Prison Island

Chapter 136 Don’t Cry Later
Gao Xin looked at the whole audience with disdain, and no one made a move.

If he dares to be the first in the world, who will be the second?

Maybe Lingsha dares, this woman is incredibly brave.

But she is also bold and careful, and does not play the game like a reckless person.

She is domineering and keeps making bold statements, and she always treats everyone as a target for manipulation.

He even starts to fire random shots as if he never cares about making enemies with anyone.

But in fact, it is played quite carefully.

She gave away 8 points and expanded the prize pool, just to mess up the situation and make everyone scramble for it?
Is this woman mentally ill?

No, maybe it's just a clever way of playing it.

At the moment, she has no points for killing anyone, and she is very strong and has loyal teammates. Killing her will not benefit you at all and will also be very risky.

So all of a sudden, he was excluded from everyone's target.

Now all criticisms are directed towards Gao Xin.

But Gao Xin, didn’t you play it carefully?

He was so greedy that he took all the points for himself.

He went to the extreme and even took away the children's table that was only 1 point. He ate everything up!

It may seem like a reckless move, but in fact, this is the best choice.

He is either not greedy at all, or if he is greedy, he will be greedy to the point of exploding.

Right now, the situation is at a stalemate, and the reason for all this entanglement is that other people have no points left.

Those with high scores will be the target of public criticism and will be gathered together and annihilated.

But what if it is a monopoly?
Everyone got zero points, and one even got negative 5 points. How fucked up is that?
Gao Xin monopolized 22 points, directly cutting off the bargaining chips for others to distribute the benefits.

In this game, there is no money transfer, and the only way to share the money is through gambling.

When multiple people bet on a result correctly, everyone shares the prize pool.

If Gao Xin did not take all the spoils but left some points outside, then others would gamble around these points.

For example, Gao Xin spared Steel Axe and Iron Hands 1 point in order not to offend them.

Now, we will form at least a three-person team based on these two 1 points.

In the first stage, they collectively duel with Gao Xin, and the one who finally harvests the head becomes the executioner and gets 20 points.

Then in the second stage, another duel was held, and the executioner put 19 points on the betting, deliberately betting wrong, and adding the points to the prize pool.

Since the executioner kept 1 point for himself, he became the third party who owned 1 point.

In the third stage, another duel will be held, and all three players will bet their points on a tie, and the duel will end peacefully and the money will be shared.

Each person gets 6 points, and 1 point is in the prize pool.

After that, they can continue to distribute. For example, someone can add another point to the pool, making it a 1-point prize pool, giving the remaining two people an extra point.

Depending on their strength, some people can get more and some can get less.

That depends on how the team discusses it.

There can be many kinds of games involved, and even betrayers may appear.

For example, in the second stage, the executioner may keep 20 points for himself and not add them to the prize pool.

But it doesn’t matter, the dead Gao Xin is a role model.

A team with its own core interests has already been formed, and there are many people who want to share the money, so just bring one more person in.

Who betrayed? Then treat the betrayer as Gao Xin, kill him again, and repeat the above process.

Anyway, there is plenty of time, the team has been formed, and we will work together until the benefits are distributed!
No matter how you bargain, negotiate, or distribute.

This discussion is all about the two players with 1 point and has nothing to do with Gao Xin.

Gao Xin is just the cake, the one that is divided, the fish on the table.

The only strategy to save his life was that when a group of people surrounded him, Gao Xin would directly put his points into the prize pool, give up points to save his life, and make himself the third person to share the money.

And even this depends on other people's mood, because whether to take him to play or not is entirely up to others.

If the team talks well, Gao Xin must die.

Similarly, the more players with points who remain, the more dangerous Gao Xin will be, because the new team will be stronger.

If Gao Xin had chosen to take only 12 points from the first handicap, and in order not to offend anyone, he would have left the two children's table uneaten.

If Viper, Rocket Head, Steel Axe and Iron Hand, a total of four players with points, are left outside.

That would be even more terrible. Gao Xin would definitely die.

It can be said that the so-called big and small corrupt officials before the Black Knight were all seeking death.

Small greed leads to small death, big greed leads to big death!
If you don't eat other people's share, you won't offend others? It's a joke. A man is innocent but guilty of possessing a treasure.

Gao Xin should either not be greedy or continue to hide.

Or they can be extremely greedy and directly monopolize the market, leaving everyone with nothing and cutting off their capital for unity.

"Where are you? Come and duel me."

"Why aren't you taking action? Viper, why don't you take the lead?"

Gao Xin waited for a while, but when no one answered, he turned off the organ overclocking.

He sneered, "You didn't dare to fight hard in the first round, when will you fight hard? When you are about to die?"

Gao Xin shook his head. As long as the benefits were sufficient, he would choose to risk his life when he was at the peak of his career, because this was the time when he had the greatest chance of success.

But most people in the world, on the contrary, prefer to fight to the death only when they are about to die.

Even though I know that this game will be a fight sooner or later, I still want to delay it as much as possible.

It seems as if everyone has a procrastination problem when it comes to working hard, and they only work like crazy when the countdown starts.

Gao Xin's words were full of mockery, but when others heard them, they did not feel mocking.

Instead, I was thinking, yes, why should I fight for my life in the first round?

They have no points now and can only rely on fighting.

Just keep killing until there is only one person left? Raise a Gu?
This game shouldn't have come to this point so quickly. The best option now is to start a second round of questions and answers, and for everyone to pair up and earn another round of points. This is what's important.

Once everyone has a share, we can divide the cake, and it won’t be too late to kill Gao Xin then.

"Brother Tai Sui, I'll go up first." The swamp crocodile was the first to break the silence.

His duel is over, and he must leave the arena quickly, otherwise he will be killed after one minute.

Gao Xin asked him, "Do you still keep your word?"

Swamp Croc nodded, "Of course, I will get rid of the viper."

Viper had a gloomy expression on the second floor.

Fortunately, the swamp crocodile said again: "But I need to rest for a while. My suggestion is that everyone go into the room now and start the second round."

"If there is any grudge or resentment, we can resolve it during the next intermission."

Gao Xin shrugged: "I can do anything. Don't look at me. I'm waiting for someone to duel."

As he said that, he looked at Zero Kill.

Everyone also looked at Lingsha. The only person who might kill Gao Xin first without any hesitation was Lingsha.

She has loyal teammates who can surround Gao Xin without any distribution of interests, ensuring that Gao Xin is killed and gets 22 points.

Then when the two of them face the remaining six people, she will be more confident.

Even Gao Xin, a lone wolf, can make everyone confused at this moment, let alone her and Lin An?
She gave away points voluntarily. There was already such a huge jackpot pool. It is very likely that she wanted to fatten the pigs now and then kill them.

But Lingsha smiled and said, "Only 22 points... Stop wasting time and start the second round."

As she said that, she asked Lin An to go upstairs. After waiting silently for two more minutes, she also went upstairs.

Gao Xin was the only one left on the court, and he scored 22 points without any effort.

"Come up quickly, let's start the second round." Everyone urged.

Gao Xin was still on the field and asked, "Are you really not going to duel me, Black Knight?"

Everyone was ready to let him go and entered the second round, but he was still provoking.

And he also named and provoked.

Everyone looked at the Black Knight. If there was anyone who was eager to score points, it was this guy.

The Black Knight was originally black, so he couldn't tell what his expression was. He angrily said, "Stop talking nonsense. Do you really think we dare not kill you? We'll let you go this time."

He was very annoyed. He wanted to get points very much. He really wanted to duel with Gao Xin without thinking twice and do it first!

But...but after weighing it up, he felt that he could not beat Gao Xin.

He had fought with Gao Xin, and the opponent injured his heart with three moves.

Even though it was just a regular fight, he still had his unique skills and base, but he might not win.

Furthermore, as a person with negative five points, others probably would not let him inherit Gao Xin and might even interfere.

After all, the points stored with Gao Xin were 22 points. When stored with him, it became 17 points.

"You can be so arrogant now, but I'll make you cry soon!" The Black Knight looked fierce but was actually weak.

Gao Xin smiled and said, "I should be the one saying this."

"Don't cry later."

As he said this he slowly went upstairs.

The Black Knight understood what he meant. As the only player with negative points, he would be doomed if the next round of question setters ranked the questions correctly.

"Do you think you can still get the job of setting the questions? Anyone can be the question setter this round, except you!"

Everyone agreed that no one would end the game, otherwise they would have just started fighting for points.

At this time, everyone has zero or negative points, and only Gao Xin wants to end the game.

He has 22 points, and if he becomes the person who sets the questions, he will be in trouble.

"Taisui, I'll share a room with you," the swamp crocodile suddenly suggested, walking up behind him.

Gao Xin smiled: "Are you afraid that I will snatch the person who asks the questions away?"

Swamp Crocodile ignored this and said with a smile: "Aren't we allies? Buddy, I believe you this time."

Having said that, everyone understood that the main purpose of the swamp crocodile doing this was definitely to prevent Gao Xin from snatching the person who set the question.

Although everyone will rush to grab it in this round, Gao Xin has a very small chance of getting it, but it’s better to be safe than sorry.

As long as the swamp crocodile was in the same room with him, guarding the door and blocking the front, Gao Xin would have no chance of snatching it.

The swamp crocodile is still Gao Xin's ally for the time being, and he is the only one who can do this.

"It doesn't matter."

Gao Xin smiled and walked into Room G first, followed closely by Swamp Crocodile.

The others also returned to their rooms, which were basically the same rooms as before, except that Iron Hand left Room A to Steel Axe and went to Room I himself.

Rocket left Room C to Viper and went to Room E next door.

At this point, A is Steel Axe, B is Lin An, C is Viper, D is Zero Kill, E is Rocket Head, F is Black Knight, G is Gao Xin and Swamp Crocodile, and I is Iron Hand.

This time, no one wants to share a room.

If they share a room, it means two people with the same number are competing for the same perfect match.

This is naturally not good, after all, everyone wants to be in the first tier this round and wants to get 4 points.

The next gambling game is the key. The players with 4 points will be the dominant ones in dividing the high scores, and the players with low scores can be excluded from the gambling game.

"The second round of tacit questions and answers begins. The person who rings the bell first will be the one who asks the question."

As soon as the words fell, everyone rushed out of the room.

The swamp crocodile was no exception. He had been stuck in the doorway and was the first to rush out.

Only Gao Xin didn't move, as if he had given up the fight.

"Swish!" Lin An was extremely fast. His boots were very special, making him the fastest man in the entire venue.

"its mine!"

Seeing that Lin An was about to arrive, Viper slid over and slashed with both swords.

The same situation also occurred in other angles, with people fighting to be the one who sets the questions.

"clang!"

The bell rang again.

Everyone was startled and looked at Lin An, who was the closest and had already arrived at the table.

But Lin An was also surprised. He hadn't touched it yet, so why was the bell ringing?

He looked down and saw a white arrow shot into the bell. "What! Archery works?" Lin An frowned.

"Impossible! This is just a projection." Iron Hand jumped out, raised Cyber's arm, and with a bang, he fired at the bell.

However, the shell went straight through the bell and hit the wall.

The bell is just a projection, not a physical entity, and inherently requires identity verification.

In other words, it really requires physical touch and cannot be replaced by long-range weapons.

"Yes...it's Tai Sui's arrow." The swamp crocodile saw it most clearly. The arrow was shot from behind him, passed by his shoulder, and hit the bell in an instant.

"what?"

Everyone was shocked, especially the Black Knight, whose eyes turned red.

"The person who set the question is in trouble! The rest of you must return to your room within five seconds. Those who violate the rules will be killed." Laguil reminded.

Everyone stared at Gao Xin, who walked out leisurely and stood in front of the table.

The others had no choice but to retreat back to their rooms, looking extremely unhappy.

"It's over, the game is about to end..." Everyone was very unwilling.

Even Lingsha was shocked. She wanted to continue playing, so she gave away all the points on purpose. She didn't expect Gao Xin to be the one who set the questions.

She wanted to control the whole situation, but this move really caught her off guard and was beyond her expectations.

As for the Black Knight, he was really about to cry, holding the white arrow in his hand.

"This...this is bone..." he shouted with red eyes, his voice distorted.

Only then did everyone notice the meteor crossbow in Gao Xin's hand.

"Bones?" Iron Hand hammered the door frame angrily: "Damn it, is this a man-eating crossbow?"

"This is a biological weapon that will consume human flesh, blood and bones and turn them into ammunition."

"Grass!"

"Fake!"

Everyone cursed and remembered that there was such a weapon.

This is a notoriously useless thing. Is this the one?

How can someone use such a weapon? Damn it!

"Everyone, if we play too much, people will die. Why don't we end it early?" Gao Xin said with a faint smile.

Steel Axe said anxiously: "Fuck, he really wants to end the game!"

Lingsha calmed down and said in a deep voice: "It's useless! As long as everyone hides their numbers, he won't be able to answer correctly."

Everyone nodded, this is the truth.

In order to end the game, the cooperation of most people is needed. Unless the person who sets the questions has a third eye, the game will not end as long as everyone hides the numbers.

But here comes the problem. In this round everyone is hiding numbers, and the difficulty of pairing will skyrocket.

Most people originally planned to answer the questions carefully and find their partners in this round.

Then they could steadily get 4 points. During the halftime break, people with 4 points would team up together to brush Gao Xin and divide the prize pool.

But now it’s good, Gao Xin is the one who sets the questions.

If everyone dares to do this, he can end the game.

Everyone must answer the questions randomly and cannot disclose their numbers.

Even after answering the questions, you can only communicate with others privately, which makes it more difficult to tell if someone is lying.

It's hard to pursue a perfect match anymore, it's good enough if it doesn't explode.

The final result of this round is likely to be chaotic, with some people failing, some getting 1 point, some getting 2 points, and a very small number getting 4 points.

And this is the chaotic situation that Gao Xin needs. Different points mean different classes.

"There is another way. Let's all go together, cut off his hands and feet, suppress him, and prevent him from sorting!" Viper roared viciously.

Gao Xin sneered: "Haha, I can also sort in the room."

Viper exclaimed, "Impossible, the sorting must use a round table!"

Gao Xin smiled: "You sound so serious. Could it be that you have also been a question setter?"

These words choked Viper.

The rules do not explicitly state that the answers must be sorted on the round table. They only state that the person asking the question will sort the ten answers once, and the game is over if the sorting is correct.

Maybe robots can be used. Whether it can be queued in the room, they can only know by trying.

And Gao Xin was the only one present who had been the question setter.

At that time, Gao Xin hides in the room and closes the door. Are we going to bet that he can't be sorted inside?
The Black Knight said fiercely: "Don't be afraid, I will just break into his room when the time comes!"

Gao Xin smiled and said, "I'm going to ask a question."

He immediately typed in his own question.

Before the question was finished, Gao Xin flashed into Room H.

With a bang, the door was closed tightly.

At this point, there was one person in each room, and no one was sharing a room.

"Question: What is the code name, rank, and position of the most powerful Yakuza warrior you have ever seen?"

Everyone was in their rooms, and were somewhat surprised to see the problem.

This question does have multiple answers. After all, the Yakuza warriors that each person has seen are different.

Some people have seen more, some have seen less, and some may have only seen the younger brother.

But it doesn’t matter, just say it’s the most amazing thing you’ve ever seen.

A-A Steel Axe hesitated for a long time before answering: "Flower Spear, Yamaguchi Mio, Hina Tiger, Yakuza President."

Gao Xin smiled and at the same time drew his number: 6.

After a while, Lin An from number B replied: "King Cobra Suzuki Masamoto, the young elephant, the leader of the Black Hand of the Yakuza headquarters."

Viper in Room C answered instinctively, "Tiger Shark Fujiwara Tomohisa, Quasi-Elephant King, Yakuza Advisor."

Raguel said directly: "The answer is wrong."

Swamp Crocodile roared: "You are dreaming, Fujiwara is not from the Yakuza, not even an advisor, he is the captain of our inland black hand team in the Sea King Port."

Viper curled his lips and changed his answer to: "Old Ghost Yun Zhongtianyi, Yaxiang, the elder of the Yakuza family."

The answer to the question of zero kills was the same afterwards.

However, Rocket Head and Black Knight seemed to have rarely been to Yamaguchi Village and had never met the powerful Yakuza figures.

He just said: "Explosion Boy Uraraka Ginmaru, Shintora, Captain of the First Division of the Yakuza Black Hand Group."

Gao Xin touched his chin, Uraraka?

I seem to have heard of it. Yes, when he was causing trouble in the hunting group, he ran out of the village and encountered an ambush by heavy troops.

This guy showed up and was almost killed by heavy firepower.

Then the swamp crocodile also answered Yun Zhongtianyi.

When he arrived at Gaoxin, he answered casually: "Beauty Rousi, young tiger, Yakuza black hand cadre."

He remembered that Rousi often called herself a beauty, and he didn't expect that she was right.

It was the turn of Iron Hand from Room I. This guy was very decisive and said directly: "I have never seen any of them. I don't know."

"wrong answer."

Tie Shou said, "I have indeed never seen anyone from the Yakuza. I will not answer this question."

The Black Knight laughed and said, "Haha, his question is problematic. Some of us have never seen it, so we can't answer it at all."

"All rooms must complete the questions before the person who set the questions can rank them. Otherwise, he doesn't even have the right to rank them."

"This round of tacit question and answer will definitely not be completed!"

Everyone thought back and realized that this was indeed the rule.

[When all rooms have finished answering the questions, the questioner has five minutes to sort the ten answers.]

[If the player fails to complete the tacit understanding question and answer, the result will be announced after ten minutes... During this period, they can pair up...]

There is no penalty for not answering the questions, and AI will only answer the questions when there is no one in the room.

If you cannot complete the tacit understanding question and answer session, you will directly enter the pairing stage.

At this moment, Tie Shou was unable to answer, and it was doomed that Gao Xin could not end the game.

This is really a life-and-death cooperation, which means that when the game comes to the last round, all the survivors must cooperate, otherwise everyone will be wiped out.

Breaking into an occupied room would result in a severe electric shock. If a player with a negative score was still alive in the last round, he could refuse to answer any questions and stay in the room, dragging everyone down with him.

It's just annihilation anyway. To him, there is no difference whether he annihilates alone or with a group of people.

So they have to eliminate all the negative scorers in the penultimate round, otherwise everyone will die.

It was now the turn of the AI ​​in the last room to answer, and it called out the names of nine people in one breath.

Everyone was stunned. J is number 9.

Then No. 1 is happy, he just pairs up with the AI ​​and that’s it.

The Black Knight was overjoyed. He was number 1 this round, so he rushed out of the room and came to the table to pair up with the AI.

But Gao Xin came out and said, "Why are you so anxious? AI lied. I am number 9."

The Black Knight was stunned for a moment. Two numbers 9?
Then one of them must be lying.

It is possible that AI could lie, for example, if J is 10, it could deliberately report that it is 9.

But by the same token, Gao Xin may have lied and Gao Xin is actually 10.

The Black Knight's face turned pale. Damn, he has to choose between happiness and nothing else?
At this moment, the swamp crocodile frowned and said, "You are also number 9? How come... I am number 9!"

"What?" The Black Knight was stunned.

What's going on? Three 9s?

The Black Knight said with a dark face: "Don't mess with me, you two. Didn't you agree to kill Viper together? Why are you messing with me?"

“I’m really number 1!”

"It's that damn number 1 again!"

He was really panicked. He was cheated in the last round with number 1 and lost five points.

I really wanted to get 4 points this time, but I ended up being number 1 again. The most amazing thing was that three numbers 9 appeared.

My mentality suddenly exploded.

"Did you two enter Room G, so the numbers are the same?" the Black Knight asked hopefully.

Swamp Crocodile looked at Gao Xin and said, "No, when the numbers were drawn, I was the only one in the room. He drew numbers in other rooms."

The Black Knight bared his teeth and said, "Where did the three No. 9s come from? Two of you are lying!"

"No!" Something even more outrageous happened.

Ling Sha said sternly with a cold face: "They are all lying. I am number 9."

"Puff!" The black knight staggered back.

He pointed at these three people and was so anxious that sweat was about to come out of his eyes!

"You, you, you...you guys, are teaming up to mess with me, right?"

Others were also surprised. There were four number 9s on the field?
Gao Xin smiled and said, "You are number 1, what are you afraid of? If you are brave, just be with me."

"If you don't dare, then go find 8 or 7. Anyway, I'm number 9, so even if I don't match, I still get 2 points."

Tie Shou said coldly: "I don't want to be with him."

"Steel Axe, let's go into the room and talk privately."

Seeing this, Viper said to Rocket Head, "Come on, let's talk too."

Everyone formed groups and went into the room to exchange information.

Obviously, other numbers will try not to choose number 1, they will give priority to finding their perfect match.

Once No. 1 does not choose No. 9 and tries to snatch someone else's pairing, a series of effects will occur.

Like a domino effect, it caused almost everyone to lose their perfect match.

At this moment, the Black Knight was left out in the middle of the field, his eyes red.

Facing 9999, he really wanted to cry.

……

PS: Sorry. I did remember the rocket head wrong. I took a 30-hour bus ride and finally arrived in Kunming. I brought my whole family with me. I don’t know if we will be poisoned.
