The golden Go stone fell.
The entire chessboard rippled like water.
Ke Luo's brow furrowed as he inexplicably thought of his crew. Looking around, he saw that at some point, they had all been trapped in a golden cage.
Their hands clutched at the prison door, but no matter how hard they tried, the door would not budge.
There was simply no way to leave.
"You …" Before Ke Luo could speak, a golden tome appeared in front of him.
"This is the introduction to Go!"
"How far you can go will depend on your comprehension."
The bamboo hat man sat cross-legged on the chessboard. Ke Luo subconsciously flipped through the tome, but the contents were completely incomprehensible to him.
"I have no interest in doing these things with you!"
Ke Luo threw the tome to the ground, her eyes seething with rage. The tome he had thrown melted into the chessboard, disappearing without a trace.
"It seems you already know the rules!"
The bamboo hat man smiled.
"Who cares what bullshit rules you're talking about? I didn't even look at them.
Don't play these strange games with me. If you know what's good for you, hurry up and let me out! "
Ke Luo's eyes were sharp as he stared at the bamboo hat man, carefully searching for his true position.
Just now, his attack had passed through the bamboo hat man's body.
One could easily imagine that the one sitting here was not his true body. Ke Luo surmised … that the bamboo hat man's true body was definitely somewhere on the chessboard.
As long as he could find the true body and defeat it, he would be able to leave.
"You didn't look?
!”
The man in the bamboo hat silently let out a long sigh.
"Then I'm very sorry. If you can't defeat me here, you might be imprisoned here for the rest of your life."
With these words, the bamboo hat man took off his bamboo hat.
A mysterious smile appeared in his blue eyes.
"Until death!"
"What a joke!"
Ke Luo didn't care for any of this, his eyes brimming with arrogance and disdain. "I don't believe that you can keep me here forever."
"You can try."
Suddenly, the man in the bamboo hat took out an hourglass from his bosom and placed it on the edge of the chessboard. "I almost forgot, there's a time limit to placing your chess piece. If you don't place your chess piece within the time limit, I'll take something from you."
Not long after the man in the pocket finished speaking, the hourglass outside the chessboard began to count down. In less than half a minute, the sand of time in the hourglass ran out.
"Time's up … It's your turn to make your move!"
The man in the bamboo hat reminded him with a smile.
"Don't try to mystify me here. What can I do even if I don't make my move?"
Crow rebuked angrily.
"Are you sure you won't make a move?"
The man in the bamboo hat raised his head.
"No!"
Kelo's eyes widened, his expression filled with determination.
"Alright. Since you insisted on not making your move despite being warned, you've ruined this game of chess. You'll have to pay the corresponding price.
You didn't make a move. Actually, I could have taken your life. But since you're a beginner and a fellow human from outside the universe, I'm willing to give you another chance. This time … I'll take one of your eyes. "
The man in the bamboo hat muttered.
"Hahaha, then come and take it!"
Kelo's eyes blazed with disdain, but his nerves were taut, waiting for the moment the man in the bamboo hat's true form appeared before him so that he could kill him.
That way, he could leave this damned chessboard.
Alas … he was wrong.
Not long after the man in the bamboo hat spoke, Kelo seemed to sense the existence of some sort of law on the chessboard, as if some sort of contract had been signed.
"Which eye do you want?
!”
"My left eye!"
The man in the bamboo hat muttered to himself.
In a flash, Kelo saw a pair of invisible hands reach out from the chessboard and grab at him.
He struggled with all his might, unleashing all the energy of the universe.
All his attacks were futile.
He had no way to stop these hands from coming, until they touched his eyes.
"Ah!!!"
A miserable scream escaped Kelo's mouth.
He watched helplessly as his left eye was snatched away by the pair of hands and mysteriously disappeared.
But there wasn't even a drop of blood in his left eye.
All that was left was a black hole.
It was as if he had never had this left eye in the first place.
Losing an eye wasn't that scary.
Among the Universe Adventurers, as Universe Adventurers, they would encounter countless accidents. Losing an eye wasn't a particularly serious problem for them. What was important was that as long as they were alive, they could have all the possibilities.
Kelo didn't care about the eye.
What he was concerned about … was this strange chessboard that was leaking all over! He didn't know what kind of place this was. How could it take away his eyes so silently? Yet, he had no way of resisting.
"Alright … I'll take the eye. Now recalculate the time!"
The man in the bamboo hat smiled as he turned the hourglass upside down. The sand of time began to pour down bit by bit.
Kelo stared at the hourglass … and then looked down at the nearby man in the bamboo hat! "Just who are you!"
Kelo felt like he was going crazy. After his eye had been taken away, he truly couldn't maintain his composure.
Just what sort of damned place was this! He wanted to leave!! "You don't need to know who I am. All you need to do is treat me as your opponent in this game."
The bamboo hat man's tone was gentle. "Don't exceed the time. If you don't make your move, this time … your life will be mine!"
It was like a contract had been signed! Kelo's heart was instantly overwhelmed by fear. He stared in panic.
"I still don't know the rules of this game!"
"I just showed you …" the bamboo hat man said.
"I'm sorry, I didn't see it. Can you show me again?"
Kelo's tone was filled with pleading.
"I can't!"
In response, the bamboo hat man's tone left no room for negotiation.
"The first thing I showed you was the bearing of the humans of the Milky Way Galaxy.
You didn't see it yourself, so you can't blame me.
Just like how you invaded our Milky Way Galaxy. If I asked you to leave, would you have agreed? "
"I …" Kelo clenched his fists tightly.
Looking at the crisscrossing lines below, his mind went blank.
"Time's up. Make your move!"
"Ah!"
Kelo hurriedly grabbed a piece and casually placed it on the chessboard.
Right now, all he wanted to do was not to exceed the time limit and die. He was in no mood to care about anything else.
"You're sure you're going to put it here, right?"
"Place your move without regrets!"
The bamboo hat man narrowed his eyes, condensing another piece in his hand and placing it on the chessboard.
"It's your turn again. Make your move!"
