After hearing the rules, ’Gray Wolf’ He Xiaojun felt his mind go completely blank, with no clue at all.
"So that ans, in the second stage, player elimination is accomplished through ’Guess the Number’?
"But these rules are too vague. They don’t explain at all how specifically to guess!
"To accurately guess the standard answer from numbers 0-100, how is that even possible?
"I can only think of one strategy right now, which is to always guess ’50’. After all, this number isn’t too far from either 0 or 100, but if I can’t last until the end, lasting longer actually ans losing more.
"Because for each additional round of ’Guess the Number’, debt increases by 5000.
"I definitely can’t last until the end, so the wisest approach would be to repay all debt early and exit ’Guess the Number’.
"But I need at least 30,000 chips in hand to exit!
"I could choose to exchange 20,000 chips with my own visa ti and imdiately repay the debt, but wouldn’t that make this ga a pure loss of 20,000!"
Although it wasn’t yet clear exactly how to guess the numbers, the ’elimination chanism’ was very clear.
Simply put, the second stage ga would conduct 7 rounds of number guessing, during which players could also freely play cards.
If players chose to continuously participate in the ’Guess the Number’ ga, then starting from the second ’Guess the Number’, each round would additionally incur 5000 chips in debt.
Although becoming one of the final 5 candidates could forgive all debt, if eliminated midway, it would be troubleso.
In the worst case scenario, being eliminated in the last number guess would an bearing up to 60,000 chips in debt.
With insufficient chips and then being deducted double visa ti, death would be basically certain.
If he didn’t want to bear more debt, the best thod was to exit ’Guess the Number’ as early as possible, but the prerequisite was imdiately repaying his current debt.
He Xiaojun currently had 9000 chips. This ant he had to exchange 21,000 chips with his own visa ti.
This would definitely be more cost-effective than being forcibly deducted double in the end, but it also ant purely losing 20,000 minutes of visa ti for doing nothing, no different from cutting flesh.
He was in a dilemma.
After struggling, He Xiaojun finally made up his mind and exchanged 20,000 chips with his own visa ti.
He didn’t have much visa ti to begin with. After exchanging chips, his heart felt like it was bleeding.
These chips weren’t enough to repay all debt, but He Xiaojun didn’t need to be too anxious, because there was still ti.
As long as he repaid the debt before the second round of number guessing produced results, the debt wouldn’t continue to increase.
So players actually had 30 minutes to make a decision.
The second stage had just begun. He Xiaojun felt he should enter the ga hall to look at the specific situation and try to find players from his own community.
If he could latch onto soone strong, or find players willing to cooperate, or learn the trick to ’Guess the Number’ from other players, then he wouldn’t need to make a decision so hastily.
He could observe a bit more.
Of course, he might also co up empty-handed. In that case, he could only find a way to imdiately submit chips to repay debt, at least not letting losses further expand.
...
Also having just finished listening to the second stage rules, ’Rabbit’ Han ngying had absolutely no intention of actively repaying debt.
At this mont, she held a large amount of chips. The only thing she considered was how to earn more.
Especially that final prize pool for ’Guess the Number’ was really tempting.
According to the ga rules, all chips players used to repay debt would enter this prize pool.
This ant the final accumulated prize pool would most likely exceed a million. Winning it alone would be a huge profit.
Of course, Han ngying also knew winning this prize pool alone was almost impossible, which is why the ga rules included the ’Contract Voucher’ clause.
Moreover, the ’Guess the Number’ rules weren’t explicit. How exactly to guess was a problem.
"The number guessing gaplay sounds like multi-level logical gaming, but deliberately omits the specific rules of multi-level logical gaming, especially not stating the specific parater that must be multiplied. Why?
"Of course, from the elimination chanism, as long as I keep my chips high enough, I shouldn’t be eliminated either.
"So the first priority is still earning more chips.
"Also, is this God’s Imitator so arrogant? Although this ga has 40 participants, as long as it’s confird the God’s Imitator is among them, it will necessarily greatly reduce the difficulty of finding the God’s Imitator.
"If truly discovered, as long as voting among all players is initiated, exceeding 70% is absolutely not too difficult. Then he would face certain death.
"Trying to repeatedly earn chips through false accusations? Really valuing money over life..."
While Han ngying quickly thought about ga strategy, the wooden box with the countdown also automatically opened with a "pop".
Han ngying hurriedly picked it up to look and found it indeed gave 16 chips of 1000 according to 10% of remaining visa ti as promised.
After entering the second stage, Han ngying again exchanged the maximum limit of 20,000 chips, plus her previous chips. Her chip amount now reached as much as 85,000.
Of course, 40,000 of this was exchanged with her own visa ti and couldn’t be counted in net earnings.
Besides this, there was also a small note in the wooden box, which was the ’God’s Imitator’s advice to fool players’.
Han ngying took the note and looked. It only had 8 large characters and one line of small text.
’Abandon thinking, play cards randomly.’
’(This advice mainly applies to the first stage.)’
Han ngying was very speechless. "That’s it? Is such a simple strategy necessary to specially make a box to hide?
"And it even notes it only applies to the first stage, which ans if fool players don’t actively smash the box, they fundantally can’t use this advice.
"Well, for so clueless newbie players, this is indeed advice that’s sowhat useful.
"Random card play can at least eliminate the negative influence of ’psychological processing’. It’s a simple defensive strategy.
"No wonder I encountered quite a few random card players.
"Forget it, this was originally advice for ’Fool Players’. It’s normal I can’t use it. Getting extra chips is more important.
"It’s just that those fool players who didn’t have much visa ti to begin with, if they didn’t smash the box early to see this note but chose to wait, they’re probably vomiting blood in anger right now."
The second stage ga had officially begun. Han ngying pushed open the rest room door and left.
...
This ti, behind the door was no longer a simply furnished battle room, but had beco an extrely open space.
The ceiling here was several ters high, looking very spacious. What particularly caught attention was that in the center of the hall was a transparent glass cylinder directly connected to the hall ceiling, currently empty inside.
Just as many players were considering what it was for, there suddenly ca a "hua la la" sound from inside.
Many chips fell from above into this glass container.
A rough count showed approximately 30 chips.
Han ngying understood. This was the ’Guess the Number final prize pool’ ntioned in the ga rules.
All chips players repaid debt with would enter this prize pool, aning it would accumulate more and more.
What made Han ngying sowhat helpless was, which player was this, so cowardly?
When debt wouldn’t increase until 30 minutes later, why repay so early? Not even trying the first round of ’Guess the Number’?
Obviously, with enough participants, there would inevitably be those who were excessively stable and conservative.
This couldn’t necessarily be called a wrong strategy. It could only be said the ga didn’t have just one solution. Players each had their own survival thods.
