As soon as the Wood Protector said this, the Mentor's face suddenly stiffened.

At the moment, he could only continue to nod and smile: "This ...... We have also been stamped and registered in the local government's office, and it is definitely ...... Audited ......"

The Wood Protector waved his hand disdainfully: "Don't be sloppy with me here." The coat of arms of the Tiangong Gate, I'm afraid the local government can't distinguish it at all, right?"

"Old man Crane, don't laugh either," noticing that Elder Crane on the side was snickering, and the wooden protector was even more arrogant, "It's your Tianxiao Pavilion, and you haven't seen the Tiangong Gate coat of arms a few times, right?"

Such a statement is naturally ironic about Tianxiao Pavilion, which is no heavier than the Nine Shadows Hall by the Heavenly Palace Gate.

"But I dare to say that the matter of the master of the Heavenly Palace will never be hidden from our hall master!" When he said this, the tone of the Mu Protector carried a sense of superiority. It's like the one who is so much appreciated, it's himself.

Elder Crane had a gloomy face, and the sparks in his eyes jumped a few times, and he suppressed them well. His lips twitched, and he turned to a stiff smile: "Wood Protector, your hall is mainly here, I'm afraid you won't be allowed to call the honorific title of 'that adult' like this, right?"

Stroking his long white beard, Elder Crane shook his head and sighed, "It is the rule set by your Nine Shadows Palace, and your subordinates have to take the lead in abiding by it, otherwise, how can you obey the public?"

Tianxiao Pavilion and the Nine Shadows Hall have not been in harmony for a long time, and every time the members of the two major forces meet in the outside world, there will definitely be a-for-tat confrontation, and they all want to step on each other's heads. Even this joint review has once again become their battlefield.

The two of them did not give in to each other, but on the mentor's side, neither party could afford to offend, so he could only step forward and bow down and smile: "Two envoys, it has been hard to come from afar, now let's watch the children's game first." When this side is over, I have already made a special trip to put on the wine and food, just waiting for the two of you to enjoy the face!"

Elder Crane and Wood Protector glanced at the mentor, and when they looked at each other again, they already smiled tacitly.

These tasks of inspecting the subordinates have always been quite lucrative. As long as a few sentences are put on a score with both soft and hard methods, the lower-level forces will definitely be busy offering a large amount of money and silver, and ask the envoy to "say a few good words on his behalf". Compared with this real benefit, fighting with the other party's forces is not in a hurry.

Looking at the atmosphere that had been reconciled again, the tutor secretly breathed a sigh of relief, so the three of them, who were "not in harmony with their faces and hearts", once again turned their eyes to the big screen in front of them.

On the many small windows that were separated above, one of the corners was showing the figures of Ye Shuo and others.

In the first level, they found a large number of puzzle pieces from all corners of the room, and successfully put them together to get the pass. Now, they've reached the second level.

It's a big space, and it's more of an empty hall than a room. There was a dim candle flame burning in the corner, and in front of them were five doors side by side. From the looks alone, there is almost no difference.

Far away from the hall, there is a heavy iron door. There is a golden keyhole in the iron door, and not far from the lower end, there are five other ordinary keyholes. Looks like that's the exit to the next level.

According to the rules scrolling on the bulletin board, this level requires them to choose a room to enter, and there are two keys in the room, one is a golden key and the other is a normal key. Everyone chooses a key, they must choose, and only one can be chosen. The room is completely enclosed, and in the process, no one can know what other people choose.

Once you've made your selection, you'll head back to the lobby. If all five people choose the normal key, each person will receive an equal distribution of points, and they can immediately open the iron door and move on to the next level.

It is worth noting that the role of the normal key is limited to working with the other four ordinary keys to open the iron door. As long as any key is missing, the person who takes the ordinary key is equivalent to taking a handful of scrap metal.

And if you choose the Golden Key, you can open a treasure chest in the room and get a certain amount of points. Correspondingly, it means that he has betrayed his companions.

If only one person chooses the Golden Key, they will receive full points and will be able to open the Iron Gate through the Golden Key and clear the level directly.

If more than one person chooses the Golden Key, they can be rewarded with another bonus after receiving the points in the chest. As for those who choose ordinary keys, they still have nothing.

And most importantly, if all five people choose the Golden Key, the room will be directly sealed. Represents their failure in the challenge and must stay here until the end of the game.

Choose to run a total of five rounds, with a quarter of an hour break between each round. At the end of all five rounds, the iron door opens unconditionally. In other words, as long as there are no five golden keys, this is a level that has no difficulty and just allows everyone to earn points.

"Then, let's all take the ordinary key!" After reading the rules, Ye Shuo excitedly proposed to everyone.

"I know you're still worried about betrayal, but we're already companions, as long as we promise each other, we won't betray, right?"

At his instigation, everyone looked at each other and nodded: "Okay, just take the ordinary key!"

Soon, the first round of the game officially began.

Ye Shuo casually chose a room. When he entered, the door closed automatically.

It's quite narrow, and the treasure chests stacked on all sides make the only remaining foothold even more limited.

In the middle are two enclosed glass cases, one inside which are a golden key, and one in which is a normal key. In front of the glass case, there is an imprint of a palm. It seems that they were asked to attach their palms to open the glass case.

The palm print of the same person can only open one glass case per round. This is also to prevent them from trying to get two keys and take them out of the room at the same time.

Ye Shuo looked at the two keys in front of him. Although according to the rules, the person who takes the ordinary key has almost no benefit, but takes the golden key, as long as he does not encounter the worst situation, he can get considerable points in each round, and even have a chance to win directly, but since he has agreed with everyone, he will choose to keep his promise. And, he believes, others will do the same.

Raising his palm, he did not hesitate to stick it to the palm print on the right side. After a slight sound, the upper layer of the glass cabinet automatically opened, and Ye Shuo also took out the ordinary key from it.

Back in the hall again, everyone else walked out one after another. Ye Shuo nodded at them excitedly, and raised the ordinary key in his hand and waved. To his disappointment, others did not respond.

Do they ...... A shadow passed through Ye Shuo's heart. Then he shook his head vigorously, no, impossible, because everyone had already said it before!

After everyone walked out of the room, the results were announced on the bulletin board.

Li Yue, Kim.

Seeing the first line of text, Ye Shuo glared at Li Yue in disbelief. How could this be, did she choose to betray?

In Li Yue's eyes, there was no fluctuation. On the contrary, Liang Xia on the side looked relieved.

Then, the second and third lines of text emerged, and Ye Shuo's eyes widened.

Liang Xia, Jin.

Huangfu leaves, Kim.

Ye Shuo, Pu.

澹台璟, gold.

In the end, he was the only one who kept his promise and chose an ordinary key?!

"You ......" Ye Shuo kept shaking his head. It's rare to have such a game that doesn't involve life and death, why do they still choose to betray?

"Don't look at us like that!" Finally, Liang Xia roared, "Yes, I chose the golden key, but even without me, there are a few of them, and five ordinary keys are always not enough! To put it bluntly, you were too idealistic from the beginning!"

"That's right, anyway, there are still four rounds of time," Li Yue also spoke, "This is the level to earn points, why don't you earn enough money before leaving?

"But...... But you promised!" Ye Shuo opened his mouth and turned to Huangfu Li in anger, "Didn't you also promise?"

"Just because I know that they all have this kind of mind, it is simply impossible to unify ordinary keys in the first round. Huang Fuli's expression did not change, "In that case, it is better to take the points first." Beside him, Taijing also nodded in agreement.

In the second round, the result was the same. Ye Shuo was the only one who chose an ordinary key, and Liang Xia even patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Thanks to you, you help us guarantee the bottom every time, and we will choose ordinary keys in the next few rounds!"

Ye Shuo's heart was full of grievances. Like them...... Thinking about their own interests all the time, even if it comes to the last round, can they really honestly choose the ordinary key? When the time comes, the iron door will open unconditionally, and they can really give up the last chance to earn points?

If you don't choose an ordinary key, it is very likely that the worst-case scenario of five golden keys will directly occur! But if you really guarantee it all the way, in the end, everyone else has earned a lot of points, and he can't get anything! Although he is not rare at all, but ...... Why?

In the third round, before they entered the room, the bulletin board lit up again, and the rules had changed.

From this round onwards, those who choose the Golden Key will no longer have the privilege of opening treasure chests. In addition, if you choose the gold key and the general key, the side with the smaller number will win and get the point reward.

If only one person chooses the Golden Key, he can still get all the points and clear the level directly. Correspondingly, if there is only one ordinary key, the result is the same.

There is only one condition that is the same as before, that is, once the five golden keys appear, it will be counted as a failure of the challenge.

After the rule change, the break period was temporarily extended. Everyone also began to think urgently about the latest strategy.

After Huang Fuli and Ye Shuo had a short conversation, he walked in front of Liang Xia again.

"This time, Ye Shuo is ready to take the golden key. ”

Liang Xia, who was still full of indifference, suddenly opened his mouth wide when he heard this. His face was full of words: "That Ye Shuo? can he get the golden key? Why?"

Huangfu Li said lightly: "He's not a fool, he knows that you can't take ordinary keys, so it's impossible to suffer dumb losses every time, right?"

"However, according to the rules, at least one person must have a normal key, otherwise the level will fail immediately. Then, he added.

Liang Xia came back to his senses and stammered, "So what......? You don't want me to get the normal key!"

"I know. The emperor didn't change his face, "That's why I'll take the ordinary key." ”

"In this way, there is already a golden key and an ordinary key. It's up to you to choose whichever side you want. In Liang Xia's surprised gaze, Huangfu stood up and left a sentence indifferently.

Half an hour later, Li Yue, Liang Xia, and Taijing gathered together. Obviously, the words of the emperor just now have already been said to them separately.

"If you want to win, you have to choose a few. In other words, there are only 4 cases. Li Yue took a pen and paper and explained to them while writing and drawing.

"One person takes the golden key, four people take the ordinary key, and the one who takes the golden key wins.

Two people take the golden key, three people take the ordinary key, and the one who takes the golden key wins.

Three people take the golden key, two people take the ordinary key, and the one who takes the ordinary key wins.

Four people take the golden key, one person takes the ordinary key, and the one who takes the ordinary key wins. ”

"There are also two cases, all with golden keys, or all with ordinary keys. Taijing added.

"First of all, in order to clear the customs, you must have a normal key. Liang Xia's face was serious.

"Isn't there an ordinary key?" Li Yue shrugged, "The prefect said he would take it." ”

Liang Xia nodded: "Okay, then let's say that there is now an ordinary key and a golden key, which means that the distribution of keys will become like this." As he spoke, he snatched the pen and paper directly from Li Yue's hand and quickly listed the table.

Gold, Phu, Kim, Kim, Gold (P&P wins)

Gold, Phu, Kim, Phu, Kim (P&P key wins)

Kim, Phu, Kim, Kim, Phu (P&P key wins)

Gold, Phu, P, Kim, Gold (P&P wins)

Gold, P, P, P, Gold (Key wins)

Kim, P, P, P, Pg (Golden Key Win)

"Although there are several situations here that are the same, but you have also seen it, the probability of winning by choosing an ordinary key now is 2/3!" Liang Xia looked at his statistics, and was excited for a while.

"Although I always feel that there is something wrong ......with your algorithm," Li Yue held his forehead, and he didn't have the patience to correct him, "However, how can you confirm that the prefect will definitely choose an ordinary key?"

"In this case, who can guarantee that Ye Shuo will definitely choose the golden key?"

Liang Xia knocked on the back of his head and tried to run his thoughts:

"The prefect said that he chose the ordinary key to ensure the bottom, and he knew that in this way, we would definitely choose the golden key with confidence. However, once there are more than two people who choose the golden key, the golden key side loses, but it is safer to choose the ordinary key. What he can think of, others can think of, so there will definitely be people who choose the ordinary key, and in this case, he himself may choose the golden key again......"

"Forget it, if it goes on like this, it's endless. Just when Liang Xia continued to carry out "reverse thinking", Taijing finally listened impatiently and stood up decisively, "I also choose an ordinary key, so it's decided." ”

After he left, only Li Yue and Liang Xia were left looking at each other.
