Global Games: Old Chess Players

Chapter 129 "Sequential events? Never heard of it."

"bite."

A message alert sounds.

It was the early morning of January 16. Anson Deer opened his eyes and looked at the information bubble popping up in the upper right corner of his sight.

【Yuri:Happy birthday.】

Four words, no more information, the usual style of Icelandic girls.

Ansonlu got up from the bed, stretched out his fingers in a daze, typed a line of words on the panel, and clicked send.

[Anson Deer: This Icelandic classmate, how did you know that today is my birthday? 】

Yuri did not reply.

Maybe he fell asleep again after sending the message, or maybe he started to get busy.

Ansonlu opened the friend panel and took a look at the status of the union members in the list.

Crow is conducting a survival dungeon; Asuka is conducting a confrontation dungeon; Yuri is conducting a three-ring structured dungeon; Chu Qimo is conducting a cooperative challenge dungeon.

Among them, when entering survival dungeons and confrontation dungeons, players are strictly prohibited from using the "Friends Panel".

Because doing so will most likely violate the rules of copying.

As for the three-ring dungeon, it is a similar mode to the previous [Return to Titanic] dungeon - some links disable the friend panel, and some links do not need to limit the "friend panel".

"Asleep?"

Ansenlu stared at Yuri's status in the friends panel, then muttered and closed the chat panel.

"Boom——"

"Dong dong——"

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

"Coming."

Ansonlu closed the friend panel, jumped out of bed with a plop, walked closer in two or three steps, and opened the door.

It's three faces.

Julius is in front, Cosimo, and Jindai Ruri is behind.

Their attire is very fixed: Yuliu likes to wear a black windbreaker; Cosimo wears white short-sleeves and shorts; and Jindai Ruri wears a light pink kimono.

Yuliu said calmly: "These two people came to you and said they had something to discuss."

"Hey, little chess player."

Jindai Ruri smiled and waved her fan.

"cut."

Cosimo's face was full of displeasure and he curled his lips.

Ansenlu suspected that these two people had evil intentions, so he asked helplessly: "What do you two want to do?"

To be honest, it was not good to queue up a dungeon with anyone, but to queue up the two people with whom he had the worst impression in the law enforcement team.

"We were exploring the city this morning and encountered a sequence of events." Kamishiro Ruri covered her mouth with a fan and briefly introduced her purpose:

"However, this sequence of events requires four people to carry out, so..."

What is a sequence of events?

I've never heard of it.

Ansonlu looked puzzled, "Ah... sequence of events?"

"Huh?" Cosimo was shocked, "You must be number one in the world after all. How come you haven't even heard of the Sequence Event?"

Anson Deer shrugged, "Oh, I am number one in the world, does it have anything to do with me not having heard of it?"

"Sequence events are events that can only be triggered by players in special sequences. Each special sequence has a probability of generating a corresponding sequence event when entering a cooperative challenge dungeon or a three-ring dungeon."

"Oh..." Ansonlu suddenly realized, "That's it."

Think about it this way, he also triggered a sequence of events - when he was on the Titanic, he played a game of chess with the ghost, and got "Floating Fish in the Tank" and "Ice Ocean Chess Board" from the ghost.

”.

Forget about the three-ring copy...

Ansenlu really didn't expect that such events would also exist in cooperative challenge dungeons. In the past, he was just fishing and sleeping in addition to fighting monsters, which was a waste of time for exploration.

However, since the generation of sequence events is probabilistic, that is to say - the sequence events generated in Tokyo may be from "Cyber ​​Strike", it may be from "Kamidai Sakura Sword", or it may be from "

Devouring Arm", or "Old Chess Players".

Anson Deer thoughtfully said: "Do you know whose sequence of events it is?"

"Only the devil knows, okay?" Cosimo said impatiently.

Anson Deer asked again: "What about the location of the incident?"

"Tokyo's underground, a subway on the Ginza Line." Kamishiro Ruri said with a smile.

"Oh, if you look at it this way..." Ansenlu said: "It is most likely an event in the sequence of 'Cyber ​​Attack'. On the subway, if you think about it, it is all related to the sequence of classmate Cosimo."

When he said this, with an expression on his face that said, "I'll go with you if you ask me," he looked at Cosimo faintly.

Cosimo's eyes twitched and he said unhappily: "Your analysis is too far-fetched! Why is the subway related to cyberspace? So, can't it also be associated with the 'Devouring Arm'?!"

"Ah, I'm more looking forward to the sequence event of the 'Peerless Sakura Sword'." Kamishiro Ruri covered her mouth and smiled, "But no matter whose sequence event it is, you can get rewards as long as you participate."

"Okay, let's go then." Ansonlu looked at his phone, "But... is it too late? Something strange happened at noon."

Yuriu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "There will be a monster at 12 noon. It is now 6 o'clock, and there are still 6 hours left, which should be enough for us to solve this incident."

"Hmph..." Cosimo snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "If it weren't for the fact that the corresponding sequence player must be present to trigger the sequence event, otherwise, there is no way I would ask you to cooperate."

"Idiot." Jindai Liuli suddenly cursed.

"Oh?" Ansonlu raised his eyebrows, smiled and said, "This means that this sequence of events belongs to the 'Old Chess Players' or the 'Devouring Arm'. It seems that the initiative is in our hands."

"Who, who said that!" Cosimo realized later.

"You."

"Hey..." Kamishiro Ruri held her forehead, "That's why I don't want to queue up a dungeon with a brat."

"You can continue to compete if you want, but it's getting late. I suggest you talk on the road."

Yuliu finished his words and walked to the elevator first.

Anson put his hands in his pockets and followed Yuliu's back silently, as if he no longer wanted to argue with Cosimo.

"Be careful when you speak next time." Kamishiro Ruri tapped Cosimo's shoulder with a fan and taught him this lesson: "Don't always reveal information that is not good for you. If you can't do that, speak less."

"Please, are you my mother?"

Cosimo stood up unhappily and walked towards the elevator.

"The captain wants me to take more care of you. After all, you are his younger brother."

"Okay, I will be more careful when I speak next time," Cosimo paused and suddenly said: "By the way, do you think... that guy is acting weird today?" He added another sentence after saying this.

: "Although, just be as cheap as usual."

Jindai Ruri glanced at Ansenlu's back.

"Brother the chess player?"

"Um."

Kamishiro Ruri put away her fan, her beautiful eyes thoughtful, "I don't know, maybe something sad happened."

Half an hour later, Tokyo Metro, Ginza Line.

The incandescent lights on the dome emitted a cold light, covering the empty seats, ticket counters, and platforms.

At this time, a silver-white train was parked on the subway track. As four figures approached, a huge panel was displayed on the side of the train, with eye-catching red text on it.

[Special Event Name: Subway Crisis]

[Special event requirements: 4 players (must include a specific player)]

[Special event difficulty: higher.]

[Special event reward: unknown.]

[Event failure cost: unknown.]

[Current number of participants: 0/4]

"Why are there so many unknowns..." Ansonlu glanced at the panel, hesitated for half a second, then glanced back at the three of them, "How about we forget it?"

Mainly, judging from the name, this sequence of events shouldn't be that simple.

The cost of failure is still unknown, and it is not certain whether anyone will die.

"Forget it? The reward is very high!" Cosimo was shocked.

"If this sequence of events has nothing to do with me, you will say: 'Oh, then you can leave, I will just find another player.'" Ansonlu raised his eyebrows and said calmly:

"It seems that this is the sequence of events of the 'Old Chess Players'."

Cosimo was stunned for a moment, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he was suddenly speechless.

"Yes, this is your sequence of events, what a pity it would be to miss it?" Jindai Ruri hurriedly smoothed things over.

"I'm not in the mood, why don't I come back tomorrow?" Ansonlu said, "Besides, there are so many unknowns, wouldn't it be very troublesome if someone died in this incident."

Seeing that Ansonlu was so unmotivated, Yuliu also said: "Logically speaking... the rewards for sequence events are generally much richer than ordinary special events."

"Okay, let's go then."

Anson Deer stretched out his hand and touched the surface of the train, and the numbers on the panel changed.

[Current number of participants: 1/4]

Seeing that he was so decisive, Yuliu, Cosimo and Kamishiro Ruri naturally didn't hesitate much and stretched out their hands to touch the surface of the train.

[Current number of participants: 4/4]

The next second, the door of carriage No. 12 opened.

The inside of the subway car was just as empty as the outside. The cold light blue light shrouded the car, making things inside the car seem lonely and strange.

The structure of Tokyo's subway carriages is similar to that of Tokyo's subway carriages.

As for the difference in the structure of the two carriages - the seats in Tokyo's carriages are made of soft sofa texture, and there are heaters in winter. Secondly, there are a row of shelves in the subway for passengers to put their bags.

In addition, there are many lifting rings in the carriage, and the handles are of different heights, in order to facilitate the use of people of different heights and take care of the elderly, young and disabled, etc.

Anson Deer took the lead and stepped into the subway with an expressionless face.

The other three people quickly stepped into the subway, and then the subway doors closed.

[Sequence of events - "Subway Crisis" officially begins. 】

[Start introducing event rules.]

[Rule 1: 55 citizens will be introduced from the different space in Tokyo as ‘passengers’ for this event. 】

[Rule 2: The old chess player’ will get the right to control some passengers in the carriage and three other players. 】

[Rule 3: During the event, all players will not be able to release any skills, and the luggage space will be cleared, but there will be one more 'special item' in the luggage of the three players. 】

[Rule 4: The old chess player himself will not be killed, and at the same time, he cannot touch anything in the subway. 】

[Rule 5: The monster...is about to appear.]

[Event completion conditions: At least 2 players and 20 citizens must survive successfully in the subway (if the event is completed, the first 30 dead citizens will be resurrected, and all dead players will also be resurrected). 】

[The cost of event failure: All players and citizens who die in the subway will truly die.]

Ansenlu was stunned for two seconds.

When he turned his head, Cosimo, Iulius, and Kamishiro Ruri were unable to move or even speak, but they still had expressions on their faces, and they seemed to be conscious.

However, until the end of the incident, they will all become Anson Deer's pawns.
