Chapter 851: eight hundred and forty-nine

  Chapter 851 Chapter 849 · "Will Su Mingan become Asa Acto?"

 In another room, the people monitoring the meeting looked nervous.

"What did Mizushima Kawakora want to say? Why did she confront Su Ming'an in this situation?"

“Should we turn off the live broadcast before she speaks?” Xia Zuo from the Institute of Social Development suggested.

 In this room, there are Chief of Staff Ashkel, Deputy Chief of Staff Kentaro Suzuki, Vice President Andrew, Glenn Demps, Forum Management Department Hubert, Yangtze River System Deng Lin, Qin Xiaohui. Secretaries, logistics, business personnel, public opinion experts, and senior managers are all included.

Of course, this kind of "meeting of all perfect passers" cannot be completely laissez-faire. If someone says something inappropriate in front of the whole world, the joint team must find a way to make up for it as soon as possible.

 The staff stared at the monitoring screen and were ready to quickly guide public opinion.

"Let her speak." A majestic voice came from the main control room: "We can't shut everyone's mouths. Now the perfect passers are more important than us. All we can do is respect their actions and then make up for them. Mistakes made.”

 Ashkel’s heart tightened, but he didn’t refute. He is well aware of the changes in today's times. No matter how much the United Group can guide public opinion and have more manpower, it will ultimately not be able to replace the role of perfect passers.

They worked hard for more than four months, established the internal rules and regulations of the organization, established the Peace Dove Mutual Aid Hospital, studied the integration and innovation of human technology and world game technology, established a love mutual aid team, and regularly released free strategies... Various measures are essentially just In order to maintain the internal order and stability of human beings, we cannot resist external enemies. Although the United Group's contribution to human unity was great, it did not contribute to the points progress bar.

Without the United Group, the world of the Lord God would not be as stable as it is now. There will just be countless fanatics, suicide bombers, psychopaths. The United Group has a role to play, and it's a big one.

 But the real wartime results can only be achieved by adventure players. The heavy responsibility for the fate of mankind has clearly fallen on the heads of the 'perfect passers'. Only they can make the wish to 'drive out high-dimensional creatures'.

"Controlling public opinion, preventing internal chaos among human beings, and preventing people from targeting 'perfect passers' is what we can do at the moment." Kentaro Suzuki said: "Suppress public jealousy and unwillingness, encourage public envy and The emotion of admiration, emphasizing the sense of human honor, monitoring sensitive words, and guiding the actions of self-media, forum media, and forum players are our most important tasks."

 People agreed.

In the conference room, Mizushima Kawakora had already stood up, his eyes like ice piercing straight towards Su Ming'an.

Su Mingan looked at her calmly, waiting for her words.

Under the bright incandescent light, her face was as pale as a lunatic who had just escaped from the hospital.

"Su Ming'an." Mizushima Kawakawa said: "I want to say that my wish is—I want to gain the authority to resurrect others at no cost."

 Everyone looked startled.

They didn’t expect that Mizushima Kawakora would make such a big move just to express her own wish.

"So, no matter what your wish is." Mizushima Kawakora's eyes were like thorns: "I will not conflict with you, just remember."

Her tone is sharp and harsh, but what she says is relaxing.

"Really?" Su Mingan leaned forward: "Is this really your wish? Miss Mizushimagawa?"

“Of course.” Mizushima Kawakora said firmly.

"But what if it can't be 'free of cost'? If you can resurrect the authority of others, but it comes with various costs, will you still make this wish unswervingly?" Su Mingan said.

The thirty-four people in the conference room, including more than a hundred people monitored next door, and hundreds of millions of people in the live broadcast... were all watching the exchange between the two of them.

Su Mingan was obviously looking up at Mizushima Kawakora while sitting on the chair, but when their eyes met, it seemed like he was looking down at her.

Mizushima Kawakawa's fingers trembled slightly, and she said coldly: "If it is a price I can pay, of course I will not hesitate. Therefore, I will not change my wish."

Su Mingan said: "If this is your wish, then you will not conflict with anyone else's wish."

"But." There was a twist in his words: "Making a wish is the ultimate 'prisoner's dilemma' - you must have realized this, so you took the initiative to reveal your wish to me."

  【Prisoner's Dilemma】.

 Hearing this word, everyone present can understand its meaning.

—It is a representative example of a non-zero-sum game in game theory, reflecting that "the best choice for an individual is not the best choice for the group."

Two criminals are about to be imprisoned and cannot communicate with each other. If neither criminal exposes the other, each will only serve a year in prison. If one person exposes the other party and the other person remains silent, the one who exposed the other party will be released immediately, and the one who remains silent will be imprisoned for ten years. If they expose each other, both will be sentenced to eight years in prison. Since criminals cannot trust each other, they tend to expose each other rather than remain silent together, leading to the worst possible outcome.

 This illustrates why cooperation can be difficult even when it benefits both parties.

 You don’t know what others will wish for, nor what you will get from their wishes.

 You don’t know whether your tendency to have positive desires will result in you having nothing because of others’ negative desires.

 You don’t know whether your efforts and sacrifices in your wish are just a stepping stone to realize his greater wish in the eyes of another “prisoner”.

                           by Mizushima Kawakawa's wish.

 【I want Mizushima Kawakawa to die】—the wish of a madman.

 This is an extreme example. Suppose a wish-maker makes a wish for Mizushima Kawakora to die. So even if Mizushima Kawakora obtains the power of resurrection, it will no longer have any meaning. The moment the wish takes effect, she will die, and her resurrection authority can only be established on the basis that she is still alive.

Second floor. If Su Ming'an completely believed Mizushima Kawakora's words, I believe she would make the wish "I want a resurrection authority." If Mizushima Kawa Sora goes back on his word at the last moment, this may happen:

 【I want to redeem Zhai Xing】—Su Mingan’s wish.

   【I don't want the power of resurrection anymore, that's what I deceived Su Ming'an, I want to make a wish to dominate Zhai Xing】——Mizushima Kawakora's wish.

 This will result in that after Zhai Xing is redeemed, Zhai Xing will immediately fall into the hands of Mizushima Kawakora. She became the ruler of the planet, controlling all forces and power. She immediately began to take revenge on all the people she hated, even killing Su Mingan.

Because "redeeming Zhai Xing" is a wish that Su Ming'an will definitely make, Mizushima Kawakora only needs to make a wish to "control Zhai Xing" when Su Ming'an makes a promise to "redempt Zhai Xing" to pick peaches - she can On the basis of Zhai Xing's redemption, she became the ruler of Zhai Xing.

Since she is the ruler of Zhai Star, Su Mingan, who has not made any wishes like "I want to ascend to a higher dimension" or "I want to become a high-dimensional creature", cannot escape her pursuit.

 In this way, only Su Ming'an will be harmed, which will lead to the outcome of the prisoner's dilemma of "one party is released and the other party is sentenced to ten years in prison."

the third floor. That is to add another layer of logic, if Su Mingan did not make a wish to "redeeme Zhai Xing", and Mizushima Kawakora thought that Su Mingan would make a wish to "redempt Zhai Xing", she made a wish to "control Zhai Xing" desire. This will lead to a situation like this:

 【I don’t want to redeem Zhai Xing anymore, I deceived Mizushima Kawakora, now I make a wish, I want to ascend the dimension】——Su Mingan’s wish.

 【I want to dominate Zhai Xing】——Mizushima Kawakora's wish.

This will result in Mizushima Kawakora becoming the master of Zhai Xing, but Zhai Xing will not be redeemed, and she will be killed by the high-dimensional creatures that follow closely. Su Ming'an also did not make his most desired wish "to redeem Zhai Xing" because he was concerned about Mizushima Kawakora. He just chose to be promoted to Gao Wei in order to prevent himself from being killed by Mizushima Kawakora, the master of Zhai Xing. This resulted in the worst ending of the prisoner's dilemma of "each being sentenced to eight years in prison".

Of course, under actual circumstances, it is impossible for Su Mingan to make such a wish. With the fate of the world at hand, he will not consider his own life or death. But few people know this.

 This is a "trial and balance".

 It is precisely because of taking these complex situations into consideration that this “Full Perfect Passers Conference” was created. Because when that time comes, there may be a third or fourth wish-maker, and the game and negotiation will be even more confusing. Logic is stacked on top of each other, never ending.

Su Mingan straightened his back and looked into Mizushima Kawakora's sharp eyes.

His eyes were as hot as fire, and the expectations and longing for "Miss Lighthouse" were no longer there.

"Miss Mizushimachuan, if I really told you my wish, would you believe it?" Su Mingan said: "Is your wish a wish that you would really make? If either of us says If you lie or change your wishes temporarily, the outcome will lead to the abyss. We cannot control ourselves from doubting each other. You yourself clearly understand this."

 —Chain of Suspicion.

 Making a wish is an unstoppable chain of suspicion.

 When one person becomes suspicious, the chain will continue forever until everyone is suspicious of each other.

“…” Mizushima Kawakora stared at Su Ming’an.

Her chest was heaving heavily, and her mood was obviously very unstable. Of course she had thought this through clearly, and everyone present understood these truths in their hearts.

 It’s just that they haven’t said it openly.

As long as one of the wish-makers temporarily reneges on the originally negotiated wish, the others will be destroyed based on game theory. Once they think of this, several other people will also doubt each other and consider whether to temporarily change their wishes. This leads to an endless chain of suspicion being passed on.

"Su Mingan..." Beiwang finally woke up. He glanced at the solemn atmosphere in the conference room and instantly understood what was going on.

Meyani pursed her lips tightly, not daring to interfere in this heavy atmosphere.

In the live broadcast room, the barrage was extremely chaotic:

  【Mizushima Kawa Sora is really crazy, look at her eyes, she looks like a madman! 】

   【The crazier a person is, the more sane they are. Maybe she has seen through the truth of the world and is more awake than any of us. There is a fine line between madness and genius, and I think Mizushima Kawa Sora is a genius. 】

  【Is there no room for reconciliation in this kind of conflict? 】

I understand, this is a perfect chain of suspicion - if I change my wish temporarily, you will suffer a devastating blow. If you change your wish temporarily, I will suffer a devastating blow. If you and I both change our wishes temporarily, we are both doomed. It would be best if both of them do not change their wishes. But we cannot control our suspicions. I cannot give my life and everything to the kindness and mercy of the other party. 】

  【Not to mention Mizushima Kawakawa and Su Ming'an. There is probably a feud between them for killing their sister. How could Mizushima Kawakora not take revenge on him? 】

  【There is no way to reconcile, there is no middleman. This is really a perfect chain of suspicion, so crazy, so cruel. 】

  【Unless one party dies before making a wish, only the most reliable one who made the wish is left in the end. 】

  【Hush, boo, how can you say that. All those who have completed the game perfectly are heroes, why should they die? 】

  【Just saying casually...We are all insignificant ants. The person who decides whether to kill his fellow travelers is the perfect clearer himself. But then the points progress bar may not be enough. 】

  【Can we really survive? 】

  【If all mankind pins its fate on one person, will this road be easy? 】

  【Will Su Mingan become Asa Akto? 】

  【Will history repeat itself? 】

  【I don't believe this is "reincarnation". 】

 …

Mizushima Kawakawa's breathing was heavy, and she clenched the silver necklace on her chest.

Reluctance, helplessness, struggle and anger overlapped and repeated on her face, and this uncomfortable silence lasted for a full thirty seconds. Everyone was watching this scene quietly.

 Thirty seconds later, she opened her lips with difficulty: "...I understand, Su Ming'an."

 …What did she understand?

 No one can understand this sentence.

 After saying this, she took a deep look at Su Mingan, with unspeakable and complicated emotions in her eyes, and then turned around and left.

There was a heavy slamming of the door, and everything inside was quiet.
