Strange Era: An exclusive talent every month.

A profession that reaches the fifth rank is already quite strong. The entire Longhu Chess Academy recruits chess players, but through playing these unique chess pieces, they can master the ability to control the pieces.

Moreover, each chessboard here is very expensive, meticulously crafted, and can be considered a special item. Furthermore, the stronger one's own strength and the higher one's chess skill, the more powerful one can become by controlling these chess pieces.

Think of this.

Chen Ye immediately realized that Longhu Chess Academy was a kind of guild.

However, faced with this crisis, Chen Ye did not immediately take action. Instead, he planned to see how the players of Longhu Chess Academy would resolve the crisis based on their own strength and characteristics.

"Blood Gate... How could something like this appear in our guild?" A short chess player couldn't help but show fear the moment he saw the Blood Gate appear.

"What exactly is the Blood Gate, and why is it in our chess academy?" Xiao Rong asked, his face full of confusion.

It's clear that he's just a relatively simple chess player who hasn't learned much about other related information.

To understand the Blood Gate, one needs to constantly monitor events in this world.

"careful!"

"I've heard that the Blood Gate is an extremely dangerous place. If a Blood Gate appears inside a shop, we must abandon this place immediately!"

"Yes, it is said that to get rid of the Blood Gate, one must enter the world inside the Blood Gate."

"Then can't we just ignore him?"

"Look! Monsters are emerging from the Blood Gate! These things are so sinister!"

While the chess players were still arguing, the aura of the Blood Gate had completely flooded into the entire Longhu Chess Academy. As the Blood Gate secreted streams of viscous blood that flowed everywhere, one after another red-skinned zombie crawled out of the blood, baring its fangs and claws, and pounced on the chess players of Longhu Chess Academy!
Such an ugly monster is rarely seen by most people. After all, the chess players in the chess academy are relatively pure; they just play chess and they also receive the protection of masters. They are a group of players who have never seen the world.

So, when they saw the red zombies, these players were terrified!
After all, the red-skinned zombie's entire body was wrinkled and looked extremely disgusting, definitely not a benevolent creature!
now.

The red zombies pounced on the players, immediately causing a commotion among the crowd.

Some players started to retreat, while others vomited because the red zombies smelled terrible. They hadn't experienced combat yet and couldn't stand the stench.

"Don't panic! Immediately take out your pieces, silently recite the summons, and fight them!"

Elder Li Chinian's composed figure echoed throughout the arena.

next second.

He threw out the chess piece in his hand, and several cavalrymen immediately grew to enormous size, standing in front of everyone like statues, like a small hill.

The next second, these cavalry statues raised their swords and slashed fiercely at the red-skinned zombie!
That strike was as if it could split a mountain in two.

It smashed onto the red-skinned zombies, instantly turning them all into minced meat!

"Amazing!"

"Elder Li Chinian, so our chess pieces can also reach this level?"

"Don't forget, you can summon chess pieces to fight. This is a characteristic of [Chess Player]. As long as you reach the second job advancement, you can immediately receive the [Summoning] characteristic within the Dragon Lake Chess Academy!"

"However, to [summon], you must use your will. The stronger your will, the more likely you are to summon chess pieces to protect yourselves."

The fox-tailed girl immediately called out loudly to the chess players.

Many chess players are unaware that chess pieces can actually be summoned.

Most of this content pertains to knowledge from the inner court.

Xiao Rong casually tossed out several king generals, which had transformed into heavenly soldiers and generals, possessing magic and capable of remotely bombarding the red-skinned zombies!

Whoosh whoosh! ! !
One after another, magical orbs flew out from the hands of the heavenly soldiers and generals, smashing into the group of red-skinned zombies and instantly killing a portion of them!

"Well done, Xiao Rong! So you can summon chess pieces now!"

Xiao Rong's friend was shocked to see that his good brother had also learned the [Summoning] skill. He himself hadn't learned it yet, but his friend had already.

Xiao Rong scratched his head and gave a wry smile: "Actually, the inner academy no longer plays chess. They are all learning how to summon chess pieces. Only the outer academy still plays chess. But the ability to summon chess pieces is indeed related to one's own chess strength. I don't know how this rule was formulated. I also find it very magical."

Everyone was relieved; it turned out that entering the inner courtyard allowed them to learn how to summon chess pieces.

However, the heavenly soldiers and generals summoned by Xiao Rong were the same height as ordinary people, and did not look as powerful as those summoned by Elder Li Chinian.

Elder Li Chinian only summoned a cavalryman, but for some reason, he seemed even more powerful than the heavenly soldiers and generals summoned by Xiao Rong!

Moreover, players who can own their own chess pieces at Longhu Chess Academy are either highly skilled and recruited into the Longhu inner circle, or very wealthy and have purchased a set of chess pieces from Longhu Chess Academy.

Now everyone knows why the chess pieces at Longhu Chess Academy cost fifty gold coins to buy. They are a set of items with special characteristics, but whether you know how to use them depends on yourself.

However, many players now have a certain amount of gold coins saved up after following the guides.

If you want to buy it with silver coins, it will cost tens of thousands of silver coins, which is indeed the price for purchasing top-tier items.

However, if you're buying with gold coins, players haven't yet discovered any clever uses for them. The only way to obtain them is by completing dungeons. So, many players now use gold coins to trade items. By simply throwing them out, they can get many of the items they want at a relatively low price, which can be considered a fairly profitable business.

At this moment, the other chess players from the inner courtyard came out one after another, summoning their own chess pieces and joining the battle.

However, blood flowed out from under his feet.

It has already spread to everyone's feet!

Suddenly, a red-skinned zombie appeared beneath a person's body.

A red-skinned zombie crawled out of the river of blood, grabbed the person's leg, and pulled him down forcefully...

Before the man could react, he was immediately pulled into the river of blood, and his entire figure sank into it and suddenly disappeared!
Everyone was shocked by what they saw, completely unprepared for such a situation!
"Damn it! What's going on here! It seems extremely unsafe to step on these rivers of blood!" "We're doomed! These zombies seem relatively easy to deal with, but these rivers of blood are absolutely off-limits!"

"What should we do? Even without these red zombies, we'd still die if we were dragged in!"

"We don't want to die!"

"Who can save us?"

At this moment, everyone discovered that the hand inside the blood river was automatically reaching out and pulling everyone in, which was extremely dangerous!

The river of blood flowing out from within the Blood Gate spread everywhere!
Red zombies are indeed easy to kill, but what about these rivers of blood?
Moreover, they had no idea what the Blood River was all about, or why a hand could reach out and pull everyone's bodies in, killing them completely.

"Everyone be careful! Stay on my guardian beast, don't panic!"

The fox-tailed girl threw out a large pile of chess pieces from her hand.

next second.

These chess pieces suddenly unfolded, transforming into enormous guardian beasts, dragging everyone's bodies as they rode on the broad backs of these guardian beasts.

Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise, White Tiger...

Each of them is as large as a small hill, enough to hold dozens of students in mid-air, so that they will not be pulled by the red-skinned zombies on the ground!

Moreover, as the sect leader, the fox-tailed girl certainly possesses more than one chessboard.

They lost several pieces in a row.

The scene on the field was almost entirely protected by various guardian beasts!
"The fox-tailed girl's chess skills are indeed the strongest. Even the strength of a single guardian beast is comparable to that of a fourth-ranked warrior. Dealing with these red-skinned zombies is more than enough for her."

"Moreover, these guardian generals have simply protected all the chess players in the academy, without truly unleashing their own unique characteristics."

"If all the special abilities are activated, it will also consume a lot of energy from the fox-tailed girl!"

"Currently, the situation is getting worse. Summoning so many pieces is a considerable drain on her resources."

Chen Ye noticed that the fox-tailed girl had some cold sweat on her forehead.

Clearly, her move successfully protected the chess players from the academy, but it still took a heavy toll on her own health.

At the same time, Elder Li Chi-nian had successfully summoned heavenly soldiers and generals, who then bombarded the red-skinned zombies that had crawled out.

next second.

As deep, dark holes appeared on the ground, many red-skinned zombies were blasted to their deaths.

However, the spread of the Blood Gate did not slow down at all; on the contrary, it became even more ferocious.

"This is really troublesome. Where did these red-skinned zombies from the Blood Gate come from? Why are there so many of them? It seems like we can't kill them all!"

Elder Li Chi Nian couldn't help but curse viciously. His hatred for the Blood Gate had reached its peak. If it weren't for this damned Blood Gate, he would still be here enjoying the game between Chen Ye and the sect leader, occasionally reminiscing about it, and feeling that his chess skills had improved a lot. But then this happened, making him extremely irritable.

However, the red-skinned zombies from the Blood Gate keep crawling out!

and.

As the blood river gradually spread throughout the entire Longhu Chess Academy.

Red-skinned zombies kept crawling out from the flowing blood, causing damage to the entire chess academy.

The fox-tailed girl's eyes were already red.

This beautiful chess academy was originally meticulously built by me, but it was completely destroyed because of the appearance of this blood gate. The level of distress in my heart has reached the extreme. I wish I could kill everything in the blood gate!
However, the reason why the Blood Gate appeared is because this thing is inherently illogical.

Chen Ye vaguely felt that the Blood Gate must have been created by some kind of driving force, which made it seem extremely disgusting. However, he couldn't find such a mastermind for the time being. He wondered where he could find it.

"Give me some chess pieces, and I think I can try to summon them."

Chen Ye found the fox-tailed girl, reached out his hand, and summoned the chess pieces she wanted.

"Can you summon?"

The fox-tailed girl was stunned. The content about summoning was something that only the chess players in the inner courtyard of Longhu Chess Academy could master. Chen Ye was just an outsider. No matter how profound his chess skills were, he should have no understanding of the content of summoning, right?
However, the fox-tailed girl clearly noticed that Chen Ye's eyes were very calm, completely unaffected by the situation, and he did not even choose to flee the place immediately.

Longhu Chess Academy is, after all, just their own territory, not Chen Ye's territory, so he has no need to stay here.

But Chen Ye stayed there and asked the fox-tailed girl for a few chess pieces...

Faced with this predicament, the fox-tailed girl hesitated for a moment, but suddenly felt that Chen Ye's strength was very reliable. Under the premise that he said whatever he wanted, it would be best to meet his needs. Perhaps it would be a good way to resolve the current situation.

"Okay, I'll give you some chess pieces."

The fox-tailed girl hurriedly began to organize her pouch, hoping to find a few powerful chess pieces to lend to Chen Ye for use.

Unexpectedly, Chen Ye directly took out ten thousand silver coins and said:
"I'll just buy a chessboard. You should have some spare chessboards here. I want to buy one so I can play with them later, and even use my own pieces. It will be much more comfortable to play with them."

The fox-tailed girl was stunned for a moment, completely unexpected that Chen Ye would casually throw out 10,000 silver coins. This was too extravagant!
To know.

Such a chessboard is quite valuable; usually, only very skilled players can play it.

In addition, the fox-tailed girl realized a very serious problem...

Chen Ye was likely encountering this kind of chess style for the first time.

After all, he didn't even have a chessboard! (End of Chapter)
