God's Imitator

Lin Sizhi was already having breakfast in the hall, and he was also seriously contemplating the meaning behind this information.

Among everyone present, he was the only player who had seen similar information before, but compared to the last time, this information had two obvious differences.

Firstly, there was no mention of ’entering the next phase’ in this information.

Secondly, the reward was no longer two, but one, and this sole reward was not a three-choice option but a two-choice option.

So for Lin Sizhi, he could confirm the following points from this information:

Yao Yuan was indeed an S-Class Imitator because only when an S-Class Imitator dies could such a situation occur.

However, from Walkway’s perspective, Yao Yuan’s death was not on the same level as Cai Zhiyuan’s death, hence the difference in rewards.

Perhaps because a sole winner had not yet been determined, or perhaps because Walkway believed that the entire community had not yet met the conditions to ’enter the next phase’.

In any case, Walkway only provided a reduced version of the reward.

But for other players who had never seen this information before, it was already shocking enough.

Qin Cheng was the last player to arrive in the hall.

His waking time hadn’t changed; it was just that everyone else got up earlier.

And upon seeing the information on the big screen, Qin Cheng paused for a long time, seemingly reading each word several times.

Finally, he turned and looked at everyone, and his always serious face finally showed a hint of a smile.

"I told you, I was right."

Ye Lin’s expression was somewhat complex: "Yes, you were right."

Lu Qi was still puzzled: "What was right?"

Ye Lin explained, "We had never seen this information before, Walkway wouldn’t give us a reward for no reason.

"Yao Yuan’s death was the only unique event that occurred in the past two days, and the death of a general player could not result in a reward from Walkway.

"Therefore... Yao Yuan was indeed an S-Class Imitator.

"That’s the only explanation."

She looked at Lin Sizhi, seeking his opinion.

Lin Sizhi nodded, expressing agreement.

Lu Qi realized, "So that’s it! If Yao Yuan was truly an S-Class Imitator, wouldn’t that be something to be very thankful for?

"After all, he was just one vote away from being able to go to another community.

"At that point, the revenge of an S-Class Imitator would be terrifying to even think about..."

The others also showed relieved expressions.

Last night, for many players, it must have been a sleepless night.

Because many players were unsure if Lu Bingjun and Yao Yuan were really guilty, even though the voting pattern was lopsided, each person’s reason for making a decision might not have been the same.

So after everything settled, many players likely tossed and turned like Huang Shengjie, unable to sleep, worried about what if they chose wrong.

If Yao Yuan wasn’t an Imitator?

That would mean they had ousted the community leader and killed a veteran player who contributed greatly to the community.

Originally, such doubts would have continued to torment them, eroding the trust throughout the community, possibly even leading Community 2 to a dead end.

But no one expected that Walkway would personally verify the results.

So their moods instantly lifted from a low point, and they even felt genuinely grateful.

Ye Lin pointed at the big screen, "Claim the reward, it’s what you deserve."

This two-choice information could only be heard by Qin Cheng, who could make any choice without needing to tell other players the truth.

Qin Cheng went to the vending machine, bought breakfast, and randomly found a place to sit.

Then, he made a decision.

"I choose the second option."

[Community 2 will receive 3 Immunity Coupons.]

Qin Cheng explained, "The first option is gaining 1.2 million minutes of visa time, which I can allocate at will.

"I think the Immunity Coupons are more precious."

Everyone was surprised as they each got up and went to the vending machine to check.

Sure enough, on the original special merchandise interface, the purchasable Immunity Coupon was still on cooldown, but next to it were three stacked small icons: three brand new Immunity Coupons.

Ye Lin could hardly contain her surprised expression: "Does this mean our community can have up to 4 Immunity Coupons at once?

"4!"

The surprise came so suddenly that it was almost hard for everyone to believe.

They understood what 4 Immunity Coupons meant: it wasn’t just the quantity that mattered, but that multiple Immunity Coupons did not share a cooldown period and could be used simultaneously.

If they encounter a game like the ’Trust Marketplace’, they could completely use two Immunity Coupons successively to forcibly save a player in the community.

Of course, in some special games, imitators could still bypass the Immunity Coupons, such as deathtraps in ’Repentance Poker’ or heart-wrenching pain in ’One Word Breaks the Prison’.

But such situations only seemed to occur in special judgment-type games.

For most common game types, the regular way of dying still involved an ’Instant Death Penalty’, which these Immunity Coupons could address.

"That’s wonderful..." Lu Qi even intertwined his fingers in prayer, tears welling up in his eyes.

Such a reward was indeed rich enough to breathe new life into the community.

After breakfast, everyone gathered around the long table again.

The head seat originally belonging to Lu Bingjun was still empty, and the First Player Identity Card was still placed there.

Qin Cheng looked around and said, "Let’s handle the aftermath.

"There are two urgent matters that need resolving within the community:

"First, vote to confirm the new ’First Player’;

"Second, decide on the recruitment method for new members to fill the three vacancies in the community.

"There are three relatively less urgent items that still require follow-up resolution:

"Rethink the community’s organizational structure and various proposals, including the pain exemption list;

"Review the community funds accumulated during this period and try to activate new products;

"Mourn and commemorate Wei Changfeng, and re-establish the values and moral standards of the entire Community 2. Of course, the third is not mandatory, just my personal suggestion.

"Does anyone have anything to add?

"Sister Yelin, what do you think?"

Ye Lin pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Yes, I agree."

No one raised any objections.

Qin Cheng continued, "I was considering that it might be necessary to provide a more detailed and thorough explanation of all my previous actions.

"After all, my decisions caused a significant upheaval in the community.

"But now it seems unnecessary."

He paused briefly, then returned his attention to the prepared meeting agenda in his hands.

"Then, let’s proceed item by item.

"First, confirm the candidate within the community to hold the ’First Player Identity Card’ again.

"We can conduct a direct all-member vote.

"Or, we can first nominate a few candidates for election, allow each to make campaign speeches in turn, and then determine the winner through multiple rounds of voting."
