God's Imitator

Some other communities had also clearly realized this point.

Community 12’s Chen Guangming’s plan was to scatter the remaining 11 people into loose sand, ultimately establishing his own one-man rule.

Community 15’s Wang Weidong temporarily couldn’t achieve this and could only suppress the opposition through Xu Zhao and his hardcore supporters, but hidden dangers existed.

Community 4’s Han Mengying’s method was to establish a tyranny of the majority with 7 against 5.

And Community 17 seemed to not want to solve this problem at all, seemingly wanting to dance on a tightrope, continuously maintaining the delicate situation of multiple strong players coexisting.

But for Wang Yongxin, if he wanted to obtain ’unrestricted power,’ Community 4 was actually a better choice.

Because in the ecosystems of Communities 12 and 15, there was basically no place for him.

In Community 4, with Han Mengying as the community’s leader willing to give up her position, as long as Wang Yongxin could demonstrate sufficiently strong strength, he could smoothly take over power.

’↓The Emperor’ considered for a moment and asked, ”What about the gender issue?”

Han Mengying shook her head. ”Perhaps the outside world has some misunderstandings about our community.”Although when persuading some excellent female players to join, I often emphasize the gender composition in the community, this has never been the most important issue.

”In the Gallery, sufficiently strong players can arbitrarily change the rules. This is a matter of course.”

Community 4 was indeed a community where female players held the dominant position. This wasn’t any secret. Han Mengying would use this reason to poach excellent female players from other communities.

But this didn’t equate to ’Community 4’s leader and core players must all be female.’

After all, Qi Fan was a male player and was also in the core group.

For Community 4, as long as the strong were strong enough, could win games, bring sufficient benefits, and were willing to tilt power within the community toward female players, then there was completely no problem.

’Male core player in Community 4’ and ’oppressed male player in Community 4’ were two completely different identities, and each had their place in the ecosystem Han Mengying had created.

Seemingly worried she wasn’t being clear enough, Han Mengying added, ”Since I’ve already decided to give up the core position in the community to you, then naturally how to transform the community is also for you to decide.

”If you believe this ecosystem has room for optimization, we can of course also cooperate with you to make changes.

”However, based on the intelligence I’ve obtained and my observations and understanding of you, you don’t reject this kind of ecosystem, right?

”In ’Conglomerate Nation,’ you cooperated very well with female players from the same community.”

’↓The Emperor’ didn’t speak, which was tantamount to acquiescence.

On this point, the intelligence Han Mengying had collected had no problems.

In Community 17, most of Wang Yongxin’s cooperation partners were female, including Yang Yuting, Xu Tong, Jiang He, and so on. On one hand, this was because under Community 17’s ecosystem he could only unite with these people, but on the other hand, it was also because he believed these people were easier to control.

As long as he could ensure he held the highest power, then distributing a large amount of mid-level power to female players was also fine.

Sometimes this kind of structure could actually make those in power more stable.

Up to now, Han Mengying had indeed shown sufficient sincerity. The question was, how authentic were these words of hers really?

’↓The Emperor’ lowered his head in thought for a moment and didn’t directly refuse or raise doubts. This indicated he roughly recognized the authenticity of Han Mengying’s words.

This wasn’t actually difficult to understand. The strategy of deception, when used on the weak versus the strong, often produced completely different effects.

The weak were deceived not only because they weren’t smart. Much of the time it was also because they simply had no choice and no ability to retaliate.

But the strong were different. They had many choices and also had the ability to retaliate, so deceiving the strong was often more trouble than it was worth.

For Han Mengying, if she could really poach Wang Yongxin to Community 4, the benefits would far exceed the small gains from deceiving Wang Yongxin.

’↓The Emperor’ seemed to already have an answer, but he still didn’t give a clear reply. Instead, he changed the topic.

”Then, which Core Community do you ultimately plan to make bottom out with instant death for everyone?”

Han Mengying pointed at wooden box number 3 on the table, then said:

”First, I must admit that I do indeed view the community you’re currently in as the greatest threat.

”But in this game, the probability of the community you’re currently in bottoming out is very low. After all, there are too many strong players.

”And in that case, you would also have death risk, and there would be completely no foundation for cooperation between us.

”So, I’ll prioritize cooperating with this community.”

As Han Mengying spoke, she pointed again at wooden box number 15.

’↓The Emperor’ considered for a moment and said, ”That’s equivalent to forcing the remaining two communities to cooperate. Are you certain you can win?

”Don’t expect that I’ll reveal any information to you or cooperate with your plan. Only if you rely on your strength to win this game will I consider accepting your invitation.”

If Community 4 and Community 15 cooperated, then Community 3 would most likely also go find Community 17 to cooperate. This was beyond doubt.

But in that case, on paper, Community 3 and Community 17 clearly had the advantage, and the situation from ’Fool’s Game’ might repeat itself.

Han Mengying shook her head. ”Of course I can’t reveal the specific plan to you now, but this game will ultimately be a stage for displaying ’control.’ I believe my strategy can win in the end.”

’↓The Emperor’ considered for a moment and looked at wooden box number 3. ”What do you think is this community’s greatest weakness?”

Han Mengying thought about it and ultimately was relatively honest. ”Many people believe that this community’s greatest weakness is the uneven strength of members. Only the core players are strong enough, while other players have poor levels, which will cause them to be unable to keep up the pace in some high-intensity games.

”But this is obviously wrong.

”I believe this community’s biggest problem lies in the style of the core players: frequently wavering between two sides and trying to obtain maximum benefits from it as much as possible.

”On one hand, this is due to her personality and game style, and on the other hand, it’s also because doing this is necessary to ensure the community’s overall returns.

”But for other communities, they don’t want to see fence-sitters always winning in the end.

”At the current stage, firmly taking sides and uniting is increasingly becoming the only choice.”

There wasn’t much time left in the match.

’↓The Emperor’ didn’t give his own evaluation of this, only nodding slightly. ”I’ll decide whether to accept your proposal based on the game’s final results.”
