Forty minutes after the game started, in the desert.
"Brother Jue, I wanted to ask you ten minutes ago..." Xiao Tan sat on the passenger seat of Feng Bujue's car, wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked, "Where are we going? Why don't we go towards King Kakalu and the others are heading in the direction they came from?"
"I don't know where this is, but according to the calculation results of [Forecasting Things Like a God], if we go in this direction, we should be able to encounter the thing that has the greatest chance of killing us on this planet." Feng Bujue replied.
"Oh... so what you just counted is... eh?" Xiao Tan answered halfway through the conversation, suddenly feeling wrong, "Hey! Why did you go in the most dangerous direction on purpose?" He shouted loudly, "Since To calculate...why not 'Where are the members of the enemy team'... but 'Which way to go to meet the strongest enemy'?"
"Idiot, of course it's because the current algorithm can get more information." Before Brother Jue could reply, Xiao Ling who was riding on the motorcycle at the side and rear interrupted first.
"That's right." Feng Bujue responded, and turned his head to explain to Xiao Tan, "If I calculate 'where are the members of the enemy team', then the only information I can get is the location of the members of the enemy team. But... If it is counted as 'Which way to go to meet the strongest enemy', I can know many other things..." He paused, and said in detail, "I watched some game videos of the second team of Corpse Knife yesterday , I have roughly understood the specialization and fighting style of several of their members, but... that's all; they didn't encounter any strong teams in the preliminaries, and most of the games were crushing victories. Simply put... only Based on the video of the preliminaries, it is impossible to see the 'limit' of this team."
"Uh... so..." Xiao Tan continued, "Does this have something to do with what you just calculated?"
"I'm going to get there soon, don't worry." Feng Bujue continued, "Let's talk about the situation in this script... There is actually a reason why I fought with Kakalu for so long just now. I deliberately didn't Go all out. It is to test Kakalu's combat effectiveness; through the observation of this 'Miscellaneous Soldier Leader', I roughly calculated how powerful the **oss is in this script."
When Brother Jue said this, Xiaotan became even more confused. He almost blurted out and asked, "Can't you see through the data? Is it necessary to confirm through fighting?"
Fortunately... Xiao Tan didn't say this, because he realized something in time...
In the next second, Wang Tanzhi's eyes on Feng Bujue changed, and the latter immediately responded with an imperceptible subtle expression.
If the tacit understanding between Jue Ge and Ruo Yu is a tacit understanding, then the tacit understanding between Jue Ge and Xiaotan is simply a heart.
They seem to be able to communicate countless things in just a split second of communication.
Right now, Xiao Tan instantly understood—Brother Jue. It's acting, and... needs his cooperation.
"The conclusion is that...it's about the same level as npcs of the time official and jury." Half a second later, Feng Bujue continued what he had just said, and in the eyes of others, there was no stagnation or strangeness at all, "Then...let's go back now As for the question you raised—why do we count 'the thing that has the best chance of killing us'? Because in this way... we can infer the battle of the Corpse Knife Team 2 based on who the enemy is in front of us. The force is 'capped'."
"Hmm..." Xiao Tan responded, and said thoughtfully, "Then what if... we meet the boss of the script, and then we are beaten to pieces or even wiped out?"
"Ha!" Feng Bujue laughed, "How is that possible?" He tilted his head, "If we encounter an NPC, we can definitely try to negotiate with him/her/it. It is best to take advantage of it , if it doesn't work... we will run away with all our strength, how much loss can we have?"
At this time, Xiao Ling on the side took over and said: "And if we meet the four members of the Corpse Knife Team 2 in a while, it proves... At least under the system's measurement standard, their strength is stronger than this The strongest npc on the planet is even stronger."
"Oh~ I understand after you explain it this way..." Xiaotan pretended to read, "If we meet an npc, we will have a chance to take advantage of the situation, and even if we fail, there is no loss. And if we meet an enemy team... From the results Look, it's the same as calculating 'Where are the members of the enemy team'." He touched his chin, shaking his head and said, "But no matter what kind of situation it is... we can pass the condition of 'best chance to kill us' , to speculate on the upper limit of the strength of the Corpse Knife Second Squad."
"Very good, children can be taught." Feng Bujue freed up a song, and stroked Xiao Tan's hair.
"Go, go, don't come here." Xiaotan pushed away Brother Jue's hand, and re-styled his hair.
"But... to be fair..." At this moment, Feng Bujue suddenly changed the subject again, "Personally, I would rather meet the Corpse Knife Second Squad than some npc..."
"Oh? Why?" Xiaotan continued.
"Hmph..." Feng Bujue sneered, "I didn't expect too much from the strength of the Corpse Knife gang..." He licked his lips, "Right now...if the system judges their strength, even a jury or Shi Guan is not as good as... that's too boring."
Yes...he said it.
In front of countless audiences, with a loud voice and arrogant expression... he said these words without any scruples.
No matter what the reputation of the corpse knife in the industry is, in the eyes of those who don't have a deep understanding of the professional game circle, the corpse knife is still a well-known game studio.
However, Feng Bujue, a casual player, actually said this in such a tone openly, as if Shidao was not on the same level as other first-line studios at all, and he didn't take it seriously at all.
This kind of behavior... undoubtedly made the vast majority of the audience stunned.
"Hey... this guy really dares to say..."
"I've never seen such arrogance..."
"I just cut over and took a look. It only took less than half a minute for the team to clean up the miscellaneous soldiers. He was ashamed to say after fighting for a long time..."
"However, he said he was testing the strength of the NPC, could it be that he deliberately released water?"
"I think it's possible. Don't forget, he was fighting alone from the beginning to the end, and his three teammates didn't help, but four people fought together on the corpse knife."
"That's right. Although it took him a long time, he seemed to be able to handle it with ease from the beginning to the end."
"Come on... I think he is just pretending to be aggressive. If he really wants to meet a professional player of the corpse knife, he will be dropped in seconds."
For a while, audiences on various platforms started a heated discussion on Jue Ge's extremely controversial remarks, but the opinions were divided and they couldn't agree on what to do.
And all of this... was in Feng Bujue's calculations.
Unknowingly, people have put the focus of discussion on Jue Ge's crazy words that have no real meaning, and the part of his communication with Xiao Tan and Xiao Ling before... seems to be so logical taken as fact...
...
At the same time, the second team of Corpse Knife...
The four members of Corpse Knife rode the snatched locomotive and quickly moved towards the direction where the npcs appeared. After about twenty minutes. Then they saw a city built in the desert.
The fortress is oval in shape as a whole and covers a huge area, like a small desert city.
The outer wall of the fortress is composed of stone, sand and metal. Almost from the day it was completed, it has never stopped repairing... From a distance, it can be clearly seen that the color of the wall is different. The degree of wear and tear of various building materials is also different.
This phenomenon... is mainly caused by the uninterrupted "acid rain" in all seasons. Of course, there are also many complicated reasons such as cutting corners and external damage.
"Captain, the rabbit on the watchtower seems to have spotted us." When we were still quite a distance away from the fortress. The deputy captain [Water Show Assault] opened his mouth and said something to [Sanyu Assault].
As a player who is good at shooting specialization, Shui Shi's eyesight for attacking is naturally not bad. At this moment, he saw at a glance a Rabbitman on the watchtower on the side of the city, pointing at them, and signaling to other rabbits.
"It doesn't matter. Anyway, sooner or later he will be discovered." Sanyu replied forcefully.
What he said made sense. There were several watchtowers on the outer wall of the fortress, and on each tower there was a Rabbitman watching; in the desert without any shelter, he wanted to approach the fortress quietly. Either wait until nighttime...or dive under the sand and crawl through...
Right now, these two plans are obviously unrealistic... because the former needs to wait for an unknown time (they don't know how long the daytime of Tutu Star will last), and the latter takes a long time. And it would waste a lot of stamina (they'd already lost extra stamina to the heat even if they weren't burying themselves in the sand), so... might as well just drive there.
"I reckon..." Shui Shi rushed forward, "When we get to the city, there will probably be another battle waiting for us."
"Not necessarily..." At this time, [Rebirth as King], who was in charge of making plans, said aside, "According to the general rules of the end-time script, population gathering places like this can be roughly divided into two types... One is 'refuge So' type, this type of stronghold generally has a 'government'-like organization, and a team of local armed forces responsible for maintaining law and order and resisting foreign enemies." He paused, "The second is the 'cottage' type, this type It's easier to understand... usually ruled by one or a few people with the most powerful force, and the people in the city are either thugs or slaves." Although he was analyzing the problem, his tone was still "dead knife style" , with a rather dull feeling, "If it's a shelter, their defense forces might block us at the door for some negotiation; but if it's a cottage, then there's no need to talk about it... The Jiujiuqi group we killed just now is probably 10% It was their men, who must have recognized the locomotive we were riding, and were about to charge out and attack us."
"No matter how you look at it, the second possibility is more likely." [Reborn as King] turned his head and responded, "Jiu Jiuqi and the others appeared from this direction, and they made it clear that they were here to catch slaves of."
"You're right, but... the possibility of a 'refuge' cannot be ruled out." The reborn king replied, "You know... some 'refuge'-type gathering places may also be the same as the 'cottage', or even better. It's a dirty business, but their political system is more advanced." He explained, "You have to understand ... a 'minority ruling group', 'a large number of ordinary people who are exploited', and a 'few most The social system composed of the three classes of inferior slaves is far more stable than the system in which only slaves and thugs exist."
"Huh..." At this time, Sanyu Qiangxi snorted, and continued, "I hope we can meet the 'cottage'." He said in a deep voice, "As long as the fist is big enough, an idiot can also be king... But a stable 'shelter' can only be built by people with real brains and strength."
Reborn as a king took this very seriously, and he took the opportunity to continue: "The captain is right, if Jiujiuqi is a member of this cottage, or even the boss, then we can breathe a sigh of relief. But... if Jiujiuqi is just a It’s not good to be a straggler who catches slaves everywhere in exchange for reward... because he is just an insignificant role compared to the big fish who rule the city.”
The four of them were talking and analyzing the situation, and before they knew it, they had arrived under the outer wall of the city.
When they got closer, they realized that the height of the wall was more than fifteen meters...
Buildings like this built in barren areas are easily "underestimated" because of the single surrounding scenery. When people visit the city in person, they often realize that the actual size of this building is much larger than when viewed from a distance. .
"Stand still! Don't move!"
When the Corpse Knife guys came to the city wall, five or six rabbit heads protruded from the edge of the wall, one of them was in charge of shouting, and the others held weapons that looked like crossbow bolts and aimed at the four people under the city wall.
"We have no malicious intentions, please don't attack us." On the side of the corpse knife, the person in charge of negotiating is Reborn King, "We are just looking for someone..."
"Shut up! Earthlings!" the Rabbit Man on the city wall interrupted the reborn king, and asked sharply, "Quickly tell me... where did you get your locomotive?"
After a brief hesitation, the reborn king replied truthfully: "We...we were attacked by a Rabbit man who claimed to be 'King Jiujiuqi'..." As he spoke, he still didn't forget to turn his head to look at his teammates and ask them to do something. Be ready for battle, just in case, "...in self-defense, we defeated him and his men and rode their locomotives..."(..)
