280: Chapter 280 Treasure Land 50
Previously, the Doctor with a low ponytail had found it strange: why were those Mutated Mandrills suddenly moving in one direction? Later, after she followed that group of Mutated Mandrills toward this side, she could faintly smell a faint scent of alcohol in the air.
At that time, the Doctor with a low ponytail did not know what this alcohol scent was, so she just remained secretly vigilant. But now, she was very clearly aware of the terrifying power of this alcohol scent.
It was a scent that could completely bewilder the mind, possessing a strong, addictive quality that caused one to lose their sanity.
It was obviously impossible for that alcohol scent to drift this far; otherwise, those Mutated Mandrills would have surely been wiped out long ago and could not have survived until now.
Therefore, this could only be man-made. Someone had deliberately used some unknown means to disperse this alcohol scent throughout the Treasure Site, thereby drawing these Mutated Mandrills to move uniformly toward this space.
And the only person with the ability to do this was this White-haired Girl.
Since the other party had planned to lure these Mutated Mandrills here to sacrifice their heads to the black liquid, she must have been prepared long ago.
Hiding in the shadows was clearly to determine if the number of Mutated Mandrills was sufficient to turn the black liquid into ordinary liquid.
Thinking up to this point, the Doctor with a low ponytail didn't think there was any problem, just feeling that this White-haired Girl had indeed planned very thoroughly.
But suddenly, the Doctor with a low ponytail thought: although the other party knew the total number of Mutated Mandrills that had entered the passageway, how did she know how many Mutated Mandrill heads had already fallen into the black pool water?
There were only two possibilities. One was that the other party had been counting how many Mutated Mandrills drank the black pool water. This was, of course, impossible.
Then the only answer was the second one: that the other party had counted exactly how many Mutated Mandrills she had killed while fighting her way in.
In this way, by using the total number of Mutated Mandrills known to have entered the passageway and subtracting the number of Mutated Mandrills they had killed, it was possible to know how many mandrill heads had already fallen into the black pool water.
So now, a problem arose.
Previously, the Maintenance worker in a faded leather jacket had already verified to them that after being bewitched by the alcohol scent in the air and then regaining their senses, they did not remember all the memories from when they were bewitched.
If that was the case, then how exactly did that White-haired Girl count how many Mutated Mandrills she had killed?
There was only one answer: at that time, the White-haired Girl had not lost her sanity at all; she had just been pretending.
After the Doctor with a low ponytail finished explaining this chain of reasoning, not only were the three players present stunned, but the audience in the main livestream room for this Treasure Site game were also stunned.
"Holy crap, holy crap, although I didn't understand it, it sounds so awesome!"
"This time we don't have to wait for the experts on the forum to analyze it; this Doctor with a low ponytail has already explained to us how the Moon God determined how many heads had fallen into the pool filled with black liquid. Let me just say a few words here: Moon God, you are my god!"
"That's simple then."
"It really seems to be like that. I watched the screen recording playback, and when the Moon God arrived in front of the passageway for the second time, she did indeed arrive at the same time as those Mutated Mandrills. Then the Moon God quickly hid. Looking at it this way, the Moon God was secretly recording the number of Mutated Mandrills at that time!"
"Awesome, truly awesome. This timing is so precise; I can only say, as expected of this woman."
"That's not the point! The point is, did the Doctor with a low ponytail just mean that the White-haired Beauty didn't actually lose her sanity because of that alcohol scent in the air before? Huh?"
"Is this some kind of palace intrigue? That White-haired Beauty first gave the prop containing the antidote to the Doctor with a low ponytail, then told the other party to 'use it at a critical moment,' and then pretended to be controlled and lose her sanity, when in reality, she was completely fine and could even count one by one how many Mutated Mandrills she killed?"
"The person above explained it in an easy-to-understand way. This really is mind-blowing. Unfortunately, I'm uncultured, so one 'holy crap' covers it all!"
"666, if the Doctor with a low ponytail hadn't said it, who could have guessed that the White-haired Girl was just pretending just now?"
"I guess the White-haired Beauty actually has some kind of prop that can resist that alcohol scent, just like those candles."
"Can anyone explain to me, what is the White-haired Expert trying to gain?"
"Maybe she just wanted to test if her teammates were reliable?"
"Pretending she was going to drink that black liquid to take the opportunity to see if her teammates would save her. Not bad, this White-haired Beauty is very scheming."
...
The Doctor with a low ponytail thought the same thing.
Thinking of the terrifying combat power this White-haired Girl had displayed earlier, she feared that if she hadn't taken out that small box filled with Sichuan peppercorns and star anise to save the White-haired Girl at that time, the other party would have directly attacked and killed her.
She recalled how she had truly hesitated about whether to save this White-haired Girl, and in an instant, the Doctor with a low ponytail felt cold sweat seeping out from her back.
With the blade skills and abilities of the White-haired Girl opposite her, even if she had luckily managed to escape, she would definitely have suffered very serious injuries.
By then, wanting to escape this Miracle Escape Live Stream Game alive would be nothing but a pipe dream.
After listening to this series of analyses from the Doctor with a low ponytail, the air suddenly fell into a dead silence.
The Plump Boss and the Maintenance worker in a faded leather jacket were not in the loop, so naturally, they weren't as sharp as the Doctor with a low ponytail. Therefore, hearing the words of the Doctor with a low ponytail now, the two of them finally realized everything the White-haired Girl had designed earlier.
This was too terrifying. If it weren't for the words the Doctor with a low ponytail had just spoken, they probably wouldn't have realized that the White-haired Girl's previous appearance of losing her sanity was actually faked, even if they had left this Miracle Escape Live Stream Game.
The Plump Boss had previously thought that when the White-haired Girl handed the small box filled with Sichuan peppercorns and star anise to the Doctor with a low ponytail, it was to let herself fall into a state of losing her sanity.
He guessed that the White-haired Girl might have some kind of prop that required this state to unleash its maximum power. Later, the way the White-haired Girl slaughtered everyone confirmed his conjecture.
Yet now you were telling him that the White-haired Girl was actually faking it at the time? That she hadn't lost her sanity at all?
A chill suddenly rose in the heart of the Plump Boss.
Because he suddenly realized that the other party's action might not only have been to test whether the Doctor with a low ponytail was trustworthy, but also to successfully lower the guard of the other players.
