Chapter 21 Task Assignment

The waiting time was a bit boring. Twenty minutes later, the bloody emblem finally sent a reminder:

"E3216 rescued Deckard Cain and got 300 reward points."

"All the tasks in the first competition field are completed, and we will enter the second competition field Lu Gaoyin in ten minutes."

A portal opened, Wen Wen Hong Lang and the others strode out from it, followed by Shen Yi's paratroopers. Hobby and Knight came to the left and right, guarding an old man in ancient robes, who was obviously Deckard Cain, and there was another person behind him, it was Hong Yin from the Dragon Tooth Team. Hong Yin, like Huang Tianyang, accepted Shen Yi's arrangement and served him in this mission.

As soon as he saw Shen Yi, Hong Lang came over with a big grin: "Hey, boss, you are so right. Deckard Cain knows how to complete professional tasks. This guy is an encyclopedia. If you have any questions, you can answer them." You can ask him."

It turned out that after Hong Lang completed the reward task, Hong Lang received a reminder: the friendship with Deckard Cain increased by 100 points. You can ask Deckard Cain questions or ask for other help, and the friendship points will be deducted as appropriate.

So Hong Lang told Deckard Kane that he hoped to become a real berserker, but he didn't know how to do it. Deckard Kane told Hong Lang that in the Edras continent, to become a true warrior, one must not only have outstanding martial arts skills, but also have a medal that can symbolize one's identity and strength.

Since hell invaded the human world, the king of Lugoin issued a warrior recruitment order, calling on the brave to deal with hell monsters. Any warrior can go there to complete the task issued by the king, and once the task is completed, he can get the warrior medal.

Obviously, this should be the way to open professional tasks in the dark world.

However, after getting the answer, Hong Lang was very depressed to find that ten points had been deducted from his friendship with Deckard Cain.

This made him very dissatisfied: I rescued you from freedom, but I can only change the answers to ten questions. Is Bloody City too stingy, or is it just your nature to be so mean?

Gentle strode over: "Listen to Deckard Cain's tone, with our strength, it will not be difficult to complete the professional task, but I don't know if it will conflict with the main task."

Shen Yi: "Then we can only find out after receiving the mission. By the way, are there any bad consequences if the mission fails?"

"That's it."

"That's good. By the way, since the old man has friendship, there are probably other ways to increase friendship, and what this old man can do for us is definitely not just answering questions."

Regarding the value of Deckard Cain, everyone has a common understanding: he is an assistant to complete the task. There may be no value in leaving the dark world, but as long as he is in this world, his value may exceed Andariel's reward.

As for how much you can play, it depends on how you use it.

Shen Yi asked Hong Lang to ask Deckard Kane if he knew the formula for synthesizing the word of the rune.

Deckard Kane readily told Hong Lang that he knew. It's just that each formula needs to deduct ten points of friendliness. There are dozens of combinations of rune words. Before collecting enough rune stones, even asking is useless. If you ask something that is useless to you , but a waste of friendship, so Hong Lang can only give up.

"Take your time, do your best and obey the fate." Shen Yi didn't care too much: "By the way, how is the score situation?"

Gentle answer: "Hong Lang 450, King Kong 50, me 75, Fatty 25."

Since the reward task was assigned to Hong Lang, Hong Lang got 300 reward points. In addition, in the process of clearing the guards, Hong Lang also showed great power, and he did half of the killings by himself. As for the other three, the attack power of King Kong and Fatty is too low, they only accounted for 25% of the contribution points together.

But in this way, both Hong Lang and Zhou Yiyu were the first to leave the must-kill list.

Shen Yi thought for a while and said: "That's fine, the next task of offering rewards will be left to King Kong and Fatty, gentlemen, please be aggrieved.

Use contribution points as much as possible to meet the 450 points requirement. "

"clear."

For Wen Rou, her long whip is suitable for group battles, and it is not too difficult to earn small points. Previously, Hong Lang was able to get such a high score because everyone intentionally let him. On the one hand, let a person off the killing list first, and on the other hand, try to meet the needs of the killing.

Shen Yi also said: "After everyone is off the death list, if conditions permit, we will hand over the killing to Hong Lang as much as possible, and let him break through the 1,800-point requirement."

"Why?" Everyone was puzzled.

Shen Yi smiled: "I just want to play a numbers game..."

According to the rules of the bloody city, if the points are over 450 points but less than 900 points, all point rewards will be halved, and if the points are over 1,800 points, the excess rewards will be doubled.

According to this rule, Shen Yi realized that if each of the six members of the team reaches 900 points, it means that 5400 points are needed.

If the 5400 points are divided unequally into five 450 points, then the remaining one will get 3150 points, and the excess will be 1350 points. After doubling, the final sum of rewards will become 5625 points. The blade team will have 225 more points for nothing.

This is a very interesting arithmetic problem. A small amount is halved and a large amount is doubled.

On this basis, every point the Broken Blade team gains is equivalent to doubling the reward, as long as the points are added to the person with the highest points—a person who satisfies personal interests by sacrificing the interests of most people, thereby ways to increase the overall benefit.

It was precisely because of this that Shen Yi made the decision to let Hong Lang be responsible for the main killing.

Of course, you can say that this is a loophole in the rules, but this loophole may not really be a loophole.

Because you can't be sure of your gains.

Combat is a science of confrontation, not calculation. The most important thing in the battle is how to defeat the opponent, not that it's your turn to fight after I finish this shot. No one can guarantee that in a fierce battle, he can meet the requirement of 450 points just by contributing points. And once this standard is not met, it will be the fate of obliteration.

Therefore, this loophole is both a loophole and a huge test. It can be vaguely grasped, but not precisely controlled. You not only need to have the ability to discover loopholes, but more importantly, you also need to have the ability to grasp this loophole and make good use of it.

So Shen Yi can only get everyone out of the death gate first, and then implement this plan.

But King Kong immediately said: "If Fatty and I get the reward points first, and then implement this plan, there will be a logical paradox. When we are all off the death list, we will continue with the next task. It is impossible for Hong Lang to participate in the battle alone. In this way, we will inevitably divide his contribution points. Once he cannot break through the 1,800-point mark and we have not reached 900-point points, it will be more difficult. It causes a waste of points. For example, Hong Lang gets 1,700 points and others get 800 points. That means the other five people lose 400 points each."

"That's right." Shen Yi said with a smile: "Generally speaking, this is both a digital loophole and a digital trap. The best way is for everyone else to get off the death list only by contributing points, but this is too risky , if someone fails to reach 450 points, they will be obliterated."

Let's look at Fatty together. With this guy's attack, he probably won't be able to get 450 points even if he hit the third difficulty. In the previous 450 contribution points, three people fought, but he just got 25 points, only one-tenth of it, which was the result of deliberately letting him down.

Shen Yi continued: "So this kind of thing can only be decided according to the situation. If anyone's points increase by accident, then simply let him increase to 900 points. The method is dead, but the person is alive. On the basis of ensuring everyone's safety, we might as well give it a try. I have considered that even if the plan fails in the end, we will lose some points at most, but at least Hong Lang's battle ax can absorb more soul energy. It's also worth it, not to mention that his talent is activated now, and he needs to fight a lot."

When it comes to gain and loss, Shen Yi has always been very clear about his calculations. When he said this, everyone felt that they might as well give it a try.

"Then it's settled." Rourou said, "At least two reward points will be awarded for the next mission, and they will be handed over to King Kong and Fatty respectively. We now have twelve people, and we already occupy nearly one-third of the strength here. It is not a problem to divide the troops into two groups."

"Then how many of them are there?" King Kong pointed at Huang Tianyang and them with his mouth.

Shen Yi replied: "Ivy and Lao Meng already have enough points, and then they will only get contribution points. As for Huang Tianyang, the three of them should each have about 100 points in their hands. As long as they continue to participate in the battle, Getting off the death list is not a problem. As for that Hongyin..."

Shen Yi hesitated for a moment.

Hong Yin was captured alive by Hong Lang, but he missed the fight, and his points are still 0.

After thinking about it, Shen Yi said, "Give him reward points depending on the situation."

Thus was the fate of the four captives decided.

After discussing the matter, King Kong threw something to Shen Yi, but it was a D-level patent leather armor with a defense of 10 points and weakened the damage to weapons by 7%, which was slightly better than cotton armor.

King Kong said: "It's for killing the prison guards. You can see the distribution."

Although this piece of armor is worthless, it is the second most practical equipment after weapons, and it is also the equipment that improves the most defense. The Broken Blade team currently has three pieces of armor, one for Hong Lang, one for Fatty, and one for Wenrou, so Shen Yi directly said: "You can use this armor."

Among all the current enhancements, Vajra and Fatty are the least. If it weren't for the general awareness of Vajra, he might have fallen out by now, so he should add some "nutrition".

King Kong accepted it bluntly. Although this behavior seemed a bit redundant, it was a procedure that the captain must follow to ensure his own authority. Although this behavior seemed a bit redundant, he always paid attention to protecting the captain. authority.

Anyway, nothing happened, so we introduced each other and got to know each other.

Seeing Ai Wei, Hong Lang's eyes lit up immediately: "Is she the little girl who can go back in time?"

Originally, according to the agreement, it was not allowed to tell others about the reverse flow of time. It's just that Ivy used time countercurrent in front of Huang Tianyang and others, and the agreement was broken by herself, so that the agreement became invalid, so Hong Lang and the others also knew about it.

At this moment, Hong Lang was about to go up to say hello, but Zhou Yiyu had already pulled him back. His tone was strict and serious: "Mine."

Hong Lang looked at him: "How about fair competition?"

"Don't even think about it, if you are a buddy, don't spoil my good deeds."

Hong Lang rolled his eyes and said with a smirk: "Actually, I think being with this little girl may not be a good thing for you."

Zhou Yiyu was taken aback: "Why?"

Hong Lang replied seriously: "Think about it, she is a woman with the ability to flow backward in time. If you do something with this woman in the future, in case your time is too short, pounce, spray, and she thinks it is not enough, I will give you one." Back in time...and then you pounce again...she will come back in time again...you can't let it go? I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it."

Zhou Yiyu froze immediately, and the others burst out laughing at the same time, Rourou kicked him hard, cursing: "What have you been thinking about all day long?"

Shen Yi hurriedly stopped Zhou Yiyu, who was about to go crazy, and glared at Hong Lang: "Stop talking nonsense, she's a pretty pure girl."

Hong Lang shrugged: "No matter how pure a girl is, she is used to make people happy."

The urge to beat this bastard up at the same time rose in everyone's hearts.

Zhou Yiyu peeked into the distance, only to see Ivy bowed her head silently, but she didn't know if she heard what she said.

The rest of the time quickly slipped away, and a large portal rose up in the open space of Rogge's camp.

The adventurers didn't hesitate anymore, and walked towards Chuan Songmen one after another.
