Violet Academy, the living area of Area B, a pale blue shimmer suddenly fell directly above the square in front of the dormitory building, and the crystal data fragments flew with it, and when the light gradually solidified, a familiar figure emerged. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

[Player: That's crazy; Base area: Area B; Remaining Draw Points: 100; Number of regions: 1】

The system prompt sounded in his ears, Zhen Shifeng was slightly stunned at first, and then turned his attention to the chronograph display suspended in mid-air, which was displayed as [Remaining time in the preparation stage: 29 minutes and 55 seconds]

"Does that mean you have to be well prepared from the start?" While speaking, Zhen Shifeng subconsciously touched his space backpack, and sure enough, the system issued a 'locked' prompt one after another.

As Cher said before, players are not allowed to use items and skills, and the only way to accumulate combat power is through a point lottery, which allows you to obtain a sufficient number of weapons and NPCs to set the stage for your own victory. Knowing this, it has become a priority for all players to find the location of the lottery machine first.

However, before that, according to Brother Feng's habits, he still had to take some time to understand the surrounding environment as much as possible, familiarize himself with the routes and buildings everywhere, and imprint them deeply in his mind in case of emergency. This is the way detectives behave, and their meticulous way of thinking determines that no detail escapes their eyes, and these details often become the key fulcrum to solve the puzzle, thus playing an unexpected role.

The living quarters, as the name suggests, include three rows of dormitories, a supermarket, and a large playground at the back, known as the independent gymnasium. Although the overall scale is not large, it still takes a lot of time to explore every corner. Fortunately, after searching, Zhen Shifeng happened to find the lottery machine placed on the second floor of the supermarket, which saved a lot of effort.

"Uh, what the hell, what kind of lottery machine is this?" Brother Feng couldn't help but shudder.

If you want to talk about lottery machines, then at least there must be a coin machine or slot machine in the game hall, so that players can recognize it with their eyes, right? But this thing in front of him is a public phone hanging on the wall, if it weren't for the sign next to it that said 'lottery machine', Zhen Shifeng probably wouldn't be able to find it in his life.

[Hint: The lottery machine is only available for use during the preparation stage, and you can now consume a certain number of lottery points for the draw]

"I see, it seems that it is impossible to replenish the combat power through lottery during the battle." Zhen Shifeng sighed helplessly, and at the same time glanced at the 100-point lottery value in the status bar. Although the more points you pay, the better the prizes drawn, but in the end there is no relevant example to refer to, and God knows what criteria are used to divide the corresponding ratio of points paid to the quality of the prize.

"Since there is no criterion, then we can only try it through comparison, at least the rules do not stipulate the minimum amount of points to be paid each time, right?" As he spoke, he directly typed the number '5' into the keypad of the 'public phone', and at the same time pressed the confirmation button, and a string of words immediately appeared on the narrow old-fashioned display screen [Congratulations on getting a soybean!] 】

"Sure enough, if there are fewer points, there will definitely be no good things, but what kind of trouble is a soybean?"

Then he tried to type in the number '20', and the text prompted, "Congratulations on getting a stone!" 】

"Well, the stone is still a little bit lethal, and it would be better if it could be a brick."

In the end, Zhen Shifeng simply paid all the remaining 75 lottery points. Before the display screen could react, I saw a choking cloud of smoke suddenly burst out of his side, as if he had launched a summoning spell, out of thin air out of the smoke came out of thin air, wearing a straw hat and wearing old clothes, covered with red cloth strips, almost everywhere in the field, an ordinary scarecrow can no longer be an ordinary one: [Congratulations on getting the NPC: just a scarecrow for decoration!] 】

"Huh...... Hehe, the guy who didn't name this NPC and the same person who set the item note information, right? Faced with this extremely nonsense name, Zhen Shifeng suddenly felt that his complaining skills were far from enough.

So far, the prizes for the 100 raffle points are as follows: a soybean, a stone, and a scarecrow just for decoration. Soybeans can slip and fall enemies when thrown on the ground, stones can be thrown to smash enemies, and scarecrows can confuse enemies when they are placed in place. If you can combine them smartly......

"Throwing soybeans on the ground to make the enemy slide, then erecting a scarecrow to confuse the enemy, and finally throwing a stone to give him a blow to the head while he is unprepared, well, good tactic............ That's weird! What fool can be so easily tricked! ”

At this moment, the system sent a prompt: [There is only one minute and thirty seconds left until the end of the preparation phase]

According to the rules, if the barrier in the area where Zhen Shifeng is located is opened, then he must make a choice between staying and going out. Still, it is important to know which border barriers are open before you can make a judgment. It's best if you can go to the unoccupied area, after all, you can first gain control of the contention phase, and accumulate three times to make it permanently belong to your subordinates. Otherwise, if the three barriers are not opened, you can at least ensure your own safety and be able to concentrate on guessing puzzles to accumulate more lottery points.

It's a pity that the wishes are very beautiful, but the reality is cruel. At the end of the minute and 30 seconds, the text content was replaced on the chronograph display:

[Time remaining in the scramble stage: 14 minutes and 59 seconds]

[The barriers opened are: A and B, C and E, D and E]

In other words, this first phase of the contest may result in a situation in which the owners of Area AB will compete with each other for each other's areas, and the owners of Area CD will compete for unoccupied areas. Especially in the latter, there is even the possibility that the two sides will directly invade the other party's base area across the unoccupied area. In short, this battle will definitely not be so simple, and the situation will definitely become more and more chaotic.

"So, who exactly does Area A belong to?" Zhen Shifeng couldn't help but smile lightly.

However, no matter who chose to invade or not, he resolutely pressed the 'stay' button in front of the prompt bar. In the first round, Zhen Shifeng naturally needed to accumulate strength, and it was obviously not a wise choice to fight to the death in his current state. What's more, once the opponent invades the system, it will also send a warning in time, as long as you hide until the end of the scramble stage without being fired. Of course, this is only his preliminary plan, after all, being timid is not Brother Feng's consistent style, and after the strength accumulates to a certain extent, it is necessary to strike first to remove obstacles, so as to lay the foundation for victory.

[You have chosen to stay behind, do you want to guess the quiz?] 】

[Tip 1: Mystery items are only found in the area to which they belong, and they are not allowed to break into other areas while staying behind]

[Tip 2.The timer will start from the answer question, and the points will be determined according to the time spent by the player]

Brother Feng decisively clicked the 'yes' option, guessing the riddle was a piece of cake for him, and the honor of winning the championship of the middle school riddle contest for three consecutive years was not given in vain.

[Next, please listen to the question: ten plus ten, still ten, ten minus ten, or ten left (hit a daily item)]

When the voice fell, Zhen Shifeng suddenly frowned and muttered: "Ten plus ten, ten minus ten, that is to say, the number of items added or subtracted from each other remains the same?" ”

The ingenuity of detective reasoning lies in the fact that they are good at sorting out the intricate clues and then pressing along the clues to the truth. The whole process can be described as methodical, clear step by step, and the rigor of logical thinking is obvious.

The same is true for the riddle at hand.

After thinking for a moment, Zhen Shifeng stared at the number 'ten' in the puzzle at a glance, and there was no doubt that this number was the key fulcrum that could pry the entire puzzle. However, there are many objects associated with the 'ten' in daily life, such as the 'public telephone' in front of you, whose keyboard is composed of ten digits, or the cross in the church, the red cross in the hospital, and so on. The complexity of the organization seems to mean that the clues that have just been sorted out are interrupted again, but ............

"Well, I see, if you don't savor it, I'm afraid it's really hard to guess the mystery!" Zhen Shifeng shrugged and smiled, but the answer was already clear in his heart.

Here we have to mention another quality of detectives, that is, they are extremely rich in associations. With only one leaf, you can know that the autumn wind is coming, and its ability to see the subtleties is infinitely amplified through rich associative power, which not only pushes the whole picture of the event but also does not lose the correct theory, bit by bit, all in mastery. This is the only magic weapon used by detectives to find the truth, and the ultimate trump card of reasoning and solving cases.

"Ten and ten are superimposed, and so is separation. If an object is still ten fingers on the hand, it is still ten fingers when it is taken off............ Is there any other answer than gloves, hehe? ”
