Chapter 425: Choosing a Son
As the huge creature on the opposite side of the lake gradually rose from the water, the lake level also dropped rapidly. Soon, the chessboard with only a top exposed before was completely displayed in front of us. At this time, the huge creature opposite Creatures have also appeared in front of us.
In fact, Kristina and I have already noticed the existence of this creature in front of us, because when we were on the periphery of the island, we had already locked onto the seven powerful magic waves on the island, which means that there should be seven here. Powerful creatures. Although this creature rising from the lake in front of us is the first time we have seen it, in fact, we have been staring at him for a long time in the demon.
This creature that emerged from the water is very huge. Even if we do not take into account the fact that we have become smaller, but from the perspective of a normal person, it is definitely a giant. However, despite its astonishing size, the appearance of this creature is not surprising. In fact, everyone should have seen this creature, because it is clearly a large crocodile. Of course, crocodiles in nature will definitely not develop such virtues, because the crocodile in front of you is not only comparable in size to a giant dragon, but also has a characteristic that its body structure seems to have changed into a humanoid shape. At least its limbs are significantly larger than those of a normal crocodile. His limbs are much longer, and his front paws obviously have the function of hands, not just for crawling.
When the big crocodile stood up completely from the water, the Queen of Lilliput, who had been following us, took the initiative to walk over, and then with the help of amplification magic, she loudly said: "Great guardian, we are a race of giants. Descendants, in accordance with the ancient covenant, accompany outsiders to complete the death level."
"Hahahaha, I'm really lucky today! Is there a second wave of people coming to participate in the game so quickly? So, let's start the chess game."
"Wait a minute." I originally thought that the other party would give some explanations and arrangements, but I didn't expect that this guy would start the game when he came up. Although we had learned a lot of rules and the like from the Queen of Lilliput along the way, we were not very familiar with it yet. comprehensive. In this case, we obviously suffer a loss when playing chess with the opponent!
"Do you have anything else?" The big crocodile turned to me and asked, his voice sounded very polite. This is surprising.
"Such a respected guardian. We just briefly learned about the rules of this chess game on the way here. We don't fully understand the specific detailed rules, so can we learn the rules a little bit before we start? "
"This game of chess actually started the moment you landed on the island. As for the rules of the game... According to the ancient covenant, I have no obligation to explain the rules to you, and as soon as you arrive here, you should start the chess game immediately. .As for the problem of not understanding the rules...that is actually part of the test. However, you were able to actively communicate on the way here and guessed a chess game at this time, and also asked about some of the rules and content of the chess game. This in itself is already It’s an advantage. You know, before you, only three teams knew the rules in advance.”
"If this is part of the rules, then we can abide by it. Okay, let's start the chess game." With the energy intensity of the big crocodile in front of me, when Kristina and I were completely victorious, we could easily defeat it by working together. Kill, but the problem is that the two of us currently have only 1% of our strength. If we fight against each other with this kind of strength, it will definitely be the result of being defeated in a second, and there is no way it will mean anything. So. Now that we have determined that we are invincible and they behave quite mildly, we naturally have to follow their rules obediently. Otherwise, if we anger the other party and the civil fight turns into a physical fight, that will not be good. .
"I am very satisfied with your attitude, so I will give you one piece of advice. Anyway, the covenant only says that I have no obligation to explain the rules, and it does not say that I cannot give tips." The big crocodile said with an unexpected smile: " Now listen up. I suggest that you choose to fight in person when you start the chess game. Okay. That's all the suggestions. It's up to you whether you listen or not. Now let's make a decision. Is it better to choose to let the giants fight on your behalf? Or do you go on your own? Depending on your number, each outsider needs at least one Giant warrior to replace you, but you can send up to three warriors to replace one of your quotas. If you join the battle yourself, you can no longer use Giant warriors. The warrior has taken this place. Now you have five minutes to decide who will play, and you can start to get on the chess board. When the time is up, I will also start the chess game if there are not enough people."
After hearing what the other party said, Kristina and I immediately looked at each other. In fact, we are both very confused now because we don't know whether we should listen to the big crocodile. The other party may really like what we said, so he gave reasonable suggestions based on his understanding of the rules. But on the other hand, if you think that the other party is deliberately trying to trick us in order to win... it seems to make sense. So we are very confused now, not knowing whether to listen to this suggestion or not.
After making eye contact with each other, we decided to adopt a safer method, which was to prevent those children from entering the chessboard directly. But Kristina, myself, and the eldest mother of the group will directly participate in the chess game. By doing this, we are showing to the big crocodile that we believe what he says. Otherwise, if we don't go to anyone, if someone sincerely gives us advice, wouldn't it in turn offend them? As for why everyone didn't enter the chessboard, this can be explained as the children are not good at fighting. Even if the big crocodile asks us later, we can easily explain it. That's why we let the group eldest mother, who now has no combat attributes at all, also participate in the chess game, because if she doesn't participate in the battle, it will be difficult to explain. Of course, it would be okay if the big crocodile deliberately tricked us. Kristina and I's combat effectiveness has not been completely sealed, so we actually have to exceed the combat effectiveness of three giant soldiers. Our direct participation in the battle will not reduce our combat effectiveness, but can greatly increase our combat effectiveness. As for the team leader's mother...if she is really tricked, the worst we can do is ask her to hide behind and not rush forward.
As soon as we picked the person we started getting on that chessboard.
Kristina and I, as well as the team leader's mother, went directly up. The remaining forty-one children needed at least forty-one giant warriors. Of course, more people could be sent, up to a maximum of one hundred and twenty-three. At the Queen's suggestion, we directly chose the maximum number of people to log in, which was one hundred and twenty-three Lilliputian warriors plus three of us players. Of course, not all the warriors from the Lilliput Kingdom were heavy armored infantry. There were only one hundred infantry among them. Among the remaining twenty-three, there were twenty mages and three archers. This configuration is said to have the highest winning rate. As we have no previous experience, we can only believe that the Queen of Lilliput will not make fun of her own life.
"Okay, we are all here, can we start?" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation...)
