Chapter 718

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

But even if you recognize it, what can you do?

Due to the existence of magic, certain reflections of life in this world make the rules of those chess games more complicated - take wizard chess as an example, it is necessary to design the power of each chess piece, etc., and the extremely cumbersome variables make it impossible for a layman like him to play chess to bet on winning or losing, in fact, except that the opponent is a mentally handicapped orc or something, right?

Not to mention a battle with a Chaturan.

Creatures like Chatulan have no lifespan or anything like that, and they can be said to be born for battle, except for a few species, in terms of strategy, they are by no means much inferior to humans - Edward does not deny that there will definitely be great powers and the like that can win with wisdom, but that power can never be him Edward.

"Thomas also defeated you to go in?" he asked, after a moment's hesitation.

"Thomas, oh, the first guest in a thousand years, he explored the place, cleared the Hall of the Forsaken and won the battle against the two lowest animated constructs, and as a result, he gained a negligible portion of the city's power. The king of Chaturani spoke, his voice melodious, but a perfect combination of majesty and disdain of the ascendant. But the easiest path he chose, so he had to go to the undefended places in the middle of the city. ”

I see......

Edward was wary, so that Thomas had already explored a floating city to have such an increase in power.

"But rest assured. Of the four doors, only one was opened. So the prizes you want will not be snatched away. The master couldn't get any more Chatulane, so he temporarily filled the circle with the two constructed creatures, though it seemed like they weren't up to the task. The bishop of Chaturani sneered similarly: "Although they were defeated in a mere hourglass scale. But we won't repeat the mistakes of the past. In these millennia, we have honed our strength enough to defeat any opponent. ”

The guys just look like they're eager to take the plunge...... Obviously, after a thousand years, they are so bored in this space that they can't imagine it. The Psychic Warlock frowned. Shaking his head, he turned to Ariel and bowed, "Then, it seems that the outcome will be decided by you, Lord Ariel. ”

If you don't want to make a big noise, then you have to obey the rules a little bit first. I don't know if Iriel is a chess master, but the celestial creatures clearly have some advantages in this area - at least not much inferior in terms of calculations, experience, and ability, and if you don't plan to make things too big, then you have to give it a try.

"Wait a minute, why me?"

"No way, I don't know how to play chess. ”

"I mean. Why should I help you?"

"Isn't hoeing the strong and helping the weak the most basic virtue of celestial beings?"

"Weak?"

"At least I'm weaker than you in chess, I'm very self-aware. ”

Looking at the human's hands outstretched, Ariel's hand made a subtle soft sound on the hilt. Celestial creatures didn't seem to be able to express their feelings by rolling their eyes, but it seemed that there was no more appropriate way to express her disdain than to roll her eyes but to roll her eyes - at least she knew that there was no point in verbal exchanges.

However, the Chatulans chose a more direct means to reject the lazy idea of a human being.

"So. Pick your opponents. The voices of the three Chatulans in unison made Edward's brow furrow. "Not to choose one?"

"Since we all appeared together, the meaning was naturally different. ”

"Because the city's judgment is that there is no 'one group' of challengers here, but 'three groups of challengers with the same destination', you can each choose an opponent. But choose at least one. ”

"No, select. Repeat, the opponent. ”

The solitaire-like responses of the three made the psychic mancer's expression even more solemn - or perhaps for a solemn reason, of course, plus Ariel's merciless mocking smile. Although the indifferent smile at the corner of the lips was so holy and soft when it was condensed on the girl's delicate face, it made Edward's gaze stay there for a breath.

"What will happen if we fail?" At this time, the female mage who was still able to distract herself from other uses, obviously a trait that only the strong possessed, and her face was almost as pale as death finally understood her situation at this time, and asked in a trembling voice.

"Loser, death. ”

"In this space, the power of any outsider will be forcibly suppressed to the same level as us, and the rules in the space are determined by us. Bishop Chaturan added the knight's words, and with a wave of his hand, more than a dozen figures walked out of the surrounding space, each of them was the same as him, "Of course, you can also choose to challenge us directly, if you defeat us, then we will naturally immediately give you what you want, however, our power is enhanced by the core of the city, and the result of this is that you will be the enemy of the entire city." ”

Fight against the energy of an ancient magical city.

Or maybe it's not without chance, but it's a troublesome thing, after all, no one knows how much power the city still has left, but even if all the functions are depleted, as long as the complete city core is still functioning, then it has almost infinite energy, which the ancient arcane mages can

"The guy who was defeated by Thomas, can I choose to challenge him too? Or, challenge Thomas directly in this space?"

"Unfortunately, no. Knight Chaturan interjected indifferently, "A group of people, at the same time, at least, only, can choose, a guardian. However, Guardians, between, and battles, are not among them. ”

"Do you need to defeat all of you if you want to dominate the city?"

"So to speak. However, war will only be born between you. All the rights of the loser will be usurped by the winner. In this way, you can be the sole ruler of the entire city. ”

"What a troublesome rule. Edward rubbed his forehead and glanced at the chessboard in front of the guys, "This is a fool...... Then I'll choose your Excellency the knight as your opponent, as for chess, checkers, or I'm still a little confident. It's okay to play backgammon...... Huh?"

The Psychic Warlock was already extremely familiar with the power of controlling the power at this moment, and his expression became a little strange for a while, which made the Blazing Sky Divine Attendant on the side also frown.

"Are you ready?" she sent a message in her spirit, "If I fight, I can destroy the city's core circle in the first place." But this space mixed with maze is up to you......"

Direct combat is not a good option, but in today's situation, it is indeed the easiest and most effective way, and Ariel himself has no special research on war chess, let alone give the initiative to the other party like this.

But the most plausible of these ideas was interrupted by Edward halfway through - the human raised his gaze, and the strange smile on his face made Ariel startled. "My little aunt, that's the heart of the Floating City. Will you fix it if it breaks? This is the most valuable trophy of all......"

"Is now the time to covet riches?"

The sudden fury caused the Blazing Divine Attendant to roar, and the flame light on his body ignited several feet high! But the human just smiled and turned to a few of the constructed creatures.

"These games...... I mean, I can choose to play chess, too?"

"This is a space where spirit and matter project together, and of course you can choose the war chess you are good at. As long as its rules are clear and precise. ”

"Well, since we're all three of us, this game is the perfect fit. You see, what about us, there's, well, the Frozen Throne. It's something we need to guard, and the way we fight to win. That's it...... Well, destroy the World Tree they own, and then we can use these buildings to buy some of our pawns, treasures and stuff......"

The darkness around him receded like a tide, outlining the verdant ancient jungle and the subtle morning mist that spread behind it, and at the same time, the figures of the three Chaturans were in the distance, leaving only the blue color of the eternal ice crystals, quietly building a majestic altar behind Edward, and the light was diffused, and the rumbling breath of death diffused from his feet......

This can also be called war chess, deploying chess pieces, setting strength, gathering resources, fighting opponents and winning.

However, this chessboard is a deep and vast forest, a road that looms in it, and this chess piece is a warrior of the undead and elves who gather, and every commander is equally involved in it, and this victory and defeat is fought with blood and fire, with real attacks. to complete a win or loss.

One qiē and one qiē are all equivalent to a war, or the only difference is that all the qiē are accelerated under the catalysis of power.

The black forest is like waves stretching to the end of the horizon under the night, the red and black fog spreads on the ground, rendering the place to be similar to theirs, the grass and trees are withering, the creatures are decaying, all turning into dead mud and dust, the earth trembles violently under the heavy horses' hooves, and the cold death breath of black people and horses passes through the forest road.

The road was long and winding, the march was silent and swift, but then, in the distance of the forest, some strange sound was gradually becoming clear from a blur - the treetops shook like a black carpet that gradually rolled up, and rushed towards the path like waves on the sea, and the rustling sound merged into a chaotic sound in the blink of an eye!

The black team stopped in an instant, and the men and horses turned their heads in unison, turning the hollow eye sockets lit with scarlet flames in the direction of the trees, but the moment they turned the horses, a huge black shadow had already passed through the swaying forest wall and pounced on them!

It was a knight-like, but at no other, a near-perfect combination—a combination of tall and sturdy horses and mighty warriors, their bodies covered with silver armor, and their thick arms held eight-foot spears, the sharp sheen of which shone in the darkness and became a colorful trail, like an incomparably large blade, so that the cavalry with the inscription of death was split in two in the blink of an eye. Scattered in the violently burning phosphorus fire.

The black knights finished turning, their massive blades swinging into black halos. Every time he swung it, it inevitably brought up a flurry of blood flowers, as if the heavy iron armor on the centaur had never existed. The spiky hooves of the horses kicked the centaurs' ankles, the broken sternum punctured the flesh, and the internal organs of the stumps fell to the muddy ground, the hot blood staining the icy water.

But even the most brave black knight can't face multiple attacks at the same time. This narrow battlefield was not suitable for cavalry - the narrow aisles and the woods on both sides greatly limited the cavalry's most proud assault attacks. But the sturdy centaur warriors had no such worries, and the trees naturally parted their paths around them, and with specially reinforced spears, one by one, pierced through the bodies of the black knights, tearing out a puff of scattered soul fire.

The woods were separated piece by piece, rushing out more and more, more and more figures. The ratio of the two sides has quickly reached a value of one to three, or even four, and in front of such a strong numerical advantage, even the strongest knight can not continue to maintain the integrity of the formation.

But the black knights showed no signs of retreating, and they moved slowly, with their blades. The body, and even the mount, formed a pitch-black wall. The tumbling waves of blades crashed against this wall, tumbling out countless finely dissipated soul flames, but the waves that rolled out. There are finally signs of containment.

Then, there was a faint light under the night sky.

Light.

Golden light.

A golden light descended overhead. The centaur warriors roared angrily, but they had to close their eyes in the face of the fierce light.

The light was so warm, the light was so bright, like a caress from the midday sun, but for war, this strange change meant death—the flame of the soul danced in the eyes of the black knights, and the next moment, with a uniform swing, the boundary between the two teams expanded into a wide open field!

Offensive and defensive castling.

The golden light swayed downward, and then condensed into a human-like image in the air more than ten feet in the air. But the humanoid immediately spread out a pair of wings that converged with light, and shook slightly, so a band of light stabbed diagonally from it, slashing across half of the battlefield!

With a neighing sound, more than a dozen centaurs immediately rolled to the ground, their bodies parted in the tumbling, and the splashes of blood scattered with uncontrollable inertia, and minced flesh and internal organs sprinkled all around, as if those sturdy warriors were nothing more than clay statues.

There was a moment of silence on the battlefield, and everyone who was in the field, even those black knights who had soul light shining in their eyes, turned their eyes at this moment and stared at the dazzling golden light.

But that's about it.

The golden light rippled, no longer bright, the wings of light were raised, the golden dimmed, turned into a human-like image, and landed in the center of the battlefield, countless golden feathers drifted and disappeared behind the glorious armor, as if to indicate that she had been drained of all her energy by this blow.

Then the roar broke the brief silence

One of the centaur warriors who was the first to react had already raised the spear in his hand, and in the midst of all four hooves, he rushed towards Eriel without fear of death.

The sound of horses' hooves, the powerful centaur has the degree of a horse and the command of a human at the same time, and his movements are far more handy than any knight, and during the charge, the long spear shaft in his hand shook slightly, and the tip actually drew an afterimage in the space!

The afterimage makes it impossible to tell where he is attacking. It was difficult to resist with the family, and then at the moment of the exchange, the phantom suddenly fused, piercing the figure of the Blazing Heavenly Divine Servant, and then making her slowly dim!

A phantom!

As soon as the thought crossed his mind, the centaur had noticed a white shadow in the corner of his vision, a golden light cutting into the dead corner of his spear-wielding state, and then a burst of burning heat pierced through the centaur's armpit. Then before the heat turned into pain, Ariel had already pulled upward, and with a snort, a line of blood was pulled directly out of the centaur's thick chest, and the rushing blood instantly raised a rain of blood in the air!

Smiling slightly, Ariel raised his head forward, his eyes lit up with boiling golden flames, and the figures of a dozen rushing centaurs were also reflected, and the golden points of light flying like a whirlwind were tightly wrapped around the long sword, swinging forward, and the dazzling light almost shattered the dark night sky.

Bang!

A terrible explosion, roaring dozens of feet away.

The blade of light shattered in an instant, and the flames ignited into a strong and heavy image!

He can command any soldier, down to their every move, every position, and the use of the heart score is one of the things that the telemancer is best at, not to mention that the command method here is much simpler than the keyboard, there is no difference between the hands or the sensitivity of the equipment, and the movement of the mind is enough to add many important resources to the battle
