Global Games: Old Chess Players

Chapter 8
Night fell suddenly, the sky was dark, and the moon was faint.

At this moment, the lonely ghost warrior slowly approached the alley, and its figure became more and more clear in An Senlu's sight.

coming·······
An Senlu took a deep breath, a coolness spread from his spine, and gradually spread to every inch of skin, even the pores were tightly closed.

The ghost warrior's appearance is too creepy, his hideous and distorted face is like a ghost growing in a sulfur spring, and his body is filled with a stench between fishy smell and tobacco smell.

"I would really appreciate it. Would you like to be so disgusting?" An Senlu narrowed his eyes, his stomach was like a thousand coelenterate like earthworms wriggling back and forth, trying to go upstream from the esophagus.

Moving forward, he came to the center of the street.

This is for the convenience of arranging the chessboard. If the chess field is expanded in the lane, the range of movement of the chess pieces will be greatly restricted.

Like a shark smelling blood, the ghost warrior twisted his stiff neck. Under the shadow of the helmet, his eyes burning with dark blue ghost flames were fixed on the figure of Ansen deer.

This thing is much more terrifying than zombies. Ansen Lu's scalp tingled with pressure, and he said softly:
"Chess field."

According to the method taught by the game system, I silently recited the word 'Chess Field' in my heart, and the environment within a radius of 30 meters was instantly divided into six or four grids by dotted lines.

[Skill Name: Chess Domain]

[Skill Type: Active Skill]

[Skill introduction: Based on the surrounding environment, expand the chessboard and release extraordinary chess pieces. The chess pieces will move within the chessboard according to the instructions of the old chess players. The chess pieces cannot leave the chessboard, otherwise they will disappear immediately. 】

[Note: The coverage of the chess field will expand with the improvement of the spiritual attribute]

The field belonging to the old chess players spread out, dividing the streets within a radius of 30 meters into pieces of grids that make up the chessboard.

With the expansion of the chess field, An Senlu's passive skill "Chess King" also showed its effect.

Chess Master - The effect of this skill is to allow Anson Lu to have a God's perspective overlooking the chessboard, which is convenient for him to observe the situation covered by the chessboard.

At this time, phantoms of four chess pieces gradually appeared around Ansenlu's shoulders, and the phantoms of the pawns slowly revolved around him, like stars revolving around the earth.

From the shape of these phantoms, it is easy to identify which chess type these phantoms represent.

"There is only one piece." An Senlu said, "It will be gone when it is used up. Every time the chess piece is taken back, or after the chess piece is defeated, it will take half an hour to use this chess piece again."

[You can silently recite an instruction similar to 'arrange xx pieces to xx squares' in your heart to realize the extraordinary pieces into reality]

Using the God's perspective brought by "Chess King", Ansenlu quickly confirms the number of grids where he is, and has a clear insight into all things within a radius of 30 meters.

The wind blew the grass, the trees shook and the leaves fell, every falling snowflake, and the twisted figure of the ghost warrior stumbling forward, all clearly appeared in his mind.

I don't know if it was his illusion, but he suddenly felt that the passage of time became extremely slow, or his thinking speed increased significantly after the chess field unfolded.

"It would be nice to be able to play chess like this every time."

Anson Deer adapts to the overlapping of the first perspective and God's perspective. Relying on the extra perspective, he can use a mode far beyond ordinary people to collect information about the surrounding environment.

The ghost samurai arched his waist and rushed towards An Senlu with his sword in hand.

"Roar!!!!"

The bodies of the two kept approaching, the cold wind howled, and the blade of the Taidao was glowing with cold light.

An Senlu stretched out his bony right hand, and clamped four stone chess pieces between the gaps between his five fingers. The eye sockets of the chess pieces were burning with surging flames, drawing a cold blue-red trajectory in the night sky.

At the same time, he said in his heart:
"The stone statue of the king is arranged in the B2 grid."

"The stone statue of the knight is arranged in the C2 grid."

"The stone statue of the bishop is placed on grid D1."

"Soldier statues, arranged in E2 grid."

Thoughts fell like the wind and thunder, and the four stone chess pieces disappeared in the hands of An Senlu.

Instead, gigantic stone statues with strange shapes suddenly appeared in front of the boy.

The shape of these stone statues perfectly fits the images of "king" (king), "bishop" (bishop), "horse" (knight) and "bing" (pawn) in chess.

In the eye sockets of the four stone statues, a raging blue fire was burning, and the turbulent fighting spirit was like the roar of the pine wind. The ground shook slightly, as if thousands of troops and horses stepped across the chessboard.

[Old chess players are not limited by the rules of any chess game. You can use the chess pieces to make actions at will, but the chess pieces cannot exceed the board, otherwise they will quickly dissipate.]

"Oh, there is no such rule as 'bishops can only go diagonally, pawns can only go forward'." An Senlu was stunned for a second, and the corners of his mouth kept rising:
"The stone statue of the knight, move to the D4 square, hit it!"

tread!
tread!
tread!
The horseshoe of the stone statue of the knight stepped, and it galloped out on the stone horse. The steel spear in its hand tore through the air, making a sound of piercing the air, and stabbed at the ghost warrior with a strong momentum.

"Pfft."

That ancient armor could not resist the spear of the stone knight statue at all. The ghost warrior's chest was pierced by the spear point, and his whole body was lifted high by the stone knight statue and thrown into the air.

The blood bar on the ghost warrior's head dropped rapidly, from 100% health to only 40.00% in length.

【100%→40%】

At this time, the figure of Oni Samurai turned around in the air, it held the Taidao tightly, roared to the ground, and slashed the Taidao towards the stone statue of the bishop!

The stone statue of the bishop is a kind of chess that is responsible for healing, and has no direct combat power.

"True or false, it doesn't matter."

An Senlu stared at the ghost warrior who turned around in the air, somewhat surprised. Originally, he thought that this kind of mob, which was only two levels, should shatter when touched.

"However, it doesn't matter." He said calmly, "Soldier statue, move to the right to the D2 space, and kill it."

Stepping on heavy boots, the stone pawn walked forward three steps at a time, raised the long steel sword in his hand, and slashed out with unstoppable force.

"hiss!!!"

The sword edge just hit the ghost warrior falling from the sky, cutting a deadly black and blue gully, the ghost warrior and his armor were almost cut in half.

"Roar!!!"

The ghost samurai wailed fiercely, and the sword in his hand fell to the ground.

Its limited health also bottomed out, dropping to zero at an extremely fast speed.

【40%→0%】

"Solved very quickly"

An Senlu scratched his hair, a look of boredom flashed in his dark brown pupils.

"I wanted to try again, forget it, if it takes so much effort to fight a mob, it's not considered a hidden profession."

Using the bird's-eye view brought by "Chess Master", he confirmed that there were no other ghost warriors around, so he temporarily put away the chessboard.

[Chess Field] The cooling time of this skill is 10 minutes. If An Senlu wants to lay out a new chessboard elsewhere, he must honestly survive the 10-minute cooling period.

To be honest, Anson Deer really hopes that this cooldown time will gradually decrease in the future.

Otherwise, the limitations of the old chess player profession are too great, and it is especially easy to be restrained by players or monsters with high mobility and agility.
