Chapter 252: Hoping It's a Mistaken Deduction

Looking over the entire Instance.

Li Zhitong, Lin Xiuyuan, Cao Xiu, Zhang Meili, were all outstanding figures among the Two-Stars.

However, this level of players, in front of these fresh flowers like Chen Ran, Qiu Yinong, Dorje, Long Hui, and Diwu Zeyi, were just like green leaves, merely a foil.

It truly is, geniuses are like carps crossing the river.

And in the final circle.

Dorje, within hundreds of Time Resets, had a lie tricked out.

Long Hui, under Mental Overdraft unable to move, died in the Secret Room mechanism.

Diwu Zeyi, due to personal reasons, thirsting to obtain [freedom], risked his life, taking a dangerous move in military tactics, was perceived by Chen Ran, and died under Eternal Kingdom.

Chen Ran and Qiu Yinong won.

However, if one carefully sorted out the showdown of the final circle, one would discover...

Qiu Yinong's Wheel of Time could be called the best support of the entire field.

Chen Ran's School of Military Momentum ideology perfectly fit the Instance's Infighting mode.

One is a gold medal support.

One is a top-tier enforcer.

The two joining hands allowed them to possess the possibility of One-Stars fighting across levels against Three-Stars.

Just like a war, the victory of a war cannot just be looked at on the surface, but rather one must look at the underlying logic hidden inside.

Any form of the weak defeating the strong, is actually the strong defeating the weak.

Very obviously, the combination of Chen Ran and Qiu Yinong's ideologies and Skills produced a certain chemical reaction, achieving an effect of 1+1≥3. This is exactly the underlying logic of why they are still alive.

...

Chen Ran rubbed the center of his brows. Wanting to light a Cigarette, he discovered the Cigarette Case was long empty. At this time a pack of Cigarettes was handed over. Qiu Yinong didn't know when had already walked out of the ward:

"Fished from a corpse."

Receiving the Cigarettes, Chen Ran felt that if future Instances still had this kind of intensity, it was estimated his Points wouldn't even be enough to buy Cigarettes.

Lighting a Cigarette, Chen Ran originally thought about resting a bit first, before talking about the information understood in this Instance.

But, whether the Battle of the Two Alliances would start immediately, or start after a few days, he was somewhat unsure.

Thus, while smoking, he narrated to Qiu Yinong the information he had coaxed out from Diwu Zeyi. Of course this also included the appearance of The 9th True Self Player, as well as those words [Be careful of Qiu Yinong], he didn't hold anything back.

Actually, the two didn't take these words to heart at all. Setting aside whether it was true or false, even if it was true, with the existence of the Time Paradox, what should happen, will still happen.

There was no need to harbor groundless fears.

After finishing talking, Chen Ran handed the item he just obtained over to her.

Subsequently, he chose a ward without corpses, lying on the bed and almost falling asleep in seconds.

Only Qiu Yinong remained at the front desk.

'The timing of The 9th True Self Player's appearance is a bit too coincidental right?'

'We exactly obtained the item for "The Buddha" Instance, and he tells us to go save that True Self Player who was slapped with an NPC label.'

'Three possibilities...'

'One: This is a layout.'

'Meaning, The 9th True Self Player, on the normal timeline he is in, no one has gone to The Buddha Instance yet. His purpose of lying is to want us to go to The Buddha Instance in the future, falling into the trap of the Net of Heaven and Earth they laid out.'

'Two: It is not a layout.'

'Then that explains someone has already been to The Buddha Instance, and there really is a True Self Player slapped with the label of an NPC, needing Chen Ran's Eternal Kingdom to rescue.'

'Three: Skill!'

'Not Chen Ran's Skill, but the Alliance Leader's Skill. Carefully analyzing The 9th True Self Player's words, the focal point seemingly lies on saving the person and the effect of the Leader's Skill.'

'He said, the Alliance Leader's Skill effect is sometimes Superego, sometimes True Self.'

'Is there a possibility...'

'The Alliance Leader's Skill is actually a True Self Skill, but the effect is a bit special.'

'Simply put...'

'Whatever effect the opponent believes his Skill has, his Skill has that effect.'

'If it is the third possibility, then Chen Ran and I have both fallen for the trick.'

'At this moment, we believe the Alliance Leader's Skill is slapping players with an NPC label. Then in the future when we face him, his Skill will definitely have the effect of slapping on an NPC label.'

'It's still not over!'

'If, in the Instance, every player believes his Skill effect is all different...'

'Then, he can use out 19 different Skills!!!'

'It's still not over!'

'If he again self-hypnotizes, believing his own Skills have a main Skill inside, then he has 20 different Skills!'

'Moreover, every Skill is the result of his intentional design. For example, making The 9th True Self Player travel through time and space to tell the Leader's Skill effect to future opponents.'

'In other words, whatever Skill effect he wants, he can tell opponents in the past what Skill effect he has.'

'20 unsolvable Skills...'

'Logically speaking, even in the worst-case scenario, with Chen Ran's Eternal Kingdom around, the problem seemingly isn't very big either. But the fear is his Skill having a rule-setting effect.'

Deducing up to here, Qiu Yinong didn't dare to continue deducing. Simply because the more deduced, the more Skills the Alliance Leader might possibly have.

'Change the line of thought.'

'As everyone knows, the more powerful the Skill, the more obvious the drawback.'

'For example my Wheel of Time, the command password is the biggest drawback; for example Chen Ran's Eternal Kingdom can only compete in IQ with the opponent.'

'Then, what is the drawback of the Alliance Leader's Skill? It seems there is only one kind...'

'Cannot be used in the 18th Level!'

'Only like this can it logically explain why the Deceiver Alliance still exists. If it could be used in the 18th Level, Hell would only have one Liar-Slayer Alliance, and the Deceiver Alliance would have long been annihilated by the Liar-Slayer Alliance Leader.'

Qiu Yinong rubbed the center of her brows. If it was really like her own deduction, then the cruel degree of Hell was simply unsolvable. Being designed against by the biggest future opponent during the Newbie period...

How to play anymore?

"I hope my deduction is wrong." Qiu Yinong muttered. Very quickly she cast aside these random thoughts.

Gathering and piling up the materials in all the corpses' backpacks. Waiting until the rest ended to then review things with Chen Ran as well as the plans for next.

However, when seeing that the Instance's only water source, which was the water dispenser, was kicked onto the ground by a certain someone, the corner of her eyes twitched.

Tidying up finished.

She also casually found a ward without corpses, lying on the bed and falling into a deep sleep.

This Instance was too brain-consuming. The two people's spirits were actually already an arrow at the end of its flight.

It's estimated this sleep will last a very long time...
