My Stunning Beauty Special Agent Wife-Chapter 730 - 729 Asura Hall Changes (2/3)

Looking at this stalemate, Master Ye frowned deeply, trying to find a way out.

Zhou Qinghe and Ye Liangcai also crouched beside Master Ye, staring intently at the chess game, trying to find a path to survival.

"How about moving the advisor?"

"No way!"

"Block with the cannon?"

"It's useless."

"Knight move?"

"Advance the minister?"

Countless possibilities were considered, but in the end, they were all rejected one by one.

No solution!

Helpless, Master Ye sighed and chose to advance the cannon.

Capture the cannon, check.

Move the general.

Advance the knight.

Move the general again.

Capture it!

Won!

Yang Chen smiled slightly, "Thank you for the game!"

Master Ye sighed, saying, "I lost!"

Recalling the battle just now, Master Ye became more and more amazed.

Thinking back, from the very beginning, Yang Chen had already set up his layout, every step was a trap, finally creating this situation, waiting for Master Ye's move to checkmate.

In this light, Yang Chen's chess skills are truly superb.

"You set up the strategy from the very beginning, didn't you?" Master Ye stared at Yang Chen and asked.

Yang Chen nodded, "I mentioned before, chess just like Go, requires strategy, much like conducting a military campaign; used well, even a pawn can kill a general."

Master Ye slowly nodded and said gravely, "Indeed, I didn't expect your chess skills to be so expert, truly you're the new wave overcoming the old at Jiutian River!"

Yang Chen smiled and said softly, "It's just a different era. Back then, you were accustomed to large-scale battles, while I lead an elite squad preferring to resolve opponents with minimal sacrifice and the best means."

"Indeed!" Master Ye sighed deeply.

It was then that he noticed Zhou Qinghe had arrived.

"Secretary Zhou, you're here to..."

"I'm here to find Yang Chen." Zhou Qinghe quickly smiled.

Towards Master Ye, he dared not be disrespectful.

Yang Chen asked, "Is there something you need?"

Zhou Qinghe hurriedly said, "The old chief asked me to find you, saying there's something he wants to discuss with you."

"No time recently," Yang Chen directly said.

Even though it wasn't the first time Yang Chen refused him, Zhou Qinghe still found it unbelievable.

He really couldn't fathom who could be so straightforwardly and unapologetically refuse the old chief's request.

Fortunately, before arriving, the old chief had said it was an invitation to discuss with Yang Chen and that there was no rush, otherwise Zhou Qinghe would have gone mad.

Instantly, Zhou Qinghe nodded, took out a business card and handed it to Yang Chen, saying, "When you have time, feel free to contact me."

Yang Chen took the card, reflecting thoughtfully.

After Zhou Qinghe left, Ye Liangcai asked, "Are you going?"

Yang Chen thought for a moment, put away the card, and said lightly, "Let's talk about it after tomorrow's matters are settled."

Ye Liangcai slowly nodded.

... 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

On the artificial sea.

Zhou Qinghe reported everything verbatim to the old chief.

The old chief was intrigued by the chess game and asked in detail, "Tell me carefully about the chess game."

Zhou Qinghe, based on his memory, recounted it roughly to the old chief.

Hearing about such an exciting chess match, the old chief became even more interested, set up the board, and asked Zhou Qinghe to recreate the chess game of that time.

Zhou Qinghe relied on his memory to recreate the final stalemate.

Seeing such a stalemate, the old chief was extremely surprised too.

"I know Master Ye's chess skills. How could he be forced into such a situation?" In the old chief's eyes, what unfolded wasn't a certain opening from chess manuals, but a setup where multiple pieces besieged together, so even if you broke the first layer, there was a second layer; it was a chain trap, leaving no path.

More importantly, with Master Ye's prowess, how could he leave such an opportunity for Yang Chen to set up? Wasn't there any detection at all?

Thinking of this, the old chief urgently instructed, "Quick! Set up the earlier situation as you described; I want to see Yang Chen's earlier chess game!"

"Yes!" Zhou Qinghe once again recreated the chess game as described before Yang Chen spoke, prior to Master Ye choosing checkmate.

Seeing the recreated game, the old chief suddenly realized.

"Feign disorder to lure the enemy! Master Ye's offensive mindset was too strong! Instead, he was deceived by Yang Chen!" the old chief slowly said.

Zhou Qinghe added from the side, "Yes, Master Ye was always in an attacking state, while Yang Chen was always defending!"

"Not defending!" the old chief shook his head, "It was setting up and misleading the opponent!"

Zhou Qinghe was a bit confused.

The old chief slowly said, "Just as the ancients said, playing chess is like commanding an army. One's ability in chess reflects their military tactics. The ancients viewed chess as a battlefield, where strategy is crucial, and Yang Chen is a master of this! Not only in modern times but even in ancient times, he would be a general of historical renown!"

Zhou Qinghe was shocked, not expecting that based on one chess game, the old chief would give such high praise to Yang Chen.

The old chief stared at the chess game, his eyes flickering.

After a long while, the old chief gravely said, "A tall tree attracts the wind's destruction!"

...

Ningchuan.

A certain base.

Meng Po walked briskly through the base, with Zhao Feiyang following behind.

"Remember! As the intelligence-gathering center here, no one other than security personnel and staff is allowed to know about this place. Furthermore, make sure the self-destruct program is fully established; it's better to die than to leave any clues for the enemy, understood?"

"Yes!" Zhao Feiyang nodded repeatedly.

From the day Zhao Feiyang arrived in Flame Country, he never expected that alongside business, he would also have to handle such classified intelligence matters.

"Additionally, not only with the digital materials but also paper items, in case of any emergency, destroy everything!"

"Yes!"

"Is the encrypted mainframe ready?" Meng Po asked.

"It's ready!"

Zhao Feiyang led Meng Po to a separate room.

Upon entering, Meng Po commanded seriously, "Get out!"

"Yes!"

After Zhao Feiyang exited, Meng Po started the mainframe.

As the machine booted, various protection programs activated simultaneously.

Browsing on the deep web is akin to streaking down the street; without proper protective measures, one could easily get attacked.

Moreover, this computer's network is isolated, so even if it's invaded, no information can be obtained.

Soon, Meng Po entered the deep web and sent a message to Asura Hall.

There was initially no response from their side.

Meng Po waited quietly.

Finally, after a long while, there was a response from the other side.

"Here!"

Seeing this message, Meng Po immediately sent a video request.

In no time, the screen showed the figure of End Fox, his face smeared with bloodstains.

Seeing this scene, Meng Po's heart tensed up.

"What happened?" Meng Po asked worriedly.

Seeing his own state, End Fox wiped his face and reassured, "It's nothing, the blood is someone else's; went out today and ran into a bit of trouble!"

Meng Po refused to believe it, staring at End Fox coldly, "Tell me! What exactly happened!"

Seeing Meng Po's frosty expression, End Fox reluctantly said, "Our people were besieged outside, and they also attacked our school!"

"What!" Meng Po slammed the table and stood up!
