Chapter 116 Dolphin Chess Club

Chapter 116 Dolphin Chess Club
After Qian Lejin finished the call, he began to wait anxiously.

He took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a long puff.

"The most enjoyable thing about the Day of Imprisonment is that you can do whatever you want on this day. No matter how much you torture your body, you will be able to recover as usual on the next cycle. You know there are many veterans who are already somewhat desperate and have set up all kinds of weird organizations to do all kinds of things. I heard that someone spent a day tattooing all over his body in order to experience tattoos. There are also people who enjoy killing people, and every time, they kill the same person, because the other party can be resurrected on the next cycle. I also heard that a woman found many strong men."

At this time, a burly man over 1.9 meters tall walked out of the house, as big as a bear, and sat down on the steps nearby while talking.

Halfway through his speech, he turned his head and glanced at Fatty Qian: "Fuck, light one for me too, why don't you have good eyesight?"

Fatty Qian was amused: "Brother Qiu, which type are you?"

"What do you mean I belong to? I'm just chatting with you. I'm talking about other people who are mentally ill. I, Liang Qu, am an open-minded person. I won't do such a rotten thing as humiliating my ancestors and giving birth to a son without an asshole."

"I understand!" Qian Lejin nodded: "I joined him because Brother Qiu is one of the few decent people in this place. As for others, I really look down on them!"

This sturdy man had only known him for less than half a day, but the two of them had very similar personalities. They were both the kind of people who didn't care about details and liked to talk about loyalty and swearing.

Fatty Qian lit a cigarette for the other person.

"It's coming up!" The strong man took more than half of it in one gulp, then swallowed it into his lungs. After a while, he slowly spit it out.

"Cool!"

"You are prone to cancer!"

"I'm not afraid of anything. Even if I drank pesticide, I'll still be a good man next cycle day."

Qian Lejin nodded. This man was called Liang Qu, nicknamed Ball Brother. He worked as a brick carrier at a construction site. He was in his thirties, but he looked like he was almost fifty and people would believe he was.

The other party has no special features, except for his loud voice and great strength.

Moreover, he is really strong.

Especially this guy got his own card ring after clearing the level three times. With the help of the power of the card, he can lift a thousand pounds with one hand.

Even in the Awakener Association, he is considered a very powerful figure.

I also heard that he had a fight with someone before and used a [Giant Strength] card to lift a car and smash it into the opponent's face.

A fierce batch!
Qian Lejin was sitting next to him at this time, and then he took out two cans of beer from the backpack behind him.

Open it and hand the other person a can.

"Brother Qiu, I found a helper." Qian Lejin said at this time.

"Help? Have you told this place to others?" Liang Qu was stunned.

There are level scenes where numbered cards can be obtained, and each one is very important information, especially when only a few of them know it and others don't.

In this regard, the Awakener Association can be said to be the leader in this city.

In their hands, they have a lot of information that other memory collectors don't know, including possible or confirmed level scenes where numbered cards can be obtained, as well as the locations, difficulties, and strategies of many scenes.

However, there are actually not many level scenes with complete walkthroughs.

Sometimes, even with a guide, it is not easy to pass the level exactly according to the methods used by predecessors.

Moreover, if a level scene is completed too many times, it will change after a few cycles of similar situations, or simply disappear.

So there will always be old level scenes disappearing, and then new level scenes appearing.

Naturally, the rules and content of the newly appeared level scenes are also brand new.

"Yes, I told others." Qian Lejin admitted it readily.

Liang Qu nodded when he heard it and said, "Go ahead and look for it. At least you are an honest person. You did it and admitted it voluntarily. You are not like some people who did it but are stubborn and refuse to admit it until they die."

I don’t know what memories it brought back, but Liang Qu gritted his teeth and his face was full of hatred when he said this.

"That's what I thought. In fact, the news of this place has been leaked long ago. Besides, I'm looking for a real master, the leader I have recognized." Qian Lejin looked around at this time and said in a low voice.

"Leader? Ha, ha, bullshit. They are all a bunch of selfish, liars and swindlers." Liang Qu became even angrier.

Qian Lejin shook his head: "Luo Xi is different from others."

"What's the difference? He's a master, can he be better than that Lin?" Liang Qu showed disdain: "But even if it's that Lin, there's nothing he can do. Liar, liar!"

He clenched his fist, drank the beer in one gulp, and then crushed the empty can into an aluminum ball the size of a marble.

"To be honest, I've never seen that Lin Yixuan, but he is definitely not as good as Luo Xi." Qian Lejin looked serious, with a solemn look on his fat face.

"Impossible. There is no one in this world who is smarter than Lin. Even though that guy cheated me, he is indeed very capable. I admit that."

"Really? I heard that Lin Yixuan also came to the challenge in this scene, but he couldn't even pass the first level, so no one has ever obtained the numbered cards here."

"That's true, but I have to admit that this is really difficult. Anyway, I won't even try. I'm good at things that require physical strength, but playing chess requires thinking. My ancestors didn't have this kind of talent, so they can't produce such a smart brain."

At this time, several people walked out of the house.

They all looked ugly.

"No, I can't beat that old man. I can't even pass the first level, let alone challenge the second level. The old man's chess skills are too high. I doubt it. I have to find a professional chess player to challenge him successfully."

The person who spoke was a man wearing glasses, slightly fat, and bald. He kept wiping his sweat and continued, "Unless you find a professional chess player, and one with a very high rank, otherwise, there is no chance of passing this level."

"Then go find a professional chess player, and when you find one, force him to give you a memory card, and then bring him here. I don't believe it." Liang Qu stood up: "But you can't do that either. Before you came here, you boasted about how good you were at chess, as if you were really amazing, but in the end, you were exhausted as soon as you played on the field."

The bald man with glasses immediately became unhappy. He wiped his sweat and said in a cold voice, "What do you know? I fought with that old man for at least a hundred moves before I lost. If you have the ability, go up and compete. And I heard that the leader of your Awakener Association also came to challenge, but he still failed. I'm putting it this way. Even if a high-level professional chess player comes, it won't work. That old man's chess level is definitely above the national level. It's impossible for anyone to beat him. You guys, don't waste your thoughts. It's hopeless."

Just at this moment, a taxi stopped by the roadside.

Luo Xi opened the door and walked down.

The first person he saw was Qian Lejin, and then his eyes shifted to the building behind.

An old building, seamlessly connected to the surrounding shops, might be more appropriate if there was a sign saying "XX Physiotherapy Shop", but what was hung on it were the four big characters "Tuntun Chess Club".

Qian Lejin also saw Luo Xi and he immediately came forward.

"Luo Ju, you are here!"

The fat man's attitude was even more exaggerated than Luo Xi had imagined.

There's obviously an element of acting involved.

Based on Luo Xi's understanding of this fat man, he would not do anything without a purpose.

"Luo Ju, those are all members of the Awakener Association. The big guy is called Liang Qu, a giant warrior. His fighting power is even stronger than that Aunt Qin. His biggest wish is to see his wife and children. If you can help him, he will definitely work hard for you."

Fatty Qian said in a low voice, speaking as fast as chanting a sutra. Luo Xi naturally understood Fatty Qian's plan.

This is to help yourself find an expert.

Moreover, the other party already has a plan.

For Luo Xi, he doesn’t care whether there are experts to help him or not. It would be good if there are experts to help him, but he is not afraid if there are none.

Fatty Qian’s speech speed is indeed fast and his words are very clear. He can get the key points across in just two sentences.

"There's a scene in it where you play chess with an old man. You play a game with one [Memory]. If you win, you get three [Memory] back, and you can challenge the second level. If you win the second game, you get a numbered card, but we don't know what the numbered card is, because no one has been able to pass the first level yet."

"Playing chess?"

"Yes, chess!"

Luo Xi nodded.

Luo Xi did hint at Fatty Qian joining the Awakener Association, and since the other party could understand it, it meant he was not stupid.

Great potential.

Luo Xi likes reliable people.

Especially during the days of confinement, you must find someone reliable. If he is not reliable, then at least he must have extraordinary abilities in some aspect.

Either they are strong in combat, strong in resistance to attack, or good at gathering intelligence.
No one will look down upon someone who is incompetent and unreliable.

"But won't they cause trouble for you because of your blatant rebellious behavior?" Although Luo Xi knew that Qian Lejin must have his own plans and had already planned them out, he was still very curious.

So he asked directly.

"Anyway, I don't plan to stay in the Awakener Association for long. Besides, Liang Qu over there doesn't care about this. If I hide it from him, he will be disgusted. When making friends with someone like him, honesty is the first priority. As for whether I am a traitor or not, he doesn't care because he doesn't want to stay in the Awakener Association anymore."

"Luo Ju, that Liang Qu is really powerful. If I can pull him over, it will be a great achievement. If he is willing to help you, basically you don't have to worry about the physical combat."

Luo Xi glanced at Qian Lejin.

Then his eyes swept over to the tall and strong Liang Qu over there.

Although the fat guy always talks nonsense, he is still very reliable. The standard for judging is very simple. If the fat guy says how great he is, then he is bragging; if the fat guy says how great others are, then it means that the other person is really great.

But since Fatty took the initiative to take on this matter, Luo Xi would not worry too much about it. He would just let Fatty act as a matchmaker. It would not matter if it succeeded or not.

What Luo Xi is focusing on now is the level scene called Tun Tun Chess Club.

"Playing chess? It seems like it's been a long time since I last played."

Luo Xi ignored everyone else and walked straight into the chess club.

It was very clean inside, with a counter and a young man standing there, because the chess club also sold some goods.

"If you want to play chess, go inside!" The young man pointed to the back of the chess club.

Behind the bookshelf over there, there is a table. An old man is sitting there with a chessboard in front of him. The old man is holding the white piece in one hand and the black piece in the other, and is playing chess with himself.

Many people have tried playing chess with themselves.

Some people find it meaningless and boring; but some people enjoy it and see it as a fun way to relax and entertain themselves.

Luo Xi belongs to the latter.

He even had a vague memory that among the many personalities that had been defeated by him, there was also one who liked to play chess.

But this kind of memory is invisible and intangible. At most, it is like a blank piece of paper. Only by carefully touching it with your hands can you vaguely feel a faint trace.

It doesn't seem real, and it might even be just an illusion, an inexplicable fantasy.

When Luo Xi walked in, the old man opposite also looked up.

"Want to play chess?" the old man asked.

His eyes were cloudy, his gray hair was messy, and he looked very thin and skinny, like an old scholar obsessed with some kind of research. Although he looked shabby and sloppy, he also had a convincing sense of authority.

From the other party's sitting posture, the fingers holding the chess piece, and the chessboard in front of him, all of this formed a very harmonious scene. Although there was no sound, it seemed that the words "this old man is a chess master" were filled in my ears.

Luo Xi smiled and nodded.

"sit!"

The old man immediately cleared the chess pieces on the board.

At the same time, the Awakener Association and the Go master invited by the bald man with glasses also came in.

They stood around expertly.

"Where did this young man come from? He has no idea how high the heaven is and how deep the earth is." The bald man with glasses muttered.

Obviously, he didn't think highly of Luo Xi at all.

Even if he doesn't know the other person at all and doesn't understand this person.

It's completely subjective.

With a natural "hostility", I am worried that the other party will win, but also afraid that the old man will lose.
Because then, wouldn't he become a clown?
"Shh, stop making noise." Qian Lejin frowned and said impatiently, then added: "Let's go, there's nothing for you to do here."

"Yes, go back. I feel annoyed just looking at you." Liang Qu added.

Mainly because An Zhiyan arranged for him to invite this "Go master" to conquer the level scene of the Tun Tun Chess Club, otherwise, he would not bother to come.

In the Awakener Association, Liang Qu actually belongs to the An faction.

Because all matters big and small in the association are now arranged and coordinated by An Zhiyan, as for Lin Yixuan, it seems that he has been very busy in the past dozen days, but no one knows what he is busy with. In short, Lin Yixuan has almost given up on the affairs within the association.

"Fuck it, are you guys planning to destroy the bridge after crossing it?" The bald man with glasses was unhappy.

A man lives on his face and a tree lives on its bark. The most important thing for a middle-aged greasy man is his face.

"Hasn't the reward been given to you? Moreover, we also paid for the memory card used for playing chess. You didn't lose anything on this trip. Why, are you still not satisfied? You lost because you didn't have the ability. Don't you want me to admit that you are not good enough? It's obvious that you are not that good." Liang Qu raised his eyebrows, insisting on being realistic.

The bald man with glasses took a look at Liang Qiu's muscles and size, suppressed his dissatisfaction, and suddenly sneered: "I understand, you are double insurance. You invited me and others at the same time. Okay, I have nothing to do. Let's see what this young man can do. If he wins, I will return all the commission cards I gave you before. Not only that, I will also compensate you with two [Memory]."

"Hey, that's what you said." Qian Lejin sneered. He had disliked this guy for a long time. He was troublesome from the beginning. Not only was he slow, but he also liked to put on airs. If there were no other people watching, he would have hit the old guy with a club.

WTF!
