Chapter 1568 Chess Piece

A mouthful of blood sprayed on the chessboard.

The black and white colors were suddenly covered up by scarlet, and the damaged chess pieces that were already scattered on the chessboard now looked like the remains of ruins.

"No!"

"I won't lose!"

The man operating the chess pieces roared.

Even if the face is hidden by the system, a timid person can still realize the ferocious and crazy look on the other person's face at this time.

The timid one stood up without hesitation.

He was ready to leave.

For him, who only lost three unruly skeletons, leaving was the best choice.

otherwise……

Looking at the scarlet chessboard, the timid person shrank his neck.

He didn't want to risk his life.

"This ends our collaboration."

"The Demon of Fire is not something I can provoke."

"I hope... we can have other cooperation next time."

The timid one paused and then continued.

But in their hearts, the timid people never thought about the next cooperation.

Because he didn't think the other party could survive in the hands of the demon of fire.

After saying these words, the timid person turned around and left.

The room filled with shadows instantly engulfed his figure.

"The cooperation is over?"

"You never know that once you're in this castle, you can't have closure."

The person controlling the chess piece completely ignored the blood at the corner of his mouth. As he spoke, the other person raised his right hand and pinched it sharply.

puff!

Like the sound of a watermelon falling to the ground, a scream passed quickly, and a ball of flesh and blood floated over and landed on the chessboard.

"Sacrifice!"

"I want to sacrifice this flesh and blood!"

"I'm going to turn the tables!"

The other party's voice echoed in the shadow-filled room, and the blood-stained chessboard immediately glowed with a faint light.

Such light penetrates flesh and blood.

No!

To be more precise, it shrouded the flesh and blood. Under the shroud of light, the flesh and blood quickly disappeared, as if it had been swallowed up.

And when the last bit of flesh and blood disappeared from the chessboard, a blood-red chess piece appeared in the opponent's hand.

"Now!"

"Let me reverse it together!"

As he said that, the opponent slammed the blood-red chess piece on the chessboard.

Snapped!

The excessive force caused the chess piece to make a crisp sound after it came into contact with the chessboard.

but……

Nothing happened.

The blood-red chess piece stood motionless in the center of the chessboard.

"how so?"

The person manipulating the chess pieces stared at the blood-red chess pieces, his eyes dull and muttering to himself.

"Why wouldn't it be like this?"

"Do you really think that my boss will just step into a strange castle without doing anything?"

"Or do you think my boss is really just here to drink beef soup?"

A joking voice suddenly sounded.

Then, an arm was placed on the shoulder of the person controlling the chess piece, making the opponent unable to move.

"you you……"

Feeling the strength on his arm, the person manipulating the chess piece looked at the person who appeared next to him in horror.

This place is hidden and unknown.

Logically speaking, no one can come in at all.

After all, there isn't even a conventional door here.

"I?"

"Of course I walked in."

"Although it's strange, for me, it's really the same as going home."

The upper evil spirit looked at the other party with a smile, and at the same time, he looked at the shadows around him.

At this moment, these shadows seem ordinary, but in the eyes of the upper evil spirits, they have already seen something hidden in the depths, and they are stretching their bodies to prepare to show their teeth and claws, and may roar.

The superior evil spirit shrugged.

"There are always people who try to be smarter."

After saying this, he waved his arm on the other person's shoulder.

puff!

The head of the man controlling the chess pieces flew up into the air amid the blood spurting from his chest.

The eyes of this head were wide open, full of unwillingness and anger.

Because, it was not until this moment that the opponent discovered that the bloody chess piece was still in his hand and had not fallen on the chessboard.

Illusion!

The other party, who was not a rookie, reacted quickly.

But what's the use?

All lives are lost.

Snapped!

The head of the man who manipulated the chess pieces just fell to the ground. The things that were about to move in the shadows stopped in an instant. The upper evil spirit didn't even look there. It picked up the bloody chess piece in the opponent's hand, and then picked up the chessboard again. , the whole person disappeared in place.

Its mission has not yet been completed.

The guy who was killed in front of me was just doing it conveniently.

The real enemy is still deep in the castle.

As for the person who manipulates the chess pieces?

Everything the other party thinks they control.

But they are just chess pieces.

A guy who became arrogant and arrogant as soon as he entered the level and obtained a special item, eventually died of his own ignorance.

The superior evil spirit gave the other party a very loyal evaluation in his heart.

Similarly, the 'swordsmith' who was pierced by the shadow's sword on the shoulder also gave himself a very loyal warning in his heart.

Never owe anyone a favor in the future!

Feeling that there was no pain at all from the wound on his shoulder, the 'swordsmith' smiled bitterly.

There is bound to be pain when there is a wound.

There are only two possibilities when there is a wound but no pain.

First, the weapon that caused the wound was poisonous.

Second, the person who caused the wound had other ideas.

No matter which one it is, the 'Swordsmith' thinks it is terrible.

Just like the sword his shadow gave him just now.

It was almost when it pierced his heart that he finally sensed it after experiencing countless dangers. After trying his best to dodge, he still injured his shoulder.

Moreover, such damage ignores defense.

The armor, inner armor, and even the force field shield on his body were useless.

Just like that, he was pierced by his own shadow.

It was as if he had given himself a sword.

What's even worse is that after giving him a sword, his shadow just disappeared. Under natural light, he had no shadow at this moment.

Witch curse?

A devil's trick?

Infernal stitch?

With speculations emerging in his mind, the 'swordsmith' tried to use his own way to solve the problem in front of him.

But, it's all useless.

Holy water, exorcism silverware, peach wood charms, etc., all have no effect.

On the contrary, the uneasiness in his heart became stronger and stronger.

leave!

Leave now!

Otherwise, it will be completely destroyed!

The uneasiness in his heart urged him.

Even if there is no shadow left, we must leave immediately.

The 'swordsmith' followed the voice in his heart and began to retreat.

But just when he moved, the street behind him just disappeared.

The gate to the inner city of the castle in front of me opened with the creaking sound of the winch.

A dark man came out.

The dark man had no facial features, but his aura was extremely familiar.

The 'swordsmith' recognized the other party almost at the first sight.

No one knows each other better than him.

Because that is his shadow!

Just after stabbing him, his shadow disappeared.

The dark shadow paused and seemed to laugh. Then, he raised his hand out of thin air and pulled out a long shadow sword.

The tip of the sword points directly at the 'swordsmith'.

The 'swordsmith' frowned.

Not only because his own shadow drew his sword towards him, but also because as the opponent drew his sword, the surrounding scene changed again.

It became an ancient arena.

The venue is spacious and surrounded by high platforms.

Cheers full of blood could not be heard.

"kill him!"

"kill him!"

"kill him!"

One after another, the shadow of the 'swordsmith' moved as high as a wave of shouts.

It turned the tip of the sword upside down and stabbed towards his left arm.

puff!

The shadow sword passed through the shadow's left arm.

Then, a gash appeared on the 'swordsmith''s own left arm, and blood flowed freely.

There was no pain like before.

At this time, the real pain instantly reached the depths of the 'Sword Forger's' brain, causing the 'Sword Forger's' breathing to stagnate.

Immediately afterwards, the eyes of the 'swordsmith' widened.

Because, at this moment, the shadow of the 'swordsmith' stabbed his body with more than ten swords.

Every sword misses the point.

But every strike was extremely painful.

The groan of pain appeared uncontrollably.

After the people on the surrounding high platforms heard such cries of pain, their cheers became louder and louder.

"kill him!"

"kill him!"

"kill him!"

Once again, the bloody cry rang out.

The shadow without facial features walked around the arena like a real person, displaying its impaled body as it walked.

Each time it brought immense pain to the 'swordsmith'.

And when the shadow circled the scene, the 'swordsmith' was half-kneeling on the ground. There was no good piece of flesh left on his body, and he looked no different from the one who had been cut into pieces with a thousand swords.

But the 'swordsmith' did not die.

The path he chose destined him to be tenacious and vital.

It also determines his adaptability.

The shadow pierced his body again, but the difference was that this time the 'swordsmith' did not cry out in pain. Not only did he not cry out in pain, he stood up again.

"So that's it."

The 'swordsmith' whispered to himself.

As he spoke, he walked towards his shadow.

The shadow that was so arrogant just a moment ago became timid when facing the approaching 'swordsmith'.

The 'swordsmith' grinned when he saw this scene.

"You can cause me harm, but you don't have the ability to cause me fatal harm. That's why you choose this method to kill my will."

"After all, once I decide that I am a loser, with the bonus of this illusion, you may kill me!"

"or……"

"Replace it!"

The last sentence, 'Swordsmith' was shouted out.

And, in this roar, the 'swordsmith' grabbed his shadow's neck, and slammed the opponent to the ground like a sack.

"Those who are hiding inside, come out!"

boom!

The earth seemed to be shaking.

The shadow shattered.

Appeared again at the feet of the 'Sword Forger'.

Everything around him disappeared again.

The 'Swordsmith' once again appeared in front of the inner city of the castle.

However, he didn't catch the guy who scarred him.

Squeak, squeak!

Just when the 'Sword Forger' took out the healing potion, the door to the inner city opened again. Almost as an instinctive reaction, the 'Sword Forger' hid his body in the shadow on one side.

The windlass, the windlass.

Amidst the sound of wooden wheels, a prison van was pushed out of the inner city.

Looking at the people in the prison car, the 'swordsmith' narrowed his eyes.

That person is Dekoman!

Although the system has hidden his face, the aura of the 'Sword Forger' will not be forgotten.

However, looking at Dekoman in the prison car, the 'swordsmith' hesitated.

"Could this be another trap?"

Subconsciously, the 'swordsmith' rubbed the brass ring.

…

After Jack Bai paid five bowls of beef soup in coins, Kieran walked out of the restaurant.

"My collaborator is dead."

After walking out of the restaurant, Jack Bai suddenly said.

"Collaborator?"

Kieran looked at the white skull.

"That's the contractor."

"However, our contract is rather special and does not contain an order, so I call it a collaborator."

Jack Bai explained.

Qin Ran didn't speak and looked at the other person quietly.

He believed that the other party's sudden words were not meant for such an explanation.

And this is actually the case.

Under Kieran's gaze, Jack Bai continued.

"My collaborator is dead. I can no longer stay in this city, nor can I return to my original world. I can only die according to the rules."

"But I don't want such a silent death."

"So, I want to sign a new contract with you."

"Of course it won't be that kind of cooperation contract, but a real follower contract. Your strength is worthy of my loyalty."

Jack Bai said like a knight, kneeling on one knee, making a fist with his right hand and placing it on his chest, where his heart is.

"oh."

Qin Ran expressed his understanding aloud, then walked around the other party and continued to move forward.

Jack Bai was stunned.

Undoubtedly, Skeleton never imagined this situation.

Getting a follower for no reason, how could anyone be unmoved by such a good thing?

"My lord, I am willing to be loyal to you!"

Jack White reiterated.

But this time, Qin Ran didn't even pay attention and just walked towards the inner city.

"Sir, be careful, there..."

Seeing Qin Ran's actions, Jack Bai was shocked.

Although it doesn't really know the castle because of its cooperation, it still knows some dangerous places.

For example: near the inner city gate.

But then Jack Bai's voice stopped abruptly.

Crunch!

The gate of the inner city slowly opened, and a figure walked out of the door respectfully, saluted to Qin Ran and said, "Boss."

After saluting, the superior evil spirit straightened up, presented the chessboard and the bloody chess pieces with his hands, and looked at Qin Ran flatteringly.

The superior evil spirits are waiting for praise.

Of course, he was looking at Jack Bai from the corner of his eye.

The meaning could not be more obvious.

ridicule!

despise!

If Qin Ran hadn't been right in front of him, the superior evil spirit would have trampled Jack White under his feet and asked the other party loudly, "It's a slave contract for someone as capable as him, working hard and without complaint. Why should you, a skeleton, follow the contract? Just because of you." Long and white?

Pooh!

How shameless!
