Deduction, Let the Chaos Begin!
What is she thinking?
"Would you even consider resisting? But if you could resist, you would have done so from the very beginning. Why would you wait until now?"
"Would he choose to continue running? But if I can assure him that he won't be discovered while he's hiding, would he be assure him that I can hide?"
Sitting on the ground, Su Mo's mind raced as he analyzed all the possible scenarios that might occur after the two met, considering that this Ocean God was something that all of humanity, all wasteland creatures, and even the game itself wanted to capture.
Scenario A:
When the two meet, the Food God of Food and the Ocean God, who are from the same fighting class, trust each other and both want to overthrow the game's dictatorship.
Furthermore, this Ocean God must be a relatively "simple" person who has no doubts about the secrets he possesses. The two join forces and from then on live a fulfilling and challenging life.
Scenario B:
When the two met, the Ocean God's strength far surpassed his own. Moreover, the Ocean God, knowing that he was also a Food God, but a weak one at that, became murderous and greedy. He tried to silence him, but he didn't expect that he had a system and countermeasures. In the end, at the critical moment, he killed the Ocean God.
Scenario C:
When the two meet: the Ocean God, having slumbered for so long, is actually quite weak, but possesses an extremely deep and cunning mind. Because of mutual restraint, they become superficial brothers, but secretly the Ocean God has always wanted to eliminate him, to remove this potential threat who knows the truth. In the end, a battle between the two is inevitable.
Scenario D:
He considered dozens of possible scenarios when facing the Ocean God, assuming he would never make the first move.
Starting with the first conjecture and moving to the last, Su Mo made a statistic: the probability of the two eventually fighting is 92%; the probability of them cooperating is 3%; the probability of them fighting as soon as they meet and the Ocean God being defeated is 2%; the probability of them fighting and the Ocean God choosing to self-destruct to the game when he is no match for him is 2%; the probability of them dying together is 1%; and the probability of him being Ocean God even with the system is 1%. These five probability events encompass all possibilities, totaling 100%.
Facial expressions, language, and actions can be deceiving.
Promises, vows, and guarantees can be voided.
But data doesn't! Even without knowing the Ocean God's personality and way of doing things, a little bit of statistical probability can completely analyze the situation that Su Mo is about to face.
There's a 3% chance we'll cooperate, and a 97% chance we'll compete to see who's better.
"Sigh, it seems the game's management isn't stupid after all; this move is practically a calculated scheme."
"In this situation, they've already made the choice for me without even meeting me."
He stood up, feeling the incredibly strong and perfect new body, and the immense power brought by the magical Food Authority.
This time, Su Mo made a new prediction and removed the major premise that he would not take action.
Adhering to complete honesty, Su Mo was completely unpretentious in his statistical analysis of events, directly considering all possibilities and taking his own actions into account.
This time, the number of variables in the statistics has finally increased.
There are twelve possibilities.
However, among these data, regardless of the success rate of various events, one statistic stands out as extremely high: it reached 100%.
"It seems that instead of worrying about whether Ocean God will make a move, I should be thinking about myself!"
After a while, he casually crumpled up the paper that showed a 100% probability of someone taking action. After feeling the power of his authority once again, Su Mo's surrounding space blurred instantly with a thought.
The perfectly strong body named "Yang Jian" disappeared from its original spot, and "Su Mo," who had just suffered a severe injury and was extremely weak, reappeared.
The truly wise hide in the city, the lesser wise hide in the forest.
After trying to open the Game Panel and finding that all the functions were working and there were no problems, Su Mo smiled.
Unlike the Ocean God whose approximate location has already been tracked down, the game probably has no idea that Yang Jian, who has just become the "God of Food God," is standing right under its nose.
Furthermore, with the system's assistance, Su Mo was confident that even if he was caught using his second identity's access, he would have a high chance of getting away with it by paying Survival Points.
"Interesting, so this is what it feels like to be a mole."
"But it's alright. My purpose in coming here was just to take a look around. I certainly won't let go of the opportunity to kill this Ocean God god."
"What I need to do now is not to continue to sit back and reap the benefits, but to actively jump into this vortex and get to the forefront of everyone."
"Besides, since everyone wants to avoid muddying the waters and wants to be the one to suffer the consequences, I won't let you have your way."
"What bullshit about an ocean invasion? Starting tomorrow, everyone should join the search for the Ocean God!"
Having figured out that as long as he wasn't the first to find the Ocean God, all creatures would die no matter who found it first, Su Mo's fighting style became completely unrestrained.
If the situation stabilizes, these people might actually be able to find the true location of the Ocean God by using the clues provided by the game.
But if the situation gets chaotic and everyone is searching, then finding it will really depend on skill.
As for this skill, with a thought, he opened the game's friends panel, and after giving Chen Shen to open the door, Su Mo took advantage of this time to rub his fists together and pace back and forth to check the attributes of the remaining items.
The remaining two rare items are an ever -Eternal Lamp and a foldable recliner.
In terms of appearance, both items are miscellaneous and cannot be compared to productivity tools, but as rare items, their attributes are quite remarkable.
The former can absorb any light, from small flames to large sunlight, and can store up to 150,000 lumens of light intensity for three hours of continuous illumination.
This thing is very useful when it's on a ship at sea, whether for nighttime naval warfare lighting or as a temporary lighthouse in an emergency.
At first glance, this thing seems quite useful, but that's without considering the limitations.
Like traditional large lighting fixtures, this rare lighting fixture also has a fatal limitation: its fixation.
This ever- Eternal Lamp, which can serve as a lighthouse, must be fixed in one location to be used. Once fixed, it will cost 1,000 Disaster Points to move it.
This restriction means that the Eternal Lamp cannot be carried around as an alternative "weapon," greatly reducing its value.
As for the latter, the Folding Recliner, it is even less practical.
Once unfolded, the recliner will automatically adjust itself as soon as a person lies on the stool.
In this mode, external factors such as temperature, humidity, light intensity, and ultraviolet radiation within two meters of the recliner are regulated to create an environment most suitable for rest.
In this environment, the resting person's physical recovery speed will receive a certain speed boost.
However, in Su Mo's view, this bonus was merely better than nothing!
"For physical recovery, I have the Shan Hai Painting; for mental recovery, I have Psionic Water. However, if I have the spare money to upgrade this recliner, I might try to enhance it."
"Take them all; no one in the village will need them if they stay!"
For someone else, taking away an item with a seal on it is troublesome, but for Su Mo, it's like returning to his own backyard. He can just report it to Chen Shen and do a count afterwards.
After storing the two rare items in his Storage Space, Su Mo lost interest in the remaining high-quality items.
Today, high-quality goods are no longer highly sought after.
Unless it's an item that's inherently very useful, even if you add excellent attributes or rank, it's unlikely to produce any good affixes.
After a quick glance, seeing Chen Shen, whose face was filled with anxiety, had already climbed down the stairs and put down what he was carrying, Su Mo strode forward to greet him.
"Big Brother Su, are you alright?"
"It's alright. I've taken the scapegoat, the recliner, and the Eternal Lamp. I'll make a record of it later."
Waving his hand, Su Mo smiled at Chen Shen's hesitant expression, stepped forward and patted the dark-skinned, simple-looking young man on the shoulder without offering any explanation.
The matter of the wasteland's permissions is the real secret of this world.
In Su Mo's mind, if the system could be ranked first, then permissions could definitely be ranked second.
Having gained control, they became major shareholders in this world.
Needless to say, under Su Mo's protection, all of humanity will be able to rebuild their homes safely in the wasteland.
But what if there is even the slightest mistake in this process?
Su Mo may have a sliver of hope under the protection of the mysterious system, but everyone else, including all the alien creatures, has absolutely no chance of survival!
But putting that secret aside, and thinking about the madness he was about to commit, Su Mo laughed again and said loudly:
"Chen Shen, look at these three doors. What do they represent?"
"Ah?"
Having already prepared himself for Su Mo not to explain, Chen Shen was startled when Su Mo pointed it out to him and leaned closer.
What does the door represent?
"Represents security?" Chen Shen had barely uttered the question when he realized that Su Mo would never ask such a simple question, so he immediately changed his mind. "It represents secrecy!"
"No, it represents the path to the next level?"
After giving four or five answers in a row, Chen Shen's face fell when he saw that Su Mo's smiling but silent expression did not change.
"Big Brother Su, what does this mean? These are just three doors, they can't be weapons, can they!"
"Haha, don't rush, think about it again. What if I close all these doors? This time, let's switch places. I'll be on top, and you'll be on the bottom!"
Continuing their witty banter, Su Mo became intrigued by Chen Shen's deep contemplation.
"Am I down there?"
"Big Brother Su is up there?"
"Big Brother Su is on top of me (; д;)?"
Seeing Chen Shen's increasingly strange expression and tone, Su Mo also realized the problem with his words.
However, it wasn't a big problem. After repeating it a few times, and connecting the events that had just happened to his thoughts, Chen Shen's eyes suddenly lit up.
"I understand, the three doors represent isolation."
"Those above can't see, hear, or understand what's happening down below."
"The same applies to those below!"
"The door isolates the transmission of information. Those above can simply open it to see what's happening below, but those below..."
Looking up at the three heavy iron doors, Chen Shen shook his head.
"Now let me tell you, what if someone wanted to tear down all three doors?"
What will happen after it's removed?
Staring at the three pitch-black iron gates, Su Mo shook his head and climbed up first without giving Chen Shen a chance to answer.
The thick, hard soles of the Combat Suit shoes echoed as they stepped on the railing.
Soon after, as Su Mo climbed to the top and went out, the echo of the treading sounds disappeared from the Storage Room.
But this time, the door was not closed, and the firelight inside the cave could still be transmitted through the entrance.
It illuminates the darkness below while also pointing out a path upwards.
Surprisingly, even though Su Mo had already left the cave and returned to the large platform...
Chen Shen, who was standing below the door, seemed to be bewitched, remaining frozen in place, his eyes instantly filled with disbelief!
I'm numb, just got home from get off work. I worked overtime and got really stressed, so the update is late. Sorry everyone.
