Chapter 950 Cheating
It is not surprising that a human appears in such a place. What is strange is that the dimensional creatures on the opposite side have no hostility towards him, and Zhou Wen vaguely feels that those dimensional creatures seem to be dominated by the old man.
"Old man, why did you come to a place like this alone?" Li Xuan shouted.
The old man ignored Li Xuan and said to Feng Qiuyan, "Since you know chess, play a game with me. If you win, you can leave alive."
"Old man, you are also a human being. Why do you have to make things difficult for your own people?" Li Xuan shouted again.
The old man sneered and said, "Whether you are human or not has nothing to do with me. Now that you are here, you only have two choices: win the game or die."
"How can this old guy be so inhumane?" Li Xuan muttered.
The old man continued, "The rat is the prime minister, the fox is the scholar..."
He explained to Feng Qiuyan the chess pieces representing various dimensional creatures, and then added, "I'm just handsome. The rules are a little different from the old chess. There's no limit on the number of moves. As long as you have the ability, you can control as many chess pieces as you want at the same time."
As he spoke, following the old man's command, the dimensional creatures began to move.
Unlike real chess, it's not just one person making a move. When the old man gave the order, many dimensional creatures moved at the same time.
Because those companion pets were not Feng Qiuyan's, Feng Qiuyan could only tell Zhou Wen, and then Zhou Wen controlled the movement of those companion pets, so the action was naturally slower.
But even so, Feng Qiuyan did not fall into a disadvantage. The chess pieces of both of them were constantly decreasing, and it seemed that they were evenly matched.
However, there is a hidden danger on Feng Qiuyan's side. All of the old man's chess pieces, except himself, can be sacrificed. But on Feng Qiuyan's side, there are four chess pieces that absolutely cannot be sacrificed. The further it goes, the greater this disadvantage will be.
Feng Qiuyan was not impatient at all. Seeing that the chess pieces were getting fewer and fewer, she remained calm as water, constantly communicating with Zhou Wen and commanding the remaining companion pets to fight.
When Zhou Wen accepted the order to move his companion pet, he had already gained a better understanding of the rules of Go and knew Feng Qiuyan's disadvantages.
Soon, the companion pets on both sides were almost all sacrificed. Apart from the four of them, Feng Qiuyan's side only had a Chi representing the horse chess piece left.
On the old man's side, besides this handsome guy himself, he also had a horse, a cannon and two chariots.
In terms of lineup, Feng Qiuyan's side is obviously at a disadvantage, and they cannot afford any sacrifices except for that Chi.
The old man said grimly, "It seems you need to decide which one to sacrifice next."
In addition to the old man, a horse, a cannon and two cars attacked Zhou Wen and his group.
The two chariots are the most powerful. If you stand in a straight line with them, you will be killed instantly. And the horse and the cannon are equally amazing.
The horse is in front of the cannon and behind it. If you stand in the straight line of the cannon, you will be hit by the cannon. If you stand on the side, you may be killed by the horse moving diagonally.
Zhou Wen's side was a bit miserable. Li Xuan represented the taxi, and although he also moved diagonally, he could only move one square at a time. No matter how fast Li Xuan was, he couldn't move faster because of the limitations of the dimensional field, and his killing distance was much shorter than that of a horse.
Zhou Wen was a small pawn who could only move one square at a time, and could only move forward but not backward. At most, he could move horizontally, and posed almost no threat to the old man.
Only Feng Qiuyan's car posed a greater threat to them, but because he could not take the initiative to stand in a straight line with the opponent, he never found an opportunity.
Soon, the Chi representing the horse was also killed, and the four people could no longer afford any sacrifices.
"It seems that your chess skills are just so-so. It's really disappointing." The old man had an absolute advantage and was not in a hurry to continue attacking.
Feng Qiuyan remained expressionless as he looked at the old man and said, "My chess skills are not as good as yours. If this were a real chess game, I would definitely lose. But this isn't a real chess game, so I will definitely win."
"Everything in the world is a chess piece. This is the real chess game," said the old man.
"Everything is a chess piece, but the chess pieces are different," said Feng Qiuyan.
"There's no difference. No matter how powerful a creature is, it's just a chess piece in this game and can be killed at will." said the old man.
"That may not be the case. Sometimes chess pieces can influence the outcome of the game." Feng Qiuyan turned to Zhou Wen and Li Xuan and said, "Coach, President, my ability is limited. I can only weaken the opponent to this extent. You all know the rules well. What follows is a battle, not a chess game. You are all combat experts, so you don't need my direction anymore."
Feng Qiuyan drew his sword and rushed forward. Zhou Wen and Li Xuan also rushed forward with Feng Qiuyan without saying a word.
Zhou Wen just didn't understand the rules before, but now he knows them very well. Moreover, Feng Qiuyan removed most of the chess pieces, making the complicated chess game simpler and reducing the possibility of being killed by mistake to a minimum.
Just like Feng Qiuyan said, now they only need to fight according to the rules and no longer need to think about how to play chess.
Aside from the fact that your body's movements are restricted to a certain extent and you need to be careful not to be killed instantly by your opponent, it is no different from a normal battle.
The three of them moved together. Feng Qiuyan was very fast, but Zhou Wen and Li Xuan were very slow, and could only move one square at a time.
A horse, a cannon and two chariots came to besiege the two of them, but they were able to circumvent them by using their positioning and various judgments, and were never killed.
Instead, Feng Qiuyan took advantage of the opportunity and quickly killed a horse.
The remaining two vehicles and one cannon could only move in a straight line, and the threat was suddenly much smaller.
So the three of them ignored the chess pieces and rushed directly towards the old man.
Just like Feng Qiuyan said, if it was a real chess game, he would have already lost, but this was not a real chess game.
In a real chess game, the chess pieces represented by Yaer and Li Xuan would have no chance of crossing the river, and even their range of movement would be limited. However, it is different in reality.
Seeing that Zhou Wen and the other two were supporting each other, the old man's face turned ugly as he couldn't kill any of the three remaining chess pieces.
"I can't forgive you... I can't forgive you... This is not the way to play chess..." Anger appeared on the old man's face.
"You have no chance of winning. Just admit defeat and let us pass." Feng Qiuyan said. The other party was a human being, and he was not willing to really kill the old man.
"Lose? There's no way I can lose. No one can defeat me on the chessboard. No one..." The old man said, and stood up and let out a long roar.
Many dimensional creatures rushed out and replenished his dead chess pieces. Zhou Wen and the other three were immediately in a desperate situation and fell into the attack range of many chess pieces.
"Oh my god, you're cheating!" Li Xuan yelled.
"So what? As long as I win, you all go to hell. I am the best at chess, and no one can beat me in chess." The old man shouted with a ferocious look.
