"Yes, it's strength. If my guess is correct, I think Curse must have evaluated the strength of our sixth and seventh teams before entering the mission. The final conclusion is that our overall strength is stronger than the seventh team! "
"It is precisely because the comprehensive strength of our sixth team is stronger than that of the seventh team that the curse did not let the two teams enter the mission at the same time, but deliberately staggered the entry time of the two teams. The weaker one entered early, and the stronger one Arriving late is a kind of proof, a metaphor that distinguishes the strength of a team."
Huh?
Not to mention, after listening to Singer's explanation, on the opposite side, except for Wynonna who had already realized it, Kieran, Eames and even Amir, who had been maintaining a calm posture, all looked enlightened, and then they all understood. Singer meant what he said, and Kieran opened his eyes wide and said instinctively the next moment he understood: "The seventh execution team came an hour earlier than us. Doesn't that mean..."
"Yes." After taking over Kieran's hesitant words, Singer nodded and announced the truth: "Yes, in the eyes of the curse, the overall strength of our sixth team is higher than that of the seventh team!"
I understand, I understand completely. No wonder Singer didn’t show much nervousness at first when he learned about the advance entry of the seventh team. Instead, he smiled and said that he should be more nervous than them. It turns out that’s what happened. In fact, it’s also true. , unless the seventh team is all idiots, they will definitely care and find that the time of the two teams is different. Compared with them, their own entry time is later.
However……
As soon as he finished speaking, before Kieran and others could look relaxed, Singer suddenly changed the subject, and then continued to add with a serious face: "This is true, but we don't need to be happy, even in the eyes of the curse. We are indeed higher than the opponent in terms of comprehensive strength, but it is only comprehensive strength. In fact, it does not rule out that the other team also has people with special abilities or extremely powerful people, not to mention that the so-called strong is only slightly stronger. Don’t forget that the opponent is only one hour ahead of us. One hour is too short, so short that it can be ignored. Do you know what this means? This means that in the judgment mechanism of the curse, the two teams are almost the same. The strength is basically at the same level.”
No one had ever dreamed that the captain, who seemed calm just now, would suddenly change his expression and become serious. Later, he explained and reminded them in a serious tone. The result was positive. After receiving the reminder, everyone's relaxation disappeared and was replaced by caution and seriousness. , almost everyone showed a solemn expression. The reason why I use almost to describe it is because there are still exceptions. There is still one person who maintains a disdainful expression throughout the whole process. The other person is none other than the blond man.
As mentioned above, in order to dispel everyone's relaxed mentality, Singer glanced at everyone with serious eyes. However, when his eyes turned to the blond man, for some reason, Singer's expression changed slightly, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.
……………
Balance is the most valuable thing in the world. A relative balance is conducive to the stable development of a group or a political system. The logic is indeed correct, but for human beings, people are often unwilling to balance because most people are selfish. This is just like in reality. The more the controllers of political power stand at the pinnacle of power, the less they want someone to restrict them.
"Then what should we do next?" After fully understanding the meaning of Singer's words, Eames shook his strong muscles and asked casually. Kieran and others who had the same thoughts also looked at Singer.
Obviously, from the behavior and reactions of these people, it can be seen that they regard Singer as their backbone, and only Singer follows his lead. In fact, it is right. Anyone who can be the captain in the cursed space, in the final analysis, is not weak, and can be in hell. Being the captain of the Samsara Station means that this person has performed and completed two assessment tasks successively. This is both a symbol of strength and a manifestation of wisdom. This kind of person is qualified to lead the team. At the same time, this is why Singer can make everyone The main reason for belief is that after all, everyone knows that the cursed space is equivalent to hell. If you want to survive in hell for a long time, following the wise man is the only correct choice at present.
Therefore, facing Eames' natural instinctive inquiry and seeing everyone looking at him, Singer smiled. He was no longer peeping at the blond man, but said something calmly and calmly the next moment everyone looked at him: "Go upstairs, go to our room first, and then..."
"Find some time to get in touch with the seventh team."
Meanwhile, on the 5th floor.
"The sixth execution team is stronger than us!"
In the living room, there was an obvious tension and frustration, and He Fei announced to everyone the analysis and guess he had just made.
Yes, everyone, including He Fei, has now learned about the arrival of the sixth team at the hotel. The news was also thanks to He Fei. In order to get the information as soon as possible, He Fei went upstairs He bribed Manager Liu with money, and sure enough, as the sixth team arrived at the hotel, Manager Liu, who knew how to use money to do things, immediately contacted He Fei after the other party went upstairs, and told He Fei the full information over the phone, even if He also leaked some information about the seventh team to the other party under Singer's financial bribery.
The result was certain. After receiving the news that the sixth team had now checked into the hotel, everyone, whether they were veterans or newcomers, began to get nervous, and the nervousness was justified. It was a strange team, and they had no idea whether the other party was well-intentioned or malicious. , understanding is almost zero. It can be imagined that facing a completely unfamiliar executive team composed entirely of foreigners, everyone would be lying if they said they were not nervous. Therefore, after receiving the phone call from Manager Liu, He Fei could not help but feel nervous. Worried, after all, this is the first time they have contacted other teams, or the first time they have performed a supernatural mission with other teams.
Of course, I was nervous. Just when everyone was in trouble, He Fei looked at the time, and then announced a piece of news that made everyone even more uneasy, a personal conjecture that He Fei had already had but had not disclosed at first...
That is, there is a gap between the two teams. In short, it can be understood that the strength of the sixth executive team is higher than that of the seventh team!
"What? You said that the opponent's team is stronger than ours? Brother, can you tell me how you know?" Sure enough, as soon as He Fei finished speaking, everyone in the living room was shocked. Except for Zhao Ping, who showed no reaction, the rest Everyone was more or less surprised. Peng Hu was the first to express doubts and asked the doubts in his mind on behalf of the executor who didn't understand yet. Facing the inquiry, he saw that everyone was looking at him one after another, which was different from speaking. He Fei, a man with glasses who likes to be mysterious, was more direct. He immediately touched his chin and said in deep thought: "It's very simple. Zhao Ping had said before that there was a time difference between our team and the sixth team, and then Kong Ling asked why our team was faster than the sixth team. Six teams entered the mission early? In fact, this issue is not complicated. In the final analysis, it is about balance, which is the curse of the balance mechanism deliberately created for the two teams."
(Is it a balancing mechanism? Could it be that...)
Hearing this, Xu Shi vaguely understood something. Tang Meng's eyebrows moved slightly, and Cheng Ying's face showed surprise. However, in order to take care of the newcomers and other executors who did not understand, he paused. He Fei continued: "The so-called balance mechanism refers to It is a certain method commonly used by curses. Let me give you a simple example, just like the supernatural missions we usually perform. With a few exceptions, whenever the mission starts, the beetle will often not show up to attack at the beginning of the mission. A certain amount of safety time will be left for the executor. This is obviously a rule restriction of the curse, but have you ever thought about the purpose of this move? Why is the curse set up in this way? The answer is simple, that is balance, in order to give the executor a chance to survive. It’s an intentional balancing act.”
"Ah! I understand! What you mean, Lao He, is that the reason why the curse prevents us and the sixth team from entering the mission world at the same time is actually applying the balance mechanism between the executor and the worm. Since the relationship between people and worms If this can happen between teams, why can’t it happen between teams? Am I right?”
Not to mention, as a Taoist wizard who is often praised by his master, as soon as He Fei finished speaking, Chen Xiaoyao easily understood what He Fei meant, understood the logic of cause and effect from the examples given by the college students, and then followed closely. When explaining the truth, not only him, but also Peng Hu, Li Tianheng and Chen Shuihong, who had been listening attentively, also showed signs of understanding. It can be said that without He Fei clarifying the answer, just giving examples has already made the newcomers Everyone outside suddenly realized, and He Fei indeed nodded in approval after hearing Chen Xiaoyao's understanding: "Well, that's what I meant, it's nothing more than a mechanism, or the curse has a symbolic meaning. By staggering the entry time of the two teams, we can imply the strength of both sides.”
When it came to the level of strength, as expected, everyone's thoughts shifted. Tang Meng was the first to mention the key point and made He Fei's deeper meaning known to the public: "If this is really the case, then the curse must have evaluated us in advance before the mission started. and the comprehensive strength of the sixth team, the final conclusion is that the comprehensive strength of the sixth team is superior to ours."
As mentioned above, relying on his increasingly sophisticated logical thinking, Tang Meng announced the in-depth answer on behalf of He Fei. The answer was announced, but it was precisely because the answer was announced and everyone understood the logic of cause and effect. Then, everyone's expressions changed, and they all After learning that even the curse admitted that the other team was stronger than his own, his face turned pale and he was obviously worried. This is certain and inevitable. The reason is just as described at the beginning, because the two teams do not know each other. Understand that, combined with the complexity of human nature, unless you are a god with a thorough understanding of the heavens, you will never know how the other person will view you, and what kind of existence you will have in the eyes of the other person?
The above description seems to be a lot, but if it is described simply, everyone's current concern and reaction can be summarized in one sentence, that is...
When one is strong and the other is weak, it is always the weak who is on tenterhooks.
This is the helplessness of the weak, a kind of innate psychological fear of the weak towards the strong.
but……
"Wait, don't be nervous, I haven't finished speaking yet."
"Huh?"
As the saying goes, there are no absolutes in anything. Just when all the executors were on tenterhooks, suddenly, He Fei, who had been frowning just now, spoke again, and then added an additional supplement in a completely different way to everyone's curious gaze. Yu mentioned a few details in his previous indifferent tone: "Combined with the curse balance mechanism, I admit that the sixth team entered the mission later than ours. Although this means that the other party's comprehensive strength is superior to ours, But! Please don’t forget the specific entry time of the other party. From the time we entered the hotel to the time the other party entered the hotel, there was only one hour. One hour is not a long time. Do you know what this means? This means Even if the sixth team is stronger than us, its actual strength is limited, and it may even be just a little stronger than us."
"Huh? Why didn't I think of that?"
"Yes, yes, Brother He's words woke me up. When I think about it carefully, it is really like this. You must know that this supernatural mission lasted for three days. Unexpectedly, the other party arrived only one hour later than us. One hour and Three days is too short in comparison, so short that it can be ignored.”
"Yes, this makes sense. Since the curse deliberately uses first come, first served to imply strength and weakness, then the interval between first come, last served is not a kind of distinction? If this is the case, doesn't it mean that the sixth team is not much different from us? Even if it is comprehensive Their strength is higher than ours, but it’s actually only a little bit higher. The two sides are basically on the same level.”
What does it mean to clear the clouds and see the blue sky? This is called seeing the blue sky through the clouds. After hearing He Fei's additional supplement, the expressions of the executioners who were still pale in the living room changed again. They were no longer on tenterhooks, but secretly relaxed in the next moment when the group was stunned. , and immediately agreed with He Fei's point of view, yes, they will indeed be afraid of a team whose comprehensive strength far exceeds their own, but they do not need to be afraid of a team whose strength is comparable to their own. Facing a team that is only slightly stronger than themselves For some executive teams, even if they care about reality, they are not afraid. At most, they are just afraid. This is like a lion meeting a tiger. It is true that there is some gap in strength between the two, but the gap is minimal. And this is why everyone The biggest reason to relax.
"call!"
After learning that the sixth team did not have the strength to crush his own team, as expected, Chen Shuihong, who had been worried before and was afraid of being unlucky, took a long breath. Like Chen Shuihong, Li Tianheng, who was also a coward under normal circumstances, also unconsciously touched his hand. Chests were filled with joy, and others were more or less relieved. It is also worth mentioning that if most people relaxed after listening to He Fei's explanation, then Peng Hu, Cheng Ying and Chen Xiaoyao did not. He was relaxed throughout the whole process and never showed any nervous expression from beginning to end. Among them, Chen Xiaoyao was the most relaxed and maintained a smile almost from the beginning to the end. Obviously, as a strong person who can fight one against ten, the three of them may be afraid However, they are not afraid of the executors who are also human beings. Of course, this is not the point. The point is that He Fei sees everyone's reactions.
Based on careful consideration, He Fei reminded: "Attention, please don't relax too much. Although the six teams do not have the strength to crush us, there is a saying that is good, you must not have the intention to harm others, and guard against others." Heart is indispensable.”
"Well, don't worry, He Fei. They all came here from the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Everyone must know this." Seeing He Fei's special reminder, everyone nodded. Li Tianheng, who was too scared to speak at first, was also there as expected. After regaining his composure, he nodded in agreement, indicating that everyone must be aware of it, but...
"Right!" As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of other issues again. Before He Fei could speak, he scratched his head. Li Tianheng changed the topic and asked curiously: "Since the sixth team has also checked into the hotel, what about us? What should we do next? Both parties are performing tasks in the hotel together..."
Li Tianheng hesitated to speak the next words, but He Fei instantly understood the young man's meaning, and the others also understood clearly. After hearing this, the crowd fell into silence. The reason for the silence was very simple, that is, for the first time, including He Fei, They really don't know what to do when they are performing a team task. Indeed, judging from the fact that the other party is also in the hotel, it is certain that the mission goal of the sixth team is probably the same as ours, to survive in the hotel for 3 days or to solve the supernatural. Incidents, but the execution methods are definitely different. After all, each team has its own behavior style. If you contact them rashly, it may affect the other party and cause unnecessary trouble to your own side, so...
Because I really didn't know what to do, I pondered for a moment. Except for Zhao Ping who lowered his head the whole time and seemed to be thinking, Cheng Ying looked at He Fei, Peng Hu looked at He Fei, Chen Xiaoyao, Li Tianheng, Chen Shuihong and Tang Meng all looked at He Fei. Fei noticed that everyone was looking at him. He Fei knew what everyone meant. These people obviously put the decision-making power in their own hands and planned to let themselves make the decision. Who made you the captain? Since you are the captain, it's up to you to make the decision, we are too lazy to worry about it.
(My day, do you just believe me that much? At least I can give you some suggestions.)
Seeing this scene, He Fei couldn't help but smile bitterly, and then secretly lamented that his trust level in the team was ridiculously high. Although it was a good thing to be trusted by the team members, this blind trust also made him very stressed after all...
With the bitterness in his heart, He Fei did not make an immediate decision. Instead, he turned his head to one side under the gaze of everyone, and looked at the bespectacled man whom he had always regarded as his adviser. Inspired by He Fei, the others also turned their heads to look. Facing the man, he didn't know whether he noticed the crowd's gaze or thought of something during his meditation. Opposite the sofa, Zhao Ping raised his head to finish his thinking, then said something to He Fei and everyone present, and mentioned something that made everyone stunned. 'Reasonable' advice:
"I'm hungry, let's go out to eat."
………
First of all, it is certain that Zhao Ping's suggestion is very reasonable. From entering the mission to checking into the hotel, until this moment in the afternoon, except for breakfast, everyone has not eaten anything the rest of the time. Even with the blessing of the executor's identity, it can After all, the executor is a human being, and humans always have to eat and drink, so naturally, under Zhao Ping's abrupt but ultimately reasonable suggestion, everyone walked out of the room and rushed to the hall.
However...
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, when everyone walked out of the room, Zhao Ping moved slowly and was at the end, and then grabbed an executor who was about to go out without anyone noticing.
"Huh? Mr. Zhao? What are you..."
"There is something you need to do, because you are the most suitable. Of course, you can also choose to refuse. I will never force it."
5 minutes later, the lobby on the fifth floor of Alpha Hotel.
"This is a tip, take it and spend it."
"Ah! Is this so much? Thank you, thank you sir! Do you need any other services?"
"No more for now. I'll call you if I need anything. By the way, tell the other waiters not to bother you unless we take the initiative to greet you."
"Understood, sir, you and your friends can feel free to dine!".
As a high-end hotel with a high star rating, the Alfa Hotel is indeed worthy of the word high-end. At this moment, at a large-scale dining table, He Fei is using his chopsticks to devour the food, and is working together with other executors to eliminate There is no doubt that the delicious food in front of him is because the executor has never been short of money. As soon as he sat down at the table, he didn't even bother to look at the menu. He Fei directly ordered the most expensive meal on the table, but he once again experienced a wave of rich feeling. As After the food was served, Chen Xiaoyao also gave the waiter a generous tip to experience the taste of being rich.
"Hey! Chen Xiaoyao, you spent a lot of money, didn't you? Why did you give two thousand in one breath? And He Fei, you did the same, and you actually ordered a table of seafood? We are not traveling to the beach, why did you order this thing? ?”
Seeing the waiter walking away happily and not bothering to eat abalone, Peng Hu stared in shock and asked what the hell the two of them were crazy about. Even if the executor is rich, he can't mess around like this? When questioned, He Fei did not say that he wanted to eat seafood, but Chen Xiaoyao did not seem to have the calm quality of He Fei. As soon as Peng Hu finished speaking, Chen Xiaoyao grinned and said: "Hi, Isn't it just a little extra tip? What's the big deal? Who told us we were too poor before? When Pindao set up a fortune-telling stall on the street, he couldn't even have enough to eat for a day, but now he is finally rich, Pindao said Everything needs to look like a wealthy person."
Perhaps his voice was a little too loud when he spoke. Chen Xiaoyao's complaints about the past years were overheard by other guests sitting nearby, and they all looked at him with disdainful eyes as if they were looking at the nouveau riche. Although this scene was seen by everyone, Zhao Ping Ignore it, Cheng Ying ignores it, Tang Meng also turns a blind eye, Kong Ling still eats happily with a large lobster, while the newcomers headed by Gao Chengliang are simply mute throughout the whole process, but they eat honestly and never speak, except for officials. Chen Shuihong suddenly felt embarrassed, and Li Tianheng was also embarrassed by the many disdainful stares. Finally, he couldn't help but whisper to Chen Xiaoyao: "Brother Chen, can we lower our voices? Don't you see that everyone else is looking at us?" Woolen cloth!"
"Tch, if you want to see it, let them see it. We are rich anyway!"
Facing Li Tianheng's whispered reminder, Chen Xiaoyao didn't care, but his response was even louder than before. Seeing Taoist Chen becoming more and more arrogant, Peng Hu suddenly became furious and was about to scold him, but...
Before he could open his mouth to speak, a voice came from behind, a rather soft and hearty laughter:
"Haha, very good, I like this kind of aboveboard remarks."
