Evil Emperor Zun

Chapter 793 Guess the Number

"He also chooses ordinary keys, so now there are two ordinary keys and one golden key." After a while, Liang Xia finally concluded.

"If we choose the common key, we've already lost, but if we both choose the golden key, the number of golden keys will become three, and then we'll still lose!" The more he analyzed, the more Liang Xia realized the situation severe.

"If we all choose the common key, it's like giving away the golden key to win." Li Yue's face was also gloomy.Why no matter how you look at it now...they seem to have lost?unless……

"Therefore, one of us must choose the ordinary key and the other the golden key." Finally, Liang Xia expressed her conclusion on her behalf.

Then, the two fell into a long silence.

Doing so can indeed ensure the victory of the golden key, but it also represents the self-sacrifice of the side who chooses the ordinary key.Who would be willing to take on this role?

"Hey, why don't you choose an ordinary key?" After a while, Li Yue tentatively persuaded, "In this way, I can definitely win!"

"Why!" Liang Xia reacted greatly, "Points cannot be transferred, so what's the benefit for me to cooperate with you? Why don't you choose an ordinary key yourself?"

Li Yue was persuasive: "No matter which one we choose now, it's impossible to win anyway! It's better to save one than to die both! Besides, women come first!"

Liang Xia spat disdainfully: "Women first? You still tell me this in this kind of place? I don't care, or live together. If I want to die, I'd rather die together!"

Negotiations stalled and the atmosphere became silent again.

"By the way, can we try a way to turn around..." At the last moment of the time limit, Liang Xia suddenly had a whim in despair.

"It's possible that what the prefect said was lying to us from the beginning to the end?"

"He knows that if the situation becomes like this, we won't be willing to choose the golden key, and then they will choose the golden key by themselves..." Liang Xia began to get excited, "If this is the case! Choose the ordinary key There will be fewer people! If the two of us choose ordinary keys, maybe we can make a strange move and win in one fell swoop!"

"Then what do you mean..." Li Yue went to the doctor in a hurry, "We all choose ordinary keys?"

Liang Xia nodded vigorously: "Well, in case they all go to choose the golden key, if we also choose, there will be five golden keys. But if the soldiers are divided into two groups... if there is only one ordinary key in the end The key represents his complete victory, and it is unfair to the other person who chooses the golden key! I think, between the two of us, no one would be willing to choose!"

"So... Sure enough, we all choose ordinary keys, which is the best choice!"

Although there is really no basis for this inference, since there is not much time, the two have no time to think about it. After reaching a consensus in such a hurry, they entered the room separately.

Then, it was time for the results to be published.

Li Yue, Pu.

Liang Xia, Pu.

Li Yue and Liang Xia looked at each other, and both swallowed nervously.They know that the choice of the next person will directly dominate the overall result!
The third line slowly emerged.

Huang Fuli, Pu.

He actually chose the common key!So far, the common key party is doomed to fail!This round is the victory of the golden key!

Li Yue and Liang Xia beat their chests and stamped their feet in remorse, but then, a more terrifying thought popped into their minds.

If...the three people just now really didn't lie...Ye Shuo would choose the golden key, and Tantaijing would choose the ordinary key. In this way, wouldn't Ye Shuo become the only golden key and get All points? !

The text continues to scroll.

Ye Shuo, Pu.

Li Yue and Liang Xia were taken aback, but Huangfuli looked normal.Then, the shocked two turned their gazes to Tantai Jing at the same time.

Could it be that he has already seen through everything and deliberately said that he would choose the public key, making us realize that there is no chance of winning, and our minds are in turmoil. At this time, he will persuade Ye Shuo to choose the public key, and then he will take the opportunity to choose the golden key. Win a complete victory?

Tantaijing remained silent, but there was indeed a hint of joy on his face.

On the screen, the last line of text scrolled out.

Tan Taijing, Pu.

Five ordinary keys, finally got together!

"It seems that the plan is going smoother than expected." In the background where the jaws of the two people on the side were so shocked that their jaws would drop, Huangfuli said to himself lightly.

"What are you talking about, is this all planned by you?" Ye Shuo turned his head in confusion.

At first, Huangfuli just told him to continue to choose ordinary keys.At the same time, he will declare to others that he intends to choose the golden key.Next, he doesn't need to cooperate with acting, just keep this secret.

Although Ye Shuo didn't understand what he meant, but since Huangfuli said that there is a way to get five common keys together, he believed it for a while.So this round, he got into the room early and stayed there until the time was up.It is to prevent him from showing his flaws when others ask him.

Huangfuli explained indifferently: "At the beginning, I told them that there is already a golden key and an ordinary key. Three people choose two keys, and the minority will win, that is, everyone has a 1/3 probability of winning. Just go to gamble If you take a gamble, it’s not that there is no hope of qualifying.”

"However, it is because none of them are willing to take the risk to gamble. At this time, if one person proposes, I will choose the ordinary key—"

On the side, Tantai Jing nodded in cooperation. From the very beginning, he was also a part of the plan.

"When the distribution of keys on the field becomes two ordinary keys and one golden key, it means that no matter which side you choose, you have no hope of winning. Unless they are willing to cooperate and one person chooses the ordinary key, The other person chooses the golden key, which at least keeps one side from winning.

However, the two of them will never cooperate, and neither of them will be willing to make sacrifices to choose ordinary keys. "

"In the end, they will have repeated suspicions. Especially in the final round, for the sake of prudence, to ensure that five golden keys will not appear, they will definitely choose ordinary keys to guarantee the bottom line. But I didn't expect that they are really better than me. Even imagined, there is still a lack of adventurous spirit."

In this way, the checkpoint with two keys was passed with the result of "all members win".

The iron door opened, and the next room that appeared was a spacious hall that was almost identical to the second floor.Here, there are still five separate rooms.The bulletin board on the wall displays the rules of this level.

The third level is called "Guess the Number". Here, everyone has been assigned a three-digit number. The condition for passing the level is to enter the correct number representing themselves at the button of the gate.

Later, each person chooses a room to enter.After confirming the palm print in the room, you will get a piece of paper.The pieces of paper will list in detail the numbers corresponding to the other four people besides myself.The numbers are assigned randomly, which means that even if you know the other four numbers, it is impossible to guess your own number based on them.

The paper can only be viewed in the room, and cannot be photographed or taken out of the room.After the review, there will be a period of free discussion for everyone.But during this period, they can only talk in pairs, not in groups.

Finally, five people need to enter five sets of numbers in front of the gate, and the gate will open unconditionally. Students who enter the correct number can get points rewards.If one or more people fail the challenge, the points they did not get will be equally distributed to other students.

"In this case, as long as we all tell others the numbers!" Ye Shuo quickly came up with a countermeasure, "This level is really easy, let us work together like the previous level, and win together Bar!"

Everyone raised their foreheads secretly, even now, they can still keep saying "unity and cooperation". Is this pure or stupid?
To be honest, the rules of this level are really quite insidious.

The paper can only be viewed in the room, and cannot be photographed or taken out, which means that the only ones who see the paper are themselves.Even though they can communicate with each other, they have no way to judge the authenticity of the numbers reported by others.

The same is true for the two-two dialogue afterwards. If there is a third person present, assuming that there are three people, A, B, and C, A asks B for his own number. Among them, both B and C have clearly seen A’s number. If B’s answer If there is something false, A will have the opportunity to see the flaw by observing the change of C's expression.

In another situation, if A and C have a good relationship, then B will have some concerns before speaking, whether he will be exposed by C directly if he makes a false report.Then, he is likely to give up this meaningless lie.

But with the current arrangement, everyone can only communicate in pairs, that is to say, they are completely unable to judge the authenticity of each other's words.Taking a step back, even if you can see that the other party is lying, there is still nothing you can do about him.Because with the existing information, you can't guess your own number.

If the five of them can really unite and cooperate, it will certainly not be difficult to pass this level.But under the selfish desire of everyone to get more points, they will inevitably betray each other and suspect each other. This is what the mentors most want to see.Even when they designed this level, they had concluded that there must be many groups, and all the five numbers entered were wrong.

"I agree with Ye Shuo's idea." After quickly calculating the pros and cons, Li Yue said softly, "In this test, if we don't cooperate with other people, we have no way of knowing our own numbers. Even if we can cheat Others, let them not get points, but in the end we also can't get it. It's better to win together than to lose together!"

"Yes, I also agree this time." Liang Xia also nodded quickly, "Actually, the feeling of win-win in the last level is quite good, so I am willing to assist!"

Ye Shuo looked at them moved.Sure enough, as long as you are willing to work hard, you can put down your selfishness and fight side by side!By the way, he glanced at Huangfuli and Tantaijing who had never made a statement, and gave them a displeased look.

Since they are not willing to cooperate, then he is not reluctant.Anyway, I have already made an agreement with the other two, when the time comes, at least make sure that all three of them can qualify!
After the plan was made, everyone entered the room.

In front of him was a strange looking machine. After Ye Shuo confirmed the palm print, a piece of paper quickly popped out from the groove on the top.At the same time, there is a reminder on the top of the machine. After checking and memorizing it, please insert the piece of paper into the socket below to reopen the door.

Is this to prevent us from taking the paper out of the room?Ye Shuo observed the machine a few times, but didn't think much about it.Anyway, now that there is a certain way to win, there is no need to think about those cheating ideas.

On the piece of paper, four sets of numbers are clearly listed.

1. Li Yue (256)

2. Liang Xia (269)

3. Huangfuli (286)

5. Tantai Jing (307)

Sure enough, but there is no own number.

From these figures, it is true that no pattern can be found.Ye Shuo stared at the piece of paper, and after silently memorizing it, followed the prompt, inserted it into the groove at the bottom, and left the room.

The first person to talk to him was Huangfuli.

"Didn't you say the figures are public? Tell me."

Ye Shuo was angry when he saw him take it for granted.He was the one who refused to participate in the plan before, so why should he enjoy the benefits of the plan now?What's more, he is still a member of Xueyuntang, and he also had a part in killing Wen Cheng and Yan Ziyi before... Ye Shuo has not yet swallowed this breath.

"Your number... is 272." Ye Shuo replied.But maybe because he really can't lie, he always felt that his tone was slightly out of shape.

Huangfuli looked at him silently, and Ye Shuo forced himself to look back calmly.

"What's Li Yue's number?" Unexpectedly, Huangfuli actually asked this irrelevant topic.

"256." The other party can also see Li Yue's number, so it's useless to lie here.

Huangfu Li spoke faster: "What's Liang Xia's number?"

"269."

"What's my number then?"

Out of inertia, Ye Shuo blurted out: "280..."

Halfway through the conversation, he abruptly stopped the car.

It's a trap!First throw two simple questions, and then use my inertial thinking, this guy is too dark...!
"Why, didn't I already tell you that it's 272?" Ye Shuo became a little annoyed, and this anger was deliberately amplified by him, "You don't believe me?"

Huangfuli was silent for a while, then replied lightly: "No, thank you very much."

"Then, where's my number?" Although Ye Shuo was asking, he didn't expect to get a correct answer from him at all.

"302. Believe it or not." After Huangfu Li answered briefly, he bypassed him and continued to chat with other people.

302?Ye Shuo snorted coldly, just hearing this number, he knew he was lying to himself.

Although there is indeed no pattern between these numbers, they still show an increasing trend overall, and there is also a difference of 10 to 20 between the previous number and the next one.Now Tantaijing's number is 307, how could his own number be so close to his?
