Chapter 296: Simulation, Mess It Up!

“How will he approach this situation?

“Will he think of opposing it? But if he could oppose it, he would have done so from the beginning and wouldn’t have waited until now, right?”

“Or will he choose to continue hiding? But even if I can avoid worrying about him being discovered, will he be confident in my ability to hide myself as well?”

Su Mo sat on the floor, his brain working rapidly to analyze all the possible situations he would encounter when he met the God of the Ocean who was being hunted down by the humans, foreign races and even the game.

Situation A:

Both of them met each other. As the God of Cookery and the God of the Ocean were in the same boat, they trusted in each other and wanted to bring an end to the game’s dictatorship.

For this to happen, the God of the Ocean had to be somewhat “simple-minded”, who would not doubt the secrets that Su Mo kept hidden. Then both of them could join forces and strive to live an enriched life.

Situation B:

Both of them met each other. The God of the Ocean was way stronger than he was and, after the God of the Ocean discovered that Su Mo was a God, but a weak one, he became murderous and greedy, and wanted to swallow him up. However, he never expected Su Mo to have the system and various countermeasures prepared and, by the skin of his teeth, Su Mo killed the God of the Ocean instead.

Situation C:

Both of them met each other. The God of Ocean had become weak after sleeping for such a long time, but was a tricky character as he had lived for a long time. Due to their restraint and caution toward each other, both of them became brothers on the surface, but the God of Ocean always wanted to kill him secretly and to get rid of him, who knew the truth. Eventually, both of them would still have to fight with one another.

Situation D:

He thought of more than ten different scenarios where he would definitely not strike first, and the situations that might take place when he was facing the God of the Ocean.

Starting from the first scenario, to the last one, Su Mo made a statistical analysis:

The probability of both of them fighting was 92%.

The probability of both of them cooperating was 3%.

The probability of both of them fighting the moment they met, and the God of Ocean getting killed was 2%.

If they fought with each other, when the God of Ocean chose to reveal himself to the game as he was no match for Su Mo, the probability of both of them dying together was 2%.

The probability of Su Mo not being able to beat him, even with the help of the system, and being killed by the God of Ocean was 1%.

Five probable outcomes which included every possibility, that added up to a total of 100%.

Expressions, languages, and actions could deceive people.

Promises, oaths, and guarantees could be made null and void.

However, data could not!

Even if Su Mo had no idea about the personality and manner in which the God of the Ocean handled his affairs, knowing statistical analysis and probability theory could help Su Mo to make a full analysis of the situation that he was about to face in the future.

“There’s a 3% probability that we’ll work together, while there’s a 97% probability that we’ll end up fighting.”

“Sigh, it looks like the game’s decision to be a busybody isn’t stupid one. It’s a ploy.”

“In this case, I don’t even need to make a choice. It has already been decided for me.”

He stood up, feeling the power that the strong, perfect new body and the magical food authority had brought upon him.

This time, Su Mo made another analysis again and removed the prerequisite of him not picking a fight first.

Su Mo analyzed every possibility statistically, honestly and wholeheartedly, and thought about how he would go about doing it.

This time, the variable scenarios that he had come up with finally increased.

There were twelve possibilities.

However, according to this data, regardless of the success rate of these scenarios, there was one data point that appeared to be extremely obtrusive, achieving a probability percentage of a hundred percent.

“It looks like, instead of figuring out whether the God of Ocean will strike the first blow, I should be thinking more about myself!”

He paused for a long time as he kneaded the paper where it was written that there was a 100% probability of them ending up fighting. He felt the power that was given by the authority once again. As Su Mo focused, the surrounding air seemed to blur instantly.

The perfect and strong body with the name “Yang Jian” disappeared on the spot, and the weak “Su Mo” who had been seriously injured not long ago reappeared.

A true hermit lived in seclusion on a crowded street.

Su Mo tried to open the game panel, and smiled after he discovered that every function was still usable and that there was nothing wrong with it.

Unlike the God of the Ocean, whose approximate location had been found, the game would be racking its brains not knowing that the Yang Jian, who had just become the God of Cookery, was standing right under its nose.

Moreover, with the system’s assistance, Su Mo was confident that, even if the second identity’s access rights were banned, there was a good chance that he could cover it up by paying some survival points.

“Interesting. So this is how it feels like to be an insider.”

“But it’s alright, the purpose of making this trip was to take a look in passing, and see if I had the opportunity to kill the God of the Ocean.”

“What needs to be done now is not to stand behind and wait to take advantage of the situation, but to take the initiative to jump into the trap and be the first among all the competitors.”

“And, since everyone refuses to make the first move, wanting to be the mantis stalking the cicada, then I’ll let all of everyone’s wishes come true by diving in headfirst.”

“Regardless of whatever sh*t that ocean disaster throws at us, let’s get everyone to look for the God of Ocean starting tomorrow!”

After thinking things through clearly, Su Mo made a bold decision in his mind that any creature who located the God of the Ocean before he did would have to die.

If the situation was stable, then these people would probably locate the exact location of the God of Ocean with the clues given by the game.

However, if everything was chaotic, then everyone had to rely on their own capabilities to locate the God of the Ocean.

Speaking about this…

Su Mo focused his thoughts and opened the friends list panel, sending Chen Shen a message that it was okay to open the door again. In the meantime, Su Mo was making preparations before he took any action; he paced back and forth examining the attributes of the remaining items in the room.

The remaining items were two rare-quality items, which were a lamp and a foldable recliner chair respectively.

Both items were miscellaneous items, and could not be compared to actual productivity tools. However, as rare-quality items, their attributes were pretty remarkable.

The former item could absorb any light, from firelight to sunlight, up to a maximum capacity of one hundred and fifty thousand lumens, and could provide lighting for up to three hours.

If this item was installed on the ship while sailing the seas, regardless of whether it was used to provide illumination during warfare at sea, or used as a temporary lighthouse during emergencies, it was pretty useful.

This item seemed to be useful at first glance, but had its own usage restrictions and limitations.

Like the traditional large lamps, this rare-quality lamp had a terrible limitation…

It was a fixed installation.

This lamp that could serve as a lighthouse had to be fixed in position to be used and, once it was fixed in place, 1000 disaster points had to be spent to move it again.

It was this limitation that held the lamp back from being able to serve as a unique portable “tool”, reducing its value and usage.

As for the foldable reclining chair, it was even more impractical.

After unfolding it, once someone laid down on the chair, the recliner chair would enter into its automatic adjustment mode.

In this mode, the temperature, humidity, light intensity, UV intensity, and other external factors within two meters of the chair would be adjusted, transforming that area into the most conducive environment for one to rest in.

Within this environment, the body of the person resting would gain a certain amount of increased physical recovery speed.

However, in Su Mo’s opinion, this buff deserved to be called as:

Better than nothing!

“I’ve got the Mountain and Sea Painting Scroll for my body recovery, and I’ve got the psychic energy water for my mental recovery. Perhaps I can try to upgrade this recliner chair if I have extra points to do so.”

“I’ll take all of them. No one in the village is going to use them anyway!”

To take the items that had been sealed away would have been a troublesome undertaking for the others, but for Su Mo, he only had to inform Chen Shen and have him update the inventory when he went back.

He placed both rare items into his storage space. As for the remaining excellent-quality items, Su Mo was not interested in them.

At this point, excellent-quality items were no longer tempting to him.

As long as it was not a useful or functional item, even if the item was of excellent-quality, its effects and attributes were insufficient to catch Su Mo’s eye.

He roughly glanced past them as he saw Chen Shen, who had an anxious expression on his face, climbing down the stairs. Su Mo put down the things that he was holding and stepped forward to welcome him.

“Brother Su, are you alright, the…”

“I’m fine. I’m taking the black pot, recliner chair, and the lamp. Record it down after this.”

Su Mo waved his arms and looked at Chen Shen, who seemed to have something to say. Su Mo smiled, and patted the shoulder of this tanned-skin, innocent-looking fellow, and did not explain anything.

The matter of the wasteland authority was truly the biggest secret of this world.

In Su Mo’s heart, if the system was ranked number one, then the wasteland authority would definitely be ranked as number two.

Possessing authority meant becoming a major shareholder of this world.

There was no need for him to tell anyone about it. Under Su Mo’s protection, all the humans would rebuild their homes in this wasteland peacefully.

However, if they encountered any mistakes in the process.

Su Mo would still have a chance to survive under the protection of the mysterious system, but the others, including all the foreign creatures…

There was no chance for them to survive!

Leaving this secret unsaid, after he recalled that he was about to do something crazy, Su Mo laughed again and said,

“Chen Shen, look at these three doors. What do they represent?”

“Ah?”

He had been mentally prepared for Su Mo not going to explain himself, so once he was questioned by Su Mo, Chen Shen was startled, and then leaned his head closer.

“What does the door… represent?”

“Safety?” Once he said that, he suddenly thought that Su Mo would not have asked a question with such a simple answer, so he changed his answer again.

“It represents a secret!”

“No? It represents the path to another floor perhaps?”

“…”

He gave four to five answers at once, but after he noticed that there were no changes in Su Mo’s smiling expression, Chen Shen’s face turned bitter.

“Brother Su, what does it actually represent? Aren’t they just three doors, or could they somehow be weapons?”

“Hahaha, relax. Think about it again. What if I close all these doors? This time let us switch positions, I’ll be on top, and you down below!”

As they continued their deep and meaningful dialogue, Su Mo watched Chen Shen’s pondering expression take an unexpected turn…

“I’m down below?”

“Brother Su is on top?”

“Brother Su is on top of me (;д;)?”

Once Su Mo noticed Chen Shen’s expression and tone was getting strange, he realized the problem in his words.

However, it was not a big deal. After he repeated the words a few more times, and connected the words with what had happened just now, Chen Shen’s eyes suddenly brightened up.

“I know, the three doors are barriers.”

“The people on top cannot see or hear and are unaware of what actually happened down there.”

“The same goes to the people down there!”

“The door cuts off the transmission of information, so if the people on top want to find out about the information down there, they have to open the door to take a look, while the people down there…”

Chen Shen lifted his head and looked at the three heavy iron gates, and then shook his head.

“Then let me ask you something else. What if someone wants to tear down all the three doors?”

“What will happen after all three doors are removed?”

Su Mo shook his head as he stared at the three heavy iron gates. Without giving Chen Shen the time to answer, he climbed up first.

Thud…

Thud…

The soles of the combat uniform’s boots were thick and hard, which made his steps echo as he stepped on the rail.

A little while after Su Mo climbed up and walked out, there were no longer any click-clacking echoes in the storage room.

However, this time the door was not closed and the lights in the cave could still be seen through the passageway.

While it lit up the darkness below, it also indicated the way up at the same time.

Surprisingly, even though Su Mo had already walked out of the cave and returned to the big platform, Chen Shen, who was waiting down below, stood still on the stop, as if he was bewitched. His eyes were full of astonishment!
