God's imitator

Chapter 394 Sharer

Outside the room, Jiao Hai said with some disdain, "...There's no danger at all. It's just getting beaten up a few more times."
“In the most extreme cases, I would just lie on the table and keep pressing the buttons until I could press for three minutes. At worst, I would get beaten up, and I think I could still pass the test.”

Fu Chen considered for a moment: "After all, this is a special punishment for Chen Ran. Perhaps the difference in physical strength between male and female players will also be reflected in the punishment?"

No one else spoke, but compared to the tense situation before, they were all somewhat relaxed.

Judging from Chen Ran's exclusive punishment, it was painful, but there was no danger to his life.

Finally, with about one minute left in the game, Chen Ran completed the game's objective, accumulating three minutes of button presses.

She let out a sigh of relief and stopped pressing the button.

Although continuing to press the button would earn her visa time bonuses, it was clearly meaningless to her.

The reward is for visa processing time, not financial aid.

If you get these two wrong, you might get a few more lashes.

Aside from choosing a seat, there's not much strategy involved in this game. Chen Ran was hit more than a dozen times, the exact number of which he'd lost count.

Shoulders, arms, thighs, back... many places bear whip marks.

The robotic arm appears to whip the target completely randomly, without any pattern, but because its back has the largest surface area, it is hit the most times.

The game ends in 1 minute.

With a "bang," the room door opened again.

Chen Ran stood up from his seat and suddenly stumbled, almost falling.

Only then did she realize that her whole body was burning with pain, especially the injury on her thigh, which made it difficult for her to move.

However, after catching his breath, Chen Ran still limped out of the room.

Fu Chen hurriedly went to greet him: "How are you? Are you alright?"

Chen Ran ignored him and silently returned to his seat.

……

Meanwhile, in the outdoor area.

After Chen Ran was chosen to receive his "exclusive punishment," an announcement was made outside.

[Chen Ran selected "Exclusive Punishment," and Wu Xiaomei automatically became the "Sharer" for this round of the game.]

Please share before the end of this round of the game.

Everyone looked at Wu Xiaomei, but she did not speak immediately. Instead, she continued to wait in front of the control panel.

After the countdown ended, she immediately took action and sent the available funds to Chen Ran.

The other players also completed their respective operations on the control panel.

Zhou Guifen chose to divide the funds into two portions, which were then tied to the "repair shop" and the "gas station" respectively.

According to the game rules, if players outside the game want to pass funds directly to players inside the game, they must agree on the conditions for using the funds.

That is, it can only be used on a specific device.

On the control panel, there are also simple descriptions of the functions of the five devices, for example:

[Gas station: Reduces the weight of the pen. The more you use it, the more weight you lose.]

It only had a brief sentence or two, which was enough to explain the purpose, but it lacked a lot of information compared to the actual equipment that players inside the venue saw.

You can't see the specific design, you can't hear the specific sound effects, and you can't see the specific amount of money required for each use.

The first 10 minutes before the start of the first round of the game do not allow funds to be passed, but this also gives the players outside the game ample time to think.

Zhou Guifen's idea was that the car she received wasn't very good, so it would be necessary to lose weight at the gas station.

From the perspective of the game content, this forward-raised posture is very strenuous, and the worse the pen, the heavier it is, making it even more difficult to control.

Moreover, Shen Xing is a female player, so her strength is naturally weaker, and she should at least lose weight once or twice.

Furthermore, judging from the actual performance of the players inside the arena, the probability of things "getting out of control" is higher than expected, and the consequences are severe. Therefore, reducing the number of "repair stations" that get out of control is also very useful.

The cost increases when each device is used multiple times, so it's definitely better to allocate the initial budget to different devices.

……

Wu Xiaomei was the "sharer" this time. When she arrived at the venue, she still looked at the big screen with a worried expression.

Chen Ran had already entered the room and was being tortured, while Wu Xiaomei's expression was full of worry.

"I love my child very much."

Wu Xiaomei looked at Chen Ran on the big screen, her eyes glistening with tears.

The other players exchanged glances; clearly, this was a statement that was almost entirely safe.

From the start of the game until now, all the players in the outdoor area should agree with this statement.

In this way, other players will not be forced to vote against Wu Xiaomei, but can vote freely.

But after waiting for a while, the system broadcast did not sound.

Clearly, this statement is too brief and does not comply with the requirements of the game rules.

Wu Xiaomei considered for a moment and continued, "I still remember when Ranran was little, she was very well-behaved and sensible. She was like a little angel, always calling me 'Mommy, Mommy.'"

"She learned to read very quickly when she was little. She was very smart. When the children next door were still struggling to speak, she could already recognize dozens of characters. The parents next door were very envious."

"She would always sit at the table, quietly learning to read. At that time, I was truly the happiest person in the world."

This time, the system broadcast sounded.

The sharer completed the sharing according to the game rules and received a reward:

"In a world where there are only drivers and cars, drivers don't need training or licenses; they're all self-taught."

The players were stunned. This so-called "reward" did not exist in the original rules, and it was just a sentence without any beginning or end.

When all the players were listening intently, there was no follow-up.

But in any case, the sharing was successfully completed. The next question is how to cast the "disagreement vote".

If you agree with the speaker's viewpoint, you can vote freely; if you disagree, you must vote for the speaker.

Clearly, all the players outside the venue agreed with what Wu Xiaomei said, which is why they were all hesitant.

After a moment's thought, Liu Mingxin suggested, "Could you all please hear me say a few words before you vote?"

She looked the youngest among all the players in the outdoor area; she was stylishly dressed and spoke with great poise.

"If you're going to vote freely, I suggest you consider that special hidden rule in the game:"

"Among the six players inside the venue, there is one 'super privilege player'."

"Once this person survives to the end, they will unlock 'super privileges,' which will allow them to directly decide the fate of one or two players."

"That means they can kill any one of us directly!"

"The rules also state that 'including but not limited to life and death'. We don't know what 'not limited to' means yet. It could mean that they could arbitrarily make us disabled, or even worse."

"So, we need to think carefully about who this player really is."

“We don’t have many ways to restrict this player, but we can use our ‘disagree votes’ to block the corresponding players in the outer field, thereby indirectly blocking their funding.”

"As long as he cannot successfully complete the challenge and does not survive until the end of the game, he will naturally not be able to unlock super privileges."

"The way to determine if someone is a 'super privilege player' is that neither of them feels guilty towards the other deep down."

"People can use this to vote."

The group looked at each other, but no one spoke for a moment.
