Chapter 1066: Chapter 873 3D Dragon: ???_2
As Eevee touched the giant black display screen wall, lamenting whether it would be enjoyable to watch a movie on this device, it was suddenly lifted into the air by Fang Yuan's Confusion.
Eevee: (# ̄~ ̄#)
"Come down," Fang Yuan said to Eevee.
"Bwoo!!"
Eevee's eyebrows furrowed as it was held up in the air by Fang Yuan's superpower.
Chess?
She had grown bored of that dull game long ago.
"You might not necessarily be able to beat them," Fang Yuan spoke up.
"Bwoo?!"
Goad me? How primitive!
"Letting Eevee play chess??"
When Fang Yuan made the decision, both Professor Zhao Qiuyuan and Xia Xiaowei were stunned and voiced their confusion.
Fang Yuan wasn't joking, was he?
Although Fang Yuan's Eevee was strong, Eevee as a species wasn't really smarter or more capable of logical thinking and computation than a high school student who had been systematically educated.
It is a well-known fact that the intelligence of most Pokemon is comparable to that of a child.
Only the rare Psychic Type creatures like the Huge Gold Monster and Hudidi have slightly higher abilities.
To let an "ordinary-bodied" Pokemon play chess against a program spirit that had recorded almost an infinite variety of chess data... this...
"Bwoo??!" Fang Yuan alone was manageable, but seeing the other two extras look at her with skeptical eyes, Eevee couldn't stand it.
If it's chess, then let's play chess.
Just an Alpha chess program...
"Bwoo!!" Eevee nodded.
Fang Yuan wanted to watch, Eevee wanted to play, so naturally, Professor Zhao Qiuyuan had no objections.
With curiosity, he quickly booted up a computer and casually let a 3D Dragon enter it, turning into a chess program.
Meanwhile, Eevee climbed onto the keyboard, touched the mouse, and stared at the screen with great energy.
Although it verbally expressed its disinterest, its body betrayed its honest excitement when facing a computer.
"It should lose pretty quickly," "and it will be a pitiful defeat," thought Professor Zhao Qiuyuan and Xia Xiaowei as they watched the enthusiastic Eevee.
"Haha... let's not worry about it for now; this game of chess is probably going to take a long time," Fang Yuan laughed.
The idea of playing chess was just something Fang Yuan came up with to kill time; next, he wanted to use this time to observe each 3D Dragon's talents.
Then decide which one to choose.
"Professor Zhao, is it alright if these 3D Dragons are fed some food?" Fang Yuan asked.
"No problem..." Professor Zhao said.
Since 3D Dragons are entirely man-made, they don't need to eat, but they can still be fed tree fruit, electricity, juice, and food.
And the 3D Dragons can indeed absorb nutrients normally from these foods.
This is another method for 3D Dragons to become stronger, apart from data upgrades, but the efficiency is much lower. To start with, the 3D Dragon's digestive capability is amongst the worst.
"Then there's no problem," Fang Yuan exclaimed. "Glutton."
As Fang Yuan spoke, his shadow suddenly lengthened and turned into a Gengar, startling both Professor Zhao and Xia Xiaowei.
However, this Gengar was merely Fang Yuan's spatial storage.
After calling out the Gengar, Fang Yuan directly pulled out a container from its belly that contained a dozen Awakening Fruits.
"These are Awakening Fruits, which have the chance to teach Pokemon who consume them the Awakened power... I plan to use these to test the talents of these 3D Dragons. I heard they digest slowly?? I wonder if they could digest it in 2 or 3 hours..." Fang Yuan said, pondering with the Awakening Fruits in hand.
"In my estimation, 3D Dragons also have the potential to learn Awakened powers, the possibility to learn new skills beyond data upgrades. Could that be possible?"
This...
Professor Zhao, Xia Xiaowei: ....
Ah.
Truly worthy of the Awakening God.
Such a bold approach to selecting Pokemon and testing their talents...
The price of Awakening Fruits is astronomical!!!
However, feeding 3D Dragons the Awakening Fruits... there seems to be no precedent, could there be any problems??!
Professor Zhao and Xia student were nervous and apprehensive.
Unfortunately, neither of them dared to say much more. In their line of sight, Fang Yuan had already generously stuffed a pile of the invaluable Awakening Fruit, like handing out fruit to children, into the mouths of the 3D Dragons.
"Take your time to digest it, and keep it up," Fang Yuan cheered them on at the same time.
Pop!! Pop!! Pop!!! Pop!!!
At this moment, Eevee had already started a chess game with the 3D Dragons.
Hearing the sound of chess being played, Professor Zhao and Xia student then remembered that there was still a game going on.
Seeing Eevee holding the mouse and playing chess so professionally, the two were flabbergasted.
However, deep down they still couldn't believe that an Eevee could play chess.
If an Eevee could win against the Alpha 3D Dragons, they'd stand on their heads and drink Sprite!
However.
What they didn't know was that Eevee actually could play chess.
Although the game was quite dull for it, it was one of the few games available in the Secret Location that didn't require an internet connection early on.
After the Destruction Gene had developed its brain domain, Eevee's computational level was in no way inferior to Psychic Type Elves; evolving into Sun Eevee and after numerous practice sessions, its chess skills were almost on par with the top human chess players.
Of course, at this time, Eevee was still no match for artificial intelligence.
But since Fang Yuan began to train Eevee to predict the future through games, the tide had started to turn for Eevee.
Even though at first Eevee still couldn't defeat artificial intelligence, it persisted longer and longer over time.
Until after using a large number of Time Flowers, Fang Yuan trained Eevee's Predictive Ability to the extreme for an Ordinary Elf, and in the game of Go, it could play evenly against ordinary artificial intelligence systems, which was well within Eevee's capabilities.
If the 3D Dragons present were the final version of the Alpha 3D Dragons, it might be tough for Eevee to handle them.
But the actual situation was that they had only recently begun deep learning, and their strength had not yet surpassed the human domain by much; they had weaknesses.
So as the game went on, the pupils of Professor Zhao Qiuyuan and Xia Xiaowei began to dilate slowly.
As black and white pieces fell one by one, their expressions turned to astonishment.
Both of their areas of expertise were related to the 3D Dragons, so they naturally understood the current Alpha Go System of the 3D Dragons, which was practically a level that had surpassed professional human players.
However, now an Eevee was actually on par with the Alpha 3D Dragon??!
"Eevee, use God's Hand!!" On the side, Fang Yuan, although a terrible chess player, couldn't help but issue a move command.
Eevee: ...
Pop! Pop! Pop!
About two hours later.
Although Eevee's thinking time (predicting the future) became longer every time, on the 3D Dragons' side, each move also began to require a tremendous amount of time for deductions.
After two hours of play, Eevee made an unexpected move that triggered a bug in the 3D Dragons, causing their data to become chaotic.
Subsequently, the 3D Dragons made the move that took the longest time to deduce in the entire game.
By then, everyone could see the 3D Dragons were at a disadvantage.
As the countdown started, Professor Zhao and Xia student couldn't help but swallow their saliva frantically.
What the hell?!!
Beep!!
Black resigns and admits defeat!!
[Assessment of this game]3D Dragon: #¥#@¥@%¥@#
Eevee: "Bwoo!!"
Eevee, with a headache, had secured the victory; this is why it didn't like playing chess against artificial intelligence. It was just too difficult to win a game.
Good thing this one wasn't too strong.
Once it finally predicted the opponent's flaw, Eevee decisively secured the victory.
It was too bad Victini wasn't here; otherwise, it would have had quite a feast from this game.
Eevee massaged its head vigorously.
"This this this…"
On the side, Professor Zhao, looking at Eevee rubbing its head, displayed a shocked expression, turning to Fang Yuan.
He really wanted to ask some questions, but didn't know where to begin.
How in the world was this Eevee trained???
Xia Xiaowei also wore a horrified expression, that an Eevee could defeat an Alpha 3D Dragon in a game of Go... it was just too preposterous.
She would rather believe that Eevee could single-handedly take on a Legendary Pokémon.
"Let's not worry about that for now."
"One of the 3D Dragons seems to have awakened its Awakened Power!" Fang Yuan's gaze was now drawn to another spot.
