God's imitator

Chapter 450 The Spread of Rules

目前何肖军已经看了10个盒子，已经出现过的财富券数值有200、2000和2万三种，其中200是极少数情况，只出现了2次，其他的盒子都是2000和2万的。

However, according to He Xiaojun's estimate, there must be one box worth 20 yuan among these 22 boxes.

The "Empress" wanted to hide this 20 box until the very end.

Moreover, judging from the current rules, it's easy to hide: as long as He Xiaojun doesn't directly select the 20 box for the first time, '↑Empress' just needs not to point it out.

"So, if I want to find this box worth 20, there are two possibilities, but there is no hope until the very end."

He Xiaojun looked at the boxes. All the boxes that had been selected had been opened, and the wealth coupons inside were either placed on the 'Thief's' side or on the 'Sage's' side. These boxes could no longer be selected.

And the number of unopened boxes is dwindling.

However, assuming there is a '20 boxes', the probability of being selected will be greatly increased in the last two chances.

It could be a direct selection, or it could be that after selecting '2 boxes', since '2000 boxes' no longer exists, then '↑Queen' must point to the '20 boxes'.

"If I can get that 20 boxes, I should be able to win!"

He Xiaojun was extremely eager to win this match, so after consideration, he made his choice again: "Box No. 5, 'The Pope'".

Upon opening it, I found it contained another 2000 wealth coupons.

The Queen pointed: "Its 'mother and daughter box' is 'star' number 17."

He Xiaojun decisively said, "Change."

However, upon opening it, it contained another 200 wealth coupons.

But He Xiaojun wasn't particularly frustrated, because as the boxes containing 200 and 2000 wealth coupons were opened one after another, it meant that the box containing 20 was very close to him.

However, he still couldn't find it even after the last time the box was replaced.

He Xiaojun was stunned: "How could this be? It couldn't possibly be one of the two boxes I didn't choose, could it?"

In this game, the 'Thief' stole wealth from 10 wooden boxes, totaling 79600 Wealth Vouchers.

[The Sage has 140800 Wealth Coupons remaining.]

[Please leave the game room and wait for the next round to begin.]

Upon seeing this result, He Xiaojun realized that the "20 boxes" did not actually exist among these boxes.

Back in the lounge, He Xiaojun frowned as he pondered the upcoming match.

"So this is a defensive strategy... It seems that the opponent is a relatively weak player like me, using this method to secure wins and ensure that they don't give too many Wealth Tokens to the opposing community."

"But if they are relatively weak players, how could they come up with such a strategy in such a short time? It doesn't make any sense at all!"

"However, it seems that '↑Empress' comes from a relatively strong community, possibly one of the four main communities. Although their players cannot communicate with each other, they have obviously adopted some kind of cooperative strategy."

"That is, stronger players try to maximize their earnings and fill up their wealth vouchers in each round; while weaker players should adopt a defensive strategy to secure wins and not carry too many wealth vouchers to avoid losing too much to other communities."

"In this way, the two types of players can be considered to have their own roles... "If that's the case, it's a completely different style from our community. I haven't been able to tell which players are from the same community yet, let alone see any cooperation between them."

"In comparison, the '↑Queen' strategy is more suitable for players like me to copy."

"His idea was actually very simple. He didn't really use any special tricks or tricks. He mainly divided the wealth coupons into three categories, with 2000 and 2 wealth coupons being the most common, and a very small number of 200 wealth coupons."

"After the game starts, when pointing out the 'Mother and Daughter Box,' we won't deliberately point out boxes with smaller values; we'll leave the internal conflict to the 'Thief' player."

"Although the specific principles are unclear, judging from the '↑Empress's' strategic arrangements, it should make little difference to the 'Thief' whether to switch or not."

"That's why he specifically added a rule: after exchanging boxes, he would earn a fixed 10% commission, so that the expected return for the 'Sage' side would always be positive..."

"In that case, I should be able to use this strategy when I'm in charge of the 'Sage' role. It's just that the name 'Mother and Daughter Box' is a bit strange, isn't it? Wouldn't 'Relationship Box' or something similar be more appropriate?"

"Damn it, why is it that no matter what strategy I use, I always only understand it after I've already fallen into a trap..."

A new game has begun. He Xiaojun glanced at his screen and realized that this time he was a 'spectator'.

"I need to take this opportunity to observe the current situation carefully. Players' strategies are constantly being updated, and strategies that worked before may no longer be effective. I need to think about it again."

"I'll be the 'Sage' in the next game, I absolutely have to win..."

He Xiaojun returned to the audience room and looked around.

Compared to the last time I came, there was a noticeable change in the number of people in the room.

After all, all players rotate between three identities, and the order is completely shuffled.

It was because of this that He Xiaojun met some of the players he had seen on the screen before.

For example, "↓The Hanged Man".

In the game two rounds ago, he had just missed out on 1100 million wealth vouchers. Although he was wearing a mask, it was still clear that he was somewhat frustrated. He casually found a corner seat and lowered his head to think.

A moment later, He Xiaojun looked at the screens in the audience rooms and found that the number of rooms using the "digital bomb" rule had increased significantly.

At least five or six rooms used the "↑Wheel of Fortune" rules, only differing slightly in wording and details.

One of the core rules is that the 'thief' player must guess the number correctly on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 7th, and 8th attempts. All rooms have adopted this rule without any changes.

Clearly, all the "wise" players who follow this rule have realized that this is the core secret of the "number bomb." Changing this rule could trigger some fatal loopholes, causing them to become clowns who blindly imitate others and give away huge amounts of wealth vouchers to their opponents.

As for the 'thief' players who fight against them, their choices also vary.

Some more conservative players chose to give up the challenge and used the first strategy to take all 10 wooden boxes.

However, this way, 'wise' players can keep 12 chests, ensuring a stable additional 100 million wealth vouchers.

However, some 'thief' players who didn't believe in the superstition chose to take on the challenge.
