear." ”

The one who came to say goodbye was a short, undead warrior.

He knelt down on one knee to the throne: "Your Majesty, that monster is covered in black robes, and its form is more burly and massive than that of ordinary Yao people, it has no eyes, and it wears a helmet that completely envelops its face. ”

"It was made of gold or silver, and on its back there were two high bulges that looked like bones or folded wings, unrecognizable under the black robe."

"Judging by the scouts, it's not a living being, but it's not any undead life that exists. The monster could talk, it was talking to Master Charles. ”

"The soldiers didn't dare to approach, they only heard 'Menes has poor basic skills', 'he understands backwardly, and he can't operate', 'teach him a good lesson'...... Such sporadic discourse. ”

As soon as these words came out, the commanders couldn't help whispering.

Menes, who can't compete with Dog City, was actually evaluated as weak by the monsters sent by the Yao clan, looking at that posture, it came from afar to teach Menes a lesson.

The situation is disturbing.

"Shut up!"

Kebley let out a low roar.

Silence returned to the palace.

"Revisit."

Soon, another warrior flew back.

"The mind-reading devil is heading towards Menes' area!"

The warrior said with some nervousness, "Your Majesty, that monster has mastered the art of mind reading. It is terrifying to be able to detect the arrangement of all our warriors just by looking left and right, and even predict the next move of each of our soldiers......"

The commanders looked at the leader on the throne in unison.

Keyeli just said calmly, "Got it." Keep exploring. ”

……

A new round of intelligence from the front was again sent to the palace.

"Your Majesty, that incomprehensible monster is called the Chess King, and he claims to be one of the Yao Clan's holy wishes. It came here to play chess with Menes. ”

This news made everyone a little confused.

Immediately after that, the next scout arrived.

"Report! Mr. Chess King crossed the front line and met Menes! Menes fled! ”

“……”

The court was in an uproar.

The commanders could no longer hold back and rushed up one after another, surrounding the messenger and questioning him.

"Did you see it with your own eyes? Soldier, you are responsible for everything you say, do you know what you are talking about? ”

"How did we meet? Why did Menes run away? Are they at war? ”

"Say it! Make it clear, what's going on! ”

"You're talking about a meeting, not a game of chess? Why did Menes run away? ”

……

Faced with all kinds of cross-examination, the undead warrior stammered, "I saw it with my own eyes, with my own eyes." Really, really, Commanders, it's true. ”

"As soon as the monster appeared, Menes immediately woke up. As soon as he saw the chess king, he ...... Fled. ”

"The chess king has some kind of incomprehensible curse, Menes becomes extremely weak in front of it, as if the strength has been sucked away by the opponent, Menes cannot resist the chess king at all. These are what the fighters saw with their own eyes, you can ask Commander Charles, he was on the spot! ”

“……”

As soon as these words came out, all the people in the palace looked at each other.

Kebley was a little upset: "Call Charles back!" ”

"Yes."

……

Charles hurriedly arrived at the palace and knelt down on one knee to the ruler on the throne: "Your Majesty." ”

"I've gotten back to the others, tell me what you see and know, and I want all, no detail, not a little bit."

Keyely's voice was heavy.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Charles brushed his thoughts, trying to calm his breathing.

He was still immersed in the incredible experience he had had before.

"I received the Yao envoy at the gate north of the Dog City. He introduced himself and said that his name was Chess King, a chess player of the Yao clan, and he had come to Dog City to play chess with Menes. ”

"Do you believe it?" Kebley asked rhetorically.

"My subordinates don't know."

Charles was careful with his words: "However, the chess king also revealed some news, saying that Menes had pestered Yaoshen in a duel before, and after losing, there was no news...... So this time, Yaoshen sent someone to visit to see if he was okay. ”

Kible: "...... Go on. ”

"The chess king and I said as we walked that there was no need for the soldiers to stare at him, he was not a member of the fighting team, and he came here to play chess. The chess king has a special ability to predict our next move, which is so amazing that it is hard to believe unless you have witnessed it. ”

Charles' eyes snapped up on the monster's every move.

"Once on the front line, the chess king went straight to the area where Menes was. As soon as the chess king appeared, Menes immediately got up from the ground and fled into the distance......"

Kebley's pitch-black face turned slightly red, a sign of his emotional agitation.

"Escaped? Where did you flee to? ”

Menes fled in the direction of the area where his tomb had been, and he shrunk his body with great speed. The chess king chased all the way to Menes's grave, but he didn't find any trace of Menes, he should have been hiding, and it would take some time to find him. ”

The tentacles on Kable's head trembled slightly, and he tried to suppress his anger and unwillingness.

Eventually, his shoulders slowly calmed down: "Does the chess king really have the ability to make Menes weak?" ”

"It's not so much weakness as it is a ...... Special rules apply. Indeed, as soon as the chess king appeared, Menes himself became visibly weakened. Charles replied.

"Sure enough."

Kebley paced back and forth beside the throne.

"It is the power of the title of [White City Decisive Battle], if Menes continues to win, he will be able to completely suppress the enemy, so that the enemy will have no power to fight back in the face of him, and can only surrender."

"I asked you to send a lot of things over before, just to avoid him using this title against us, which would be a trouble."

Charles suddenly realized, and his eyes flashed red.

However, Menes uses this title, and if he is defeated, he will also gradually struggle to deal with the winner. This is a double-edged sword, and the power of the title is only to further extreme and accumulate the strength and weakness, and reduce the process loss. ”

"If I'm not mistaken, Menes should have suffered a series of heavy defeats to Yaoshen. The strength and weakness have been unbalanced, and he will no longer have the ability to face Yaoshen, which is also the result of Menes' instinctive behavior...... When he encounters a truly strong person who surpasses him, he is killing himself. ”

Kebley sighed: "Whether it's me or Menes, in the end, it's still a little weaker." My ability to symbiosis must be at close range for it to work, and there will be no second chance for my precious opportunity. ”

Seeing the King of the Tomb showing rare tiredness and self-blame, Charles couldn't help but feel unwilling.

"Your Majesty, can you be open and honest with the Yao clan...... Hopefully they'll help you take control of Menes? According to my contact with them, as long as the price is in place, many things can be discussed. ”

“……”

Kebley looked up at the sun behind the dome.

"Charles, my pain is the pain of my own weakness. The appearance of Yaoshen is just to clearly show this fact again...... Even if there is no Menes incident, there will be other events to verify this. ”

"After all, Dog City is a dead city stuck in the past, and it will only grow weaker and weaker, even if it once buried a large number of gods. But life cannot be born here, the rules of the world are sealed and bound, and it is a giant that continues to decay. ”

"Well, recognizing one's weaknesses and limitations is also a necessary ability to survive. Now let's talk about how to talk about Menes' business with the Yao. ”

……

Leaving the palace, Charles joined the chess king waiting at the north gate of the city.

"I'm sorry for the wait."

"It's fine."

The chess king in the black robe didn't seem to care, he just said: "It's a pity that I couldn't play chess this time." Menes actually escaped, this guy is really fragile, was he really a god before? ”

Charles could only smile awkwardly.

After returning to the Resurrection Kingdom, Charles came non-stop to visit Catgrass outside the temple.

"Catgrass Lady...... That is the case, and we hope to receive strong help from you to control what is now Menes, for which we are willing to pay a handsome handsome. ”

Catgrass did not take a stand.

The wise worm next to him spread his hands and said, "So, how much is Mr. Kibleley willing to pay?" The other party is a title god, and our Yao clan is a race that advocates peace, so it is very difficult for us to intervene in your own affairs......"

"We have always had the greatest respect and respect for Lord Yaoshen."

Charles raised his right index finger: "Lord Keyeli is willing to pay 100 million Flame of Faith for Lord Yaoshen to give us permanent control of Menes." ”

Wise Worm and Cat Grass glanced at each other.

Maocao finally spoke: "When it comes to a god-related matter, I must first ask Lord Yaoshen. ”

"Understood, I can wait."

Charles nodded.

About an hour later.

Catgrass slowly opened her eyes, and she stretched out her paws forward: "The Great Yao God has agreed to participate in this cooperation. Then I wish us all the best in our cooperation and the capture of Menes as soon as possible. ”

Charles let out a sigh of relief and shook his claws.

"With the help of Lord Yaoshen's power, I think we will be able to accomplish this goal soon!"

Both sides took what they needed, and both showed relaxed smiles.
