That day, Ant King had created his own move, [Seclusion]. However, he was defeated by Mai Mai. Only then did he realize that it was a dead end.
Originally, he was very interested in military chess and had no interest in anything else. However, he quietly listened to Mai Mai's account.
Mai Mai had created the move [Seclusion] ten years ago. She had named it [Lone Fox's Gambit], and it had caused a heated discussion at that time.
Mai Mai had created the move, but she had also killed it herself.
In a competition, Mai Mai's opponent had used [Lone Fox's Gambit]. At that time, Mai Mai had thought of a way to break it and won the competition.
From then on, [Lone Fox's Gambit] could no longer be seen in official competitions or books.
However, Ant King seemed to be walking on the path that Mai Mai had walked before. He had created [Lone Fox's Gambit] without knowing anything about it.
However, Mai Mai had come into contact with military chess earlier than before. Therefore, this move could only be called [Lone Fox's Gambit], and not [Seclusion], which Ant King had created himself.
This was first come, first served.
After this game of chess, Ant King had a clear understanding of human abilities. At the same time, he realized the gap between him and Mai Mai.
There were many kinds of strength.
After witnessing Mai Mai's strength on the chessboard, Ant King wanted to win against Mai Mai. That urgent desire to win made Ant King do something childish today.
He proposed a bet to Mai Mai. If Mai Mai lost, she would have to give him her left arm.
However, he had underestimated Mai Mai's awareness on the chessboard.
In Mai Mai's world, she didn't know anything except military chess.
Once she lost, she would become useless.
From this point of view, Mai Mai had made up her mind the moment she became a professional chess player. If she lost in the military one day, she would kill herself.
"I won't bet my left arm. I'll bet what I usually bet on, my life …"
When Mai Mai said that sentence, her expression and actions were the same as usual. There were no obvious fluctuations.
At that moment, Ant King's thoughts changed, and he realized that his actions were too childish.
Therefore, to show his disrespect, he tore off his left arm in front of Mai Mai.
When he did that, it happened to be when Nifebit was talking to Selina.
Nifebit sensed Ant King's actions through Circle, so she immediately rushed to the throne room.
She did not know why the Ant King wanted to harm himself, but her ability could heal injuries. Therefore, she had to rush to the Ant King's side as quickly as possible to treat his injuries.
Just like that, Selina was left alone in the huge square of the palace, standing in the rain.
Throne Hall, third floor.
The thick arm was casually tossed aside, and the chessboard was stained with blue blood.
Ant King's left shoulder was simply bandaged with a white cloth, but blood was still seeping out of the white cloth and dripping to the ground.
On the other side of the chessboard, Mai Tai's face was also stained with blood.
"Let's continue."
After severing one of his arms, Ant King's expression remained the same.
Although Mai Mai couldn't see, he could tell from their conversation that Ant King had cut off one of his arms. He couldn't help but be stunned. Even after hearing Ant King's request, he didn't respond.
"My King, you need to be treated immediately." Osiapf was shocked. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that his King would be influenced by a woman and do such a thing.
Ant King ignored Osiapf's words. He calmly looked at Mai Mai on the other side of the chessboard and said, "Let's continue. Don't make me say it again."
"My King!"
Osiapf shouted anxiously.
Before he could finish his sentence, Ant King's tail slapped him in the face, sending him flying and crashing into the wall.
Osiapf immediately stood up from the ruins and said in a determined tone, "This subordinate will call Nifebit. With your stamina, you can play while treating yourself. This is the greatest compromise this subordinate can make."
"If you don't even agree to this, please kill this subordinate with your own hands."
Upon hearing this, Ant King coldly looked at Osiapf and said, "Fine. Come over here. I'll give you a quick death."
Osiapf silently walked toward Ant King. He had already made up his mind that if he couldn't convince Ant King to treat him, he would have to atone for his sins with his death.
When Osiapf walked over, Ant King retracted his gaze and looked at Mai Mai. As if he didn't want to waste any time playing chess, he said, "It's your turn."
"I won't!"
Mai Mai roughly understood the situation and said unyieldingly, "If Lord Commander doesn't accept treatment, I won't play chess!"
Ant King's eyes narrowed. He controlled the needle on his tail and pressed it against Mai Mai's neck. He coldly said, "Let's play chess."
Mai Mai seemed to have realized something. Her body trembled, and tears even seeped out of the corners of her eyes.
Although she was very scared, she still stubbornly said, "I don't want to. If you want to kill me, then use military etiquette to take my life!"
"You bastard …"
Looking at Mai Mai's unyielding attitude, Ant King gritted his teeth. He knew that if he didn't agree to treatment, Mai Mai wouldn't continue playing chess with him.
He suddenly turned his head to look at Osiapf and said, "Go and call Nifebit over."
"Yes!"
Osiapf was overjoyed. However, before he left, he looked at Mai Mai with a complicated expression.
This woman …
When Osiapf walked out of the throne room, he bumped into Nifebit who was rushing over.
After quickly explaining the situation to Nifebit, Nifebit entered the chess room and activated the [Toy Repairer] ability to treat Ant King.
Nifebit's entire mind was focused on treating Ant King. In addition, Ant King's mind was still focused on the chessboard while he was treating Ant King. As such, Nifebit didn't have the chance to mention the Queen's last wish.
In a sense, since the birth of the King, the Queen had nothing to do with them.
Osiapf stood outside the door, quietly watching Mai Mai playing chess. Then he said something to Youpi who was guarding outside the door and walked outside.
Because Nifebit's treatment consumed a lot of Telekinesis, he couldn't use the Circle during the treatment, so this task could only fall on Osiapf.
However, compared to Nifebit's Circle, Osiapf's range was not large.
He came outside the palace, spread his wings, and flew to the top of the tower.
Standing there silently, he glanced at the rain that was getting lighter.
Osiapf had some struggles in his heart. He thought that Mai Mai's existence was extremely dangerous and might affect the King …
Thinking about these things, he didn't take Selina, who was standing alone in the distance, seriously at all.
Peijing City.
"The Circle has disappeared."
Law raised his eyebrows. Was it because he had used the Circle for too long, so he stopped to rest, or because …?
Based on the disappearance of the Circle and the vague details, some things couldn't be determined.
Because Osiapf's Circle was not as wide as Nifebit's, the Circle couldn't be seen from Peijing City.
Now the rain was getting lighter, and one of the opponent's personal guards may have consumed a lot of Telekinesis, so this was the best time to attack.
After sending this discovery to the fourth-dimensional apartment, the conclusion was to approach the palace slowly.
As long as the time consumed was taken into account, it was possible that the rain would completely stop when they arrived at the palace.
Of course, it was not ruled out that the lighter rain would become heavier again, but now was indeed an opportunity.
So, the Mosaic Ant Crusade team came out of the fourth-dimensional apartment and marched towards the palace.
They didn't know that the Ant King in the palace cut off his left arm for some reason, which was equivalent to putting the ninja pieces into a dead end in the left wing when the chessboard was laid out. That was the chess path between classical and modern.
In this way, if the left wing was at a disadvantage in the confrontation, it may fall into the abyss.
The only chess piece that could activate the left wing was the undetectable [Blade Servant] chess piece.
