In the copy of "Colosseum" where Chang Xu and others were, Goat announced new rules.
Outside of the fighting game, although players in different teams still cannot attack each other, players in the same team are no longer restricted.
His plan is obvious. He obviously wants to force players to kill each other and obtain enough food by killing their companions.
"The food you deserve has been placed in your respective rooms. I hope you enjoy your meal!" After the goat said the same farewell words as on the first day, the animals gathered in groups like a tide. Walk out of the Colosseum together.
The players stood on the high platform and were not in a hurry to go back to the room. Instead, they discussed each other word by word.
"What do you mean by that goat?" Lin Ye was the first to speak, "Seeing that there are not enough personnel today, so you want us to kill teammates?"
"No, killing teammates is not the purpose." Chu Xun shook his head, "Everyone should Remember the rule that 'Teammates cannot lend points to each other'. Only when anyone in the team dies will the total points of the team be added to the surviving person.
"Three thousand are needed to fulfill the wish. points, and among our six teams, except for the bottom team of Qisi and Nianfu, and the team of Dong Xiwen and Lena Ana who just spent their points to buy food, the other teams' total points have reached more than 3,000. ”
He paused deliberately. After the other players digested the information in his words, they suddenly understood something.
Previously, Chu Xun proposed to auction the excess food, which was to calculate the points ranking. The second team, Dong Xiwen, will spend points to take photos of the food.
Regardless of whether Dong Xiwen was coerced in helping Qisi in the first place, he needs to be weakened first to avoid long nights and nightmares.
In this way, all the forces on the Qis side were suppressed below the three thousand baseline that can realize wishes, and they were completely trapped in the passive state of life and death.
This is a conspiracy. As long as Dong Xiwen's team ranks second in total points, it is impossible not to fall into the trap.
Chu Xun smiled and continued: "The goat hopes that we can accumulate points by killing each other and realize our wishes. But most of our wishes are outside the weird game and in reality, so what does it have to do with him? What about the relationship?
“The only wish in the dungeon is probably to ‘kill Zeiss’. I might as well guess that because Zeiss lifted the curse of the ratmen, he was afraid that Zeiss would incite the ratmen against him, so he wanted Zeiss to really die. ”
Lenaan touched his chin and sighed: "Then can I understand that the goat, as an NPC, has the same position as ours on the matter of killing Qis? If this is the case, then Qis is too miserable. ."
No one responded to his compassion.
Although he has previously stated that he is not the same person as Qisi, players are still more willing to regard him as an ally of Qisi who is similar to Dong Xiwen.
Firstly, it is always right to be cautious; secondly, in a zero-sum game, someone must bear negative returns so that the interests of others can be guaranteed.
Green thought: "How should we kill Zeiss? He is a ghost who cannot die even if he is stabbed. He will not be judged dead even if the blood dries up. He may still have a chance to be resurrected. ”
"Well... I think the priority of the Sphinx's wish-fulfillment mechanism may be much higher than imagined." Lenaan reminded in a low voice, but still no one paid him any attention.
Liu Yuhan had been squatting beside him just now, holding a roll of bandages to help Chang Xu bandage his wounds. At this moment, he suddenly put down the bandages in his hands and walked towards the gathered players.
She opened the notebook in her arms to one page and showed it to all the players: "This is my skill [Ghost Story Notes], which can deduce the answers to puzzles within the scope of the instance. Not long ago It told me: [If you want to kill Zeiss, you can only make a wish to the Sphinx]"
The black writing on the yellowed page is clear, and the route through the customs is clear. It is very different from what the players had previously inferred, that is, using the Sphinx's wish-fulfilling mechanism, three thousand points are exchanged for Zeiss's true death.
Lin Ye looked at Chang Xu who was sitting on the ground not far away: "Among us, Chang Xu is the only one who desires to 'kill Qisi', right? Can't we just lend him a few points and be done with it?"
He looked at Chu Xun and then at Green: "Both of you have more than three thousand points, one has six hundred and one more points, and the other has three hundred more. It's useless to have so many points anyway, borrow them Give it to Chang Xu.”
“Not enough.” Chu Xun smiled bitterly and shook his head, “Chang Xu’s current points are only 1,500. Even if you add 901, it’s not enough.”
Green also sneered at Lin Ye: "I remember you borrowed points from Chang Xu, right? You can always return them to him now, right?"
Players have selfish motives. After the effect, lending points for peace has become a fantasy.
Whether it is to fulfill their wishes or to stay high in the rankings, each team must ensure that they accumulate as many points as possible.
Nian Fu stood aside with his hands down, idly observing the discussions among the players.
Qisi cannot be judged as dead, and the resources she carries will naturally not be transferred to her.
She now only has 100 points, one piece of food and three game coins. Even if she uses all the game coins, she still can't get 3,000 points.
In other words, the mechanism of this copy is unfair.
On the first day, those who participated in the game as "old players" had to spend points to acquire "new players" as teammates. No matter how many initial points they had, there was a high probability that they would become scarce after the auction, less than or equal to one thousand.
The points for "new players" are always one thousand.
Three game coins can only provide 1,500 points. No one can collect 3,000 points by conventional means.
Nian Fu understands that it is imperative to raise the butcher knife against his companions, and the animals are happy to see this happen.
The only breaking point - or "variable" - was Ziss who left the field briefly and carried the faith of the rat people.
Let’s see if he can introduce factors other than the rules to break this unfair set of rules.
Therefore, after other players got into trouble, Nian Fu watched the fun with peace of mind, and even breathed a sigh of relief——
"That person" was right, the balance of victory was leaning towards her side.
It seems that Qisi really has a lot of backup plans, and the current level of competition between players may be something he expected.
“Let’s not make a decision in a hurry today.” Chu Xun raised his hand slightly, attracting all the players to look at him, “The more anxious you are, the easier it is to make mistakes. Except for Chang Xu and Lin Ye, none of us have Injured, their wounds are not fatal in a short period of time. We have not yet reached the point where we have to make a choice to leave the dungeon as soon as possible.”
