Chapter 705: Soldiers Rise to Rebellion (Please Vote for the Big Chapter)

The night wind blew over the cold chessboard, and also across the cheeks of the players on both sides of the chessboard.

The world seemed to be silent at this moment, with only the twisted lines of the sky still rising and falling calmly.

The silence was very short, but also seemed very long, just like the wind in the silent night, sudden and long.

Virunte stared at the chessboard in front of him, at the black rook, and at the 'opponent' in front of him.

In the end, he did not move the pieces on the chessboard, nor did he respond to He Ao's 'general'. He just raised his head, glanced at the twisted lines in the sky, and then asked softly,

"I'm a little curious, where were you hiding just now?"

There are three altars, one in the west city, one in the city center, and one in the south of the south city. All three altars are real altars and can be used for ceremonies. When performing a ceremony, just choose one of them.

Before the ceremony began, Virente made complete ritual arrangements on all three altars, but only he knew the altar he ultimately chose to actually hold the ceremony.

As long as those who try to disrupt the ceremony make a mistake in judgment and go to the wrong altar, it is basically impossible to get to the altar where the ceremony is actually held before the ceremony is completed.

This in itself is a suspicious formation designed by Valente.

On the opposite side, He Ao's cracking method is very simple. He is probably always very close to the three altars, and then arranges two teams to explore two of the three altars respectively, so that they can quickly determine which one is the real one. of the altar.

Once determined, you can rush to the real altar as quickly as possible.

The best place to hide is actually an area equidistant from three points, which is the center of the circumcircle of the triangle formed by these three points.

The problem is that Virente had anticipated this situation, so he actually arranged manpower at the best location and along the route.

If He Ao had been hiding in the best position, someone should have come to report the news long ago, but the final result was that he did not receive the notification.

Either all the people in the ambush were killed, or...

Thinking of this, Valente paused and continued to smile, "You are not at the same distance from the three altars? Why not choose the best location? Even a location nearby can make you faster. Come here and stop me faster."

"If I choose the best location, and you are not in this central park, but in the Evolution or the Pollution Cleanup Department, what will happen if people who go to explore meet you?"

"will die."

Vironte smiled calmly.

The same distance actually means the same distance. Neither Si Enji nor Skate can resist the power of Class B.

Being in the best position allowed He Ao to reach Central Park faster, but it also made him lose his ability to rescue.

Therefore, the location he had been in before was actually closer to the Pollution Cleanup Department. After all, the Pollution Cleanup Department had the strongest defense, and Jia Qian was also there, followed by the Evolution Headquarters, and Central Park was the farthest place from him.

With the help of the 'Shadow Fang' left by the Shadow Dog, he can pass through the shadows and have a stronger movement speed.

Therefore, Jia Qian and Si Enji are both within He Ao's support range. Once they are in danger, He Ao can appear in time.

He also made specific and detailed arrangements for different specific situations.

And because of the speed bonus, he was able to get to the Central Park in time after verifying that those two places were not real altars.

Of course, the reason why he made this choice was also related to his prediction of the arrangements that Vironte might leave behind.

Valente anticipated that he might appear in the center, and he anticipated Valente's anticipation.

"Clever and effective arrangement,"

After He Ao asked the question, Virunte had actually figured out He Ao's operation. He smiled and said, "You did win this step. You guessed my operation correctly, but I failed." You guessed it.”

Having said this, he paused and said with a smile, "It seems that this is the reason why you must 'die'."

It turns out that He Ao is in the light and Virunte is in the dark.

All of Ho's actions are under the watchful eye of Valente.

Especially after Ho Ao fought to death Driss, he could almost predict that he would become the person that Virunt paid the most attention to.

Standing under such a bright spotlight, no matter what he does, he will be discovered by Valente and targeted.

After He Ao's "suspended death", the relationship between light and darkness changed, becoming Virente in the light and He Ao in the dark.

In this case, Valente would not take Heao's situation into special consideration when planning.

Just like Virente's 'ambush' at the best position between the three altars this time, when he set up this ambush, he did not have a specific target in mind. In fact, it was a random 'hidden move' based on his own logic. '.

And He Ao, who was in the dark, could clearly consider this hidden move, and then avoid it, catching Valente by surprise.

"I have to say," Valente stared at the chessboard in front of him, "your move to fake death is indeed a wonderful move, a move that turns death into life."

He raised his head and looked at He Ao, "So for this move, did you suddenly have a flash of inspiration during the battle with Driss, or did you have a plan in advance?"

"What do you think?"

And He Ao just looked at him with a smile.

In fact, the matter of 'suspended death' must be viewed from two perspectives: life and death.

From a life point of view, what would happen if Ho Ao ‘didn’t die’ in the battle in Dris?

Judging from the way Velente works step by step, if the 'Sito' who can kill Driss does not 'die', Velente will not feel at ease, nor can he start the ceremony with confidence.

So he will definitely try his best to kill 'Sito'.

And if Valente doesn't start the ritual and targets 'Sito', he won't take action against Crote and Dahn, and will even win over them. After all, as long as he doesn't engage in the evil god ritual, these two are very important. I am happy to cooperate with QJT Group.

Then He Ao will face the siege of the three B-class people in the city and the super consortium Kjet Group that controls the entire city.

Even if he escapes from such a siege, there is a high probability that Velente will call on the power of the Kjet Group and find ways to invite strong people from other places.

Then the difficulty of this copy mission will increase infinitely.

Moreover, the incident will also involve people around He Ao, whether it is Yin Xiya, Jia Qian, or even Si Enji. As long as Virunte wants to investigate, their identities will be dug out and used as a means to deal with He Ao later.

Even He Ao could not guarantee that they would not die under such pressure.

Therefore, due to emotions and reasons, ‘Sito’ must ‘die together’ with Driss.

As long as Sito exists, there will be no conflict between the forces of Virunte and Mayor Crote. Velente will mix all the forces together and use them to deal with Sito.

And if Sito 'dies'.

In the absence of external enemies, the sharp conflicts that have always existed within the Valente group will erupt.

Valente wants to hold a ceremony, but Crote, who has all the power from the city of Saint-Jon, will not accept it.

Although Crotter is bad, he is not a loser. He has his own methods and ideas.

As long as Valente doesn't overturn the table and remains within the rules, he can't completely solve Crote's obstruction.

In fact, in a sense, Krote is also one of the ‘legacies’ left by former Mayor Snava.

Because of Snava's power, the Kjet Group can only find a strong and capable ally, not a puppet, to deal with Snava.

And this ally will naturally become a powerful being after dealing with Snava.

In fact, as early as when he learned about the entire process of Snava's success and failure from Si Enzi, Heao realized that this mayor was not an easy person.

It is difficult for a person like Crotter to gain power by betraying his original allies. It is difficult for him to fully gain the trust of the Kjet Group. Theoretically speaking, at most, he can be mayor for one term, and then he will be kicked off and given money. The house supports you, but it doesn't give you power.

However, Croat was successfully re-elected and served as mayor for eight years without being replaced by Kjet's puppet.

This situation may be barely reasonable in other cities. After all, for the consortium, even if the mayor has a strong desire for power, it can be tolerated as long as they can cooperate well and make money.

But for Vironte, who had contact with the Winding Hill and was preparing for the sacrifice ceremony, the existence of such a capable and ambitious mayor was a stumbling block for him, and he must replace him.

Just like in Rock City, Yin Lian, who was preparing for the Death Sacrifice Ceremony, directly controlled the puppet to run for election and became the mayor herself.

Therefore, there is an abnormality in the fact that Crotter can be re-elected as mayor.

This means that Croat has other allies in this city, and there are not many people in this city who can fight against the Kjet Group.

Moreover, this ally can also make Villante, a Class B, feel wary and not dare to replace the mayor easily, so there is only one candidate,

City defense officer Dan.

Although this B-class city defense officer also cooperates with the Kjet Group, his private alliance with Croat is probably even stronger. They guarantee each other's status and that each other can make money smoothly.

It can actually be seen from the interview program with Crote and Virent that was broadcast before.

Although Crote has always followed Velonte's words, he has always had his own initiative and is not a complete lackey of the Kjet Group.

So Heao was actually very aware of the contradictions within the Virunte group. He was very aware of it before he went to Driss's 'banquet'.

He even gave a detailed explanation of Clote's general character to Sienzi, who had a half-master-disciple relationship with him.

"You are one of the best chess players I have met in all these years."

Virunte naturally understood the meaning of He Ao's words. In fact, he had made this speculation before, but he just couldn't believe it.

Howo looked at Valente.

In fact, the reason why he was able to 'fake death' so smoothly was because Driss was too strong.

In the battle that night, if he hadn't had 'Easy Thought', a little resistance to pollution, and the ability to find weaknesses through his spiritual consciousness, he might have actually died there.

But even so, he was almost really close to death at that time, and his injuries were all real.

And Virente knew how powerful Dris was.

Judging from the strength shown in the battle, Driss can definitely fight two B-levels by himself.

If Driss does not die, even if the mercenaries of the Nolanka Group enter the city tonight, and Fez will come here, even if there is another B-class, they will not be able to stop Valente's plan.

It is precisely because Driss is so powerful that it is beyond imagination, so it is easy to accept that "Sito" and Driss will die together.

Even for a step-by-step 'chess player' like Valente, it would be difficult for him to go beyond his own knowledge and imagine that a 'Sito' who appeared out of nowhere could kill the prestigious De Rui without paying any price. Here comes this matter.

This is beyond recognition.

Therefore, it is in line with everyone's expectations that Sito and Driss died together.

After all, Driss's body cannot be faked. It is impossible for 'Sito' to kill Driss without any injuries. Even if it was a trick, he must have been seriously injured or even died.

Although the fact is that He Ao was seriously injured and on the verge of death.

He Ao just needs to take advantage of this situation, push the facts forward a little bit, and make it look like they will die together.

In fact, he did not let anyone announce that "Xito is dead" during the whole process, but only asked Yin Xiya to make arrangements to escape with Jia Qian.

And when this incident fell into the eyes of those who were interested, it was natural to deduce the "circle of events" that "Xito and Derris died together, and Yin Xiya lost the help of a strong man and had to escape."

Of course, Virent may not fully believe that Ho Ao is dead, but from these signals sent by He Ao, he will also think that even if He Ao does not die, he is seriously injured and unable to do anything.

This in itself was in line with his expectations.

What can deceive smart people is never the lie itself, but their 'own judgment'.

And as He Ao faked his death, he withdrew from the main stage.

The pent-up conflict between Valente and Clote also broke out completely.

After Vironte lost his obvious enemy and decided to hold the ceremony, there was no use for the obstructive Crot, who would definitely overturn the table.

He Ao considered that Virente would overturn the table, so he asked Sienzi to contact Krote in advance, but Velente killed Krote directly and decisively, which was somewhat beyond his expectation.

Although Krote was not stupid, he also guessed that Virente might flip the table through Sienzi's reminder, so he made preparations in advance and gave the key card to his confidant.

However, he probably didn't expect that Valente would directly kill him, so he kept delaying to see if he could obtain greater benefits.

Although Crotter was smart and keenly aware of the changes in the situation, his greed ultimately determined his fate.

Although Vironte is careful in what he does, he will never be lenient when it is time to be ruthless.

Once Croat died, it would be impossible for Dahn to live.

This internal conflict ended with the complete victory of Vironte, who took full control of the city of Saint-Jean.

And the B-class that He Ao had to face had just changed from three to two.

This is why Virunte marveled that Heao's move was a 'wonderful move'.

Of course, given Valente's character, what he is saying now is actually a bit too much.

He Ao stared at the old man in front of him and said calmly, "If you are waiting for Bran to come for support, then you don't have to wait, he won't come."

Hearing this, Virunte was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Is it the Nolanka Group? They actually chose to break through from the west gate? Their target was actually Bran from the beginning? If they want to launch a 'surprise attack' , there won’t be too many troops to break through the city gate, it seems that Croat gave you the authority key?”

Having said this, he finally took a deep breath and looked back at the black rook on the chessboard, "You used a few insignificant soldiers to vitalize the entire chess game. People like you shouldn't be unknown. ”

"yes,"

He Ao calmly looked at the city in the night, "A soldier can become a queen when he reaches the bottom line, right?"

Pawn promotion is a special rule in chess. When one's own pawn reaches the opponent's bottom line, it can be promoted to any kind of chess piece except pawns and kings, including the strongest queen.

Silent silence once again enveloped the cold space, leaving only the sound of rustling leaves.
