God's Imitator-Chapter 480: Exit Area (Extra)

He Xiaojun instinctively clenched his fists. Although this time’s instant death penalty had nothing to do with him, he still felt extremely suffocated and oppressed in such an atmosphere.

He saw "↑Lovers" and "↓The Hanged Man" fall down, along with 4 other players.

He Xiaojun had previously encountered "↑Lovers." Although the olive branch they extended carried malice and deceit, seeing "↑Lovers" die still left He Xiaojun with an inexplicable sense of melancholy.

The fate of players in the Walkway is unpredictable.

The strong might also exit before the weak due to a fatal oversight.

The other players didn’t react — they were long accustomed to such scenes: the game results announced, and someone or several people silently collapsing to the ground.

Perhaps next time, it would be them lying on the ground, but what of it?

[One player from Community 15 will suffer an instant death penalty in the game. Please complete the vote via ’verbal confirmation’.]

He Xiaojun heard some players seem to speak, but since their voices weren’t loud, they turned into indistinct noise by the time they reached his ears.

Yet this noise spread like a spell throughout the mystically colored room.

"Wang Weidong."

These three words eventually drowned out all other possibilities.

He Xiaojun saw "↑Demon" leaning against his own door, ready to meet his fate.

In the final moment, Wang Weidong seemed a bit composed.

"Everyone, I’ll go ahead first.

"I hope you take your time in coming to find me."

Then, his head silently tilted to one side.

No one used an Immunity Coupon to avoid death.

Community 4 didn’t activate the Immunity Coupon, and Community 15’s Immunity Coupon hadn’t yet recovered.

In terms of timing, Community 17 used their last Immunity Coupon during the "Shelter Game", and after that, Community 15 unlocked their Immunity Coupon and used it during a Judgment-type game.

Before the "Tarot Game" began, Community 17 had just obtained the next Immunity Coupon by reducing the cooldown time.

If later than Community 17, there certainly was no Immunity Coupon available for use in this game.

If Wang Weidong had completely controlled the use of the Immunity Coupon and forcibly retained it during its last use, his ending in this game might have been different.

But, there is no such thing as "if".

The punishment for the Main Community by the game rules has ended, but it doesn’t mean no other players will die. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Because whether all players in the Edge Community die instantly or not depends on the situation of players leaving the Exit Area.

[The Exit Area is now open.]

[Players are free to choose the Exit Area.]

[In 10 minutes, players will be arranged to leave in four rounds according to "Total Wealth from high to low" within the Exit Area, with a 5-minute interval between each round.]

After the announcement on the big screen ended, the players immediately sprang into action, quickly moving toward the Exit Area and standing still.

However, they soon realized there was no need to rush.

Because the Exit Area designated in the game is vast, even if all players crammed into one Exit Area, it would still accommodate them.

The specific area where players exit doesn’t depend on the speed of action.

Quickly, some players voluntarily changed their Exit Area.

The smallest number of players was left in Zone A, while the largest gathering was in Zone D.

He Xiaojun glanced over the masks of players remaining in Zone A.

"↑Wheel of Fate", "↓Hermit", "↑Fool", "↑Star", "↑Empress", "↑Emperor", "↓Emperor".

These few gathered relatively early in Zone A, totaling 7 players.

Although most players couldn’t match these masks to specific names, judging from the performance of these masks in the game, they still evoked a strong sense of oppression.

Undoubtedly, this must be the strongest Community 17 in this game.

Each Main Community has 6 players participating, but 7 players had decisively stepped inside, and none of the others showed obvious resistance.

This means one of the players had already gained acceptance into this community within the game.

During the subsequent player movement, many originally standing in Zone A left voluntarily and chose other Exit Areas.

But there were also three players cautiously staying at the outer edge of Zone A.

This reveals two differing attitudes among Edge Community players.

Those who exited didn’t want to bother trying.

Because Community 17 is brimming with strong players, as long as they want to bring everyone back, they’re sure to make appropriate arrangements, hence even if there are players among these 7 with less Wealth Coupons, they should still be slightly higher than average players.

Of course, if it’s a case like He Xiaojun’s, with absolute advantage in Wealth Coupons, one might choose to force their way in.

But the problem is that pushing out an original player of Community 17 is inherently a hostile act, and imagining being disliked or repelled by the entire Community 17 after joining is frightening.

The strong players of Community 17, although showing kindness in some games, don’t mean they’ll tolerate everything.

So many players gave up when the going got tough.

Yet some players, for various reasons, still tried to stay and test their luck.

Because being readily accepted by Community 17 is akin to hitting the jackpot — even players with a slight gambling streak find it hard to resist this temptation.

In Zone B, there are "↑Magician" and "↓Star", but obviously more players congregated here than in Zone A.

The players leading Zone C are "↑Priestess" and "↓Wheel of Fate", with even more players congregated here than in Zone B.

This is evidently Community 15, as the death of "↑Demon" led many players to instinctively believe there would be more vacancies and more exiting players from Community 15.

According to the game rules, the number of players who can exit each Zone is different.

If Community A stands in Zone A, and there are currently 10 players in Community A, then 8 players can exit Zone A. This includes the 6 players participating in the game and 2 original vacancies.

And if Community B stands in Zone B, currently having only 6 players and all participating in the game, then Zone B can allow 12 players to exit.

Edge Community players would also use this rule to make a rough estimate of which Zone has a higher exit probability.

It is for this reason that Zone D had the most players, with at least half of the remaining players standing there.

Because originally as a Main Community, all of Community 4 suffered instant death, meaning there were at least 6 vacancies within the community.

The probability of exiting through this area is much higher than in other areas.
