Master Tongtian

Chapter 260 The chess game on the top of the mountain (44)

After leaving the lord's castle, he quietly entered the temple.

After some operations, Rosen saw Alfroya again.

In total, it has been almost a month since the last time we met.

Moreover, this was also the first time he came to the Mountain Hall at night.

Sure enough, it was also dark in the main hall, which once again proved that this place was in the mortal world.

"Come in and sit down."

Alfroya invited directly.

After sitting down, Rosen briefly talked about the invitation from the academy. After finishing speaking, he said: "Sage, I'm here to ask for your advice."

Alfroya thought about it carefully and said: "Father God will not interfere with the choices of mortals in the world. Likewise, I will not influence the path you want to take in the world."

"What really matters is, what do you think?"

"Are you willing to stay in Crescent Town and focus on developing your own territory, making it more prosperous, and even becoming a golden land for mages, or are you willing to go to Winter Castle to live a rich, carefree life?"

Upon hearing this, Rosen couldn't help but laugh: "Saint, you have guessed what I am thinking."

Alfroya stared at Rosen, her dark golden eyes unblinking.

"I have long seen the burning ambition in your heart. I think you will never like to live a life that seems to be privileged but is actually dominated by the superiors."

"In Winter City, even if you are a famous master of the Golden Land, your weight is not worth a word from the Duke."

"But in this exquisite town, as long as you fulfill your duties as a great lord, you are a true lord."

"What you are really worried about is not which path to take, but the trouble you may get into if you refuse to solicit, right?"

Rosen had the feeling that he had met a close friend and couldn't help but sigh.

"Holy One, it is a wonderful and honorable thing to have your understanding."

Alfroya could naturally feel Rosen's emotions and knew that he was sincerely sighing.

Then, the indifferent color on her face disappeared like melting ice, and a sweet and peaceful smile emerged.

"The Duke of the North, Hyperion, is indeed a very arrogant person. In fact, every Duke has a different temper."

"But Hailey Sonja has a good temper, and she still has ambitions in her heart."

Rosen's heart moved: "Ambition? Does she want to inherit the title of Duke?"

Alfroya shrugged: "Who doesn't want to be a mortal god?"

Rosen then fully understood all the intentions of Hailey Sonja to find him.

The smile on Alfroya's face grew wider.

"It seems you already understand. If you can find a way to convince her and get her understanding, maybe you can solve this problem."

Rosen understood, and after thinking about it for a moment, he came up with a solution that had both ends.

Thinking of this, he looked at Alfroya: "Saint, thank you for your guidance, I know what to do."

With that said, he was about to leave, but unexpectedly, Alfroya raised his eyebrows.

"Is your purpose so clear every time? You just leave after you finish speaking, so you can't just chat with me?"

Rosen spread his hands and said, "Sage, I thought you preferred purity."

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge howling sound suddenly came from the night sky outside the gate, like the roar of some huge creature.

Rosen was shocked and hurriedly asked: "What is this?"

"They're just some energetic legendary beasts. Don't worry, they and I have already defined our respective territories, but nothing crosses the boundary."

Rosen asked directly: "So, this is deep in the Luoxue Mountains?"

Alfroya said matter-of-factly: "Yes."

Then she waved her hand and placed a pair of Judgment chess on the table: "It's a long night, will you play a game of chess with me?"

"Play chess? Okay."

Judgment chess is similar to chess, but the rules are much more complicated and it is very interesting to play.

Rosen and Thrandis would occasionally play a few games to change their minds.

Thrandis is very skilled at chess. At the beginning, Rosen lost every time.

As soon as he became ruthless, he designed an automatic chess-playing program that could play ten games in one second. After playing hundreds of thousands of games, he developed an extremely powerful chess-playing program.

Thrandis never won again.

And the more times she played, the faster she lost.

Now, Rosen has basically stopped playing chess, because it feels boring to be the only one who takes action.

In order to prevent his chess skills from colliding with the saint, Rosen took precautions in advance.

"Sage, I don't like to keep my hands when playing chess. If I have offended you, please forgive me."

Alfroya raised an eyebrow: "Offended? Do you mean you can beat me?"

Among the thousands of brothers and sisters, she is ranked in the top 200 in terms of judging chess ability. When she is bored, she will summon mortals to play chess, but she has never met an opponent.

Rosen coughed lightly: "No, no, no, I don't think so, just in case."

"Hmph~ That's what you think!"

She had an idea and placed the chess pieces on the chessboard one by one.

"It's good to be confident, but it's even better to be able to play chess with all your strength. Only then will playing chess be interesting."

After saying that, she pointed at the chess piece: "I am the host and you are the guest. You go first."

"good."

Rosen turned on the computing core, activated the chess-playing program powered by supercomputing, and then started taking action.

Push the chess piece: "Charging Samurai~"

Then he asked: "Sage, I'm curious, isn't it boring for you to stay in this monotonous and cold hall all day?"

Alfroya immediately responded with 'Swamp Trap' and then answered.

"It's boring~ That's why I spend most of my time studying spells, but it's impossible to study spells all the time."

"So, I listen to the prayers of believers, or go out to fight with legendary beasts to kill time."

Rosen then used his hand to 'disperse', and then said: "Fighting? Is it dangerous? What if you get injured?"

"The brain of the legendary beast has a lot of intelligence, and is smarter than most mortals. It will not do things to its death. As long as my father is here, I will only suffer minor injuries at most."

"So, I often borrow them to test out my new spells."

While talking, the two of them played chess back and forth.

In the beginning, the two of them took action at about the same frequency, with a maximum of 3 seconds before taking the next step. But gradually, the situation changed.

Rosen is still able to perform a move in three seconds, but Alfreya is getting slower and slower, so much so that he often falls into long tests of more than ten seconds or even half a minute.

Rosen didn't rush him, so he just waited patiently.

When he reached the 89th move, he launched the final move: "Judgment!"

Alfroya was dumbfounded: "Ah~~I really lost~~"

After being dumbfounded, infinite fighting spirit surged up: "Tsk tsk~ You are the first mortal to defeat me in so many years. You are indeed very powerful~~ It seems that I have something to do again!"

She looked at Rosen with bright eyes.

An idea came to Rosen's mind, so he coughed lightly and took another vaccination.

"Sage, let me tell you first that I will never hold back, because this is respect for my opponent and my own chess skills."

Alfroya chuckled and praised: "Well said!"

"Playing chess requires you to have this kind of mentality. If you don't play chess seriously, what's the point of playing chess?"

"Just try your best. When I see through your chess strategy, don't let your confidence collapse due to consecutive failures."

Rosen shrugged: "Actually, I haven't tasted failure for a long time. It would be wonderful if the Saint could do this and let me experience the feeling of progress again."

After saying that, he said: "Why don't we make some bets?"

"Um?"

Alfruya glanced at Rosen with a half-smile: "Are you thinking about soul knowledge again?"

"It doesn't have to be soul knowledge. You can do other things. For example, if you lose, you can teach me a mortal spell, or just a kiss? If I lose, I can help you with a math problem or something like that."

The mortal spells created by gods must also be very powerful. If you can get one, you will make a lot of money.

As for the kiss, it was not only Rosen's original sin, but it also gave the other party a choice and made the situation more relaxed, lest it turn into a cold transaction.

Alfroya smiled softly: "Kiss? You are so bold, you dare to take my idea!"

Rosen smiled slightly: "Sage, if you feel that I have offended you, then I will take back my words."

"There is no need to take it back, because you can win three more games at most. After three games, I will see your chess moves clearly!"

It's just three kisses. I've kissed before, it's not a big deal, or she can teach a few spells. She knows a lot of mortal spells.

She became interested in chess: "Come on, let's play a few more games."

A game of trial chess only lasted half an hour, and she hadn't played enough yet.

Rosen was a little worried: "I'm heavy. I'm afraid Vina won't be able to bear it for a long time."

"It's a small matter~~ Just wait."

Her eyes were slightly confused for a moment, and after half a minute, she said: "Okay, I asked Wei Na to turn over, and now no one of you is pressing on the other. It's okay to sleep until dawn."

As she spoke, she had already laid out the chessboard: "Quick, quick, quick ~ I will definitely judge you today!"

What else could Rosen say, he could only continue to study with the prince.

You come and I start going down.

Forty minutes later, Rosen made the final call: "Judgment!"

"You guys are really good at it, come again!"

Thirty-six minutes later, Rosen scored the last piece: "Judgment!"

"Huh~~Interesting~Interesting~~Come again~"

Half an hour later, Rosen made the final call: "Judgment!"

After making the move, he frowned slightly: "Sage, why do I feel that you are regressing more and more?"

Alfroya frowned and stared at the chessboard, silent for a long time.

After a while, she finally let out a long breath: "Your chess skills are indeed ridiculously strong. My mind is confused today and I can't continue playing."

Rosen leaned back lazily and said with a smile: "Should you cash in your bet now, or save it first?"

A trace of red flashed across Alfroya's cheeks, and she took a deep breath: "Of course I have to cash it in now, I don't have the habit of defaulting on my debts."

"Then the saint will teach me magic, or..."

Alfroya thought for a moment and said: "I lost too much chess tonight. My brain is like a paste. If I don't want to move, I won't teach spells."

"Fine."

Rosen stood up, approached Alfroya, and before asking for the bet, asked: "Why does it count as one?"

Alfroya didn't think about it carefully: "Can you give me a standard?"

"Six seconds counts as one?"

"Can."

Rosen leaned over to get his reward.

This time it was agreed in advance, and both parties were mentally prepared, so he didn't have to worry about overstimulating the other party, so he did it openly.

Five seconds later, I suddenly found a response.

"Interesting~" Rosen found it very interesting.

As a result, the original 18-second reward was inexplicably extended to more than five minutes.

"Hmph~ That's enough~"

Alfroya pushed Rosen away with flushed cheeks: "Go back!"

Before he finished speaking, Rosen's vision went dark and he returned to Wei Na's room.

After communicating with Vina for a while, he quietly left the temple.

We left the temple and returned to the castle. It was only around 9 o'clock at night, not too late.

He thought for a moment, then walked to Haili Sonja's door, and first asked the attendant waiting near the door: "Has Miss Sonja rested?"

"No, she just came back from playing in the yard."

Rosen came to the door and knocked gently: "Your Highness, can I chat with you?"

After a while, a response came from the door: "Come in."
