“Red Knight, take six steps forward and two steps to the left to defeat the enemy farmer.”
Heath’s solemn and solemn command rang out on the chessboard.
Following his voice, a knight sculpture in red armor on the chessboard suddenly began to move. With a series of powerful clanging sounds, the Knight sculpture took six steps forward in large strides. Then, it moved two steps to the left, and at this time, it arrived in front of an enemy farmer.
Clang!
The clanging sound of metal interweaving rang out.
The Knight pulled out the cross sword on his body and slashed at the farmer in front of him. With a loud bang, the farmer was blasted apart.
The two Apprentices could not help but feel their scalps go numb when they saw this scene. No one would want to see such a heavy slash on a person. ‘Fortunately, all Wizards have defensive magic…’ the two of them thought at the same time.
However, before they could be happy for long, Heath’s next words made their scalps go numb.
Standing at the edge of the square, Heath suddenly turned to the two of them and said, “Next, I will enter the chessboard and become a chess piece. Only in this way can I participate in this chessboard. If you also want to participate, you can also enter the chessboard.”
“But I need to remind you that there is an anti-magic array inside the chessboard, including for me. Once you enter it, you will lose your magic. You can only use the power represented by my chess piece.”
“What?” Nyssa and Carrette were shocked.
Magic was the foundation of a Wizard’s life. It was the basis of their livelihood. Once they lost their magic, they would be no different from ordinary people. With the power of ordinary people in such a chessboard…
Thinking of the heavy cut of the Knight sculpture, the two of them swallowed their saliva.
Heath said, “If you don’t want to go in, then wait for me here. It doesn’t matter.”
Nyssa was silent for a moment, then she gritted her teeth and said, “Wizard, I’ll go with you.”
Carrette frowned. “Nyssa, have you really thought it through…”
Nyssa said, “Carrette, this is probably the only chance we have to obtain the Heart of the Sea. You’ve seen the situation on Forest Island. We can’t even get up the vines, not to mention that there are powerful demonized creatures inside.”
Carrette said, “We can go to other small islands.”
Nyssa said sarcastically, “Don’t lie to yourself. No matter which small island it is, it is not something that Apprentices like us can easily pass the test for. And now, there is a Wizard who is willing to give us this opportunity. I don’t want to miss it.”
Carrette was silent for a moment. Finally, he gritted his teeth and took a step forward. “Wizard, I am willing to listen to your orders.”
Heath nodded. The game in front of them was not a standard chess game, but a remnant game. In the remnant game, every extra person who entered would mean an extra chess piece, and the odds of winning would naturally increase.
After getting two extra chess pieces, Heath said, “Nina.”
“Here.” Nina flew to Heath’s side.
Heath said, “You heard what I said just now. When you enter the game, listen to my arrangements.”
In The King’s War, a ghost was also considered a combat unit.
Nina said, “Yes, Master.”
In the end, Heath knelt down on the ground again. He clapped his hands in the middle and pressed them on the ground. A hexagram magic circle suddenly lit up on the ground. Then, a cloud of smoke rose from the top of the magic circle. Following that, the tall and big stone man was teleported over by Heath.
Magic pets were also a combat unit.
Including himself, he now had five controllable chess pieces. This had already reached the maximum number of units that could be accommodated in this game, so Heath did not try to increase the number of units.
In a corner of the chessboard, there was a blank area. On the area, there were cross swords, tall Wizard hats, Wizard staffs, rakes, and all kinds of equipment that represented one’s identity.
Heath walked into the area and picked up a rake that represented a farmer. Then, he instructed Nyssa and Carrette, “Carrette, go and get that cross sword. That is the identity of a Knight. Nyssa, take that red hat and wand. That is the identity of a Fire Wizard. Nina, take the death soul charm. That is your identity as a ghost.”
“Okay.”
“Yes, Sir Wizard.”
After making the arrangements, Heath took the rake and walked forward, stopping in front of the opponent’s Knight.
The farmer was the weakest chess piece on the chessboard, and he was also the favorite target of Knights. Not long after Heath stopped, the opponent’s Knight immediately moved toward him with murderous intent.
Heath had calculated the distance from the beginning. When the enemy Knight moved two steps away from him, the maximum number of steps he could move would come to an end. He could only wait until the next round for the Knight to continue moving forward.
However, Heath obviously would not give him this opportunity.
“Nyssa, take six steps forward and wave your spell to destroy this Knight.”
“Yes.”
Under Heath’s command, Fire Wizard Nyssa took six steps forward. She then waved her spell and naturally summoned a fireball to fly towards the Knight. Heath had carefully calculated the distance to hit the Knight. With a boom, the enemy Knight exploded into a pile of rubble.
With the success of the first round, the tension in everyone’s hearts subsided a lot. They obediently listened to Heath’s arrangements and began to understand the game.
“Nyssa, take two steps to the left and cast a spell…”
“Carrette, take six steps forward and kill that farmer…”
“Nina, take two steps forward and scare that noble…”
“Attack! Attack!” Under Heath’s command, the attacks on the chessboard were carried out quickly. With every command from Heath, there were basically pieces that were ‘eaten’.
However, this did not mean that Heath and the others had the upper hand. On the contrary, they had been falling behind since the start of the game.
This was because the game was not fair. The white side that they represented was already on the verge of collapse from the start, while the black side’s pieces were basically still retained. Even if Heath and the others joined the white side, it would still be difficult to make up for the huge gap in the pieces.
With such a huge gap in strength, they had been besieged from the beginning. As time went by, their chess pieces became fewer and fewer.
Nyssa and Carrette were not good at chess, but they could see that their situation was not good. Their eyes kept glancing at Heath, as if they were looking for an answer.
Finally, Nyssa could not help but ask, “Sir Wizard, can we win if we continue like this?”
However, Heath’s answer puzzled her.
Heath said…
