Chapter 598: 302: Demon Princess!_3

Yao Xing, with the assistance of the human brain, coupled with terrible spiritual power.

It could be said that such skill in chess far surpassed Earth’s Alpha Dog, as well as any chess player on Earth.

However, even so, at this moment, Suo Lun and Yuanyuan were well-matched in their abilities.

There was absolutely no telling who was superior.

Their pace of play was incredibly fast, with hardly any time for contemplation.

In the first thirty or so moves, both sides seemed to play with great ease, their minds as free as a galloping horse in the sky.

But as the game progressed, Princess Yuanyuan of Yaozhou began to slow down, her thinking time becoming longer and longer.

While playing, she felt her heart race!

In terms of chess skill, she truly stood above all others except for Huai Bingyi.

Besides him, she had no worthy opponents.

And though rumors said Suo Lun’s intelligence was almost demonic, that was only in terms of scheming and strategizing, which might not necessarily translate to strength in chess.

Just like those ancient military strategists from China, they had outstanding cunning and high-level skills in chess, but they found it difficult to stand at the very pinnacle of the game.

Earth’s top chess players, without exception, were individuals with an obsessive focus, who even seemed somewhat dull, not the scheming and calculating types at all.

Yet this Suo Lun, faced with such a top-tier adversary as herself, now appeared to be handling things with remarkable ease, not at a disadvantage at all.

Nonetheless, it was Suo Lun who was truly internally shaken.

The chess skills of this Princess of Yaozhou were unbelievably exceptional; had they been on Earth, they would have dominated as the world number one long ago.

He was Yao Xing, plus incredible spiritual power and a celestial gift for spirituality, far surpassing the capabilities of Alpha Dog’s artificial intelligence. Yet here he was, at this point in the game, and there was still no winner.

And if Huai Bingyi was actually stronger than Yuanyuan, how monstrously talented must he be?

After over four hours!

After all, Yuanyuan was merely relying on the human brain, not comparable to the combined super calculation strength of Yao Xing and her tireless, innumerable operations.

She gradually began to fall behind.

The speed of her moves grew slower and slower.

Four hours later, her disadvantage had become quite apparent.

Four and a half hours later.

Yuanyuan stopped, placing the chess piece in her hand back into the bowl and formally admitted defeat.

Princess Yuanyuan of Yaozhou widened her beautiful eyes in disbelief and said to Suo Lun, "In this world, I thought I had no rival other than Huai Bingyi. I never expected to lose to you. It’s truly unbelievable!"

Suo Lun stood up and said, "I appreciate your politeness."

But...

A proud smile spread across Yuanyuan’s stunning face as she said, "However, Go is just a pastime and hardly a true measure of wisdom. Our first round of intellectual betting wasn’t to play chess. It’s a question that really determines the win or loss."

Suo Lun asked, "What question?"

Princess Yuanyuan of Yaozhou said, "Where, specifically, is this large ship at right now?"

Suo Lun was instantly taken aback.

He had been unconscious for several days and nights, and in the vast sea without any points of reference, who knew their location?

Yuanyuan said, "The specific answer, I’ve already told you during our recent chess match. When we played with ease earlier, every move I made was revealing information."

Suo Lun was taken aback yet again.

Yuanyuan went on, "You once said that intelligence is astonishing memory, astonishing logic, and astonishing inspiration. If you’re smart enough, you should remember every detail, not overlook any information."

"Now answer me, where exactly is our ship?" Yuanyuan said, "If you get it right, you’ve won the first round of our bet. If you get it wrong, you’ve lost the first round, and losing means facing a punishment."

Yuanyuan clapped her hands.

Instantly, three muscular men, powerful warriors from Yaozhou, entered the room.

Each one was terrifyingly robust, like a wild beast.

Then Princess Yuanyuan of Yaozhou, with a devilish gleam in her eye, said, "And the punishment is, you’ll be... by the three big men. The same ordeal that Ashi Luo once endured, you will experience as well."

Suo Lun’s entire body went cold.

Witch, demoness, the woman before him was not just a seductress, but a demoness with horns on her head.

Yuanyuan said with a smile, "Hurry and answer, where exactly are we at this moment? The answer lies within the chess game we just played."

"Answer correctly and you win, answer wrongly, and don’t blame these three muscular men of Yaozhou for ravaging you until you can neither live nor die."

At that moment, all of Suo Lun’s meridians were locked, leaving him utterly defenseless.

After saying this, the three muscular men from Yaozhou started closing in on Suo Lun with cruel and beastly smiles.

To them, a handsome man like Suo Lun was an absolute favorite.

And now Suo Lun finally understood, this Princess of Yaozhou wasn’t pretending to seek vengeance for Ashi Luo.

She wanted to compete in wit with Suo Lun while simultaneously avenging Ashi Luo.

Princess Yuanyuan of Yaozhou clapped her hands and said, "I’m going to count down from five, and then you must make your final answer. Where exactly are we at this moment? When the time is up, if you can’t answer, you’ll be brutally violated."

Her beautiful eyes sparkled with extreme excitement as she began the countdown.

"Five, four, three, two, one..."
