Chapter 313: Chapter 142: The Fewer Players, the Harder the Game_2

Although in the end, if I wanted to greedily take the points for myself, I would still have to fight for them, but at least that moment would come after the battle with the robots.

Gao Xin’s goal was simply to gather all the points. It didn’t really matter who held them.

After all, it was either going to be a happy ending for everyone or an ultimate showdown.

He left the choice to Ling Sha; if Ling Sha were to covet the points, then the ultimate battle would take place after defeating the robots. If Ling Sha didn’t covet the points and returned them, then everyone would cooperate happily.

And during this process, the risk Gao Xin faced while fighting the robots would be minimized.

...

The duel time passed quickly, and Gao Xin concluded the duel peacefully with Iron Hand.

The Black Knight didn’t die; his chest was blown open, but such an injury, for a True Tiger-level vitality, could last a very long time.

Actually, the Black Knight could have recovered earlier just by letting the swarm of bees feed on the flesh and nearby corpses.

It was Gao Xin who used the hormonal pheromones to constantly disrupt the bees, suppressing him.

This guy couldn’t die yet, but there was also no need for him to recover.

After Gao Xin and Iron Hand went upstairs, they saw that Ling Sha had dismembered the Black Knight’s limbs and was dragging him upstairs by the hair after a draw.

With that, everyone’s duels had concluded.

"We’ve all taken the last five rooms, leaving the front rooms vacant," Gao Xin suggested.

No one objected, and each went into their own rooms.

F Black Knight, G Ling Sha, H Gao Xin, I Iron Hand, J is Lin An.

The five of them started the third round.

"Ding!"

Gao Xin hit the bell with an arrow once again, remaining the questioner. This time he asked, "Who are the top ten powerhouses in Yamaguchi Village at this very moment?"

This question was rather simple.

Yet it was packed with deep meaning. Gao Xin was asking about the "at this very moment" powerhouses in Yamaguchi Village.

Most importantly, the first five answers were coming from the AI.

Ling Sha flickered a glance, "Oh? Want to know the extent of the official surveillance on Crime Prison Island?"

Quickly, robot A replied, "King Cobra Suzuki Shougen."

Robot from room B answered, "Quasi-Elephant King Luo Yi."

Hearing this, Ling Sha was astonished, "Eh? Luo Yi brother is in Yamaguchi Village?"

Since everyone had agreed on cooperative play, naturally, the communication speakers between the rooms were open.

Lin An spoke up, "I also know about this, Luo Yi was touring the Dahe region, first arrived at Lin Village, and only recently got to Yamaguchi Village."

Gao Xin was surprised, then he asked, "Ling Sha, you didn’t know about this?"

Ling Sha curled his lips, "The strong are plentiful in Tangren City, impossible to count them all. How could I know the whereabouts of each?"

Iron Hand then said, "But the officials know; could it be that there is surveillance everywhere? The government is monitoring my every move?"

Ling Sha laughed heartily, "Honestly, you’re not worth it. Only those at the Dragon Elephant level would be tracked."

"As for the Tiger Level, why would the officials bother with you? The navy alone has four hundred thousand at the Tiger Level."

"My brother Luo Yi is under surveillance because he is a Quasi-Elephant King, capable of deep-sea diving and crossing the Pacific in stride."

Gao Xin thought to himself, indeed, in the eyes of the officials, individuals at the wolf and tiger level weren’t much different from ordinary people, all being targets that could be eliminated with heavy firepower.

However, for Dragon Elephant-level beings, conventional firearms and even missiles had become virtually useless.

Next, robots C, D, and E successively provided their answers.

All were single names, some even being unknown nobodies.

Lin An exclaimed, "Why has the AI started to give confusing answers? They’re only providing one name without stating their numbers?"

Gao Xin replied, "As long as it’s within the rules, the AI can answer however it likes."

"In fact, they have indicated their numbers, because I asked for the ’top ten’ powerhouses, their different ranks naturally correspond to different numbers."

"For the AI with definite rankings, they only need to mention a name to express a number."

"For example, Luo Yi is the current second strongest entity in Yamaguchi Village, so the number for room B is 2."

Iron Hand spoke with a tone of surprise, "But how are we to know who the current top ten powerhouses in Yamaguchi Village are?"

"Even answers like Luo Yi have appeared, and he’s from Tangren City... to visit Yamaguchi Village? How would I know that..."

Ling Sha called out, "My brother Luo Yi is definitely ranked first, who in Yamaguchi Village could be stronger than him? Therefore, B is number 1."

Gao Xin calmly stated, "No, I am number 1."

Ling Sha was taken aback; how could someone in Yamaguchi Village be stronger than Luo Yi? Could it mean that Fujihara Tomohiro was in Yamaguchi Village?

Lin An then said, "It’s still simplest and most direct to use several answers to represent the respective number."

Gao Xin solemnly said, "The reason AI answered that way before was because we players set an example, conveying numbers through the number of answers, so the following AI mimicked the format to play along."

"But this round, I purposely made the first five rooms AI, to test what it would be like when the AI leads the answering. From what we see now, it’s not good; we can’t even differentiate what number the AI is."

"The AI have their own database methodology. They express numbers 1 to 10 through the magnitude and strength of the answers, something that players might not be able to grasp."

"I even suspect that the AI can express abstractly since they all share the same database, whatever the answer represents, they all understand."

The crowd became more serious; the AI had started understanding abstract expressions, while they, the players, were still counting on their fingers.

Iron Hand urged, "Then don’t let the AI take the lead in answering, for the fourth round, we must take the first five rooms."

Gao Xin sneered, "I’m afraid the order of speaking is not the most important thing; the key should be the number of people..."
