God's Imitator-Chapter 460: Secret Code

At this moment, He Xiaojun had already confirmed that '↑The Moon' was player number 7 from Community 14, Huang Ming.

Looking back, his choice of the '↑The Moon' mask was actually also to create a certain association with his own name, which was also one of the reasons He Xiaojun became suspicious.

However, a more important reason was that He Xiaojun, considering the probability of matched players, took a risk and made an attempt.

Up to now, 8 games had passed, and He Xiaojun still hadn't encountered any players from Community 14.

But judging from the matching mechanism, this game shouldn't have a 'same community avoidance' principle.

Therefore, He Xiaojun judged that probability-wise, he should soon encounter a player from Community 14.

And because of the game's progression, he also had to make some risky attempts.

Otherwise, if he encountered a player from Community 14 but didn't confirm their identity, the subsequent free matching phase might miss them or use an extra game to verify, which would be an even bigger loss.

So He Xiaojun directly guessed 14. For players from other communities, this number wouldn't necessarily be directly associated with a community number, but if they were both players from Community 14, they would be more sensitive to it.

Afterward, the two exchanged the secret code established within the community.

"Very simple. No matter what situation I encounter, I'll say it's very simple." This was the reply agreed upon internally in Community 14.

Because the question "What do you think of the difficulty of this game?" wouldn't seem too abrupt when asked in any game. If asked to players from other communities, the other party would also find it difficult to realize this was actually a code phrase, and naturally wouldn't be able to use this point in reverse to set a trap for players from Community 14.

After exchanging the secret code, both breathed a sigh of relief.

They had finally found someone familiar from the same community.

Community 14 didn't have an absolutely dominant core. Huang Ming was among the players with decent performance, but was only slightly better than average.

He Xiaojun looked at the time. "We must hurry and discuss subsequent strategies.

"To avoid suffering the punishment of instant death for everyone, at least one player must go to one of the Core Communities.

"That is to say, we need to concentrate Wealth Vouchers on one person as much as possible. Only this way can we ensure the safety of others.

"But the problem now is, who goes?"

This question plunged both of them into silence. Very obviously, although Community 14 wasn't strong, after living together in this community for so long, most people didn't really want to leave.

Although there would be some players who despised their community members for being too weak, these people had basically already found ways to leave and wouldn't wait until now.

Currently, although Community 14 wasn't at full capacity with only 9 players, most people should still hope to stay.

Going to a Core Community sounded good and would allow encountering stronger companions, but there were too many unknowns and variables, making people instinctively retreat.

The weaker the players, the more so.

Moreover, to go to a Core Community, it would be best to reach an agreement with players in the corresponding Core Community who could make decisions. Otherwise, forcing one's way in based on wealth value, even if they squeezed in, would most likely kick out certain players originally from the Core Community.

In that case, they would probably become enemies with all players from the Core Community as soon as they entered.

Huang Ming seemed to make some kind of determination. "If there's really no other way, I'll go.

"Time is limited. It's a bit too late to try to find others.

"Previously, the Reversed '↓The Tower' matched with me and did offer me a proposal.

"Simply put, our community would all concentrate wealth value on one player, then enter their community..."

Huang Ming briefly introduced his experience.

He Xiaojun realized that '↓The Tower' and '↑The Lovers' were most likely from the same community, because the strategies they executed were almost identical.

These two players belonged to different camps and had obviously already matched in the game previously. After discussing strategies, they split up to persuade players from Peripheral Communities.

He Xiaojun shook his head. "No, this strategy absolutely won't work. Because once the other party goes back on their word, we also have no way to constrain them.

"Moreover, since the other party is trying to create a prisoner's dilemma among Peripheral Communities, I think the probability is very high that they're not sincerely cooperating.

"The possibility of them going back on their word in the end is very, very high."

He Xiaojun quickly recounted to Huang Ming his rejection of '↑The Lovers' and his thoughts about this matter.

Huang Ming was stunned for a moment and asked back, "Then what should we do?"

He Xiaojun said, "Internally within our community, we first concentrate Wealth Vouchers on one player as much as possible.

"However, we can't rashly transfer these Wealth Vouchers to a Core Community.

"It's not only Core Communities that can screen us. We can also screen Core Communities in reverse.

"We must have one player enter a Core Community to avoid suffering the punishment of instant death for everyone. But don't Core Communities also need to avoid bottoming out?

"We can also proactively contact other Core Communities and try to cooperate with them.

"If there are relatively benevolent Core Communities, we can appropriately transfer some Wealth Vouchers. Entering such a community would also be more acceptable.

"If there really are no benevolent Core Communities, we'll simply accumulate all the Wealth Vouchers in our hands.

"Among the four Core Communities, there will always be one Core Community with the lowest wealth value that will suffer instant death punishment. At that time, the person who has concentrated the Wealth Vouchers can directly go to this Core Community's Exit Area.

"In this game, there will be at least 6 players leaving through this area and going to this Core Community.

"These six players will form a new group within this community. At that time, there will actually be some room for negotiation.

"This is much better than blindly following the orders of players like '↑The Lovers' and '↓The Tower.'"

Huang Ming was stunned for a moment. Very obviously, He Xiaojun at this moment was very different from his daily state in the community.

In Community 14, He Xiaojun had never been a player with particularly strong presence. He wasn't very enthusiastic about participating in many topics either. Although he occasionally had commendable performances in previous games and generally ensured his own safety, this performance wasn't particularly stable.

It was difficult to truly view him as strong.

But at this moment, He Xiaojun displayed a very proactive attitude. Whether in analyzing the situation or proposing subsequent countermeasures, it all gave people a reliable feeling.

Huang Ming lowered his head and considered for a moment. "Mm, what you say makes sense.

"Then, in the following games, I'll continue doing my best to find others, then in the subsequent free matching phase, have them transfer all their Wealth Vouchers to you. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

"However... I want to ask one more question at the end.

"We can trust you unconditionally, right?"
