Global Games: Old Chess Players

Asuka's side was also very easy to deal with. She and Yuri used lightning and wind to clear away the bloody hand sharks that invaded the car. In the end, the number of kills between the two was even.

At this time, in the restaurant car, five people were sitting at the dining table, eating dessert.

"Fortunately, the sleeping and eating compartments were not damaged by them." Asuka Uesugi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes, it's time to go to bed." Anson Deer yawned, "I just happen to be a little sleepy."

At this moment, the screen of his mobile phone suddenly lit up. Looking at the screen, it showed that he had received a scheduled email. The sender's ID was very familiar to him.

Ansonlu stared at the ID, his pupils shrank for a moment, and he was stunned for a full two seconds, and then quickly regained his composure.

"Mr. Lu, what's wrong?" Qi Yuanlu noticed the change in Ansenlu's face.

"It's okay." Ansonlu shrugged, turned off the phone, "I'm going to bed first."

Without saying hello, he walked slowly to Car No. 23, turned on the screen of his mobile phone, and stared at the text of the email quietly.

The train once again passed through a marine tunnel, the moonlight was swallowed up by the dark tunnel wall, the incandescent lights flickered on and off, and only the mobile phone screen glowed dimly.

[Principal: I suddenly remembered something. If you are lucky, you and I may be able to fight each other during this period. Don't be too surprised. However, that is not me now, but "I" who is currently in the fifth round of dungeons.

”, rather, it is an existence similar to me at that time.】

Ansonlu looked at this unexplained text repeatedly and cursed: "What's wrong? Old principal, what do you mean? You can't speak if you're not the Riddler, right?"

He continued to look down.

[I guess with your personality, when you saw this, you were already scolding me for being sick.]

Ansonlu was silent for a moment. He touched his sore nose and laughed softly for some reason.

"I'm pretty self-aware," he said.

[This concept is related to parallel worlds. According to my research and observation, the game system will arrange a plot for the first player in the current world during the fifth round of dungeons. 】

[No matter what dungeon you choose, this plot will most likely appear. 】

[This link is - fighting against the "strongest self" in the parallel world. 】

[Yes, the evolution game unfolds in multiple parallel worlds at the same time. The god who controls the game wants to select the strongest human beings from several parallel worlds, so the game system is arranged like this. 】

Ansenlu's pupils shrank slightly and continued to look down.

[At that time, I entered a gladiatorial arena. In that gladiatorial arena, I had a draw with myself from a parallel world. His and I have very similar styles. It would be better to say that he and I are almost the same person——

Regardless of personality, playing style, or chess type, they are all 99% similar, so we can’t tell the difference.】

【But you are different, you are the "unprecedented Anson Deer" created by me.】

[So, this time, you should be able to compete with that person, instead of just being tied with him like me.]

【I hope you won’t lose to him, which means you lost to me.】

Anson put his hand on his chin and stared at the text of the email with his brown eyes. The train was driving in the dark tunnel, like a crawling black snake, making a hissing sound of rushing steam.

He thought for a long time, "When I entered the dungeon, it seemed that the arena was mentioned in the dungeon introduction. It should be the last part of this dungeon?"

The scheduled delivery time was two months ago.

The principal sent this email earlier than the previous one.

Maybe this old man really suddenly thought of this matter, but due to rules, he couldn't tell Ansen Lu in person, nor could he let him know about it in advance.

Therefore, he sent a scheduled email, scheduled for two nights after the start of the fifth round of dungeons.

"Fighting against the strongest self in the parallel world?" Ansonlu muttered, "The principal also experienced the same thing as me. At that time, he tied with Ansonlu from the parallel world. That person's style was similar to the principal.

"

Thinking of this, Ansenlu's calm mood gradually cooled down - according to this idea, he was not actually dealing with the principal, the other party was just a being similar to the principal.

That person is not the principal, but he is very similar to the principal from decades ago.

Ansenlu didn't know what kind of mood he would have when he entered that arena and faced the so-called "strongest self in the parallel world."

What kind of chess set will the opponent use?

The principal said that the chess set of the person he met was very similar to his, so the chess type used by the upcoming opponent must be the chess type used by the principal...

"When you sleep, you will post some boring things to fool me. When you die, how about you just treat me like a corpse?" Anson Deer yawned, with sleepy tears in his eyes.

He chose to put the email matter behind him for the time being. The arena was most likely already the third part of the dungeon. After the train arrived at Hawaii Island, he first had to deal with the second part of the dungeon before thinking about the third part.

link.

The second link is related to the word "sacred tree". Ansonlu can't imagine what it is...

He climbed up the ladder to the third berth at the top.

Lie down, put your head on the pillow, turn off the incandescent lights in the carriage, the world falls into dead silence, the train pulls out of the tunnel, and the undulating sea brings the gentle sound of the tide, which is perfect to accompany you to sleep.

Anson Deer turned his head and looked out the window, where the moonlight shrouded the quiet sea and the waves rose and fell.

No matter what, at least he had a lot of fun in the first part of the dungeon - wandering aimlessly on the train with Yuri, taking many photos with her, touching her cold hands,

Look at her expressionless little face and feel her unambiguous gaze.

Anson Deer felt for the first time that he seemed to be connected with the world.

He is no longer outside the world, no longer blindly watching the train move forward on the endless track, no longer blindly being pushed along by the world.

The principal just pushed him and made him face himself and the various aspects of the world - cruelty and beauty. He began to feel the emotions - pain and happiness - that were obliterated in the car accident.

He seemed to start reaching out to the world. At first he was trembling, covered in bruises, and timid, like a hedgehog or a porcupine, afraid of being hurt, so he covered himself with thorns.

At this moment, the person who really took over his hand was the Icelandic girl whom he had never seen in more than ten years.

"Go to sleep."

While Ansenlu murmured to himself, he stretched out his well-jointed left hand, silently opened the friend list, found Yuri's name, thought about it, and then closed the list.

"bite."

The cell phone beep sounded from his pocket, and the boy's messy and scattered messages were cut off. He took out his cell phone from his coat pocket and opened the message bubble that popped up on the screen.

It's a message from her.

【Yuri:(Picture)(Picture)(Picture)(Picture).】

Many pictures cannot be loaded for a while because the signal on the train is too poor.

Ansonlu opened those pictures, and the network loaded them one by one. The pictures were gradually displayed, and he looked at them one by one. They were photos taken by Yuri in the clothing carriage during the day.

Clicking on the first photo, he sighed and smiled helplessly - it was the funny look of him wearing that Sherlock Holmes cos suit and holding a cigarette rod in his mouth. Anson thought he looked stupid, but Yuri rarely seemed like that.

Have fun.

Will she really be happy? Anson Lu thought of this, and then remembered the sequence mission in the library car. Yuri hid the book "Snowy Autumn" behind her back, and her light white hair covered the side of her face.

, there was a trace of tears in the corners of his red eyes.

It seems that she is no longer what she used to be. She looks like a doll and cannot feel any emotion. When you were close to her, all you could feel was distance and alienation.

At that time, Anson deer relied heavily on this sense of distance.

He likes that feeling, which makes him feel safe. He doesn't have to worry about the relationship breaking up, or the other party getting too close and discovering his ferocious face hidden under his playful smile, and his unbreakable loneliness.

But it was different now. He didn't know how to describe his mood.

No matter what, they all seem to be becoming complete, and they are all experiencing things they have never experienced in the past ten years - growing up with friends, changing together, and traveling together.

This is enough.

Ansonlu was in a happy mood and continued to scroll back and saw the group photo.

Yuri is wearing a cheongsam, half of her face is shrouded in faint light and shadow, her eyelashes are dyed golden, her snow-white hair strands are swaying gently, her slender hand is holding Ansonlu's arm, her serious face is just like him.

So close, almost touching.

The Anson deer in the photo has its mouth slightly open, its ears and face are a little red, and its brown eyes are dull.

Although Ansonlu felt that he was being photographed a bit unbearably in this photo, and half of Yuri's face could not be clearly seen, he still collected this photo in his album.

He stared at the photo, lost in thought for a while, and suddenly remembered Yuri's words - "It can be someone other than family members."

Ansonlu shrugged his shoulders, but his face was still a little warm. He was thinking that he and this Icelandic girl should be together, right? Besides friends and family, aren't there only lovers?

Of course, or is this common sense idiot from Iceland thinking about words like aliens?

No matter what, that will happen after the evolution game is over.

That's their agreement.

By the way, if the principal knew that the so-called "unprecedented Anson Deer" whom he had put so much effort into cultivating was thinking about these things in his mind, he would be so angry that he would vomit blood, right?

When Ansenlu thought of this, he turned over in bed with joy. Now that he thought about the old man, he was not so sad anymore. Although he said goodbye to the principal, there were still new people around him.

As long as this evolutionary game is completely ended and the world returns to normal operation.

From now on, everyone can stay together all the time. Maybe he can open a bookstore and hang out in Shangishi City. During the holidays, he and Yuri can go to Tokyo to find Crow Skiing, or he can go to Teacher Chu Chu’s kendo gym—

-Chu Qimo said that he would open a kendo gym in the future. With his strength, he would have no problem supporting himself by teaching kendo.

What about Asuka?

Ansonlu doesn't know how the Uesugi family will arrange her future, but everything doesn't matter. As long as they can get through this crisis safely, there is still a long time to come. They are only seventeen or eighteen years old, and life has just begun.

.

He stretched out his fingers and typed using the phone's input method.

[Anson Deer: Okay, then I will accept these photos mercifully. 】

After more than ten seconds, Yuri replied to the message.

【Yuri: I'm sleepy, good night.】

【Anson Deer:Okay, good night.】

After Ansonlu sent the message, he put his phone next to his pillow and glanced at the empty sleeper car.

It's only eight o'clock in the evening, and Qi Yuanlu and Chu Qimo haven't returned to the carriage yet.

At this time, the two people were probably still drinking and chatting in the restaurant car.

Asuka is also a night owl. During holidays, she often plays console games until midnight. She can still get up early the next day and use her travel coupons to go to the beach to surf. She is simply the representative of "energetic", but Anson Deer treats her like this.

Very much admired.

But after all, looking at the current momentum: we will be able to reach Hawaii Island at the earliest tomorrow or the day after tomorrow at the latest. By then, we may not be able to eat as well or have fun as well as on the train.

They had to take advantage of the first session to enjoy it for a while longer before it was over.

A night of silence.

On the morning of February 3, the sky was clear and the sea and sky were the same color.

This thousand-and-five-hundred-meter-long train is like an indestructible icebreaker, breaking away from ice floes and speeding across the sea under the bright sun. The track is about to end.

Soon, the sea train ended its two-day and two-night journey, sailed along the track into a prosperous island, and stopped on a spectacular black sand beach.

When Anson Deer opened his eyes, the train had already arrived at Hawaii Island.

He yawned, moved his head, and looked out the window. What he saw was a black beach, reciprocating waves, a vast forest in the distance, and above that a volcano of gray, black and scarlet colors.

What was even more visually shocking was a pitch-black fortress built in the crater of a volcano. When his sight touched this giant object, Anson Deer's pupils shrank and he couldn't help but raise his brows.

This is a huge black tree that is so big that it can penetrate the sky.

This giant tree is rooted in the mountains and absorbs the magma of the volcano. Only the middle part of the giant tree is exposed outside the clouds, and the upper part is completely obscured by the storm-like clouds.

At first, Anson Deer couldn't tell it was a tree at all, but thought it was a huge fortress built on the crater, or some other magnificent building.

He estimated with his eyes that this giant tree must be at least 2,000 meters high.

Moreover, this is the most conservative estimate. As for the specific height of this giant tree, it depends on the upper part shrouded by the storm clouds...

What is even more unbelievable than the giant tree itself is that looking from a distance, one can see a dark giant dragon with its wings folded and stationed in the middle of the pitch-black giant tree.

The black dragon raised his head high and stared at the sky aloofly.

"Oh, the dragons have come out." Anson Deer stared at the dark giant dragon located about 600 meters above the giant tree, and murmured in surprise: "It seems that this second link will definitely not be easy."

dragon?

A black dragon perched on a sacred tree?

Without even guessing, Anson Deer could clearly draw the conclusion that this dragon would most likely be the boss of the second stage.

Climb the sacred tree and defeat the magic dragon.

The tone of the second stage of the copy is roughly the same.

Although the height of this giant tree is exaggerated, how to climb that giant tree is not a problem at all for everyone at Hell Lighthouse.

After all, Urushi, Asuka, Yuri, and Anson himself all have powerful flying abilities - Urushi can control crows; Asuka can transform into a red dragon; Yuri can create ice; Anson has a Christmas sleigh.

In the guild, only Yuliu and Chu Qimo have no flying skills, but we can't make any hasty conclusions about Yuliu. After all, it's not surprising that he develops any skills based on his sequence.

As for Teacher Chu, just find someone to fly him up.

"Lu Jun, it's time to go." A lazy voice came from the lower bunk.

Ansonlu moved his head from the railing of the upper bunk and glanced at Qi Yuanlu - the crow had just woken up from sleep. He yawned and opened the album covering his face, revealing his face with soft features.

"Is everyone else awake?" Anson Deer asked contemptuously.

"We should all have reached the restaurant car. The train has been stopped for almost an hour." Qi Yuanlu stood up from the bed.

"Let's go, wash up and eat." Ansonlu looked out the window again and said thoughtfully: "It seems that the difficulty of this dungeon is definitely much higher than we thought."

At this moment, from the giant tree standing in the crater of the volcano, a dragon's roar suddenly echoed through the sky. The entire Hawaiian Island was trembling, and the birds in the forest were flying in fear.

"As of now, it seems that the difficulty is not low." Qi Yuanlu moved his deep eyes and looked out the window.

"Crow, what do you think the level of that dragon is?"

"No matter what the level is, since it appears in the form of a dragon, it seems that there is plenty of room for us to play." Qi Yuanlu raised the corners of his mouth and said in a calm voice.

"After all, the world boss is just a snow dragon." Ansonlu shrugged and said calmly, "However, dragons are not necessarily the top species in the evolution game. For example, look at the crybaby named Uesugi. Is that right?

The impression of dragons suddenly collapsed?"

"That's true."

"Huh?" A clear voice came from the next car, "Whose surname is Uesugi?"

It seemed that Asuka had woken up. She walked in impatiently and looked at Anson Deer unhappily: "President Deer, you just got up early in the morning and you said bad things about me, right? It's rare that I want to come and invite you to dinner."

"Okay, okay, it's time to eat." Ansonlu jumped out of bed, put on his shoes, and washed up in the toilet.

Soon, the system prompts sounded in the ears of the five people.

[The first phase of the triple structural dungeon "Sea Train, Sacred Tree and Arena" has ended. Crews, please log in to Hawaii Island as soon as possible, enter the nearest resort, and start the second phase of the dungeon]
