My Level Zero System

"To put it simply, Kain didn't give any impression that this would be a serious and important meeting, but instead let you guys present your ideas in a very casual manner. This is the illusion that Kain wanted to show you."

"But... what did he do that for?"

Elna asked unconsciously, sinking deeper and deeper into confusion. Although Faith's explanation was very coherent, she understood every word he said, but when it all came together, it was too abstract.

Seeing Elna's expression, Faith pouted. Although he was used to having to explain to these idiots, talking to someone smart was still much more pleasant.

They don't even need to speak, they already understand.

"That is to say, it wasn't a situation where everyone was highly focused, understand? Don't you realize it? Everyone was just constantly giving small opinions. They weren't focused enough, and Kain had also created that unfocused situation. As for you, you were focused, too focused, so Kain was able to detect your abnormality."

Faith said, his tone cold.@@novelbin@@

Elna couldn't help but feel wronged, because this was clearly because of the mission Faith had given her.

"But... that's too... one-sided. What if I'm a very focused person?"

"So, Kain's suspicions grew even greater, but he still didn't jump to conclusions."

Faith suddenly changed her expression, showing her usual faint smile.

Then he stood up, seemingly preparing to leave.

Seeing this, Elna became flustered and hurriedly asked.

"Wait! What about my spy business?"

Elna admitted that she was a little scared. At first, she thought that Faith had overestimated Kain, but now that she recalled Kain's face, she felt like there was a thorn in her back.

Just like when facing Faith.

Against such a person, Faith was basically powerless to resist.

"Just keep your expression focused, that thing will bother Kain for a while."

Without turning back, Faith left only one sentence and left.

At an angle that Elna couldn't see, Faith's eyes flickered with something unclear.

"The fish has taken the bait."

…

"The fish has taken the bait."

Such a thought could not help but flash through Kain's mind.

The girls were all surrounding him, or more precisely, surrounding a fantasy map.

Tomorrow would have been the day of the screening round, but it wasn't until today that Kain announced that he had come up with a solution.

His eyes only glanced at Elna, then returned to normal.

He saw that she was very attentive. Your next read is at My Virtual Library Empire

Just as he predicted.

"Okay, here's the solution I came up with.

Kain said, then pointed to the white paper in front of him.

"Imagine, this is where we will be dropped off."

"Guess where you would put the sixteen flags if you were the game designer?

"Wait, isn't this just guessing?"

Mera frowned and said, Kain did not disagree, but still persisted with his original opinion.

He gave each person an identical piece of paper, and each of them would mentally mark sixteen hidden flag spots on the paper.

Mera, Myra, Katie, and Elna, although feeling confused, still followed in the end.

A moment later, four pieces of paper were returned to Kain's hands.

He considered it for a while, even nodding.

"You guys seem pretty curious, so I'll show you why."

With that, Kain folded all four sheets of paper together and held them up to the light. Because the sheets of paper were quite thin, light could pass through and string them together.

This causes the drawings on the sheets of paper to overlap perfectly.

Immediately, all the girls opened their eyes wide in surprise.

Because they saw, a vague circle was drawn from the collection of dots. For each sheet of paper with only sixteen dots, this circle was almost non-existent, but when there were four sheets of paper, increasing the number of dots to fifty-four, this circle became so clear that it could be recognized by the naked eye.

"What the hell... we're not looking at each other, are we?"

Mera said in a skeptical voice.

Myra seemed to realize something, her eyes flashed as she looked towards Kain.

"I got it!"

"When you told us to pick a location where we thought we could hide the flag, we chose it instinctively."

"Choose by instinct?"

Katie tilted her head in question, Myra nodded in response, then continued explaining.

"When there are multiple options and we have to choose randomly, we tend to choose the middle positions, which is how we find the balance point where everything has the same value. Here, we choose the most hidden flag positions in the middle areas of the map, not too close to the edge and not too close to the center."

"Am I right, Kain?"

Myra turned her eyes towards him, and she received a nod of agreement from him.

Then, Kain used a pen to draw a circle on the paper.

"Based on this speculation, the area where we have the highest chance of finding the flag is here. So after entering the competition, we will mainly search here."

"We must also be fast, find the flag, hide it before the other hungry wolves react, then pretend like nothing happened."

"Like that, the rate for us to win will increase very high, do you have any additional comments?"

No one said anything more.

…

"Faith, how do you feel?"

After returning from the meeting, Elna reported everything that happened in that group meeting to Faith.

"It seems like Kain has lost his doubts. He also doesn't let anyone speak first, and I also seem very focused. Besides, he still invited me over to share his winning method, what do you think?"

Elna finished speaking, she looked at Faith with a bit of trepidation.

She felt like she really, really did her best.

If Faith kept pointing out the same mistakes she had that day, she would cry.

"Naive, if Kain really continues to be suspicious, then that's a good thing, but if Kain has stopped being suspicious, and even shows trust in you as a team member. That means he has locked down your spy identity."
