Entering the pure white space for the third time, Abe was greeted by Fanny's smiling face.
Fanny's appearance is outstanding, and there are very few anchors in the interstellar era who are not outstanding in appearance. When she is not aggressive, she has an intellectual charm. Her expression was now a little gentler, which was flattering.
At least that's what Izawa thinks.
In the previous two discussions, Fanny looked at people with her chin raised, without even glancing at Abe from the corner of her eyes. This time when they met again, her aura softened a lot, and she nodded to Abe.
Ize immediately expressed his credit for Aibe, "This time the blue team made a horizontal move, all thanks to Aibe's quick reaction. I think they had a plan for a long time."
"well done."
Fanny also recognized Abe's performance, but she was still a little critical and said: "Although you acted on your own this time, you avoided the trap set by the blue team for us in time and made up for it. So the playground is really Are there any Blue players?"
Before her question could be answered, the leader's election beam fell on their heads. This time, the red light stayed on Abe for an extra long time, longer than Ize, as if she had extra votes this round. But in the end, the red light still hit Fanny's head, scattering red shadows and forming a red circle at her feet.
Fanny's tight mouth relaxed.
Abe glanced over her body and smiled.
This was the reason for Fanny's enthusiasm for her.
It was done not only for the audience outside the venue, but also for her to see. As the main chess player, she missed the important information given by Abe, which was a big mistake, so she had to make up for it afterwards. Furthermore, if Abe is really elected as the main chess player, then it is always right to show her good intentions in advance. At least she cannot immediately turn her back and restrict Fanny.
But she was much more confident than Fanny, and she didn't think Fanny would lose this round.
A rational analysis can tell that her performance is not extraordinary enough to impress Fanny's many basic audiences. There is a huge gap in votes between the two of them. It is possible to get closer, but they will not surpass each other. The reason why the red light stayed on her body longer was probably because TT Company was just trying to create suspense.
Fanny was troubled.
She is worried about her and wary of her.
The main chess player has not changed, and the discussion session is still chaired by Fanny. She asked again about the appearance of the blue player in the amusement park, and Abe answered truthfully, and showed that the player was not only the blue player, but also a candidate for the consulship.
"impossible!"
As soon as the words came out, she found that her face changed too quickly. She softened her tone and said, "I mean, is it possible that such an easily discovered option is a deception? You also said that the person discovered was an unknown person. For a boy who is over 18 years old, this is inconsistent with the requirements of governing."
To her surprise, Abe nodded, as if he was acknowledging her words. On the contrary, Ize actually spoke for Abe, not only repeating Abe's "system balance theory", but also telling her that the other party might be The consul's process was described in great detail, and the implication was that he had witnessed it with his own eyes, and Abe was not lying.
Halfway through, he suddenly noticed something and was a little confused. Could this be the reason why Abe called him over
Unlike the first time, he had doubts about her because he had not seen it with his own eyes. This time he witnessed the scene in person, and when Fanny refuted it, he consciously rushed to the front line to defend her conclusion.
Look at the gray-haired girl next to her. She lowers her head, looks at her nose, her nose is closed, her mouth is concerned, and she behaves extremely well-behaved.
Ize: “…”
Fanny's face changed slightly after hearing this: "You two are communicating without me knowing?"
"Do you know this will reveal your identity?"
The two of them were silent for a while. Ize had not yet reacted, while Abe quietly gave Fanny a smile.
This smile was like a provocation, as if telling her that the situation had changed, and now she and Ize were in alliance to isolate her. Fanny instantly became angry, and the apparent peace could hardly be maintained.
"This problem has already happened, and there is no point in discussing it anymore." Abe reminded sweetly in a low voice, "Don't waste time."
Fanny didn't pursue it any further, but she couldn't hide the coldness in her eyes.
"According to the current situation, there are two consuls in the chess game. The consul of the city hall who appears first is a, and the consul of the playground is b. Izawa has already said about the news about b, I am responsible for consul a. Let me explain the situation.”
"First, after my observation, Archon A is a player."
"Second, there are many similarities between the information about Archon A and the real Archon."
After she showed her professional side, Ize also entered the game state. Hearing this, he asked her: "How do you judge?"
Their live broadcast platform is shared, and the barrage will reveal a lot of information, but everyone has their own tasks to do and cannot pay attention to the barrage for a long time. In order to avoid getting biased and wrong information from the audience, they will not take the initiative to check this aspect. barrage.
Most of the time they open the barrage just to see the feedback on their performance.
Fanny: "I found a few friends of the Archon. You know, the defenders are the same as us. Apart from the functional chess, there are only three active main chess, that is, themselves. Now everyone has limited funds and cannot buy too many chess pieces. Multi-function chess, it is impossible for them to invest all the main chess in such an irrelevant identity. Therefore, these people cross-tested that the information they got must be correct. This is what I call the 'real Archon' material'."
"According to my observations, regardless of diet, exercise, daily routine, Archon A is exactly the same as in the data."
"This doesn't mean anything." Ize shook his head and said, "Anchors all have a certain ability to disguise themselves. It's not difficult to imitate this character. But when you say this, I think it's just a trick they set up to confuse the audience."
What he said was refuted by Ize, and Fanny's face showed an unhappy look, "Listen to me first. It's just that there is still a lack of strong evidence. So there is another important message."
"I thought those friends were very important and should be key NPCs, so I visited them many times. It wasn't until I was allowed to enter the study of one of them that I opened up clues about the Archon's memories. Later, I asked several other NPCs for confirmation. , ultimately ensuring the accuracy of the information.”
"The real Archon went on an adventure with his friends when he was young. He once had his eyeball scratched and underwent eye replacement surgery. The surgery is in-depth key information, not basic information. I believe that the people on the blue side could not have known this information from the beginning. .”
Next to him, Abe was also thinking carefully about the importance of this message.
As the defender, the blue team can have the advantage of obtaining basic information, such as eating habits, exercise preferences, etc. mentioned by Fanny earlier. Those friends of the real Archon can easily give out basic information, but in-depth information needs to be dug out persistently, or it may be opened by coincidence at a certain opportunity.
So Fanny is right. Blue should not know this information. As long as they don't know, it's impossible to fake it.
Ize: "Have you verified it? That Archon A."
"Not yet. If this verification is successful, the identity of the other party can be determined. But this task is not convenient for me." Fanny pushed up her glasses and said in a cold tone, "My role has not been discovered by the other party yet, and My status as a city hall will expose my abnormal behavior to their eyes, making it inconvenient for me to act."
If you think about it carefully, you will know that this is a "scoring point". The identity of Archon A will be "revealed" during this operation, which can focus the audience's attention. Fanny got the clue, but couldn't go on stage in person due to interests.
But the identity of Abe, who is on the same team, has been discovered. Ize's identity is relatively easy to guess. They cannot bring all the chess pieces to the table. She must hide her identity.
Ize looked at her face, looked at Abe, and then hesitated: "Then let Abe go?"
Although the true identity of the consul is important, weapons are also indispensable. As a weapons researcher, it is inconvenient for Izawa to go on a mission. Among the three, Abe is the best.
Fanny's eyes flashed and she looked directly at Abe, "The opportunity is given to you. I hope you won't let us down."
Back in the world of chess, Abe and Ize once again had a private video call.
Fanny did not stop them in time and effectively, so Ize naturally did not take her words to heart. Moreover, his identity is special. No matter how he conceals it, as long as he gets close to the weapons project, the people on the blue side will find out sooner or later. He does not participate in other tasks, and his identity is not important.
For Abe, the team relationship between the three people is subtle, and Ize is the weight that both she and Fanny want. She doesn't need this weight, but she will never let others weigh it on her scale.
It just so happened that she didn't understand a lot about the game and needed an explanation.
Abby: "I have a question."
Ize: "You say."
"Can't the players on the blue side... be killed one by one?"
It says "kill the Archon", but it doesn't mean "can only kill the Archon". If you rule it out one by one, you can always guess it right.
But the curiosity in Abe's voice was innocent and positive, which made people feel a little chilled. It doesn't feel like playing a game, but like actually killing people.
Ize just thought that she was stimulated by Fanny, and immediately shook his head and said: "The chess game cannot be played like this."
"Um?"
She looked at him with clear and clear eyes, as if asking, "Didn't you say that chess players move freely?"
"The life and death chess settings are hidden here." Izawa raised his hand to rub his forehead with a headache, "You must have experienced it when playing games. With three cards, if you choose the wrong card, you will be judged to have failed. No. It'll give you a second chance. Have you ever seen a game that lets you try and make mistakes one by one?"
"Similarly, the same goes for the chessboard world. This is also a balancing act made by the game system. Usually in this type of chess game, there are 'chess pieces that kill the game', which is the same for both of us. For our attacking side, It is said that the living chess piece is the real governor in this chess game. If we kill him, we can win. So this chess piece is a dead chess piece for the defender."
"Similarly, if we kill the deception set up by the defenders, that is, the fake consul, we will pick up a dead move and will be judged to have failed immediately."
The chess players are indeed free to move, but if they are not careful, they will lose everything. This is the interesting part of the chess game.
The chess game that is supposed to be a battle of wits will lose its meaning if it turns into pure killing. Therefore, there are many hidden laws in the chessboard world.
"This is all based on our experience in plot&chess in the past. It is really a disadvantage for a newcomer like you."
But in this era, there are only a handful of people who have never played PC chess. I am afraid that even the titr company did not expect that there would be players who were novices in PC chess in the live broadcast competition.
Abe: "But there are three of them. If we can't kill the remaining two, we will be at a great disadvantage."
"No, if three is used as the number, to ensure fairness, there must be only one real dead chess piece. Among the three people, there is a real consul, a fake consul, and an ordinary chess piece."
"In this way, until now, there is still one person from the blue team who has not shown up."
Ize then frowned and took the opportunity to warn: "...Yes. Blue Fang hid it so well that we can't be sure whether the person in the city hall is a cover-up or a real person. So don't act without authorization."
Abe: "Am I such a person?"
"...No need to doubt it, you are."
Abe's impulse to do things can be seen in Abe's various actions in choosing the identity of the playground and temporarily changing the target person. Although in hindsight, her choices are all wise, her "gambling nature" can also be seen from it.
Either win everything or lose everything. What such people do is always frightening.
He didn't want to lose everything with her, so it would be safer to play it safe.
"Anyway, I will approach him first to verify his identity."
His eyelids twitched unconsciously, "How do you want to get close to him?"
Abe smiled sweetly: "I won't tell you."
“…”
"Welcome to the virtual city that never sleeps, my friends."
"Today, I'm going to let you see what a bar in the barbaric era was like."
A well-dressed man with a gentle appearance, while nodding reservedly to the guests, communicated with the audience "outside the venue" in his mind, and his lively tone was full of showoff.
[ Rubbish. ]
[ hehe. ]
[ Defective products. ]
Unfortunately, viewers in the exclusive area who were able to interact with him in time gave short and mean comments.
If it were a normal live broadcast, he would have received many comments of amazement, but in this special game, the ordinary spectators who would have supported him had already been blocked from the stadium.
So there were only a few cold comments left in his comment area.
For these interstellar bosses, a party of this level is really uninteresting. Of course, part of the reason is attributed to the anchor's own positioning. He just uses a "scold" tone to attract the audience. Over time, the audience became accustomed to getting along with him in this way, which is his characteristic.
The anchor's enthusiasm was not dampened at all. Instead, he laughed and said, "Don't say that. I know you guys are knowledgeable, but this is a virtual world, and there may be unexpected surprises!"
[How could Ultra allow such an anchor to play such an important role as "Archon". ]
[Bar and mission related? ]
[Don’t you understand this anchor’s style? He wants to come to the bar to play. ]
[Then again, the governor of the city hall may not be the most important of the three roles. ]
"You want me to spoil the story?" Mr. Archon A smiled easily, "I don't dare to disobey Otto's orders. All I can say is that the three characters are all important. Hahahaha, don't be angry, he will Of course I was made the consul because I am great. Not long ago, I got a clue... It was a little mouse in the red square, and I caught its tail."
"Of course I found it. She was snooping around me. Did she think I was a mindless NPC?"
He raised his eyebrows humorously.
For the sake of live broadcast effect, they will not show all the clips to the audience, leaving blank spaces between shots. However, small information disclosures to guide the audience to guess and solve the puzzle will bring higher "ratings."
At the same time, he also inadvertently demonstrated his abilities.
Even without Ultra's command, this is still a very mature anchor.
Someone in the audience complained that his coming to the bar was a "garbage time" during the live broadcast. He took the opportunity to throw out a line he had prepared long ago: "Don't you know that in situations like this, red players will appear."
[People from the red side come here? for what? ]
"Of course it's for..." He chuckled, "Me. I am now the most conspicuous target in the red side's eyes. They might want to attack me here."
