The Man Standing at the Top of the Food Chain

After Yuqinyi last time, this time Lin Chen finally understood a truth, that is, when facing Tang Cheng, he had to learn to say "no". He who drank sleepless retreats and finally forgot something, he no longer wants to recall it.

"Then, although there is still a lot of time, but there is nothing to do now anyway, let's discuss the arrangement of the regional battle." It is the fourth day of returning to the reincarnation space, and there are still six days before the regional battle. On the sofa, while playing the game, he said, "First of all, students who like single-swiping, please raise your hand."

Lin Chen and Yu Qinyi immediately raised their hands.

"Hey!" Tang Ya felt that she was being ignored, and said hastily, "Isn't it right? Why do you all choose to fight alone? If we fight alone, there is no point in discussing together, and since the regional battle is the battlefield of all challengers , it means that those masters at the upper level may also meet, isn't it more beneficial to form a team."

"First of all, you have to have a team." Tang Cheng stared at the screen and said without looking back.

"So just a few of us can..."

"The minimum team size is five people."

"Then let's find someone else."

"do not want!"

"do not want!"

As soon as Tang Ya's words came out, not only Tang Cheng, but also Yu Qinyi and Lin Chen all refused. As the saying goes, they can gain a sense of wisdom if they say no.

"Why?" Tang Ya asked puzzled.

Lin Chen said: "There are too many pig teammates."

Yu Qinyi said: "There are too many people and there is no rhythm."

"..." Tang Ya suddenly felt helpless.

Among the four people present, Tang Ya is the most normal, whether it is character or values, but only for the four people here, she is the most normal but also the most different.As an ordinary person with almost everything, Tang Ya has always kept her attitude low, or... she always looks at things from the most ordinary perspective, so she also believes in the principle of strength in numbers , although she also knows that there are so many people that it is inevitable to be confused.But as long as you check in advance, it is not difficult to find a teammate with decent character and strength. After all, there are so many challengers in the space, it is impossible for everyone to be a pig teammate.

But unfortunately, her point of view is not applicable to the three people on the opposite side.

Lin Chen was already afraid of being bullied by the pig teammates. If it was just these few people present, he would be at ease, but if he brought in strangers who didn't know him at all.And it was the most important regional battle, he didn't have the courage to jump into such a pit.

And Yu Qinyi, as a middle school loli, has a saying called the history of the second class since ancient times, which means that most of the second class people have a dark history that cannot be recalled. It is not difficult to imagine that her childhood must have been very miserable. For example, she was rejected by her classmates in the study class... In addition, she would receive such a lonely job as a battle mage.Her incomparably strong Lone Ranger style can be seen in all aspects.

And more directly, if they really want to form a team with the strength of the two of them, no matter whether they join other ready-made teams or lead a team by themselves, there is no pressure at all, but they don't.

As for Tang Cheng, let alone.

Therefore, Tang Ya's proposal to form a team has hardly been said yet.It has already been unanimously rejected, which makes her feel quite powerless, "Since you all agree to form a team, what else can we discuss?"

"Of course it is the main point in the regional battle." Lin Chen sat up straight and said solemnly, "Actually, before I came here this time, I went to find the woman who had disclosed the information to me before, and then paid a little price. .I bought some news from her."

Tang Cheng reflexively moved his gaze away from the screen, and asked curiously, "Compensated dating?"

"Compensation dating your sister! I bought the news with survival points and reincarnation cards!"

"Oh, that's the male PR." Tang Cheng nodded, and then concentrated on playing the game again.

Yu Qinyi said, "It's very generous of you to share with us the information you got in exchange for your survival point."

"Uh, it's really nothing. After all, I made the most money in the last dungeon." Lin Chen smiled indifferently.Then he said: "First of all, we all know that all the challengers who participate in the regional battle will be placed in the same instance. No matter if they have only experienced a few instances, they are weak and weak who barely pass through by relying on shit luck. , or have gone through countless dungeons, and the celebrity challenger standing at the apex of the reincarnation space will be in the same world, so... At this time, we can't help but think, such an arrangement will affect the strength Wouldn't it be too unfair for weak people?"

"En!" Tang Ya and Yu Qinyi nodded immediately. They had thought about this question a long time ago, and they also asked their auxiliary elves, but they didn't get any answers. In fact, many challengers did not participate in the regional battle. one of the reasons.

"Could it be that there is some secret in it?" Tang Ya continued to ask.

Lin Chen nodded and said with a smile: "That's right, although such an arrangement may indeed cause the weak to be crushed to death by the powerful at will, but this possibility is almost negligible, because even the same copy has different effects. The areas are the novice area, the adventure area, and the decisive battle area."

"For example, those of us who participated in regional battles for the first time, the initial starting point is in the novice area, and those who have played several regional battles and have some experience will generally be arranged in the adventure area. For the strong, they are basically in the decisive battle zone."

"Can't people from different districts enter each other?" Yu Qinyi asked.

"It's possible." Lin Chen shook his head, "But it's not worth it."

"What do you mean?"

"As you all know, the dungeon of the regional battle is very, very huge. The public area alone is the size of more than a dozen earths, and the novice area is almost equivalent to two earths. So, if we take the average of 1 people Scattered across the earth, without deliberately looking for it, what is the probability that the first person encounters any one of the other 9999 people in a limited time?"

"Uh...it should be very small." Tang Ya calculated in her mind, excluding special abilities and unscientific coincidences, the probability of such two encounters is very small.

"But the challenger is not an ordinary person." Yu Qinyi objected.

Lin Chen smiled and said, "The fifth area is also not an ordinary environment. Even the novice area has many dangers and some special areas. It is already very difficult to survive, and it will not give you extra free time to go. What kind of chance encounter? Moreover, how many challengers enter the novice area each time? Even if you add those challengers who did nothing the previous time and were still placed in the novice area for the second time, reaching four digits is already the limit, so Distance is one of them."

"The second is the checkpoint between regions. There will be a checkpoint between every two different areas. If the challenger wants to enter other areas, he must first pass this checkpoint, and this is actually the same as fighting a boss. The difficulty Very big, especially the difficulty from high to low... For example, if you go from the novice area to the adventure area, your level boss is just the big devil Piccolo who debuted, but if you return from the adventure area to the novice area, then your The stage boss could be Frieza."

"The third and most important point is benefit." Having said that, Lin Chen paused slightly, "In regional battles, there is no reward for killing the challenger, and of course there is no punishment, except for the basic survival In addition to the rewards, more rewards come from the exploration of the world, such as the White Aviary Cloth placed under the thousands of miles of glaciers, or the gourd growing on the top of the cloudy mountain, or even the ghost hidden in a certain sky city. What treasures... For challengers, finding these things, or exploring a new area for the system to give rewards is the most valuable act, and killing other challengers without any conflict of interest is purely a waste of time. Stay full... In this regional battle where opportunities and time are limited, no one will do things that harm others and benefit themselves."

"So, the mentality of worrying about being crushed to death by the masters is pure persecution paranoia. The masters don't have enough time to find equipment for themselves, so they don't care about those scum with only five combat effectiveness in the novice area." Lin Chen With a sympathetic expression, "It seems that in reality, the rich second generation will only compete with the rich second generation, and will not seek superiority from Diaosi... Of course, if there is enmity between the two, and they are deeply If you're thinking about it, it's another matter."

"So that's how it is." Hearing what he said, the two girls immediately understood.

"So, we don't need to deliberately form a team to participate in the regional battle for the first time. It is quite interesting to explore alone." Lin Chen said, but in fact, there is another reason that he didn't say.

That was the fish that slipped through the net in the hostile challenger camp in the previous dungeon.

Based on his conjecture at the time, if the other party managed to escape back, considering the pressure of the other three districts on the East Court, they were very likely to be targeted in the regional battle, although after getting this information, this possibility It has shrunk a lot, but it still cannot be ignored, so it is the best choice to split up in the regional battle... In this way, even if that kind of thing does happen, it can avoid being caught up in the net.

Of course, it would be best if nothing happened... Lin Chen thought so in his heart.

……

Time flies, whether it is cultivation or leisure, it will always slip past you quietly, and then start another period of time. For some challengers who do not participate in regional battles, after the ten-day rest period ends, They can enjoy eleven days of rest again, but for more challengers, they will enter a dungeon with a survival rate of only 10%.

"The regional battle is about to begin. Does the current challenger 9527 accept it? If you accept it, 1000 survival points will be deducted and you will be sent to the fifth area immediately. If you do not accept it, please click No."

"Accept." Of course Tang Cheng didn't hesitate.
