December 24, twilight, Atlantic Ocean.

On the A-deck of the Titanic, the afterglow of dusk sprinkled in, shining in this luxurious walkway, and the cheeks of teenagers and girls were shrouded in a faint halo.

Anson Deer and Asuka had been on this deck for a short time.

Parisian cafés, staterooms, gyms, lounges, and the Terrace Palm Restaurant – each venue exudes a sense of luxury, with dark gold wallpaper on the walls for most occasions.

Uesugi Asuka yawned and said impatiently, "Say it's free exploration, or I'd still sleep." ”

"You sleep, so that whatever reward I explore, I can swallow it to myself." Anson Deer didn't care.

"Ruthless." Asuka narrowed her eyes.

Anson Deer shrugged, "The A deck is empty, and the B deck has also been visited, and there is nothing worth exploring." ”

"Go down." Asuka said.

"Well, it's going to have to go down, there's still a lot of deck to explore." Anson Lu looked at his phone with great interest, "Don't you think it's funny, haven't you watched the famous "Titanic"?" ”

Asuka raised her eyebrows, "It's far from it, it feels like the reality isn't as good as the movie set." ”

"But it's also fun."

"Otaku are like you?"

"I'm just a movie fan, okay, it's fun!"

The two took the old-fashioned light elevator in the middle of the aisle and descended, and the elegant gates opened to both sides to the D deck of the Titanic.

The A deck, the B deck and the C deck, these upper decks are basically for the use of the rich, and the special class and first class are arranged on these decks.

The D Deck, also known as the "Saloon Deck", consists of several large cabins, from which you can see some of the common areas of the third and second classes.

Uesugi Asuka hugged her shoulders and yawned the whole time, and she followed Anson Deer, relying on Anson Deer to lead the way to explore, and there was a shocking scene in a lounge on the D deck.

"Ah——!!!h

Uesugi Asuka screamed and ducked behind Anson Deer, a frail and weak boy.

"Damn...."Anson Lu was also stunned, "This, what is this?" ”

In his dark brown eyes, two figures were playing a board game in the lounge, they were nobly dressed, but their exposed skin was hazy and transparent, like ghosts that would dissipate at any moment.

"Oh, it's just a ghost." Asuka narrowed her eyes and regained her composure.

Anson Lu said disdainfully, "No, how can there be a dragon who is afraid of ghosts, it is really a loss of dragon face." ”

"The water in the Atlantic, it's cold."

"I'm sorry, I was wrong, I'll forget about it, absolutely no one was scared just now, and no one hid behind me." Anson Lu said angrily.

He didn't want to be martyred in the Atlantic Ocean with Xiong Haodong, come on, the air in Hokkaido and Iceland is cold enough, does he want to try how harsh the waters of the Atlantic Ocean are in winter?

"It's good to forget about it, so these two people...."Asuka nodded in satisfaction and walked forward to herself, "Ah——!!! ”

Anson Lu narrowed his eyes, and the two ghosts suddenly turned their heads, revealing a face full of holes and rotten faces, even the eyeballs were about to be squeezed out, and the corners of the mouth were slightly upward.

Asuka Uesugi hid behind Anson Deer again, with tears in her eyes and stubbornness on her face:

"I command you, stand before me."

"Oh."

Anson Lu sighed softly and walked forward nonchalantly.

He really began to feel that this thing behind him was a bit strong and dry, obviously it was a dragon, and he would be scared by this kind of thing, the ghost samurai of Hokkaido are much more terrifying than this thing, okay!

Although Asuka is indeed very domineering, I have to describe how Anson Deer feels about Asugi Asugi.

She is as domineering as an arrogant penguin, walking with arrogant steps, shaking her head and coming to your feet and pecking at your feet.

Completely, it doesn't give people a sense of threat, okay?

"It's disgusting..... Uesugi Asuka slice turned over her cheek and complained:

"Why do you look so disgusting, I'm starting to regret entering this dungeon, but it's not that scary, it's just a little disgusting."

"Hello." Anson Deer said to the ghost on the left.

"You, okay." So said the ghost.

Its eyeballs suddenly protruded from its sockets, fell to the ground, and rolled to Asuka's feet, blood spurting wildly from its empty sockets.

"Huh?"

Asuka lowered her head and glanced at what touched the soles of her shoes.

The next second.

"Ah——!!!h It's the dragon roaring.

Anson Lu sighed on his forehead, and said with a numb scalp:

"I'll ..... Otherwise, your old man should hurry up and get out, this shock is much more terrifying than a ghost, even if I beg you, I will be scared out of my illness by you if I am not sick. ”

"Xiong, Xiong Haodong....." Asuka raised her teary eyes, she bit her lip lightly, and had a stubborn expression not to be outdone, "I'm waiting for you." ”

"Brother Dong has already swam back to Shangshi City, and there is no one to accompany me to swim in the Atlantic."

"Then you, swim back too!"

"If I swim back, there will be no one in front of you."

“.......”

"Do you really want me to swim?" Anson Deer tilted his head.

"Well, it's me who's wrong...."Uesugi Asuka hugged her shoulders, she raised her beautiful little face, trembling fingers, and gently tapped her arm, "You go on." ”

“Okay。”

Anson Deer turned his head and said to the 'Eyeless Ghost':

"Excuse me, what are you doing?"

"We're playing chess, Western chess, do you want to play?"

An eyeless ghost, grinning at the corners of his mouth.

【Trigger Event - Ice Sea Chess Game】

[Event Objective - Defeat the Eyeless Ghost once in a chess game]

[Incident resolution time: 12 hours]

"12 hours .....," Asuka said, "that is, so hard?" ”

Since the system gives a time limit of 12 hours, it means that this event is definitely not simple.

"Play, I'm the best at chess." Anson Lu casually pushed the other ghost in the seat away and sat opposite the eyeless ghost, "How to play, Western war chess, it seems to be quite interesting." ”

The ghost, which had been pushed away by Anson Deer, fell to the ground and shattered like a glass skeleton.

Its head rolled to Asuka's feet.

I rubbed it, it seems that I have persecuted this little dragon girl again......

Anson Lu raised his eyebrows, he met each other this time, and covered his ears in advance.

However, the familiar screams were not heard.

Asugi Uesugi covered her mouth, her face flushed, like a stubborn penguin, her awe-inspiring eyes with tears in her eyes, staring at Anson Deer, as if to say-

'Look, I'm not scared this time. ’

'That's good, come on. ’

Anson Lu gave him an encouraging look back, and he withdrew his gaze, his brown eyes looking at the chessboard.

There are well-shaped, half-palm-sized chess pieces parked on it.

Judging by their appearance, it is possible to roughly distinguish the types of these chess pieces - red dragons, crows, knights, warriors, archers, swordsmen, kings, masters, and so on.

"How long do you have to take?" Asuka couldn't stay for a second, but she was afraid that Anson Deer would be slapped to death by this ghost.

"Ten minutes....."

Anson put his hand to his chin and looked at a 'game rules sheet' handed over by the eyeless ghost.

Uesugi Asuka tilted her head, "Just ten minutes?" ”

"Three minutes to get started...."Anson Lu swept through the rules of the game and said nonchalantly, "Seven minutes to solve." ”

........

........

About nine minutes later.

Anson Lu moved the chess pieces symbolizing 'king', 'crow', 'red dragon', and 'swordsman' forward one square at the same time, and said indifferently in a voice:

"General."

He said with his hand on his chin, and while looking at the rule table, he scolded and complained:

"Uh, it should have won, right, I'll go, what kind of stupid chess, there's no logic at all, damn, the combat power of an ice dragon is worth seven or eight chess pieces for me, no wonder it hasn't been passed down to future generations."

At this time, the 'Ice Dragon' chess piece on the side of the eyeless ghost was suddenly torn apart by an invisible force and completely shattered.

On the chessboard, only the five chess pieces of Anson Deer remained.

[The winner of the chess game is Anson Deer]

The eyeless ghost stared at the chessboard in amazement, its boneless hands covering its cheeks, and it wailed in disbelief, muttering ugly English:

"It's impossible, it's impossible, what a talent this is, just one game to get this combination?!"

"This can't be ——!!!"

In the next moment, its body crumbled to ashes and vanished.

Asugi Uesugi looked at Anson Deer in confusion, and although she had been watching intently, she hadn't sorted out the rules until the end of the game.

On the other hand, Anson Deer only took 30 seconds to get started with the rules.

Rather, he seems to be studying on the sidelines, and he doesn't pay much attention to it at all......

"Win?" Asuka asked.

"Win."

Anson Lu took a deep breath and continued to complain about the rules:

"I'll go, I'm really angry, the more I think about it, the more stupid I become, you know, there is a chess piece over there that I don't have, called 'Ice Dragon', one chess piece is equal to the combat power of 10 chess pieces, it's completely unfair!!"

"It's a little unfair, I see you've been eaten three or four chess pieces in a row." Asugi Uesugi said lightly.

Anson Lu slapped the rule book on the table and said unhappily, "Only one combination can win, and the remaining two pieces have to be sacrificed to make this combination, it's just inexplicable, right?" ”

"You're not winning." Asugi Uesugi pursed her lips, "Is this the old chess player?" ”

"My buddy only lost to the old man in the neighborhood in chess, because he was so angry that he was about to pick up a broom and smoke me." Anson Deer shrugged his shoulders and recounted his glorious history once again.

[Completed Special Event - Ice Sea Chess Game]

[Received a special event reward - a special chess type that belongs exclusively to the 'Old Chess Player Sequence', an extraordinary board, and 500 experience points.] 】

"Chessboard, is this reasonable?" Anson Lu was stunned for a moment and nodded, "Well, that's reasonable." ”
