Chapter 426 -154 Chen Jiusi: Nan Batian, is your setup hard to break? (10,000 characters for monthly ticket)_3
“What else?”
“Of course, we play Gomoku!”
Xiao Hu said.
Tang Ziyue said, “Gomoku? What’s that?”
“Come here, I’ll teach you. Look, connecting five pieces in a row means you win. You have to break this connection…”
Xiao Hu came over to educate Tang Ziyue about Gomoku.
Chen Jie watched Xiao Hu and the confused Tang Ziyue. He still couldn’t accept that the game he had played for so long with Tang Ziyue wasn’t the same type of chess.
Chen Jie just smiled, hehe, this is what setting up is, this is the game.
You think you’re playing Go, but actually, I’m playing Gomoku. What we’re competing in is who wins first!
Just like today, you and Nan Batian thought I couldn’t break it, but I don’t play by your rules. Taking a different path, I can easily break the game.
Thinking of this, Chen Jie heard the System’s voice in his ear.
[Today’s intelligence has been updated (Third Level)]
[1. Today, you met Huang Wan’er and obtained intelligence that she has been feeling unwell recently. Please pay close attention to her health.]
[2. Today, you saw Su Yunjin, and obtained intelligence that Su Yunjin knows you went to see Huang Wan’er today, but she did not say much else, only that she wants to educate the kids well so they can help you in the future.]
[3. Today, you clashed with Nan Batian, and obtained intelligence that his Mystic Ice Palm has become even more refined, with his strength increasing more than it had half a year ago.]
[4. Because you identified the conspiracy of Nan Batian, intelligence was obtained that Guild Cao’s Elder Liu’s only son, Liu Song, was escorting the ironware at Xiantao Ferry today. Nan Batian has already placed a traitor by Liu Song’s side, planning to assassinate Liu Song and frame you when you go to seize the cargo ship!]
[5. Because you identified the conspiracy of Nan Batian, intelligence was obtained: the traitor’s name is Zhao San, and he is serving as Liu Song’s deputy guard captain.]
Hmm?
Chen Jie looked at the refreshed intelligence from the System, his eyes narrowing slightly. He glanced at Tang Ziyue, who was listening to Xiao Hu explain the rules of Gomoku, and then at Nan Batian sitting nearby pretending to read a book, hehe, so this is how he planned to harm me.
Indeed, a cunning plan, that today the one escorting this batch of ironware is Elder Liu’s only son, Liu Song.
He knew Liu Song, the one who always followed Elder Liu around, seemed like the type that hadn’t been toughened up by society.
Chen Jie also had a deep impression of him; the lad always seemed discontent with Chen Jie, always wanting to test his skills against him.
Now it seems he can handle big responsibilities, being trusted with something as crucial as the transportation of ironware.
But what a fool to let Nan Batian place someone by his side, and even as the deputy guard captain. Elder Liu was also careless, how could he let such a person be around his son, what was he thinking.
When selecting guards, don’t they choose carefully?
But the intelligence System really came through, providing even the traitor’s name.
Chen Jie had to admit, this intelligence System was quite impressive, aside from being slightly cryptic at times, it had no other faults.
He still couldn’t figure out how exactly this intelligence System operated; sometimes its precision was astounding, other times it hovered around the answers, making one guess.
Guessing, guessing, am I a child to be guessing!
Chen Jie now had a love-hate relationship with this intelligence system; love, because sometimes it provided incredibly powerful intelligence, like this time, not only did it tell you the conspiracy, but it also told you the name of the traitor.
Sometimes it really wasn’t helpful, and it liked to be cryptic.
Always hovering around the correct answer, like with Huang Wan’er, is she sick? Why is she feeling uncomfortable?
When he was with her today, he didn’t notice anything; everything seemed normal, except that during their interactions, she was much more restrained than her usual wild self, hmm?
That is a problem, why is she so much more reserved, not as wild as before?
He furrowed his brows, but now wasn’t the time to think about these things, the second and third pieces of intelligence weren’t very useful.
Regarding his wife, Chen Jie knew he probably wouldn’t be the romantic saint who loved only her devotedly for this life, 𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖕𝖚𝔟.𝖈𝖔𝔪
As for Nan Batian, Chen Jie knew that unless he could break through Energy Transformation to reach the Holding Core Realm that existed in legends above Energy Transformation, it would be nearly impossible to take him down unharmed. At the Energy Transformation Realm, it would be quite troublesome to kill him.
On another note, it’s worth mentioning that in the past six months, Chen Jie’s intelligence System had upgraded to Third Level. The Third Level System still provided five pieces of intelligence, but the last two pieces of intelligence became target-specific.
From this, it seems, after further upgrades, will all five pieces of intelligence become target-specific?
If that’s the case, it’s actually pretty twisted.
Five targeted pieces of intelligence, not bad, not bad, kind of looking forward to it. By then, probably even the color of someone’s underwear could be investigated.
Chen Jie snapped back to reality, now that he understood the situation, things were simple, how to break the game?
Chen Jie lowered his head, looking at a cup of tea in his hands, through the tea, Chen Jie saw the moonlight in the sky.
Right now, he was effectively under house arrest by Nan Batian, and to break the game, he had to get the intelligence out, but the situation now…
Chen Jie squinted his eyes, feeling somewhat troubled.
Nan Batian and Tang Ziyue seemed to be keeping an eye on him.
However, there was still a possibility to break the game, hoping Si Xi would act according to the rules he had set out.
As he thought this, Chen Jie fell silent, while nearby, Xiao Hu was playing Gomoku with Tang Ziyue, leveraging his clever mind to dominate Tang Ziyue. In the first game, unfamiliar with the rules, Tang Ziyue lost, but in the second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth games, Xiao Hu couldn’t beat Tang Ziyue anymore.
