Chapter 1155 The Pitiful White Queen
"Starry Sky·King
Star Techniques:
1 Diamond·King's Chariot Seal: Applies a "Chariot Seal" mark to the target through contact.
The target can be a living being or a non-living object, but its size and mass must not be significantly different from the user's.
The Chariot Seal cannot be purified but can be destroyed.
2 Starry Sky·King's Gambit: Within a certain range, the user swaps positions with the target marked with the Chariot Seal.
Biological Trait: The King can directly perform the King's Gambit with a chariot of the same color without applying the 'Chariot Seal'."
Jiang Xiao flipped through the *Star Warrior Chronicles'* bestiary and suddenly understood.
No wonder the chariot and the king suddenly swapped positions earlier, catching everyone off guard, and no one saw any Chariot Seal. It turned out to be due to the biological trait.
But this is a star beast's trait, a privilege exclusive to them. If a human star warrior wants to use such a star technique, they must first apply a mark to the target and then swap positions.
However, the description of this second star technique is rather vague: swap positions with the target within a certain range?
How far is the range?
If Jiang Xiao applied a Chariot Seal to Xia Yan, and he was in Antarctica while Xia Yan was in China, the two probably wouldn't be able to swap positions, right?
Well... I'll experiment after learning it.
Jiang Xiao thought to himself, while in front of Little Jiang Xue, the fiery puppet army she summoned was already locked in a fierce battle with the guards' army.
Jiang Gong and Hou Mingming were even more transformed into two turrets, firing arrows in rapid succession, wildly shooting at the army. Even more terrifying was Gu Shi'an, who threw a phantom hammer into the air!
The huge phantom hammer hung in the air, madly showering hammer shadows onto the enemy ranks, unleashing a wild bombardment.
Platinum·Twilight of the Gods!
The two tails flickered as it returned to Jiang Xiao's side, saying, "Open a spatial gate. The guards' passive defensive star technique, Battle Formation, is quite special. Throw them inside."
Indeed, from the initial 80 or so guards on the first floor to now, the members of Team Tail Feathers have fallen layer by layer. On this floor, there are as many as six or seven hundred guards.
The Battle Formation star technique is a passive increase in self-defense due to the increase in numbers. The lowest-level creatures in the chessboard have now begun to cause trouble for Team Tail Feathers.
Of course, the guards' defense has increased, but their offense doesn't enjoy such benefits.
With a flash, Jiang Xiao directly plunged into a pile of guards with Prisoner Dragon, directly opening the spatial gate.
Wielding a flower blade, Jiang Xiao swung his giant blade continuously, creating an impenetrable defense, fighting a group of worthless rabble.
Ultimately, Jiang Xiao is a Starry Sky powerhouse, while these guards, apart from their special defense, are just golden-level minions. They're just bigger and a bit intimidating.
Roaring Dragon relied on its massive size to sweep away large groups, constantly sweeping guards into Jiang Xiao's spatial gate.
In the distance, Star Power Little Chongyang and Star Power Great Sage have obviously become a new "giant duo," one wielding a staff, the other a halberd, relentlessly chasing various toy soldiers on the chessboard.
Since the star warrior's body is located in the heart of the giant star power body when activating the Star Power Form, the other parts of the body are all composed of star power, so neither of them is afraid of being injured.
The chessboard soldiers, seeing the Star Power Form for the first time, also failed to grasp the key point. They attacked Little Chongyang and Great Sage's feet, crashing into their star power ankles and calves, trying to knock the two giants to the ground, but they couldn't inflict any damage.
"Dong! Dong! Dong!"
The chessboard suddenly shook, and Jiang Xiao, wielding a broadsword, looked astonished and turned his head to see that Little Chongyang had abandoned her usual offensive routines, lacking any skill, and was constantly stomping her feet back and forth on a group of "toy soldiers" at her feet!
While stomping her feet with small steps, she muttered, "You dare to suppress me!?"
At a corner of the chessboard, Xia Yan's heart also stirred. The next moment... a 16-meter Star Power Xia Yan rose from the ground, angrily shouting, "Who dares to suppress me!?"
Great Sage: "..."
The corners of Great Sage's mouth twitched awkwardly. It was clearly a very domineering and inspiring sentence, but it just didn't sound right coming from you.
"Step faster! Faster! Stop playing!" Martha scolded and summoned several water clones, attacking a white king who was searching for a white chariot.
"Five Tails, throw a Silence over to Xia Yan's side. I found another king!" Jiang Xiao shouted.
Yi Qingchen, who had been diligently guarding Jiang Xiao's side, immediately looked towards Giant Xia Yan and found the white king's figure.
She waved her hand, and a Silence slammed over.
The members of Team Tail Feathers displayed their respective abilities. Han Jiangxue was burning a queen with white flames, and Little Chongyang suddenly teleported over, leaving only a giant star power husk in place.
Little Chongyang, draped in a cloak, floated beside Han Jiangxue, holding a star bead in her small hand: "Here, Jiangxue *jiejie*."
Han Jiangxue's slender fingers suddenly opened wide, and in the distance, white flames instantly burst open, staining the queen's stone body.
At the same time, she turned her head, looked at Little Chongyang who was offering a treasure, and couldn't help but reach out another hand and gently patted her small head: "Not Jiangxue *jiejie*, Han Jiangxue *jiejie*."
"Oh." Little Chongyang nodded obediently.
"That one over there, go take a look. It was also shattered by my burning." Han Jiangxue gestured towards the burning female statue rolling on the ground in the distance.
"Hehe, *jiejie* is awesome, I'll go get it for you." Little Chongyang's figure disappeared in a flash...
Han Jiangxue directly absorbed the star bead, but her eyes lit up.
Absorption successful!?
Which star technique is it?
Is it "Black and White Blocks" or "Shattered King Ring"?
Han Jiangxue hurriedly activated her star technique, and a "sugar cube" with a length, width, and height of 10 meters suddenly appeared beside her.
Han Jiangxue: "..."
The huge white cube appeared beside her just like that. Little Chongyang, who teleported back, curiously stepped on this regular stone cube, looking puzzled: "Eh? It wasn't here when I left?"
As she spoke, the cube under Little Chongyang's feet moved!
Han Jiangxue: !!!
"Diamond·Black and White Blocks: Summons black and white stone blocks, changing the surrounding environment. Chessboard creatures are likely to be born in the stone blocks."
"Crack~ Crack!" The white cube was covered with cracks, and a huge face slowly emerged from the cube.
Han Jiangxue's breathing slightly stagnated, but she saw a noble and elegant female face!
The white queen!?
The queen's huge face first poked out from the side of the cube, followed by her arms. Her hands were pressing on both sides, seemingly trying to climb out.
Draped in the Soul of the Devouring Sea, Han Jiangxue hurriedly flew over and arrived beside the marble queen's head.
The queen was obviously stunned. Having just been born from the cube, she obviously didn't expect to see an unfamiliar species.
Chessboard creatures don't have cubs. They are all born from the cubes. Once born, they possess complete combat capabilities, and their minds seem to be equipped with corresponding "chessboard knowledge."
Han Jiangxue's appearance made this newly made marble goddess a little dazed.
The queen's face was carved so exquisitely, her slightly surprised expression was extremely lifelike. Her long hair was tied up high, and she was wearing a small queen's crown. She also saw a small hand reaching out to her face.
The queen was just half her body outside the cube, staring blankly at the little figure floating in front of her, and that little figure pressed a ball of white flame into her mouth.
"Ugh... Ah... Ah... Ah!!!" From the initial daze and surprise, to now, with the white flames raging and burning in her mouth, the marble queen screamed miserably, constantly spitting out shattered stones from her mouth, holding her stone head tightly with both hands, in immense pain.
Once, that exquisite face had become incomparably ferocious and even distorted, as if driven mad.
Han Jiangxue silently floated away, tilting her head and looking at the marble queen...
She suddenly realized that Team Tail Feathers probably didn't need to acquire star beads here!
From now on, Han Jiangxue herself could summon cubes, wait for chessboard creatures to be born from them, and then collect the star beads in their brains.
So now the question is, the queen's "Black and White Blocks" star technique is for nurturing chessboard creatures, so how did the first queen appear?
Jiang Xiao saw that something was wrong here and hurriedly teleported back, also seeing this strange scene.
Finally, under Han Jiangxue's "merciless destruction of beauty," the newly baked marble queen's head was burned and cracked, and the half of her headless stone body exposed outside the cube also slumped down weakly...
Han Jiangxue collected the star bead and looked at Jiang Xiao, saying, "I can create black and white blocks to nurture chessboard creatures. We don't need to fight here."
Jiang Xiao's eyes lit up, but he thought of something else. He said, "If we operate well, we can even have a guard army! Although their attacks are a bit lacking, their defense is high. They can be used as a defensive wall!"
Han Jiangxue immediately nodded, that was indeed the case.
Jiang Xiao hurriedly asked, "When you absorbed the 'Black and White Blocks' star technique, did you specifically summon the white cube that nurtured the queen?"
Han Jiangxue shook her head, saying, "No, I summon black or white cubes randomly, and the chessboard creatures produced inside are also random.
Moreover, if it's just 'likely' to nurture chessboard creatures, as stated in your *Star Warrior Chronicles*, then I can only say that I won the lottery the first time I summoned a cube."
Jiang Xiao shrugged his shoulders and said, "Maybe the probability of cubes nurturing chessboard creatures isn't low."
Han Jiangxue frowned, but didn't respond.
Jiang Xiao hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
While absorbing the newly acquired queen star bead again, Han Jiangxue said, "It's nothing, using Star Transformation into Weapon frequently is a bit tiring."
Jiang Xiao said, "You're not suitable for lying, Little Jiangxue. We all know each other very well."
Han Jiangxue glared at Jiang Xiao, but still said, "I'm thinking about a useless question."
Jiang Xiao: "Speak."
Han Jiangxue said, "The queen's Black and White Blocks star technique is for summoning chessboard creatures, so... where did the first queen come from?"
Hearing this, Jiang Xiao scratched his head.
Han Jiangxue also said with a smile, "It's the chicken or the egg problem. It's meaningless."
Jiang Xiao said, "There was a chicken first, and then there were eggs."
Han Jiangxue raised her eyebrows slightly: "Then where did the first chicken in the world come from?"
Jiang Xiao thought for a while and said, "Maybe it was forced by life."
Han Jiangxue: ???
