Chapter 190 - 179 (2/2)

'KNIGHT'

It was the Knight chess piece and that said piece was the key. And where did she found the Knight?

Chun stood up while the others huddled over at the curly haired young man as he brought his ŀȧptop and started to put all their conjectures. It could be said that Captain had a formidable brain when coming up with tactics and routes.

She walked near the displayed glass chess board on the small table and decided to put back the Knight chess piece in between the Rook and the Bishop. That night, it had been the King was missing and when she saw the broken piece that was embedded in the dead man's back, she had a faint feeling about it but due to the influence of the game she ignored it.

But currently, that missing piece was now on the chess board complete and intact. The King was silently standing there with his Queen, they were observing their soldiers, waiting for a right opportunity to move. Chun grasped her pocket and felt that the Knight chess piece was still there, she put it on its rightful position and then the Empire could attack now.

”Chun?” The second prince called out which snapped her back from reverie.

She went back to the discussing heads.

”We have now a hundred points which meant that that we have a bigger advantage to the other teams,” Notalie said while rubbing the head of the sleeping Lollipop. The said girl was still onto hibernate due to the exhaustion of her mental strength.

Notalie reasoned that it was because Lollipop wasn't used on expending too much mental strength and she had just tried to probed everyone of them. It would be tiring for an empathy ability user to do something out of her league. As the gloomy girl was created and wanted to help her team, she came out with this method of waking up them.

Originally, empathy supposed to feel and share the emotions of the person she directed her ability. It would soothe the person's emotional burdens but Lollipop tried a new kind of method which her first time to try out and she succeeded.

”She is really a genius!” Feng Zi also complemented.

It could be said that all of them in the Alliance were geniuses but they had their own unique way of being one of it.

”Pay attention.” Eliza said which silence the rowdy people. The seriousness of her tone entailed that they would be discussing the routes of the team battle. The theme of it, it would be just a speculation for the others but when it came to their great Captain. Nothing but accuracy.

They settled down as they listen of the clear and stern voice.

”If we draw it out for today's mini event and the previous Intercompetition, the three segments are a crime scene investigation, a night terrain, and a tower defense team play.”

The curly haired young man raised his hand while his other hand was still typing on the keyboard, recording each of the keypoints that the long black haired girl had said.

Eliza nodded at Lemon.

”Captain, if team battle is a crime investigation scene then can it be connected to the earlier event play?”

”Yes.” The Captain confirmed with no hesitation.

An alarmed expression emerged on the face of the curly haired young man while he didn't notice his other typing hand had also paused. ”Then---”

”Yes... That would be the killer play.” Eliza simply stated as if the notion wasn't important. She glanced at each of the her members while they looked back at her with confusion and some contemplative expression.

If that was it then the team battle could be a bit difficult for all of the teams.

Eliza didn't want to delay on that one subject as they had other subjects to discuss. She cleared her throat, ”The doubles is a night terrain. I am not sure what it be but I have two hunches, a survival game or a last team standing theme but it can be either of those two.”

After she had said that she paused, waiting for any questions and affirming that they had understood she added, ”Alright. The decided doubles are me and Chun.” She turned to the silver haired young man and stated, ”We will talk about it later.”

Chun agreed in response.

”The intellectual category is a tower defense team play which means that... Berry, you should cooperate well with the other teams.”

It meant that this intellectual category could be said a team play but every teams would be sending out only one members which meant that those members would be teaming up with the others. Such a complicated category.
