Holy Crap! Every Base Has Been Taken!
However, Nakano Yuu said.
"I don't want to be the leader of Class D. I find that terrifying."
"..."×N.
"&"By Chabashira.
Chabashira only just realized that Nakano Yuu seems to have developed PtSD. He's incredibly averse to anything related to the representative or leader of Class D, even though Class D isn't some kind of monster.
"Here are my terms."
Ryuuen said.
"The transaction is successful, so the 12 million points are yours."
"Nakano-kun."
Hirata has already gained the support of most of the students in the class, or rather, everyone wants to seize this opportunity.
If 10 million is divided equally, each person will have 250,000 points; if 12 million is divided equally, each person will have 300,000 points.
That's pretty good.
And this is just one exam! Yet you can profit so much.
"..."
Horikita.
Horikita's gaze remained unchanged, while Kushida felt there must be something he didn't understand.
If Nakano Yuu agrees, the class will receive a guaranteed living allowance for at least one year.
But this was entirely for the benefit of the class, so what did he do? He didn't profit from it.
"I really don't want to be the leader of Class D."
"Nakano Yuu said."
"But all you really want is for the leader of Class D to be revealed during the 'guess the leader' segment."
"Therefore, I suggest that Hirata take on the role of team leader for Class D, and the team leader card can be made now and shown to you."
As he said this, he looked at Hirata.
"Hirata, are you ready to take on this responsibility?"
"Can."
Hirata did not hesitate.
He wouldn't refuse anything that was important for the class.
"..."X4.
OK.
It's confirmed, this guy's up to no good.
Almost immediately, Chabashira, Amasawa, Horikita, Kushida all found out. Nakano Yuu watched as the deal with the other class was reached, and even unconditionally agreed to Ryuuen's proposal. It wasn't some kind of act or a trap.
Instead, this guy is just calmly watching all of this happen, which suggests only one possibility.
He must have already achieved his goal.
Yes.
If they initially suspected Nakano Yuu had some ulterior motives, but he didn't interfere at all, then they were mistaken. It seems Nakano Yuu has already achieved his goal of making money.
"The 10 million points cost me and Katsuragi to cover the 300 base points for Class D, while the 2 million points..."
Meanwhile, Ryuuen received the team leader card from Chabashira-sensei Hirata. The card was green and had the team leader's name written on it.
Hirata Yousuke.
According to the rules in the manual.
Once the team leader's identity is confirmed, it cannot be changed arbitrarily.
Therefore, it's basically confirmed that guessing the Class D leader correctly will earn you 50 points.
"Then please leave your handprints as well."
Meanwhile, Kushida wrote out the agreement and handed it to Katsuragi and Ryuuen.
The two had no objections and wrote their names down.
With the tripartite agreement finalized, it means that although Class C have spent points, they no longer need to use up their class's base points. This alone puts them far ahead of Class B.
"After this exam, Class B will no longer be Class B."
Katsuragi said to Ichinose.
"We've made a wasted trip."
The students in Class B were somewhat downcast.
If it were a matter of using 5 million points to ensure their class's base score wasn't deducted, they would find it expensive but acceptable. However, a price of 10 million or even 12 million points was simply beyond their comprehension.
"Let's go back first. Although we have to spend basic points to buy supplies, if we're frugal enough, we can still keep most of our basic points."
"Ichinose said."
The students in Class B quickly rallied.
"Hehe."
Ryuuen and Katsuragi exchanged a glance.
Then.
Twenty minutes later, the two realized they had been scammed.
72
Chapter 72 Holy crap! All the outposts have been captured!
Because an agreement was reached, the students from the other classes quickly left.
Katsuragi and Ryuuen were together, heading in the same direction. This was partly because they were closer to the beach, and partly probably to be wary of each other.
Because Katsuragi and Ryuuen currently know about most of the bases on the island.
Therefore, to be on the safe side, we should discuss the allocation of resources.
Moreover, the island isn't small; even the 12 locations listed and marked by Katsuragi require a journey of one or two hours to complete.
Therefore, if the outposts can be divided into areas and each person is responsible for one area, that would naturally be a good situation.
Because you can farm the same stronghold 3 times a day, and you can only farm stronghold points a maximum of 18 times a week on this island, the more strongholds you occupy, the more travel you have to do and the more Matoba you might be seen by students from other classes.
Therefore, regional division can effectively reduce the risk of exposure and workload.
Only.
"You've decided that Class D' s leader will receive 2 million points. Do you want Class A to split that equally and then pay 1 million?"
Katsuragi said.
At the end of the exam, there's a guessing game for the team leader. If you correctly guess the team leader of Class D, you get an extra 50 points.
Not only can 50 points bring the class a total of 200,000 yuan in living expenses each month, but if they can be maintained until graduation, they can also add a total of 7 million Private Points to the class.
Therefore, Katsuragi thinks it's reasonable for him to spend 1 million Private Points.
Or rather, he didn't think of that at the time, and ended up benefiting from Ryuuen's success.
Now that the team leader for Class D has been confirmed, they're basically getting 50 points for free in the evaluation.
"This fee is my personal suggestion."
Ryuuen said.
There's no need to force you to pay together. So it's fine if you don't pay.
Oh?
Katsuragi was somewhat surprised, probably because he remembered that when Yahiko hired Ryuuen before, he only paid 500,000 points, while 1 million points was equivalent to hiring Ryuuen twice.
Surprisingly, Ryuuen is now incredibly extravagant, seemingly disregarding the 1 million points.
"It's a kind of insurance measure."
Ryuuen, however, said...
"I've always felt that Nakano Yuu from Class D is cursed."
"He can not only anticipate the direction of the exam, but he can even provide some solutions."
"And Class D really does seem hopeless right now, but I still don't want Class D to get back on its feet."
In other words, Ryuuen was actually trying to keep an eye on Nakano Yuu Yu.
Katsuragi also thought Ryuuen's way of thinking was good, so he continued to listen.
"So if Class D reveals their leader, then even if Nakano Yuu wants to participate in the leader guessing game with a 0-point challenge, he still won't get a single point."
Ryuuen said.
The words were a bit awkward to say, but Katsuragi quickly understood them.
Because this exam's score consists of three parts: the basic 300 points, the base points for capturing bases, and the base points for capturing bases—both of these were taken by Nakano Yuu.
However, besides selling these items, Class D has another way to score points: guessing the team leader.
So you can start with 0 points, but if you guess the team leader of another class correctly, you still have a chance to get extra points.
However, Ryuuen bought out Nakano Yuu's scoring plan with 2 million points because his Class D leader's information was exposed and guessed correctly by the three classes A, B, and C. So even if he guessed the information of the three leaders of the other classes correctly, he would still end up with -50x3 + 50x3 = 0 points.
Therefore, this is a true test result of 0.
Instead of giving Class D the opportunity to not only collect living expenses but also to receive evaluation points.
Ryuuen is keeping an eye on Nakano Yuu.
I see.
So this is how the 2 million points from Ryuuen are used.
Furthermore, Katsuragi understood why Ryuuen would bring this up in front of the students in Class B, and why the students in Class B would watch as spectators as the leader of Class D was selected and received the leader card.
The purpose was to get Class B involved so that Class D would lose points as well.
Ryuuen believes that Nakano Yuu from Class D is more dangerous than someone from Class B.
Katsuragi realized that he might need to update his views on Ryuuen.
Originally, Katsuragi thought that Ryuuen was just a student in Class C. Although he had performed better than the average Class C student in the past two months, he was only somewhat outstanding. But now, Katsuragi felt that Ryuuen was not simple.
But wouldn't that make it seem like the students in Class A were just passive?
The students from Class A were surprisingly shocked by the students from Class C.
Therefore, Katsuragi was determined to regain his dignity.
"Then Ryuuen."
Suddenly, Katsuragi asked, "Are you the leader of Class C?"
"..."
Ryuuen.
"So, is your sidekick Totsuka Yahiko the leader of Class A?"
Ryuuen retorted.
Why do you say that?
Katsuragi remained expressionless, trying his best to look puzzled.
Actually, I just wish I hadn't asked Ryuuen if he was the leader of Class C.
Because when he followed Sudo to the Class C area to interfere with Ryuuen, he secretly arranged for Yahiko to go to the White Tower, which was obviously an implicit agreement to let Yahiko take the lead. So, while he, Yahiko, and Ryuuen went to the Class D, Ichinose took over the White Tower and then found the stronghold that he had not discovered.
It could be said that he gained the initial advantage.
