God's Imitator

In the next second, everyone realized they were back in the hall.

The final settlement of this game simultaneously appeared on the big screen.

[Now announcing Community 2’s final visa time acquisitions in the ’Jury Game.’]

[No. 1 Qin Cheng: 94286]

[No. 3 Zhang Yan: 78286]

[No. 8 Ye Lin: 94786]

[No. 12 Lin Sizhi: 163704]

[No. 13 Lu Qi: 76786]

[No. 14 Huang Shengjie: 76286]

According to community rules, 30% of the net gains will be included in the community development fund, and the remaining visa time will be credited to each player’s visa.

Wen Wan incredulously reconfirmed the numbers, her expression somewhat shocked: "The gains from role-playing games can be this much?

"They’re almost like the allocation games!"

Her tone seemed tinged with regret.

After all, replacing Lu Qi with any person from the community would likely yield the same result.

Yao Yuan pondered: "This means betting was all correct, and they got visa time divided from other players.

"A total victory."

Old players in the Walkway were well aware that the average default gains from most games are generally between 40,000 to 50,000. This is both from observation and the underlying logic designed by the Walkway and Imitator.

Because the visa time needed for a month is about 43,200 minutes.

In the community, due to the rotation of players participating in the games, most general players, except a few strong ones, participate in one to two games per month.

Participating in a game once a month and obtaining average gains, along with extra gains from allocation games and community benefits, ensures most average players can barely make ends meet, maintaining the necessary expenses for daily life.

Each game offers 40,000 minutes, which is the survival line for players in the New World.

Thus, observing the final settlement information in the community hall allows guessing how players progressed in this game.

If multiple players exceeded average gains, then the game certainly was won with a major advantage.

The gains for Zhang Yan, Lu Qi, Huang Shengjie are all slightly above average, and Ye Lin, Qin Cheng seem to have additional income.

Lin Sizhi, as a player forcibly selected for the game, unexpectedly received as much as 160,000 visa time, which is higher than in allocation games.

Due to the function of the First Player Identity Card, players in the community could also see the basic rules in advance.

Therefore, a player like Yao Yuan can certainly deduce specific income items from seeing the settlement number right away, thereby guessing more game details.

Lu Bingjun was also pleased with these results.

"Seems like the results are quite good this time. I said with our community’s two core players leading, winning this game should be no problem.

"We, the players remaining in the community, also saw the basic rules of the game; to be honest, we were worried for you.

"I guess there must be more than one hidden rule in this game, right?

"Everyone worked hard, would you like to rest a bit?"

Huang Shengjie, still immersed in the game, said excitedly, "I don’t want to rest yet; my mind is still running high!"

Qin Cheng nodded as well: "Yeah, the game intensity for us five audience members was actually quite low, and at the end of the game, there were actually 30 minutes allocated for ’Recollecting the Performance.’

"So, we five shouldn’t be too tired.

"Mainly, we need to see if Lawyer Lin and Lu Qi need a rest.

As ’Actors,’ Lawyer Lin’s intensity in this game was much higher than us audience, so the consumption must be significant.

Lu Qi has only participated in two games, and the intensity of this game is higher than ’Prison Factory,’ so as a new player, he might also need rest and adaptation."

Lin Sizhi returned from the vending machine with a cup of coffee: "I’m okay, not really tired."

Lu Qi quickly replied, "I’m not tired either. Actually, when you guys explained the hidden mechanics, I only understood half of it; luckily, I successfully voted at the last moment.

"But there are still many doubts I haven’t figured out...

"I just want to quickly find out what exactly happened."

Lu Bingjun immediately decided: "Alright, since the game’s progress was very smooth and everyone is so enthusiastic, let’s start the review directly."

Everyone first went to the vending machine to buy snacks or drinks and then sat down at the long table.

Lu Bingjun started by saying, "Let me first roughly guess the composition of this settlement’s gains.

"Besides Lawyer Lin, all your audience’s final numbers are the same, suggesting that in the ’Curtain Call Vote’ for a certain actor, you voted against, successfully splitting all the visa time from the players who voted in support of that actor.

"Besides that, Zhang Yan, Lu Qi, and Huang Shengjie, your gains are close, suggesting you executed similar actions in betting.

"As for the minor differences, it might be an ’Examining Evidence’ issue?

"Because each piece of evidence or testimony requires 10 players to contribute 500 minutes each, you used the examining function with varying frequencies, resulting in discrepancies in visa time spent.

"Qin Cheng and Ye Lin, you both gained an additional 20,000, so you must have increased your bets?

"As for Lawyer Lin... such a large amount of visa time must be earned from other ’Actors,’ the only question is whether it came from consuming two actors or consuming all the other three.

"I guess it must be the former, as the gain numbers are closer.

"Moreover, from the game’s mechanics perspective, it’s almost impossible for a weak ’Lawyer’ role to take down three opponents simultaneously, unless all three opponents are really bad."

Ye Lin nodded: "We bet together, the only difference being that the three of them bet 30,000, while Qin Cheng and I bet 40,000, resulting in around 17,000 additional minutes of visa time earnings."

Huang Shengjie seemed surprised: "Wow? Brother Lu, that’s amazing, you guessed it all!"

Lu Bingjun smiled: "It’s nothing; I believe many of us here could also guess it.

"Then, shall we revisit the game rules and briefly recount the game’s specific process?

"Retrieve the detailed rules of ’Jury Game.’

The earning information on the big screen disappeared, and the detailed rules of the ’Jury Game’ appeared.

Players who remained in the community had already seen the basic rules, so theoretically they were quite familiar.

But upon seeing a key piece of information, everyone still widened their eyes in surprise.

"S-Class game?

"Is this ranking even possible?"

Huang Shengjie looked at Lu Bingjun and Shen Bowen in shock.

Lu Bingjun silently shook his head: "Didn’t see it in the first phase games."

Shen Bowen also shook his head: "Never saw it."

Lin Sizhi observed Ye Lin and the expressions and reactions of other old members of Community 2; it seemed Lu Bingjun wasn’t lying.

Most players showed evident surprise; this indeed felt like seeing an S-Class game for the first time.

If during the whole first phase, they only ever saw A and B game ratings, it’s really easy to think the Walkway had only those two ratings.

After all, people are prone to unconsciously see the things they are accustomed to as established rules.

And when these established rules are broken, the brief bewilderment and surprise are hard to perfectly mask.

This might mean that the game leading to Wei Changfeng’s death wasn’t S-Class?

Lin Sizhi couldn’t assert anything just yet, but he believed with more information, the truth would eventually come to light.

Lu Qi asked with some surprise: "Is this perhaps a new rule only in the second phase where S-Class games can appear? What’s different from A ratings? I don’t really feel it..."

Qin Cheng asked: "Then... Lawyer Lin, have you seen it before? An S-Class game."

Lin Sizhi nodded: "I’ve seen it."
