Chapter 163 The Secret of the Stone Ring

On the sinking square, the apprentices whose atmosphere had become lax, seeing the “puzzle” reappear, couldn’t help but spontaneously throw their minds into the adrenaline hormone eruption.

If you just watch a movie, then everyone is just a passerby.

But the “question answering mode” in the path of the mage gave everyone a sense of participation, and everyone enthusiastically took the place of Lynch to participate in the answer.

On the contrary, Master Luo Tianqing relied on rituals to break the game in a different way, which made many apprentices see in the mist.

“This topic is very simple.” Chen Shikun said after thinking about the hidden traps.

“Yes, from the entire sample space, there must be three possibilities for a male (male, male), (female, male), (male, female), so the answer is 13.” Guo Sifei quickly thought about it.

This question is easily understood by ordinary people as 12, but for them, apprentices of the mage, it is completely a sub-question.

“But are the elves mentioned here, or is this a question of elven physiology?” the apprentice Shanbo questioned.

Reminiscent of the difficulty of the topic just seen, even the Pythagorean theorem requires people to provide five hundred proofs.

Such a simple answer at the scene, on the contrary, people can’t believe it.

Enya and Wang Ruoling also passed through the crowd silently and walked into this area. Everyone had greeted each other because they had seen each other because of Lin Qi.

Upon hearing this, Enya the girl explained, “Even the elves have similar body structures to humans, so there will be no deviation in the gender ratio of this question.”

She laughed in a low voice, “Even elves and humans can break the reproductive isolation and give birth to half elves. As far as I know, there are half elves in some mage families.”

Chen Shikun said, “Isn’t this that I will have the opportunity to marry an elf wife and go home in the future?”

Although the apprentices at the scene had not seen real elves, many men were itchy when they saw the dignified and elegant appearance and graceful body of the “elves” mentioned in the textbook.

Enya gave these male apprentices a glance on the spot.

“Elves think that humans are vulgar, dwarves have no sense of humor, dwarves are ordinary, and half-orcs are untrustworthy. Only half-elves still have mercy.”

“However, the arrogant elves will still show pleasure and kindness to people who are not what they want. After all, except for them, most people are unqualified in their eyes.”

Speaking of Enya, she put her arms around Wang Ruoling’s shoulders, “The temperament of Ruoling in my house can still be caught by the magic eyes of the elves. As for you, it must be out of play.”

Chen Shikun and other apprentices were so embarrassed that they couldn’t speak at once, and it took a long time to defend themselves, “Isn’t it possible to become a mage?”

“Becoming a wizard is naturally crushing for ordinary people. But for the elves, this is not enough. After all, their ancestors are also one of the sources of magic. The proportion of wizards in the elven tribe is high, which can be called the first among the population. ”

Liu Kai, who had heard his uncle’s words and deeds a long time ago, smiled and said, “What’s even more troublesome is that the elves are really going to get married for hundreds of years. You are old and young, and the other person is only young and beautiful and has just grown up.”


It’s just that his words, on the contrary, caused everyone’s originally extinguished thoughts to reappear.

“Hey, there has been a change!” Mo Yifei hurriedly reminded, interrupting everyone’s thoughts.

On the screen, Lynch was on the first stone pillar, and after silently inputting the answer “13” that everyone had agreed upon, he walked to the next stone pillar according to the hint of “magic aura”.

He guessed in his mind that the six stone pillars propped up the giant stone ring, which probably represented the mysterious power that opened the ring.

Six questions.

Thinking of this, Lynch blushed.

Once, when he played marbles in elementary school, he found that six small marbles could perfectly wrap the center small marbles without leaving any gaps. Later, he tried chess pieces, go pieces, etc. as long as they were round. Anything with a shaped cross-section can do this mysterious point.

Lin Qi was full of joy at the time, and mistakenly thought that he had invented the “Lin’s Seven Circle Theorem.”

It wasn’t until the fourth grade of elementary school that he came into contact with Orsay and learned more about geometry, that he suddenly realized that the center circle and the centers of the other two circles must be an equilateral triangle with an angle of 60 degrees, so the six circles in the outer circle must fit together. 360 degrees.

Afterwards, such as cutting the circle into small sectors and re-joining it into a rectangle, and being complacent, I actually derive the formula for the area of ​​the circle, which is countless.

So Lynch knew since he was a child that all the “inventions and creations” that he thought were so powerful that he had actually practiced first.

With a sigh, Lynch silently read a secret word on the stone pillar again based on the elven phonetic mark in the dragon’s heritage.

The hollow text immediately appeared bright, as if poured into molten gold, and became lifelike, and a new line of text also appeared below.

“An elven family has two children, the older one is a boy.”

“What is the probability that the two children are boys?”

Lynch wrote down the answer of 12 without hesitation, this time it was really one-half.

Because the entire sample space is extremely clear, there are only two types: (male, female) and (male, male).

Regarding his answer, the apprentice in the square and the mage in the hall watched silently and did not say anything. Compared with the two levels just now, many people felt that the topic of this level was slightly inferior.

Lynch glanced into the distance, and after confirming that Master Luo Tianqing was not approaching, he silently began to conquer the third stone pillar——

“A family of elves has two children, and at least one of them is a boy born in odd months.”



“What is the probability that the two children are boys?”

This question also came into everyone’s mind.

Many apprentices brightened their eyes on the spot, and some even cheered up, unwilling to show weakness and began to calculate deep in their hearts.

This question is definitely no longer a simple 12 or 13.

“Could these six questions follow this line of thought, right?” Gu Yan, an apprentice in the other corner, assessed, and several of their talented apprentices quietly formed a circle.

“This problem is the overlap of the two sample spaces between the gender of’male and female’ and the month of’odd-even’.” Apprentice Yulian also described it inwardly.

“How much is it?” Chen Shikun on the other side struggled for a while, but found that his thoughts were messed up.

“Don’t forget it, Brother Lin has already written it out.” Liu Kai said.

The whole process lasted only two or three seconds, with a slight hesitation pause.

All the apprentices raised their heads in unison–

37.

A bright red number was painted on it, and at the same time Lynch had raised his leg and walked towards another stone pillar.

“How could this be the answer?” Mo Yifei was still entangled between 12 and 13, and he didn’t expect to become this again.

“After the four gender ratios are matched with odd and even months, there are a total of 16 possibilities. There are 7 kinds of odd months for boys, and only 3 of them are two boys, so it is 37.” Wang Ruoling silently said this somewhat counterintuitive answer .

Just now, she was only a little slower than Lynch to answer. At this moment, most of the top apprentices in the field were at this speed.

Many apprentices in the Central District cocked their mouths and uttered a mocking tone.

“This is the difficulty of the third level? Reversed, right? So let any apprentice in the central district go up, it’s easy and stress-free.”

“That’s right, it’s probably reversed. The divine envoy just now was too cautious. He only needs to open it first and he can crack it.”

Before they could say a few words, Lynch opened the fourth stone pillar——

“A family of elves has two children, and at least one of them is a boy who was born on Friday.”

“What is the probability that the two children are boys?

With the familiar experience, many apprentices quickly counted on the spot, especially the apprentices in the Central District made up their minds to read out the answers before Lynch could write.

This is where the real fun of watching quiz games lies, and by the way, it harvests the admiring eyes of a Bourbon.

“Ah!” Chen Shikun let out an exclamation, and similar actions occurred one after another throughout the venue.

“What is the name of the ghost?” Liu Kai was almost startled and complained.

“No, it was Brother Lin who wrote the answer.”

Just after the apprentices glanced at the problem and calculated it first, Chen Shikun reacted a little slower and read the next sentence in its entirety.

But he also discovered that Lynch had already written the answer.

1327.

Wang Ruoling was also slightly sluggish at this moment.

“A total of 196 possibilities are in line with the 27 boys on Tuesday, and there are 13 more in line with the two boys. It’s not difficult to calculate, but it’s too fast to count.”

“Have you forgotten? Once when Brother Lin was not on the cruise, he counted the types of phone unlock codes. The whole calculation is not difficult. The difficulty is to filter out the repeated options. Didn’t Brother Lin stand out at the time? “Chen Shikun shouted.

At this time, Lynch walked towards the fifth pillar, but this time he did not first inspire the elves ciphertext, instead he wrote a paragraph on the stone pillar first—

“If at least one male meets a certain condition (n cases), the probability of two males is (2n-1) (4n-1).”

Obviously, just Friday represents seven possibilities in a week, so n=7, which is calculated as 1327.

The apprentices who were still guessing how Lynch could count so fast made a big blush.

Where the other party is counting, it is simply a mindless formula to calculate.

Otherwise, if you were born on January 1st, among the 532,900 possibilities, there are 1459 males born on January 1st, and 729 are satisfied, which can be counted to the year of the monkey.

In the challenge hall, the mages were silently watching the formula left by Lynch and the image just painted under the formula, and they were silent for a long time.

“It turned out to be so, this might be hopeless for that Master Luo Tianqing.”

The Dean’s Assistant Leo said to Zheng Yingluo, “Lin Qi seems to have realized this in the odd and even months of the third pillar.”

Zheng Yingluo nodded in agreement.

Perhaps the apprentices outside are still confused, but the mages in the field, even if they are not prophecy mages, are still outstanding, they have already understood the message this stone pillar is going to tell them.

The probability just now, the first one is 13 for boy, 37 for boy with odd months, and 1327 for boy on Friday. As the conditions become clearer, the probability becomes greater.

Zheng Yingluo couldn’t help laughing and said, “Given information, the probability will show an ascending trend.”

“And the more complex the conditions are given, the greater the overall probability is, the greater the overall probability. If the nearby conditions are that at least one boy likes to eat ice cream, believes in specific gods, and his favorite sport is running, it basically approaches. Up to 12.”

“Because this refers to a certain boy more and more clearly.”

“Then what is this stone ring for us to emphasize this point?”

Zheng Yingluo thought silently.

And in front of Lynch in the projection, on the flat ground directly below the giant stone ring, the soil cracked, and then a one-meter-square stone pier platform slowly rose.
