Chapter 2 Zero-sum game under a single-junction information set
"IβI can promise to resurrect others!" The boy named Luo Rong spoke.
"I can guarantee that!"
"I'm going to resurrect others too, and if I can do it, why don't I do that? No one wants anyone else to die, right? β
"Yes, if I were replaced, I would too, what about you?"
"I, I'll ...... too"
The crowd began to have such answers, and soon such answers were almost unanimous.
Miyoko looked down at us with a smile, blinked her eyes slightly, and said with a smile:
"I expected you to say that. Unfortunately, I want to tell you that there are actually twenty-eight teams participating in this game of God, and you are only seven of them, and the other twenty-one teams are in the other three separate war zones. So, even if you can agree to resurrect the dead, how can you guarantee that teams from other theaters will resurrect you? Also, I said beforehand, there are bloodthirsty murderers in other war zones who love to kill, do you think that if such people become 'gods', they will resurrect the dead? β
Miyoko's rhetorical question seemed to be stopped by everyone, and everyone looked at each other, or simply exchanged heads and ears, but there was nothing to do.
"I see, take advantage of the chain of suspicion between people." Xiao Chen bit his fingers and fell silent.
At this moment, the man wearing black tights and glasses walked out of the crowd, his waist straightened, he slowly raised his head, looked directly at Miyoko with a cold gaze, and said:
"Interrogative: How can you tell if what you said is true? Where does the fidelity of your logical propositions come from? Please give a judgment method. β
Miyoko let out a silver bell-like laugh and said:
"Your question is very sharp, Zhu Qingyun, I can only answer your question: there is no guarantee. You can only play this game, whether you want it or not, otherwise, I can let you suffer the same fate as Gao Tianfeng right now. β
Other words...... If you don't participate, do you die?
Miyoko's arrogant answer also frightened Zhu Qingyun, Zhu Qingyun looked at Miyoko with burning eyes, and asked again:
"Please give the probability range that the proposition you said earlier is true."
"Even if I tell you that the probability is one hundred percent, it may be zero percent for you, the probability is meaningless, isn't it, Zhu Qingyun?" Miyoko said with a smile.
This time, Zhu Qingyun fell into a long silence.
"I'm going to ask a question too," the young man in the blue trench coat asked again, and he looked at Miyoko with a serious face, "Can you tell me your motivation for holding this game?" From a motivational point of view, I can't understand the motivation behind all of your actions? Because your actions are not in line with the most economical principles, can you give us a purpose for doing so? Or is it all just for your fun, or is there something else that you have to do? β
"Hehe, Xu Feng, your question is also very interesting." Miyoko shook a finger and winked at Xu Feng, "As for why I did this, let's call it a 'mystery', and what I can tell you is that any of you who can solve this 'mystery' will be able to grasp the key to getting out of this game safely." β
Miyoko's answer made Xu Feng's eyes narrow, and at this time, a childish voice suddenly sounded from the crowd.
"I'm going to ask questions too! I have to ask questions too! β
I looked around, only to see a teenage boy running out from the back of the crowd, the little boy with big blue eyes, messy hair, and a mobile phone in his hand, filming Miyoko on the canopy and everyone around him.
I didn't expect such a small child in the crowd, and I couldn't help but be a little stunned. Before, because there were so many people, this short boy was completely drowned in the crowd, and I didn't even realize it. Could it be that this boy is a child prodigy? I couldn't help but be amazed. But soon the little boy's question surprised everyone.
"Big sister, what kind of season do you like? Your dress is so beautiful, don't you like summer? Can you take a picture with me? The little boy with the mobile phone asked stupidly, his tone was very strange, like a mentally handicapped child with a congenital intellectual disability.
Miyoko smiled softly and said to the little boy, "I can't tell you this, it's my secret." β
"That's it, sister, you're so bad~~" The little boy looked depressed, and then sat on the ground and wiped his nose, and even a pair of big eyes dimmed.
The little boy's puzzling question made everyone a little stunned, and then the eldest man in the crowd walked out, he took the little boy's hand, and said:
"Kids, come in, don't go out." As he spoke, the man took the little boy's hand and returned to the crowd, probably worried that the little boy, who seemed to be a little mentally handicapped, would be harmed.
Watching the little boy being pulled back into the crowd, Miyoko smiled and said:
"Your ability to accept all of this is very quick. By now, I think you've understood the rules of the game, but you're still skeptical about my ability and identity as a 'god', right? So, before the game starts, I'm going to show you what I'm capable of again! β
After finishing speaking, Miyoko slowly stood up from the throne, her proud long hair flowed like a waterfall, and Miyoko also stepped on the jade feet of **, from the throne to the round platform, at this time I saw countless balls similar to fruits hanging on the canopy, all of which were black in color, and at first glance they looked like grapes that had been magnified thousands of times.
With a flick of her fingers, Miyoko took off a "black grape" on the branch closest to her, and held it gently in her hand, and at this time, the vision happened.
"Don't underestimate this fruit, this fruit represents a universe."
As Miyoko's sweet voice sounded, the white world around me suddenly darkened, and I instinctively raised my head, but I was completely shocked by the scene above my head and was speechless. And the terrifying sounds around him intensified the terrifying atmosphere.
What is that?
I rubbed my eyes, and it took me half a beat to confirm the view above my head.
It was an upside-down metropolis. I can't say whether it's New York or Shanghai, but I can clearly see the city's transportation hubs, rivers, parks, city squares, and even the traffic coming and going.
Of course, soon, before I could react, the metropolis above my head quickly shrank away, and the terrain around the metropolis also appeared, and these terrain and landforms were also rapidly shrinking, and the metropolis gradually became the North American continent, and then the North American continent also shrank rapidly as if the camera was zooming out, becoming the surface of the earth, and then the earth also quickly moved away, becoming the solar system, the Milky Way, and the extragalactic galaxy. Until the picture overhead becomes a brilliant cosmic plane with countless galaxy clusters floating on it.
How many stars are there in this picture? I can't count it anymore because it's so large that I burn out the brain wiring if I count it a little.
And then, I saw Miyoko standing under the starry sky, slowly flattening the "fruit" in her hand, as if she was popping a balloon.
With Miyoko's actions, a frightened sight happened.
In the cosmic picture that was originally evenly distributed with galaxy clusters, there were actually five black strips, and those five black strips were completely the shape of a human hand at first glance!
And the most terrifying thing is that as Miyoko slowly squeezes the "fruit" in her hand, the countless galaxy clusters in the cosmic picture above her head also exploded as if they were squeezed by some mysterious force, bursting out with strong light that people couldn't look at directly, and then those strong lights were quickly swallowed up by the black finger-like area across the universe, turning into a black space with nothing.
I was deeply shocked by the sight of this situation, this is not a star-by-star destruction, this is a cluster of galaxies destroying the entire universe one galaxy after another!
Soon, the scene in the cosmic picture zoomed in again and returned to the earth, this time, dozens of iconic metropolises such as New York, London, and Beijing appeared on the screen at the same time, but what made me shudder was that from the direction of the horizon of these cities, a dazzling orange-red fire suddenly rose, and it was an endless sea of fire! In just an instant, all the cities were engulfed in an endless sea of fire!
The camera zoomed out again, this time, from an extraterrestrial perspective, and it was then that I realized that the endless sea of fire just now was actually the sun that was ejected when the sun exploded! In less than a few seconds, the Earth was completely engulfed by the exploding sun, becoming cosmic dust......
When I came back to my senses, I realized that I was already sitting on the ground, and my mind still had the terrifying scene when the earth was swallowed by the sea of fire just now, and I could even clearly remember the terrifying scene of tourists walking in the square in Shanghai evaporating in an instant, and those poor residents, who had not even had time to react, had already ushered in death......
"Okay, I guess now, people don't have any doubts about my abilities anymore, right?"
Miyoko's sweet voice sounded again, and I looked up stiffly, only to see this woman looking at me with a smile, and there was an indescribable mystery hidden in her bright dark eyes.
But what I captured more was madness and banter.
No one made a sound, and the interest was that the scene above the head that challenged people's visual limits made most people lose the ability to think.
"Okay, then, without further ado, our God game has officially begunβten, nine, eight, seven......" I saw that this woman's eyes flashed with extreme excitement, like a monkey who had inadvertently broken into the Dragon Palace. As she began to count down, I suddenly felt as if my feet were stuck in a quagmire, and when I looked down, I realized that two bottomless whirlpools had appeared where my feet were standing, and my whole body was sinking downβand everyone else was in the same condition as me.
Several of the women present finally began to scream and cry, and they fought hard, trying to climb out of the whirlpool, but the more they struggled, the stronger the whirlpool pulled at them.
"Don't!"
"I don't want it!"
"Let me go back! I'm going back! β
My brain was buzzing with the incessant screams, and I looked up to see Miyoko's mysterious smile sitting cross-legged on the throne with one hand on her cheeks. It's like a casual face watching a show on Broadway.
"Three, two...... One! β
Just as my body was halfway down, I heard a man's voice:
"Listen, everyone, no matter what happens to us in the future, whether we really want to fight each other and become enemies, but our real enemy is always only one, and that is Miyoko, please keep this in mind, don't forget this! Don't forget! β
I turned my head to capture the source of the sound, but before I could lock on to my target, it was like a movie theater with the lights suddenly going out before it started, and the whole world was instantly darkened.
