Global Games: Old Chess Players

Asuka's solution was also very easy. She and Yuri wiped out the blood-handed sharks that invaded the car with a quick wind and thunder.

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

"Fortunately, they didn't spoil the sleeping and eating compartments." Asuka Uesugi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yes, it's time to go to bed." An Senlu yawned, "I happen to be a little sleepy."

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

An Senlu stared at the ID, his pupils constricted for a moment, he was stunned for a full two seconds, and quickly regained his composure.

"Lu Jun, what's the matter?" Urushi Haru observed the change in An Senlu's face.

"It's okay." An Senlu shrugged and turned off his phone, "I'm going to sleep first."

Without saying hello, he walked slowly to carriage 23, turned on the phone screen, and stared at the text of the email quietly.

The train shuttled into a sea tunnel again, the moonlight was swallowed up by the dark tunnel wall, the incandescent lamp flickered on and off, only the phone screen glowed dimly.

[Principal: I suddenly remembered something. If you are lucky, you and I may be able to meet each other during this period of time. Don't be too surprised. ", rather it is an existence similar to me at that time. 】

An Senlu looked at the unclear text repeatedly, and said cursingly: "What's wrong? What do you mean, old principal, you can't speak without being a riddle?"

He continued to look down.

[Presumably with your personality, when you saw this, you were already calling me sick. 】

An Senlu was silent for a moment, he touched his sore nose, and smiled softly for some reason.

"It's kind of self-aware," he said.

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

[No matter what dungeon you choose, there is a high probability that this plot will appear. 】

[This link is—to fight against the "strongest self" in the parallel world. 】

[That's right, the evolution game is played 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 in this way. 】

An Senlu's pupils contracted slightly, and he continued to look down.

[At that time, I entered an arena, and in that arena, I had a tie with myself from the parallel world. My style was very similar to his. Rather, I was almost the same person as him—— Regardless of personality, style of play, or type of chess, they all have a 90.00% similarity, so we are evenly matched. 】

[But you are different, you are the "Anson deer that has never been seen before" 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 Deer put his hand on his chin, and his brown eyes were fixed on the text of the mail. The train was driving in the dark tunnel, like a big black snake crawling forward, making a hissing sound of steam.

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

The scheduled sending time was two months ago.

The principal sent this email earlier than the previous email.

Maybe the old man really thought of this all of a sudden, but because of the rules, he couldn't tell An Senlu face to face, nor let him know about it in advance.

Therefore, he sent a regular email, which was scheduled for two nights after the fifth round of dungeons started.

"Fight against the strongest self in the parallel world?" Anson Lu murmured, "The principal also experienced the same thing as me. At that time, he was tied with An Senlu from the parallel world, and that person's style was similar to the principal. "

Thinking of this, An Senlu's turbulent mood gradually cooled down—according to this way of thinking, he didn't actually fight the principal, and the other party was just an existence similar to the principal.

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

An Senlu didn't know what kind of mood he was going to have when he entered that arena and faced this so-called "parallel world's strongest self".

What kind of chess set will the opponent use?
The headmaster said that the chess set of the person he met was very similar to him, so the chess style used by this upcoming opponent must be the same chess set that the headmaster used...

"When I'm sleeping, I will send some boring things to fool me, and I will be a corpse when I die, okay?" An Senlu yawned, with sleepy tears in his eyes.

He chose to temporarily forget about the mail. The arena is likely to be the third link of the dungeon. After the train arrives at Hawaii Island, first, he has to deal with the second link of the dungeon, and then consider the third link. links.

The second link is related to the word "Sacred Tree". An Senlu couldn't imagine what it would be...

Following the ladder, he climbed to the top third berth.

Lie down, put your head on the pillow, turn off the incandescent lights in the carriage, the world falls into dead silence, the train exits the tunnel, and the undulating sea brings the gentle sound of the tide, which is perfect for falling asleep with you.

An Senlu turned his head and looked out of the window. The moonlight shrouded the quiet sea, and the waves rose and fell.

Anyway, at least he had a good time in the first part of the dungeon - wandering aimlessly on this train with Yuri, taking many photos with her, touching her cold hands, Looking at her expressionless little face, feel her unambiguous gaze.

For the first time, An Senlu felt that he seemed to be connected with the world.

No longer wandering outside the world, no longer blindly watching the train go on the endless track, no longer blindly being pushed by the world.
The principal just gave him a push to let him face himself and face the world—cruelty and beauty—and let him feel the emotions that were wiped out in the car accident—pain and happiness.

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

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

"Go to sleep."

While muttering to himself, An Senlu stretched out his bony left hand, silently opened the friend list, found Yuri's name, thought about it, and then closed the list.

"Ding."

The notification sound of the mobile phone came from his pocket, and the juvenile's messy and sloppy messages were cut off. He took out the mobile phone from his coat pocket and opened the message bubble that popped up on the screen.

It was a message from her.

[Yuri: (picture) (picture) (picture) (picture). 】

There are a lot of pictures, the signal on the train is too bad, and it will not be loaded for a while.

An Senlu opened those pictures, and the network loaded them one by one, and the pictures were gradually displayed, and they were checked one by one. They were photos taken by You Rui in the clothing compartment during the day.

When he clicked on the first photo, he sighed softly and smiled helplessly—it was him wearing that Sherlock Holmes cosplay suit with a cigarette stick in his mouth. Anson Lu felt that he looked stupid, but Yuri rarely did that. had fun.

Will she really be happy?An Senlu thought of this, and remembered the sequence mission in the library carriage. Yuri hid the "Autumn Days of Falling Snow" behind her, her pale hair covered her side face, and there was a trace of tears at the corners of her red eyes .

It seems that she is no longer what she used to be, she looks like a puppet, unable to perceive the slightest emotion, when approaching her at that time, all she can feel is the sense of distance and alienation.

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

He likes that feeling, which makes him feel very safe. He doesn't have to be afraid of breaking the relationship, and he doesn't have to be afraid of discovering his hideous face hidden under his hippie smile and loneliness that can't be vented because the other person gets too close.

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

Regardless, they both seem to be coming together, and they're both experiencing things they haven't experienced in the past decade or so—growing up with friends, changing together, and traveling together.

That's enough.

An Senlu was in a happy mood, and continued to scroll back, and saw the group photo.

Yuri is wearing a cheongsam, with half of her face covered in faint light and shadow, her eyelashes are dyed golden, her snow-white locks are gently swaying, her slender hand is holding An Senlu's arm, her serious face is only in front of him So close, almost so close.

An Senlu in the photo opened his mouth slightly, his ears and face were a little red, and dullness was written in his brown eyes.

Although An Senlu felt that in this photo, he couldn't bear to look directly at him, and half of Yuri's face could not be seen clearly, but he still kept this photo in his album.

He stared at this photo, lost his mind for a while, and suddenly remembered Yuri's words - "It can be someone other than family."

Anson Lu shrugged his shoulders, his face was still a little hot, he was thinking that he and this Icelandic girl should be together, right?Apart from friends and family, isn't it just lovers?
Sure, or is this common-sense idiot from Iceland thinking of words like aliens?
In any case, that's after the end of the evolution game.

That is their agreement.

In other words, if the headmaster knew that the so-called "Ansen deer that he had put so much effort into cultivating" was thinking about these things in his mind, he would be so angry that he vomited blood, right?
As soon as An Senlu thought of this, he turned over happily on the bed. Now that he thought of the old man, he was not so sad anymore. Although he bid farewell to the principal, it was not that there were no new people around him.

As long as this game of evolution is completely over, the world can return to normal operation.

From now on, everyone can stay together forever. Maybe he can open a bookstore, hang out in Shangshi City, go to Tokyo with Yuri to find crow skis during the holidays, or go to a series of master Chu’s kendo gyms— —Chu Qimo said that he would open a kendo gym in the future. With his strength, it is no problem to support himself by teaching kendo.

What about Asuka?
An Senlu 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, the future is still very long. They are only 78 years old, and their lives have just begun.

He stretched out his finger and typed with the phone's input method.

[An Senlu: Alright, then I will accept these photos with great mercy. 】

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

[Yuri: I'm sleepy, good night. 】

[Anson Deer: Okay, good night. 】

After An Senlu sent the message, he put his phone beside his pillow and glanced at the empty sleeper car.

It was only eight o'clock in the evening, and Qi Yuanru and Chu Qimo hadn't returned to the carriage yet.

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

Asuka is also a night owl. During the holidays, she often plays console games until midnight, and she can get up early the next day and go to the beach with a travel pass to surf. A little worship.

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

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

Silent all night.

On the morning of February 2, the sky was clear and the sea and sky were the same color.

This 500-meter-long train is like an indestructible icebreaker, swaying through the ice floes, galloping on the sunny sea, and the track is about to end.

Soon, the sea train ended its journey of two days and two nights, sailed along the track to a prosperous island, and stopped on a rather spectacular black sand beach.

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

He yawned, turned his head, and looked out the window. What he saw was a black sand beach, reciprocating waves, a vast forest in the distance, and a volcano intertwined with gray, black and scarlet.

What is even more visually shocking is a pitch-black fortress built on a crater. When the line of sight touched this giant, Ansen's deer's pupils shrank and he couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

This is a pitch-black giant tree that is huge enough to penetrate the sky.

This giant tree is rooted in the mountains, absorbing volcanic magma, and only the middle part of this giant tree is exposed outside the clouds, and all the higher parts are covered by the storm-like clouds.

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

He estimated with his eyes that this giant tree must be at least 2000 meters high.

Moreover, this is an estimate in the most conservative direction. As for the exact height of this sky-reaching giant tree, it depends on the upper half covered by the storm clouds...

What is even more unbelievable than the giant tree itself is that, looking from afar, one can see a black giant dragon with its wings folded, stopping at the middle part of the pitch-black giant tree.

The black dragon raised its head high, staring at the sky with aloofness.

"Oh, the dragons have come out." An Senlu stared at the black dragon about 600 meters above the giant tree, and murmured in surprise: "It seems that this second link will definitely not be very simple."

dragon?
A black dragon perched on a sacred tree?

Without guessing at all, An Senlu could clearly draw the conclusion that this dragon is most likely the boss of the second session.

Climb up the sacred tree and overturn the magic dragon.

The tone of the second part of the dungeon 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 in the hell lighthouse.

After all, Urushihara, Asuka, Yuri, and Anson Deer himself all have powerful flying abilities-Urushihara Ritsu can control crows; Asuka can turn into a red dragon; Yuri can create ice surfaces; Anson Deer has a Christmas sleigh.

In the trade union, only Juliu and Chu Qimo had no flying skills, but Juliu should not be judged. After all, it is not surprising that his sequence has developed any skills.

As for Mr. Chu, just find someone to take him up there.

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

An Senlu moved his head from the railing of the upper bunk and glanced at Ritsu Urushi - the crow had just woken up, and yawned and opened the album covering his face, revealing that face with feminine features.

"Is everyone else awake?" An Senlu asked contemptuously.

"They should all be in the restaurant car, the train stopped for almost an hour." Ritsu Urushihara got up from the bed.

"Let's go, wash up and go eat." An Senlu looked out of the window again, and said thoughtfully: "This copy, now it seems that the difficulty is definitely much higher than we imagined."

At this moment, from the giant tree standing in the sky on the crater, there was a dragon chant that resounded through the sky suddenly, the whole Hawaiian island was trembling, and the birds in the forest were flying in fear.

"From the current point of view, the difficulty is not low." Ritsu Urushihara moved his dark eyes and looked out of the window as well.

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

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

"After all, the World Boss is a snow dragon." An Senlu shrugged and said lightly, "However, dragons are not necessarily the top species in the evolution game. For example, look at the crying bag with the surname Uesugi, isn't it right?" The impression of dragons suddenly collapsed?"

"That's true."

"Huh?" A clear voice came from the next car, "Which name did you say Uesugi?"

It seemed that Asuka had already woken up, she walked in impatiently, and looked at Ansen Lu displeasedly: "President Lu, you just got up early in the morning, and you can speak ill of me, it's rare that I want to come and ask you to eat."

"Alright, alright, it's time to eat." An Senlu jumped off the bed, put on his shoes, and washed himself in the toilet.

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

[The first part of the triple-structure dungeon "Sea Train, God Tree, and Arena" has ended, flight attendants please log in to Hawaii Island as soon as possible, enter the nearest resort, and start the second part of the dungeon]
