Necromancers Guide to Magic
Chapter 90: Living People Become Chess Pieces
Benjamin had no choice but to step onto the chessboard under the almost angry stare of the white chess pieces on the opposite side.
Yes, according to Draco's request, he is about to replace the king.
The chess piece slowly turned its head, looked at Benjamin, then took the crown off his head and put it on Benjamin's head.The king himself walked stiffly and walked out of the chessboard.
"What should I do next, Draco?" Although Benjamin was a little uncomfortable with this crown, to be honest, it was a bit too heavy.
Draco finally found his home court. He looked a little happy: "Just stand there, don't move, Your Majesty."
The king, whether in wizard chess or chess, cannot be given food, and under non-special circumstances, the king is the only piece that can walk to any adjacent square that is not attacked by the opponent piece-in other words In other words, if there is someone who has to sacrifice in this level, it will definitely not be the one who replaces the chess piece "King".
This means that Draco himself may be in danger, but Benjamin will not.
Obviously, Benjamin thought of this, and a trace of doubt flashed in his pupils.
"Why don't you be king by yourself? I mean, aren't you afraid of being chopped off by the knight on the opposite side?"
In fact, the knight in white armor had already raised the spear in his hand.
Mighty, yet majestic.
"Oh, how could I be eaten. The black knight is a very mobile unit (similar to the "horse" of chess) and if these chess pieces are really going crazy and ready to attack me, don't you use magic ?"
Draco's face was full of mockery.
Well, Benjamin spread his hands. He felt like he was nosy again.
"Okay, then I'll listen to you. But you must never make a mistake, I mean, I really don't want to be shot or benched." Benjamin couldn't help reminding.
After that, on the edge of the chessboard stood two black chess pieces that had just retreated. They stood quietly on the edge of the chessboard.Because there are no facial features, Benjamin and Draco don't even know if these two pieces are also watching this strange wizard chess game.
Thinking about it, it still makes people shudder.
"According to the rules, White will go first." Draco cleared his throat, then said to the blank space opposite.
Benjamin shrugged, he absolutely all this is really funny."Enough, Draco, do you think the chess piece on the opposite side can understand you?"
As soon as the words fell, those chess pieces seemed to be verifying that Draco was right (or maybe to hit Benjamin’s face). From among the white chess pieces standing opposite them, a white piece was heavily dressed. A's "Jade Guard" moved two spaces forward.
This is the rule of "pawns". Normally, they can only move one square in a straight line, but if they are taking the first step, they can choose to go one square or two.
The pawn's method of capturing pieces is different from the direction of the move. It is going straight and diagonally, that is, if there is an opponent's piece within one square of the pawn's diagonal, it can be captured and occupy that square.
After White moves, it is Black's turn to act.
Black played very cooperatively to Draco's orders. Whenever he asked which position of the pawns to go, they seemed to be able to understand people's words, and proceeded to the square that Draco asked for-instead It was when Draco needed to use the "real" "living" pawns, it was extremely troublesome.
"Benjamin, can you go one step ahead?"
"Can I stay still? They can't eat me. Okay, okay, I just want to be lazy." Benjamin knew that he was still weak even with the psychic potion.
If Professor Quirrell rushed over at this time, maybe he would think of a better reason.
Draco ordered a "June Guard" to move forward one more space.
Then at this time, it happened to be under the hoof of a white knight.Sure enough, in the next second, Benjamin saw that the white knight was really pulling the horse rope in his hand, the horse hoof was pushed up high, and the spear in his hand attacked like this.
The black soldier raised the shield in his hand, as if he wanted to resist the attack of the white knight, but it was useless.
His shield was picked up by the high white knight with a sharp spear. After a loud noise, the shield made of metal was picked up. The white horse trampled the black soldier under his feet, and the white knight He waved the spear in his hand and inserted it firmly into the chest of the black soldier.
With the sound of a rock bursting open, the black guards split from the middle and split into two.
The black knight who was standing on the edge of the chessboard moved. He came to the chessboard and dragged the split black guard out of the chessboard.Then the black knight and the king beside him stared at the chessboard indifferently.
Both Benjamin and Draco fell into a long silence.
Finally, it was Benjamin who spoke first.
"So, if it was me just now, I would die, right?"
Draco nodded, but he felt that Benjamin's words were very unreasonable. No one would ever go to the front of the king.
Draco glanced at the horses under him, with the spear in his hand, sweat dripping from his forehead.
"Okay, haven't we discussed this just now? You just need to be serious and there will be no problem. Besides, you can still use magic..."
In fact, Draco himself found that his voice was getting lower and lower.
No matter how great Benjamin was, he was only a first-year student.
And this is clearly a magic used by an extremely superb wizard.
"Of course, I mean, the white pawn on the opposite side moved. It's our turn." Benjamin adjusted his crown, finally showing a little king's momentum.
Draco nodded, and again ordered the Black Knight to move forward.
As for Benjamin, he was almost in circles. As the key to the outcome of this game, he must be protected.
Slowly and continuously, chess pieces were pierced, beaten by stools, and crushed by horseshoes.
Then their expressionless faces, and no happiness or anger, were dragged out by other chess pieces.
When the other black knight was knocked out by the white queen, Draco even heard the woman's almost crazy laugh.
He couldn't help but feel a chill.
Benjamin's face was getting worse and worse.
