Chapter 1218: Calculation

Views:

Richard, Jasmine and the others looked at each other.

After looking at each other for a few seconds, Jasmine pursed her lips and said bluntly: "Wizard Richard, originally according to the plan, we were going to continue exploring the ruins. But as you just saw, the stupid giant rat we killed ran all the way. I don’t know how many mechanisms have been activated. If we enter rashly, we are afraid that we will suffer huge losses if we don’t get any valuable items. So, I think this exploration will end here, what do you think?”

Are you giving up exploring because the depths of the ruins are too dangerous? I'm afraid this is just one reason... The other one is that he probably got what he wanted, and there is no point in continuing to explore... Richard's thoughts turned and he didn't say anything. He looked at Jasmine and said without rejection: "Okay."

Hearing Richard's agreement, Jasmine relaxed a little and continued: "In this case, let's fairly distribute the proceeds from the ancient ruins as agreed before."

After speaking, Jasmine glanced at her men. All of her men understood and took out the things they had collected along the way.

Some are rare spell materials, some are broken spell props, some are parts of the body of the guardian creatures in the ruins, and some are scrolls with complex text, etc.

Because the group of people were traveling relatively fast, there were not many things collected, just over twenty items, but together with the things that fell out of the stone pillars, the number was still considerable.

Richard looked at it without saying anything. He also took out a piece of black ore he had collected along the way and a ring that had been embedded in the stone wall.

Looking at Jasmine, Richard asked: "Captain Jasmine, what do you plan to start with?"

"How about this one?" Jasmine asked, holding the stone box containing the energy furnace in her hand.

No surprise really.

Richard smiled slightly: "You want this, right?"

"Of course." Jasmine said calmly, "I have told you more than once that this is our main goal of exploring the ruins. Of course I want it."

"That's a coincidence!" Richard responded, calmly, "I want it too."

As soon as these words came out, Jasmine and the others changed their expressions, and quietly approached each other, becoming a little wary.

The atmosphere in the field was a little more subtle.

Jasmine opened her mouth, took a deep breath, and controlled her emotions before speaking: "Wizard Richard, if you really do this, our cooperation will not be as pleasant as before."

"Then what can we do?" Richard spread his hands, "After all, you and I both have our eyes on one thing. Otherwise, as we agreed before - you divide all the profits from the ruins into two parts, and I Come and choose one?”

"No, I have to get the energy furnace." Jasmine said solemnly. After saying this, she may have felt that it was too unreasonable, so she slowly added, "You can choose an equal amount of things to take away from the remaining income. This is the same It’s fair.”

"It's indeed fair, but you got the first choice...so it's not completely fair." Richard said.

Jasmine: “What exactly do you want to do?”

"Believe me, as I said before, I just want to use the most fair way to determine the ownership of the income." Richard blinked and said, "If you want to get the right of first choice, you If you want to get the energy furnace, well, just try your luck."

As he spoke, Richard smiled and raised his hand.

"Wow!"

The ground beneath his feet collapsed, and the soil and gravel squeezed and solidified against each other. Finally, they turned into a six-sided dice the size of a finger, and a stone cup, which fell into the palm of his hand.

Richard shook the stone cup gently, and the six-sided dice inside made a sound, and said: "This matter can be solved in the simplest way: you shake a point, I shake a point, if you compare mine If the points are high, you have priority and can take away the energy furnace. Otherwise, I will take it."

"What if the points are the same?" Jasmine asked.

"If it's the same, throw it again."

"In this case, I'm afraid the results will never come out, right?" Jasmine said.

Richard immediately understood what Jasmine meant: rolling the dice, if neither of them is prepared to cheat, it would be relatively fair. But as wizards, both of them have the ability to cheat. As long as you want to cheat, it is very likely that you will always roll out the maximum six points.

Richard's eyes flashed, he thought for a while, and then gave a solution: "If you are worried, you can change the method. For example, you can roll the dice alone, and I will guess whether the number of the dice is odd or even. I guess Wrong, the priority is yours, I guessed right, then the priority is mine."

After hearing this, Jasmine fell silent, as if she was seriously thinking about whether the method was feasible.

After more than ten seconds, the wizard Su stepped forward, walked to Jasmine, and whispered in her ear: "Captain, how about I try?"

Jasmine glanced at Xizhe and found that the other party had no reaction. Then she looked at the wizard Su and found that there was no better way than the current solution unless she broke up with Richard and had a big fight.

Taking a deep breath, he agreed, "Okay then."

"Don't worry, captain, I will win." Su said seriously, walked up to Richard and stretched out his hand.

Richard handed the dice and stone cup to the other party's hands.

"Look at it." Su said, shaking the dice.

The dice rotated in the stone cup, but no sound was heard because it was tightly wrapped by a ball of air, preventing it from colliding with the cup and preventing Richard from detecting it from the side.

At the same time, Su recited a spell in his mouth, and a ball of orange light enveloped the stone cup. It was a prophecy spell, used to prevent Richard from using his prophecy ability to cheat.

This is the ultimate in precaution.

However, Richard didn't react much to this. He just looked at the stone cup in Su's hand with his eyes flashing a faint blue light.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

Su kept shaking, then stopped after more than ten seconds, put the stone cup on his palm, covered the dice, looked at Richard and asked in a deep voice: "Odd number? Even number?"

Richard glanced at it and opened his mouth to answer.

"yes… "

"Wait a minute!" Suddenly Jasmine spoke up, interrupting Richard's words.

"What's the problem?" Richard frowned and looked at Jasmine and asked.

"I regretted it," Jasmine replied.

"Huh?" Richard was slightly surprised, "What do you mean?"

"Literally." Jasmine took a deep breath and looked directly at Richard and said, "I don't doubt that the method you proposed is fair, but I always feel that you have the ability to increase your advantages."

"So?" Richard asked, tilting his head slightly.

"So, I want to do the opposite: you roll the dice, and my people will guess whether the points are odd or even. If you guess it right, I will choose the energy furnace first. If you guess it wrong, you will choose the energy furnace first," Jasmine said. Three eyes looked at Richard's two eyes, "Do you agree or not? If you don't agree, I have to doubt that my guess is true."

Richard: "..." fell into silence.

After a moment, he suddenly looked at Jasmine and smiled.

"Okay, as you wish."
