Chapter 175: Trophies - Psychic Sand Table
Looking at the battle situation that was tied on the sand table, Lambert suddenly became a little dazed.
A week ago, Tina was still a military rookie who couldn't even tell the difference between the troops and the branches;
A week later, Tina could tie with him in "war chess deduction".
To learn to this level in a week, is this the legendary "talent"?
Su Yu stood by and watched the war chess deduction.
In addition to Su Yu, there was another person watching in the war chess room. He was the president of the war chess association - Mir Jean.
Mir Jean received the news of Lambert's arrival and rushed to the war chess room immediately.
Coincidentally, he saw the scene where Lambert and Tina tied.
As an old friend, he immediately laughed out loud: "Haha, Lambert, can you do it? You tied with a little girl who just learned chess? It's so embarrassing, don't tell others that I know you!"
"What do you know?" Lambert glared at him fiercely: "If it were you, you might not be Tina's opponent!"
Lamber is very confident in his chess level, he is better than Mir.
Since Tina can tie with him, it will be no problem to beat Mir.
"Her?" Mir Jean made a "are you kidding me" expression: "How can a beginner like her beat me, the president of the chess association? What a joke!"
"What if I can win?" Tina smiled kindly on the other side of the sand table.
She blinked her big, harmless eyes and asked, "How about we make a bet?"
"What do you want to bet?"
"Let's play nine games of chess, best of nine. If I win, I want this 'psychic sandbox'."
Tina was greatly influenced by Su Yu. She wanted to bet on something she was confident about to increase her gains.
To put it in an inappropriate metaphor, after being with Su Yu for too long, Tina has almost become like Su Yu.
"The little girl is very confident!" Mir Rang couldn't help but look at Tina a few more times: "What if you lose?"
"If I lose, I will donate 1 million psychic coins to the chess association as sandbox maintenance fees." Tina remained calm, as if the 1 million was paper.
"1 million?" Mir Rang was moved: "Okay, it's a deal!"
Witnessed by Lambert and Su Yu, Tina and Mir's chess game duel officially began.
According to Tina's request, this duel adopted a best of nine games system, and draws did not count.
In the first two games, Tina was defeated without any suspense.
However, Tina learned a lot from the defeat and understood Mir's routines.
In the fourth game, the two sides gradually tied.
In the seventh game, Tina took a risky move in a battle for a stronghold and used the classic "corridor tactics" to win a victory.
The following war chess deduction became a one-sided crushing.
Tina's tactics were unrestrained and smooth.
Mir's mentality became more and more broken after several failures, and his most commonly used routines were repeatedly seen through by Tina and could not be effective.
Finally, in the evening, Tina left the war chess association with her trophy - the psychic sand table, and returned to the Unicorn Barracks.
...
Walking on the road, Tina still felt a little unsatisfied with the military chess battle just now.
She said softly to Su Yu beside her: "Nemesis, with this psychic sand table, we can have more new tricks at night, and we don't have to study boringly all the time."
"Forget it, I don't want to play this with you." Su Yu shrugged.
Su Yu had played a lot of "war chess deduction" in his previous life, because many hidden tasks would involve it, and he had to master some.
But compared with Tina's level, he was far behind.
Now Su Yu's match against Tina is like a Go enthusiast against AlphaGo, so he is not interested in being abused.
...
Back to the residence in the barracks, Tina asked the porters to place the sand table in the hall of the residence.
This psychic sand table is 3 meters wide and about 5 meters long. There is no place to put it except the hall.
Fortunately, as the commander of the legion, the residence allocated to Tina is large enough, otherwise such a large thing may not be able to be placed.
It was already late after the sand table was placed.
Tina paid the porters.
After the porters left, she couldn't help but stretch: "Nemesis, I'm going to take a shower first, and we'll go back to the room to continue studying later."
Every night in the past week, Tina would study with Su Yu all night until dawn. She has become accustomed to this kind of life.
As for sleeping, after being promoted to the fifth level, her energy is almost unlimited, and she doesn't need to sleep at all.
Su Yu shook his head: "Tina, you have already completed your apprenticeship, and I don't need to accompany you to study in the future."
Tina was slightly startled: "Is that so?"
She suddenly felt a little reluctant in her heart. Nemesis was unwilling to accompany her after the apprenticeship. It was so boring to read alone.
I should have learned slower at the beginning.
...
Su Yu took out a small notebook from his backpack and looked at Tina seriously: "Tina, after completing your apprenticeship, have you ever thought about experiencing a real battle to test your learning results these days?"
Now the 23rd round of the main line has ended, and the scene battle of the 25th round is not far away. Su Yu must find a way to arrange a scene battle for Tina.
And after the 25th round, he can get the reward of the first stage of the main line!
The reward of the first stage is definitely very good!
Su Yu is looking forward to what will be given this time.
……
Hearing Su Yu's words, Tina was slightly stunned: "Use actual combat to test the results of learning?"
She touched her chin: "Well... It's not impossible, but the surrounding area of Oran City is very peaceful at present, and there is no opportunity for actual combat?"
After all, Oran City is in the rear of the empire, and it is very peaceful at present. There are not many combat opportunities like the front line, and without the permission of His Majesty the Emperor and His Royal Highness, she can't mobilize the army to the front line without authorization.
"It's okay, I have already found a target for you to practice with." Su Yu replied: "There is a bandit camp in the 'Red Ridge Mountain' 30 kilometers east of Oran City. How about practicing with it?"
"Bandits?" Tina lowered her head and fell into thought.
She had heard of the bandit camp in the Red Ridge Mountain.
The Red Ridge Mountain is located on the main traffic route northeast of Oran City. If merchants in Oran City want to trade with the central cities of the empire such as Forest City and the imperial capital Plantagenet City by land, they must pass through the Red Ridge Mountain.
At present, bandits are rampant in the Red Ridge Mountain area and have robbed many caravans.
But this group of bandits is very cunning. They specialize in robbing small caravans and passers-by, and stay away from caravans of nobles and merchants.
In addition, the current situation is turbulent, and the mayor of Oran City has no energy to eliminate this group of bandits, which has allowed the bandits to wreak havoc for nearly two years.
If it is this group of bandits, it is indeed a very good training target.
Su Yu added: "Tina, clearing out this group of bandits, on the one hand, you can put the military knowledge you have learned into practice; on the other hand, it can also establish your prestige in the Knights. Only by leading everyone to win the battle, everyone will fully recognize you."
"You make sense."
After some thought, Tina finally made a decision: "Okay, we will lead the Knights to eliminate this group of bandits in the next two days!"
