Go: Is the portable old man the nine-time champion?

Chapter 236 Forgetting Old Love for New Ones
"hateful!"

Looking at the situation on the field, Ethan seemed to realize that something was not good.

Yi Zheng is still unwilling to start a fight. Simply taking the middle part is not enough; he needs to fatten it up first.

Ethan also felt that things were getting increasingly chaotic, and the situation on the field was slipping further and further out of his control, or rather, the situation was now completely out of the control of the two players.

If Coach Ke were to accept his current situation, he would probably be ruthless and abandon the piece.

But for Ethan, the idea of ​​sacrificing a pawn was simply too outrageous and impossible.

Even if someone told him he could abandon the pawn now, he would curse that person as a complete lunatic! Is that something a human being could think of? You're insane!

However, Ethan is still one of the top five in the world, regardless of how much of a flaw Yi Zheng believes in his personality or how much it will affect his future.

But his skill is undeniable; otherwise, his rating wouldn't have reached such a level, and he even won the runner-up title in the World Cup, despite winning three consecutive games only to be defeated in four.

Although time was running out, Ethan quickly calmed down and came up with a way to finish off the remaining string of strings by abandoning the tail.

"How did things get so chaotic..."

When Yun Linglei came over again, he found that the entire chessboard situation was completely chaotic, even more chaotic than in Northwest Shanxi.

For a moment, Yun Linglei was also unclear about when things had started to turn out this way. The turning point of World War II was Li Yunlong's attack on Ping'an County. So what was the turning point of this game?
Yun Linglei felt that he wasn't confident in taking over either side, Black or White. Why did young people like playing such brain-teasing games so much?

Young people are still too young.

However, Yun Linglei was quite interested in what exactly happened in this game and felt he should ask Yi Zheng about it after the game ended.

Just moments ago, we thought all hope was lost, but now the situation has completely spiraled out of control again.

Yi Zheng seems to have a lot of experience and skill in disrupting the game in the mid-game.

The situation on the field is now completely chaotic.

Ethan was unaware that he could maintain a slight advantage if he eliminated the calamity now, because from a human perspective, eliminating it now would be a huge loss, and Ethan had never even considered such an option.

Move 178, White, move!

Ethan's move wasn't to support the white stones in the center, but to strengthen the corner and prevent the three black stones in the corner from having any means of attacking.

But Yi Zheng rushed in without any hesitation.

Seeing the situation above, Ethan finally returned to the bottom right corner and made a move, completely dominating the bottom right corner.

It seems that Ethan has achieved his strategic goal, taking control of both the top and bottom right corners, although he lost part of the central dragon.

Moreover, judging from the overall score, Ethan felt that he was in a slightly advantageous position.

As long as Yi Zheng can't make a move, Ethan feels that his chances of winning are not only there, but very high!

Seeing this, Ethan's lips twitched involuntarily, and he could no longer suppress his smile. He hadn't expected that after all the twists and turns, he would still be the most likely to win in the end, even when he had no chance of winning.

This is not a victory of technology, but a victory of luck!
But that makes it even more exciting!
Because skills can be improved, but sometimes luck is something that can't be explained or described.

For a top chess player, having the luck to decide the game at crucial moments is perhaps the most important thing.

The strong have strong luck!
The God of Go has not abandoned me! He has not forgotten me! I am still God's favorite!

He wanted to use this victory to tell himself that Ethan was the future world number one! But what Ethan didn't know was that this was just the beginning of his nightmare.

Yi Zheng first established a foothold on the right side, and then directly cut off Ethan's dragon's tail in the middle.

This move may seem like just capturing the white stones on top, but in reality, Yi Zheng has been eyeing the opportunity to make a move against the black stones in the upper right corner.

Ethan, let me show you what our little black guy is all about!
Chicken, you are so beautiful!

Ethan had no idea of ​​this at the time. He thought he had made all the necessary preparations, but what he didn't realize was that his preparations had dug a hole and buried him.

Move 190, White, Tiger.

Ethan's tiger move was also to support the white pieces in the center. After all, if the center is not handled well, and Yi Zheng rushes down, it is very likely that it will be difficult to protect both the left and right sides. If either side dies, it will be all over.

"ended."

Upon seeing this, Yi Zheng did not hesitate and immediately launched his final move of the game.

Move 191, Black, squeeze!

Seeing this move, Ethan didn't seem surprised at all, because in his mind, Yi Zheng could escape the black pieces, but he could also capture the black pieces in the center, so Yi Zheng would not gain any advantage at all.

But as he walked further in, Ethan realized something was wrong!

Yi Zheng's earlier move of cutting off the white stones tightened the white stones' breath. In the next move, Yi Zheng did not connect, but instead attacked directly!

Upon seeing this move, Ethan's face turned ashen, and the chess piece slipped from his hand and fell onto the table.

Finished!

Ethan's original plan was to sacrifice the two tails in the center to control the top and bottom on the right.

Now, two costs have been paid, but Yi Zheng has managed to escape on the right.

Ethan's brilliant plan to secure the world backfired, costing him both his wife and his army.

Ethan suddenly felt that he could empathize with Zhou Yu from the Chinese novel he had read before, Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

How could this be?
If Black connects back, how can we continue this game?
There is absolutely no hope left!
Ethan shook his head mechanically, feeling that some people couldn't believe reality. He had just been thinking that the God of Go hadn't forgotten him or abandoned him.

But now I've lost again, how should I put it?
Has the God of Go completely abandoned and given up on himself?
Aren't we, the Amelika, the true victors? We are the city atop the mountain, the promised land. I, born in this place, should be the chosen one!

Why did I lose twice in a row to people who are not as good as me? How could this be?
Does God abandon his old love when he finds a new one?

hateful!

This shouldn't be happening! This shouldn't be happening!

How could Yi Zheng possibly beat me?! How could he possibly beat me?!

Ethan felt he had lost all interest in calculating and began placing his pieces mechanically, because at this point, it didn't matter where he placed them.

despair!

Ethan simply couldn't understand how Yi Zheng, whose strength was clearly inferior to his own, could achieve two consecutive victories against him!

Why should he!
