#1226 - Chapter 1226 The Weakest and the Strongest
“You win.”
“Draw.”
“Draw.”
“Draw.”
“You win.”
“......”
One game after another, of different kinds of chess, appeared and quickly disappeared before Wu Wei and the Abyss Master.
From the moment they sat down until now, the two had played countless games of chess.
Hundreds?
Thousands?
Or tens of thousands?
Wu Wei himself had lost count.
He only knew one thing.
That was, he was constantly winning chess games against the Abyss Master.
Although eight or nine out of ten games with the Abyss Master ended in a draw.
The problem was.
In those games where a winner could be determined, Wu Wei always won.
And he, never won a single game.
The Abyss Master opposite him would dim a little with each lost game.
This change was clearly visible.
So, even though Wu Wei didn't know what the other party's purpose was.
He still tried his best to win every chess game against him.
Every single one!
However, although Wu Wei was nominally winning.
The problem was that Wu Wei found that his wins were often very narrow.
So small that they could be ignored.
To be precise, he won very miserably.
However, the Abyss Master didn't care about all this.
As long as Wu Wei won, he would generously admit it, not caring about anything else.
And more importantly, although Wu Wei was often very slow to notice things.
After countless chess games, he still discovered the terror of the Abyss Master.
That was, the schemes and plots in the other party's chess games were interconnected.
Many times, if he hadn't thought carefully and trusted his intuition, he would have easily lost the game.
Even.
If Wu Wei made a single mistake, he would lose.
This pressure was enormous.
But it was precisely this immense pressure that made Wu Wei a little curious.
Was the guy sitting in front of him too rational?
You know.
In Wu Wei's eyes, the other party was too calm.
So calm that Wu Wei began to feel a sense of inexplicable fear towards him.
This inexplicable fear, although it wouldn't affect Wu Wei's chess game, still made him feel very painful.
It was as if his so-called wins didn't affect him achieving his goal at all.
But no matter what.
The chess game continued!
And the balance of victory was still tilting towards Wu Wei's side.

“You win.”
Finally, after who knows how long.
The last chess game between Wu Wei and the Abyss Master had completely ended.
And at this time, the Abyss Master's figure had become very blurred.
“Then, if I win.”
“Will your consciousness completely disappear from my mind?”
Wu Wei asked the Abyss Master.
And the Abyss Master nodded.
“That's right.”
“You're absolutely right.”
“The chess game between you and me is actually just a figurative scenario of two consciousnesses fighting for your own will.”
“Congratulations.”
“Your performance has made my consciousness no longer accepted by your will.”
“Why do you say that?”
Wu Wei asked curiously.
“Because....”
“Your consciousness has defeated me.”
“And your will will only be willing to accept the consciousness that won.”
“Just as life finds its own way, will also chooses the stronger consciousness to become its master.”
The Abyss Master said with a smile.
Although he was smiling, Wu Wei couldn't smile at all.
“Then, before you disappear, can I ask you a question?”
“You may.”
“I want to know, am I now equivalent to having defeated you in your strongest state.”
“After all, you are the Abyss Master.”
“The great, omniscient, and omnipotent Abyss Master!”
Wu Wei said excitedly.
But unfortunately.
“No.”
“What you just defeated.”
“Was just...”
“An Abyss Master who could accept his own defeat.”
“At that time, he was indeed the strongest, but at the same time.”
“He was also the weakest!”
