Welcome to Rewind World Game-Chapter 852 - 849: "Will Su Ming’an Become Yasa Acto?

In another room, the people monitoring the conference showed tense expressions.

"What is Mizushima Kawa Sora going to say? Why does she want to confront Su Ming’an so directly in this situation?" someone said.

"Every word she says now will be overly interpreted by countless people, extending into multiple versions, leading to more chaos later."

"Should we cut the live broadcast before she speaks?" Xia Zhuo from the Social Development Research Institute suggested.

In this room, Chief of Staff Aishikel, Deputy Chief of Staff Suzuki Kentaro, Vice President Andrew, Glen Faction Dempsey, Forum Management Hubert, Yangtze System Deng Lin, Qin Xiaohui. Secretaries, logistics, business personnel, public opinion experts, high-level management personnel, all present.

This "Full Perfect Clearer Conference" clearly cannot be completely free. If religious fanatics or those who thrive on chaos speak untimely words in front of the world, the United Group must find a way to rectify it immediately.

Staff stared at the monitoring screen, already prepared to quickly guide public opinion.

"Let her speak." A dignified voice came from the control room: "We can’t silence everyone. Now, perfect clearers are more important than us. All we can do is respect their actions and then rectify their mistakes."

Aishikel’s heart tightened, but he did not refute. He knew well the changes of the current era; no matter how well the United Group can guide public opinion, no matter how many people they have, they ultimately cannot replace the role of full perfect clearers.

For more than four months, they worked hard to establish internal rules, set up the Peace Dove Mutual Aid Hospital, researched the fusion and innovation of human technology and world game technology, formed mutual aid teams, organized armies to maintain order, organized human self-rescue conferences, regularly released free strategies... All these measures essentially aimed to maintain the internal stability of humanity but could not resist external enemies. The significance of the United Group in uniting humanity is great, but they did not contribute to the Points progress bar.

Without the United Group, the Main God World would not be as stable as it is now. There would only be countless fanatics, suicide attackers, and mental patients rampaging in the streets, spreading panic to every corner. The United Group has a function, a large one.

But the real wartime results can only be fought for by adventurer players. The heavy responsibility of human destiny is clearly on the shoulders of ’Full Perfect Clearers,’ and only they can wish for ’driving away high-dimensional beings.’

As a ’Full Perfect Clearer,’ Mizushima Kawa Sora’s actions can no longer be controlled. Whether it’s individual force or her disruptive power to order, she has exceeded control.

"Controlling public opinion to prevent internal human chaos and ensuring people do not target ’Full Perfect Clearers’ is what we can currently do," Suzuki Kentaro said. "Suppress public jealousy and dissatisfaction, encourage admiration and respect among the masses, implement the Hero Plan, emphasize human honor, monitor sensitive words, guide self-media, forum media, and forum players’ actions—this is our most important work."

People expressed agreement.

In the conference room, Mizushima Kawa Sora had already stood up, her gaze like ice crystals directly piercing Su Ming’an.

Su Ming’an calmly met her gaze, waiting for her words.

Under the glaring incandescent lights, her complexion was as pale as someone who had just escaped from a hospital madman.

"Su Ming’an." Mizushima Kawa Sora spoke: "I want to say, my wish is—I want to obtain the authority to resurrect others without cost."

People’s expressions froze.

They hadn’t expected that the large formation Mizushima Kawa Sora created was just to state her own wish.

"So, no matter what your wish is." Mizushima Kawa Sora’s gaze was like an edge thorn: "I will not conflict with you, remember that."

Her tone was sharp and harsh, yet what she said allowed people to relax.

"Really?" Su Ming’an leaned forward: "Is this really your wish? Miss Mizushima?"

"Of course." Mizushima Kawa Sora replied categorically.

"But what if it can’t be ’without cost’? If the authority to resurrect others comes with various kinds of costs, will you still firmly make this wish?" Su Ming’an said: "We discussed earlier that the power of a wish cannot exceed a certain scope. If one could indefinitely resurrect others, this authority would be too potent, risking impossibility."

Thirty-four people in the conference room, over a hundred next door monitoring, and billions of citizens in the live broadcast room... were all watching their interaction.

Evidently, Su Ming’an sitting in his chair was looking up at Mizushima Kawa Sora, yet when their eyes met, it seemed like he was looking down on her.

Mizushima Kawa Sora’s fingers trembled slightly, she said coldly: "I believe the force of a wish won’t be so trivial as ’resurrecting one person would cost my life.’ If it’s a cost I can afford, I certainly won’t hesitate. So, I won’t change my wish."

Su Ming’an said: "You indeed might possibly win to the end. If this is truly your wish, you won’t conflict with anyone else’s wish."

"But." His words had a twist: "Wishing is an ultimate ’prisoner’s dilemma’—you must have realized this to proactively reveal your wish to me."

[Prisoner’s Dilemma].

Upon hearing this term, everyone present could understand what it means.

—It is a representative example of a non-zero-sum game in game theory, reflecting that "the best personal choice is not the best choice for the group."

Two criminals are about to be imprisoned, unable to communicate with each other. If both criminals do not inform against each other, each will only serve a year. If one informs and the other remains silent, the informant is immediately released, and the silent one serves ten years. If both inform against each other, both are sentenced to eight years. As criminals cannot trust each other, they tend to inform against each other rather than remain silent together, leading to the worst outcome.

This explains why cooperation is difficult even when it’s beneficial for both parties.

You don’t know what wish others will make, nor what you can get from the wish.

You don’t know if you lean towards active wishes, whether others’ passive wishes will leave you with nothing.

You don’t know whether your contribution and sacrifice in your wish are just stepping stones to achieve someone else’s bigger wish. freewёbnoνel-com

[I want a resurrection authority]—Mizushima Kawa Sora’s wish.

[I want Mizushima Kawa Sora to die]—a madman’s wish.

This is an extreme example. Suppose there’s a Wishmaker who wishes for Mizushima Kawa Sora to die. Then, even if Mizushima Kawa Sora gains resurrection authority, it no longer holds meaning. At the moment the wish takes effect, she will die, her resurrection authority can only be based on her being alive, once she dies, her wish is meaningless.

Second Layer. Suppose Su Ming’an completely believes Mizushima Kawa Sora’s words, believing she will wish "I want a resurrection authority." But Mizushima Kawa Sora reneges at the last moment, it might lead to this situation:

[I want to redeem Zhai Xing]—Su Ming’an’s wish.

[I no longer want resurrection authority, that was to deceive Su Ming’an, I want to wish to dominate Zhai Xing]—Mizushima Kawa Sora’s wish.

This will lead to Zhai Xing being redeemed and immediately falling into Mizushima Kawa Sora’s hands. She becomes the planet’s ruler, controlling all forces and power, and immediately begins to retaliate against all those she hates, even killing Su Ming’an.

Because "redeeming Zhai Xing" is a wish that Su Ming’an will definitely make, as long as Mizushima Kawa Sora makes the wish to "dominate Zhai Xing" when Su Ming’an redeems it, she can take over — and become the ruler of Zhai Xing once it’s redeemed.

Since she would be the ruler of Zhai Xing, Su Ming’an, who hasn’t wished for something like "I want to ascend dimensions" or "I want to become a high-dimensional being," could never escape her pursuit.

This way, the only one who would be harmed is Su Ming’an, leading to a prisoner’s dilemma outcome of "one party released, the other sentenced to ten years."

The Third Layer. Adding another layer of logic, if Su Ming’an does not make the wish to "redeem Zhai Xing," but Mizushima Kawa Sora believes he will and wishes to "dominate Zhai Xing," it would result in this situation:

[I don’t want to redeem Zhai Xing anymore; that was to trick Mizushima Kawa Sora. Now I wish to ascend dimensions]— Su Ming’an’s wish.

[I want to dominate Zhai Xing]— Mizushima Kawa Sora’s wish.

This would lead to Mizushima Kawa Sora becoming the owner of Zhai Xing, but since Zhai Xing isn’t redeemed, she would be killed by the ensuing high-dimensional beings. Su Ming’an, also considering Mizushima Kawa Sora, wouldn’t make his most wanted wish of "redeeming Zhai Xing"; he chose to ascend dimensions to prevent being killed by Zhai Xing’s ruler, Mizushima Kawa Sora. This resulted in the worst prisoner’s dilemma outcome of "each receiving an eight-year sentence."

Of course, in reality, Su Ming’an wouldn’t make such a wish; with the world’s destiny at stake, he won’t consider his own life or death. But few know this.

This is a "trial and balance."

It’s because of such complex considerations that the "Full Perfect Clearer Meeting" was held. When the time truly comes, there might be a third wishmaker, or a fourth wishmaker; the negotiation and game would become more chaotic. Layer upon layer of logic, endless.

Su Ming’an sat up straight, locking eyes with Mizushima Kawa Sora’s sharp gaze.

His eyes burned like flames; the expectations and dreams he once had for "Ms. Lighthouse" were gone.

"Ms. Mizushima Kawa, if I really told you my wish, would you believe me?" Su Ming’an said, "Is your wish truly the wish you will make? If either of us lied and changed our wish temporarily, the outcome could lead us into an abyss. We can’t restrain ourselves from doubting each other. Even you clearly realize this."

— Chain of suspicion.

Wishing is an uncontrollable chain of suspicion.

When one person starts doubting, this chain will spread endlessly, until everyone is suspicious of each other.

"..." Mizushima Kawa Sora stared at Su Ming’an.

Her chest heaved heavily, clearly indicating her unstable emotions. Of course, she thought through these matters; everyone present understood these principles.

They just had never openly talked about it.

As soon as one wishmaker betrays the previously agreed wishes, the rest will suffer devastating blows based on game theory. Once these thoughts arise, the others also start doubting each other, pondering whether to change their wishes. This leads to an infinite transmission of the suspicion chain.

"Su Ming’an..." Bei Wang finally woke up, glanced at the solemn atmosphere in the conference room, and instantly grasped the current situation.

Mei Yani tightly pressed her lips together, not daring to intervene in this heavy atmosphere.

In the live broadcast room, the barrage was in extreme chaos:

[Mizushima Kawa Sora is truly mad, look at her eyes, like a madman!!]

[The crazier one is, the clearer one’s mind. Maybe she has already seen through the world’s truth, clearer than any of us. There’s a fine line between a madman and a genius; I believe Mizushima Kawa Sora is a genius.]

[Is there really no room for reconciliation in this conflict?]

[I understand now; it’s a perfect suspicion chain—if I temporarily change my wish, you will suffer a devastating blow. If you do, then I will. If both of us do, we’re both done. Only if neither changes their wish do we get the best outcome. But we can’t control our doubting minds; I can’t entrust my life and everything to the other person’s mercy and compassion.]

[Especially not between Mizushima Kawa Sora and Su Ming’an. There’s likely a vendetta of killing a sister between them. How could Mizushima Kawa Sora not seek revenge?]

[There’s simply no way to reconcile, no middleman can exist. It’s truly a perfect suspicion chain, truly mad, truly cruel.]

[Unless one party dies before wishing leaves only the most reliable wishmaker.]

[Shh, shh, how can you say that? Every Full Perfect Clearer is a hero; why should they die?]

[Just talking... we’re all insignificant ants. The decision to kill a companion rests with the Full Perfect Clearers themselves. But then the Points progress bar might be insufficient again.]

[Can we really survive?]

[Does pinning humanity’s fate on one person make this path any easier?]

[Will Su Ming’an become Yasa Acto?]

[Will history repeat itself?]

[I don’t believe this is a "Reincarnation."]

...

Mizushima Kawa Sora’s breathing was heavy; she clutched the silver necklace at her chest.

Unwillingness, helplessness, struggle, and anger overlapped on her face; this difficult silence lasted for a full thirty seconds. Everyone quietly watched the scene.

Until thirty seconds later, she opened her lips with difficulty: "...I understand, Su Ming’an."

...What did she understand?

No one could understand this sentence.

After saying this, she gave Su Ming’an a deep look, with indescribable, complex emotions in her eyes, then turned to leave.

The heavy sound of the door closing was heard, and the room fell silent.
