Chapter 84 The power beyond the chessboard

"Thank you, that's a big help."

Ron said with relief, and Harry and Hermione also breathed a sigh of relief.

In this potentially life-threatening chess game, what they need most is a sense of security, and this magic spell can give them a certain degree of protection.

"Okay, I'm going to get started."

"Wait!" Aaron hesitated for a moment and took out the elixir. "Even if I'm unlucky this time, there should be nothing left after just one sip."

"What is this?" Harry asked.

"I seem to have seen it somewhere." Hermione thought thoughtfully, "Isn't this what you drank when you were dueling with the man in black robe in the Forbidden Forest?"

"Elixir of Fortune, just one sip can improve a person's luck.

The iron armor spell can protect you from being killed in one blow, and this potion can probably make you suffer minor injuries at most.

Originally I didn't plan to take it out, but after all, we came together, and I can't just watch you reduce the number of people. Aaron said righteously, and then threw the bottle to Hermione, "I only have one request, never, never, never..."

"Don't worry." Ron patted his chest and interrupted him confidently, "With the Iron Armor Curse and the Blessing Elixir, we will be fine."

“Nonsense, but that’s not what I’m talking about.

You must not touch your lips. I took a sip before tonight's action. I have a mysophobia. "

Ron:......

The three of them looked at each other, then nodded.

Hermione raised her head first, poured a small portion of the Felixir into her mouth, and then handed the bottle to Harry.

After Harry did so, it was Ron.

He drank the last potion in one breath and threw the bottle to the floor in the corner. The sound of breaking glass suddenly sounded.

"Start the war!"

The rule of Magician's chess is that white moves first. After the 'war' signal appears, a white pawn automatically moves forward two spaces.

Ron pointed to a black pawn on the edge and said tentatively: "Black moves to D5."

As soon as it stopped, the white pawn in front pulled out his knife and slashed it down without any hesitation.

The black pawn was shattered instantly, and rocks flew on the chessboard, making the three of them tremble in shock.

"Tsk! I already said this is a real magician's chess, why are you trying to test it!" Aaron shook his head speechlessly, "It's fine now, I got a pawn from the opponent.

The already unfavorable chess game became even worse. "

"Ron." Harry couldn't help but remind him, "If we keep playing like this, no matter how lucky we are, we will all die."

"Don't worry, I'm sure.

I can win this game without even one pawn. "

However, as the chess game progressed, his confidence became weaker and weaker.

Although Ron had used human wisdom to force the advantage to the black chess side, when the black chess piece was eaten, the white chess piece's performance was too cruel, and he had to find a way to ensure that Harry and Hermione The living chess piece does not suffer any damage, and every move is a huge pressure.

boom! boom! boom!

The sound of broken stone statues was heard endlessly. The number of black and white chess pieces on the chessboard continued to decrease, leaving less than half. The broken stones almost covered half of the room.

At this moment, the only chess pieces on the chessboard that can affect the outcome are the white king, the white queen, and the three living black chess pieces, Harry, Hermione, and Ron.

Three against two, the situation is quite obvious.

As long as the white queen whose main purpose is to capture the pieces is held back, any black piece can checkmate the white king.

But this is Wizard's Chess, and they need to decide who will face the white queen's stone statue.

"Wait a minute." Harry said suddenly.

"It seems you understand, Harry." Ron pursed his lips, "I have to be eaten."

"No!"×2.

“This is a game of chess, and there have to be sacrifices.

Do you still want to prevent the mysterious man from getting the magic stone? "

"No, there is always another way." Hermione said.

"But if you wait any longer, the Philosopher's Stone will be taken away." Ron looked pale and smiled forcefully, "I'll be fine. Don't forget, I still have a layer of protective magic on me, and I also drank the elixir."

"But look at these broken chess pieces, are any of them intact?

You can't joke with your life! "Hermione said anxiously, "By the way, Aaron, Aaron must have a way. "

She turned her head anxiously, and after looking carefully for a while, she found Aaron taking a nap in the corner, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

"Aaron, wake up, don't sleep."

"Huh? Finished?" Aaron opened his eyes and stood up from the hard floor.

"Oh! This scene is really tragic.

Although I have no interest in this thing, it is obvious that black has won. "

"But we have to go out alone to distract the White Queen." Harry's face turned ugly, "This means, means..."

"It means that one of you has to enjoy the treatment of these eaten chess pieces." Aaron looked at the gravel everywhere and said with emotion, "Fortunately, I am not on the chess board. Being a chess piece is really sad."

"Is now the time to discuss this?" Ron said with tears in his eyes.

"Why are your legs shaking so much?

No, it’s not just the legs. Did I see it wrong? Your whole body is shaking. "

"He plans to sacrifice himself so that we can checkmate the White King." Harry said solemnly.

Aaron was stunned for a moment, then looked at the trembling Weasley and gave him a thumbs up.

“Great, smart decision, right choice.

As expected of Gryffindor, your courage really impresses me!

I believe the Weasley family will be proud of you in the future, go for it! "

Three people:......

Is this what people say?

Is this gloating tone true?

"Wait, wait, you mean you really want Ron to sacrifice?" Hermione asked in disbelief, "We can only watch helplessly and can't do anything?"

"Otherwise? What if it were you and Harry?" Aaron asked, "Ron is on a stone statue anyway, and with the addition of the Iron Armor Curse and the Felixir, he may not be seriously injured.

But what about you? You have nothing.

If it were you who lured Bai away, you would have to rely on your flesh and blood to block its long sword, and you would die.

Simply put, Ron is the best choice. "

"Don't you have any other options?" Hermione asked.

Aaron raised his eyebrows and gave her a playful look.

"There is no way. Even if I use my method, Ron will still have to act as a pawn.

However, it is slightly less dangerous than being attacked by the White Queen. "

"That's it." Ron said immediately, and then looked at Harry, "After you win, go to the next level immediately, don't delay here."

Ron controlled the statue of the horse and slowly moved to the White King.

"General!"

After the words fell, Queen Bai slowly turned around, looked at Ron with a face without facial features, and then moved towards him.

Harry and Hermione both watched this scene anxiously, their hearts beating faster than expected and their breathing becoming more rapid.

Ron on the horse was trembling all over, but his hands still held the reins on the statue tightly and did not let go.

After Queen Bai got closer, she tightened her grip on the long sword and stabbed straight into the horse's belly.

"Ah!" Ron shouted in panic.

"Ron!" Harry shouted angrily.

At this moment, a white light flew out from the side and knocked Ron into the wall.

Harry's shouting suddenly stopped, and he was stunned for a while before looking in the direction from which the white light was flying.

Aaron pretended not to care and put away his wand, looking at the stunned two people, "Am I handsome?"

Harry and Hermione couldn't react for a moment, so they could only nod in unison.

"Is this your approach?" Hermione asked.

"That's right.

The person who can control the chess pieces is not necessarily the only one who plays chess. Forces outside the chessboard can affect the situation at any time.

This is a famous saying from an ancestor of my family, and it makes sense. "Aaron explained, "The purpose of the white chess piece is just to destroy the chess piece. In other words, the goal of the white queen is just the statue of the horse that Ron is riding.

As long as you leave in time, there will be no danger in leaving the chessboard. "

"Is Ron going to be okay?" Harry looked at the figure lying under the wall, feeling worried.

"Probably not!"

"should?"

The two said in unison, obviously not satisfied with these two words.

“Of course it should, I had to make sure he was outside the board and cast the spell a little harder.

But I gave him armor and luck, so it shouldn't be a big deal. "

Harry smiled bitterly, "You are too..."

"What? Are you not convinced?" Aaron joked, "At least compared to that chess piece, his end is much better, isn't it?"

Harry looked at the chess pieces on the chessboard that were smashed by the white queen, and was speechless.

"Maybe you're right, but you should have said it beforehand."

"You didn't ask either?
