Chapter 109: Raise and Raise Again
Chapter 109: Raise and Raise Again
Luo Xi had no objection to engaging in a real-life CS competitive battle with the opponent, and so did Ke Lan.
The two people opposite were obviously here for this and would not refuse.
"Since you want to participate in the competitive mode, then I will explain the rules of the competitive mode. This is different from the clearance mode." The rabbit in military uniform said, "The competitive mode is that two teams compete on the same field. Our real-life CS project has a total of three scenes, which will appear randomly in turn. The number of people in each of the two teams cannot be less than 2, and there can be more than one, but the number of people in the two teams must be the same. This is fair. The three scenes are divided into three modes. One is a deathmatch, that is, two teams fight until one team is completely wiped out, and the surviving team wins; the second is the bomb disposal mode, which will randomly assign roles to terrorists and counter-terrorists. If terrorists install a bomb at a designated location and detonate it, they will win even if all the members of the team are 'killed'. On the contrary, if the bomb is removed, the counter-terrorist team will win immediately; the third is the clearance mode. Whichever team clears the level first, or if the other team is completely killed during the clearance process, the other team will win."
"Please note that not all three scenarios will be played. Our rule is best of three. If a team wins two competitive modes in a row, there is no need to play the third game."
"Since it is a competitive mode, it certainly has its own characteristics. First of all, during a single game, 'death' does not really mean death, unless it is in the final round. If after death, the team you are in is judged to have lost, then the death is real. Otherwise, you will be 'resurrected' before the next round begins."
"In addition, before the competition mode begins, you can place a bet, but each player in the Recollection mode places a bet with me individually, and other people will not know what you are betting on. In other words, if a player from Team A bets on Team B to win, and he places a large bet, he can choose not to tell anyone, and then deliberately lose to the other team in the game, so that Team B or he can also get the reward for the winning bet."
"One more thing. Once someone places a bet, they can no longer withdraw from the competition. Do you understand?"
The rabbit in military uniform explained the rules very carefully and in detail.
Ke Lan obviously knew about it, so he didn't say much. It was the first time that Luo Xi heard it. He understood it, but he was surprised because a project scene in this game house could be played in such an exaggerated way.
Were these designed by the bunny in military uniform or by that Doudou?
Master!
This betting model alone is a great measure of human nature.
And there is no doubt that these rules seem fair, but in fact, there are too many pitfalls and routines hidden in them.
Luo Xi glanced at the two people who were recalling memories across from him.
Obviously, these two people also know the rules of the competitive mode.
Otherwise, he wouldn't suddenly come asking to play.
Luo Xi looked at the rabbit in military uniform at this time: "I have a question."
"Ask as much as you want!" said the rabbit in military uniform. "If you have any questions, you can ask me. This is my job."
"Okay!" Luo Xi nodded: "If you can bet, then there must be a 'dealer'."
"I am the dealer!" The rabbit in military uniform nodded.
"Then can you place a bet?" Luo Xi continued to ask.
"Of course, otherwise, I will definitely lose money."
"Will you affect the competition process, interfere with the process, or affect fairness?"
"No, this is a rule, don't worry."
“Then you will definitely lose money.”
"If I say no, then I won't. Are you sure you want to participate? If you do, you can come and place your bets with me."
Luo Xi glanced at Ke Lan, who nodded.
"join!"
"it is good!"
"Well, now the game scene has officially switched to competitive mode, and the two teams have been divided into groups."
While the rabbit in military uniform was speaking, the two people who recalled memories over there both sneered.
Luo Xi frowned.
At this moment, a few more people ran in from outside.
"Wait a minute, real-person CS in competitive mode is not common, let's join in."
This time four people ran in.
Some of the four people were laughing, while others had unfriendly looks in their eyes.
In an instant, Luo Xi understood what was going on.
Ke Lan was stunned, and her expression changed immediately. She pulled Luo Xi aside and said, "Oh no, we've been fooled!"
"These four people must be in the same group as the two people before. They came in batches to lure us into the competitive mode first, and then ran in to join the game. According to the rules, the number of people in both teams must be the same, so two people will inevitably be assigned to our team. In this way, it will be difficult to control the win or loss."
After saying this, Ke Lan blamed herself: "I should have thought of this, what a mistake!"
Luo Xi looked outside the game house. If he looked outward, he could see the opposite side and most of the scenes inside the game house. Of course, if he had a telescope, he would be able to see it more clearly.
In other words, there must be one or two people on the other side who have been observing secretly. After discovering that Ke Lan and I were going to participate in a real-life CS game, they suddenly came up with a plan and ran in to join us.
The purpose is simple.
Start the competitive mode, and let them enter the opponent's team in batches. This is equivalent to having a "traitor".
Winning two of the three competitive games is almost a sure thing.
And because of the existence of the "secret betting" mechanism, no matter it is the enemy team or the "traitor" who has infiltrated your team, as long as you bet on the right team in the end, you can make a lot of money.
But are they really doing this just to earn the rewards and bet proceeds after winning?
The winning reward is fixed, what can you bet on?
"It's too late to quit now. According to the rules of the competitive mode, once the competitive mode is activated, you cannot quit." Ke Lan's face was gloomy: "These people must be very familiar with the rules here. This means that they have been here for many rounds of days. This is not a good sign."
The words were directed to Luo Xi.
Then, Ke Lan suddenly whispered, "If we both bet on each other to win, maybe we can make some money."
I have to say that Ke Lan's mind works very quickly.
It only took a moment to foresee the "failure" of their team. Although it is not 100% certain that they will lose, the possibility of losing is very high because of the traitor.
Since there is a high probability of losing, it is better to bet on the enemy. Even if you lose, it is still a profit.
There is nothing wrong with this kind of consideration and decision. In fact, to some extent, it may be the most promising and optimal option at present.
Luo Xi said nothing.
In the current situation, there should still be some unknown key information, such as the content and rules of the bet.
Because under normal circumstances, as the 'dealer', the Military Uniform Rabbit should set a rule that all bets are taken, but the rules for betting will not be made public because they are 'secret bets' and will only be explained when a specific bet is placed.
Assuming that you are just betting on the outcome of the two teams, it is similar to a game of buying big or small.
Either big or small.
The winning chips are the bets of every bettor, but there is a possibility that if everyone bets on the same team to win, and it really gets what they want, then where do the winning chips come from?
Logically speaking, the dealer should get these chips.
However, because the dealer cannot interfere with the game, there is a situation where the situation cannot be controlled. This is definitely not in the interests of the administrators. Which brainless guy would design a scenario mechanism that is so unfavorable to them?
This makes no sense.
"Luo Xi, why don't we just join in as well?" Wu Rui, Mao Ge and Guo Zening came over at this time.
They just saw the situation here clearly.
There were six people in total in those two groups, and it was obviously intentional. In this way, when they were grouped with Luo Xi and Ke Lan, there would inevitably be two traitors among them.
Half of the four people in the team are traitors of the other side. How can we fight?
Luo Xi rejected the plan after just a brief thought.
"No, you don't have to join. I suspect one of their purposes is to get you three to join as well. That way, there will be six of them and five of us, and the numbers won't be equal. There may be other problems, for example, if they send a third group, they will still be able to sneak in."
Luo Xi shook his head.
Another point is that the more people participate, the more people will place bets in theory.
Well, if you win, you will certainly earn more.
What's more, Wu Rui, Mao Ge and Guo Zening are not good at shooting. It seems that we cannot use the word "not good at" here. It should be said that they don't understand shooting at all.
Even if they join in, they will just be three more burdens.
So Luo Xi didn't agree.
"Is it really not necessary?"
"Correct."
"Okay, if anything happens, give me a look in advance. I'm good at sneak attacks." Wu Rui came over and whispered.
"You three should be careful. They are outside and may have accomplices." Luo Xi reminded Wu Rui, believing that she could understand what he meant. Sure enough, Wu Rui was stunned at first, then she smiled and nodded to show that she understood.
Seeing that Luo Xi stopped the other three people from joining, the people over there all looked unhappy.
But soon, he sneered again.
It seems that they have other plans.
"Divide and conquer?" Luo Xi also smiled. He had figured out the other party's plan just now. "If Wu Rui and the others join, they will still find a way to sneak in a traitor, increase the stakes, and even conduct legal 'robbery' during the game. Even if they don't join, they may be happier because they think they will win and will kill me and Ke Lan in the game. In this way, the six of them will turn around and deal with Wu Rui and the other three, and they will have an absolute advantage. They will win anyway. These people are quite interesting."
Luo Xi smiled happily when he thought of this.
