Chapter 8 - Kingdom

Referee 1: You can now check the new groups on the main wall and send an email to all of you.

Greg: I will just check my email ... Here it is

Adam: Anyway, is there anyone you know from these 100 players other than Bandeer?

Greg: Yes, in fact. That's the only reason I check it, because I know someone.

Adam: Who?

Greg: You really don't know him? Is there anyone you know other than me?

Adam: Seriously! Why do you care that much about what team he is in?

Greg: Okay, I am not in the same team with him.. Oh, I will play with Bandeer this time, guess then I will take revenge because he made you gain no points.

Adam: Really? You are this confident you will win against him?

Greg: Yeah, I don't think it will be really problematic, but it depends on the game we will play too.

Adam: Anyway... You did not answer my latest question! Why is that guy that important?

Greg: Well, because... If I get into the same team with him... I might be doomed...

Adam: Seriously? Is he that smart? Should I know him?

Greg: They say that he is an extraordinary genius who is really talented in math, puzzles, psychology and he is also a really fast thinker.

Adam: Really? But if you two keep winning, you are sure to be with one team for sure at least once, is there any chance of him losing even one round before that happens?

Greg: I really can't see it happening

THE NEXT DAY

Voice announcer: Good morning everyone! It's 7 AM! Everyone gathers up until 8 AM in the main hall! The 2nd game will start today!

1 Hour later...

Referee 1: Well, everyone should know already which bus will take them to the place where you will play, so.

Adam: Good luck Greg. I'm sure you can beat that gambler!

Greg: I should be the one who should wish you good luck, There is absolutely no shot I would lose!

The bus has taken Greg's and also some other groups to their place where they will play.

Referee 15: I will be the referee of Group 15! The players numbered 9, 36, 52 and 89 please follow me. You will play in this basement. This basement has a staircase to get down, after you get down, you can go to the left or straight. On the left, after a 20 meter walk, there is a room. That room will play a special role in this game, but I will explain it later. To the straight, two rooms to the left and two rooms to the right, you will be living here for the next couple of days. Even further straight is a large room where the game rounds will be played and results shown.

Number 52: And which room will be whose?

Referee 15: The room's doors already have the numbers on it, the door that has the same numbers as you have then, that's your room. Any other questions?

.....

Referee 15: Then I will now begin with the explanation of the game! The name of this game is called "Record Of the Four Kingdom"! Every day, you will play 6 rounds, which will take a little over 6 hours a day in the game, because every round will take a little longer than an hour. In the big room straight, before the end of the round you are in at that moment, you will choose actions there! You have to destroy the other kingdoms to 0HP while keeping yours above 0HP. You all start with 50HP. There will be a north, east, south and west. You will be able to do 3 actions at max in one round. An action costs 1 HP to be made. Being at only 1 HP doesn't mean that you can't make an action, but you can't make more actions than the amount of HP you have. There are 2 types of attack with 3 directions to make them meaning there are 6 possible actions in total! The first type of action is "ATK", which stands for "attack", if you attack someone, they lose 3 HP, but there is another type of action! It's named "DEF" which stands for "defense" which prevents you from losing 3 HP if you are being attacked! But this action also costs 1 HP! You will make these actions every hour in that room to the straight. We will show you who remained with what amount of HP at the end of every round, but we will not show you who used and what kind of action! The 1st place will gain 2 points and the second will gain 1 point. Tied 2nd places can happen if there's for example 3 people remaining and two die at the same turn, they will both gain 1 point, same with the 1st place!

Referee 15: After every round, you have 1 minute, in this one minute you have to either enter your rooms or the one on the left! But only 2 are allowed to enter that room, they can talk to each other for the entire hour till the next round starts, the other 2 are not allowed to communicate after the 1 minute after a round.

Referee 15:

NORTH is Bandeer!

EAST is Joseph!

SOUTH is Greg!

WEST is Elma!

Referee 15: The game will start in 1 hour, so prepare your strategies until then!

Elma: Sorry. How are we gonna decide who is gonna be in that special room?

Referee 15: Simple! The first 2 who arrive there faster will be in that room!
