I, holding a long sword in my hand, only know one move

White pieces land on every other black board square, while black pieces land on every other square.

Fimto stretched out his hand to signal Cheng Rang, who was holding the black chess piece, and said: "In each game, the black piece goes first. After the first move, both parties must not think about the move for more than fifteen seconds, otherwise they will be declared a loser."

"Of course, it's okay to think about it as long as you want before taking the first step, even though it's not very useful."

Fimto explained to Cheng Rang which chess pieces each demon chess piece corresponds to, and then taught him the advanced rules of the game.

"Different from chess, the complexity of the game of Demon War Chess will change according to the strength of both parties. For example, if you are a beginner and I am a veteran, the chessboard will only stay within the limit of what you can understand. , will not expand.”

The current chessboard: a single board with 24 horizontal squares and 12 vertical squares.

Click, click...

The sound of falling pieces kept ringing on the chessboard, and it was inextricable that Cheng Rang was killed because of Fimto's deliberate retention.

"I see, I probably understand."

Snap!

After two hours of playing, Cheng Rang, who had fully understood the rules of war chess, dropped the chess pieces in his hand on the chessboard in front of him and said solemnly: "The foreign city position is completed, E4 is launched, and the battle area is expanded."

Click, click, click

The chessboard deformed, stretched, and expanded the moment Cheng Rang completed the move, and then more demon chess pieces automatically appeared on the expanded chessboard. The complexity of the battle was increasing exponentially!

From the beginning of the game, each side had nine chess pieces, to now, the two of them combined have more than forty pieces erected on the chessboard. All these changes also prove that Cheng Rang's strength is rapidly improving as the game progresses.

"Oh~ You are making rapid progress, young man." Fimto's tone was very satisfied, and then he also increased his offensive, standing a white chess piece of the bat devil in front of a black chess piece of Cheng Rang, and said A crisp click, "But this is just the beginning..."

"The three-horse position is completed, and the battle area is expanded."

Immediately after Cheng Rang expanded the battle area, Fimto also took the initiative to complete an expansion of the battle area. At this moment, the chessboard in front of the two people no longer only stayed on the main chessboard, but was divided into four corners again from the four corners of the chessboard. A round 8x8 square chessboard was slowly lifted up by the mechanical arm and stayed beside the two people. Several black and white chess pieces appeared on it.

Current chessboard: The main board has 48 horizontal and vertical squares, 4 sub-boards, and 8 vertical and horizontal squares.

"How about it? More and more chessboards are appearing in your mind. Isn't it interesting?" Fimto said to the young man in front of him without stopping.

Yes, every time the battle area is expanded, the expanded chess game will automatically appear in his mind, and force his mind to start turning. It is obvious that the four small chessboards that have just been expanded by three horses are not in his field of vision. However, Cheng Rang could still clearly understand the battle situation on the other four chessboards, and controlled these interconnected chess pieces from the main chessboard to play against Fimto in front of him.

"It's very interesting! It's exciting!" Cheng Rang raised the corner of his mouth, obviously enjoying it.

Snapped!

The black chess piece fell again, and the young man said solemnly: "I accept the Spirit Knight, 13 Gargoyles and 9 Familia Lords lined up in the castle formation."

"Oath..."

The complexity of the chessboard doubled in this moment!

"The devil phase is completed, give up the foreign city."

Boom——

The chessboard expands again!

The current chessboard: the main board has 128 horizontal and 64 vertical squares, 24 sub-boards, 16 horizontal and vertical squares, and 5 spherical boards with 33 squares each.

Feeling the young man's attack in front of him became fierce in an instant

Come on, Fimto even uttered a few exclamations: "Hey, hey, are you really a beginner?"

"Or...is he a genius at playing chess?" For the first time, he looked at the black-haired boy in front of him with admiration, who claimed to be a human. Then he continued to place the chess pieces leisurely and said:

"It's really good. You can let me let go and have fun with you..."

He finally sat upright in the chair, raised the chess piece in his hand, and landed it heavily in front of him with a crisp sound, and a wild and uninhibited smile began to appear at the corner of his mouth.

clatter!

"...Human!"

Chapter 52 The game between world and world (4)

This chess game between the ruler of another world and the demons of a human boy lasted for a full 8 hours... From the beginning, Fimto kept his hands on everything, and then Cheng Rang gradually mastered a lot of it in actual combat. After making progress, Fimto, who became serious, finally ended what could be called a long game with the last piece that landed on the board in front of Cheng Rang eight hours after the game started.

despair!

"CheckMate...."

Cheng Rang silently stared at his own chess piece that was instantly killed by Fimto. He raised his finger and pressed it on the black main chess piece that represented the devil, and gently pushed it...

"I can't help it, I still lost." The chess piece collided with the chessboard and made a soft crunching sound. Cheng Rang raised the corner of his mouth and sighed softly.

"Of course. If you, a beginner, want to beat me, you should practice for another ten years." Fimto stretched out, leaned back, and casually put his legs on the chessboard in front of him. , "But I'm quite satisfied with how it turned out. Well done, young man."

"You must have fully understood the rules and basic tactics of Demon War Chess, then..."

"One more round."

"...What did you say?" Fimto seemed not to hear clearly what the boy in front of him said.

"I said, let's play another round." Cheng Rang repeated.

At this level, he couldn't survive even an hour under Alul El. He had to become stronger in this limited time.

What's more, this different world game called Demon War Chess...

"Really interesting."

Fimto curled his lips, seeming to be thinking about something after hearing the words from Cheng Rang in front of him.

And Alikira, who was beside Cheng Rang at the beginning, felt very bored because the two of them only played chess and ignored her, and ran away to who knows where.

"Why are you so eager to improve the strength of the Demon War Chess?" Fimto's words hit the nail on the head.

"Because I have something I want to know," Cheng Rang didn't make any other excuses and planned to fool the fallen king Fimto in front of him, because lying in front of him would probably be seen through at a glance, "Alul El... Erga Fulgrush."

Cheng Rang said the name.

"Ah, it turns out it's him..." Fimto understood. His fingers on the handle of the chair were tapping rhythmically, and then he said, "Then you are really not afraid of death. juvenile."

"I said from the beginning that I am not afraid of death." Cheng Rang said.

"Well, yes, if it were you, maybe things would get very interesting!" Fimto raised the corner of his mouth.

Not afraid of death?

But that guy Alul El can make your life worse than death. He is really reckless, young man.

As a human being, he wants to please the old immortal who has studied the war chess between demons and monsters for thousands of years...

"But if you don't have enough awareness, I advise you not to go." Perhaps it was the hearty game just now that made Fimto feel very good. He persuaded the young man in front of him for the first time, "He is not Something you humans can try to challenge."

"Playing chess in the time corridor he controls, you may think that if you stay in it for ten thousand years, you will at least go crazy no matter what."

"Really? Is that all?" Cheng Rang raised his eyebrows slightly.

I saw him leaning back on the chair, his left hand subconsciously trying to figure out the snow-white scabbard on his waist, and he slowly said: "But if it's just about the length of time you spend studying something..."

"I think I won't lose to anyone!" he said.

As the black-haired boy in front of him tightened his grip on the long knife at his waist, an astonishing pressure that could even make Fimto feel suffocated slowly rose from his body.

The ultimate intention of the sword...

——To reach the state of transformation and reach the pinnacle.

For the first time in all eternity, Fimto was shocked by the aura that was theoretically impossible to appear on the human body.

He had only felt this kind of oppressive feeling that could make him feel suffocated twice in his long life.

The first time was when he faced the strongest man in a different world on a certain high martial plane, Laguoto Lance Fredmire, who was known to the world as the Eternal Swordsman of the Milled Continent.

At that time, Fimto was not the Fallen King. Laguo Otto was just standing in front of him, without even holding a weapon with his bare hands. He was able to use his breath to suppress all the resistance in his heart, making his whole body thirty-six thousand. Thousands of cold hairs stood on end, and a fatal alarm bell kept ringing in his heart - if he attacked him, he would be in danger in an instant.

Will die!

And the second time...

Looking at the black-haired man holding a long knife in front of him, Fimto's expression gradually stiffened. It wasn't until Cheng Rang took the initiative to let go of his left hand holding the long knife and restrained the suffocating pressure all over his body that he could relax. Speak slowly and speak:

"Are you really a human being...?"

"I went to the HL quarantine area a few days ago." He replied with a smile and a shrug.

The young man in front of him returned to his original appearance.

Fimto couldn't help but laugh. He put away his feet on the chessboard, sat up straight and said, "That's really great."

Snapped!

Fimto snapped his fingers again, and the complicated chessboard retracted and deformed as the mechanical arm was retracted. It returned to its original state, with nine black and white chess pieces on each side reappearing on the chessboard.

Arul El Eruga Furgrush... I may give you a big surprise soon!

The blond man thought of this, and his usual uninhibited smile appeared on the corner of his mouth under the mask.

"As you wish, then we will play another game." Fimto said, "This time I will hold the black chess piece."

...

Pata.... pata, pata....

The crisp sound of falling sounded again from the empty hall.

And almost every day after that, such a sound would be heard here.

.......

Another Tuesday, 8:30 in the morning.

Klaus and his team are already getting ready in the Lebra Hall, ready to greet and deal with the regular occurrence of Warcraft breeding events.

But this Tuesday morning, the streets of Hersharemzlot seemed unusually calm.

Stephen noticed this and found that there was still one less member among the members gathered around him today, so he turned to Zabu and asked: "Hey, do you know where Cheng went?"

"Who knows where that kid went? I haven't seen him for several days. Maybe he died somewhere." Zabu took out the cigar from his mouth and blew out a mouthful of white mist.

"He may not die even if you die, stinky monkey." Jane emerged from mid-air and stepped on Zabu's head.

"Damn you bitch, get down here!"

Zabu yelled and cursed, waving his hands randomly and grabbing at the top of his head, but they passed through Jane's ankles and could not catch her body at all. He rolled his eyes in anger.

"Have you been in contact with him lately, Jane?" Stephen asked, looking up.

"Well, yes, there is. He said that he has been addicted to playing chess recently and can't help himself. His tone seemed to be quite sure, saying that the Fallen King will definitely not cause trouble recently, so you can ignore him for the time being." Jane stepped steadily. Above Zabu's head, she replied calmly, letting the white-haired baboon at her feet continue to rage with impotence, but there was nothing she could do about it.

"Is that what he said? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"You didn't ask, and I've been busy looking for news about Angel Armor lately, so I can't spare the time to care about these things." Jane replied, and shrugged, "Although I haven't found any news about Angel Armor so far. A clue."

"ok, I get it...."

Stephen seemed to have a headache. He rubbed his temples and looked anxious.

Jane had jumped down from Zabu's head, and she was huddled behind Stephen with an indifferent expression, using him as a shield to isolate herself from Zabu.

"Everyone has been working hard for so long, but still haven't found a clue?"

The World of Warcraft breeding event has not come, so the focus of all Lebra officers now returns to the current angel armor event.

Stephen took the coffee from Gilbert next to him, took a sip, and put it back on the table.

"It seems that they are operating in a quite secretive place..."

Stephen said solemnly.

Chapter 53 The game between world and world (5)

"It's very possible that it's already lurking," Zabu said, sitting on the sofa, "because the video of the president is secretly available everywhere."

Everyone was sitting around the table. Except for Klaus who was still playing chess in front of the computer, everyone looked a little depressed.

Stephen sighed helplessly, lowered his head and said slowly: "There is no other way but to go deeper into the enemy camp."

After hearing Fantou's helpless words, Zabu slumped down and slid down from the back of the sofa, "How much deeper can we go..."

"If you go deeper, you will have to go to another world!"

Listening to what Zabu said, Stephen also knew it well.

They have tried their best to investigate all the channels that may reveal some clues. In various places in HL, whether openly or secretly, many members have even gone to the outside world to collect information, but now they still find nothing.
