"Ms. Nakiri, I hope you can realize the seriousness of the matter. If you conceal it, the danger it will cause will not only endanger us, but also your life safety."
The woman with long black hair and a black windbreaker stared intently. At this moment, she was very sure that Erina Nakiri was hiding something important.
Sure enough, some people just don't know the seriousness of the matter. They are obviously just newcomers, but they just honestly trust the old players, tell them their discoveries, and notify them in time. This is the key, not concealing it.
"I see."
Erina Nakiri pursed her lips and hummed.
She knew that if she didn't say it, she would lose Leng Shuang's trust.
The consequence of losing trust is something she cannot bear.
Without the care of the veteran players, will she be able to survive the subsequent sports events?
For example, the blue sea octopus this time. If Lin Ye hadn’t eaten all the octopuses by himself, she would have died after eating a few bites!
Erina Nakiri looked at the players around her. In addition to the team that finished eating the black bugs first, there were also problems with members of other groups.
Among these ingredients there are many dangerous and lethal mutations.
You can't successfully pass the level and survive by relying on yourself alone.
Nakiri Erina exhaled lightly and said, "It's like this, I can taste the beef."
"Ok?"
Leng Shuang was stunned, still a little confused.
"I haven't eaten anything yet, but I can taste the flavor of beef. If I analyze and judge, it should be the flavor of the beef that Zero holds."
Leng Shuang immediately looked at Lin Ye, who was eating with big mouthfuls, looking very satisfied.
"I tasted octopus before, when Zero was eating octopus."
These two incidents are definitely not a coincidence.
“Taste sharing?”
Leng Shuang frowned slightly.
Why does this happen?
Why has it been Erina Nakiri and Zero?
What special rules did the two of them trigger?
Erina Nakiri is a newcomer, so this time's 'taste sharing' can't possibly be Erina Nakiri's skill, so is it Zero?
If it was Zero, why did Zero do this? What was the meaning of sharing taste? Could it alleviate the erosion of the weird smell? And resist the danger brought by the food?
In that case, doesn't that mean Zero is making Erina Nakiri take certain risks and suffer certain injuries?
But this guess made Leng Shuang's heart palpitate. This was a manifestation of Lin Ye's care and concern for her.
And if not, then...why?
Leng Shuang couldn't figure it out.
After Lin Ye returns, she will inform Lin Ye and wait for Lin Ye's analysis and judgment.
Erina Nakiri waited silently. She had been confused until now, but could not find a reasonable explanation.
"Don't worry, this anomaly is not life-threatening. Wait until Zero comes back and we'll ask him what he thinks."
Erina Nakiri nodded.
Right now,
Lin Ye stuffed the last piece of crazy red beef into his mouth.
"Crunch, crunch..."
Tastes good, great mouthfeel.
Compared with octopus meat, he prefers this crazy red beef.
And because of this crazy red beef, his mental strength has also increased to a certain extent.
Lin Ye originally thought that his superpowers would not be able to increase any attribute points of meat products like beef no matter how much he devoured them, but the beef in this strange copy that was affected by the strange power contributed a little mental power to him.
"Not bad,"
"It tastes good,"
Lin Ye was satisfied. He now wanted to try the meat products from other groups. Perhaps they could bring him more attribute point surprises.
"We're done,"
"We are the 18th group, the host is coming over here."
One person stretched out his hand and shouted,
The man in the suit and mask quickly appeared, "Congratulations,"
Eighteen groups completed the task and the ranking was exactly 18th.
Compared to some of the vegetable and fruit groups, beef took more time to eat.
However, with Lin Ye's help, at least the four of them have not gone crazy so far.
"Thank you, Brother Ling. Thank you so much. If it weren't for you, one of us would definitely go crazy."
"We will always remember your kindness and will never forget it."
“If there is a chance for us to be of use and provide assistance in future projects, we will never turn it down.”
……
The young men from Group 18 expressed their opinions to Lin Ye one after another.
He was the temporary captain of Group 18 and even benefited from being a veteran player.
If even veteran players have to ask them for help in subsequent projects, it shows how difficult that project was, and the possibility of them passing it alone will be even smaller.
Therefore, his statement this time is more beneficial than harmful.
"I will not pretend that I have not heard this promise,"
Lin Ye's words stunned the four of them.
"If it's just a polite remark, there's no need for that."
"No, this is what we really say, at least I am serious, Brother Ling, I am serious,"
The other three hesitated for a while, but quickly responded and expressed their attitudes.
"it is good,"
Lin Ye nodded, "I'll remember that. I hope you won't break your promise."
He smiled and waved.
The four of them watched Lin Ye leave.
Lin Ye noticed the players who were affected by the food.
Some players were already unconscious, probably because they were drunk. Lin Ye noticed that they were purple granular fruits, probably mutated grapes.
He also saw some players flapping their hands as if they wanted to fly, and they had fallen into an illusion.
"I see,"
Lin Ye thought of something and sighed.
"What did you find?"
Leng Shuang asked,
Nakiri Erina was also curious.
"This time, the 'rice bucket' is not just a test of luck, but also a test of the sense of unity and cooperation."
Luck refers to what ingredients you draw.
If we work together...
"The more people there are, the faster the food will be eaten. If someone is lazy or slacking off, it will affect the final result."
But Leng Shuang always felt that this was not what Lin Ye wanted to express.
"I now have a way for everyone to get through without any problems."
"Forehead!"
"It's just too late."
Lin Ye's words have also attracted the attention of the people around him.
"As for the performance of the players who have problems so far, they all ate too much and caused mutations and weirdness. Abnormalities have occurred. What if several groups of players cooperate with each other and eat the food equally?"
Lin Ye's words woke up everyone around him.
If the ingredients they eat are only a small part of each rice bucket, then there is no need to worry about the harm caused by the ingredients.
"So this is what you mean by unity and cooperation,"
Leng Shuang sighed,
She really didn't expect it.
Generally speaking, each family takes care of their own business, solves the food they need to eat, and completes the task as quickly as possible. This will definitely lead to players mutating, going crazy, and dying due to different intakes and physical fitness.
But Lin Ye's method can indeed greatly reduce casualties.
But the prerequisite is that all participating players must treat each other sincerely, unite and cooperate, and pursue win-win results. Otherwise, this "win-win" cannot be achieved.
"Zero, don't blame yourself. Even if you thought of this idea and proposed it early on, it is not certain that any player would agree to it. Who would be willing to put their life and death safety in the hands of others?"
Once someone stops eating after seeing that the ingredients in his rice bucket are finished, it means that the player with the corresponding ingredients in the rice bucket is in trouble.
If everyone can fulfill their promises and do what they promised, it can be a win-win situation. But the problem is that without any friendship or understanding between strangers, how can this awareness be easily established?
"I know, but..."
Lin Ye looked at the remaining players who were still eating and shouted,
"The remaining players,"
"If you don't want to go crazy or die due to consuming too much food, find other groups of players nearby to cooperate and eat each other's food."
One sentence woke everyone up.
Many players were afraid to eat more because of the previous abnormalities that caused players to go crazy, mad, or even die, for fear that they would also be harmed by the food.
but now,
Lin Ye's method immediately reminded them that they could also cooperate with other groups for mutual benefit.
"I suggest that the group that eats meat cooperate with the group that eats fruits or vegetables. Time is running out, so speed up!"
……
'Crash...'
Someone took action.
"Beautiful lady, please cooperate with us! We have peaches here, they are big, sweet and delicious."
"Brother, our group will be responsible for eating your shrimps, and our radishes are left to you."
"Shit! I've already found a team to work with. What should I do? Who can help me?"
"Come join our two groups! Eat some."
……
The remaining dozen or so groups worked together.
Now that the sense of crisis brought by the food has disappeared, the worried players are eating frantically.
The atmosphere in the entire square is positive, full of hope and light.
There's one minute left until the end.
All 35 groups completed the task.
