Chapter 239: Inhuman (47) (1st update + 2nd update + 4,400 thunder 0.5 update) [VIP]
The fourth division represented by Guan Hongyan naturally accepted the alliance.
After the other three members of the team had no objection to the alliance, the third and fourth divisions were assigned to the same camp.
On the map, all the land grids of the two regions were merged together. Since it was a secret alliance, the changes only appeared on the plates of the two parties.
"That... Sister Hua," Xiao Tang jumped up as soon as Guan Hongyan left, "She is amazing."
"How powerful is she?" Xiao Fei beside her looked curious, "Sister Tang, who will win if you fight her?"
"It's hard to say," Xiao Tang thought for a few seconds, "I suspect she might have been a professional martial artist before she died."
"What do you mean?" Bai Jinshu raised his head with interest.
He had seen Guan Hongyan's fighting power in the investor forum. It was said that her fighting power was almost zero when she first entered the foundation, and her later fighting power was all increased by herself.
He didn't know which school she belonged to, but it was probably not martial arts. There were many viewers who watched Guan Hongyan grow up, and most of them knew that her martial arts skills were probably accumulated by struggling in the many unknown spaces of the Foundation, learning one move here and practicing another.
What you learn is diverse and what you use is also diverse, but what you develop in this environment are extremely efficient killing moves and life-saving techniques.
Guan Hongyan's moves are not systematic, and she herself doesn't even know what they are. Why does Xiao Tang say that she is a professional martial artist?
"Just now I used the excuse of wanting to learn a move from her to trick her," Xiao Tang thought for a moment and said, "And when she was learning, the opening and closing of her joints were very abnormal. Anyway, it's not a level that a normal person can achieve. She can only practice from a young age, so she must be a professional."
After all, if you are not a professional, you will not learn these things from a young age.
"What if she has been dancing since elementary school? Stretching the muscles or something?" Li Zi next to her interrupted.
"No," Xiao Tang scratched his head, "Do you think she has the feeling of learning dance?"
Li Zi held her chin up: "It seems that there is no ..."
Generally speaking, girls who study dancing have been training for many years, so their body shapes are not that different from ordinary people, but they can be recognized at a glance. For example, Sister Hua from the fourth zone does not look like a dancer.
"That was definitely a virgin skill," Xiao Tang complained, "I was just trying to find an excuse to get some information, but I didn't expect she was serious. That weird move almost broke my skeleton. I even heard the cracking sound."
"It's not that exaggerated..." After hearing this, Bai Jinshu almost understood what was going on.
Most likely, when Guan Hongyan created this fake identity, she was worried that her fixed attributes would become invalid, so she did not intend to give up her high martial arts value. However, she was also afraid that this feature would allow the people in the investment bank to locate her, so she added some other features while retaining her martial arts value, making her high martial arts value seem more like something that a professional had learned since childhood.
Presumably, she created a character like that of a student from a martial arts family or a martial arts school.
Just now when Xiao Tang was making an excuse to ask for advice, she acted so seriously, perhaps with the intention of strengthening her image.
Now, after Xiao Tang's complaint, most people would probably think that Hong Conghua practiced kung fu before entering the investment bank, which formed a sharp distinction with the high martial arts acquired by Guan Hongyan of the foundation.
"That's not an exaggeration!" Xiao Tang sat next to him, holding his waist with a distorted expression, "I even heard the sound of my skeleton at that time. I don't think she was deliberately taking revenge on me for attacking the short guy who studied economics in their division before..."
"Okay," Bai Jinshu stood up and glanced at the map, "Let's get down to business."
As soon as he said this, the contestants who were still daydreaming or chatting stood up and gathered around.
"We have now formed an alliance with Division 4," Bai Jinshu pointed at the map, "We are very close to Division 1, nine squares away."
"Announcement," he said, "You can manipulate the dice, right? In the next round, find a way to put Division One and us in the same grid. Once Division One is won over, Division Two's wishes won't matter."
After all, judging from the current situation, the people in the second division are not stupid, and there is no deep hatred between them. As long as they see the current situation clearly, no one will choose to go against the Buff that is about to be obtained.
Announcement: [Understood.]
Bai Jinshu: "By the way, when we form an alliance with Division 1, don't show Division 4 on your map. Just show them and us."
Announcement: [Okay Dad, no problem Dad. 】
Bai Jinshu glanced at his watch and said, "Okay, it's almost time to roll the dice. Let's pack up and get ready to go."
"Xiao Fei," he suddenly remembered and added, "Go tell those four guys with buzz cuts not to bring the decoration team with you next time."
The First Division probably doesn't know about them and these four gangs yet, so it would be troublesome to explain, so they could just not show up. They would be able to win and leave soon anyway.
"Okay, I'll go now." Xiaofei turned around and went out.
The next round of dice rolling came soon, and under the secret manipulation of the organizer, the first and third zones soon collided with each other and entered a completely new land grid.
Perhaps the announcement was intended to please, as this piece of land was exactly the same piece of land that the third and first divisions encountered in the previous round, and even the venue was ready-made.
The first competition zone appeared at an unusual time, with all members present. More than 20 people got off the business car in a mighty manner. It didn't look like a competition zone meeting, but more like they were here to challenge each other for a fight.
However, behind the huge crowd of contestants in the first division are all Husky-like hearts.
As soon as he got out of the car, the big brother who had jumped off the building because his company went bankrupt due to business losses rushed towards the yellow-haired man as if he had seen a brother, and was so familiar with him that it was scary: "What a coincidence, brother! We meet again!"
Huangmao's smile was very forced.
Even though this guy looks like a decent person now, the scene of him crying and hugging a semi-professional beggar outside the police station more than a dozen rounds ago is engraved in his DNA and cannot be removed.
“Hey, hey, hey, Miaomiao, be careful!” Just as the big brother was about to pounce on him, the voices of several girls came from the business car of the first competition area behind him, “Don’t fall, don’t fall!”
Everyone subconsciously looked in the direction where the sound came from.
Next to the business car in the first competition area, a girl with short messy hair fell to the ground. Several girls surrounded her, two of them were helping her, and one was picking up things that fell on the ground.
"Oh, that's Lin Su Miao," the eldest brother noticed everyone's gaze and took the initiative to explain, "She was tricked into going to the Myanmar park with several teammates from our division. She might have fallen somewhere, and after returning, she couldn't walk anymore."
"Can't walk?" Huang Mao said in confusion, "Is it the one I thought couldn't walk? Is her lower limbs disabled?"
"No, no," the eldest brother scratched his head, "Let me think about how to describe it... It's a bit like a person who has just broken a bone and is recovering. Lin Su Miao can walk, but it seems that her legs have no strength when she walks, and she falls easily when she walks, just like what happened just now."
She got out of the car and fell down before she could stand firmly.
"The recovery period after a fracture is the same..." Xiao Tang muttered as he stood beside Bai Jinshu, "Did this Myanmar park break her leg?"
It shouldn’t be that serious, right?
Judging from the description of the semi-professional beggar, apart from fraud, there should not be any personal crisis in their park.
This girl named Lin Su Miao...what on earth did she encounter in the park?
"Didn't you ask her what happened?" Huangmao couldn't help but ask.
"I asked her," the eldest brother said in a confused tone, "she said she fell and this happened..."
Can wrestling lead to such a fall?
Everyone in the third division had a look of doubt on their faces.
Lin Su Miao looks like a girl in her twenties, not an elderly person in her seventies or eighties. She has osteoporosis and is in poor health. A fall could easily lead to serious complications.
She was in her twenties, and all her organs were at their best. How could she get hurt like this just from a fall?
Bai Jinshu watched the girls help Lin Su Miao up. The girl named Manman squatted down and carried her on her back with the help of the other two people. Throughout the whole process, Lin Su Miao's body posture was very strange.
How should I put it... It's like I can't control my limbs.
Her limbs had a very strange movement trajectory, not like what the eldest brother said. She tried her best to command them to make certain movements, but she couldn't muster the energy. Instead, it was as if these limbs did not obey her commands.
Manman carried Lin Su Miao on her back and walked to the front of the hotel: "Can I borrow a room?"
"Please go ahead," Bai Jinshu made way for him, "Can't your team member take care of himself now?"
Given Lin Su Miao's situation, it seems that it will be difficult for her to survive in the Novice Village.
"Well... not really. After all, it's quite strange that she became like this after just falling down." Manman showed a trace of embarrassment on her face. "Let's analyze it. We think it might be a problem with the holographic image. We can just get out of here."
That's possible.
After all, this is just a holographic world, so it is normal for some accidents to occur that would not occur in a normal human body in the outside world.
Everyone from the third division watched Manman escort Lin Su Miao into the room. Outside the hotel, many players from the first division had already consciously sat down in the reception area of the hotel.
"The charges at your hotel seem so familiar...why do they look so familiar?" The self-familiar elder brother sighed while sitting on the sofa.
Huangmao: "This is the land where you sent away ten teammates in the last round."
Big Brother: “Ah…Ahahaha, is that so?”
Speaking of this dark history, everyone in Division 1 showed more or less embarrassment on their faces.
"Uh... let's not talk about this, let's not talk about this," the eldest brother said awkwardly, changing the subject, "This is the first time we've paid tolls, and it's pretty expensive... 200."
"Don't you have any money?" Xiao Tang asked curiously.
"It's gone!" Everyone in Division 1 spoke frankly, "After paying the toll, we only have 300 left. If Er Ge hadn't asked the Urban Management Brigade to arrest the swindler, we would have gone bankrupt a long time ago."
"Urban Management Brigade...yes?" The yellow-haired man looked confused.
He knew that “swindler” probably referred to the semi-professional beggar, but what did “urban management brigade” refer to?
Huang Mao looked at the eldest brother in bewilderment. The eldest brother thought for a moment and said, "Oh, it was your brother Er who led a large group of people passing by the entrance of our hotel. They looked so impressive. He was riding a horse in the front, and a large group of people followed behind him, waving flags and marching in a mighty manner!"
Huangmao: ...?
Could he be talking about the Qin army?
If Qin Shi Huang were really alive, he would cry to death when he heard you call the Qin army the Urban Management Brigade, right?
"Don't you have enough money?" Bai Jinshu was sitting nearby and casually glanced at everyone in the first division.
There are a lot of people in the First Division, and now everyone is sitting in the lounge area in the lobby, filling the entire hotel. It seems hard to imagine that such a large and populous division would be trapped to this point because of a high-salary scam.
"Yeah..." Manman sighed, "If we encounter a few more rounds of grids that require payment, we will be eliminated."
As soon as these words were spoken, a trace of sadness appeared on everyone's face.
No one wanted to be eliminated. Even they came with the intention of winning the championship. Who would have thought that they would be cheated of nearly half of their teammates by a high-salary scam, and even led them to the brink of bankruptcy.
At this time, everyone heard Ersi from the third division say, "In this case, would you consider forming an alliance?"
"What alliance?" Everyone in Division 1 had the same reaction as the short guy in Division 4. "Didn't we form an alliance a long time ago?"
Xiao Tang stepped forward and explained again the current updated version and his speculated way to win.
"So you've discovered that as long as we're in the same camp, the land in the two zones can be added together?" Manman confirmed.
"Yes," Bai Jinshu nodded, "If we form an alliance, you won't have to pay tolls when you pass through our grid, which in some ways will reduce your spending pressure."
From this position forward, their division has the most land. If they don't have to pay tolls when passing through these lands, it will at least reduce a significant amount of expenses for the First Division.
"How are you guys..." Before Xiao Tang could finish his words, he saw a few tears in the eyes of the sentimental elder brother.
"I told you guys you're good people!"
The eldest brother's tears burst like a dam, and soon drowned the yellow-haired man who was sitting closest to him: "When I went bankrupt, I got used to seeing how fickle people are. If I could have met good people like you at that time, I wouldn't have jumped off the building, wuuuu..."
Huangmao: ...
"Brother, please stop crying..." His face was numb.
"People like you are really rare, and good things will happen to those few people!" The eldest brother cried more and more fiercely.
"We will definitely form an alliance," Manman quickly decided, "but we need to say this beforehand..."
A hint of embarrassment appeared on her face: "It is very likely that our region will be eliminated before winning..."
It seems that their alliance is simply taking advantage of the Third Division.
The third division has both land and money, but they not only don’t have much land, but now they only have more than 300 left.
There is no other reason to explain this alliance except that everyone in the third division is a good person.
All members of Division 1 confirmed the alliance with great emotion.
Bai Jinshu and Xiao Tang, who had thought of a lot of excuses beforehand, said: …
Okay, the first division is indeed the easiest to talk to.
Three hours passed, and soon it was time for the next round of dice rolling.
Someone else went to help Lin Su Miao out of the room. The first competition area that scored a 6 soon left with several business cars.
Everyone in the third zone packed up and started moving to the next grid.
"In this situation, we are only left with the second division," Xiao Tang stepped on the edge of the stool with both legs, swaying, "What should we do? Should we go find them directly?"
The current situation is extremely favorable to them. As long as the second division is not fools, they should know how to choose.
"Where is the third competition area?" Bai Jinshu turned his head.
"Look, at the other end of the map," Xiao Tang turned the tablet over, "If our two teams want to meet naturally, even if you are cheating, it will take several rounds."
You really have to take the initiative to find it.
Bai Jinshu touched his chin and asked, "Where are the buzz cuts of the four gangs?"
He vaguely remembered that these four people also achieved an industrial closed loop through the second competition area.
The four of them know best how much money the Second Division has not repaid and how much deposits it has. Knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in every battle. Although the Second Division's alliance is now a foregone conclusion, it is still better to understand their situation so as to speak more targetedly.
"Didn't the four of them not let them come before?" Xiao Tang thought for a moment, "Let Xiao Fei run errands when we get there."
"Okay, Sister Tang." Xiao Fei agreed quickly.
The business car stopped at the square where everyone rolled the dice, and the other eight people got off. The car carrying Xiaofei drove towards the direction of the four gangs again.
Just when everyone thought nothing would happen in this round, an announcement suddenly popped up: [The second division is here. 】
"Come here?" Bai Jinshu frowned. "Announcement, why are they here?"
[It seems that the interest rate offered by the White Tiger Hall is too high.] A line of words slowly appeared in the notice, [They can’t pay it back anymore, so they want to come here to plead for mercy and lower the interest rate of the loan shark.]
Everyone:……
Well, now before they have the chance to go, everyone from the second division has arrived.
"Then let them come over," Bai Jin thought for a moment, "Announcement, go tell Xiao Fei to bring the four crew cuts along."
Now that the Second Division has come to us on their own initiative, and with this reason, it is clear that their economic condition is not good, and they have probably reached the end of their offensive, otherwise they would not have come to us on their own initiative.
Announcement: [OK.]
It hesitated for a moment, and then another line of round, round words appeared: [I just wanted to say this, Dad, you can actually call me Xiao Shang, just for announcement, it hurts the feelings, it's too formal.]
Bai Jinshu: ...
Does this announcement still care about these?
"Hey," Xiao Tang laughed, "You think Ersi calls you too formally. He doesn't even know the names of his other sons now."
Now Ersi still calls his other five sons "the buzz cut of a certain gang" and "semi-professional beggar". The five of them are not even as good as the organizer who is not sure whether he is a human or not. At least the organizer has a decent name in their eyes - announcement.
[Really?] The announcement was delighted, [Then I am the most special one.]
It went away contentedly.
Xiao Tang: “Tsk tsk.”
Xiao Tang: "Sure enough, the youngest is the most favored."
Bai Jin said: "...if you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb."
"Tsk..." Xiao Tang shrank his neck. "Your early fatherhood has become a reality. Now you should accept it and don't reject it."
After saying this, the girl jumped and ran away. No one knew what she was doing, but it seemed that she was really practicing Guan Hongyan's so-called boy's kung fu.
As the business car carrying Xiaofei and four crew cuts returned, the team from the second zone also arrived.
The man who got out of the car was their man in the windbreaker.
He wanted to say something when he got off the car, but all his thoughts vanished when he saw the four creditors.
The four men with buzz cuts didn't know why Bai Jinshu called them over. The man with buzz cut from the White Tiger Hall, who was standing in the front, saw him and his eyes lit up: "Hey, are you guys paying back the money from your division yet? Hurry up!"
Man in Jacket: ...
The man in the jacket had a distorted expression on his face: "Why are you here...?"
"How fresh," the man next to him said shamelessly, "What's our relationship with Er Ge, what's our relationship with the Third Division, is there any problem with staying here?"
"As for you, if your region can't pay back the money, our service won't be able to keep up, and if our service can't keep up, we won't be able to help you with security." The crew cut had a knowing look on his face, "Then... there's no guarantee that your hotel won't get into trouble."
He counted on his fingers: "For example, there are gangsters causing trouble outside and affecting the profit rate, or there is a fire accident that burns down the hotel, or a guest is beaten up for no reason, etc...."
"You, you guys, don't go too far!" The man in the windbreaker glared.
"How can this be called bullying?" The men with buzz cuts looked at each other. "It's obviously more bullying to owe money and not pay it back, right?"
"The repayment price you are charging now has far exceeded the interest rate you promised at the beginning!" the man shouted, "You are raising the price on the spot."
"That's enough," the man from the White Tiger Hall stroked the back of his neck, "If we don't raise the price, how can we be considered a gang loan shark? We won't be a bank anymore."
"In a word, you still don't want to return it?"
Man: “You…you guys!”
"What's wrong?" Bai Jinshu saw that the atmosphere had finally settled down, so he walked out of the hotel and looked at the man in the windbreaker in surprise, "You're not the one from Division 2... Why are you here?"
When the man saw Bai Jinshu, the anger on his face subsided a little: "I came to discuss cooperation with you."
His face was serious: "Can we go in and talk?"
"Come in." Bai Jinshu glanced at the three men with buzz cuts outside and took the lead in pushing open the door of the hotel.
Everyone from the third division was in the hotel. As soon as the man in the jacket came in, he said, "It's like this. Have you read the latest rules? According to our division's research, this rule is good for alliances. Once everyone forms an alliance at the same time, all four divisions can win the championship and get the buff at the same time."
When he said this, everyone was stunned for a few seconds.
The second division...isn't this stealing their lines?
The man in the jacket didn't notice their expressions and continued to lobby: "This is just an idea for now, and we haven't started to form an alliance yet. But if this guess is correct, then we have discovered a major bug in the game, so we came to you to experiment first."
"Then you... uh, why didn't you choose the other two regions?" Xiao Tang suppressed his inner smile and pretended to be skeptical.
"There is almost no land in the first division, so the gain effect is not strong. As for the fourth division..." The man's face showed a trace of embarrassment, "We are not familiar with each other."
"We are quite familiar with your Third Division, so we wanted to come and try with you..."
This reason is reasonable, but it is definitely not the only reason.
"I'm afraid that you came to our Third Division to form an alliance with the intention of not paying back the money after becoming an ally?" Xiao Tang said bluntly.
The man was stuck for a moment: "He...they charge exorbitant fees!"
"We have already repaid the money according to the interest rate, but he has collected more and more money each time, which has far exceeded the amount agreed upon at the beginning." He showed a lot of anger on his face, "If you can form an alliance, you can make any request!"
"Really?" Bai Jinshu looked up.
Man in Jacket: “Really.”
He looked at the people in the room nervously, fearing that this alliance was also a desperate attempt.
Bai Jinshu smiled and said, "No requirements, just sign it."
Before, he might have directly asked them which region they belonged to at this time, but since everyone won, the winning side's region could not be concealed at all. In this case, there was no difference between asking and not asking. Asking one more question would arouse the other party's suspicion, so they were prepared.
"It's... it's that simple?" The man signed the alliance agreement blankly, his face full of confusion. "You... don't want to ask me for anything?"
"You can look at the map yourself." Huangmao threw the tablet of the third competition zone to him.
The man in the windbreaker took the tablet in confusion, and was shocked to find that all the purchased lands on it were now the same color.
"You guys..." He looked up suddenly.
"We have already formed an alliance with the other two regions," Bai Jinshu raised his eyebrows, "You don't think you are the only ones who have discovered the loopholes in the new rules, do you? Regardless of whether you come this round or not, we will look for you to form an alliance."
The man in the jacket was stunned for a while: "But just now..."
He came here impulsively to ask for cooperation, and started an argument with the guy with a buzz cut outside the door, directly handing the handle to the other party. But when he said he could make any request, the other party did not take advantage of the situation at all.
"Thank...thank you." He held the tablet in silence for a moment, then pushed open the door of the hotel.
And at the moment the door opened, the entire area announcement was updated:
[The 370th Business All-Round Challenge - Version 3.0 [Rebuilding Daqin] has come to a perfect end. The champions of this competition are: Division 3, Division 4, Division 1, Division 2. Buffs will be issued after leaving the competition. Please check and verify before leaving the competition building. Monopoly City thanks you for coming. Countdown to log out of the holographic space: 15, 14, 13...]
As the countdown continued to shrink, all the members of the third division received the last message from the announcement: [Dad!!! Don’t forget about me when you go out!!! I will come to find you after I have revitalized Daqin!!!]
The author has something to say:
