Because even Mr. Thorne hasn’t figured out a way to crack the Rossary Strategy yet.
She really made a mountain out of a molehill.
However, Rachel Ross had already taken a few steps, and there was no turning back. She could only grit her teeth and continue using the Rossary Strategy.
Sumr Monroe was playing, at first without feeling anything amiss.
Until almost a minute passed, she suddenly felt Rachel’s moves were a bit familiar.
No, not a bit familiar, extrely familiar!
Sumr couldn’t help but pause her moves, seriously looking at the chessboard.
Finally, Sumr raised her eyelids, she rembered!
Isn’t this the move she played against Old Man Thorne in Rossary?
Back then, she had just had a brainwave and made this move casually, winning against Old Man Thorne, who exclaid "marvelous" three tis and imdiately wanted to be her apprentice.
How can Rachel have the exact sa thought process as she did back then?
Sumr suddenly recalled that Rachel had ntioned her chess teacher was Old Man Thorne, which ant that Old Man Thorne had told Rachel about their match in Rossary.
Sumr found it sowhat amusing and twitched the corners of her mouth.
However, opposite her, Rachel saw Sumr, who had been rapidly making moves just now, suddenly stop. With a smirk, she looked at Sumr and asked, "What? Can’t continue? It’s too late to admit defeat now; get ready to kneel!"
Sumr looked at Rachel with interest; she already knew what Rachel’s next moves would be.
She withdrew her gaze, pretending to be unaware, and continued the battle with Rachel.
Rachel was making her moves, watching Sumr walk into the trap set by the Rossary Strategy, laughing sarcastically: "Are you crazy? With your moves, two steps and you’ll lose. But once placed, the move is irrevocable, I’ll keep going."
Sumr didn’t say anything, just tapped the chess table, indicating for her to proceed.
"Facing doom yet pretending to be calm, how laughable!" Rachel snorted coldly, continuing as her teacher had taught her.
Sumr watched Rachel indeed make the exact sa moves she did back then, and her eyes looked at the clock beside her.
She spoke calmly, "I said I’d beat you in two minutes, and then you’d have to kneel. There’s still thirty seconds left, you can concede now, and you won’t have to kneel."
She planned to give Rachel one last chance on behalf of Isaac.
However, Rachel listened and laughed.
"Do you know what you’re saying? Once you make this move, you’ll lose."
Sumr didn’t respond, just reminded, "You have twenty-seven seconds left to concede."
Rachel rolled her eyes directly.
In the finals, people inside could freely observe the matches. Most gathered at Damian Knight’s table or Mr. Irving’s, while there were no watchers at Sumr’s side.
Just then, soone bored ca over to this table to watch.
The next mont, that person shouted in surprise, "Everyone co and see! It’s the famous Rossary Strategy!"
Sumr looked at that person in shock.
The moves she played casually had turned into the "famous Rossary Strategy"?
As soon as the person shouted, many rushed over to see the "Rossary Strategy."
"It’s really the Rossary Strategy!"
"Indeed, being a student of Mr. Thorne, she learned the Rossary Strategy!"
"What? She’s actually a student of Mr. Thorne? If I’d known, I would have co earlier!"
So kindhearted people reminded Sumr:
"Miss, we haven’t figured out a counterplay for the Rossary Strategy yet, I think... you might as well concede."
