Lord Era: I, The Strongest Abyss Lord!

————————————————

As black stones and white stones kept falling on the chessboard, the outcome of this chess game came to an end very quickly.

"I lost."

Wu Wei lowered his head and said slowly.

"Um."

"Indeed... cough cough cough."

"I lost."

The thin woman opposite Wu Wei said with a smile.

Then, she looked at Wu Wei with a pair of gentle eyes.

"So, do you want another round?"

"Um."

Wu Wei nodded.

At the same time, his head became even lower.

At this time, the scarlet color in his eyes had gradually disappeared, replaced by his original pupils.

"good."

The thin woman slowly stretched out her hand to arrange the chessboard.

However, Wu Wei took the lead and arranged the chessboard before his opponent.

Judging from his appearance, he was unwilling to make the other party tired in vain.

Seeing Wu Wei's appearance, the thin woman laughed.

However, she didn't say anything, she just watched the young Wu Wei doing all this quietly.

Finally, after a period of busy work, Wu Wei finished all this and put the chessboard back together.

"let's start."

It's a new chess game.

But this time, the time of this chess game was slower than the previous one.

But the ending is the same.

"I lost."

After the last black chess piece was placed on the chessboard, Wu Wei lowered his head and said.

The woman opposite him smiled and said nothing.

She said nothing, just watched Wu Wei clear the chessboard and start a new chess game.

that's all.

in this small room.

The two men played one game after another without saying a word.

Time seemed to have stopped.

If it weren't for the two of them on the chessboard, there would still be the sound of pieces being moved and the sound of a woman coughing.

All this is like an unchanging picture.

As time went by, Wu Wei had forgotten how long it had been since he came here.

finally...

"you..."

"Maybe I didn't win on purpose."

After losing the chess game again, the woman opposite Wu Wei spoke.

And Wu Wei also raised his head.

Looking at the woman's somewhat cloudy eyes, Wu Wei nodded.

"Um."

He couldn't lie, he simply admitted it.

He deliberately lost the game from the first game.

But why?

"Why are you doing this, Xiao Wu Wei?"

After hearing Wu Wei's answer, the thin woman put her hand on Wu Wei's head and said softly.

There was no blame in her cloudy eyes, but only concern.

"Because I don't want to win."

Wu Wei pinched the chess piece in his hand and said calmly.

"I know that the area I am in now is my illusion."

"But I also know that once I win over you."

"Then this will all be over."

"So, I don't want to win."

Hearing Wu Wei's answer, the woman nodded.

"So that's it, cough cough."

"Well, cough, cough, cough, Xiao Wuwei."

"Do you still remember how I taught you before?"

The woman withdrew her hand from Wu Wei's head and sat back down.

"Remember."

"Then, tell me."

"What is the essence of war?"

Facing the woman's question, Wu Wei was silent for a moment.

"The essence of war is the sum of zero-sum games one after another."

"Then here's the problem."

"Xiao Wuwei, tell me."

"After understanding the nature of war, how can you influence war?"

"Refining."

Wu Wei whispered.

"Infinitely refine the war and break down the battlefield into pieces of chess."

"Then, turn everything I have into chess pieces, and use these chess pieces to gain an advantage."

After hearing Wu Wei's answer, the woman smiled.

He answered well and did not forget what he preached.

"But the battlefield is chaotic."

"When the battlefield becomes chaotic, how can you ensure that your chess pieces have the advantage?"

"Just like..."

"It's like chess."

"The so-called chaos is just the appearance."

"Because war itself creates chaos."

"No matter how chaotic the chessboard is, there are always traces to follow."

Wu Wei said seriously.

"But in this chaos, as chess players, we must not bring our own thinking into the chess pieces on the chess board. We will always be chess players."

"So when we play chess, we must ensure that we are detached from things and understand the overall situation."

"Because only in this way will we not be disrupted by mere chaos, and only in this way will we not be afraid of chaos and be able to integrate with chaos."

"In the most chaotic chaos, find the pattern, understand the pattern, and then win the game."

"Then what does this so-called law mean?"

"And the so-called laws are actually the enemy's ideas!"

Wu Wei raised his head and looked at the other party.

At this moment, Wu Wei's heart trembled.

Because he was surprised to find that as time passed.

The bruises on the other party's body have become increasingly obvious.

At this time, she had stopped coughing.

However, her body was so weak that it was difficult for her to even play chess.

But even so...

"So, Xiao Wuwei."

The woman smiled.

"Let's play one last set and then let me rest, okay?"

But Wu Wei shook his head.

"No."

"I really."

"I don't want to win!"

Wu Wei shook his head and said willfully.

But...

"Because if I win, you'll disappear, right?"

"Why can't we keep doing this?"

Rather than winning this set, Wu Wei hoped to make the opponent stay by his side for a while longer.

Although this is very selfish and very unrealistic.

Even if Wu Wei knew that he was in an illusion, he still thought so.

Just like everyone encounters the so-called inner demons.

Wu Wei fell into the illusion.

This terrifying existence is as cold-blooded as a devil outside.

In the illusion, he still has his own weaknesses.

Compared to the cruelty and indifference of the outside world, he would rather stay in his own fantasy and sink forever.

Just at this moment.

In Wu Wei's body, the divine fire that had lit up a corner of the sea of ​​soul suddenly dimmed.

he.

He is about to enter complete destruction and there will be no recovery!

————————————

"No, my dear little Wu Wei."

The woman stretched out her hand and touched Wu Wei's face.

She was extremely weak at this time, and her eyes were filled with doting on Wu Wei.

"You."

"I have to win."

"Otherwise, you won't be able to get out of here."

"I wish you could stay, but..."

"not now!"
