The pieces began to move, as if there was a large invisible hand manipulating them.

This time, I don't know if it's because Roger's own strength has improved a lot, he stood by and observed for a long time, but no monsters appeared.

Slowly, Roger still discovered the pattern on the chessboard.

Repeat.

It's an amazing state.

The chessboard is obviously in the state of the game, but after both sides move for a while, the pieces will return to their original positions, and then after a period of time, the cycle will start again.

This repetition made Roger can't help but have some associations.

After thinking about it for a moment, he jumped off the edge of the patio.

The moment his body was in the air, his surroundings suddenly changed, the sunken patio disappeared, and the chessboard placed at the bottom disappeared.

The space in front of him was distorted, separated into transparent spaces, and through these invisible barriers, Roger saw many struggling lives.

Some of them are strong and some are weak, but no matter what they do, they can't break through the barrier, and what's even more terrifying is that when they try to break through the barrier, they will be oppressed by a powerful force and instantly squeezed into a ball of meat sauce.

Soon, everything inside was back to normal, and the squeezed bolognese returned to their original form, and they seemed to have forgotten everything that had just happened, and then continued to rush forward with a roar.

Over and over.

Cycle.

The body floats in mid-air, surrounded by transparent lattices one after another, the space is narrow, and where is the chessboard, it is simply a prison.

Roger looked up, and above his head was the circular chessboard, with each movement of a creature struggling to break through the cage, only to be crushed to the ground.

Is this a chessboard or a cage?

It's a pity that the power of the Misty Hut is limited, and there is no way to assimilate other world fragments like the Shadow Hut, otherwise Roger would know more about this chessboard and the world.

Body shuttle, Roger was not restricted in any way, and soon he came to a square stone tablet, a little light flashed, and Roger had a lot of information in his mind.

There is nothing related to this world, but what is included is the method of controlling the chessboard, and the process of containing or releasing the monsters inside.

"Now the Misty Forest will become much more lively." Roger's face was overjoyed.

The function of the Misty Forest is very practical, but the distribution of monsters in it is not rich enough, at this time, there is a ready-made template, and by controlling it, you can place more monsters in the Misty Forest.

"Is this chessboard generated by this world, or is it ...... This misty world is nothing more than a box on which the chessboard is placed? ”

Roger couldn't explore the secret behind it for the time being, but he was very satisfied that he could get something.

There is no so-called battle, but if Roger came here rashly when his strength was low, it would be no accident, the moment the light flashed, he would be directly crowded because he couldn't bear the huge mental pressure.

Roger didn't know if it was really death, or if it was all over and over again, like the monsters he watched, stuffed into that narrow cage.

Every Cursed Lands needs to be careful.

Because chaotic rules are often more dangerous than powerful enemies.

I don't know how many years this chessboard has been running, and the original perfect rules have loopholes, and if there is no external interference, it will not be long before the contents inside will escape due to the damage of the chessboard.

By then, however, they had only moved from the narrow cage to the slightly larger one.

Something inexplicably occurred to Roger's mind, and he thought of the Mountain Maiden and Uma, who were also creatures imprisoned in the fragments of the world.

The difference is that the rules of the two worlds are slightly different.

"Chessboard space...... Misty World ......"

There are too many secrets in this world, and some of them have no answers, so Roger can only let go of the doubts in his heart and sort out the information in his mind.

Naturally, the creatures in this area cannot be placed in the real world, but as long as they appear in the Misty World, the training base can project them into the Misty Forest.

Containment and release.

After mastering the method and carefully studying the types of monsters in it, Roger returned to Kylemohan through the Misty Hut.

Informing Henrik of something that needed attention, Roger left the Misty Forest and returned to the heights of Kylemohan.

There stood a tall tower in pitch black.

So far, few demon hunters have set foot here.

The vast majority of demon hunters are still in their formative stages, and it will take some time before they have enough strength to explore the unknown.

Before entering the Tower of Shadows, Roger opened the fairy tale manuscript and released the original sea of light, and as for Sunset Chinatsu, he took her out and introduced her to the others after Roger arrived.

"I love this place."

The Meniya of the twilight Chinatsu is very fluent, and as for the original Mitsukai, because of his physical attributes, he has been ostracized since he came here.

Of course, what he couldn't understand was that Roger had a way to cross the boundary between the ordinary world and reality.

When he knew that this was the real-world Minia, Hara Mitsukai had a complicated face.

The exterior shape of the Tower of Shadows makes little sense, and the space inside is peculiar, with each floor being a separate door, and behind each door there is another world.

There was not much to say about the first door to open, Amanda and Henrik and the others had gone to explore, and what made Roger very concerned was the second door that appeared after the training base was upgraded to level two.

"Follow me."

Roger and Sunset Chinatsu pushed the door in.

The moment they crossed the darkness, the emblems on the two of Yuan Guanghai suddenly flashed, and then the power of the shadow enveloped the two of them.

The darkness subsided, but the light in front of me was not bright.

Yuan Guanghai took a step forward, and his face quickly changed suddenly.

"Here...... What is this place?! He looked at Roger in shock.

Roger smiled and nodded.

"That's right, that's the place."

"This is the place of constant darkness."

He replied.

"This ...... It's simply ! ”

Sunset Chinatsu turned her head and looked at somewhere in the sky.

"Don't go to him, it's all good for you."

Sunset Chinatsu nodded firmly, then clenched the weapon in her hand.

"Don't worry, this is the best testing ground, I will try to become stronger!"

The spiritual power on Sunset Chinatsu's body surged, but because of the shadow power, the vitality on her body did not leak out.

She was only a thin line away from the Fourth Order.

"I'll try my best!"

The strange aura flashed away, and Yuan Guanghai's body rose slightly.

It's really terrifying, even if he loses his original body and is in this incomparably special state, Yuan Guanghai can actually continue to practice under the inheritance of the Bear School.

With the two of them for high-level swordsmanship instruction, Roger was extremely relieved about the rest, and with the increase in strength, the situation on Yuan Guanghai's body would also improve.

As for the twilight Qianxia, Gushan really tried his best, all the hidden dangers on Qianxia's body were eliminated, and his strength rose a lot.

With her qualifications, without these restrictions, it shouldn't be long before she can enter the fourth order.

At that time, if Yuan Guanghai's strength recovers, even if there is no Roger, there will be three fourth-order residents in the castle.

Henrik may not be able to do so in a short period of time, after all, most of his current strength comes from the weapons in his hands, but Amanda ......

Roger said he really didn't know.

He always felt that Amanda was more of a protagonist than a speed.

Everything was running in an orderly manner, and he didn't linger any longer, and he said goodbye to everyone one by one and left in a hurry.

The figure disappeared, and when he reappeared, Roger had returned to the abandoned house in Blacktail City, where he had lived temporarily before leaving and Sunset Chinatsu.

Not daring to reveal his traces, Roger didn't even use the Black Tower to teleport, and after planning the route, he rushed directly to the city closest to the influence of the Sword Lu.

"Tengu Shrine is actually involved with the lord of the land of constant darkness."

Considering what they had always claimed, Roger wasn't very surprised.

To be honest, even if the heart is more inclined to the Jackdaw Sword Master. But based on the current strength comparison, the chances of the Jackdaw Sword Lord winning are too slim.

There was no teleportation from the Black Tower, but Roger's speed was also very fast, and a few days later he arrived in a city controlled by the Sword House.

Matsuyama Castle.

The closer he got to this side, the more Roger could perceive the difference in the level of the areas under the jurisdiction of the different sword houses.

Barberry Sword House has almost nothing to say except for the only draft, but the other areas are much worse, especially although the Jackdaw Sword Lord is strong, after all, the rise time is short, and the management level is not satisfactory.

Humble and dilapidated, this is the most intuitive feeling.

The previous shadow hut assimilated the room on the cold river, but that was just a backup method, and Roger naturally couldn't appear out of thin air.

At this time, the shadow hut was still left by Roger in the place of constant darkness, and he was a little lucky in his heart, maybe Gushan would really run back to have a look.

If that's the case......

Back in Hanchuan, Roger saw many people at the foot of Hanchuan Mountain from afar.

The breath was different, but the strength of each was not too weak, Roger did not approach, but the other party did not hide his voice, and the conversation came clearly into his ears.

"Will the Jackdaw Sword Master agree?"

Someone asked, it was a thin man with a fierce glint in his eyes.

"He'll say yes."

"Definitely."

Someone replied.

"It has been rumored that the Jackdaw Sword Master is seriously ill......"

"That's not important, it's a pity that we don't have enough strength, how many years has the confrontation between the sword master and the sword master not appeared?"

"Maybe it's always there, but we don't have enough strength, so we don't know."

There was a lot of talking.

Roger's face changed slightly, and instead of going up the mountain from the main entrance, he chose a new path.

Mountaintop.

The cold wind swept the snow.

There was a group of people standing on the snow, dressed in red, led by an old man with red hair, who was not tall and did not carry any weapons on his body, and behind him stood several young men.

All of them had serious expressions and frowned.

"Old friend, since there is no restriction on us going up the mountain, why didn't you come out to see me when we reached the top of the mountain?"

The old man spoke.

Scratch and pull!

The closed door opened, and the cold wind carried the snow down to the door, staining a piece of the floor white.

There is a screen at the door, on which is depicted the cold river under the morning sun, and the screen covers the entire doorway, making it difficult to see the structure and furnishings in the room.

An old voice came from it.

"Old friends?"

The Jackdaw Sword Master smiled.

"You're not."

"The last time we saw each other was decades ago?"

"Hehe, back then, you would just go around behind our ass."

The old man's dark face could not see the change in expression, and he waved his hand indifferently.

"Is that so?"

"But the swordsmen who were born in the same era as you are all dead, and if I am not an old friend, then you will hardly find friends in this world."

"Say, what are you doing with me?"

The Jackdaw Sword Lord spoke.

"Don't worry, although I am older than you, I will definitely die behind you."

The Jackdaw Sword Lord added.

"Nothing else."

"When I get older, I pay special attention to inheritance, and I have accepted a few students, and I feel that the teaching is not bad."

"When you are young, whether it is the previous generation or the next generation, you are the most dazzling one, no one can compare to you, and almost no one can even keep up with you."

The old man laughed.

"Since I can't compare to you, maybe my apprentice can be a little better than yours."

"For the sake of friends, if you don't mind, send your apprentice to give you some guidance, if you want, it's also great to get your personal guidance."

After saying this, the old man closed his mouth, with a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth. Look at the screen placed in the doorway.

His vision seemed to be able to see through the barrier and see the emaciated figure hiding in a dimly lit room.

"How?"

After a long time, seeing that there was no reply, the old man asked again.

"Old, already asleep?" He said with a smile.

"Everyone knows my ability to teach students, have you killed fewer people over the years?"

The voice of the Jackdaw Sword Master came from the room.

"They're not your students, let the celebrities come out and give some advice, if the celebrities aren't there."

The old man's eyes narrowed into a thin line.

"Nice qualifications."

The Jackdaw Sword Lord sighed, "I'm not as good as you in teaching students. ”

He laughed, "You win, you can go." ”

"That's not good, we came all the way to Hanchuan once, and many of my students are your admirers and want to see you in person."

The old man lowered his voice.

At this moment, Roger had followed the hidden path to the mountainside, and in the distance, he saw the crowd on the top of the mountain.

A familiar voice came.

"Lord Roger?!"

Roger turned his head to see Yuuki Nao walking briskly.

"What's going on?"

He asked in a deep voice.

"It's the person who came to challenge in the name of competition, and the time is too weird, and the celebrity and the Jianjiao can't be contacted for a while." Nao Yuuki looked anxious.

Roger understood something in an instant.

It should be a temptation from the Tengu Shrine, and they can't wait.
