Chapter 56 Negotiation Notice
The fish is hooked? That's how interstellar people talk.
Xu Lingqu replied on the intelligent brain: "Received."
She raised her head and looked at the other people, and began to explain why she had taken them hiding from place to place since entering the assessment site.
Time goes back to the way to the final assessment location. Instructor Kion deliberately left them some time. Since there will be a camp battle, some strategic planning is necessary.
Guan Zhongli, who was promoted to the commander-in-chief of the ordinary camp, felt a slight heat in his heart.
Not long ago, he had worried about what would happen if Xu Lingqu and the others formed a group for the final assessment. But now, the instructor gave them the cohesion they lacked the most.
1v55, what a concept! It would take a person a long time to catch 55 chickens. If they can't win in a one-on-one fight, can't they just use the human wave tactic to wear them down?
The fire of hope gradually burned in his heart. What if he could really win?
Who among those who study command has not fantasized about leading a battle to victory?
Just as he was thinking about this, Wang Qihu appeared.
He looked a little embarrassed: "Xu Lingqu wants to see you."
Guan Zhongli's heart skipped a beat, but he reacted faster than his brain: "She told me to go, so I have to go?"
While saying this, his slow-moving brain had already controlled his limbs to follow Wang Qihu obediently.
I went to see her just to see what tricks she was going to play, Guan Zhongli silently excused himself in his heart, turned around to look at Sun Liao who was passionately preaching about Xu Lingqu's heinous crimes, and felt like rolling his eyes again.
The place Wang Qihu took him to was secluded, in a grove of trees. Xu Lingqu was standing there leisurely. Her originally short hair had grown a lot longer and now hung on her shoulders. She didn't make any extra movements, but just glanced at him, and Guan Zhongli's heart trembled slightly.
The Xu Lingqu at this time was very different from the Xu Lingqu who taught him and Wang Qihu the steamed bun shooting method that day.
He thought so in his heart but could not say it out loud, so Guan Zhongli spoke first: "What do you want to talk to me about?"
He pretended to be calm and controlled his expression to keep a nonchalant look. Xu Lingqu saw this pretentious look clearly.
She didn't waste any time and got straight to the point: "Did Lin Xiao help you with the benefit analysis for this final assessment?"
Guan Zhongli was stunned for a moment: "What?"
"If not, let me be frank. You won't gain much by stubbornly fighting us. Each of the five of us has 20 points. It sounds like a lot at first, but the total is only 100. There are 275 of you in total, and we have less than half as many points as you do." Xu Lingqu summoned the same patience he had last time in the underground maze to help Guan Zhong sort out the logic. "Plus, our points are relatively concentrated. Even if five of us are hit by you, only five of you will actually benefit."
Guan Zhongli fell silent. These words were like a bucket of cold water that extinguished the fire that was rising in his heart.
What Xu Lingqu said was right. The faction confrontation to some extent concealed this cruel limitation. There were only five of them. Even if they could really catch all five of them, only five of them could get the 20 points in the end.
"But we still have camp points." Guan Zhongli couldn't help but want to struggle. After all, he was the commander-in-chief. It was a bit too low to be persuaded by just two sentences.
"What widens the gap between you is the faction points. What does adding ten points to each person mean? If everyone survives and everyone gets ten points, isn't that the same as not getting any points at all?" The gap between the top five and the bottom five is too wide, and this small amount of points won't pull them down. Furthermore, who ultimately gets the most faction points is, in a sense, more important than claiming the bounties on Xu Lingqu and his men. Because it covers more people, it causes greater fluctuations in the overall rankings. If one person gets ten points while another doesn't, it will directly result in a 20-point gap.
Kion's plan this time was to intensify the conflict between the factions, and several of the additional conditions he gave were intended to serve his purpose.
Unfortunately, the basic rules of the final assessment have not changed. Even if there are camps and bounties covering it, it cannot change the fact that the final assessment is essentially about each person fighting on their own, and elimination is a matter of course.
Guan Zhongli's throat was dry. Xu Lingqu had already explained it very clearly. If he continued to pretend to be stupid and not understand, he would be no different from a mentally retarded person.
The psychological gap after realizing the truth was too great, but what could he do? He sighed helplessly: "So... how do you want us to cooperate? What should we do?"
"Let's unite and attack those who are dissident. First, take out some of you as compensation points." Xu Lingqu handed over a list. The names on it were Sun Liao, who liked to slander Xu Lingqu, and his small group of about 20 to 30 people. "You can expand the number of people appropriately and build your own team. Take action against them first."
"You..." Guan Zhongli always thought that Xu Lingqu was too lazy to pay attention to Sun Liao's gang, but he didn't expect that they would be ruthless when they really started fighting, and even wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife.
I became the knife in her hand. Guan Zhongli took the list tremblingly.
When the final assessment rules were announced, many ordinary students were excited. After all, they were all candidates for the Moye trial at the six major military academies, and they all had some ambition and passion. Many shared Guan Zhongli's fantasy, but few truly harbored hostility towards Xu Lingqu.
Having experienced river rescues and underground maze command, anyone with a heartless heart would remember Xu Lingqu as an excellent commander. Sun Liao and his small, sensationalist group only made up a small minority; everyone else was the silent majority.
Guan Zhongli calmed himself down. "But their maximum benefit is only about 40 percent. Besides, if I suddenly attack them, it will only divide us. It will only benefit you. You can even take advantage of the chaos to kill us all." Don't let yourself be led by the nose! Think about your own interests.
Xu Lingqu nodded. "So the five of us won't attack you. This is the content of our cooperation. If necessary, we can help you lead them into the encirclement."
"You're not going to take action?" Guan Zhongli found it a bit unbelievable. "Then what are you going to do with the final assessment? Don't you want any points?"
However, the condition of not taking action was still very tempting. In Guan Zhongli's eyes, it would be easy for the five of them to kill 20 people each.
Being able to prevent the five of them from taking action means that fewer ordinary students will die at their hands, and they can fight each other and expand the points pool.
"Have you forgotten what Jin just asked in front of everyone?" Xu Lingqu had a smile on his face.
When Guan Zhongli saw this, he felt a chill all over his body.
"Our target is the 20 instructors who were cleared out."
