Chapter 64 Backgammon, Sunflower

The river was not deep, and with Malcolm watching, Ron didn't have to worry about Melitoya and Erin's safety.

Sig stepped forward, saluted and said, "Lord, further ahead is the habitat of the second-level monsters."

His current strength has improved by leaps and bounds, and he can easily fight against second-level monsters, but when encountering groups of monsters, he cannot take care of so many people.

Ron nodded to express his understanding, and Sig stopped saying anything and stepped aside.

He looked at Irene walking over with a handful of black and white stones in her hand, smiled with white teeth and said, "Lord, look at this stone. Touch it to see if it is smooth!"

Ron picked up one from Erin's hand and determined that these pebbles were pebbles. These pebbles varied in size, the largest being only the size of his palm. They were washed away by river water and gravel at the bottom of the river bed all year round, resulting in an extremely smooth surface.

He stroked the pebbles with his hands, and they felt extremely comfortable. He smiled and said, "It would be great to polish such pebbles and use them to make chess pieces."

Erin tilted her head, "Chess piece? What is that? It shouldn't be for eating."

Boom.

The next second, Ron tapped her head lightly, "Just know eating. I'm talking about a puzzle game, consisting of black and white chess pieces and a chess board."

As he spoke, his eyes fell on Melitoya, and something in his heart seemed to allow Melitoya to develop her intelligence while playing chess.

When she heard that it was not food, Irene lost interest and ran to the river to fish for pebbles.

However, Joyce and Theresa behind him were very interested. Theresa was surprised by Ron's erudition, and Joyce aroused curiosity in his heart. This kind of chess consisting of black and white was not in the book. appeared.

"Lord, can you tell me how this game is played?" Joyce rarely spoke about things other than work.

Ron nodded and said: "Oral presentation is not as good as live demonstration. It just so happens that most of the pebbles picked up by Erin and Melitoya are black and white, so let's use these as chess pieces."

Then, he asked Sig to cut the pebbles into chess pieces of the same size and shape. Upon hearing this, Ibuprofen volunteered to join in and compete with Sig.

"Sig, do you dare to compete with me in speed? You make white chess pieces and I make black chess pieces." Ibuprofen said.

Sig looked at him sideways, raised his hand and passed over his bald head, "Come on, the lord is still waiting."

Ibuprofen looked at Sig's bald head, the corners of his mouth twitched, then he picked up the stones and started carving them with his sword.

The two of them already knew the specifications of the chess pieces, and being extraordinary beings, they easily completed the first chess piece quickly.

On the other side, Ron asked Abel to flatten a large bluestone by the river and carve it into a crisscross grid.

"Melitoya, send over the carved chess piece."

"Okay, brother."

Although it was a very ordinary and trivial matter, Melitoya felt happy at the thought that she could help Ron.

"Come on, sit down."

Ron raised his hand and asked Joyce to sit across from him, and then talked about the rules of chess, "The name of this chess game is - 'Gomoku'."

After some explanations and demonstrations, the onlookers all understood the rules of backgammon.

Joyce: "This type of chess looks simple, but the chess pieces are staggered and can be connected horizontally and vertically to form five pieces. It requires careful thinking about the previous moves to create more possibilities behind."

Ron nodded with satisfaction, "Come on, the theory is just a theory, try it in the next game."

Sig and Ibuprofen have already carved a lot of chess pieces, and Ron doesn't think that with his backgammon skills, he needs to play the entire chessboard to win against Joyce, who is a novice.

"Ladies first." Ron handed the initiative to Joyce.

Hearing this, Joyce's pretty face became slightly hot, she picked up a white chess piece and played it in the center.

riverside.

Eileen was fishing for stones, and the two knights worked hard to carve the stones that Eileen fished out.

Melitoya turned into a hard-working porter, transporting the carved chess pieces to the chessboard. Even if it was boring running back and forth, little Mellie enjoyed it.

Ron and Joyce sat opposite each other. Compared to Joyce's frown, Ron looked relaxed and content.

Abel, Malcolm and Theresa stood behind the two of them and watched the chess game, thinking about where they would make the next move if it were them.

Seeing that everyone had something to do, Nancy curled her lips, puffed up her cheeks and squatted beside the chessboard, her eyes just level with the chessboard, and she didn't know what she was looking at.

After more than ten moves, Joyce was defeated. She bit her lip and reviewed the previous chess game in her mind.

"It's good to be able to do it like this for the first time. You are very talented. Come again." Ron smiled.

Joyce stood up and bowed slightly, "Thank you, Lord, for your guidance. This round will be left to Miss Theresa."

Seeing Joyce giving way, Ron said nothing.

"Thanks."

Teresa thanked her politely. She didn't have to do this because of her status. She could see that Joyce was a confidant specially trained by Ron, otherwise she wouldn't have specially ordered him to be brought out.

"Please, Miss Teresa."

Ron smiled and made a gesture of invitation, and the two began to play chess.

Later, Ron played several games with the two women in succession. There were more and more black and white chess pieces on the chessboard, and the time it took him to win the chess game also increased.

Gradually, he felt the pressure.

Backgammon is not an advanced chess game. Once you fully understand the rules, it is easy to get started.

"Melitoya, come here, I'll teach you how to play chess!"

After winning against Joyce again, Ron shouted to Melitoya who kept running in both directions.

The lord taught his sister how to play chess, and the two girls could no longer occupy the position, and then joined the crowd during the game.

Hearing her brother's call, Melitoya trotted over and sat obediently on the stone pier. She had also listened to the rules just now, but she hadn't started yet.

When children are interested in these things, they learn things very quickly. After playing a game of chess with Ron, they are already good at it.

On the side, Abel glanced at the sky, saluted Ron and said, "Lord, I'm very sorry to disturb your interest, but we should go back."

It was approaching noon and it was time for lunch.

Ron put down his chess and stood up, "It's getting late, let them stop and go back."

Abel: "Then these chess pieces."

Ron glanced at it and said, "It's up to you."

Nancy couldn't help but said: "What about the material I'm looking for!"

After hearing this, Ron remembered the purpose of his trip to the Black Valley Forest. He said: "Next time, go back and fill your stomach first."

Nancy pouted to express her dissatisfaction, but it was not without gain this time. Thinking of the new materials collected in her backpack, her slight dissatisfaction quickly disappeared.

"Ibuprofen Knight, please take this bluestone chessboard back with you," Joyce said.

"I'll take care of the little things."

Ibuprofen had an entry on improving arm strength. He looked at the size of the bluestone and said it was no problem.

Everyone packed up their things and headed back the way they came.

Along the way, Eileen followed Ron, making a clanking sound as she walked. Ron looked at her bag and asked helplessly: "You have all the pebbles in your pocket?"

"Yeah, it feels very comfortable to touch. I want to take it back and collect it." Irene nodded.

Ron agreed with what she said, and he was thinking about asking Eileen for a few to play with when he got back, and see if he could get good entries.

For example, brush some ‘Five Elements Spiritual Bead’ or something like that.

Not far along the way, Abel and Sig suddenly stepped in front of everyone and said, "Lord, be careful, there are monsters ahead!"

Monster!

Except for the horned rabbit on the table, Ron had never seen a real monster. He suddenly became interested and stood there waiting for the monster to appear.

Soon, a two-meter-tall black shadow slowly walked out of the forest. Seeing the true face of the monster, Ron's eyes widened, his expression slightly shocked.

Abel stared at the monster and said, "How come there is a second-level Jin Kui in the periphery? Come with Sig and fight quickly."

Sig nodded, and he decided to use all his strength to defeat the monster in front of him.

In front of everyone is a plant-like monster. It walks on its own roots. On top of its thick rhizomes is a huge flower disk, surrounded by golden petals.

Abel said it was a golden sunflower, but in Ron's eyes it was a moving sunflower!

Moreover, there are countless fruits densely packed in the flower plate, commonly known as melon seeds!

Seeing that Abel and Sig were about to rush forward and kill the monster, Ron shouted: "Save it alive!"

"Why do you keep such a monster?"

Ron looked at Nancy who was speaking, "Do you know much about it?"

Nancy nodded, "Monsters like golden sunflowers are very common. Because of their habits, they leave fruits in the flower trays wherever they go. If the fruits are submerged in the soil for a period of time, new golden sunflowers will grow again."

"Because it is so prevalent, the Adventurers Association has a lot of headaches, but there is no good way to completely get rid of this fast-growing monster."

Ron narrowed his eyes slightly, "You mean there are many such monsters?"

Nancy nodded affirmatively, "There are many, but the second-order golden sunflowers encountered today are very rare. They are usually at the first-order level, and rarely can break through to the second-order."

Not far away, Abel and Sig quickly subdued Jin Kui. The battle just happened very quickly, and a monster fell to the ground.

"Lord, what should we do next?"

Ron pointed to the sunflower seeds on the flower plate and asked Nancy: "Are the fruits growing on them poisonous? Well, in other words, can they be eaten?"

Nancy was startled and shook her head: "The golden sunflower is non-toxic. It just attacks with the fruits that grow on its body. It doesn't matter even if it runs out, it will grow back soon anyway."

Ron felt relieved when he got the exact answer.

"Pick all the fruits on the flower plate and take them back. I can use them." Ron ordered.

Eileen suddenly came over and asked with gleaming eyes: "Lord, is it edible?"

"You guessed it right this time. There are many uses for sunflower seeds. The simplest of them is to dry them and then eat them after frying them." Ron said simply, and Eileen remembered it firmly in her heart.

After collecting all the sunflower seeds, everyone left the Black Valley Forest. As for the monster that had all the sunflower seeds stripped away, it remained in the forest.

This spur-of-the-moment outing quickly came to an end, and everyone gained a lot and returned to the mansion.

"Lord Baron, thank you for the invitation. I am very happy today." Theresa thanked her.

"You're welcome. I'll invite you next time I get the chance. I hope Miss Theresa won't refuse." Ron chuckled.

"Of course not, I'd be happy to accept your invitation."

The two chatted for a few words and then ended the conversation.

Teresa returned to the room, and Melitoya's face was still filled with excitement. Ron smiled and said, "Melitoa, did you have fun today?"

"happy!"

"That's good. I'll give you an assignment later. You can write a review of today's play and give it to Joyce for review."

Upon hearing this, Melitoya was dumbfounded and said hesitantly: "Brother, there are still many words that I can't write."

"It's okay, I can't write it. Just read it and let Eileen write it." Ron had already thought of a way for Melitoya.

"Ah? Why do you still have something to do with me?" Irene was still thinking about the sunflower seeds when she suddenly heard her name and grimaced.

"If I can't write well, I won't have any popsicles for a week." After finishing speaking, Ron entered the room.

The bluestone chessboard was brought back from the Black Valley Forest and Ron asked them to place it under the Mirakle tree in the front yard.

In the future, if anyone wants to play chess, they can go there, which is an additional form of entertainment.

After lunch.

Diana reports to Ron in the study.

"The new costumes look good. You did a good job on this." Ron looked at the new maid uniform worn by Diana and was very satisfied.

Compared with the previous traditional decoration, the new maid uniform is more beautiful. The skirt is often decorated with patterns, the neckline is tied with a bow, and the headdress is no longer a common wrapping cloth, but a hairpin ribbon.

Gee, this designer is really a talent.

Ron sighed in his heart, making the already beautiful Diana even more beautiful.

"I'm sorry, Lord."

Diana lowered her head in shame and said in an apologetic tone.

"Oh? Why are you apologizing?" Ron was confused.

"I did not accomplish what you asked. I failed to live up to your expectations." Diana lowered her head even further, and Ron felt burdened by her.

"Who did that? Anyway, it's a good thing and you don't need to blame yourself."

Diana raised her head and said, "It's Rosalind. She is outstanding. From the costume design to the finding of fabrics, she is the only one responsible."

Ron remembered the name, she was Egbert's granddaughter, and he hadn't checked Rosalind's character card yet.

Hearing the always stern Diana praise a person so much, Ron had an idea in his mind that this Rosalind might have high-quality entries.

"You ask her to come."

Diana bowed to the order and left the study to summon Rosalind. Rosalind, who was cleaning the corridor, knew what was going on and had expected it when she heard the lord's summons.

Soon, Rosalind was taken to the study.

In her impression, the study is a place where the lord often spends time. Except for a few people, no one else is allowed to set foot in the mansion.

Ron looked at the beautiful girl in front of him. She had very beautiful silver hair, delicate facial features, skin as white as snow, and paired with the new maid uniform, she looked like she had stepped out of a painting.

He waved to Rosalind, drawing her closer.

"Rosalind, Egbert's granddaughter. It was you who planned the new clothes for the mansion. You have very good execution skills." Ron said as he stood up and came to Rosalind's side.

"Lord, you are exaggerating. I just want to help the head maid and take away your worries." Rosalind replied with a low eyebrow.

Hearing this, Ron raised his eyebrows and spoke a few more unrelated things. Rosalind was able to pick up the words and answer them perfectly.

"Xavier from West Street Academy is your teacher, right?" Ron asked, but his tone was very sure.

"Yes, Teacher Xavier is very good, and all the students in the school respect him." Rosalind smiled. Xavier's name entered the Lord's ears. The higher the influence in the future, the more beneficial it will be to her plan. .

"I see, great teachers make great disciples."

Ron nodded, then picked up a piece of paper on the table and handed it over. Rosalind reached out to take it, and inadvertently, the two of them touched.

Character cards are generated.
