When it comes to puzzle solving, different people like different parts.

Some people like the process, the spark of inspiration jumps between nerves and makes them want to stop, some people like the result, and the satisfaction of the moment of success is irreplaceable.

And Ann Yizhi, he is the third category.

Like to show off......

"Ahh

With a big laugh coming out of his mouth, Ann pointed in the direction of the roof, as if he had seen a treasure buried somewhere through the layers of floors:

"Pattern, still pattern!"

Everyone looked at him like a madman, but An Yizhi didn't care, and posed to himself:

"Edward. Pickles, I have to say that you are indeed extraordinary, but you dare to challenge me, the master of the supernormal law, the archmage of billions of spells, hahahahaha, courage, hahahaha! ”

"Mr. Tu, Mr. An, ...... this?"

Anasta looked at Tu Hongyu with a confused expression, the latter covered his face, how could he explain it, saying that this is normal, but An Yizhi's hopeless middle two disease has flare-up again?

Thanks to the fact that it's not junior high school now, otherwise there would be an extra fat man of more than 300 pounds who would laugh wildly......

The wild laughter did not last long, as Charlie heard the voice and rushed to inform a message.

Buric is dying.

This made An Yizhi's outbreak of secondary two diseases somewhat restrained, originally according to his character, an unfamiliar NPC died when he died, but according to the experience of previous temporary dungeons, if you can save the life of an innocent NPC, you can get an extra reward, this setting can be regarded as a hidden setting, only people like them who often schedule copies know.

So, An Yizhi, who was laughing wildly just now, had to run all the way back to the restaurant to see Burrick's appearance.

He did look like he was dying.

His whole body was convulsed, his lips were blue, his heart was beating violently, and he was still unconscious.

Anyway, what kind of poison is this, it is so fierce.

"He's sick?"

Anasta asked quietly.

"No, he's poisoned."

As he spoke, Ann fingered out the needle he had found on Burlick's calf, the needle had been pulled out by him, and the thing was too dangerous to put in his pocket, and he would be miserable if it pierced him.

Anasta squeezed out some of the liquid from the syringe, picked up a tissue and rubbed it, then lit it, and the flame lit up bright green and disappeared.

"It's snake venom, neurotoxin."

Can this be seen?

In other words, isn't snake venom the only way to accurately test what kind of toxin it is by going to the laboratory?

After thinking about it, there are already too many unscientific things in this copy, and the ghost knows what else there is, and a mere local method of testing snake venom means that it is acceptable.

Snake venom...... Really troublesome.

Serum is required to detoxify snake venom, and the serum of each venomous snake is different and cannot be mixed.

Now they don't even know what kind of snake venom is in the needle, and I'm afraid that even if the doctor comes, they will be helpless.

An Yizhi shrugged, it seems that this NPC's life can't be saved, if you can save it, forget it, you can't force it, it's just an extra reward anyway.

But Anasta had a solution, and she said to Charlie:

"There's a first aid kit under the closet in my room, bring me a blue potion in it."

"Yes, miss."

An Yizhi hurriedly asked Tu Hongyu to follow, he was worried that Charlie would be attacked, Tu Hongyu had a gun in his hand, and he could protect him somewhat.

It wasn't long before Charlie returned with a blue potion that was the size of a vial and the blue of the sky was as dramatic.

An Yizhi took it and opened the item attributes.

【Powerful Antidote】

Attribute: Consumable

Effect: Stronger than the antidote, it can remove most toxins that do not contain spell effects and some toxins that contain spell effects.

Description: A must-have for home travel, buy now and get a healing potion gift pack, on a first-come, first-served basis - BY: Goblin Potion Merchant.

I think it's a bit of a waste to save Beric with this thing......

As mentioned earlier, antidote is different from red and blue bottles, and it is rarely sold in shops in the Overworld, and most players who want this thing must collect materials by themselves and go to the alchemist to customize it, plus the toxin is a very difficult attack method to deal with, so many players will prepare a bottle or two for backup.

The value of this powerful antidote will not be worse than that of excellent-level equipment, and An Yi also opened the first aid kit to check when they searched at the beginning, but there was no introduction to the items, otherwise they would not let go of this kind of loot anyway.

A potion comparable to an excellent item can be exchanged for a settlement reward to increase ...... I always feel that it is not worth it, but consumables cannot be traded, and even if An Yizhi takes it, he can only use it himself, and there is no way to exchange it for equipment, so it is better to use it to save people.

"This potion was obtained by Mr. Edward from a friend of his who understands and is said to cure all poisons."

With that, Anasta filled the potion with a metal syringe and injected Buric with a shot.

Even the system has certified that this thing is a powerful antidote, and the effect is almost immediate, as soon as the potion is in, Beric immediately stopped his convulsions, and his heartbeat and breathing returned to stability, but he was still in a coma, after all, this is just an antidote, not some biological pill, and he did not recover his vitality so quickly.

But where did this potion come from......

Sure enough, this is another unscientific copy in the cloak of science, only this time there are a lot fewer supernatural elements in the copy.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

With his life in danger for the time being, Ann asks Charlie and Mary to take care of him, and tells him not to let Lydia and Able approach.

Charlie also seemed to sense something, not to mention anything else, they were so lively, and the fact that the two of them never showed up is enough to explain the problem.

Subsequently, An Yizhi and Tu Hongyu plus Anasta who had to follow him came to the entertainment room, where it was Edward. The mystery of Pickles.

"This is the entertainment room, don't sell it, hurry up and tell me what the mystery is?"

"Don't worry, let me show off."

“……”

Ann took out his pipe with one finger, and took a few steps pretendedly, he took out the note with the puzzle written on it and said:

"There are 16 sets of simple multiplication equations on it, and at first I thought that I could see some patterns by calculating these numbers, but this is purely to confuse our means, and the result of the equation does not matter, or rather, it is not an equation at all."

"Not an equation?"

After being reminded, Tu Hongyu looked at the piece of paper again, and suddenly said:

"There is no equal sign!"

"Yes, there is no equal sign at all, the meaning it expresses has nothing to do with the result, and the clue is listed literally in the real sense."

He shook the piece of paper:

"Looking at these alone, there are only two rules and hints of 'equations', first, a total of 16 groups, and second, the maximum upper limit of numbers is only 8, and there are no 9 and 0."

"What does that mean?"

Tu Hongyu asked suspiciously, these laws can't see anything.

"Good question, Watson."

“……”

Anasta pulled Tu Hongyu's sleeve:

"Who is Watson?"

It seems that there is no Sherlock Holmes detective book in this world, otherwise this girl must have read it with her character who likes to read.

"Ignore him, he's sick again."

Ignoring the whispers of the two over there, An Yizhi continued:

"The reason is simple, the answer to the puzzle leads to the location of the treasure, and Mr. Edward will certainly not come up with a puzzle that requires a wider range of knowledge."

In fact, Mr. Edward is just a synonym for the system, and because Anasta is there, he can't say it directly.

"In other words, the place to which the puzzle refers must be in this house, so what is the match between the 16 groups and the absence of the two prompts of 8 and 0?"

"You'd better just say the result......"

An Yizhi smiled awe-inspiringly:

"Chess!"

"Chess?"

Tu Hongyu was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized.

"Each chess player has 16 pieces, and the board is 8X8 with a total of 64 black and white squares, which is the only thing that fits these two prompts"

"That's the equation...... Could it be the landing point of the chess pieces? ”

"Exactly"

An Yizhi walked over to the square table with chess and picked up a chess piece:

"The area of the chessboard is 8X8, a total of 64 grids, that is, the length and width are 8, taking the original 3X4 as an example, it can be regarded as a coordinate, which actually means that the length is 3 and the width is 4, and the place where the two intersect is where the chess pieces fall!"

As he spoke, An pointed and placed the chess pieces in the position where they should be placed according to the instructions on the note.

"But the chess pieces are black and white, how do you know which one to use? Besides, according to the different starting directions, the landing point is also different."

"The chessboard of chess is originally black and white, which means that if the landing point is black, black chess is used, and so on, as for the direction, ......"

He picked up the last king:

"The two chairs of the chess player next to the table are fixed to the ground, so there are only two directions on the board, which is not a hint at all, but it is not necessary, anyway, there are only two kinds of try."

Anyway, there are only two in total, and you won't get pregnant if you try.

"Let me see, then, Edward. Mr. Pickles, what else are you hiding! ”

He dropped the last black king, and at that moment, the three of them saw the chessboard squeak and make a cogwheel move, and then the black-and-white checkerboard cracked through it, revealing a half-finger-deep space with a small red plastic ball inside.

"How does this thing look like a Poké Ball?"

"If you complain, you'll lose......"

An Yizhi took it out of the space on the board, and when the plastic ball was removed, it returned to its original shape, and even the pieces were automatically lined up.

Not only does it look like a plastic ball, but it also feels like it.

Now that there is plastic in this day and age?

There really is, plastic was invented in the 50s of the 19th century, and now it is the 30s of the 20th century, not only but also developing very rapidly.

He looked around and noticed a gap in the middle of the plastic ball, which felt like it could be unscrewed.

"You can unscrew it, and there's a note in there, and there's another puzzle on it."

Anasta said, pulling out an identical plastic ball from the pocket of her skirt and tossing it to Ann.

"The puzzles should all be the same, if you open it and look at it, you'll know."

After taking the plastic ball, Ann was stunned for a moment, and then said:

"This plastic ball...... Did you take it out of your study? ”

Anasta nodded.

"Then why didn't you take the book of this organ?"

"Because it's not a book, it's not worth reading."

“……”

This girl really loves books.
