Chapter 1905 - 845: Bare-handed Chess Playing, An Easy Win!
"FUCK! FUCK!"
Melanie cursed a few times. If she had known this would happen, she would have stayed with Lin Baici.
At least Lin Baici would protect his companions, unlike the cold-blooded Kreiser.
"I’m willing to pay any price!"
Melanie finally recognized the situation and started negotiating, realizing that a few pleas wouldn’t get her anywhere: "You’re going to save those people anyway, right? Then take me along!"
Since Gu Qingqiu could win, there was no way he’d let those people from Jiuzhou die.
"Not interested!"
Gu Qingqiu refused.
"Hey, pretty lady!"
Kreiser called out to Gu Qingqiu, pulling out a key and tossing it to her.
"This has a Divine Grace called Speed and Passion. Once activated, it can increase your running speed, allowing you to complete half a marathon at a sprinting pace!"
"Now, it is yours!"
Kreiser didn’t need to say the rest. Everyone understood that in exchange, Gu Qingqiu was supposed to help Kreiser pass this level.
Kreiser had a way too, but not as assured as Gu Qingqiu’s.
For such wealthy tycoons, using an unnecessary Divine Grace to trade for a ’pass’ was a sure win, especially since there was a big boss ahead, and they couldn’t afford to waste too many trump cards here.
"You’re asking the wrong person!"
Gu Qingqiu threw the car key back: "This kind of thing needs my captain’s decision!"
Gu Qingqiu no longer referred to him as a schoolmate, switching to the more formal ’captain’.
This title also showed Gu Qingqiu’s respect and acknowledgment of Lin Baici.
"Thank you!"
Kreiser nodded towards Gu Qingqiu, then looked at Lin Baici: "God Lin, what do you think?"
"Can we win?"
Lin Baici first asked Gu Qingqiu.
Gu Qingqiu took a sip of his drink, made an OK gesture with his right hand, looking very calm and collected.
"Deal!"
In fact, Lin Baici needed to keep Kreiser for the final boss. If that was a God, having an extra Dragon Level to share the load was crucial.
As for the others?
All just small fry, probably not of much use.
Clap clap clap!
The little girl impatiently slapped the chessboard hard a few times: "Are you done yet?"
"I’ll play another game with you. If you win, you can do whatever you want with us. If I win, you must tell me all the secrets of this castle’s owner!"
"No way!"
The little girl immediately refused: "If you win, I’ll let these people go!"
"Then I refuse, and the fact that you lost to me will be a black mark on your history forever!"
Gu Qingqiu tried to provoke.
The little girl’s face immediately fell.
Even monsters don’t like to ’lose’.
"If you’re so unsure, why play chess?"
Gu Qingqiu’s right index finger pressed down on the ’king’, pushing the piece around: "Is bullying small fry fun?"
"..."
The little girl was at a loss for words.
"My teacher said if I became a professional chess player, I could win championships. Since then, I haven’t touched Go."
Gu Qingqiu smiled: "By the way, my favorite is Go!"
"Why?"
The little girl was curious.
"Because only those top professional players with the highest ranks can beat me!"
Gu Qingqiu caressed the chess piece: "Bullying small fry offers no thrill, and playing against those dozen or so people every year gets boring!"
"And it seems to cause hair loss!"
"Besides, the world is so big, there are many interesting things!"
Gu Qingqiu said as he glanced at Lin Baici.
Like writing my ’Lin Schoolmate Observation Diary’.
"Years later, when I played chess again, I still maintained my winning streak!"
Gu Qingqiu stood up: "Thank you, little sister!"
The little girl, already shaken by Gu Qingqiu’s words and wanting to play another game to redeem herself, was completely disarmed by his last remark.
"I’m a chess player, not a little sister!"
The little girl felt Gu Qingqiu disrespected her: "Come on, let’s play!"
"And the stakes?"
Gu Qingqiu pressed further.
"..."
The little girl hesitated.
"I don’t play chess with cowards."
Gu Qingqiu smirked.
"I agree!"
The little girl gritted her teeth, unable to stand it: "When I win, I’ll turn you into a chess piece!"
Gu Qingqiu picked up two chess pieces, a knight and a rook, and placed them beside the chessboard.
"Hiss!"
Wu Hongfu and his group shuddered, their scalp tingling!
Should I describe this girl as confident or arrogant?
Remember, this is a life-and-death situation!
If you lose, you die.
Melanie is high in appearance, great in shape, very popular among men, but today she hit a wall in front of Lin Baici.
Now, she suddenly understands why Lin Longyi doesn’t care about herself anymore.
With such a companion who is equally beautiful and wise, she doesn’t even count as a fart.
Gu Qingqiu’s actions directly made the little girl bristle.
"I don’t need you to handicap me!"
The little girl roared, "Let’s have a fair and square duel!"
"Alright then!"
Gu Qingqiu was acting; she never intended to handicap.
The match resumes.
Because there was no handicap and the little girl played very seriously, thinking long and hard, the game progressed much slower than the previous one.
Gu Qingqiu appeared to be strolling leisurely, but she was actually lulling the little girl, playing psychological games, while her mind was racing, thinking of all possibilities.
Everyone watched in silence.
Every time Gu Qingqiu’s piece was captured, they would instantly become nervous, afraid she might be eliminated.
After all, this girl from Jiuzhou is the hope of the entire village.
An hour and a half later, the prim little girl suddenly leaned back and lay on the ground.
"I lost!"
The little girl closed her eyes.
"Wow, awesome!"
Wu Hongfu wanted to applaud, but afraid of angering the little girl, he gave two thumbs up instead.
Others were also very excited.
"You played really well!"
Gu Qingqiu looked at the endgame and praised sincerely, "You’ve rekindled my interest in Go again!"
It’s not that chess isn’t fun, it’s that Go is more interesting.
On the board, surrounding and capturing the opponent’s large Dragon is the most exhilarating thing!
Hearing this, the little girl’s mouth cracked into a smile, and then her entire being burst into firefly-like spots of light and vanished.
Around them, the soldiers clad in black and white armor transformed into a beam of light, shooting towards the board like meteors.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
They arranged themselves neatly on the chessboard.
Everyone who saw this scene immediately perked up.
"Has this pollution been purified?"
"The monsters are gone, so it probably has!"
"You’re amazing, beautiful lady!"
Everyone was very excited, showering Gu Qingqiu with all sorts of compliments.
Especially those Southeast Asians, who were not good at chess and figured help wouldn’t come even if they asked for it, had almost lost hope. Unexpectedly, fortune turned in their favor.
What a pity!
It would have been great if this girl wasn’t Lin Baici’s teammate!
Then everyone would have a new powerful ally to cling to.
And a beautiful one at that!
Wait!
They saw Gu Qingqiu walk over to Lin Baici and speak intimately to him, and they suddenly realized that she is a person from Jiuzhou too.
Damn it!
Such a vast land with abundant resources, geniuses just keep popping up!
"I still wanted to ask the little girl for some information!"
Gu Qingqiu hadn’t expected the little girl to be gone.
[Wise Chessboard: Playing with this chessboard can enhance intelligence and train the brain!]
[Each time you use this chessboard and defeat ten thousand people, you have a certain chance of having an epiphany, with some kind of black technology emerging in your mind!]
[The stronger your opponent, the more valuable the black technology from the epiphany!]
Eater God comments.
"What’s this?"
Lin Baici raised an eyebrow, "Black technology? As in the kind that doesn’t exist on Blue Star?"
Eater God didn’t respond.
If that’s the case, the value of this chessboard is enormous, it can boost national strength, but playing chess is troublesome!
Ten thousand people?
Wouldn’t that take ages?
[Please use cautiously, some black technologies have a certain chance of driving people mad!]
Eater God adds.
"God Lin, what do we do next? Just give the word!"
Wu Hongfu smiled placatingly, "I’ll lead the charge!"
"Put the chessboard away, it’s time to contact Red Medicine and the others!"
Even knowing the immense value of this chessboard, Gu Qingqiu would be indifferent, "Such a pity that time is too tight, otherwise, we could study how to bring out that little girl!"
"That’s your trophy!"
Lin Baici didn’t move.
Gu Qingqiu rolled her eyes, her expression one of exasperation at how reserved he was.
Just as she was about to pack up the chessboard, the pieces on it began to move rapidly.
