After walking through the darkness, Yang Ni's forehead was hit several times. This would never have happened before, which was really strange.

Cookie tightened her clothes and asked timidly: "We have been walking for so long and we met a stranger. If we continue like this, when will we use up the tracking mark?"

Yang Ni smiled and said, "Don't worry, in fact, this game is a must-win for us. If it really doesn't work, the three of us just need to challenge the scissors and stone cloth alternately. The ones who are really worried should be the others."

Cookie pondered for a moment and wanted to say something. Suddenly her face narrowed, she quickly shrank behind her, stretched out a white finger, pointed in a direction and said, "There's someone over there... there is someone over there!"

Liang Chun quickly looked up and saw that the distance illuminated by her headlight was very far, and she could easily see the scene 2 or 30 meters away.

They are still in this narrow underground tunnel, with a thin layer of frost on the surrounding rock walls, and their palms are cool and slippery to the touch.

The stone chamber where the crow man's nest was located was completely hidden in the darkness, and four forks appeared in front of them.

These intersections are of different sizes. Some are more than 3 meters high, while others have to bend down to get in. The only similarity is that they are all made of stone and soil. Even if Liang Chun’s headlights shine in, they cannot see the bottom.

The cookie refers to a fork near the left side, where there is a huge piece of bluestone nestled across the cave like a threshold, reflecting the gloomy light of stars under the light.

Yang Ni trusted Cookie's sensory keenness with 100%. Without saying a word, he endured the pain around him, took a step forward, gently pulled Liang Chun behind him, and then shook his arms, and the golden shield and silver sword appeared in his hand instantly.

After a few seconds, Yang Ni heard the sound even without the cookie reminder.

It was a series of rapid and panicked footsteps, accompanied by a big breath of breath, just like a person being chased by some dangerous existence, and he almost cried out for help.

Cookie pulled Yang's corner and whispered: "Here you come."

Sure enough, a little dim light in the tunnel approached from far to near, and was approaching quickly at a slow speed.

Yang Ni turned his mind and said to himself: "Since the other party came here with a light source, it is very likely that he would be a game player and he would stop him for any reason."

So he pointed to a big stone on the other side of the forked road. The two girls Cookie and Liang Chun immediately understood what he meant, gently twisted the headlight, and quietly avoided.

The two of them had just hidden themselves, and the light spot had already reached the entrance of the tunnel.

The visitor should have run toward him when he saw the light here, but as the light suddenly disappeared, he was obviously panicked and shouted: "Help! Help!"

Because he ran too fast, he did not see the blocking stone at the entrance of the tunnel. He was unable to close his power and was tripped out directly. He fell heavily to the ground, and the light source in his hand fell to the side.

Yang Ni leaned against the rock wall sideways, and he clearly saw that the luminous object was an old torch with an exquisitely decorated iron guardrail at the end, which was filled with flammable objects. However, although it was thrown to the ground, the flames were still burning upward tenaciously.

This man was obviously scared to death. He didn't even have time to stand up. He rolled and crawled to the torch on all sides, picked it up, and shouted for help: "For the sake of being both humans, come and save me!"

Although he did not see anyone, he recognized that there were other players here, just as the man who fell into the water grabbed the last straw, screaming in a very miserable manner.

Soon, Yang Ni also saw clearly what was chasing behind him.

It was a small group of human-shaped monsters like children. There were about 8 or 9 of them, and the tallest one was about the same as cookies. The beards on their faces showed that they were not children.

Moreover, the weapons they waved in their hands were also very strange, not swords and spears, but sharp and flat chokers, and some were flat iron shovels. Yang Ni even saw one of them holding a slender iron rod in his left hand and a short hammer in his right hand.

But it was such a group of monsters like miners. At this moment, when he saw the man sitting on the ground crawling backwards, his eyes showed a harsh light of excitement and cruelty.

The tallest dwarf was obviously a character like the team leader. He chased him in front and saw that his prey had given up resistance, and shouted loudly in excitement.

Strangely, Yang Ni could understand the words it shouted.

"The stone is on!" it shouted, "kill this invader!"

In fact, if they didn't need it to order, their subordinates were already impatient. They were short and short, but they were extremely agile in this narrow cave.

These dwarves swarmed up, waving the tools in their hands, and brutally smashed at the man on the ground.

The man's face was ashes and could only protect his head with both hands in vain.

"when!"

After a crisp sound, he tightened all over, but was surprised to find that he was not injured. On the contrary, there were roars of pain in his ears.

He was so scared that he looked out carefully through his fingers.

Under the light of his torch, a figure was fighting against the evil dwarves.

His movements were not fast, on the contrary, as if he was seriously injured, and his legs were a little inconsistent. However, he had a height advantage compared to the group of dwarves. The slender silver knife in his hand could bring up a large bunch of blood without slashing it once, just like a tiger pounced into a flock of sheep, with no one under his command.

Yang Ni wanted to save him for his own reasons.

In this game of scissors and stone cloth, players are certainly in a competitive relationship. If one person has a hard time card, the tracking mark will be reduced, which means that another person will lose the time card and increase the mark.

But one thing is that players themselves are also a non-renewable resource.

To win the game, you must challenge other players to win their Time Card. If a player is killed by a monster, his Time Card will disappear.

Even if the players die too many and the living cannot find enough players to challenge, they will not be able to win the game.

In fact, when he first saw the rules of this game, Yang Ni had an idea in his mind that this scissors and stone cloth game actually had an optimal solution.

Suppose there is such a player who has bad luck and will fail every challenge. If he only bets on one time card each time, he will lose 8 times.

This means that more than two people can consume all the time cards on him and win the game.

This means that if you follow this idea, the average winning rate of this game is more than two-thirds, that is, 2 out of 3 people will definitely win.

This also applies to Yang Ni, Cookie and Liang Chun.

However, this also has problems that cannot be avoided in actual operation.

First of all, the simplest game theory model of scissors and stone cloth, theoretically, has the same winning rate for everyone. It is difficult for one person to lose continuously in terms of probability, unless arranged in advance.

But this involves another issue. In the challenge, in addition to the challenge, there is also a third party, that is, the dealer who dresses like a clown.

He made it clear that this game is absolutely fair and eliminated any cheating. Whether this practice of negotiating the results in advance will be punished by him is still doubtful. This is also one of the main reasons why Yang Ni has not challenged within the three people so far.

The last point is to use the results. Yang Ni's three-person team was able to adopt this because they trust each other very much. After the game is over, the winner will naturally transfer the visa time he obtained to the loser through the atm terminal.

But this is completely unimaginable for other people participating in the game.

In the place of dying, visa time is not just as simple as "money", it also means higher attributes, more powerful equipment, longer survival time, and the possibility of achieving one's own obsession.

There are even a group of people on Huangquan Street who are reluctant to use them after winning the visa to strengthen themselves, but store them like squirrels just to live for a few more days.

Therefore, unless it is a real friendship, no one will take the initiative to lose to others in the game, and then expect the other party to transfer the time point to themselves after the game is over.

And those who have the conditions to do so are almost impossible for those who appear in the same Huangquan game multiple times in a row.

The contract emblem obtained by the cookie by chance is the most powerful artifact in the entire Hope Noodle Restaurant. This is why Yang Ni knocked the extremely rare soul diamond on it without hesitation.

Therefore, the more feasible the plan is, the more difficult it is to achieve in actual operation.

But this at least shows that the reduction in the number of players has a significant impact on the remaining players, which may be the reason why players cannot fight each other in the game rules.

These dwarves with gray skin, gray hair and gray beard are extremely strong, and Yang Ni's leg was accidentally kicked once, which hurts so much.

But the problem is that they are too short, with short hands and short legs, which makes them look a bit ridiculous in action. Although Yang Ni drags his body seriously, he can easily dodge most attacks.

The leading man obviously found that something was wrong. He quickly retracted back into the tunnel and shouted loudly: "For the sake of the stone, withdraw quickly!"

After saying that, he actually ran away first.

The remaining dwarves were not long-winded and quickly chased the captain behind him and left here at a faster speed than before.

In this moment, 4 or 5 corpses remained on the ground.

Seeing that the danger was lifted, the two women slowly walked out from behind the stone mouth, and a fireball was already slowly rotating on Cookie's shoulder.

Cookie looked at the man half-paralized on the ground curiously, and asked Yang Ni curiously: "What are they?"

Yang Ni pondered for a moment and replied: "It seems that they are gray dwarves. Like their close relatives on the surface, they like to dig out all kinds of precious ores the most."

"Yes, yes, it's the gray dwarf."
