I just covet their strength

Chapter 15 It’s a pity that I was born in the era of me
The operational style of play with [Casting Embryo] as the core is a very unpopular routine in [Endless War Chess]. Because it is too easy to counter, it can only be used as a surprise weapon. Once it is used, the outcome will be victory or defeat. hand.

But if both of them adopt the same routine of late-stage operation flow, then the situation will be very subtle.

"I didn't expect that Yuanxi Palace would also like to hide such a skill."

Westhead sighed, continued his moves, and began to slowly arrange his position.

"It's a rare and exciting match, so it's only interesting if we play it slowly. But it looks like this will be a protracted battle."

Luetan also smiled slightly, taking the position as leisurely as Westhead.

Both sides have decks with [Forging Embryo] as the core, so they are destined to be unable to produce anything in the early stage. It all depends on the operational battle in the later stage, so they both started playing chess in a formulaic manner.

During this period, Lord Yuanxi also talked about business:
"Before coming to the imperial capital, I heard some rumors about Lord Qinghui. I thought you had completely given up on yourself, but now it seems that you might just be a playboy. In that case, I heard that the Qinghui family is also preparing to recover their homeland in the imperial capital, and Yuanxi County is willing to provide financial support."

Westhead hummed, played chess without raising his head, and said calmly: "Because the reconstruction of the Qinghui Territory is also closely related to the Yuanxi Territory. If the Qinghui Territory does not block the demonic tide, the next wave of turbulent chaos may be It will impact the Yuanxi Territory."

After his intention was pointed out, Luyetan admitted, "That's right. Yuanxi Territory needs a barrier. If Qinghui Territory can be successfully rebuilt, that's what we want to see. Oh, my [Polaris Camp] is here."

"I temporarily buried a secret card, so Yuan Xigong came all the way to see me just to express your great kindness?"

Luetan shook her head and said with a smile:

"Lord Qinghui's words were unexpectedly harsh. How could I do such a terrible thing? But since I want to fund the reconstruction of Qinghui Territory, I should know who the money will be spent on and whether it is worth it."

"So what is Yuanxi Palace's evaluation?"

Westhead began to place sentry towers and fire positions on the chessboard one after another. [Forging Embryo] also evolved into [Star Gate], and began to randomly select cards for summoning.

"You chose Star Gate? That's a really confident move. Then I'll choose War Workshop. How can one make an evaluation and impression of a person in such a short time? But yesterday, His Royal Highness the Regent complained to me. I have to say that Lord Qinghui is too close to that Sinful Blood Dragon Girl."

Luetan's green-white slender fingers twisted the hair beside her pointed ears:
"Although these words are a bit sowing discord from my point of view, His Highness the Regent had originally planned to help the Qinghui Territory to rebuild, but because of your unwiseness, the Regent has begun to reconsider helping the Qinghui Territory to rebuild. .”

"Isn't that just right?"

Westhead did not show any weakness at all because of the implicit threat in Louetan's words. Instead, he smiled and said:
"Even if there is no assistance, I will still recover Qinghui Territory. This is my duty. No, it would be better if there is no assistance. I don't want to owe anyone a favor."

"So, you are not planning to sever contact with the fourth princess? Even if you know that this will lead to the empire's abandonment and the divine ancestor's disgust?"

Westhead said without hesitation: "Of course, even if my title of [Prosperity Branch] is deprived of me, my answer will not change."

The gold content of T0 level talent is simply not comparable to some reputation or wealth.

Hesitating for a second is a betrayal of strength!
Luetan looked deeply at Westhead's determined face for a long time.

Immediately they clapped, but it was hard to tell whether it was appreciation or criticism:
"It's a very courageous decision, no matter what your reasons are. Well, my operation is basically over. I will start the ritual [Thousand Suns and Ten Thousand Stars] to change the attributes of the field and send two groups of [High Tower Magic Swordsmen] and [Sky Griffins] to advance three squares."

Westhead also immediately threw himself into the chess game:
"【Endless Tremor】, freeze your front row of 【Constructed Golems】, then I will move the 【Floating Fleet】 back two squares, and 【Thundercloud】 will cover the field." "Deploy 【Radiant Guards】 on the flanks of the 【War Workshop】, and take a defensive stance."

"Oh, that's right, but Yuanxi Palace, you can't just defend the [War Workshop] blindly. If the war beasts don't break the formation first, how can they resist my army? You're just sitting there waiting to die. [Star Guide], start chanting the destruction spell to the [War Workshop]! Don't think about hiding in the position, come out."

"Tsk, this is such a tricky target. Does Lord Qinghui have the ability to read minds? My thoughts were completely guessed."

"No, it's just practice makes perfect, muscle memory."

"."

As Lujetan said, this is indeed a constant battle.

The two of them were going back and forth on the chessboard, trying their best to make moves, but they did not advance the battle until the deck was exhausted.

According to the rules of the game, new decks must be added at this time, and the board must be expanded to accommodate the battle.

The deck was used one after another, the chessboard was expanded again and again, and high-level chess pieces that were difficult to appear in regular games were also used one after another.

It was not until several hours of intense fighting that Westhead made the decisive blow.

"【Taixu Storm Lord】activates the skill, extracts half of the value of all chess pieces on the field, and then attacks the base. The dice rolls 18 points, and the attack is effectively over, Yuanxi Palace."

"It was a very satisfying duel and I lost."

Watching the chessboard projection in front of him slowly disappear, the elegant [Prosperity Branch] stretched out with satisfaction and said:
"This is really the best game of Endless War chess I have ever played. You are really incredibly strong."

Standing up, Luetan adjusted her clothes, took the tricorn hat with white feathers from the maid on the side, put it on, lowered the brim and said:

"I accept the bet and the prosthetic limb will be made as quickly as possible. Rozana, I leave this matter to you."

The half-elf maid immediately responded: "Yes, Yuanxi Palace."

"I am very satisfied with this game. You can probably be called one of the strongest chess players in modern times. It's a pity that you were born in my era."

Westhead stood up to bid farewell to Luetan. Although the other person's words and deeds seemed to be making fun of a poor relative, he could just ignore this disrespect because he could earn a set of top-notch prosthetics for free.

If he were to set up the arena, it would probably take some time to raise the funds.

".You are really quite confident."

Luetan was stunned when she heard this, and then winked playfully at Westhead:
"I just hope you can continue to be so interesting and don't die, Mr. Qinghui."
