The Peremptory Casey Davies novel Chapter 274

Scarlett looked both confused and surprised. She had thought that she was going to win, feeling a

bit of complacency in her heart, thinking that it wouldn't take long for Casey to lose in this game,

and then she could mock Casey.

But she never expected that Casey would block all her way with just one piece, and that she had attacked too aggressively at the very beginning that it didn’t leave herself many options to escape from his trap now.

Although the game was not over yet, Scarlett knew in her heart that no matter how hard she tried to remedy the situation, she would not be able to win this game.

Dexter was full of shock as he saw the situation on the chessboard changing so quickly. This move of Casey, even Dexter himself did not expect it.

"Acacia... Acacia Break! This is Acacia Break!" Dexter exclaimed.

Luna glanced at the chessboard with some confusion, although she also liked to play chess, she did not know what Acacia Break was.

"Master, what is Acacia Break?" Luna turned her head and asked Owen.

Owen took a deep breath and said, "Acacia Break is a quite powerful strategy among Go, this kind of strategy often looks quite ordinary at the beginning, but in fact, every move is a secret layout, the opponent under the trap will mistakenly think that his opponent's skill is not good, so there are many people that will choose to attack fiercely under this situation."

"And Acacia Break is exactly the nemesis of this kind of person who likes to attack fiercely, once they enter the trap of Acacia Break, often only one piece is needed to block all the opponent's retreats."

"The most powerful thing about this kind of strategy is that it can make you enter his trap unknowingly, you think you are going to win, but this is just the illusion he gives you,who will win is already decided when the one enters the trap."

"Although the Acacia Break is powerful, but the difficulty of using it can be unimaginable. It requires a strong and fast running brain of the player. If an ordinary player uses this strategy, he would have already stepped into his own mess not until he reverts the situation in the end."

After listening to Owen’s explanation, Luna revealed a look that was full of admiration and said, "Wow, wouldn't that make Casey very powerful?"

"He is far beyond a master. There is not so many masters that could use the Acacia Break. Even Mr. Williams said clearly a few years ago that he couldn't use this kind of strategy. It seems that Casey really didn't brag anything. Even if Mr. Williams comes to compete with him, Casey may win against him too." Oven said.

Dexter had been completely shocked by Casey's move, even he himself, facing this kind of attacking, there was absolutely no possibility for him to revert the situation in the end.

He looked at Casey with a complicated expression. Until now, he realized that Casey was not bragging at all, he was afraid that this young man's level was already far above his.

"The game is not over yet, let's continue." Casey said.

Scarlett was full of shame, how could she have the mood to continue playing chess at this time, she was so contemptuous and mocked Casey at the beginning, now Casey proved himself with his amazing skill, she only felt that she was an arrogant fool in front of him.

Lukas didn't know much about Go, he only knew that Scarlett hadn't lost yet. Seeing that Scarlett was sitting still, he said, "Sister Scarlett, what are you waiting for, you haven’t lost the game yet. Your level is much higher than his. Try again and use your brain to beat this loser down."

Scarlett immediately glared at Lukas, she now hated her brother, if he hadn't come and said Casey was a loser, she wouldn't have believed him and despised Casey as he did.

"Whether you will win or lose, finishing the game is a respect for Go itself." Casey said peacefully.

When Scarlett heard Casey's words, she immediately took a deep breath, then nodded seriously and continued to play the game with Casey.

Dexter shook his head helplessly, he was also clear that no matter how hard Scarlett resisted, there was no chance to win.

However, she felt that Casey's words were also reasonable, just through these words, she was able to see Casey's character.

To be able to have such a calm and steady character at such a young age was not often seen among people of his age, especially someone like Casey who could achieve to such a high level.

Lukas had only shown some talents in business and already had thought he was the most gifted person in the world, while Casey had reached the top level of Go, but showed no restlessness, he was the kind of person who could really achieve great things.

Owen saw that Casey was about to win, he showed a smug smile, and walked to Dexter and said, "How about it, I told you before that Casey was not as easy as you thought, now you are convinced, right?"

Dexter was embarrassed and said, "Of course, I really didn't expect you to find such a great person to represent you, at first I thought that even if you were looking for someone, you wouldn't be able to find someone that was very great, it seems that I was overconfident."

After a short time, Casey dropped his last piece, Scarlett stood up directly, bowed to Casey with a face full of shame, and said, "I have lost, I apologize for my contempt to you before, I hope I can get your forgiveness."
