Fairy's Chess Game

Chapter 273 Chess Talk
After a lively session, everyone in Fairy Tail returned home having fun.Fortunately, everyone still remembers that the game will continue tomorrow, and the players in the main game consciously went to rest.

The task of reporting the situation to the Senate naturally fell on Woz again.However, Woz has done such things before, so he is very familiar with the road.

Sure enough, after hearing the news from Woz, both the Senate and the Royal Government were extremely shocked, almost sounding the highest alarm!After all, there are too many people gathered in the royal capital at this time, and if any terrorist attack occurs, the damage will be extremely serious.

So that night, the alert level of the entire Crocas area was quietly raised by one level.

The next morning, on the way to the arena, Fairy Tail and everyone found that the number of patrolling guards in the city had increased a lot, and the atmosphere in the whole city became tense.

In order to avoid causing large-scale panic, the official explanation is to avoid causing trouble by wizards.Because in yesterday's game, a large number of guild teams were severely eliminated, and a considerable part of them were resentful, and they did cause some small accidents.For this reason, residents and tourists all over the city accepted the official explanation with peace of mind.

As for those guild organizations who have seen through the truth of the matter, with their strength, they will not care too much about such accidents.

The Damo Dou Yanwu Main Competition, the second day of the competition officially begins!
Now there are only [-] teams left. Although compared to previous main matches, the number of people is still far beyond the scale, but compared to yesterday's "all together", the situation in the arena is still much clearer.

"Today's competitive event is quite an interesting event!" The pumpkin referee announced excitedly, "Speaking of which, this is a game that everyone is familiar with. I believe almost everyone has played this game before, right?"

Following the referee's explanation, the venue of the arena began to deform, and the deformation mechanism driven by magic power activated a square platform with a side length of 50 meters in the wide venue; at the same time, another platform rose on the ground outside the platform. There are hundreds of devices similar to small turrets. These turrets seem to be magic self-propelled models. After activating the energy source, they flexibly rotate around and move around, as if they are warming up.

"Hey, hey, this posture, no matter how you look at it, it's not good!" The crowd of participating teams exploded.

"What kind of project is this! Is the person who made the question thinking about eliminating a large number of teams like yesterday!"

After a short period of activity, one hundred forts returned to their original positions and stood by silently.But the hearts of those contestants are even more uneasy.

"Today our competitive event is dodgeball!" The pumpkin referee announced loudly, and the words "dodgeball" popped up on the big broadcast screen directly above the arena.

"However, because this is a big magic fight performance, and the contestants are all powerful mages, so naturally it will not be an ordinary dodge ball, but a 'crazy' dodge ball!"

Before the words "Dodgeball" on the big screen, "crazy" exaggerated characters were strongly inserted, and then the entire name exploded, forming a sky full of gorgeous fireworks.

"...The rules are very simple. All the players have to do is to stay on the square platform. If they are hit by the ball and thrown out of the field, they will be out of the game. The same reason, just like dodging the ball normally, if they catch the ball, they will get an extra life. !” The pumpkin referee introduced the rules of the game.

At this time, Lian, a player of the Blue Sky Horse, raised her hand and asked, "Excuse me, can you explain what is meant by 'being hit by a ball'...?"

"It literally means it." The pumpkin referee said, "Originally we planned to add a certain amount of space-based magic to the ball to teleport the objects it touches to the outside of the field, but the space-based magic is really difficult, because it needs to be prepared. There are too many balls! So we adopted another solution, which is to strengthen the power of hitting the ball, so that it can gain absolute impact, and can knock people out with one hit!"

Following the pumpkin referee's explanation, a tumbler doll also appeared on the platform, and then a "turret" aimed at it and fired a high-speed ball!

The moment the ball touched the target, sharp-eyed people saw several turquoise magic circles popping up, and then the heavy tumbler was knocked out of the field!
"Strong binding technique, forced levitation technique, and powerful blowing effect... are all wind magic." Lian is an air mage herself, so she is very familiar with this type of magic, "Fortunately , can be regarded as the effect of using magic, I thought it was really going to be knocked into the air by violence."

"But in this way, it seems impossible to catch the ball, right?" someone questioned.

"Don't doubt the possibility of magic!" The pumpkin referee shook his head, "Although it is very difficult, the possibility of catching the ball still exists. Please play well!"

In this event, each team sends one person to play, and 30 people compete on the same stage.

When the contestants were walking on the stage one after another, Minerba suddenly turned her head and asked the pumpkin referee: "By the way, in this game, can other players be eliminated by 'other' methods?"

The people who were walking near her pulled away in an instant, and looked at this dangerous woman with great fear.

"Sorry, direct combat is prohibited in this game - only the ball can get you out," said the pumpkin referee.

"Oh? So, just use the ball? I understand..." Minerva licked her red lips and walked onto the stage in satisfaction.

"This...it seems to be exactly as they expected!" The pumpkin referee thought to himself, "Even if combat behavior is prohibited, this game will be very intense..."

In the auditorium, the Fairy Tail camp is also working hard to cheer for the two contestants Lucy and Jubian.But at this time, Woz is still not among them.

Mirajenny explained for Woz: "Because of yesterday's incident, Woz was temporarily recruited by the Senate to further investigate the city. It is a special commission."

"It feels like Woz has been doing similar work... Obviously we haven't gotten into any trouble recently." Natsu rubbed his chin thoughtfully.

Erza scolded: "Don't take it for granted that you caused trouble!"

Mirajane said with a smile: "Anyway, Woz's original plan was to maintain order, and the entrustment of the Senate is not a troublesome matter... Although it is really a pity that we can't watch the game together."

At this time, in the arena, the voice of the pumpkin referee resounded through the sky again.

"Now, the game begins!"

One hundred turrets were lit at the same time, and the powerful magic balls were fired at the crowd on the platform at a speed of five rounds per second!

……

"At this point in time, a new event has started. Sir, do you need to watch the live broadcast?"

On the endless sea, there are two figures speeding forward on the waves.

The chess player looked at the robot beside him: "Your stand-in has so many messy functions. Just be quiet now, it's important to get down to business first."

"However, it's a waste of time to just fly over like this." Val said, he has always hated time-wasting behaviors, "Your Excellency, you can open the portal directly, why bother to stop halfway and rely on manpower keep going?"

"If you really do that, will you be regarded as an enemy attack? I'm here to seek cooperation, not to find fault."

Although Val was complaining about the inefficiency of their journey, it didn't take long before they saw the outline of an island appearing on the sea level; that was the destination of their trip - Galakel Island, which is currently the headquarters of the Second Special Magical Battalion station.Because it belongs to the same world, this is also the area where the Transcendents are currently most concentrated.

This time the chess players came to discuss, or the object of the alliance is this paramilitary group under the leadership of Gambling King.The target is naturally the current common enemy of both sides - the Alvarez Empire.

For a long period of time, due to various reasons, the Balance Organization and the Second Special Sorcerer Battalion fought small-scale high-quality wars with the Alvarez Empire.It's just that both sides are fighting on their own, and there is not much communication.

This time, because of the opening of the Great Demon Fighting Martial Arts, all the main chess pieces of the Tianping organization will gather in Krokas once, so this has caused the combat power in the front line to fall into an extremely empty state.It is impossible for the combat power below the chess pieces to defeat the imperial army and the twelve shields of the country.

So in this case, chess players will come to sit on the front line in person.

This is also one of the meanings of chess players and Woz saying that "the game becomes more difficult".

For a chess player, it is obviously impossible to guard the entire sea area by himself, so naturally, he thought of his own peer from the world of Edras.

The Second Special Magic Brigade is a special organization group, because they are a team formed by Gambit who gathered the remnants of the original Special Magic Brigade as the backbone, so they are actually an army at heart, and they are all magic guides Soldiers!

In particular, the "human body magic mosaic technology" mastered by Gambit and the others has become a top-notch magic power development technology after the transformation of Aslant's world.Therefore, the mages of the second special magic brigade generally have combat effectiveness far above the standard!
It is precisely because this legion is so powerful that it even has the ability to shake the authority of the kingdom!In order to avoid suspicion, Gambit moved its headquarters to this small island in the sea, which strictly speaking does not belong to any country.

At this time, after half a year of rule, Garakel Island has become a mini military country led by Gambit.Although the main business on the island is still the same port logistics and tourism service industry as before, the patrol guards everywhere and the harmonious and peaceful atmosphere have changed dramatically from half a year ago.

As expected, when the chess players approached the island, a large number of guards blocked the coastline as a "welcome", and soon the real members of the magic guide team arrived, and they were qualified to officially invite the chess players to the island as guests.

The group didn't go too far, because Gambit himself was on the beach on the coast.

At this moment, Gambit was still wearing that gorgeous snow-white gown that exploded—this was directly woven by him through his own magic.After coming to the Aslant world with infinite magic power, he can keep this suit at any time.

"You really like this outfit!" Chess player couldn't help complaining first, "Every time I see you dressed like this, won't you get tired of it?"

Gambit immediately retorted: "I'm just going out formally to welcome you! Don't be picky!"

At this time, Zhang Xuqian, who was behind Gambit, came up, moved out a huge table from some kind of space magic equipment, and quickly set up the open-air conference room with matching chairs.

Chess players are not polite, just sit down.

"Then, let's have a long-lost game first." The King of Gambling sat down at the other end and said enthusiastically.

Zhang Xuqian has always been dressed as a beautiful dealer, and now she has started to shuffle the cards skillfully, leaving no room for chess players to refuse.

"..." The chess player was really speechless, "Do you have to play like this? If you have the ability, change it to chess! I will accompany you to the end of any chess game!"

Gambit shrugged and said, "Playing chess? I'm not interested in a game where there are no surprises."

"Hmph, I really hate this kind of tricks that rely on luck and cheating!" Chess players never tolerate others insulting their hobbies, and immediately retorted.

"I can't deny that luck and some skills are indeed an indispensable part of the game." The King of Gamblers admitted generously, "However, because of this, the game will be more thrilling and exciting, isn't it? Come on, in my place Follow my rules and play my game! When I visit your balance organization, you can let me play chess with you."

While speaking, Zhang Xuqian had already dealt the cards.

The chess player had no choice but to reach out and hold his own card, and started the game with the king of cards.

"So... now I can tell you, what is it that made you, a big man, come to this small place like me?" The King of Gambling didn't rush to look at his cards, but looked at the other party, and asked first. road.
