Chapter 300 Choosing a Room
Soon, the 15-minute preparation time was over.

However, many within the community are still discussing this, because players need to enter the room in order, while players who have not yet entered the room can still continue to communicate.

The preparation time was too short, and many communities' strategies were not yet fully implemented. We could only continue to race against time and seize the last bit of time.

A new broadcast appeared on the big screen.

[Players, please select your room in the order indicated by your number.]

After selecting a room, players must immediately enter the room and find their assigned cubicle to sit down. Players may not leave their cubicle before the game ends.

The game will officially begin once all rooms are full.

[Now, Player 1, please select a room.]

Wang Weidong from Community 15 held up the number 1 card and selected "13-person room" to enter.

This also means that he will automatically become the owner of this room.

On the sign next to the door, one of the human-shaped lights in the first row is lit, meaning that a player has entered the room, but the lights in the second row representing free players are not lit.

Since a player cannot be both the host and a free agent at the same time, they will automatically lose their free agent status. Therefore, Wang Weidong would certainly not be foolish enough to give himself the free agent status.

Cai Zhiyuan had already learned the situation beforehand; Wang Weidong and Yang Yuting were assigned to the same room.

Although the exact returns are unclear, they should be quite good.

Unlike Cai Zhiyuan, who chose to exchange later number cards with other players in the community, Wang Weidong chose to take on the role of host himself.

Both methods have their advantages and disadvantages.

The advantage of being a homeowner is that you can modify the rules and adapt to different situations at any time, depending on the room's condition.

The less intelligent players who act as hosts can only mechanically follow the rules agreed upon before entering the room, without modifying the room rules as needed, thus wasting the host's role.

The advantage of staying outside is that you can observe the movements of other communities and adjust your strategy based on the number of people entering each room.

Clearly, Wang Weidong considered the former more important, so he chose to be the homeowner himself, while leaving Xu Zhao outside as the second core member to ensure the smooth execution of his plan.

The information on the big screen was updated immediately.

[Player #2, please select a room.]

Following Cai Zhiyuan's instructions, Yang Yuting took the number tag and went to the door of the "8-person room," swiping the tag to enter.

The next player, number 3, was also from community 15, but he also chose to enter the '13-person room'.

According to the game rules, only one player in the same community can be the host.

Player #4 is a player from Community 13.

However, he did not enter the '4-person room' to become the host, but instead chose to enter the '13-person room'.

The player holding card number 5 was Qian Li, and she clearly showed a delighted expression when she saw this situation.

Clearly, her strategy succeeded.

Through negotiation, neither of the other two groups chose to enter the "4-person room," which allowed her to successfully obtain the room owner's rights for the "4-person room."

Gao Jialiang continued to wait anxiously, only after ensuring that three players from the first community entered the '4-person room' could it be considered safe.

Any changes may occur before this point.

……

Soon, players from various communities entered different rooms one after another, following the established strategy.

During this process, Cai Zhiyuan was not idle either.

He, along with Zheng Jie and two other players from Community 8, stood in a position clearly close to the '13-person room' and frequently examined the number cards in their hands.

Xu Zhao was also keeping a close eye on him, and the two of them were each making their own plans.

In the 17th community, numbers 7 and 8 were consecutive. Dai Yifan entered the "8-person room" with number 7 to meet Yang Yuting, while Zhou Guifen entered the "13-person room" with number 8. Zhou Guifen wasn't a free agent, but her early entry into the "13-person room" still showed a clear aggressiveness, making Xu Zhao somewhat uneasy.

Obviously, the 17th community could also choose to throw enough regular players and free agents into the '13-player room' to launch an attack.

For safety reasons, Xu Zhao also had to arrange for his own people to enter the "13-person room" to provide defense.

In particular, it is important to use free agents to occupy positions.

After discussing it with the players from Community 13, he decided to let one of the "free agents" from Community 13 enter the "13-person room" to reserve a spot.

Zheng Jie had no idea what was going on; he was just standing aside to support Cai Zhiyuan as he was asked.

He lowered his voice secretly and said, "I don't understand, Brother Cai, what are we doing?"

Cai Zhiyuan explained calmly, "We are putting pressure on the 15th community, forcing them to defend."

"Simply put, 'free agents' are a resource that can be used for offense. When the number of 'malicious free agents' in a room reaches a certain level, the entire room will be at risk of collapsing."

"This number varies depending on the number of people in the room."

"Wang Weidong chose a room for 13 people, which would have more people and higher profits, but also a greater risk of collapse."

"If there are '4 malicious free agents' in this room, it is very likely to collapse."

"And this room can accommodate a total of 6 free people."

"Therefore, the four of us standing here can give him enough of a deterrent."

"According to the original plan of the 15th community, the two free agents from the 1st community should have been considered to occupy the positions."

"If the free agents in Community 1 can complete this task, then Xu Zhao might consider turning around and throwing the free agents under his control into the '8-person room' that we control."

"But the player numbers in Community 1 are relatively late."

“If we do nothing, Xu Zhao will definitely continue to wait.”

"That's why we're standing here putting pressure on each other, making an offensive stance as if we're ready to enter the '13-person room' at any time."

“Once all four of the free agents we have are in, the ‘13-person room’ may collapse.”

"It's very simple for us to defend the '8-man room': just send in one of our own liberos."

"Xu Zhao doesn't know our specific license plate numbers, and the license plate numbers he knows are generally earlier in the list, so to be on the safe side, we can only put in a 'free agent' from the 13th community to occupy a position and strengthen the defense."

Cai Zhiyuan had license plate number 21, which was very far back, but Xu Zhao was unaware of this.

Zheng Jie nodded; he knew this was a bluffing tactic.

Because he himself would definitely not go into the '13-person room', Cai Zhiyuan had already assigned him the task of dismantling the '4-person room'.

However, Zheng Jie noticed that Xu Zhao and Kong Yuxin were also keeping an eye on the situation in the '4-person room' in the 15th and 13th communities.

It's highly likely that both of them are also free agents and have the same plans as Zheng Jie.

Just then, the player from Community 1 holding the number 12 card finally entered the '4-player room,' bringing the number of players in the room to 2.

Zheng Jie is next.

Cai Zhiyuan immediately said, "Go straight in."

Zheng Jie was taken aback for a moment: "But there aren't enough for three people in the room."

Cai Zhiyuan shook his head: "I'm not waiting anymore. It's already your turn. Besides, if you wait any longer, other free agents from other communities might snatch it up."

Zheng Jie nodded, strode forward, swiped his number card at the door of the '4-person room', and pushed the door open to enter.
