Ancient wizards return to Hogwarts

Behind the door was a dark room. After the three people walked into it, the room was suddenly brightly lit, and a shocking scene appeared in front of them. ஜ۩۞۩ஜஜ۩۞۩ஜ

They stood next to a huge chessboard, with black stone chess pieces in front of them that were taller than them. Opposite them, at the other end of the room, was a group of white chess pieces about the same size as the black chess pieces. All the chess pieces had no facial features carved on them and stood tall on the spot, exuding an aura that told no strangers to enter.

Ron tried to take a step forward, and the soldiers in the white chess piece immediately became active. They pulled out their weapons and blocked Ron in front of him, forming a chess wall.

It seems that we have to play chess with the opponent and win before we can pass. And if nothing else happens, we should act as chess pieces to replace the three black chess pieces. Ron speculated.

He asked a black knight and got a positive answer. This made Ron couldn't help but sigh. He knew very well that the risk of being a chess piece was much higher than that of a chess player. The chess pieces would be sacrificed, but not the chess players. If possible, he just wanted to be a chess player, but unfortunately he had no choice.

Ron invited the three black chessmen out of the chessboard, and then took their places with Harry and Daphne.

I'll take command. I'm not bragging. My wizard chess skills are definitely among the best in Hogwarts. Before the chess started, Ron wanted to take over the command from Harry and Daphne.

Oh? Harry, who was often beaten by Ron in wizard chess, was fine. Daphne, who had never played against Ron, raised her eyebrows and was a little dissatisfied: she didn't think her chess skills were inferior to Ron's. Ron's previous behavior made it difficult for her to trust this freckle-faced Weasley boy.

Okay, then the two of us will take command together. After seeing the change in Daphne's demeanor, Ron's high confidence suddenly shrank as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on him. He decided to take a step back and let both parties take command together.

However, this inadvertently committed a taboo in the chess world: multi-person command.

When it comes to playing chess, if two people play together, one person may not be able to play well, because not every chess player can keep up with the thinking of his teammates, and sometimes it will hinder his teammates.

This is what happened to Ron and Daphne.

Both of them are wizard chess masters, but when they were combined together, they had a wonderful negative impact, making their performance unsatisfactory.

White charges on the chessboard, playing Black very passively. One after another, the black chess pieces were ruthlessly smashed into pieces, turning into a pile of lifeless rubble. They were then swept out of the chessboard and piled against the wall. However, the level of Ron and Daphne was not outstanding. They fought hard and destroyed a lot of white pieces, but in the end they could not restore the decline of black pieces.

Black's failure is only a matter of time.

The bishop moves three spaces to the left!

Daphne, no! You will lose if you do this!

No! A trace of ruthlessness flashed across Daphne's face: Who said the winner must be determined on the chessboard? Just eliminate as many white chess pieces as possible!

Ron and Harry were stunned.

Before they could react, Daphne directed the remaining black chess pieces to launch a suicidal attack on white chess pieces. She successfully broke several white chess pieces, and completely collapsed the black chess situation, which had been able to hold on for a while.

But Daphne was not moved at all. Her operation seemed to be like buying her own and losing. Sometimes she was even sending black's head away.

Ron had given up commanding and quietly watched Daphne operate. He wasn't quite sure why Daphne did this. Maybe it was to start another game and direct it alone?

Finally, the white bishop rushed to the black king. The black king took off the crown on his head and threw it at his feet. Black lost. Even though there are not many white pieces left on the chessboard, they still checkmate the black king, right?

Next comes the moves off the board.

Just as the white chess pieces slowly returned to their original positions, preparing to restore the chessboard to its original state, a magic spell accurately hit the white king's neck and cut off his head.

The king's head fell to the ground and broke into several pieces. The crown on his head rolled far away.

Harry, Ron:!

The other chess pieces were also stunned, as if they didn't expect such an operation at all.

Sure enough! Wind Blade—— Daphne was overjoyed. She waved her wand continuously and threw out one foot-long wind blade after another, smashing the white chess piece on the opposite side to pieces.

She had noticed when the chess pieces were fighting each other just now. The stones used in this group of chess pieces were all relatively brittle marble, the kind that would cause cracks if knocked by a thermos cup, let alone her wind blade.

Almost every wind blade can leave a huge gap of one foot on the chess piece, and spread a large number of cracks. This kind of wind blade can cut off the fragile parts of the chess pieces in one stroke, such as the neck and limbs. Even if it is a thick place, it only needs one more cut.

Daphne's attack caught the chess pieces off guard, and by the time they reacted and attacked her, most of the white chess pieces had been destroyed by her.

Only then did Harry understand what Daphne meant when she said, Winning or losing doesn't have to be decided on the chessboard.

Just as Harry was thinking, Ron suddenly rushed towards him and knocked him down.

Turns out it's Black who starts attacking them - and when Daphne decides to break the rules, Black becomes their enemy instead of their teammate.

With Ron's save, Harry escaped the Black King's attack, but Ron was not so lucky. He received a heavy hammer on his thigh and screamed on the spot.

Before Black King could finish his attack, a wind blade cut off its head.

Daphne was already floating in the air at this moment, with full firepower. The wind blades fell like raindrops, sweeping away the remaining chess pieces on the field within ten seconds.

After the last chess piece fell to the ground, Daphne fell next to Ron and checked his injuries with her lips pursed. She regretted not communicating with Harry and the others before taking action, otherwise they would have been completely victorious.

It's broken. Smell this quickly. Daphne opened the bottle of sleeping potion a crack and waved it in front of Ron's nose, and he fainted immediately.

Daphne sighed and said that she could only keep Ron here for the time being.

With no chess pieces in the way, the two successfully crossed the second gate. Behind the third door was a giant monster, and Daphne easily defeated it. With her experience last time, she killed the giant monster instantly as soon as she faced it.

In the level after the troll, there is a table with seven bottles of different shapes arranged on it.

Daphne picked up the note left on the table. The puzzle on the note was not difficult for her to solve. The problem was that when she picked up the inconspicuous little bottle, she found that the potion inside had been drunk.

Daphne and Harry fell silent for a moment.
