The chessboard was already set up.
Mofan suddenly had a question in his mind.
Since it was a game of chess, who was the King of Darkness playing against?
Could it be him and himself?
Was it a split chess game?
Soon, a Black?? appeared in the position of the opposing faction. He was draped in a mountain-like cloak, and his half-illusory body even fluttered with the wind.
His true appearance was not visible. Only a pair of green eyes were staring at the chessboard with anticipation and excitement.
Was that the King of Darkness?
The chessboard was set up, and the players were about to take their positions.
They couldn't feel the slightest bit of pressure from that fellow. It was more like a ghost. Other than the feeling of being stared at, which made them involuntarily feel fear, this cloaked figure of Black Mountain didn't bring any hostility to anyone.
It was as if he was only here to play chess, and had no other intentions.
"It should be a clone of the King of Darkness," Asha'ria whispered to Mofan.
"Has anyone seen his true appearance?" Mofan asked.
Asha'ria shook her head.
The King of Darkness had countless doppelgangers, and his doppelgangers could even descend into the normal world. His actions had always been very strange. One could not sense his greed, aggression, or ambition, but any dark arts were related to him.
He would sometimes grant powerful dark magic to people he liked. At other times, he would accept sacrifices from dark magicians. At other times, he would bring calamities, plagues, and start wars between small countries …
He was unpredictable, but at the same time, he was terrifying.
One of the King of Darkness's main clones was standing at the enemy's camp. He was a very focused player.
His green eyes were fixed on the chessboard, as if he was analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of both sides. He was also thinking about how to play the game.
"The King of Darkness is on our side. That's great, the King of Darkness is on our side," Magician Shang Yun was overjoyed.
The King of Darkness was on their side. This meant that the King of Darkness would do everything he could to win.
"We're so lucky. The King of Darkness is on our side," the others smiled.
"Who's the opponent? Let's hope it's an idiot. That way, we can walk out of here alive."
…
Mofan had been paying attention to the players on his side.
Chess pieces mainly represented combat power and the laws of strength and weakness. In order to win, the key was still how the chess player controlled it. If they encountered a retard who sent the king to the enemy's chess pile at the beginning, it would be useless no matter how many Black Dragon Emperors they had.
Mofan turned his head and waited for the Go player to appear.
Finally, a beam of light that was as dim as a blue firefly landed on the back of the chessboard. It was also a very towering semi-illusory figure. Judging from its physique, it should be a human.
What was certain was that the man had used some kind of Chaos Technique to project him to the opposite side of the King of Darkness.
However, when Mofan raised his head again and saw the face of this projected body, his jaw almost dislocated from opening too wide!
Why is it him!!
The one playing chess with the Dark King was actually this guy!!!
Why???
Mofan was shocked for a long time. His eyes never left the Go player.
Meanwhile, the Go player seemed to have noticed Mofan's gaze. He waved at Mofan with a wry smile and said, "I tried my best to put you on the same side, but it's up to you whether you can survive or not."
…
Magic City …
There was a small garden under the apartment of the South Wing Platoon.
In the middle of the garden, there was a small pavilion paved with pebbles and marble. A pale-faced man was sitting on a stone bench, staring at the stone table.
The stone table was very strange. Its surface was as smooth as a mirror, but the image on the table was not a reflection, but a chessboard. Some parts of the chessboard were crowded with people, while other parts had a dark creature that was many times smaller than its original size.
It was like a chessboard of beasts. There were humans, monsters, and demons on it, but it was obvious that they were not models. They were real living creatures, but they were many times smaller.
The man coughed. He seemed a little weak.
"Mubai, what are you doing? You're seriously injured. Why aren't you resting?" a member of the South Wing Platoon who was passing by asked.
"Nothing, I'm just playing chess," Mubai waved his hand, dismissing the man.
Opposite Mubai was a half-transparent shadow. He looked like an old man in his fifties, a chess fanatic. He was staring at the chessboard with a serious expression!
"You've chosen the piece you want, so I'll go first. Do you have any objections?" the half-transparent shadow asked.
Mubai gestured for the shadow to go first.
…
The Dark Plane …
On the chessboard, Mofan felt like his brain was running out.
The person playing chess with the Dark King was actually Mubai!
What was going on?
Why was Mubai involved with the Dark King?
"Explain yourself before the game starts," Mofan asked Mubai's projection.
"Didn't I die once? The Dark King took my soul away. He asked me to play chess with him. If he won, he would take my soul away, but if I won, he would release my soul, "Mubai said.
"That doesn't make sense, didn't we use the Night Amethyst in exchange for your life?" Mofan said.
"I lost," Mubai said bitterly. He added after a while, "The God of Darkness doesn't want to let me go, not to mention that I've lost the chess game. He was very happy when you gave him the Night Amethyst, so I told him that we didn't set the rules before the game started. Are we going to decide the winner in one game or two out of three? Our China likes to win two out of three games, to prevent the players from losing out due to nervousness. "
"I won the next two games. That's how I managed to survive, "Mubai said.
Mofan opened his mouth. He did not expect Mubai's soul to have such an exciting time with the Dark King while he was in the coffin.
"So what's going on now?" Mofan asked.
"It's obvious that he has a bargaining chip to play chess with me again. He wants to win back what he lost last time," Mubai said.
"What bargaining chip?" Mofan was confused.
However, Mofan immediately realized the answer after asking the question.
What bargaining chip?
The bargaining chip was obviously him!
He had fallen into the Dark Plane, and the Dark King was omniscient. He had told Mubai that he was in the Dark King's Chessboard of Death, and asked if Mubai was willing to play another game with him.
The Dark King did not like bargaining chips. He preferred to trade. It was his principle most of the time.
