Global Games: Old Chess Players

Chapter 157 Hidden Copy—Tower of Babylon

During the three days from January 22 to January 24, Ansonlu had nothing to do. He bought a game console and a bunch of genuine discs, and stayed in his apartment playing various games that he could not afford before.

On this day, January 25th, something shocking happened in the world.

The national team of the Republic of Iraq disclosed a piece of information that can be called "magic" - they discovered a giant tower that did not exist in a barren desert in Iraq.

The location of this dark giant tower happens to be the ruins of the ancient Babylonian Tower of Babel.

In the "Bible, Old and New Testaments", the story of the "Tower of Babel" is recorded - at that time, human beings hoped to have a high tower that could lead to heaven, so they united to build the 'Tower of Babel'; in order to prevent human plans

, God made human beings speak different languages ​​so that human beings could not communicate with each other. Therefore, the plan failed, and human beings have gone their separate ways since then.

However, if we go to Iraq today in 2026, Christian believers will probably be so stunned that they cannot open their mouths, kneel on the ground in fear, and stare tremblingly at this blasphemous tower reaching the sky.

This is indeed the case. The Tower of Babylon, which should have collapsed two thousand years ago, has reappeared in this world.

Moreover, its magnificence is still the same as before, and just one look at it is enough to give people a shocking feeling as if they are facing the gods directly.

"So, what is the Tower of Babel for?" Ansenlu asked.

"It's not clear yet, but the law enforcement team has sent people to investigate, and the results may be made public after a while." Qi Yuanliu replied calmly.

Asuka Uesugi folded the paper crane and said casually: "I heard that it may lead to a hidden dungeon or activate a boss challenge location."

"Where did you hear that?" Ansonlu looked at her with disdain.

"Online."

"Go away, you can believe what you say on the Internet."

“Can’t you trust what’s on the Internet?”

Ansenlu ignored Asuka and looked at Urushihara: "No, Crow, you can't even ask with your connections?"

Qi Yuanlu turned over the Bible with his fingertips and said calmly: "The law enforcement team is very strict in guarding the area. They also posted people to guard the outside of the Tower of Babel to prevent any unrelated persons from approaching."

"Then there is nothing we can do. Let's just wait for the news from Lorenzo. If he remains silent, it means that there is no danger in the emergence of this ruins, and all the benefits it deserves have been taken away by the law enforcement team." Anson Deer helped him up.

He lowered his chin and looked at the phone.

"Indeed, I don't think there's anything to worry about." Chu Qimo took a sip of tea, "If there are indeed any challenging tasks hidden in that ruins, then they will definitely ask the president for help; on the contrary, if there are just some easy tasks in the Tower of Babel,

The law enforcement team cannot disclose the rewards obtained to avoid unnecessary trouble."

"I have to say, you still know the law enforcement team." Urushihara Ritsu couldn't help laughing.

Ansenlu shrugged and said teasingly: "It's not that bad. For example, if there are any final-level chess types hidden in the Tower of Babel, they won't be able to use them. What should be given to me will still be given to me."

"Oh, how can the people in the law enforcement team be so generous?" Asuka said sarcastically.

"Please, the world is about to be fucking destroyed, how can they still have time to scheming with us? Lorenzo is not a fool, haven't you noticed that he has been showing favor to me recently?" Anson said.

" Mr. Lu is right, Lorenzo is also a sensible person. It will be difficult to solve the World Boss in half a year just relying on the strength of the law enforcement team and the national team." Urushi Yuan Ritsu chuckled, "No matter it is

The law enforcement team, the national team, or our beacon of hell, as long as we are human beings, in the face of this disaster that threatens the whole world, there is no doubt that we are a community with a shared future."

"Anyway, when we need to exchange interests, the law enforcement team will come to us." Chu Qimo said lightly: "Now, we can't get close to the Babel Tower, after all, their people are in charge of it.

, if you approach rashly, it is equivalent to breaking up with the law enforcement team. Therefore, I suggest that you stop this meaningless quarrel."

"Did you hear that?"

"Did you hear that?"

Anson turned his head, and Asuka turned her head at the same time. The two looked at each other fiercely, and their words were almost exactly the same.

"Teacher Chu is obviously talking about you."

"Teacher Chu is talking about you."

The two seemed to be facing each other on the radio again, glaring at each other and looking away with a cold snort.

Chu Qimo took a sip of tea and Qi Yuanlu turned the pages of the book.

The two have become accustomed to this kind of noisy interaction. To stay in this union, you must first learn to tolerate the constant bickering between Anson and Asuka, otherwise your ears will never reach a state of relief.

"Oh." Ansonlu suddenly said, "Is it true?"

"What's the matter, Mr. Lu?"

"Lorenzo will send me a message now." Anson Deer yawned and clicked on Lorenzo's message bubble, "This big brother reports messages pretty quickly. Let me see what he said.

"

[Lorenzo: Anson Deer, I believe you have also heard of the Tower of Babel incident in the Republic of Iraq. 】

[Anson Deer: What a coincidence, I happened to be watching the news. 】

[Lorenzo: The investigation results have come out. If you have time, we can discuss this matter. 】

At this time, the Bagua souls of Qi Yuanlu and Chu Qimo were blazing, and they came over silently, with a joking face and a stern face respectively leaning on the left and right sides of Ansenlu, staring at the panel quietly.

"Damn it, you guys are so gossipy, won't you wait for the president's notification? What if Lorenzo is talking to me about personal matters?"

Anson Deer felt uncomfortable all over and couldn't help but bumped their shoulders, asking the person to pull away.

"President, I think it is impossible for someone like Lorenzo to discuss personal matters with you." Chu Qimo opened the note, picked up the ballpoint pen, and said calmly.

"Lu Jun, I think this matter is very important. Personally, I am a devout Christian, and the existence of the Tower of Babel is extremely attractive." Qi Yuanlu found a decent reason.

"Who cares about you! Can you please learn to respect personal privacy? If I were the principal, I would definitely punish you to copy the school rules of Shangshi High School a hundred times!"

An Senlu yelled and pushed their shoulders apart hard. Qi Yuanlu and Chu Qimo bumped into each other. In the end, An Senlu compromised miserably.

He typed a reply.

[Anson Deer: Didn’t I say that I was watching the news? I must have time, so where did the “Tower of Babylon” come from? 】

The moment Lorenzo replied to the message, Anson, with quick eyes and quick hands, suddenly stretched out his arms and pinched the deep eye and the cold eye next to him with the index fingers of both hands.

"Crack!"

President Lu was subdued instantly and pinned down on the table, without further comment.

"Oh."

Asuka Uesugi sneered mockingly, and the ruthless sneer reached President Shika's ears.

At this moment, his mood was even worse and miserable.

"Sorry, Mr. Lu, it's a reflex." Qi Yuanlu let go of Anson Lu's left hand.

"Sorry, President, it's a reflex." Chu Qimo let go of An Senlu's right hand.

Ansonlu stood up, pretended to be calm and shrugged, and said expressionlessly:

"Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, remember each and every one of you, and don't let me see you sending messages next time! Especially you, Teacher Chu, as expected, no normal person keeps a diary."

[Lorenzo: This is a hidden dungeon that only level 50 players can enter, but the information is limited. As for the rewards of the dungeon, it is still unknown. 】

"Sure enough, it's a hidden copy." Chu Qimo said.

"It seems that it is a very important copy." Qi Yuanlu thought thoughtfully, "After all, this is outside the time of the copy, and an ancient Babylonian ruins appeared in Iraq."

"Well, the reward should not be ordinary. After all, it is a level 50 dungeon. It may contain hidden props that can change the outcome of the game." Chu Qimo agreed.

Asuka said quietly: "Please, do you believe what the captain of the law enforcement team says?"

"Lorenzo doesn't need to lie." Chu Qimo explained calmly, "It would be better to say that even if he lies, he won't get anything. The initiative is always in his hands."

Anson stretched out his fingers, typed, and sent.

[Ansenlu: Oh, hidden copy. Wait, level 50? Please, do we have a chance to reach level 50 before the Tokyo dragon comes? 】

[Lorenzo: Level 50 is still possible. As long as there are no mistakes, according to the current upgrade progress, the average level of serial players will increase to level 50 around May. At that time, we can try to challenge this "Ba"

"Secret Tower Hidden Copy".]

[Anson Deer: In May, there is only one month before the World Boss arrives. At this critical moment, wouldn’t it be terrible if there were casualties in this hidden dungeon? 】

"Yes." Qi Yuanlu smiled, "In this critical moment, if an important player dies, it will directly affect the outcome of the world boss battle."

"Are you the roundworms in my belly? Can you shut up?" The Anson deer couldn't bear it anymore and almost bit the crow.

[Lorenzo: Of course, there is such a risk. Otherwise, why do you think I would come to you to share this information? Precisely because you are the number one in the world, with your joining, the fault tolerance rate will be increased to the highest level. 】

"President, I suggest you pay attention to your personal image when talking to people like Lorenzo. If you are too rash, you will be subconsciously looked down upon in future cooperation." Chu Qimo reminded.

"Teacher Chu, are you my mother?" An Senlu complained.

[Anson Deer: Yes, after all, I am number one in the world. 】

[Lorenzo: Although it is true, I have to say that you are completely immodest on this point. 】

[Anson Deer: Have you ever thought that if we both burped in this Tower of Babel copy, the world would really be over? 】

"President, are some of your words too harsh?" Chu Qimo hesitated to speak.

Ansen Lu interrupted him: "Shut up the smell, Teacher Chu, the father smell is too strong!"

"Lu-kun, if we had never met before, I would think that people who speak in this tone are imbeciles who have not yet developed their brains." Urushi Yuanlu agreed quietly.

Chu Qimo said seriously: "Indeed, President, pretending to be stupid can make people relax their vigilance towards you, but there must be a limit."

"However, this is Lu Jun's usual style." Qi Yuanlu said, "There are already many blog posts on the Internet analyzing whether the 'old chess player' is a patient with schizophrenia. Some people even think that Lu Jun is the two people.

Taking the characteristics of his character as a specimen, he wrote some unsightly homosexual articles."

"Crow, shut up, this is the president's order."

"Okay." Qi Yuanlu smiled.

Asuka Uesugi was laughing so hard that she punched the table and even folded the paper crane - she really enjoyed watching Anson Deer being tortured by these two weirdos. It was simply the best entertainment program every day.

Under Anson's deadly gaze, Lorenzo quickly replied to the message.

[Lorenzo: That’s impossible. This is my confidence in myself and my confidence in you. 】

"Hey, why did I just come over and see such gay words?" Asuka Uesugi also came over at some point. She raised her eyebrows and said, "It seems that this Lorenzo has such an impression on you."

It’s really good.”

"You are the least qualified to stand next to me and watch." An Senlu glanced at her coldly and then typed.

[Anson Deer: Okay, if I am still alive in May, just remind me and I will fly to Iraq to accompany you through this instance when I have time.]

[Lorenzo: Okay, that’s it, let’s continue the investigation and see if there are any other entrances to the Tower of Babel. If we find any other clues, I will notify you as soon as possible. 】

【Anson Deer:Okay, bye.】

After Ansenlu finished typing, he closed the chat panel.

He took a deep breath and felt as happy as being released from purgatory.

"Have you seen enough?" He turned his head.

"Yeah." The four people behind him nodded. As for why there were four people: because Yuri had just woken up and saw them gathering together, so he came over to take a look at the excitement, but he just took a glance.

"As long as I've seen enough, I'm going to call the police." Ansonlu dialed 110, "Hey, policeman, there are four perverts here, and they have completely violated my civil privacy rights."

The four of them have already done their own thing, and no one continues to praise them.

An Senlu put down his phone in embarrassment, his eyes twitching slightly.

Yuri seemed not to have woken up yet, her clear eyes seemed to be covered by a layer of fog. She covered her mouth with her white hands and yawned gently, her snow-white hair swaying gently.

"Playing chess?" she asked suddenly.

"Well, let's go play chess." Ansonlu stood up.

"Today, I must win a game against you."

"Haha, I remember you have hyperamnesia. Someone said the same thing the day before yesterday."

"Tomorrow, I will say the same thing."

"Oh, you are so pitiful, how about I give you a plate?"

"No." Yuri said decisively, "If you let me, I won't do it again."

The two of them walked out of the dormitory while talking.

Chu Qimo wiped the black Sword of the Sky with a towel and asked, "Speaking of which, are the president and Miss Yourui spending more and more time together recently?"

"Yes, these two get along very well." Qi Yuanliu turned over the Bible.

Asuka Uesugi held her chin, glanced at the closed dormitory door from the corner of her eye, opened her mouth, and said with a hint of discomfort in her voice: "After all, we don't know how to play chess."
