God's imitator

Chapter 229 Hindsight
Luo Wei, the "Hummingbird," was also completely panicked because she only had one "Sheep" ticket, which could only get her a little over 10,000 chips.

Although she had won some chips in the first phase of the game, she had already used them, along with the chips she had redeemed using her original visa time, to pay off her debts.

She is now penniless.

"Rabbit" Han Mengying gave her 5 of her own contract coupons. If the original plan was followed and Han Mengying got the final prize pool, then Luo Wei would get more than 5 visa time.

This would be enough for her to pay off her community loans and have about $3 left for her visa.

But now, Han Mengying's five contract vouchers have suddenly shrunk to about 7000 visa time.

This also means that Luo Wei's earnings from the contract voucher amount to less than 2 minutes of visa time.

Previously, Han Mengying's loan to Luo Wei from the 4th Community Fund was for 2 minutes of visa time. Although no interest was set, a repayment period of 2 weeks was specified.

That's roughly the time it takes for the next game to start after this one ends.

Therefore, this selection game is Luo Wei's last chance to earn time for her visa application.

Once forced to repay the loan, Luo Wei's visa validity period will be completely reset to zero.

Thinking of this, Luo Wei panicked.

"After returning to the community, let's pass a bill to extend the repayment period for interest-free loans?"

"One week, just one week is enough. No matter what the next game is, I'll get in!"

However, Han Mengying, nicknamed "Rabbit," glanced at her and silently shook her head.

"sorry.

“I admire you and have given you many opportunities.”

"But rules are rules, and everyone must abide by them."

"Our community is not a community that can tolerate the weak indefinitely."

"I've already made an exception for you once; I can't make an exception a second time."

Luo Wei, the hummingbird, was instantly drained of all her strength and slumped against the wall.

Han Mengying ignored Luo Wei.

But amidst her anger, she also realized that she actually had another way to settle scores with the "sheep" later.

Because she had already verbally agreed to bring the 'sheep' back to the 4th community, once it returned to the community, the 'sheep' would still be at her mercy.

However, she did not hear any notification from 'Sheep' to return to Community 4 with her until the end of the game.

Clearly, the sheep has found another way out.

What puzzled Han Mengying was that "Sheep" had already verbally agreed to enter her community, a fact that had been confirmed at the game level.

The "sheep" can back out, but only if she finds another community to go through the process again and be accepted back.

Han Mengying, nicknamed "Rabbit," had been observing "Sheep" throughout the game. She confirmed that "Sheep" had not made any public contact with players from the original community.

Aside from a few hours spent lobbying 'Owl' and 'Deer', 'Sheep' spends most of his time with the players in Community 4.

But now that things have come to this, the sheep either returned to its original community or joined the community of the owl or the deer.

……

Earlier, when the broadcast of the vote-copycat incident came on.

Zheng Jie ("Woodpecker") and Qin Yao ("Peacock") asked in shock, "What? Is 'Sheep' a copycat?!"

They were both a little slow to realize it.

Shortly after the third round of the "Guess the Number" game began, "Sheep" approached "Owl" Lin Sizhi to discuss a new plan. The two then went to a corner and discussed it for a long time before reaching an agreement.

Lin Sizhi went directly to Zheng Jie and Qin Yao and brought "Sheep" into the 17th community.

Zheng Jie and Qin Yao were somewhat surprised at the time. They originally thought that Lin Sizhi might find a female player to join from among the existing Fool players who had reached cooperation agreements.

I never expected them to poach people from the Wise Men team.

But since it was Lin Sizhi's decision, Zheng Jie and Qin Yao naturally wouldn't ask any more questions, much less object.

They cooperated perfectly in successfully recruiting the people.

Before this, Zheng Jie and Qin Yao had no idea why Lin Sizhi poached people, nor did they know that "Sheep" was the copycat who designed this game.

It's even more unclear whether Lin Sizhi deliberately dug up a copycat or accidentally did so.

"How did you discover that 'Sheep' was a copycat?" Zheng Jie asked, full of shock.

He knew, of course, that he would talk about it during the debriefing, but he couldn't wait.

Lin Sizhi, the "Owl," took out two slips of paper from her pocket.

These are the spending records for "Rabbit" and "Sheep," respectively.

Zheng Jie took the "Woodpecker" with a puzzled look, examined it for a long time, but couldn't figure it out.

"I only noticed that 'Rabbit' was consuming oxygen very quickly, and I checked your consumption records a long time ago. 'Sheep' wasn't consuming oxygen quickly, and I didn't check its consumption records either."

"But what does that prove?"

"Because 'Sheep' didn't think in the first stage and even obtained the status of a wise person, does that mean she's a copycat? That reason is probably not very convincing."
“There are also other players who decided to use a completely random strategy from the beginning in an oxygen-rich environment, and then relied on luck to get the ‘wise man’ status. These people should not have high oxygen consumption.”

Lin Sizhi, the "Owl," shook her head: "Whether oxygen is consumed 'fast' or 'slow' is a very vague concept."

"The most important thing to make an accurate judgment is 'quantification'."

"Both are 'slow,' but how slow is normal? How slow is abnormal?"

"Only by having quantifiable standards can we truly determine the answer to this question."

"Throughout the first phase of the game, I consistently engaged in minimal thinking."

"All the strategies were developed in an oxygen-rich environment before the game officially started."

"Once I enter the game, no matter what kind of opponent I encounter, I will execute the established strategy and even force myself to stop thinking."

"So I didn't win much, and in the end I got the 'Fool's Hand'."

"But the reason I don't think about it is not to save oxygen, but to determine where the limit of the lowest oxygen consumption is."

"Because once excessive thinking is done, the data is no longer accurate and can no longer be used as a standard for judgment."

"I probably took my first oxygen boost before the final round of the first stage."

"Of course, there was a little bit of reserve left when I replenished, but I wasn't sure if that reserve would be enough to last for 5 minutes of gameplay, so I replenished a little earlier."

"But in any case, I am certain that I was given oxygen in extreme conditions around 55 minutes ago."

"And the 'sheep' actually consumed less oxygen than me, only receiving its first oxygen supplement after 59 minutes."

"This shows that her level of thinking is even lower than mine when I 'deliberately stop thinking'."

"This is clearly abnormal."
