My daily mountain driving, I met a fox at the beginning and got married

"I can't really explain it." Raymond looked tangled. "So far, I haven't found this match that difficult. I even feel it's a bit too easy. Since we met those two orcs at the beginning, we haven't encountered any other opponents... There are more than a hundred people in this tower, how come we can't meet anyone? According to common sense, we should keep a low profile now, yes, but if we continue to keep a low profile... I always feel like we will miss something."

This does make sense, and you will really miss a lot of things, such as valuable practical opportunities.

In this rain forest, there are no rules that prohibit certain means from being used in combat. Most people still seek stability, but as the saying goes, the bolder the people, the more fertile the land. What if someone takes advantage of others' desire for stability to attack them?

"The view is easily blocked in the rain forest. If we are on a tree, we can know the view around the tree. If we want to hide, we should hide in a tree instead of sitting under it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Layton sat up as if he had come back from the dead, picked up two people and threw them directly onto the tree!
"I'll be a good boy!"

"Mom!"

The two men cried out at the same time, and to their even greater surprise they found themselves almost thrown against the tree trunk.

Zhang Hao was quick-witted and quick-handed, grabbing onto the tree trunk to avoid falling, but Raymond was not so lucky. He was a player who relied on his brain and lacked physical strength. Even if he touched the tree trunk, he could not hold on to it, and could not bear the weight of his own body, so he fell down as expected.

Fortunately, Layton reacted quickly, caught him and threw him up again. This time, with the help of Zhang Hao, he was finally hung on the tree.

Layton also climbed up the tree swiftly. With the leaves blocking their view, they were not easily discovered in the tree. Moreover, they had just conducted a reconnaissance and there was no one else around, so they already had the advantage of vision.

Looking at Raymond's heavy breathing, Zhang Hao really didn't want to laugh, but he couldn't help it, so he could only grit his teeth and hold it back.

Of course, Raymond knew what he was laughing at, so he asked with a fake smile: "Mr. Zhang, what are you laughing at?"

Zhang Hao laughed so hard that his stomach hurt. He bit his lip and said, "Nothing. I just remembered something happy."

This time Layton couldn't help it and laughed, covering his mouth.

Raymond turned back and questioned him with the same expression.

"What are you laughing at again?"

“I also remembered happy things.”

This time, the three of them couldn't help but burst into laughter.

After a long while, Zhang Hao recovered and asked Raymond in a low voice: "I remember when we first met, I thought you were quite capable. When you were fighting with Layton, you used your arm to catch his gun. How come you are so capable and yet so weak?"

"I have to devote my whole heart to the fight. Everything happened so suddenly just now that I didn't have time to react, so I was thrown up naturally... I can actually climb up by myself."

Zhang Hao believed this, but he still didn't explain why his body was so stiff.

Raymond is not stupid, it is impossible for him to forget this.

There is only one possibility, and he is unwilling to say it.

"Close your eyes and rest for a while. There is no news from the examination center yet. I am not sure when the exam will end. If we have to stay here for ten days or half a month, we will have to find food for ourselves."

After Raymond finished speaking, he folded his arms and closed his eyes.

Zhang Hao couldn't sleep. Since coming here, he has been under increased pressure and his sleep quality is not as good as before.

Lei Dun was carefree and just lay down and fell asleep. Zhang Hao looked at them from time to time, and after making sure that their sleeping posture was ok, he continued to look up into the distance.

To be honest, he missed his friends...

When the people in this tower died, he didn't see any souls. He wasn't sure if he could still see souls, or if he still had the same energy in his body as before.

So far, his only advantage is that he can use his imagination to create some weapons that do not exist in this world.

But the people here are more powerful than each other, and those weapons may not be effective.

"Candidate No. 3, please enter the examination room."

After seeing this line of words, Hao Xie and his two teammates walked into the room in front of them.

One of them was not very strong in fighting and walked with a limp, his name was Tiantian; the other one was ruthless and didn’t talk much, always wrapped in a black robe, his name was Hansan.

Hao Xie looked at Han Shan's face and was sure that it was not the Han San he knew, but just a coincidence of name.

After learning this, Hao Xie felt relieved for some reason. At least his friend didn't suffer here. There were only three of them in the room.

The rules of this exam are quite peculiar, as it tests the level of tacit understanding between teammates.

There were three boxes in front of him, filled with tiny foam balls.

As soon as the three stood in front of the box, three huge glass covers fell from the sky and covered them.

Hao Xie hurriedly slapped the glass cover, trying to communicate with his teammates. His teammates also opened their mouths, but he could hear nothing.

Apparently, this hood not only restricts movement, but also blocks the voices of teammates.

"Now let me read out the test rules: the target number is 127. Please grab the foam balls in the box in front of you and throw them into the channel at your feet. The channel will collect the foam balls into the transparent box in the middle. The team whose number is closer to the preset answer will rank higher. The bottom 1/3 of the teams will be eliminated."

"Rule 5: The number of throws cannot be averaged. If the difference between the number of balls thrown by two people in the team is greater than the average, extra points can be added; otherwise, extra points will be deducted. Please use your own discretion. The test time is minutes, and no physical communication is allowed during the test."

While physical communication is prohibited, the rules do not prohibit eye contact.

A team with good understanding might be able to communicate through eye contact, but Hao Xie didn't think his team could do that.

Each team may have a different target number, which will allow for the most fair test of the teams' chemistry.

Hao Xie wanted to make a gesture to his teammates, but as soon as he raised his hand, he was warned by the prompt above.

"Please do not make any extra movements. Just take out the foam ball and put it directly into the channel beside your feet. The movement is very simple."

This may seem simple, but your teammates may not be able to see what you did from beginning to end.

There is a screen in front of the box, so it is not possible to show the foam ball to your teammates even if you want to, and if you show it inadvertently, you will definitely not be able to see clearly.

What do you mean by tacit understanding? We have only known each other for a few days, how can there be tacit understanding? At this level, Hao Xie felt that it was more like a test of luck.

Hao Xie had already started singing "Snowflakes Falling" in his heart. He looked up inadvertently and saw Tiantian smiling at him and shrugging her shoulders. She often did this cute action, but it seemed a little abrupt at this moment.

At this moment, Tiantian suddenly mouthed something to Haoxie.

"Do not be afraid."

That's what she said.

There's no point being afraid now, we have to start anyway because time is running out, only one minute left.

Hao Xie grabbed a few balls and threw them into the passage, then closed his eyes, trying to numb his nervousness by temporarily playing badly. Han Shan also threw some balls, but because he was wearing a long black robe, the surveillance camera might not be able to capture how many balls he threw.

However, once all the balls fall into the transparent box in the middle, the answer will be revealed naturally, so there is no need to worry about it now.

Tiantian was the last one to throw the ball.

She wasted a lot of time throwing the ball, and her expression was very focused when she lowered her head. Hao Xie almost thought she was counting.

But in this case, what is the point of counting?

The moment the time was up, all the foam balls were poured into the small transparent box in front of them.

A man in a robe came in, picked up the box and began to count the balls, slowly and carefully, and every ball was recorded.

Although Hao Xie said he wanted to give up, he still held a glimmer of hope in his heart, so he also stared at it.

As the foam balls were taken out one by one, there were fewer and fewer balls in the box.

The number was getting closer and closer to 127, and it seemed like there were only a few balls left.

Hao Xie was pleasantly surprised to find that they seemed to have a chance of winning, because he had just estimated through visual observation that the gap would not be very large. People from other teams might not be able to do this at all, and they had every hope of advancing.

Unlike Haoxie who was nervous, Tiantian started to trim her nails. The manicure she had just done before leaving was almost ruined, which was really heartbreaking to see.

When the last ball was thrown into the scoring box, the number stopped at 127.

It’s exactly 127!

They won! The team won too.

Hao Xie raised his hands in surprise and was about to share his joy with his companions, but found that they both reacted indifferently.

Han Shan still looked as cold as ice and was reluctant to show his face much on weekdays; although Tiantian had a smile on her face, she did not look surprised at all. When thinking about her previous behavior of fiddling with her nails, one could not help but wonder if she already knew the answer.

After the game, they went to the lounge. Hao Xie couldn't wait to ask, "We were able to win this exam, thanks to you, right? How did you manage to get exactly 127?"

"It's very simple. Even through the glass, I can see into your mind. I told you 'don't be afraid' just now because I wanted you to stay calm when you caught the ball. You must have a number in your mind that means something to you. I just need to know that number and the number in Brother Hansan's mind. Then I can subtract your number from 127 and get 127 accurately."

Hao Xie was shocked again.

He did think of a number just now - 99.

However, this number is too risky. If the sum of the other two people's numbers exceeds 99 by too much, their chances of winning will be greatly reduced.

Not to mention Tiantian, even if it was only Han Shan, if he threw more than 28 balls, they would be on the verge of victory. Even if Tiantian didn't throw the ball, they would have already won the game.

“How many balls did you throw?”

Hao Xie suddenly came to his senses and hurriedly asked Han San.

Han Shan turned his head indifferently and spit out a number.

"One."

Hao Xie was silent. The sum of their two numbers was exactly 100, so Tiantian only needed to throw in 27 more balls.

"So you were just counting the balls and stopped at 27?"

"That's right!" Tiantian jumped up excitedly, "My ability finally came in handy. Other teams can't read their teammates' minds like I can anytime and anywhere."

Tiantian claims that she can know her teammates' thoughts at any time and anywhere, which means that from the moment they meet, she has no secrets in front of them.

"The reason why I'm not worried that you're a bad person is because you don't have any evil thoughts in your heart. I heard you say that I look like Xiuxiu. Is Xiuxiu your friend?"

She was talking about Huo Xiuxiu. Yes, when they met, Hao Xie did think in his heart that this girl looked like Huo Xiuxiu.

"She is the daughter of a good friend of mine. We grew up together. When I saw you, I thought of her. I have been away from home for a long time..."

Tiantian saw the sadness in Haoxie's heart and wanted to comfort him, but she didn't know how to start. She knew that Haoxie was missing Xiuxiu, not Tiantian.

Soon, Hao Xie returned to normal.

"But now I have you. If you don't mind, I can call you sister. But you are so powerful, I am a little worried that you will dislike me."

This is true. Not everyone has the skill of mind reading.

Although it is common in novels, Hao Xie has never seen it in reality.

Even in Zhang Hao's case, it was difficult for him to fully understand the enemy's thoughts, but this teenage girl in front of him could do it easily...

Before Hao Xie could think about it, Tiantian suddenly rushed over and hugged him.

"How could I dislike you? This is the only skill I have. During a battle, I might be able to know the enemy's thoughts in advance and let us take precautions. But if we really have to fight, I don't know how to deal with it. This is the only use I have..."

Her words shocked Hao Xie again. If he could really know the enemy's thoughts in advance during the battle, it would undoubtedly be a huge advantage!

"Alright, stop crying. If a fight really comes up, you'll be of great use. Now that we've passed this level, let's go watch the other teams' games."

There is a small square monitor in the lounge, one of which is showing real-time footage of the game.

Some teams used lip movements and eye contact to hint frantically, but most people lacked tacit understanding, and even with winking, they were unable to understand their teammates' thoughts.

The numbers range from dozens to hundreds, with the smallest being just a few. They are completely random and there is no way for teams to learn from each other.

During the exam, many teams were kicked out of the exam room because their cheating was too obvious. The fate of those students who were kicked out of the exam room is self-evident.

After watching all the games, Hao Xie was always thinking about one team.

They were three people who looked exactly the same.

Yes, they seemed to be triplets, wearing the same clothes, with the same hairstyle, walking the same steps, and even the expressions on their faces were exactly the same. When they stood in the grid, it was as if they were copied and pasted.

People often say that there is an indescribable tacit understanding between twins, which is difficult to describe in words.

Their number was 741. As the order was issued, they all lowered their heads to look at the ball, but did not throw it all in, which made Hao Xie feel very strange. If the three of them really planned to divide it equally, the points would be deducted more; if they did not divide it equally, how could they determine how much they and their teammates had each been allocated?

At this moment, Tiantian suddenly said: "They can win, too, and none of the numbers will be wrong."

"How do you know? Can you see what other people are thinking through this thing?" (End of this chapter)
