The moment Fufu’s words fell.
Shisanxiang’s pupils suddenly narrowed and her breathing stopped suddenly.
An inexplicable feeling of fear seized his heart.
That is not a fear of failure.
It seemed as if there was some extremely cold and viscous liquid clinging to his spine from his back, slowly crawling upwards. This unusual feeling made his back tense and goosebumps appeared on his arms.
Shisanxiang lost control of her body in an instant.
After a slight feeling of dizziness, a strange hallucination appeared in front of Shisanxiang’s eyes——
He appeared in the dark closed room, while the hands of winter, the fragrant basement, and the husky playing Annan completely disappeared.
Only Fufu was left around him, and he couldn't even see the player barrages that kept passing by in front of him.
...Is this an anti-cheating system?
Shi Sanxiang quickly realized something.
But that doesn't matter... He had guessed from the beginning that Fu Fu might have a way to limit the opponent's use of outside means. Otherwise, if we can gather the wisdom of everyone, there will be nothing to be afraid of.
He quickly calmed down and began to observe the surrounding environment.
This is a temple building with unusually simple decoration.
The ancient Egyptian stone building seems to be mixed with a little Greek style, which is reminiscent of the ancient environment inside the pyramid. There were several slender candles lit around it, but they were unexpectedly bright.
And he is still Dmitri's body at this moment - this is what he determined by observing his wrist with the amber bracelet. But the clothes he was wearing were no longer Dmitri's clothes, but simple clothes made of white gauze and a lot of linen ropes. The biggest feature was that there were many linen rope knots.
"Don't panic, Your Highness Dmitry. This is just to give you a quieter environment to think."
Fufu said with a smile: "Our gambling can still proceed normally..."
As he spoke, two candles suddenly lit up in front of him.
A marble platform was revealed in front of them. There is a stone bowl on top, with three ancient bone dice placed in it - and 26 stones are placed on the left and right around it.
"This is a dice made of centaur skulls, which can isolate the influence of the power of fate. Whoever scores one point will take away a stone... Not complicated, right?
"Then, Your Highness, are you going to act first or second?"
After Fufu gave a brief introduction, he immediately asked again.
"...go first."
Shi Sanxiang took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.
In this kind of game, the first player will definitely have an advantage - as long as the first player gets the final points first in a certain round, then the second player will be indescribable in that round.
Assuming that the two sides are entangled until the end, then the first mover is equivalent to being ahead for half a round. This is a very big advantage... Under a balanced situation, this half-round advantage is enough to win.
"Go first...is this part of your 'control'?"
Fufu sighed: "It's so sensible... So, each round of thinking time is one minute, is that okay?"
It was obviously just a nightmare... Even if he died, it would not have much impact on him. This time he was just here to collect information. But he felt an inexplicable sense of nervousness, as if he was standing at the door of the examination room waiting for the door to open.
If you ask him to sit down, he might start shaking his legs immediately.
Foreign aid cannot be relied on, so we have to rely on ourselves.
Shisanxiang closed her eyes and began to use her brain to calculate quickly for the first time in a long time.
——This seems to be a mindless guessing of numbers, but because of the "penalty for guessing", it becomes traceable. Just like the poker game "Blackjack".
The difference is that three decks of playing cards are generally used in blackjack, that is, 152 cards are used in one round. Because used cards will not reappear, the proportion of used cards will directly affect the probability of subsequent large and small cards appearing in the same round.
Shisanxiang's mind is not a computer, and it is impossible to instantly calculate dynamic probabilities in the "blackjack" game. But if you want to calculate this dice game, it must be relatively simple.
The numbers that can be drawn in this game are random numbers from 3 to 18. But 11 as the median is not the most probable number - because it is the final number obtained by adding a set of 3D6 dice.
To ensure that there is no explosion, the number must be as small as possible.
Choose 3... No, 3 is still too dangerous.
Then it would be better to roll each die between 2 and 3.
With three six-sided dice, when you want to get a number with a sum of less than 6, the probability will be significantly smaller. The safest bet is the four numbers from 6 to 9. That is, the total number is four numbers between 6 and 9, which is a more reasonable...but not too risky threshold.
Shi Sanxiang quickly finalized the conclusion.
He did not have time to perform complex calculations, so he could only roughly finalize the four numbers "6789". He instinctively believed that these four numbers should be the ones with higher expectations.
Considering that Miss Good Luck's lucky number is 7, if you choose "7" among this number, you may have better luck.
"...Has it started yet?"
Shi Sanxiang asked in a low voice.
He felt his throat was dry and hoarse.
"Of course," Fufu said with a smile, "It will take a long time."
"Then I choose...7 as the first number."
Shi Sanxiang said slowly.
The moment his voice fell, the three bone dice suddenly lit up.
They arrived in front of Shisanxiang, then divided into three directions, and fell naturally - after falling into the stone bowl, they made a crisp and sweet crackling sound, bounced up again after collision, and then fell.
The numbers are "2, 3, 2".
The sum is seven.
Shisanxiang breathed a sigh of relief.
"——Okay."
He cheered for himself in a low voice and took away seven of the twenty-six stones on his right side.
A great start!
What a risk... Today's dice luck was obviously not good, and it almost exploded.
If it were a little safer, maybe calling 6 would be better... Or is this Miss Good Luck saying that she is very lucky today?
Shi Sanxiang couldn't help but start thinking wildly.
Fufu folded his arms and read out his number with a smile:
"——Of course I choose eighteen."
At that moment, Shisanxiang's thinking stopped.
His first reaction was - you are not going to cheat, are you?
But soon, the results came out.
The number is thirteen.
Because it was younger than Shiba, it exploded.
"So I won't take away the stones above. But of course, I won't add new stones...because I can't deduct any points lower than zero."
Fufu said with a smile.
...You didn't say earlier that there were no negative points!
Shi Sanxiang thought viciously.
But this seems reasonable.
This is probably the same as when the number of inner static layers is zero, even if you fail to concentrate on processing and explode, you don’t have to be afraid of the penalty of halving the number of inner static layers...
But this way I am ahead——
Shi Sanxiang thought in her heart.
He didn't dare to say it for fear of becoming.
"Then I will still choose number seven in the next round," Shisanxiang said solemnly, "Miss Good Luck will protect me."
"No way."
Fufu replied calmly: "The skull of the horseman can block the power of fate."
As if mirroring Fufu's words.
The number Shisanxiang rolled this round is 6.
It exploded - so one point was deducted.
He reluctantly returned the stone.
Absolutely outrageous. he thought.
3D6 can actually roll 7 or less in two consecutive rounds... This is simply not possible!
"I am still eighteen."
Fu Fu replied.
This is probably someone who is barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes. It’s zero points anyway, no matter how many deductions are made, it doesn’t matter.
The numbers that Fu Fu rolled out this round were even more outrageous.
This time it is "one two one", with a total score of four. If Fu Fu's number is not zero, this explosion is enough for him to play "Going Home" on the saxophone.
In the next round, Shi Sanxiang still guesses seven.
This time the number he rolled was ten.
Although still not big, he can still accumulate seven points. At this time Shisanxiang already had thirteen points - just over half of the points.
And Fufu rolled out a number seven with his back hand. His total score is still zero.
This time, Shisanxiang chose Seven again - the tension had made him unable to think. Just continue to inherit the previous decision and choose seven without any brain.
This time he rolled an eight.
Seven points again.
He already has twenty points - just one more seven points.
No, even if it is six points, he has already won!
"You know, Your Highness Dmitry."
But at this moment, Fufu suddenly said: "Those who have no power have nothing to lose. The anger of those who have nothing will become more powerful."
"——Don't talk to me, I don't want to talk to you."
Shisanxiang was worried that there might be some trap in Fu Fu’s words, or he might start talking nonsense, so he said unceremoniously: “Tell me your numbers quickly.”
"Of course...eighteen."
Kufo also didn't change his numbers.
But...
Shi Sanxiang’s breathing stopped suddenly.
——Three sixes.
Eighteen o'clock, the theoretically highest number.
"Do you remember what I said before?"
Fufu said calmly: "The desire for power to control others, the wisdom of guessing people's hearts, and the patience to persist until luck comes.
"Look, I persisted. But you didn't guess this move."
"You might as well try again, your lucky number... and see if Miss Luck will bless you, how about it?"
... Damn you.
Shi Sanxiang’s lips moved slightly and cursed secretly.
Your dice are filled with lead!
Why do you roll a 666 when you start talking?
He suddenly felt a little panicked.
What to do?
Next...choose six?
According to previous calculations, the probability of "6 and above" is the largest and safest.
...No, no.
If you roll the minimum value of three this time, you will be deducted four points. In that case, I would be further behind than Fu Fu.
Even if it is 4, it may be reduced by one.
If you want the safest option... choose three.
If you choose three, no matter what tricks Fufu uses, Shisanxiang will definitely get three points. And Shisanxiang now has twenty points, and will win after two rounds no matter what.
In other words——
Shi Sanxiang realized quickly.
The current game has changed from a calculation of probability to a game of people's hearts.
In the next round, Shisanxiang can only choose 3 as long as he does not choose 6.
To choose 6 is to bet that the rotten man will not do anything, and leave the outcome to probability. But as long as he fails, he will immediately lose all his current advantages.
Either choose the more conservative number three, and you will definitely win after two rounds.
Looking at Fufu's side - Fufu is still eight points short.
Assuming that Fufu can really control the dice...then it shouldn't be difficult for him to make himself roll a number above 8?
...Wrong.
Shi Sanxiang suddenly reacted.
If Fu Fu can control the dice, then he will definitely lose no matter what he chooses. Because his sure-win method requires two turns, and if Fufu can change the die surface, then he will have already rolled a number of eight or more in the next turn and won.
So, out of the thirteen fragrances, you can only choose six.
——Bet on whether the "first mover" you chose initially will work.
"...I choose six."
Shi Sanxiang said slowly.
"Oh?"
Fufu smiled slightly.
He said leisurely: "Why, don't you choose seven?
"Didn't you say...seven is the lucky number for Miss Good Luck?"
"But the probability of six is greater than seven, right?"
Shisanxiang retorted without fear: "You have said it before, this dice cannot be affected by the power of fate."
"Will you believe what I say?"
Fufu said leisurely: "Or are you just selectively believing...information that is beneficial to you?
"Like a king who can only hear good news?"
The next moment, the dice slowly stopped.
——The number is three.
Shisanxiang’s points have returned to sixteen points.
"And I choose three, skip this round, and the points are 21."
Fufu said slowly: "The closer you are to victory, the more cautious you must be - only three points are enough, so there is no need to roll the dice.
"So, Your Highness Dmitry. Do you think now that this die is not actually the skull of a centaur? Will it be affected by Miss Good Luck? Or will you continue to stick to your own ideas and put it into practice?" Rolling out three points as a mere probability?
"Ah, yes. Of course three points is also possible, although it's not big - but I rolled 666, it doesn't seem strange that you rolled three points?
"In other words, why do you still think that after I rolled eighteen o'clock, it will not appear three o'clock? Do you regard the expected value you calculated... as inevitable?"
Fufu said leisurely: "Is this your... arrogance as a king?
"——Your Highness?"
Shi Sanxiang’s fingers trembled slightly due to nervousness.
His heart began to beat fiercely. He was panting heavily, as if he was about to suffocate... There was a lot of cold sweat behind him.
Now he's still close to ten o'clock.
He really wanted to choose ten points directly and take a gamble - but he didn't dare. ~IndoMTL.com~The probability is so low that he himself cannot believe it.
So no matter what, it will take at least two rounds for Shisanxiang to reach 26 points. On the contrary, Fufu only needs to choose three twice more to win.
The question now becomes - can he definitely get ten points in two times?
Three points are certain to be scored. In other words, as long as he scores seven points again, he will win directly.
Then the problem is back to the beginning.
Choose seven this time - just like choosing seven in the first place.
Will he win?
"Hurry up, Your Highness."
Fufu said leisurely: "The time is almost up."
"...I choose three."
Shisanxiang skipped a round with a hoarse voice.
"Are you still afraid? Even though you know it is completely meaningless?"
Seeing this choice, Fu Fu finally laughed.
He shook his head and said regretfully: "It seems you don't have the ability to be a king.
"In other words... the heir to the Principality of Winter will not be you.
"So——"
Shi Sanxiang’s heart tightened.
Can Seven win the last time?
Whether this dice can receive the power of fate or not, seven should be the best choice...
"——There is no need to choose this round. I admit defeat."
Fufu said calmly: "You don't have the heart of a king at all...then the result is already doomed."
This made Shi Sanxiang’s heart suddenly drop.
But he suddenly felt a strong emptiness in his heart——
In the end, he still didn't know whether he could guess "seven" that time.
Although he won, he was not very happy.
Shisanxiang has some regrets...
This is just a nightmare after all.
——It would have been better if I had picked seven in the round just now.
