Chapter 1336: Playing Chess Is Such Fun
"Is it really just this left?"
Cyber Elf Alpha stared blankly at the last surviving Tianyuan.
The Nebula Great Whirlpool triggered by her had a power beyond her own calculations. Countless data surges had caused over twenty sets of planetary quantum computers to overheat and shut down, with more than a third of them issuing red alerts.
Now her peak computing power was only four thousand legend rank base units. If she overclocked further, more planetary quantum computer sets would overheat and shut down. Just the time to repair and replace parts would take weeks.
But, she still won.
The current star map could no longer make moves. This was the most unbelievable and closest to the mysteries of Starry Sky Chess that Cyber Elf Alpha had experienced since entering the world of Starry Sky Chess.
In the end, the only piece left on this star map was the initially unintended Tianyuan.
"Could it be... that's why that guy always insists on taking Tianyuan first?" Cyber Elf Alpha looked at the unmoving position of Tianyuan.
The essence of Starry Sky Chess is to use chess pieces to harness the power of the stars' paths. All other forms are just superficial, essentially simulating the rules of the stars.
Similar to occupying areas like in the game of Go, the strategies formed from this are just basic strategies for beginners.
"Who needs fixed strategies... not me!" It was only now that Cyber Elf Alpha fully understood this and realized why despite adjusting her algorithms countless times, she couldn't beat the Starry Sky Chess Master.
This game was the most exhilarating she had ever played, and the one from which she learned the most.
For the first time, she encountered something beyond the normal rules of Starry Sky Chess.
It's not that it's beyond the rules, but rather that all the rules understood by past Star Chess Players were incomplete, only a part of Starry Sky Chess.
Just like the Star Collapse tactic used by the Starry Sky Chess Master.
Like the Great Whirlpool chess pattern she had just learned.
These tactics and patterns were non-existent in the past fixed strategies, but in fact, they are the correct way to play Starry Sky Chess.
Using a star map as a game board and stars as game pieces to influence the trajectories of stars in Starry Sky Chess, there is no need at all for fixed rules like a fixed formula.
The stronger a Star Chess Player is, the less they can rely on fixed rules prepared for beginners.
A truly powerful Star Chess Player should be like a Starry Sky Chess Master, unable to predict the path and development of the game.
Every second, the star map changes, requiring all related algorithms and deductions to be updated.
This stage is much broader and more mysterious than Cyber Elf Alpha expected.
In the entire Endless God's Domain, since the appearance of the Starry Sky Chessboard, there might be only one person who truly knows how to play Starry Sky Chess.
Therefore, when he appears, the Starry Sky Chessboard will officially be open to everyone, because Endless God's Domain finally has someone who can control the Starry Sky Chessboard.
Before the Starry Sky Chessboard, those who are not ranked are like preschoolers in terms of skill level.
Ranked players are just starting their journey into elementary school by learning the basic rules of Starry Sky Chess.
If you can play chess really well, people might think you're a top player, but actually, you might just be in late primary school.
Someone like Cyber Elf Alpha, who has a very high ranking, can be considered to be at a high school level at best, thanks to Cyber Elf Alpha's unique advantage in extremely high calculation power from her Endless God's Domain.
As for the Starry Sky Chess Master, they graduated a long time ago.
The Nebula Great Whirlpool tactic that Cyber Elf Alpha has learned is like a high school student learning some knowledge that is usually taught in university. It's like seeing a blurry gate leading to a higher world.
However, reaching that gate is still far away, based on the differences in knowledge each side possesses.
The complexity of the problems for Cyber Elf Alpha is like a collection of many chaotic programs, requiring a small part of the calculations to overload all the quantum computers on different planets.
But for Yun Xi, it's just simple addition and subtraction.
In this game, Yun Xi actually only taught Cyber Elf Alpha two things.
The first one is how to set up a trap in an unstable star map to lure the enemy in and then use the Nebula Great Whirlpool tactic to go down together.
This tactic isn't something that can be used on all star maps, but it's a choice made by Yun Xi after seeing this particular star map. It's one of the advanced knowledge in Starry Sky Chess.
The second thing, let's go to Tianyuan.
Although not all star maps are like this, Tianyuan is a very important point that can maintain stability even in a large Nebula Whirlpool.
Cyber Elf Alpha, a good student who is humble in learning, handed in an outstanding answer sheet.
Well, not so important, Saint Demon's goal has been exceeded.
"Do you like it? If you do, I can accompany you to play chess in the future."
"May the gods bless you, Alpha." Without too much embellishment, just a calm and peaceful smile, a subtle hint, completely captivated the curious Cyber Elf Alpha!
"Okay!"
"Come with me!"
"We play chess together every day!"
Cyber Elf Alpha's views on good and evil are so pure. She finally found a opponent that can make her go all out again, and she must seize the opportunity!
The elusive Starry Sky Chess Master, A Cloud in the Sky, is nowhere to be found, so she has to use the "Three-eyed Holy Maiden" as a substitute.
She had spent countless resources on this, causing more than a tenth of the planetary quantum computer array to shut down just to win a single move against a strong opponent!
She can't wait to start the next game, she learned a lot from the previous one. If it wasn't for the Red Heart Queen's ball tonight, she would have made Saint Demon continue playing with her.
Finding an opponent who can match her strength is crucial for Cyber Elf Alpha!
Playing against opponents several levels lower than her is really boring.
"You... are truly a good girl..." Saint Demon held Cyber Elf Alpha's hand, his eyes filled with tenderness.
Everything went according to plan.
"You too..." The quantum crystal behind Cyber Elf Alpha glowed red and hot, a sign of extreme excitement.
Finally, she met the right person!
More precious than a hundred portions of the legend rank delicacy, more important than building ten thousand planets of quantum computing arrays, was the miracle that belonged to her.
Clumsy as a fawn, Cyber Elf Alpha was in a state of ecstasy.
"Snap!"
Under the stage, Flora smashed the plate in front of her, glaring angrily at Cyber Elf Alpha, who was holding hands with Saint Demon.
Alpha, this isn't chess!
