Chapter 16: The game suddenly changes, three into two
On the other hand, the game has entered the white heat, and there are only three teams left on the field. They are the fifteenth Baijiali team, the No. 1 Ivy Bi team, and the twenty-first Jakes team.
Their scores remained at 16.
However, after the next level, the scene will become extremely exciting. Because once you pass the seventeenth level, each team will have one "yes" and "no" vote in each game in the next level.
As the name suggests, the "negative" ticket is to deny the answers of others, of course, you can also deny your own answers, but no one will be stupid enough to "commit suicide".
The "yes" vote, also known as the "help" vote, can play a key role in the tiebreaker. For example, at level 20, if you don't answer correctly, but you have a 'yes' vote, you will win, provided your opponent doesn't have a 'yes' vote.
The rules of the competition are set in this way, on the one hand, in order to enhance the effect of the program, and on the other hand, it is also convenient to determine the winner.
The teams that can make it to the seventeenth level are all knowledgeable and intelligent, and if they don't let them attack each other, I'm afraid that in the end, multiple teams will come first.
You can't keep asking questions, right? This is what the organizers don't want to see.
- I want them to fight each other.
Ding - The seventeenth level is over.
In the exclamation of everyone, the three teams successfully entered the next level. All the spectators were boiling, they hadn't seen more than two teams enter the "fight" round in many years.
In previous years, it was always the Jacks team who dominated the group, finishing the game in 12 innings with the fastest record. Because the twelfth game is a watershed, in the future levels, the organizers will ask each team to write detailed answers.
It's not just a matter of picking an answer. Once the answer is not fully written or there is a serious bias, it is all out of the game.
However, this year, there are three strong teams.
Most of the audience is still bullish on Jakes because the absolute strength is there. But the strength of the other two teams is not weak, and they also have a lot of cheers.
After all, they all made bets. How long these two dark horses can hold out will determine the size of their wallets.
Jakes' back was wet and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and he didn't have time to wipe the sweat before he began to think about the next topic. He was the only one who wrote the whole process, and the other three people just wanted to help, but they couldn't help.
They had never seen Jax struggle so hard, and he used to write answers with ease, without any effort. But now there are two strong opponents, and if the answers he writes are not detailed enough, or if they are not sufficient, they may be compared to others!
However, the other two teams also scratched their ears and cheeks, desperately trying to write the answers.
In particular, Bajali and Zoe are the team's answerers, and most of the questions are completed by the two of them. With a super memory, the answers written are almost exactly the same as those in the book.
The most idle in the competition team is Shenjie and Ai Weibi, the latter can still answer one or two questions, but the former does not participate in any of them, and the full name is in a daze with his chin propped up.
The three around Avril were the smartest guards of the Red Flame Regiment, and with them, she really couldn't imagine what it would be like to "lose".
Ding-bell ringing.
End of level 18. The font of the background cloth suddenly appeared: "Please stop answering the questions, please put away the team answers." Now it's 'Offense and Defense' time, so teams are invited to start using their 'yes' and 'no' votes for 10 seconds. At the same time, the host explained passionately on the side. It's just that he is facing the audience outside the stadium, and the participating teams in the stadium still can't hear a sound.
Ten seconds is not a long time, and it may only be a few breaths for the audience, but for the team in the arena, it is like a year.
Due to the inability to communicate, it is difficult for the team to reach a consensus.
Generally speaking, the best team will be eliminated first. But for now, all three teams are evenly matched, so it's hard to decide.
Ten seconds is up!
Three team numbers appear on the background cloth, next to the number of attacks received.
No. 1, 1.
No. 15, 1.
No. 21, 1.
The crowd was in an uproar.
Including the teams in the field, they didn't expect such a small probability event to appear!
Because each team had a 'yes' vote, no team withdrew from this game.
However, just as the nineteenth hurdle was about to begin, the match went wrong – No. 21 Jakes fainted due to exhaustion.
After some rescue, Jakes woke up and was still unable to continue the game, so he was carried off the field.
After Jakes went down, his teammates also voluntarily gave up the game.
Such a change caused the audience to sigh.
Obviously, the most favored championship team ended hastily because of Jack's departure, this kind of ending made those who made bets a little unacceptable, and the scene was noisy for a while, and even some of them were angry with Jacks and were ready to settle accounts with him.
With his strong ability to control the scene, the host quickly restored order to the scene.
"It's a shame that our young athlete Jakes left this competition, but at the age of fifteen, he has been able to hold on to this point, sparing every last ounce of energy, even if it puts his life at risk – isn't this rare spirit worthy of our applause?"
As soon as the host's voice fell, many people suddenly woke up. They were too optimistic about Jakes and ignored his age.
He's only fifteen!
Think about what you were doing when you were fifteen, and what else could you do other than mess around at school?
Under the host's emotional speech, everyone applauded Jakes in the audience. This made him embarrassed, and lowered his cap to hide his blushing face.
"It's a shame that Jakes is gone, but our two teams got to the match point with extraordinary intelligence and stamina. Their strength should not be underestimated, who will kill the deer? Who will have the last laugh? Who will win the prize? The answers to these questions will be revealed soon, let us wait and see!"
The long-awaited twentieth level has finally officially begun.
