Chapter 85 The Birth of Chess
On the lawn outside the castle.
Originally, this was the place where the guards who were injured in the fight against the deep blue giant tiger recuperated.
But now that the injuries have basically healed, it is free. Sometimes Antova and Fulong will come down to sit and chat.
And now, large groups of people are scattered around, and in the middle sit Antova, Fulong, Count Akeli and Princess Lika.
Fulong is holding a furry blue little tiger, and Antova is holding a little cheetah.
Lika is teasing the two, laughing very happily, and Akeli seems to be very serious, chatting all the time, so as not to let the atmosphere cool down.
As for the cat man, Lin Ke didn't see it, and didn't know if he went back.
Originally, Lin Wei could come back in a short while by playing chess, but who knew that it took nearly an hour after a sudden whim. Fortunately, Antova is still quite experienced in dealing with people.
"Little Lin Ke, you're back!" Fulong saw Lin Ke flying back with Aof and waved.
"Mother!" Lin Ke also waved.
After landing, he walked over and took out the chess in his arms.
Lika and Akli also came over and looked at Lin Ke curiously.
They also knew how smart Lin Ke was since childhood in the conversation with Antowa just now.
Of course, Akli knew all this information and had inquired about it before coming.
Lika didn't care. She felt that no matter how smart Lin Ke was, he would definitely not be as smart as her.
"I'll teach you to play a new game." Lin Ke put the chess in his arms on a small wooden table next to him, and then arranged the chess pieces one by one.
"Great, what game!" Fulong's eyes were full of light.
On the other side, Auf handed the chess to Billy, and Billy also learned to arrange it like Lin Ke.
After arranging it, Lin Ke said: "I'll teach you how to play. First, ensure the survival of the two kings..."
Several people listened carefully to Lin Ke's teaching, and Fulong and Lika listened particularly seriously.
The two were very serious about playing.
"...So, the king cannot fight against the king. If they fight, they can kill directly. There are probably so many rules. Who wants to play a game with me?" Lin Ke said with a smile.
After listening, the interest in everyone's eyes became stronger and stronger.
Count Acker praised: "It's a great little game. It's much more fun than the stupid game of guessing fish man."
After hearing this, Fulong's face flashed an unnatural look.
Acker didn't notice it, but continued: "Moreover, the meaning of these chess pieces is very profound... It seems that the Kingdom of Gula will have an outstanding commander in the future." He seemed to have a hint.
And Auf's focus was on other aspects: "If you have already taken office as a [Military Strategist], maybe you can get some feedback now." Auf knew that this game was created by Lin Ke.
Lin Ke was stunned.
He didn't expect this.
However...
If he created a professional [Chess Player] and created a few more chess games, wouldn't the feedback be overwhelming?
But it was just a thought. He had too many things in his mind. There was no need to spread the stall too wide. Let others do it in the next five months.
"I want to play, I want to play!" Princess Lika didn't care so much. She just wanted to play chess excitedly.
Even Antowa beside her was very interested.
"How about this, Mr. Akeli and I will have a chat and show it to everyone." Lin Ke smiled and gestured to Akeli.
Akeli was also very easy-going and naturally agreed.
Lin Ke set up the chessboard and then gestured to Akeli to move first.
Akeli touched his two small mustaches, thought about the way the Emperor Wumian of the Gula Kingdom fought a war, and said: "Well, when the two armies confront each other, the king goes first."
Then, he moved the king forward one step.
Lin Ke laughed secretly, then picked up the crossbow equivalent to a cannon and flew directly under the middle soldier.
Akeli raised his eyebrows and deduced in his mind in an instant. He found that the next step might be to checkmate, and frowned and moved the king to the left.
Seeing that Akeli was obsessed with trusting the king, Lin Ke could not help but remind him: "When the two sides are equal in strength, all arms should be used reasonably."
As he said that, Lin Ke shot a crossbow arrow and killed a soldier.
Seeing Lin Ke kill the soldier, Akeli frowned and thought, and then began to move the crossbow.
And Lin Ke started to deploy two chariots in a blink of an eye.
Although Lin Ke's chess skills can only be considered average, at least the old man in the community in his previous life was better at chess than him.
But he is quite good at dealing with novices.
In a few moves, Akeli was killed by Lin Ke's magic representing the horse and two cannons.
Akeli frowned, and felt a sense of powerlessness as he looked at the chessboard. He couldn't help but say, "This is unreasonable... Emperor Wumian can kill all of them alone..."
"No, this is not Emperor Wumian, this is just two mortal kings in one plane." Lin Ke smiled and shook his head, saying, "This is a game, Mr. Akeli."
Akeli took a deep breath and couldn't help but say, "Come on! Come on, come on!"
And Lin Ke made a gesture, got up from the chair, and looked around: "Do you all know how to play?"
"Yes!" Lika answered excitedly, and pushed Akeli away with her buttocks and sat down: "Come on, come on, let's play a game."
The thirteenth-level, powerful, famous, and famous Count Akeli, who was spread across the entire continent, was pushed away by a girl.
Lin Ke swore that if Akeli didn't want to, even if the owner of that butt was a level 10 mammoth, he would definitely not be able to squeeze him out.
However, seeing Akeli's smiling face, he didn't say anything, but pointed to the other two chessboards: "Mother, Auntie, Teacher, Mr. Akeli, do you want to play a few games?"
Antova and Fulong had long wanted to try it themselves.
Especially Aof, who had already noticed the ever-changing moves in this game, and each move could be extended to various moves...
This is simply a weapon for training mental strength!
"It's just right, are you willing to play a game with me?" Akeli felt that he had gained something from the game with Lin Ke just now, and immediately took a look at Aof on the side.
Aof nodded gently, not smiling.
So the two went to play chess next to them.
And Antova could only accompany Fulong naturally.
Lin Ke's opponent changed to Princess Lika. Although Princess Lika was very cute and delicate, he didn't feel anything.
In terms of age, he looked at Lika like a daughter, without any ripples.
"I'll go first!" Lika didn't care that Lin Ke was looking at her, and she rushed to attack first.
The chess pieces were not colored, but Lin Ke drew circles outside the characters to distinguish them, and the ones without circles went first.
However, Lika obviously thought that she had learned the essence of Lin Ke. She thought that Lin Ke had no way out after the first step of flying crossbow.
Lin Ke smiled and flew the elephant.
Lika's eyes widened immediately and she began to deduce the next step...
In this way, the afternoon passed quickly. Not to mention the two guests Lika and Akli, even Fulong, Antowa and Auf found it very interesting. Even Billy and John, the butler, wanted to try it.
Lin Ke knew that this was the charm of chess, or the game of live duel.
In the previous life, when games such as King of Glory were popular, children naturally liked to play games more.
But in Naseng, where entertainment was scarce, chess was just like the King of Glory and League of Legends in the previous life, full of entertainment and freshness.
The afternoon passed like this.
"It's getting late, you two, why don't you join us for dinner?"
