268. Set up a hundred-meter chessboard to checkmate 'Da Zhang' with the moves of Chinese chess_1
If it's an intelligence quiz and you can only ask Bi Ji for help on the spot, that would be a bit too tragic.
In Lin Yi's mind, intelligence and Bi Ji were not equal.
Zi Ji's expression changed to one of surprise for a moment, but then relaxed considerably when she thought that even if she answered incorrectly, the quality of the reward wouldn't decrease.
"You will have three chances to answer each question, and if the third answer is still wrong, the question will be ultimately judged as incorrect," Lin Yi explained the final rule and then looked at the two Ji, asking, "Are you ready?"
Bi Ji turned her head towards Zi Ji, who nodded nervously, "Rea-ready, please, Golden Dragon Lord, ask the question."
Lin Yi nodded, as the System panel was in the process of selecting questions.
Zi Ji was extremely nervous. Would she appear foolish if she couldn't answer?
Would she be unable to lift her head in front of humans as a ferocious beast?
Bi Ji, on the other hand, seemed very calm...
That's right, Big Sister Bi Ji never cared if others thought she was dumb...
[Question selection complete]
Lin Yi looked at the first question and twitched at the corner of his eye. The System had only provided the question and hadn't displayed the answer beside it; it seemed he would have to wait for the end of the question for the reveal.
This System really knows how to play its cards close to the chest, Lin Yi thought with an inward sneer and then read the question to Zi Ji.
"First question: There were two people who fell into a trap, the dead man is called a dead man, what do you call the one who's still alive?"
Zi Ji's eyes widened in surprise. Was the question really this simple?
Could it be that the Golden Dragon Lord was showing special consideration?
Zi Ji suddenly understood, no wonder he was called the Golden Dragon Lord; Lin Yi must have something going on with the Silver Dragon Lord for the question to be this easy!
She thought proudly, then answered with a smile, "Alive!"
"Answer incorrect, you have two more opportunities," Lin Yi said, noting the red exclamation mark on the panel.
Zi Ji was dumbfounded.
Answer incorrect?!
The living person isn't called 'alive,' then what should he be called?
The audience below was also puzzled and exchanged looks.
This kind of question was unheard of; 'alive' as a wrong answer.
"Called... Living Dead?" Zi Ji ventured a guess.
The panel still showed the red exclamation mark, and Lin Yi continued, "Answer incorrect."
Ah?! Wrong again?!
Zi Ji looked at Lin Yi, doubting life itself.
Swallowing hard, if she answered wrongly one more time, the question would be a straight failure.
In desperation, Zi Ji turned to ask Bi Ji without much hope, "Big Sister Bi Ji, do you know what the person who survived is called?"
"Goose Goose thinks he'd be called 'help!'~" Bi Ji said, looking earnestly at Zi Ji.
Finally, a green "pass" icon flashed on the panel!
Lin Yi raised his eyebrows, a bit surprised as he said, "Answer correct, a dead man is called a dead man, and the living one, would indeed call for 'help.'"
Nani?!
Everyone was astonished, and Zi Ji's jaw almost dropped a meter in surprise.
The answer was so unexpected, but...but, you know what, it actually made sense.
The surviving man doesn't call out 'help,' then what does he say?
Lin Yi was trying to keep a straight face; Earth's brain teasers wreaked havoc in Douluo, but he never expected that Bi Ji could so casually give the correct answer.
Was she always the embodiment of the wise fool?
"Big Sister Bi Ji, you're amazing!" Zi Ji hugged Bi Ji in sheer amazement.
"Hehe."
Goose Goose laughed happily.
Feeling like their IQ was being rubbed in the dirt... Bi Bidong, Gu Yuena, and others wiped the sweat from their foreheads with strange expressions.
The panel then continued to display the second question.
Lin Yi turned to Zi Ji and asked, "What food is discharged from the buttocks?"
?
Golden Dragon Lord, are you serious?
Zi Ji started to question her entire dragon life.
But then she suddenly remembered something Bi Ji mumbled to the gourd sprouts this morning: "You have to grow up nicely, so then I can feed you with manure."
Could this be a question about plants?
"Manure?"
Lin Yi looked at her strangely, "Answer incorrect... I asked about food, do dragon-class creatures really consider poop as food?"
Gu Yuena's face darkened upon hearing this: "Zi Ji! Are you using your brain when you answer?!"
"I... I don't know!"
Zi Ji was on the verge of tears now; she could only turn to Bi Ji for help.
"Big Sister Bi Ji, what food comes out of the buttocks?"
Bi Ji immediately turned around, sticking out her backside, "It's eggs, oh! I saw the boss secretly stealing Wind Demon Eagle eggs to eat. The eggs come out from the Wind Demon Eagle's bum."
Di Tian's face stiffened.
At this moment, Gu Yuena distanced herself from Di Tian with disgust.
"Answer correct," Lin Yi confirmed as a green light glowed on the panel once more.
"You've answered two questions correctly; the Prop Card is activated, granting a chance to upgrade the reward successfully. If you answer the third question correctly, there's a chance of randomly receiving a higher-quality Gold Intermediate reward. If incorrect, the reward quality will still be promoted by one level and remain unaffected," Lin Yi explained.
After hearing Lin Yi's words, Zi Ji nodded again, "Alright, please continue with the third question, Golden Dragon Lord."
Lin Yi read from the panel:
"What answer can rationally respond to any question?"
Zi Ji's face collapsed; the difficulty of the third question suddenly seemed much higher.
What answer can rationally respond to any question?
Zi Ji fell into a muddle of thought, and after a long while, she turned numbly to look at Bi Ji again.
