Crazy mentality

Liang Jingmo's reasoning and response are no problem, he took into account most of the situation at the beginning, prepared in advance, and can still control the changing situation in anticipation at this time, this seemingly bold but actually precautionary approach is Liang Jingmo's signature style, Xiang Nanxing asked himself if it was him, it would never be possible to do this.

But even with so many preparations, the predicament at this time is still ruthlessly defeating them. Now they only have a total of three test rights, counting the official input, it can only be regarded as four opportunities for entry at most, and the information they have in hand in addition to the two numbers they have and some position relationships, the situation of the other two numbers needs to be considered for updating.

In the process of Liang Jingmo's narration, Xiang Nanxing has actually gradually calmed down and recovered his ability to think. But after all, the enemy is far away from where they can't see, and it is still too difficult for the strong to piece together the other party's ideas here purely by thinking.

"Or we can start by thinking about where they might change the numbers."

Seeing that he couldn't give an answer for a while, Liang Jingmo continued: "There are two correct numbers in '1234', and my '3' should not have been exposed, and if you change the number to this range, there is a one-third risk of going out." The remaining six numbers are also two numbers, and the risk of going out of the game is only one in five, so if I were to put the new numbers in it. The '5', '6', and '8' are the numbers that are wrong, and I think there is a high chance that the new numbers will fall into them, and if there are no other clues, I can start with them. ”

"That's what I said, but ......," Xiang Nanxing frowned, "No, it's a little strange." ”

"What's wrong? Where is it strange? ”

"Changing the number can be a very safe means of attack, although there is a risk of breaking the rules, but as long as the number of exclusions is determined, you can change it with confidence. After excluding '5', '6', and '8' as we do now, you can change your numbers to two of them...... So why didn't they use up their two chances...... That's right! ”

Xiang Nanxing's eyes suddenly lit up: "I wonder why they didn't use up the two chances!" ”

Liang Jingmo was slightly stunned, and then his eyes lit up.

Indeed, when you think about it, the other party's actions are quite strange. The rules set by Xu Wen are to treat each player as an independent individual, and there is no "camp" setting, so the two limited modification opportunities seem to be the default side at first glance, but in fact, it is entirely possible that one of them will be exclusive. As long as they find more than two wrong numbers, they can completely change both numbers they hold. It doesn't matter how effective it is, at least it doesn't leave any chance for the opponent to counterattack.

Now that the game is on, it's time for the other party to determine two or three wrong numbers.

But why has the radio only been sounded once so far?

"In that case, there are two possibilities." Liang Jingmo muttered, "One is that the two of them are acting separately at this time, and only one of them is in front of modifying the machine, so they can't modify it twice." In this case, the person performing the change is likely to be the 'opossum' Twelve I met on that level at the beginning. Another possibility is that they have only been able to accurately eliminate one wrong number so far, so they only dare to make one change on this basis...... No, it's not. ”

He suddenly realized his fatal mistake: "I thought of them too normally. ”

"Yes, the other party is not the kind of guy who can play cards according to common sense - that's the 'host'." Xiang Nanxing nodded.

Now, he finally caught the strange feeling just now. Yes, Liang Jingmo's reasoning is very correct, but the most critical point is missing, that is, the other party's "personality". Maybe everything he speculates is true for ordinary people, but the host is always able to jump out of the limitations of ordinary people and make surprising moves in some things.

"Don't think about safe numbers, don't think about using up a few test opportunities, and throw away all that common sense about the game." Xiang Nanxing said, "Even if they don't have any information at hand, only the '1A1B' they saw at the beginning, they may still gamble on those uncertain numbers, just to make us feel the current sense of crisis." ”

He closed his eyes and remembered the "lynx" Carla he had just met. Although the other party didn't really act out of line during the whole process, it seemed that he was misled smoothly. But throughout the contact, he always had a faint feeling that there was something crazy hidden under that person. Those emotions were like a volcano ready to erupt, and it only took a little spark to erupt, and he just happened to encounter the period when the volcano was silent.

And that "opossum" Twelve, although he looked like a normal person before, has not been seen since the game started. But judging from Liang Jingmo's description just now, he also seems to have changed as a person after entering the game, full of a strange sense of oppression.

If that's the case, it's not surprising that they're deliberately thrill-seeking in the matter of "modifying the numbers".

"Twelve, I haven't watched it well yet, and I can't speculate on his actions. But I'm willing to bet that if Carla had decided to change the numbers, he'd have done something in the '1234' array. "This array has been tested before, and it's not hard to guess that all of our subsequent tests revolve around that '1A1B'." Once this foundation is shaken, the results of those subsequent tests will need to be reconsidered, and the impact will be significant. ”

"But that's not the biggest reason. On top of that, if you improve the numbers, there's at least a one-in-three chance you'll be out. If he doesn't even ask about the number of his companions and modifies it directly, the chance of being out will even be 1 in 2! "For him, this thrill is the most precious thing in the game." ”

His eyes flickered, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously leaked a smile, as if he was secretly excited about this matter.

Liang Jingmo had palpitations for no reason. His contact with Kara was only for a while, far from familiar, and naturally he had never seen him secretly excited. But Xiang Nanxing's expression at this time was just like the hosts he had seen before, and it was even more seamless on Kara's face.

Many people mistakenly think that the host is an excellent talent who is strong in body and mind, but the top-notch ability is just the appearance. The truth of the matter is that these people are all "deviants" who are incompatible with conventional society in their bones. In order to guess their actions, it is not enough to think carefully, you have to become like them.

Like Xiang Nanxing at this time, take on the role of the other party. Substitution. Feel. Play.

until you are immersed in it.

"Okay, that's enough." Liang Jingmo said, "Now that the range of numbers has been determined, let's hurry up and ...... next."

"No, that's not enough." Xiang Nanxing seemed to be answering him, and he seemed to be talking to himself.

His thoughts sank deeper, and his temperament gradually changed, and he continued to incarnate as the young man with blackened ears.

"If you're just looking for thrills, you're just a madman. The host will keep reason behind the madness, just like your previous seemingly incomprehensible actions, and you can't see the deep meaning until after the fact. ”

"In the choice of numbers, they deliberately look for excitement. But the same thrill can be enjoyed twice. They revised the numbers and left us another chance, and there must be a reason behind it. ”

"I want to know, what do they want?"

Xiang Nanxing closed his eyes, as if he was in a state of flux.

- When you stare into the abyss, the abyss is watching you.

Looking at Xiang Nanxing like this, Liang Jingmo suddenly thought of this sentence for no reason. He heard Qiu Banxia say that when he was on the island at that time, Xiang Nanxing had fought against the current host "Abyss" Xu Wen for the qualification to participate in the "White Night Festival", and his performance was better than that of himself who fought against the same opponent in the main competition later. In that duel, he observed his opponent, constantly speculated about his opponent's mood, and finally entered the opponent's thinking field for a short time, predicting his opponent's intentions.

And now, perhaps even he didn't realize itβ€”he had done the same thing just by thinking about it.

"A normal person would have explored the surroundings like you and me after the start of the game, looking for hidden machines on the floor. In particular, they entered earlier than us, so they should have a big advantage in terms of exploration. However, according to what you said, the first 'opossum' Twelve chose to stay where he was, and Kara, the second to enter, only walked down a level to meet me, and judging by the time, it is possible that he even waited until after me entered to start moving. He muttered to himself, "When he met me, he only tried to use the language, although the effect was actually very sharp, but now I still have a lot of reservations in retrospect." He didn't seem to be trying his best to get any information from me, but rather like he was looking for an opportunity to observe me as a person. ”

"Touching, probing, but actually doing nothing, and only now that the numbers have been changed can it be considered a real 'attack'. But even so, it kept us a chance to fight back, and it was like showing mercy to our men......"

"But what's the point of being merciful in this game?"

He asked himself, then answered himself.

"These behaviors are like handicaps in chess, which do not help to win or lose, only have the opposite effect. The only good thing is that if you win in the case of a handicap, it will be seen by others as a difference in strength more than a normal win......"

When he said this, his face suddenly changed!

On the other side, Liang Jingmo's eyes were also obviously bright. Many things are originally a matter of thought, and they can make sense or not, but it's a matter of changing the angle. At this time, Xiang Nanxing mentioned the key point of "others", and Liang Jingmo also broke through the barrier.

"It's a show of strength." The two spoke in unison.

"That way, most of the things can be explained." Xiang Nanxing opened his eyes, with an irrepressible shock on his face after learning the truth, "Deliberately give up the advantage of entering the market first, and act at the same time or even later with us." Don't make small moves, even if you get the right moment, show that they're better than us. ”

"But there's one more problem." Liang Jingmo said.

"If it's to show off your strength, who are you going to show it off?" The two spoke in unison again.

Xiang Nanxing first thought of Jing Xinshui, the trainee host who never left the camera after his appearance. That guy probably has a more important task than supervising the game. Maybe he was nowhere to be seen at this time, and he was hiding in the shadows, filming the progress of the game with a camera, recording the performance of Kara and the others.

But no, that's not the case.

"The game area is huge, there are four players, and you can't record the whole process by one person. More likely than to actually use it as a videotap, the 'camera' is just a symbol, a hint from the game designer. We're all focused on how to beat the game, but at the same time, the hosts who are more experienced with the game routines noticed the hint earlier and might even have guessed what the game really looked like before it even started. He muttered to himself.

Thinking that they and those hosts are representing different camps at this time, the goal of this game is obviously not just to break through barriers and fight for the opportunity to send letters.

"'The neutrals are watching us' – that's the ultimate answer."

Peeling back the cocoon, the truth emerged, and Xiang Nanxing's eyes suddenly brightened. He and Liang Jingmo raised their heads in unison and looked up. There were a few faint bits of cold light in the corners of the ceiling nearby, like cold eyes, looking down from top to bottom. Look far and wide, and see more from afar. The area where they play is filled with a lot of hidden cameras, covering every corner and taking in all the details.

"I see, it's still live in real time."

Liang Jingmo sneered.

"After a long time, we were 'rigged odds'."
