"Actually, if you want to talk about the beginning, from the moment everyone walks into this hall, the game is equivalent to the beginning."

Although it is already in the past, Huang Lao still carefully started from the first part to explain: "There is a small tablet hidden in the tent where you are just now, this is the most important prop in this game, and it is also the qualification to participate in the subsequent part of the game, so you need to protect it carefully." If you don't find the tablet just now, you'll have to declare it out now. ”

Huang Lao smiled: "Fortunately, no one left the team today." ”

"The next game was organized at the request of the three players here, so I named it the 'Three Kingdoms Game', and these three players will play the role of 'Wei', 'Shu' and 'Wu' respectively, and compete in this venue. According to the results of the previous negotiation, the three players participating in this game will put all their chips on the table, and the winner will take it all. ”

As soon as the words fell, someone below showed a puzzled look. These people obviously did not belong to one of the "three players" he just mentioned, and some of them even entered the game through random selection, so they were not very mentally prepared in the first place. When I heard that I was going to press all the chips so much, I was a little apprehensive for a while.

"Don't worry, you don't have to take any risks."

Huang Lao resolved everyone's doubts in a timely manner: "Except for the three main players who participated in this 'Three Kingdoms Game', everyone else is a helper and does not need to mortgage any chips, but on the other hand, it is very likely that they will not get any direct rewards from this game." ”

His words were very particular, and Xiang Nanxing immediately realized it. The word "helper" sums up their essence and is the word Liang used when he asked him to help. In other words, they are different from these three participants, and the remaining nine people do not need to bear the results of the game, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are props or human NPCs in the game, and they are gathered here in order to let the talents of these three people be brought into play.

However, Huang Lao's next sentence is very mysterious.

The so-called "direct reward" of course refers to getting chips like a winner, which makes sense, and there is no risk and no gain. However, Huang Lao used the uncertain word "very likely" before this, and Xiang Nanxing guessed that this may represent two potential possibilities: one is that the helper may have the opportunity to carry out some kind of transaction with the three participants and obtain tangible benefits from it; The second is that the game has the potential to allow the facilitator to gain the equivalent of the participant in some situation, and thus also to be eligible to win or even eat all the chips.

Or both.

While he was thinking, he also pricked up his ears to listen to Huang Lao's rules. At this point, we finally got to the core of the rules.

"Rule 1: Under no circumstances shall a player attack with the intent of killing or seriously injuring other players, and if a player violates this rule, our host will intervene as soon as possible to ensure that the game is played according to the rules. In this case, you may be overweighted, so please keep this first rule in mind. ”

"Rule 2: Players must not attack other players or they will be severely punished – with the only exception being in the case of a 'Grab for Power' battle. I will explain this particular term in detail later. Now, please pick up the tablet in your hand, unlock it with your fingerprint, and enter the interface for the game. ”

Xiang Nanxing operated the tablet as he said. In front of him is a simple game interface, the "Y" shaped lines divide the whole picture into three parts of different colors, which are marked with Chinese characters "Wei", "Shu" and "Wu" three countries, thinking that they represent three players.

"What you see in front of you is the territory of the Three Kingdoms. Wei is in the north, Wu is in the southeast, and Shu is in the southwest. Historically, there has been a huge gap between the strength of these three countries, but here, for the sake of fairness, we assume that they have the same level of national strength, that is, they can mobilize 100,000 soldiers and horses from within the country each round. These 100,000 soldiers and horses can be used for offense and defense, but each movement can only be in 10,000 units. You can also choose to recuperate in a certain turn, i.e. do nothing, so that the number of troops you can use in the next turn will be 110,000, and this is the upper limit of the number of troops for a single player in this game - for now, let's say I represent Wei. ”

On the way to Huang Lao's introduction, a staff member behind him had already moved out a large display screen, which showed the picture that Xiang Nanxing had just seen. At this time, Huang Lao clicked on the word "Wei", and a small window popped up in real time, and there was a nine-square number grid on it. Huang Lao clicked "2", so the automatic window retracted, and there was no display on the map.

"In the operation just now, I chose 20,000 soldiers and horses to act on my country, which means to allocate 20,000 defenders. It's the same with offense, if you want to attack any country, just click on the name of the country and enter the number of troops you want to send. You can choose to allocate all of your troops or keep some of them, but the total number of troops allocated cannot exceed the total number of troops you have. It is important to note that the strength of the force is not displayed on the screen, as this is to try to prevent others from getting the information through the screen. In the same way, if an obviously wrong number is entered in the process, the system will not report the error, but will simply invalidate the operation. Therefore, it is important to keep your choices in mind and calculate the numbers before allocating troops. ”

Xiang Nanxing also learned his operation and clicked on the name of the country. Unexpectedly, however, instead of a window, a confirmation box that reads "Assassination" pops up. He looked left and right, and noticed that there were several other people with surprised expressions like himself. More than half of the people are like this, so it can be seen that this is not a system bug, it should be part of the game design.

"I see that some people seem to be a little uneasy." Huang Lao smiled, "Don't worry, it's not that the system is broken, but the game setting is inherently like this." As I've already mentioned, there are only three players who can be the king of a kingdom, and their interface should be the same as the one I just demonstrated. But for the other nine players, your role is the 'Assassin', the one who attacks the monarch with the aim of 'seizing power'. ”

The big screen behind him flashed, and it became what Xiang Nanxing had just seen. "This 'assassination' is the only action you can perform." Huang Lao said, "Each Assassin has three chances to 'assassinate', and once they have used all the opportunities, they must leave the game immediately. Assassination can only be used if the target is evenly or weakly targeted, and its ultimate goal is to seize power, which is the only way for you Assassin players to ascend to the throne as the ruler of a nation. I think, let me illustrate it with an example. ”

Huang Lao clapped his hands, and the big screen behind him changed back to the most basic Three Kingdoms interface.

"For example, there was a round like this, Wei sent 50,000 troops to defend, 50,000 to attack Shu, and Shu also used 50,000 to defend, 40,000 to attack Wei and 10,000 to attack Wu. At the same time, 50,000 on the Wu side defended, and 50,000 attacked Wei. ”

"In this case, the total strength of Wu and Shu to attack Wei reached 90,000, which exceeded its defensive strength, so Wei was broken through the defensive line, and the kings of Wu and Shu who participated in the attack were given a chance to 'seize power'...... The so-called seizure of power is the process of snatching the tablet of the former monarch within a limited period of three minutes, re-authenticating his fingerprints, and seizing his country, starting one minute after the results are released. ”

Everyone saw that at this time, the Three Kingdoms interface on the screen had disappeared, and was replaced by a pattern of a fingerprint scanning frame. It seems that as long as you swipe your finger over this pattern within the time limit, you will be considered a successful "seizure of power".

"Three minutes is the time limit, and if someone succeeds in seizing power, it will just end the process. But if no one succeeds in the overtime, it is the original monarch who has succeeded in protecting it, and he can continue to be king. What is seized for power is the virtual permissions attached to this tablet, and these tablets correspond to your fingerprints, except for the moment of the 'seizure of power' battle, others can't operate it. After the seizure of power is successful, the original tablet must be returned to the original owner. However, those who are seized power lose the authority of the monarch and become assassins, while those who succeed in the seizure of power become the ruler of the country. It should be noted that even if you have access to two countries at the same time, you can only choose one of them when ordering each turn, and then there will be an additional option to choose a country, and the country that is not selected will be passively in a state of 'recuperation', in other words, defenseless. ”

Huang Lao cleared his throat and continued. "And what about the Assassins? In the same game just now, if an Assassin chooses to assassinate the monarch of Wei, while the latter's defense line is broken by the Wu Shu coalition forces, this assassin will also get the same opportunity to 'seize power' as the winner, and hopefully become the new monarch. ”

"To put it bluntly, it's a bet." Someone whispered.

"It's still a little different from betting." Huang Lao smiled. "Let's take a look at the other side. The Wei State of 50,000 soldiers and horses attacked the Shu State, and the Shu State had the same number of defensive troops. If no one else intervened, according to the rules of the game, the Wei attack would have failed. But if an assassin chooses to assassinate the monarch of Shu at this time, things will be interesting. ”

He held up a finger: "It's like the last straw that broke the camel's back, the defense line of Shu was broken through by the Wei State and the Assassin Alliance!" However, in this case, the Wei state, as a regular army, failed to break through the defense line, could not get a chance to seize power, and only the Assassins could try to seize the throne of the Shu monarch...... This is the difference between assassination and betting: unlike the former, which is just about picking a winner to cling to, assassination itself is an act that can change the outcome, and you can become the winner yourself. ”

"In my opinion, the beauty of seizing power is not limited to this."

This time, it was Luo Baichuan who interjected in a high-profile manner. He looked at the tablet in his hand and suddenly threw out a sharp question: "Host, are these tablets reliable as game props?" ”

In a game of adversity, this kind of questioning directly about the game's setting is tantamount to slapping the host's ear scraper in person. It's just that Huang Lao's temper is too good, so he just asked with a smile: "What do you mean by this?" ”

"I mean, isn't there a moment in the process of seizing power, and the tablet will fall into the hands of someone else." Luo Baichuan raised his head and said with a smile, "If it's me, do a little trick on it at this time to make it unable to use normally...... Isn't the other party about to be forced to leave? ”

"Great question, you can try." Huang Lao smiled indifferently. Although he didn't answer directly, this look of not taking the problem into account obviously shows that the host has thought about these things in the design of props.

Luo Baichuan nodded thoughtfully. Just when everyone thought he was giving up, he turned around and kicked out with a crisp whip kick! Chen Zhi, who was standing over there, hadn't reacted yet, only heard a "snap", and Luo Baichuan's toes kicked the tablet in his hand hard!
