"Before we came, the second group of seven people and the third group of four people all agreed to this plan."
When Lin Sanjiu jumped lightly onto a branch protruding from the air, the meeting and conversation held by the second, third, and fifth group members dozens of minutes ago were still echoing in her mind.
"The person who took the number plate is still a plant belonging to a certain group, but the absorption amount has dropped to 0. This is the first rule we can use; the second rule is that the absorption amount of all members is the same
If so, then everyone can leave the greenhouse - and the key point to determine the amount of absorption is seven o'clock in the evening on the tenth day."
As soon as Lin Sanjiu settled down, she immediately felt a slight sway of the branches under her feet - she lowered her body, lowered her center of gravity, and waited for the trembling of the branches to gradually stop.
"...It's already obvious what we should do next. As long as everyone agrees to take off their number plates at seven o'clock, then the absorption of all members will be 0 in that minute; that is,
He said, everyone is even. At 7:01, hang up the number plate, and successfully leave this dungeon as a fully grown plant."
When the man with a gloomy look and dark eyes finished speaking calmly, Lin Sanjiu was shocked and suddenly remembered what Harry had accidentally said -
"Is it really that simple?" After hearing the plan, No. 46 said without doubt, "What if there are some hidden rules that we don't understand..."
No, it's really that simple.
Lin Sanjiu followed the branch and submerged into the green leaves. It was as light and flexible as a lizard in the jungle, without making any sound.
She didn't know how she could have ignored this at the time, but looking back now, the matter couldn't be more clear - when Lin Sanjiu discovered the mystery on the number plate, she asked Harry why he didn't reveal this.
Mingshi, Harry once answered her like this with grievance: "...I told you, wouldn't I have no profit?"
That's right - if this is just a battle between the fifth group and the fourth group, then no matter who loses or wins, Harry will always gain in the end and will not say such a sentence; it seems that the reason why he
I didn't want to explain it clearly before, but I had already thought that all the team members in the greenhouse could escape using this method.
"Why would you want to do this?" No. 46 is cautious and suspicious by nature. His tone did not relax much because of Lin Sanjiu's small proof: "...If you just stand by and watch, which group will lose in the end?
It has no impact on you."
The bald man scratched his scalp and sighed.
"Ahem, brother, you will know it as soon as you think about it. Now the fourth group has been robbed of a number plate. How dangerous is that? If it were you, wouldn't you try every means? To put it bluntly
.If you two groups want to kill people and grab cards together, the rest of our groups will also be implicated in your battle." He glanced at Lin Sanjiu: "This old girl has a very kind heart, if she can
We can all be saved together. Why bother fighting to the death?"
"If you don't cooperate, everyone will be harmed to some extent; but if you cooperate, everyone will get absolute benefits." The tall and thin man concluded in a low tone.
The plan sounds simple, but——
"What if someone fails to take off their number plate at the last moment?" No. 47 indeed raised this concern, "When everyone passes the test, only one group will win, and the rest will have to lose weight."
"This problem is not difficult to solve." No. 46 frowned and replied, "We can set a gathering time, gather everyone together, and then collect everyone's number tag. If you must wear your own
If nutrition can only be absorbed by a number plate, then you can put all the cards in one person's hand, and then give the holder's number plate to another person; if it does not matter the original owner, as long as there is a brand, it can be absorbed, you can also put all the number plates.
Store them in one place and monitor each other collectively. If there are people who are absent and do not hand in their number tags, it is equivalent to betrayal and will be hunted by everyone until seven o'clock in the evening on the tenth day - of course, the person who is being chased will be killed.
You can’t wear a number plate... Anyway, the details can still be determined."
The bald man didn't seem to have thought so deeply. He said "Ah" twice before hesitatingly said: "... After all, it is a good thing for everyone. No one would harm others and not benefit himself."
No. 46 did not answer - judging from his expression, he seemed to feel that there was no need to answer the bald man's words; after he asked Lin Sanjiu to put on the number plate of the martial arts vest, and checked the absorption amount with Harry
, everyone finally confirmed the fact that "wearing someone else's number plate is useless."
"Although this plan is very good, I still have to point out one point."
After everyone discussed for a while and the whole plan was gradually taking shape, No. 46 suddenly said this with a serious face, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"If someone rejects our proposal at the beginning, it's not a bad thing - after all, there is still a long time before the tenth day, and we can use strong methods to snatch the number plate." Speaking of this, No. 46
He stretched out his finger and made a "four" sign: "It's just that I'm not worried about this group."
"Are you worried about the first group?" the gloomy, lanky man asked in a low voice.
"Yes. The behavior of the fourth group can be considered to be forced by the situation, but the people of the first group never considered the possibility of a peaceful solution from the beginning - they are the culprits who directly caused the current situation.
Even if we go to them with this plan, is it possible for them to accept it?" No. 46 said with a slight sneer: "But if you don't accept it, it means being an enemy of the four groups; then with their
Judging from their behavior, what I'm worried about is that they pretended to agree, but were doing things in secret, and finally made themselves the only group of people to survive."
This worry is indeed justified - the fourth group lost a number plate first, which had a huge impact on morale; in this case, the possibility of them being willing to resolve it peacefully is very high. Rather, it is for insurance reasons
.They should have attacked the first group who had never shown up from beginning to end, and there was no need to risk trying to get them to join.
And doing this is not as difficult as imagined.
After talking with the bald man and the tall and thin man for a while, everyone in the fifth group realized one thing: the man pulling flowers that No. 47 accidentally saw, none of them knew him, and he should be affiliated with No. 47.
A group.
Although they don’t know why they left only one person to guard the purple flower growth point, it obviously means that the number of people in the first group is not large, which is undoubtedly good news for the others - everyone discussed it for a while and quickly made it
Okay, division of labor.
Since the fourth and fifth groups were still in a state of hostility, the job of persuading the fourth group to join was left to the bald and lanky man; while Lin Sanjiu was unanimously elected to investigate the situation of the first group——
If the time is right, you might as well ambush a few number plates and come back.
The location given by No. 47 is not difficult to find; in fact, if he hadn't said it, even Lin Sanjiu wouldn't be able to believe that the purple flower's growing point was so close to the gate.
At this time, in the surrounding patches of dense forest-like deep green, there was only the dull, hot and humid quiet air that seemed to have solidified. There was not a trace of wind or a trace of sound. She climbed around silently. There was no one there.
I saw——I don’t know what happened to the first group. There was no defense near the growing point.
Lowering her body slightly, she disappeared into a clump of zigzag-shaped leaves.
Calculating the time, it has only been more than ten hours since the last time purple flowers grew.
Since she didn't know where the exact growth point was, she had to constantly monitor every inch of the area within a hundred meters for the next ten hours. It had to be said that it was a challenge both mentally and physically.
Not a small burden.
After turning on [Consciousness Scanning], Lin Sanjiu closed her eyes, feeling the heavy and stagnant air around her, while quietly waiting for the first person to show up.
...She didn't wait long.
The circle of dirty glass on the top of the greenhouse gradually became darker as the sky outside grew darker; soon, in the greenhouse tightly wrapped in the late night, the dim white light overhead became the only source of light.
Most of the light was blocked by the thick branches and leaves as it fell. When the light fell on Lin Sanjiu, it had become a thin layer of mist.
In this haze, a figure quietly approached the foot of the plant where Lin Sanjiu was hiding.
This green seedling was planted in a huge flower pot, at least as big as several swimming pools put together; if you cast your eyes over the layers of branches and leaves, you will always fall on the deep black soil in the flower pot. Come here
He was wearing a dirty sports top covered in mud spots. If he hadn't happened to walk into the range of [Consciousness Scanning], it would have been very difficult for Lin Sanjiu to spot him.
The person who came was wearing a sportswear hat and was not carrying purple flowers on his body. He seemed to be either a woman or a thin young man. The person first walked around the flower pot and carefully inspected the plants.
The roots, then looked up again, and climbed up the branches.
Lin Sanjiu didn't even move - until the person came close to the leaf she was on, she turned around gently and slid into another leaf, just in time to avoid the person's gaze - this
All her movements were done silently and smoothly, as if she had been living in the tree for many years.
When the man turned back and climbed down from the top, he seemed to have relaxed his vigilance and took off his hat; when passing by Lin Sanjiu, she finally saw clearly the other person's pale face, which was thin and visible.
——Because her eyebrows are always slightly frowned, she looks a little sad.
Lin Sanjiu's heart beat twice and she confirmed again——
That's right, there is only one member of the first group within a hundred meters of here.
Her body moved one step ahead of her brain - she kicked off her feet, took advantage of the momentum to jump forward, and had already grabbed the edge of the leaf where the woman in the first group was with her hands; before the other party could react, what happened?
She rolled up her body, supported herself with her arms, and swung into a circle in the air, landing gently behind the woman.
It was only then that the other party's messy long hair moved, apparently just reacting; Lin Sanjiu stretched out his left hand, grabbed her elbow when she turned around, and then whispered coldly:
"do not move."
The woman's body really froze.
"I have a purple flower on my back. As long as you move a little, my hand will slide down to your right hand." After using "300 Road" to get insurance, Lin Sanjiu threatened in a low voice.
One sentence.
"What do you want?" the strange woman asked in a trembling voice, "If you want flowers, just take them and they will bloom immediately."
"Where are your team members? Why didn't you come with them?" As he said this, Lin Sanjiu scanned the surroundings vigilantly. "...How many of you are there in total?"
However, behind the messy and frizzy long hair, there was silence for a few moments before a hesitant answer came.
"...Team member? Did you find the wrong person?" The strange woman sounded a little frightened, "All the seeds in the same batch as me are dead, and I am the only one who entered here."
Lin Sanjiu's eyelids twitched, and the force of his hand suddenly became stronger - "What? Aren't you in the first group?"
"It's true that I'm in the first group, but it's really just me." Seeing that she didn't believe it, the woman was so anxious that there was a hint of crying in her voice: "...Harry told me, just because I am the only one in this group.
I am the only one, so for the sake of fairness, I was allowed to be the first one to enter the greenhouse."
Lin Sanjiu was stunned. This news was indeed beyond her expectation, and it also explained the reason for Harry's arrangement; but her hand on the other person's arm did not relax at all: "That's why you attacked the third group
People? To gain an advantage?”
The arm under the fingers trembled, and then the strange woman turned half of her body with difficulty, revealing her pale profile: "...Ah? What are you talking about? I have never attacked anyone! I don't have anything on my hands at all.
purple flower!"
"Stop talking nonsense, my team members have seen you pluck a purple flower from here with their own eyes," Lin Sanjiu snorted coldly, but frowned slightly - the other party did not have a flower on him.
Judging from the situation just now, she is a very cautious person, and there is indeed no reason to go around without flowers... Could it be that she has been lying and spending the flowers in the hands of other team members? But what good does this do to her?
Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a while, the strange woman became even more anxious and hurriedly repeated the sentence "Both of my flowers were robbed" several times; but Lin Sanjiu didn't bother to distinguish it at all.
It was true or false - [Flat World] was activated silently, and her right hand was already pressed on the number plate strap behind the other person's neck.
"Really, I didn't lie to you. One of the people who stole my flowers was wearing a vest..." The woman didn't know that her number plate had disappeared, and she still didn't stop talking; Lin Sanjiu wanted to hit her
When he cut her off, Harry's rumbling voice completed the job for her.
"Group 4 No. 31, death." (To be continued.)
