Chapter 1578 The Clash of Black and White!
What shocked Ye Chuyun even more was that he could clearly see the "colors" of the chessboard.
Centered on himself, the pieces occupying about one-third of the chessboard, including himself, faintly emitted a black glow.
Meanwhile, the pieces occupying two-thirds of the board emit a faint white glow.
This faint black and white light can only be seen by those who have been promoted to the rank of soldier.
He didn't notice this change at all when he was at the pawn level.
It seems that pawns are truly cannon fodder in every sense of the word...
The black and white pieces are interlocked and confront each other, like two giant dragons and snakes fighting on the chessboard.
In the upper left corner of his field of vision, two simple numbers appeared:
[Black's Spiritual Essence: 10500]
【White Square Spiritual Melody: 22300】
"Black and white chess pieces?"
"It seems that this Myriad Spirits Chess Game is not a simple individual upgrade game, but a factional confrontation." Ye Chuyun suddenly understood, and many of her previous doubts were instantly resolved.
"I belong to the black side. All the black pieces are my comrades, while all the white pieces are enemies that need to be defeated and devoured."
"The process of an individual consuming the opponent's pieces to gain spiritual energy, level up, and acquire inheritance is merely a step. The ultimate goal is to have one's own faction's 'total spiritual energy' consume the opponent's faction's total spiritual energy."
"This game may only end when one side's spiritual energy is completely reduced to zero or completely absorbed."
"The biggest opportunity will likely arise after that."
Ye Chuyun noticed that when a black piece on her side devoured a white piece, not only did the individual piece gain spiritual energy, but the total spiritual energy of her side would also increase by a corresponding value.
However, the overall spiritual energy of the white side will decrease, and vice versa.
"This means I can't just focus on upgrading myself; I also need to have a broader perspective."
"We should try our best to help our own pieces devour white pieces and strengthen the overall strength of the black side."
"At the same time, be careful of being hunted down by the white's high-level pieces, which could cause the black to lose its spirit."
His gaze swept across the vast chessboard, where he spotted some black pieces of higher rank, namely "Knights" and "Generals."
These black pieces are engaged in a fierce battle with the equally powerful white pieces.
We also saw some weak black "pawns" being easily devoured by white "soldiers," causing a slight decrease in black's overall spirit.
"It seems we need to adjust our next action strategy." Ye Chuyun began to plan rapidly.
"Prioritize finding lone white pieces to devour, quickly increasing your strength and level."
"After leveling up, you can try to cooperate with other black pieces nearby to hunt down stronger white pieces, or go to rescue weak black pieces that are being attacked."
"The ultimate goal is to lead the black side to devour all the white pieces and win this game of the Myriad Spirits Chess Game."
Having figured all this out, Ye Chuyun felt that her goal was clearer than ever before.
He took a deep breath, feeling the changes that came with being promoted to "soldier".
In addition to his movement speed increasing to 7/7, he discovered that he had gained another ability.
It can slightly boost the "morale" of other black pieces within a certain range around itself.
This means a slight enhancement to their fighting spirit and reaction speed, which comes from the blessing of the [Breaking Army Spear Technique].
He immediately locked onto a white pawn that was roaming around.
The white piece seemed unaware of the approaching danger.
"Let's start with you, and seize the first essence for my Black Faction!"
Ye Chuyun used her mind to move her chess piece, which quickly crossed squares and approached the white pawn in just a few moves.
The white pawn seemed to sense the danger and tried to turn and escape.
He's not stupid; he clearly can't beat the other party, so why would he offer his spiritual essence to them?
As long as he is outside the opponent's movement range, he can temporarily escape danger.
But Ye Chuyun was faster, instantly stepping into the grid point where he was located.
The space where divine will clashed unfolded.
Ye Chuyun directly activated the [Breaking Army Spear Technique] that she had just acquired.
Although it is only a preliminary grasp, the indomitable spirit is already beginning to take shape.
The white pawn was not weak in combat awareness, but its resistance seemed pale and powerless in the face of Ye Chuyun's overwhelming attack at the "soldier" level.
The confrontation ended almost instantly, with little suspense.
The phantom of the white pawn dissipated, and a wisp of spiritual light surged into Ye Chuyun's body.
His experience level increased slightly, and at the same time, the number in the upper left corner of his field of vision also changed.
[Black's Stance: 10500 → 10650]
[White Square Spiritual Melody: 22300 → 22150]
"It works!" Ye Chuyun's spirits lifted.
Not only did they improve, but the overall strength of the Black faction was also slightly enhanced.
He relentlessly searched for his next target.
His strategy was clear: target lone white pieces and devour them swiftly with lightning speed.
Accumulate small victories into a big one, and quickly snowball your fortunes.
Ye Chuyun's actions quickly attracted the attention of the other black pieces nearby.
At first, the black pieces were just watching from the sidelines, but after Ye Chuyun swallowed four or five white pieces in a row, some of the black pieces began to waver.
When Ye Chuyun's level reached level 6, he noticed that two black pawns and a soldier began to follow his movement trajectory intentionally or unintentionally, moving around on the grid points within a certain range around him.
They didn't get too close; they seemed to still be observing, but their intentions were already quite clear.
They believed that following Ye Chuyun would give them a greater chance of survival and obtaining spiritual energy.
Ye Chuyun understood.
This was exactly the effect he wanted.
Individual strength is ultimately limited, especially in such a massive confrontation between factions.
He needs help, he needs to unite the forces of the Black side.
He stopped and turned to face the three men in black who were following him.
He realized that his previous conversation with Wang Dadan was a special case.
Under normal circumstances, he cannot communicate with other pieces.
It seems that direct communication is only possible in a state of divine confrontation or under specific circumstances, but he can emanate a friendly and guiding wave through his thoughts.
At the same time, he also actively activated his newly acquired abilities, slightly boosting the "morale" of the surrounding black players.
A wave of inspirational energy emanated from Ye Chuyun and spread outwards, enveloping the three black pieces.
The three black phantoms visibly trembled, and the faint black light emanating from their bodies seemed to brighten slightly. Their gazes toward Ye Chuyun held a newfound trust.
Ye Chuyun tried to convey simple instructions using her thoughts.
He raised his hand and pointed to a lone white pawn to his side, then pointed to himself, making a mental gesture of "I'll go."
Then, he pointed to two white pawns gathered together in the distance, and then to the three black pieces following him, making a mental gesture that said, "You, together."
