[Hunter] How to kill a zombie

Too strong, many tricks of human beings can't arouse his interest.Neferpitus and Mentus Juppie have only limited fun to offer.So sometimes he would talk to Zoe (although Puff was very reluctant).

Zoe admitted that it was inevitable to feel bored in such a large and empty palace.The same is true of herself, so she does not reject Wang's occasional call.

Recently, Wang was looking through the collection of books in the commander-in-chief's mansion. He reads very fast.After reading most of the books, he just put them aside in disgust.Zooey found out about this one day, so she took a few recommended books from the bookshelf and placed them where he usually reads.Also after that, Wang always called her to go.Or recommend some new books, or discuss what you have read.At times like this, Zoe always had a very weird feeling, as if she was guiding a student to understand the world.

A student with as much thirst for knowledge as he has an appetite.

Wang's growth is indeed very fast. He browsed the local natural history in a short time, and recently read content related to history.But none of these can grab his attention. Even if he is initially interested, he often drops it because he is bored.But... He didn't throw away the books on biology and philosophy that Zoe brought him.

He is learning to find his own roots, which is what every life has to do at the beginning.

Zooey didn't know what he would grow into, in fact... the thought made her feel eager to try.

"Don't even think about it." Suddenly, Pufu's voice interrupted Zoe's reverie, "I won't let you get close to the king again."

"Really?" Zooey looked at Pufu, his face always had a melancholy expression, his face became more and more haggard from the hard work of the day, and Zooey couldn't help feeling pity. "If the government affairs side needs help, I can actually share some of it for you," she suggested.

"Don't even think about it," Puff said mercilessly.

She wasn't surprised that he read her own mind. In fact, if she got used to it, Pufu's ability to easily perceive other people's thoughts made her feel very labor-saving. Many things can be told to the other party without saying a word, which is very convenient.

"...Please don't think so." Ouyapov frowned in disgust.

He used honorifics habitually, even though he might have scolded her hundreds of times in his heart.I don't know why such a trait is written in the gene. Is there a pair of chromosomes in the gene of a certain creature called "politeness"?Then this pair of chromosomes must not exist in the human body.

"I don't allow you to continue to pollute the king's thinking."

"Pollution of the king's thinking? Can I do such a remarkable thing? That's your king, Pufu." Zoe rolled his eyes, "Have a little confidence in your king."

"you--!"

"Wang seems to be interested in games recently. Ah, I'm talking about chess and card games, especially chess... because we talked about the rules that day, why do people want to add various things to their behavior? The restriction is very curious. Said that I want to find some chess players to practice with.”

"I'll take care of these little things," said Puff. "You're not allowed to get near the king any more."

Zooey shrugged. These things are beyond her control. If Wang wants to see her, no one can stop him.I believe that Pufu should know this better than her, but he is just anxious, and this kind of anxiety has nowhere to vent, it can only vent on her.

But... She looked at that handsome face.

Now all this is still maintained at a delicate balance point, once this balance point is broken...

This angelic face will immediately turn into a demon.

She believed that if it was to protect the ant king, Owlyapf could do anything.

Choice

On closer inspection, most desires have a rooted physiological cause.Chimeric ants are a sex-feeding species, so gender is not important to them, and there is not much demand for the opposite sex.Their biological structure determines that their objects of interest will focus on other races.There are two factors that need to be judged: 1. Can the advantages of this race allow chimeric ants to occupy a high position in the survival of the fittest? 2. Where is the disadvantage of this race?Will it have a fatal blow to chimeric ants?

Which species trait is most likely to help them survive?

The queen's answer is simple: humans.

Humans certainly have their advantages.Perhaps there are very few races in the world that can have such a great impact on the world's environment in a short period of time like humans.But humans...

Zooey looked at the king who was playing chess.

The chess player opposite him claims to be the champion of the National Chess Tournament. At this time, facing the Ant King who is obviously not human, he is already sweating profusely. He just accidentally made a wrong move, and he is running all the way thinking about the direction of defeat. .

The Ant King was apparently thinking about the chess moves, but his wagging tail and the terrifying spikes on it clearly took most of the players' attention.This chess player just witnessed that thing piercing the heart of the previous chess player not long ago, so it is impossible for him not to care.Apparently the Ant King is also familiar with this point, as can be seen from the crazy look in his eyes.

Zooey sighed.

An annoyed look appeared in the Ant King's eyes.

He performed the action in his hand, and the chess player on the opposite side held his breath.

"Do you have any opinion?"

"You scare people like this, how can he perform at a normal level? He sweats enough to wash clothes." Zooey said helplessly.

"Humph……"

"King!" put in Puff, "please don't listen to this—this stuff is bullshit, you just have to keep going and you can win!"

"I have a name, Pufu." Zoe teased, "Not 'that thing'."

"you--!"

"Enough." Wang said impatiently, "Puff, let her continue—" Those crazy eyes looked at Zooey, "Are you trying to say this is unfair?"

Zooey was indifferent: "Of course. How can you call it fair if you scare people like this?"

"I'm just sitting here and playing chess," Wang said. "Are you going to say that this violates your so-called 'rules'?"

"No," Zoe said, "Using strength to intimidate the opponent is certainly not a foul. In fact, chess games where each other's lives are bet on each other are not uncommon in history. Chess games where both sides are under pressure are indeed different. You are just unilaterally intimidating. It is not a chess competition."

"You mean, let me bet my life too?" Wang asked blankly.

"King—please don't—"

However, a look from Wang made Pufu shut up.

king……

The killing intent in Pufu's eyes grew stronger.

"It doesn't matter, just bet on it." Wang said, "One arm. Is it okay?"

One arm—but in the current situation, it is obvious that the Ant King will win.

The chess player looked at Zooey angrily.

Zooey sighed again.

Wang obviously became more impatient: "What? Not enough?"

His patience was running out, and Zooey could tell that she looked at the chess player and the board blankly, and said, "No, it's nothing. That's all."

The result was of course the Ant King's victory. The chess player lost an arm. He hugged his wound and wept bitterly, staring again at Zoe, who looked the most like a human in the audience.If she hadn't been so talkative...if she hadn't been...he wouldn't have lost this arm!

"By the way," Zoe said suddenly, "Don't you all disdain to eat humans who are not rare species? Just give me this arm, don't waste it."

What……?Give it to her?What does it mean?The chess player's eyes were full of doubts.

"Hmph, take it if you want." The Ant King said boringly.

"Thanks," Zoe said.

"I did as you said and won the round. Do you have anything else to say?"

"Obviously you have defeated the chess champion, and you have reached the pinnacle in this respect. You are worthy of being a king when you defeat an invincible player in the world." She clapped dryly as she spoke.

The Ant King didn't miss the hint of irony in her words.

"What do you want to say?"

"I just want to say that you have done a good job in disrupting their psychological defense. No matter what kind of chess it is, it is difficult for anyone to beat you."

"Everyone has their own 'breath,'" Wang said. "Just disrupt their 'breath,' and you can win."

"That's what you said." Zoe said flatly.

Then she received Wang's eyes that were so impatient that she didn't even care if cutting her into pieces would infect herself into a zombie.

"Okay. Let me give you a simple example." Zoe finally said, "From the perspective of pure game rules, the several kinds of chess you have played before, including chess and chess, are all valid. Optimal solution. That is, if you are playing chess with an AI—ah, an intelligent program, then it is basically impossible to win. So yes, you are right, humans play chess with humans, In other words, the game of chess is to disturb the breathing of the opponent and make him make mistakes. There is no problem at all. It's just that when the power is too large, it will naturally become no suspense, and if it continues like this, it will only make you feel bored. "

"A game with an optimal solution can only show that there is a problem with the design of the rules." Pufu said, "Humans can only make such clumsy products with their small heads."

Zoe shrugged.

"The rules are seldom foolproof. How about bugs in computer programs? But most board games have good enough rules if you just play them."
