I, holding a long sword in my hand, only know one move

"No, how is that possible! I didn't do anything!" Cheng Rang immediately denied it.

"Hmph, this is best." Leticia folded her arms and sat back on the sofa again. "Win three out of five games. The three of us have already defeated you in one game. You have to be careful."

"There are still chances for a comeback, don't get complacent too early!"

While Cheng Rang was holding the dice cup and looking back and forth for inspection, Leticia secretly winked at Kelon and raised a sly smile on her lips.

Kelon immediately understood what Letitia meant. It turned out that she had tampered with the dice cup.

As long as it is exposed, it is regarded as defeat, but if it is not exposed, cheating is not a bad idea.

Leticia thought she understood it correctly, and the facts also verified her approach.

Cheng Rang didn't notice what he had done. He didn't even understand what happened, and he didn't even suspect Letitia.

It can only be said... As a rookie who has just started to learn time spells and a swordsman with an intelligence of 9 points, there is still a long way to go in front of Leticia.

"I don't believe it, come again!"

Clatter, the dice cup was covered and the sound continued in Cheng Rang's hand.

But this time, Cheng Rang also started to take it seriously, and the small round table and dice cup suddenly became turbulent.

How could I, who is known as the underground god of gambling, Helsalemzi Lot, end up here today?

Give Ollie to the brothers and that's it!

As everyone knows, Leticia's little test on his time spell has just begun.

Chapter 27 Although it’s just a game, it’s no joke

The final result ended with Cheng Rang's 3-0 defeat.

The moment the dice cup opened, looking at the bizarre changes under his control, Cheng Rang finally turned his gaze to Leticia's face next to him.

"I lost."

After the game ended, Cheng Rang, who had looked furious before, was extremely calm now. He leaned back in his chair and smiled: "I will fulfill the bet agreement and repair the city for everyone, but I also have a problem."

"Hey, what?" Ke Long just recovered from his nervous expression and trembled.

"I'm not asking you, but Leticia."

Leticia raised her head in response, "What?"

"Why did you choose to cheat?"

Letitia was exposed, but she didn't try to hide it at all. Instead, she asked very frankly: "You know I cheated, why didn't you expose it?"

"Of course it's because I'm curious. To be honest, I didn't have any doubts about the first two losses because I was convinced from the bottom of my heart that you wouldn't use cheating tactics in such a small game - after all, You never panic."

"Because this is something within the rules. Isn't it natural to use the rules reasonably to achieve victory?" Leticia spread her hands cutely, "And you were the one who cheated first."

"Eh eh eh?!"

Ke Long yelled in surprise and glanced back and forth at the two of them: "Cheating? Did you two cheat?"

She had always thought that Cheng Rang, who looked so angry, was just playing around, and the only one doing the trick was Leticia, who was winking at her.

"Of course!" Cheng Rang admitted equally generously, "At the moment when the dice were put into the dice cup, without Leticia's interference, you would not have been able to win."

Leticia pinched the snack and put it into her mouth, chewed and swallowed it slowly, "The trick is cheating, this is what he uses. Even though he shook the dice cup randomly when he picked it up, it can be shaken out. It's up to him to decide what points he wants. The dice cup that determines the points from the beginning should not be in the hands of one of the players, you have to remember this."

As if she found the explanation cumbersome and lengthy, Leticia directly motioned to Cheng Rang to demonstrate again.

This time, the opaque lid was replaced by a transparent glass lid so that Kelong and Ai Xueer could see more clearly.

He started shaking the dice cup again, and the three dice rolled rapidly and randomly in it. Cheng Rang said at this time: "Kelong, choose a number from 3 to 18 that you like?"

"Eh... let me choose? Then, 9 o'clock?" She nodded her lips and gave a number uncertainly.

Snapped!

As soon as Ke Long finished speaking, Cheng Rang slapped the dice cup on the table. After the seemingly random rolling of the dice stopped, three 3-point dice faced up, which was exactly nine o'clock.

"That's amazing!" Ke Long stood up in surprise, while Ai Xueer stood beside her with wide eyes and clapped her hands excitedly.

"If you are still in the game now, I should have asked you to guess the size, right?"

"Yes..."

Cheng Rang asked Ke Long with a smile: "So now that you know the number in the dice cup, how would you guess the high or low?"

"Needless to say, of course I guess the leopard!"

"Hoho, you're so smart. I thought you were going to guess a little bit, Kelong."

"Don't think of me as an idiot who knows nothing! The rules of the game are to kill three identical leopards, big or small. If you guess the big one or the small one, you will lose." Ke Long was not fooled by this little verbal trap and proudly said He puffed up his chest and said, "I am now the leader of Lucia Kingdom who leads everyone, don't underestimate me!"

"Yes~ Your Lady Queen!" Cheng Rang said

Bowing like a minister.

This made Kelon blush in embarrassment. She hurriedly waved her hands and said, "Stop making such jokes, I'm so shy!"

"Haha." Cheng Rang laughed twice and motioned for Leticia to take action.

"Then it's time to open the lid."

"It doesn't matter whether the transparent lid can be opened or not..."

"Well, I can't say for sure."

The moment the lid was opened by Cheng Rang, Ke Long, who was staring at the three dice closely, felt that his eyes looked like a blur. He blinked and looked again, and the dice that were clearly 9 o'clock just now turned into 2+3+3. A little bit.

"what happened!?"

In fact, even if Leticia cheated under Kelon's nose, she would not be able to detect anything wrong. Although she witnessed the process and result of the points changing from 9 to 8 under the transparent cover, she could not point it out at all. Who is it and what method was used to cheat?

"Ten covenants No. 8: If there is any improper behavior in the game, it will be regarded as defeat once it is exposed." Cheng Rang put down the lid in his hand, "In other words, even if it is such an obvious cheating now, if you can't point it out that we use What kind of cheating method is there? This is also a victory for reasonableness and compliance.”

"Because the cheating method is perfect and no flaws are exposed, it is not considered [exposed]." Letitia added on the side.

Kelon is a human being and cannot sense the existence of elves and magic, but the result would be the same even if he were a forest elf. Because Leticia didn't use elves at all.

If I insist that you are just blind, but you can't produce evidence to prove that I cheated, then this game is still my victory.

This was just a game between friends, but Cheng Rang's game suddenly made Ke Long realize how much risk Rick and Hubie took to fight when they were playing games with other races.

"The so-called games are not necessarily fair. Technology and luck sometimes cannot represent everything, Kelong."

Looking at the stunned Ke Long, Cheng Rang reminded: "You now hold the chess game of race, and have the leadership to determine the survival of the entire human race, so this showdown is to tell you, never be in a situation where you are not sure. Under such circumstances, accept any game that other races initiate against you. No matter how tempting the bet is, if you can't get it, you just can't get it..."

"Because from the beginning of your acceptance of the game, the outcome is often already doomed."

Only three short years have passed since the end of the war. Even now, individuals of many races have not even played a game of swearing to the covenant. This time, Kelong was informed of these things that may happen in the future in advance, so that humans can be more stable. To survive in this land after change.

"Although it's just a game, it's no joke."

The so-called [war] and [plunder] are just changed and continued.

.....

In the territory of the forest elves, Rick and Hubby held hands with each other when they arrived. The person who appeared in front of them was Xin Ke Nier, who had played chess with Rick as a "ghost" before. Balian.

"Ah la la, welcome you two, leaders of the human species (Immunity), or should I call you [Mr. Ghost]?"

As soon as they met, the smell of gunpowder in the elf's mouth was overwhelming, but Rick was 100% sure that she was deceiving.

"Do you mean that I am going to die here today? Unfortunately, according to the provisions of the covenant, all killings are prohibited."

Feeling the tight warmth in his hand, Rick raised the corners of his mouth confidently.

"A game where you risk your life can still make me kill you, bug."

"Of course I won't accept it, idiot." Rick taunted wildly.

"It's a long way from making me lose my mind with rage."

"I'm here by invitation, Miss Elf. It's our first time meeting you. Please allow me to introduce myself."

Xink snorted coldly, raised his chin as if by default, and looked down at Rick and Hubby with arrogant eyes.

"Many people now know that a machine-like species is mixed with humans. A guy who can only imitate is with the lowest race. I'm afraid he can only imitate despicable things like clowns."

"...Are you jealous of Hubie? Because you can't feel the treasure that Hubie has. Hubie loves Rick." The mechanical device was unabashedly exposed, with a tailored skirt and a small shirt. After making Hubie look extra cute, she put her hand on her chest and tilted her head.

There is no need to hide one's race anymore. Hubi is now recognized and loved by all human beings.

Xinke gritted her teeth. She knew that even if she denied it now, she was just trying to regain her face. The more nonsense she talked to these guys, the more embarrassing she would become.

"Let the game begin. The bets have been set in advance, haven't they?" Zink said nothing, turned and walked towards the interior of the bud-like building.

The bet is the books and knowledge possessed by the forest elves. This valuable knowledge about the environment, gardening, and farming is the indispensable cornerstone of the Lucia Kingdom's road to self-sufficiency in the future.

It even includes things like how to change the properties of soil. As long as Hubi masters that kind of knowledge, it will greatly promote the development of the human species.

Chapter 28: Offer Kelong’s integrity as a sacrifice!

A familiar chessboard is placed on the table, with black and white chess pieces neatly arranged.

Rick holds Hubby in his arms

The small body sat on the same chair, and the two of them faced Xinke Nirvalen in front of them.

Although I was very reluctant to lose last time, it is different now.

Rick is not fighting alone.

With a wanton smile on his lips, he placed the crystal-transparent racial chess piece [King] on his chess board.

"Sa...the game begins!"

This time, he also cannot lose and will not lose.

It’s impossible to lose!

The three people looked at each other as if there were sparks in their eyes. The three of them slowly raised their hands, palms facing outward.

"Swear to the covenant!"

...

The howling wind passed by their ears, and with the dull sound of hitting the soil, Rick and Hubby landed again.

Jumping out of Hubie's arms skillfully, Rick raised the goggles to his forehead, looked at the red flag flying on the top of the white tower in front of him and said solemnly: "I'm finally back..."

Both of them were empty-handed, but their minds were already filled with precious trophies - the knowledge they had won from the elves.

As soon as he entered the city, Rick felt the difference after returning from this month's expedition.

"Hubby, have you ever felt that... the buildings in the city seem to be much more prosperous?"

"....Well, the degree of change has reached 32%."

"It's still so accurate." Rick rubbed Hubie's hair lovingly, and the two of them walked side by side.

The moment someone discovered that they were back, the streets were immediately filled with varying degrees of excitement, because people knew that Rick and Master Hubie had returned triumphantly.

"Master Rick is back!"

Being surrounded by crowds and basically accustomed to such a scene, Rick calmly dealt with the enthusiastic people and took various gifts and food from their hands.

Anyway, most of these will be sent back later. After pushing and rejecting them, in the end, they will be given to themselves. It is easier to accept them all.

His arms were stuffed full of things, and he obviously went out empty-handed and came back empty-handed, but everyone's trust in him was obviously the most precious thing.

"Hey, I remember there are still many unfinished residential buildings in the west. Why are there fireworks now?"

Rick looked to the west across the rooftop. Even if he could rely on supplies won through games, people still had to do part of the city construction themselves.

A year ago, the newly expanded residential buildings in the West District were only small, but now smoke representing daily life is rising from there.

The smell of fireworks and the food in his arms reminded Rick that it was already lunch time, but he still couldn't bear his curiosity and was ready to go take a look with Hubby.

Could it be said that there are other people who have launched games against other races and succeeded?

This is a big event!

When I came to the West District, I found brand new houses and people who had already moved in. All the temporary tents that had been set up before had been demolished.

"Excuse me, when was this place built?"

I randomly asked a passerby to ask. After seeing clearly that the person holding him was Rick, the passerby was surprised for a moment, and then said seriously: "Back to Mr. Rick, the new city was built two days ago."
