Chapter 43 Public Chat Time

Instructor Chen glanced at the time and it was almost time, so he used the authority of his intelligent brain to start the system.

Kion squatted on the side, showing a rare look of worry.

"What are you doing? Didn't you scout the location a month in advance and then hire someone to renovate it?" Instructor Chen found his appearance particularly funny and reached out to grab the man, like grabbing a giant Maine Coon cat.

Kaiang adjusted his military cap, which had nearly fallen to the ground due to Instructor Chen's actions, but his face was still filled with despair. "These little bastards, please don't ruin my good intentions..."

The last time Moye Military Academy suffered a crushing defeat in the desert map military academy league, it cast a huge shadow on Kion.

"There were reasons for the analysis and command of that defeat." Instructor Chen pointed at the intelligent computer. "You don't have to worry about this time. Xu Lingqu is here."

"You said this is according to the military academy league..." Xu Lingqu was about to ask a question when suddenly the intelligent brain in his hand started up and the sub-system began to operate. A map popped up in front of everyone, showing the real-time locations of 280 students. Most of the people were marked in green, while those on the same team were clearly distinguished by pink.

At this time, the positions of the other two groups were too far away from them.

There are a total of 20 entrances here, and there are three forks at the entrances pointing to three different material acquisition points. There are a total of 60 material storage rooms here, and the house that just returned has experienced an exchange of positions after teleportation.

Looking at the distribution of students' positions on the map, it can be confirmed that a large number of people chose to stay together in a team to search together. Some spaces were empty, some spaces were crowded with people, and some people entered the material room by teleportation, while others did not see the transfer of the house with their own eyes.

There are 60 material points and 20 holes. Each hole is coded 1-20 on the map, but the material points are not. The instructor has not yet released the rules for refreshing the holes that can be used to exit.

"Can the pattern of house relocation be calculated?" Xu Lingqu pondered for a moment and asked Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment: "I still need to exchange positions more times to see the pattern."

The safest way now is to stay on this road and wait for the house to automatically refresh. Take a look to see if there are materials you need. If you find one, take it. If not, exit and wait for the next house to come. Finally, go to the cave entrance and wait for the materials at the cave entrance to refresh.

If they are unlucky, they don't know when they can get out. Maybe the mecha master assessment is over and they are still squatting here.

At this moment, a window suddenly popped up on the system. When I clicked on it, I saw that I could enter content.

[Holy crap, this is a public chat section designed just for us?]

【Ahhhhhhh, we can actually chat now? 】

[The instructor didn't think we were bored, so he sent us here to kill time while we waited, right?]

What are you guys thinking?... It's obvious you want us to exchange information.

This sentence caused the rapidly scrolling chat interface to freeze for a moment. The instructor asked them to exchange information with each other this time? But wasn't this a trial period? They were clearly competitors, so could they really exchange information normally?

Xu Lingqu looked around and saw that only this public screen was used for chatting, and there was no second window for group chat.

She directly called the leaders of the other two groups who had heard the news: "Shen Shouli, Xu Xizhen, have you got the target materials?"

The refresh of Xu Lingqu's name caused the public screen chat to pause for a second time, and then directly changed the topic everyone was discussing.

[Am I seeing this right? Am I seeing this right? Is Xu Shen talking to me?]

[The name Xu Shen is very unfashionable. This is our great commander.]

"Aren't you ashamed? Why are you making such a fuss just because someone said something?"

Commander, what materials have you found? Our team doesn't have anyone to analyze or remember the materials. What should we do?

"Commander, you mean they're splitting up? How smart! If we'd known, we'd split up too and unlocked three material points."

Xu Lingqu stared at the screen for a long time, afraid of missing any news about the two of them, when suddenly two notification sounds came out.

【No】

[Sister, this isn't the material we want, TT. We haven't entered the house yet and are still on the original path.]

Although team members do not have their own private chat channels, they have exclusive prompt sounds when chatting on the public screen.

They didn't find the materials they were looking for, which was within Xu Lingqu's expectations. According to her luck, it was already very good for the level of the fighting group to be able to find a material directly this time.

A loud noise was heard. The five of them were no longer in the material room. When they turned around, they saw the small house suddenly disappear into the "ground". Then, a huge noise echoed in this underground maze. The second transfer of the material room was underway.

About five minutes later, the transfer was completed and a new material point appeared in front of them. The positions of the people on the map underwent a big change with just a click.

Xu Lingqu looked at Lin Xiao and asked, "How long has it been since the last transfer?"

Lin Xiao immediately replied, "7 minutes, 7 minutes to transfer. But our last transfer only took two minutes. The actual scene here is very different from the underground maze in Skynet. Let me think about it. Skynet is fully refreshed automatically, so the refresh time of material points is the same five minutes. But here, the transfer time of material points varies depending on the distance. Based on this, we can roughly calculate the transfer distance. Combined with the refresh pattern of the map, I think I should be able to tell which road a specific material point appears at different times."

The more she spoke, the brighter her eyes became. Xu Lingqu nodded and went into the new material room alone to check. When he found that the material did not belong to any of the ones they were looking for, he left.

Xu Lingqu opened the public screen and ignored everyone else sending messages to Shen Shouli and Xu Xizhen: "Now we have changed our strategy. As long as the materials our entire team needs are found, we can just take them directly. There is no need to divide them according to the previous method. Once we get them, just tell us here."

Previously, we divided the groups into specific materials to be found purely because we were worried about getting duplicates. Now that we can communicate, we don’t have to worry about this problem anymore.

Xu Lingqu added: "We have already obtained the silver."

As soon as she said this, the others were immediately shocked.

Is this something I can say directly?

"Why can't you just tell me? I already have it."

[Wouldn't that reveal her material points? Anyone with the same needs can just try to find the points they were at before. Our analysts said this can be calculated.]

[Do you dare to believe what Xu Lingqu said? What if she is lying and deliberately making a mistake?]

Suddenly, a quarrel broke out on the public screen because of this sentence.

Wang Qihu was about to criticize the person who made inexplicable speculations about Xu Lingqu, when Xu Lingqu spoke again.

[This assessment requires cooperation]
