Chapter 1085 Challenger(2/2)
Those who reacted quickly had already quietly found someone to start the duel when the first game between Brother Jue and Mr. Jing was settled.
As for these "slow-paced" guys now, or rather... "the vast majority of people", they only reacted after watching the settlement of the second game, and they eagerly challenged each other, and everyone wanted to be the first to guess the solution.
Scenes like this are common for men in suits and sunglasses, and they are also familiar with how to deal with them.
"Everyone, please calm down. There is no need to argue. The two who need to show off please come to the table first."
"You two, please come to the table."
"Be calm and please come to me."
Under the persuasion of the men in suits, those who had disputes came to the table one after another. Then...the men in suits took out their tablet devices and retrieved the real-time video to determine who "said" first.
Challenging the declaration.
…………
on the other hand……
"Hmph... Even if you win this time." After Mr. Jing took back the 7,868 US dollars, he said to Brother Jue viciously, "We have a similar relationship..."
"No more." Feng Bujue interrupted without letting the other party finish his harsh words. "People like you... are destined to be unable to leave this ship tonight."
"What did you say..." Mr. Jing became a little angry and raised his arms and sleeves and stepped forward, as if he wanted to use force.
Suddenly, when he rushed in front of Brother Jue, a chill hit his whole body.
At that moment, Mr. Jing was not only unable to speak anymore, but even breathing became very difficult.
He suddenly had a feeling that what was under the strange crow mask... seemed not to be a human being, but some kind of more terrifying, unknown creature...
"Whether you agree with what I said or not, I still have to say it." Seeing that the other party stopped talking, Feng Bujue continued coldly, "If you are not convinced by the loss, I don't mind talking again later.
I’ll bet you one round, or even two or three rounds, until I win all your money.”
Mr. Jing did not answer anymore, but retreated...
"But now..." Feng Bujue said, slowly turning around.
At this moment, a tall man wearing a golden crying face mask was already standing behind Brother Jue.
"I've kept you waiting for a long time." Feng Bujue looked at the other party and said following the trend.
"Haha...it's only a minute or two." The tall man responded with a smile.
The two conversations between them sounded like ordinary polite words to others, and they seemed to have no beginning or end.
But in fact, these two simple "hellos" are not only a test of each other, but also a demonstration of each other's strength.
Feng Bujue's "I've kept you waiting for a long time" is intended to mean "I know you have been behind me for a long time, waiting to challenge me."
The tall man's calm response and his act of "challenging the man in the crow mask" also showed that he was by no means an easy person.
"Then... let's start." Feng Bujue continued.
"Okay." The tall man said, then he took a step forward and walked boldly towards the place where Mr. Jing was standing before.
"Referee, I have challenged the gentleman wearing the crow mask." As he walked, he turned to say hello to the referee.
When the referee heard this, he glanced at Brother Jue; although he was wearing sunglasses at this time, he could feel that... he had a questioning look.
"Why are you looking at me?" Feng Bujue responded, "This is my second duel. I cannot refuse the challenge until this one is completed."
"In that case, then... please ask the question first." The referee continued.
Feng Bujue shrugged, took out another piece of white paper from the cart, and spread it on the table; still without thinking much, he wrote a set of numbers.
This time, when the referee took the "answer sheet", he was already prepared to see "1456" again, but... Brother Jue's answer this time was more normal, which was "953724".
"Huh? There are no repeated numbers..." the referee immediately thought, "but...if you think about it carefully, under the premise that all the numbers are bound to be tried in the first nine rounds, deliberately not using repeated numbers seems to be a good choice.
After all, 'which six numbers' is no longer a problem from the tenth round onwards. Once the numbers are determined, there are more non-repetitive combinations."
Thinking of this, the referee put the answer into his jacket pocket, and then said to the tall man: "Please declare the round."
"Haha..." The man chuckled twice, "Eighteen rounds."
"What?" Mr. Jing, who was standing aside and had not walked far away, couldn't help but screamed when he heard this.
"Hmph...what's all the fuss about?" The tall man looked at Mr. Jing and felt funny, "By the way...why are you still here?"
When he asked this, Mr. Jing was not happy: "What's wrong? Can't I just stand here and watch for a while?"
"Don't you understand?" the tall man replied, "Now... we are racing against time..." He raised his finger and pointed at Feng Bujue, "That Mr. Crow Mouth did not hesitate to give away time in order to buy time.
Why don’t you know how to cherish your thousands of dollars?”
"What did you say?" Mr. Jing asked suspiciously, "When did he give me thousands of dollars?"
"Oh?" When the tall man heard this, he laughed again, "What? Don't you even know the most basic things like 'in which rounds you can escape'?" He shook his head and continued,
"Huh... no wonder people say you can't leave tonight."
"You guys, what are you talking about!" Mr. Jing's anger was aroused again, "If you have something to say, say it clearly, don't beat around the bush!"
"Alas..." the tall man sighed and explained, "Then let me give you an example... If that gentleman just played with you for a while, for example... you wait until the nineteenth round to suddenly surrender, and you
Calculate the difference between the penalty and the stake you paid at that time."
This kind of mental arithmetic that can be completed by primary school students can still be completed by Mr. Jing. He looked down at the formula on the rules and immediately did the math.
Ten seconds later, Mr. Jing’s face suddenly changed, and he murmured: “The 18 times the ante of 680 US dollars was... 12240... and the penalty for surrendering in the 19th round was 11492... I... not only did I not win any money,
Still lost by 748?”
"That's right." The tall man continued, "However, you still have the 1,000 US dollars for betting on the round, so you can still earn 252 US dollars (because the base bet for the betting round is fixed at 1,000, so when Mr. Jing guesses the solution, he will not know it.
In the nineteenth round, it is still a slight loss, and you have to wait until the twentieth round to make a profit), but it is far worse than 7868?" He paused for half a second, and then said, "Then if...he drags it to the second
What if you surrender after ten rounds? You don’t have to forget it, let me tell you...even if you include the 1,000 US dollars for betting on the round, you will still lose 40 US dollars..." He smiled (although the other party could not see it) and said, "This...
...is the so-called 'escape round'; for the party who sets the question first, this is very important, but you have not grasped it well... When you are the party who sets the question, if you are one or two rounds earlier,
Surrender before the other party raises the stakes, and even if you can't win much money, at least you won't lose more than 30,000."
"I...I..." Mr. Jing bared his teeth regretfully under the mask and muttered depressedly, "If I could have been one round earlier..."
"There is no such assumption." The tall man interrupted him, "I advise you to find a place quickly and calculate the comparison of fines and benefits in each round...and then while everyone still has to accept the challenge
, finish your 'second duel', and as for what we are going to play here..." He said, looking at Brother Jue again, "It is not a game that people of your level can intervene in...
