147 Rules of the Chess Club
He missed them so much that he wanted to return to Elf City.
Sigh.
Fang Ping sighed. He did not have the right to make decisions, so he could only follow the arrangements.
Or was it because he was too weak?
!!
At this moment, when he looked at the houses by the roadside, the decorations and patterns were no longer the same as before.
Looks like the better decision is to focus on increasing his strength.
The Fire Dragon Frontier Fortress actually had some training halls for combat technique training, resistance training, and dodging training. It was just that Fang Ping had never really wanted to go.
He was not in the mood to shop anymore. He looked around and prepared to find a training hall to pass the time.
Before long, they saw a chess hall. Many people were coming in and out, chatting and laughing.
Chess club? Seven-colored Chess?
Ever since he left the Silver Heron guild, he had not played the Seven-Colored Chess for a long time. It was not bad to look back and reminisce a little.
Just as he was about to step in, he was stopped by someone.
“Newcomer? The entrance fee is one copper horn.”
A bald burly man stopped Fang Ping at the door.
He took a copper horn from Fang Ping, shook it, and put it into the bag at his waist.
“A newbie, right? Do you want to ask for guidance? Fifty copper coins per round.”
Fang Ping shook his head. “No need. I’ve played a little before. What are the rules here?”
However, at this moment, someone else entered. The burly man waved his hand and walked over, not wanting to bother with Fang Ping anymore. “Go take a look yourself.”
Fang Ping thought that after watching a few rounds, he would get a feel of the style they play here. It was not like he did not know how to play Seven-Colored Chess.
In the spacious house, tables were neatly arranged. It felt like a chess room. Many people were sitting on both sides of the tables playing chess.
There was a bar near the door. Many people were leaning against the bar, drinking and chatting. From time to time, laughter could be heard. They were not worried that it would affect the players playing chess.
Fang Ping realized that someone had noticed him. He said a few words to the person beside him, then downed the wine in his hand in one gulp. He placed the wine glass on the bar counter and walked toward Fang Ping with a smile.
“Newcomer? This is Seven-Colored Chess. Do you know how to play it?”
“A little.” Fang Ping looked at him. + was a weird name.
“Old dog, you’re bullying newbies again.”
“Hahaha, the old dog is going to teach the newcomers again!”
The people at the bar laughed loudly, but Gouve pretended not to hear them. He continued to look at Fang Ping. “How about we play a round?”
Puzzled, Fang Ping nodded. “Okay.”
There was an empty table not far away.
Gopher pointed to the table. “That one, then.”
“Sure.”
Gouve stood at the side, waiting for Fang Ping to sit down before he did so. The smile on his face still made Fang Ping feel rather strange. Was this some kind of trap?
The chessboard was similar to the one Fang Ping had played before. There was a wooden box on his left. It was divided into seven small pieces that contained seven-colored chess pieces. It looked fine.
Moreover, this was a proper chess club, and there were so many people around. Nothing should happen.
Fang Ping looked at Gouve, not knowing what he was really up to.
He took out a coin from his pocket and threw it into the air. He covered the back of his hand with it. “Heads or tails. Call it. Heads or tails?”
“Heads.”
He lifted his hand. It was heads.
“You can choose the first move or the second move. By the way, you might not know the rules of the Chess Club. One bronze horn per round to the winner. Of course, you can raise the stakes.”
Now that Fang Ping knew his motive, he heaved a sigh of relief. That was it?
But of course he couldn’t say that. “But I didn’t even know that rule.”
“That can’t be helped. We’ve already flipped the coin. If you don’t bet, you’ll lose. Just give me the money.” Gouve’s smile widened as if he had succeeded.
“What if I don’t have money? Besides, I won’t give it to you even if I have money.”
Gouve pointed to the burly man at the door and raised an eyebrow. “It’s a rule in the chess club. Look, someone’s going to ask for the money for me. Can you beat him?”
“Then let’s play. Who knows who will win and who will lose? I called tails so you go first.”
Fang Ping was actually quite disdainful when he heard the stakes.
During this period of time, he had probably earned a million yuan.
However, in reality, from another perspective, most people in this world would not be able to come into contact with so much money.
Money in this world was very valuable. The main currency was still copper coins and copper horns. Silver dragons were very rare. When the Black Tiger Gang helped Fang Ping sign up for the Silver Heron team, they also used a handful of copper coins instead of silver dragons.
As for the larger currency of gold coins, ordinary people could not even come into contact with them.
A copper horn was worth 100 copper coins, so the actual purchasing power was more than 100 copper coins.
To Gouve, earning a copper horn was indeed a happy thing.
However, Fang Ping did not care. To Fang Ping, a copper horn was really nothing.
After interacting with those more extravagant advanced students for a long time, his views on money were different.
...
Thinking of this, Fang Ping was still very grateful to the Black Tiger Gang. They were the ones who had sent him to the Silver Heron team, and he was able to get to where he was today…
“Hurry up. It’s your turn. Do you have to think so long about the first step?”
Gouve’s urging pulled Fang Ping out of his thoughts. He looked at the chessboard, where a yellow chess piece was placed.
It was an Orc.
There were quite a number of types of Orcs. Fang Ping did not know what he had chosen. To be safe, he chose a blue chess piece, a Human.
When he placed the chessboard, his line of sight was also pulled in. However, this time, it was no longer the three choices from before. There were Swordsmen, heavily armored Guards, and Knights. There were six choices.
What was going on?
Fang Ping suddenly remembered that he had heard from Ivan before that their Seven Colored Chess was a simplified version and had no meaning.
That meant that there was a complete version of the Seven-Colored Chess. Could this be the complete version?
However, there were suddenly so many choices. Fang Ping did not know which occupations these corresponded to.
“Hurry up. If you don’t play for a long time, you’ll lose.”
...
Forget it, let’s rely on luck.
Fang Ping randomly chose a direction. The chess piece turned into blue light and condensed. A woman holding a long-handled ax appeared and took two steps forward.
Normal mercenary, 3 Strength, 20 Life, no characteristics.
Its basic attributes were not bad, but it had no characteristics and was a little weak.
Gouve did not wait. He immediately placed another yellow chess piece.
Similarly, Fang Ping cast a blue spell. This time, he chose a different option. A tall horse appeared, and a Knight riding a warhorse charged forward.
Fang Ping now knew why Gouve was so confident that he could win. He did not even know the choice of chess pieces, let alone the combination of lineups and racial coordination. He was completely clueless.
Gouve placed another yellow chess piece and smiled at Fang Ping. “It’s your turn. It’s almost over.”
Fang Ping quickly understood what Gouve meant.
The Knight quickly saw in front of the Orc was a tall Werewolf.
His legs were running, and his tall figure was even taller than a Knight riding a warhorse. His strong muscles bulged, and his two front claws swayed as he ran. His long claws shone with silver light.
