Don't talk about Keitan at this time, Buck himself was breaking out in a cold sweat. In a magical world, there were actually math problems!
But for those perverted mages in the Demonic Empire, this is a common thing.
The rulers of the Demonic Empire are a group of powerful magicians. They not only study spells, but also alchemy, golems, biochemical transformation and so on.
The subhuman races currently living on the continent, such as fox women, cat women, mermaids, lizard men, centaurs, etc., are all experimental creations of the magicians from the Demon Empire.
More of a mad scientist than a magician.
On this continent with real gods, the other party actually conducted research on gods. It is said that they actually captured a weak god. Then overnight, the entire demon empire disappeared from people's sight, and a large number of experimental subjects fled. , have thrived in various places for thousands of years.
Apparently the man who made this sphinx was a crazy transformation maniac.
"10!"
"9!"
"8!"
Unknowingly, a few minutes had passed, and Ketarn could not answer the question at all. As time passed, the Sphinx began a countdown to death.
"Ahhhhhhhh!" The opponent's countdown made Kaitarn go crazy. He took out a bottle of pitch-black potion from his arms and poured it into his mouth. His whole body suddenly swelled. An evil aura enveloped his whole body, and then he raised the sharp blade in his hand and rushed toward the Sphinx.
pia!
The Sphinx waved its arm as if to shoo away a fly, and Kaitarn, whose strength had soared, was blown away without any room for resistance, and directly stuck to the big tree trunk nearby. Even the metal armor on his body was deformed. Obviously it can't be picked out.
After dealing with a guy who attacked him, the Sphinx looked around again, and then locked his eyes on Buck.
Buck's face turned pale and he was ready to fight.
Instead of resisting and being beaten to death and turned into a cookie, it's better to fight with your own mirror image.
"Questions begin."
"Question: Master Vendix wanted to transform centaurs. He acquired a group of human slaves and locked them with horses. There were 42 heads and 112 feet in total. How many centaurs can be transformed if the experiment success rate is 100%? Just a centaur?”
"Answer countdown!"
"100."
"99."
"98."

'A chicken and a rabbit in the same cage! This question is simple, but it just adds some conditions! But why do I only have 100 seconds! 'Hearing the other party's question, Buck first breathed a sigh of relief, and then complained again.
Mental arithmetic on my own is not my strong point.
Thinking of this, Buck suddenly shouted: "I'm not trying to escape!"
Then he walked aside, picked up a branch, and started counting on the soft ground.
"Suppose the person is X and the horse is Y..."
Soon, a linear equation in two variables was listed by Buck.
With equations, the answer is quickly solved.
"14 centaurs!, with a 100% success rate, the smallest number of species is the answer. There are 28 people and 14 horses in total, so the answer is 14!"
Buck, who had figured out the answer, shouted loudly.
"Correct answer! Reward!" Sphinx opened his mouth, a drawing fell out of his mouth, and then his body twisted and disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Oh my god, thank you math teacher." Buck exhaled and muttered to himself.
Buck wiped the sweat from his head and picked up the drawing, but he could only recognize it as a design drawing, but he didn't recognize the text on it at all. It was obviously the text of the Demon Empire back then.
This is equivalent to a piece of waste paper.
Fortunately, the system also gives rewards:
[You answer the Sphinx’s question, you can choose from the following rewards:]
【1. Gold coin reward】
【2. Experience rewards】
【3. Treasure rewards】
Choose one of the three. If it were a game, treasure would definitely be the best choice. But now that Buck's territory was in urgent need of development, he directly chose gold coin rewards.
[You have obtained gold coins*5500. 】
Get rich! ! !
A total of 5,500 gold coins is enough for him to train all the people who can be trained. And as long as he has enough resources and builds stables, he can directly build an equestrian training ground and train sixth-level cavalry.
You must know that cavalry are also human beings. The reason why they can be at the same level as other races, such as the barbarian Cyclops, is because they need years of training and expensive equipment to be able to compete with the Cyclops when launching a charge.
And the greater the number, the more powerful it is.
With the lord system, Buck only needs subjects and horses who can train cavalry, and he can train several in a week.
Even if there are no conditions, after building the building, the training quota in the territory can be reserved.
Seeing the Sphinx disappear, everyone alive breathed a sigh of relief. Buck picked up the sword in his hand and stabbed Keitan a few more times against the tree.
"What are you doing?" Seeing Buck's actions, a guard asked angrily.
"Damn thing, you didn't even ask to remind me!!!"
Obviously if Kaitarn reminded him in time, Buck and the others would not be included in the Sphinx's questioning. Although they might be slapped to death by the Sphinx if they spoke out, as a bodyguard, shouldn't it be their duty to protect their master's safety? ?
The other guards looked at each other. Of course they knew that they and others did not regard Buck as their master at all, but Kaitarn's behavior was obviously to drag them into trouble, and they were all resentful and did not stop Buck.
After finishing his anger, Buck put away the sword in his hand and turned around and came to the two thieves who were still lying on the ground and did not dare to move. When passing by Elise who was being carried on his back, he winked quietly.
"You two, do you want to live or die?" Buck looked at the two of them and asked.
Just when the two were about to speak, a sudden change occurred, and a scream was heard from behind everyone.
Several guards turned around quickly, only to see the cowardly little boy opening his big mouth and biting the neck of the guard who was carrying him.
The sudden change caught everyone off guard. The other guards immediately drew their weapons and rushed towards the biting Elise.
But the guard at the back suddenly felt pain in his waist.
[You launched an attack. 】
When the other guards rushed over, Buck struck the last guard in the back with a sword, and then threw the sword without hesitation, rolling to the side like a lazy ass.
Sure enough, the guard who was attacked swung his sword back directly, but it missed the point. When he saw that it was Buck who attacked him, he let out an angry roar.
Several other people immediately turned their heads, but before they could move, a bat suddenly flew to their middle armor and transformed into Elise with green hair and blood-eyed eyes. She saw two daggers taken out by Elise from nowhere. With his hands moving quickly, the necks of the four guards were cut open, and blood spurted out.
What's happening here? ? ? ?
The two thieves on the side and Kili who followed were completely confused.
