Game Theory Lesson
After six food items fell into the area where the "Shadow-Type Pseudo-Human" was located, the total amount of food that the "Shadow-Type Pseudo-Human" had to eat was already twice that of the other areas!
However, he no longer had the energy to draw obstacles to prevent the food from falling into his name.
Robin did not sit idly by and wait for her fate.
"Robin," sitting behind the city wall, had already received all the [Delicious Paper] from Lin Yu and began her own exchange!
With Lin Yu's support, she currently has a total of 60 [Delicious Paper], which she exchanged for 3 meals in 3 separate transactions!
Then...
"Robin" then placed these three portions of food into the names of Biten and White Driss respectively!
Her choice of "targets" was also clever—it was Qianhuan and Mosin-Nagant, who were also on the offensive.
Their teammates tried to stop them, but it was too late.
After all, the Robin's methods were truly too ingenious!
She drew a "blue hole" on the table, pushed the food through it, and then drew two "orange holes" in the air...
Then the food items flew into the names with incredible precision, in an incomprehensible parabolic arc.
It's faster than the slingshot Qianhuan used!
But even so...
Despite the increased number of [Delicious Paper] foods on the field, "Shadow-Type Pseudo-Human" still has the most!
On both Biten and White Driss's Venue, there was only food available for redeeming "40" portions of [Delicious Paper].
However, the "Shadow-Type Pseudo-Human" category had a share of nearly 90 cards.
Even though "Shadow-Type Pseudo-Human" was originally the fastest, it is now at the very bottom of the pack!
Of course, not many are lagging behind.
Mosin-Nagant and Qianhuan had both used up their support attempts, and the two of them tacitly returned the remaining [Delicious Paper] to their teammates.
Qianhuan only had one teammate, so he just passed the ball back to A'yu and that was it.
Mosin-Nagant then divided the remaining [Delicious Paper] into two equal parts and returned them to Li Hua and Carrot.
The situation calmed down for the time being.
For a time, no one dared to make any rash moves.
After all, Biten and White Driss's speeds were now equal again.
Biten will be slightly faster.
Therefore, the two opposing groups have reverted from Partner to competitors.
Li Hua and Carrot have a total of 46 sheets of Delicious Paper in their hands!
A'yu still has 52 cards left.
The difference of these six points could very well be the key to reversing Biten's slight lead in eating speed!
Most importantly...
Although "Shadow-Type Pseudo-Human" is currently at the bottom, Lin Yu still has the most [Delicious Paper] in his hand—he still has 58 sheets!
In other words...
The progress of the three contestants participating in the competitive eating contest in the "Ground of No Return" is inversely proportional to the number of [Delicious Paper] in the hands of each group of supporters.
In a sense, this is the most "balanced" episode yet.
Especially the two leading groups – their three members and two members are all sitting together.
It is even more difficult to guard against using one's name for "support" when one cannot "directly attack" the other party.
Therefore, no one dared to act rashly.
But it was Lin Yu broke the peace.
The remaining parts of the "Geometric Shapes city wall" in front of him suddenly collapsed with a roar.
Behind the wall, Lin Yu looked at the group of people who were wary of him and distrustful of each other, and sighed.
"What a boring scene. Everyone's being far too timid..."
As Lin Yu spoke, he took out the [Delicious Paper] from his hand.
"I'm teaching you how to use this, not so you can mentally calculate numbers!"
Upon hearing Lin Yu's words, A'yu retorted with dissatisfaction, "I didn't!"
Lin Yu looked at A'yu and pursed his lips. "I wasn't talking about your darling, I was talking about the rest—especially those two from Sea City, their brains must be about to explode from calculating, right?"
Lin Yu looked at "Gambler" Li Hua and "Magician" Qianhuan.
"The 'Gambler' doesn't gamble, and the 'Magician' doesn't provide a great show—it's so disappointing."
He said with a sigh.
"So what do you want to do?"
Li Hua looked at Lin Yu and said in a low voice.
"Of course, we're going to Xingyi big gamble and put on a spectacular show!"
Lin Yu smiled, clutched all the Delicious Paper in his hand, and held it high.
Then--
He threw it out forcefully!
"Whoosh--!"
"I choose to exchange all 58 [Delicious Paper] for food--"
"Let me take a gamble and see what good stuff it might contain!"
Pale yellow "Delicious Paper" fluttered and fell through the air like butterflies, countless pieces of paper dancing in the sky thousands of meters above.
Just as the paper was about to fall to the ground, it transformed into specks of light and soared into the sky, accompanied by Lin Yu's unrestrained words!
Grandpa Radish exclaimed in shock.
"This... this is way too risky!"
Everyone has noticed the Rule about [Delicious Paper] – the more sheets you get, the more likely you are to get a food item with a positive bonus effect!
Why is "Fluoxetine" being used to redeem all the [Delicious Paper]?!
This even wastes a [Support Opportunity]!
Mosin-Nagant and A'yu also looked somewhat puzzled.
Only Qianhuan was the first to react.
"This is probably... a deterrent."
Li Hua also stared intently at Lin Yu.
State your conditions!
In the sky, a fist-sized cupcake landed in front of Lin Yu and was held in his hand.
It's even a bit small compared to the previous food.
Seeing the two clever people who had finally realized what was happening, Lin Yu burst into laughter.
"Please just pretend our group doesn't exist—you can trip each other up a bit."
"Whoever tries to attack my side, I'll shove this [cupcake] into their side with all my might."
Indeed...
The food Item that can be exchanged with nearly 60 [Delicious Paper] likely have beneficial effects.
But after it actually appeared, no one dared to bet that it really existed!
What if it doesn't exist?
Or perhaps the beneficial effects aren't enough to offset the difference caused by the food?
The total amount of nearly 60 meals is definitely not something any group can afford right now.
Dividing 58 Delicious Paper into two equal portions might seem like a waste of [Support Opportunity], but actually...
Reducing their options would only put more pressure on Li Hua and Qianhuan.
"A simple introduction to Game Theory, my dear friends."
Lin Yu said with a smile.
At this moment, holding the "cupcake" in his hand, he has grasped the most important "truth" in the game.
That's the "ability to flip the table."
"Now, please fight and perform for each other as I intend."
"After all, more than winning this round, I want to see where your ceiling is!"
