Infinity: Our Zhongzhou team is really amazing!

Chapter 216 Xiangnan
In the world of mind, under the doomsday sky, the sound of lightning and thunder can be heard from time to time in the thick fog.

The demon still stood firm, and the giant dragon had already stretched out its huge body from behind the clouds.

At this moment, it seemed that only demons and dragons existed in this city, and they only had eyes for each other.

More and more pieces are placed on the chessboard.

As Chu Xuan's thinking time got longer and longer and he used his brain more and more, a few strands of his hair turned gray and wrinkles appeared at the corners of his eyes.

Although it was just a battle on the chessboard, the complex calculations performed by the two people behind the scenes were astronomical, enough to cause a supercomputer to crash.

Chu Xuan kept pinching the white piece in his hand, and finally after thinking for ten minutes.

200 hands!
A white piece slashed horizontally in the center of the chessboard, and the black chess veins were bitten off by the white pieces!

The clone Chu Xuan could feel that the other party's computing power was constantly increasing. It had increased tenfold compared to the beginning, but it was also obviously approaching its limit.

In these moves, both sides have entered the stage of a bloody battle. The black pieces are attacking and capturing cities and strongholds on the board, constantly eating up one piece of white chess's protrusion after another.

But White has established a chain defense, constantly wearing down Black's edge through endless counterattacks.

Now, it depends on who will give up first.

Both sides are ready to fight to the death!
Lean, pull, twist, flip and hit!
Broken, long, flying, and sharp!
In the perception of the two, the entire building and even the entire city began to shake uneasily, the earth was breaking, and the light was disappearing.

The sky is falling, heavy rain, hurricane, meteorite, earthquake.

Under the natural disaster, only this small piece of world is unaffected, and black and white continue to dance in this dilapidated command room.

Finally, 214 moves——

Chu Xuan made his move, and it collided with the front peak of the oncoming black piece with its pointed tip.

Flying, corner hanging, jumping, just a few moves, the war spread to the heart of the black spot, even threatening the most important "star".

The chessboard made a crisp vibration sound, and the lights in the entire building flickered on and off, as if the light was about to return.

The replica raised an eyebrow slightly.

好棋
And it's a good move for a desperate fight
The giant dragon raised its head high, and its sharp horns pointed at the slightly tired black chess eye.

Through continuous attrition, the black chess's killing power is no longer as unmatched as it was at the beginning.

At this time, if the white chess piece, which has been oppressed to the limit, makes a desperate attack, it may be possible to cut off the devil's head formed on the chessboard.

However, this move also carries huge risks.

White's strongest attack, at the cost of everything, undoubtedly exposes the most vulnerable center.

Just one beautiful horizontal slash is enough to cut the dragon in half!

In the eyes of the clone, thick black flames were already emerging from this chess move, becoming the deciding factor for Chu Xuan to actively seek a fight!
And this is the moment he has been waiting for.

"Not a bad counterattack." The clone Chu Xuan praised.

"With his limited strength, he manipulated the overall situation on the chessboard, using a single piece as the core, and orchestrated a dazzling display of coordination. Furthermore, he took a gamble at a dangerous moment."

The clone turned and looked out the window.

Buildings collapsed, roads twisted, and the city was destroyed by the war between demons and dragons. The demon's huge wings were torn by the dragon, its scales shattered, and black blood spilled onto the ground.

It seems that we have begun to lose the upper hand.

"But, this piece on the right is too thin. In order to hide that final move, you had to put all your strength into it in advance. Now, if it breaks here," the clone Chu Xuan pointed to the upper left corner and said calmly, "then the entire game will be affected by this one point."

"Thus, the possibility of a draw is completely lost."

He didn't say win, because in the thinking of the clone Chu Xuan, Zhongzhou had the possibility of winning from the very beginning.

Even the current trend of equalization was just a situation that he deliberately condoned for the sake of his calculations.

The clone closed his eyes, and as the calculation deepened, a circle expanded around him, capturing all the traps within the circle.

It's very simple and there is nothing wrong with it.

The purpose has been achieved.

Then, the clone opened his eyes, and invisible ripples condensed in his eyes.

He reached deep into the chess pieces and pulled out a huge sword with black flames.

brush!
The black sword accurately hit the vital point of the white chess piece. The decisiveness and cruelty of this move made Chu Xuan lose his mind for a second.

"Wake up, Zheng Zha." The clone chanted the devil's real name.

hold head high--

Long, ancient, and hateful, the howling sound that condensed all the grief and indignation in the world came from far away, and a doomsday-level demon bathed in black fire stood up!

It's like a new life.

The peaceful deadlock was finally and violently broken. The devil's real name was called out, revealing his hideous face, and he made a desperate attempt in the center of the city!
An upside-down black crown was placed on the demon's terrifying head, and boundless flames surrounded his huge body.

The breath of death and withering rushed down from the top of his head, and the black mist spread further into the sky!

From afar, the devil, with a burning posture, is holding the entire world in his hands and assimilating it into purgatory.

Along with the demon's roar, black flames fell from the sky, almost burning the entire world completely.

Flames and lightning intertwined throughout the world, and the sense of doomsday devastation became increasingly real.

In an instant, it was as if black lightning cut through the entire world.

The black sky collapsed and the thick fog rose like a tsunami!
The giant dragon let out a desperate wail and fell to the ground. It was continuously burned by the evil flames and its body was almost cut in half by the demon.

The devil trampled on the dragon's head and roared to the sky.

Black fire, lightning, blood-red mist, and the demon riding on the dragon's head seemed like a demon that was both far away and close at hand.

Suddenly, the devil's eyes looked over.

Click!

The chess piece in Chu Xuan's hand suddenly burned with black flames. The violent flames even burned his fingers, making him unable to hold the chess piece.

As a result, the winning white chess piece fell onto the chessboard and broke into two pieces.

As this piece shattered, the four core pieces surrounding it on the chessboard also shattered one after another.

Wow--

Chu Xuan spat a mouthful of blood onto the chessboard, staining all the broken white pieces red.

He looked up in a daze, seeming a little bit unbelievable, but more confused and bewildered.

"My goal has been achieved, and you have lost your only chance of a draw." The clone Chu Xuan raised a bloody black chess piece.

"Total annihilation has become inevitable."

The black piece landed heavily on the broken layout of the remaining white pieces.

Starting from the lower right corner of the chessboard, when the thick wall of black chess pieces and the empty land of white chess pieces are pressed against each other, an avalanche-like wave begins, rolling all the way from the lower right corner to the lower left corner.

"it's over!"

The dragon began to wail as it wailed towards death! The scales on its body quickly turned gray and dull, like a large area of ​​withered flowerbed.

A dragon body worth twenty grams was cut off!
It almost announced the victory of this game!
cold shaking
Zheng Zha shook his head, sat up from the hard metal floor, slowly woke up from his confusion, and looked at the surrounding environment.

A dark space, a familiar scene, a running carriage, and a man squatting on the ground not far away.

Really? Back on that cold train again.

The starting point of everything.

"Ah, Brother Jie." Zheng Zha rubbed his face and leaned against the cold carriage, with a look of relief on his face: "It's great to see you at the last moment."

"How is your clone?" Zhang Jie lit a cigarette, just like when Zheng Zha first met him.

He turned around and smiled, "In the end, he overcame his inner demons and entered the fourth level, right?"

"You are so unlucky. You are just one step away from defeating him head-on."

"At that time, you will be the first to enter the fourth stage and awaken the light of the soul."

"It's not a matter of luck, but—he's really strong." Zheng Zha held his chin and sighed, "Not strong in the ordinary sense, but strong in all aspects without any blind spots."

"From belief, determination, awareness, fighting instinct, combat experience, to the understanding and control of power."

"He is too strong, far beyond me."

Zheng Zha looked at the ceiling with a complicated expression, "Besides, I feel like he hasn't used his full strength yet."

"Oh?" Zhang Jie tilted his head and looked at Zheng Zha: "Is this going to boost other people's ambitions?" "Hahaha, is that so?" Zheng Zha laughed dryly.

"At that moment, I even felt that even if I also reached the fourth level, I might not be his opponent."

Zhang Jie looked at Zheng Zha with a hint of surprise: "I didn't expect him to make you say such words of surrender."

"Since I became a Lord God, I've trained my physical strength, strengthened my internal energy, acquired the dragon blood gene, and created my own skills like explosion, destruction, and flame armor. I even used the power of my inner demon." Zheng Zha's tone was filled with a sense of powerlessness: "I used it all."

"But the stronger I get, the more I can feel the gap between me and him."

"That's not just the difference in enhancement level, but also the difference in self-awareness, and..." Zheng Zha sighed.

“The gap in understanding of the concepts of life and death.”

Zheng Zha was very calm, and even felt sincerely sorry for not being able to keep up with the evolution speed of his clone Zheng Zha.

The replica seemed very disappointed with itself.

Zhang Jie listened silently without saying anything.

"Actually, I feel he's very sad." Zheng Zha held his head and said in a deep voice: "After hearing his story, I can empathize with his despair and hatred."

"To some extent, I'm just one of the lucky ones. Once I entered the main divine space, I had Brother Jie to guide me and Zhan Lan to support me."

"In the second world, I met reliable teammates like Chu Xuan and Ling Dian."

"In the third world, I met Zhuang Boshi. Not only did he not deny my naive and harmful idea, he even recognized me."

“And in accordance with everyone’s wishes, we have established a reliable, safe and strong team.”

"But the replica has nothing. He entered the real hell."

"If I were faced with that situation, I might also fall into darkness like him, abandoning everything for revenge and becoming a demon."

"He hates me, I can understand that."

"All causes and consequences are on me."

The great freedom he realized before his death made him understand a lot.

What Zhang Jie said was right. It was very likely that if he had defeated the clone at that time, he would have been able to leap over the dragon gate and awaken the light of his soul on the spot.

But even if he tried a hundred times, he still couldn't defeat the clone.

"Really?" Zhang Jie patted his shoulder and handed him a cigarette.

"Zhan Lan died in front of me again, and my comrades died in front of me one by one. I felt that kind of helplessness, frustration and despair." Zheng Zha put the cigarette in his mouth and took a deep breath.

"It makes me hate myself deeply."

"Why are you so incompetent? Why are you so poor?"

"Why do I always fall short when trying to protect the people I cherish most?"

Zhang Jie took a puff of his cigarette, exhaled a smoke ring, and said slowly and thoughtfully, "Life is always full of regrets."

"You and I are just ordinary people, forced into this deadly fight."

"Besides, betting everything on your teammates is also a helpless choice."

Zheng Zha smiled, his smile full of relief.

"How do you say that? Although the plan is full of variables."

"But I believe in Zhuang Boshi. He always manages to force a situation back on track when it gets out of control."

The devil that suddenly appeared in The Grudge, Set that suddenly appeared in Gods and Demons, and the Chaos God that suddenly appeared in The Hobbit.

Including the current fourth-level intermediate replica Zheng Zha.

At that time, all these desperate situations seemed to be hopeless situations with no chance of survival.

But no matter how outrageously powerful the boss is, Zhuang Boshi can always find a way to deal with it.

He looked at the opened brocade bag in his hand, which contained a cross-shaped prop.

Zheng Zha felt the surface of the cross and said with emotion.

"He asked me to wait for 5 minutes, so I waited!"

"Although it's a bit unexpected that the clone has entered the fourth level, let's leave everything to him."

The train stopped, Zheng Zha stood up and walked towards the door.

He looked at his watch and walked south. He didn't know why he was going south, he was just following his instinct.

In the innate Bagua, due south is Qian, which symbolizes fire and pure yang. It is said to be the beginning of all things and the creation of the heaven and the earth.

The north is Kun, which symbolizes water and pure yin. It is said to be the end of all things and the end of the universe.

"Let's go, Brother Jie."

"I'll walk this way with you for five minutes."

"Brat." Zhang Jie said with a smile, and followed Zheng Zha out of the car door and into the boundless darkness.

Zheng Zha was lying on the ground on the battlefield, covered in wounds. His eyes were rapidly losing color, and a pool of blood was spreading under him.

The lower body still stood in the same place.

The replica's simple and unpretentious slash not only cut off Zheng Zha's body, but also destroyed his last bit of life.

[The Demon Team lost two players, the Zhongzhou Team lost six players, and the total score was four points]

"hahahahahahahahahahaha!"

After hearing the Lord God's reminder, the clone Zheng Zha couldn't stop laughing. He laughed for more than ten seconds before stopping.

"My true self, thank you so much! Without you, how could I have been able to break free from hatred so quickly and enter the fourth level!"

Entering another world, the clone completely broke away from everything in the past and began to say its final goodbye to its opponent.

"That's amazing! That move you just made was beyond my imagination."

"You fuse positive and negative energies and then explode them, using your body as a bomb to charge at your opponent and detonate yourself. I really don't know how you came up with that."

"That's quite a mess, but it makes me look at you with new eyes."

The clone had a happy expression on his face, still recalling the previous battle.

"Maybe, I won't forget you for a long time."

After saying that, he turned and headed north.

He didn't look at Zhuang Boshi directly, but instead relaxedly admired the scenery of the destroyed city.

"I'm in a good mood now, please don't let me down."

Zhuang Boshi's face was almost as gloomy as ever, his brows slightly narrowed, staring intently at this terrifying man.

Even if a contingency plan has been made, bad situations may still occur.

The clone Zheng Zha has entered the fourth level!
The curse mark he had originally buried near the church had been completely destroyed by the war. With just his physical body, no matter how fast he was, by the time he arrived, all his teammates would have been dead.

The situation of his teammates dying one after another made him feel an indescribable heaviness.

However, there was no time to mourn Zheng Zha's death.

The next one to arrive at the battlefield was.

The strongest player of the Zhongzhou team.

Zhuang Bosch!
PS: Recycle the cover!
　Although Xiangnan wrote this chapter mostly for the sake of this dumpling, it was not forced.

　　Zheng Zha Xiangnan accepted death and moved towards rebirth.

　　The clone Zheng Zha is reborn to the north, but has to face death.

　　The south and north directions of the mantra come from the Buddhist meaning. Going south means returning to tradition, and going north means opening up a new path.

　　The north and south of the Bagua have different meanings.

　　The south is fire, opening up new scenery and symbolizing Zheng Zha.

　　The north is yin, accommodating all things and symbolizing the replica Zheng Zha.

　　There is another interpretation, the Chaos Octagram, the south is greed and dissolution, and the north is erosion and destruction.

　　It can also symbolize certain aspects of Zheng Zha and his replica Zheng Zha.
