God's imitator

Chapter 465 Thorough Investigation

The true identity of "↑Lover" is Han Mengying, and she has confirmed that "↓Emperor" is Wang Yongxin from Community 17.

Between communities, players are also using various means to gather information and spy on each other. In this game, communities that are prepared in advance will have a complete advantage in this regard.

In a previous match, Han Mengying was matched with "↓ Emperor". At that time, "↓ Emperor" had not yet given his own rules, and the two played with "Number Bomb".

However, during the match, Han Mengying was able to roughly determine her opponent's strength through observation.

Strategies may be imitated and copied, but the details of implementing strategies and the ability to adapt to changing circumstances cannot be improved in a short period of time.

In this game, as long as the player's strength can be determined, and combined with the appearance of the mask and the interaction with other players, the true identity can be roughly determined.

Therefore, Han Mengying extended an olive branch to the "Emperor".

The Emperor's attitude was ambiguous; he neither explicitly agreed nor explicitly refused.

At that time, there was limited time left in the game, so he only said that after entering the free battle phase, he would match a game and then talk in detail.

Therefore, after entering the free matching phase, Han Mengying immediately extended an invitation, and '↓Emperor' accepted, which is a good sign.

"You need to convince me from two aspects."

"The first question is, 'Why does your community need me?'"

"The second is 'Why should I go to your community?'"

You only have time for this one game.

The Emperor's attitude was far from friendly; in fact, it could be described as somewhat arrogant. However, Han Mengying didn't mind. After all, in this game where life and death were decided, the strong always had more privileges.

After considering it, Han Mengying said, "First of all, I must frankly say that I have recently come to realize more and more clearly that our community is not strong enough."

"Previously, I was somewhat optimistic about the overall strength of the community, but several losses in matches and the unexpected casualties within the community have forced me to reflect."

"Perhaps my previous attitude was somewhat arrogant. As a community leader, I should take responsibility for this outcome."

"Of course, I still believe that the ecosystem our community has built is the best ecosystem, where the strong control everything and the weak make the best use of resources."

"But the biggest problem is that the strong in our community are still not strong enough."

"This is purely a matter of individual ability, unrelated to community building, and cannot be solved through any training."

"For me, there is only one option: to give enough say in order to attract strong external partners to join us."

"You don't need to doubt my and our community's determination to seek out talent. After all, in our community's ecosystem, the strong occupy the best niche, which also means that the community's desire for the strong is the strongest."

The Emperor nodded slightly, seemingly quite satisfied with the answer.

The ecology of Community 4 is no secret; Community 17 already knew about it back in the days of "The Kingdom of the Tycoons".

In other games, you should also be familiar with the community that matches you with the fourth community.

After all, it's no secret that Han Mengying has enough confidence in the ecosystem of the 4th Community and has been using this as a condition to persuade strong people from other communities to join.

For the strong, in some communities they must take care of the feelings of the weak. Whether it is entering the game or helping the weak, they often do not have much autonomy.

However, the situation is different in the fourth community. Once you enter the core group of seven, you can easily suppress the remaining five, and it doesn't matter if you use these players as expendable resources or cannon fodder. This is still attractive to many players.

Of course, the risk is that in such a community, you must always make sure you are the "stronger one". If you don't perform well enough, you are likely to be kicked out of the group of seven and become the oppressed one.

But for players who are skilled enough, this is certainly not a concern.

Han Mengying continued, "I have also done some investigation into your situation and have a certain understanding of it."

"I know that the community you are in now is very strong overall, and it can be said to be the strongest of all communities so far. So even if you don't have enough say in the community, you still have a reason to stay."

"After all, going to other communities is full of unknowns, and the risk and opportunity costs of this matter must be fully considered."

"But what I want to say is that the environment is already changing, and past decisions may no longer be suitable for the current situation."

"You must have noticed that the pace of the arcade has been increasing."

"The player attrition rate is gradually increasing, while the rate of new player recruitment is slowing down, and many communities remain in a state of attrition for a long time without being replenished."

"In the game, the arcade is clearly encouraging different communities to poach each other's members and reorganize into one another."

"Therefore, I think the game arcade doesn't want any community to survive peacefully forever. It will continuously increase the difficulty of the game and the intensity of the clashes. The ultimate goal should be to continuously filter out stronger players."

"For the strong, competition and chaos are risks, but also stepping stones to advancement."

"The more we are at this stage, the more important it is to have 'absolute power of discourse'."

"Because as the intensity increases, the outcome of the game may no longer depend on simple strategy, but also on the control and dominance of players in the same community, as well as the degree of organization formed by the community through high-pressure rules."

"On this point, we should be in agreement."

"Only under these circumstances can you maximize your abilities and talents and show your strongest side."

The Emperor fell silent. Han Mengying was certain that her words should have some effect.

She knew very well that the 4th Community was no match for the 17th Community in terms of overall strength.

The clashes in "The Kingdom of the Tycoons" and "The Fool's Game" illustrate this point.

The fact that Wang Yongxin was able to become a core player in the 17th community is enough to prove that he is a stronger player than Han Mengying.

If we're talking about keywords like "safety" and "security," then Community 17 is undoubtedly the most competitive community.

This is also the main reason why Wang Yongxin is temporarily unwilling to leave the 17th community.

Therefore, Han Mengying chose to persuade him from other angles.

That is, "greater freedom" or "greater, unrestricted power".

Although Wang Yongxin also gained some power in Community 17, it is clear that this power was far from "uncontrolled." In fact, it could be said that the powerful figures in Community 17 were the most restricted of all the communities.

Therefore, certain strategies cannot be implemented in the game, such as abandoning a minority of people in the community to ensure victory.
