Seeing that the player who appeared was Liu Rumian, Chen Lin's face suddenly turned ugly.
But it was just ugly, not alarming.
Before deciding to go to the Six Mysterious Sect, he pondered quietly in the fief for several days, and had already speculated on all the things that might happen after entering this place.
He also considered the scene before him.
Because this kind of situation is very common in the nightmare world.
It is not uncommon for the loser of a gambling game to accept the punishment on behalf of the winner, or even for the winner and loser to switch identities.
Chen Lin stared at Liu Rumian.
Obviously, the opponent will become a chess player, that is, he loses the chess game and is sealed by the rules and becomes a nightmare creature.
It's the same as the wandering puppets from Storybrooke.
"Miss Liu, do you need gold nightmare coins?"
After looking at it for a while, Chen Lin asked tentatively.
Liu Rumian did not respond.
She stretched out her hand numbly, took out a chess piece from the chess box, thought for a moment, and placed it on the chess board.
The chessboard vibrates and the chess game begins.
Chen Lin took a breath and concentrated on dealing with it.
Now that both sides are seated, it seems that the game of chess must be played to the end no matter what.
But what put him in a dilemma was whether he should win or lose.
If he wins, he will naturally complete the rule of winning three games in a row, and he can break through the space restrictions and enter the depths of the scene.
But Liu Rumian's fate may not be good.
Judging from the physical changes of the opponent in the outside world, after becoming a chess player and losing the chess game, even if he is not directly eliminated, he will be severely punished.
Every time you lose a game, your health will get worse.
So winning or losing in this game may be the last straw that breaks the camel's back.
It is not advisable to fail deliberately.
In that case, he must take the place of the other party and stay here as a player.
He also has no confidence that he can break away from the rules of the nightmare world.
The Cage Array is about to change. If he is trapped here for a hundred years, all his previous preparations will be in vain. He may even be monitored by the Cage Array and eliminated.
Chen Lin was thinking and making moves, deliberately slowing down.
But he soon discovered that even if he tried his best, it would not be easy to win this game.
It's not that Liu Rumian's chess skills are so strong, but the aura emanating from the chessboard is several times stronger than before. It no longer looks like a fantasy, it's just like a real fight on the battlefield.
Even after he failed to dodge and was hit, his body actually suffered substantial damage!
What frightened Chen Lin even more was that even his golden armor and star ring could not block this invisible attack.
This made him tired of dealing with it. He made several mistakes and soon fell into a disadvantage.
That does not work!
Chen Lin knew that if he continued like this, he would have to be left here, let alone rescuing Liu Rumian.
However, this chess game illusion seemed real, but in fact it was an illusion. He could not think of a way to break the game for a while.
While thinking about it, Chen Lin felt that the aura of the chessboard was strengthening again. As Liu Rumian's chess pieces fell, attacks in the fantasy world were overwhelming, and demons and monsters emerged one after another.
As he sat on the seat, his body was constantly bursting with blood, and it was coming from the inside out. Neither the golden armor nor the power of the inner star could play a defensive role.
This is a battlefield of artistic conception, which cannot be resolved by physical objects.
There was a lot of danger for a while.
At this critical moment, Chen Lin suddenly felt that the aura of the chessboard was inexplicably weak, and the offensive in the illusion also became sluggish.
He immediately seized the opportunity and used all possible means to escape from the illusory crisis.
"ah!"
At the same time, Liu Rumian on the opposite side let out a shrill scream.
Chen Lin looked over and his expression suddenly changed.
I saw that the opponent's originally decaying projection body was now becoming more and more dry, and all the seven orifices were flowing with dark blood, and the whole person was shrouded in the violent nightmare world atmosphere.
It seems to be torn into pieces.
This is not over yet.
In the blink of an eye, black hairs sprouted from the opponent's face, and tumors bulged out from the top of his head, exuding a foul odor.
It's actually about to mutate into a nightmare!
"How are you?"
Chen Lin hurriedly asked.
Seeing that the other party didn't speak, but had a look of pain and struggle on his face, he immediately spoke again.
"Put down the chess piece quickly, I have a solution!"
He has already seen that the reason why the opponent suddenly became like this is because the chess piece in his hand was always hanging, which exceeded the maximum length of time for the move.
The longer the delay, the faster the alienation, which is also a punishment mechanism.
The reason why the opponent did this was obviously to delay him so that he could better cope with the chess game.
It was precisely because of this that when he was almost unable to hold on in the illusion just now, the attack power of those monsters and ghosts became weaker.
Chen Lin felt an inexplicable emotion in his heart.
Apart from his wife and daughter, this was the first time someone risked his life to protect him. Liu Rumian definitely lived up to the word "friend". It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was extremely righteous.
"Luozi, don't worry about me, hurry up!"
Seeing that the other party was on the verge of a complete change, Chen Lin hurriedly urged him again.
Liu Rumian rolled her eyes and finally stopped insisting and dropped the chess piece on the chessboard.
As soon as the chess pieces fell, the strange aura on the chessboard erupted again, pulling Chen Lin into the illusion again.
And the intensity is several times stronger than before.
But this time Chen Lin was prepared and was not trapped anymore. He used the magical power of sky fire and cooperated with the star power to attack the chessboard.
Since the illusion cannot be resolved, then deal with the chessboard that created the illusion.
However, Chen Lin's expression immediately darkened.
The attacks of Star Power and Sky Fire, after hitting the chessboard, not only did not weaken the aura of the chessboard, but actually had the opposite effect.
The chessboard seemed to be half irritated, its strange aura surged, and the demons and monsters in the fantasy rushed towards him crazily.
Moreover, this strange aura can also interfere with his thinking, making him unable to think carefully and losing his judgment on the direction of the chess game.
Chen Lin sighed secretly.
Without hesitation, the death stare is immediately evoked.
This is all he has left to rely on.
The Soul-Destroying Finger has long been unable to keep up with the growth of his strength, and it has no effect at all in this golden scene.
The eyebrows are pale and the eyes appear.
A powerful force swept over the chessboard.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Lin was overjoyed.
After the chessboard was swept by the death gaze, there was a burst of fear, and then the strange aura receded like a tide.
He didn't pause, and he worked hard, his pale eyes flickering again, and he glanced at the chessboard.
"Buzz!"
The chessboard trembled.
After a buzzing sound, the strange aura dissipated into nothingness, and the illusion of fighting on the battlefield also collapsed.
At the same time, the power of the death gaze was completely consumed, and the pale eyeballs disappeared between the eyebrows.
Chen Lin felt relieved.
I didn’t expect that this chessboard really had a ‘weapon spirit’.
Also restrained by Death Gaze.
The spell that Niuniu gave him was so powerful that it saved him from fire and water several times.
Liu Rumian, who was opposite him, seemed to feel something as well, and a light flashed in his eyes.
But he immediately became dull and expressionless as he continued to move.
Without the interference of the illusion, Chen Lin had no pressure at all. With his mastery of chess skills, it was very easy to play against Liu Rumian.
However, he did not intend to win the opponent, but always maintained a back-and-forth situation in order to promote a draw.
This was the best way he could think of to handle it.
Otherwise, no matter who wins or loses, they will inevitably suffer.
His death gaze can weaken the weapon spirit of the chessboard, but does not affect the rules of the nightmare world.
The last chess piece fell, and the draw scene was finally generated as desired.
Chen Lin was on extreme alert.
Because he didn't know what the consequences of such an approach would be. Neither Luo Xing nor Qixuan Heavenly Girl had ever experienced such a thing.
In fact, if he hadn't suppressed the chessboard weapon spirit with his death gaze, the draw would not have been possible.
In this chess game, playing chess is just an appearance. The real battlefield is in the illusion generated by the chessboard, where you die or I die. There is absolutely no talk of playing chess.
After waiting for a long time, Chen Lin was surprised to find that there was no movement on the chessboard.
The chess pieces of both sides were quietly placed on it, neither disappearing nor showing any other changes.
Liu Rumian also became motionless, as if he was frozen.
"Can you hear me? If you hear me, just blink."
After a while, there was still no movement, so Chen Lin could only try to inquire.
He couldn't continue to be in a stalemate like this.
But Liu Rumian didn't respond.
He seemed to have completely lost his mind.
Chen Lin really didn't know what to do now.
After thinking for a while, he tentatively stretched out his hand and touched the chess pieces on the chessboard.
I touched them one by one, but still no reaction.
Then, his heart suddenly changed and he planned to leave his seat.
According to the rules, as soon as you leave your seat, the game is over, and you will see for yourself what the decision will be.
But before leaving his seat, Chen Lin suddenly thought of something. He looked at Liu Rumian, touched his storage ring, and took out a few gold nightmare coins.
It felt like there weren't many, so I took out a few more.
After thinking for a while, he simply took out a hundred of them, wrapped them with the power of the inner star, and put them all into Liu Rumian's sleeves.
If the rules here are normal nightmare style, then the bets for winning and losing are gold nightmare coins, and the exemption punishment method should be the same as the wandering puppet in Fairy Tale Town, which can be offset by gold nightmare coins.
If possible, one hundred nightmare coins would definitely be enough.
After doing this, Chen Lin slowly stood up.
He originally wanted to take the opportunity to take two chess pieces and keep them as media items, but after thinking about it, he gave up.
Because no matter whether you take the black stone or the white stone first, you may decide that the other side has lost the moment you pick it up, so it is better not to get into trouble.
As soon as his body left his seat, he saw the chessboard light up, and then the chess pieces on it began to fade.
But what surprised Chen Lin was that these chess pieces did not disappear, but all gathered together.
After a while of flashing, it turned into a black and white, one size larger crystal chess piece.
It's exactly the same as the media chess piece.
Chen Lin suddenly realized that this is where the media chess piece came from!
This time he did not hesitate and picked up the black and white chess pieces.
