Chapter 1549: Playing an Information Blind Box Game
Letting Anthony speak, the rhythm was immediately grasped by the old god-stick: "Respected god-stars, you also know that information has value. May I ask what price you intend to pay to exchange for news about the information storm?"
"What? News about the information storm also needs to be exchanged?" Tutubas said in shock.
"Tutubas God-Star, you are joking. You sent Starborn here to collect information; did you not have to pay? Money refers to equivalents," Anthony said.
Tutubas immediately regretted letting Anthony communicate: "I know what money is. Just now, your master didn't say he wanted to collect money."
"My master just stated the cause just now, without specific details. Speaking of specific details requires money. Do you only want to know the cause? Don't you want to know what content the information storm had?" Anthony asked, his tone full of temptation.
The wills of the other god-stars lingered on Anthony's body for a moment, then turned to Tutubas, and then returned to Anthony.
Tutubas pondered for a while and said: "I can give you star-flames."
"How much star-flame can you pay? The quantity is too small; my master doesn't look down on it," Anthony said.
Tutubas fell silent. Star-flame seems to be the hard currency in the void, which everyone needs, but in reality, it is not.
If the quantity is too small, the god-stars don't look down on it; if the quantity is too large, the cost of projecting it over is too high.
For god-stars further away, projecting one equivalent of star-flame over might require consuming ten equivalents of star-flame, which is not worth the loss.
The habit of exchanging news for star-flames formed here purely because there is no better equivalent than this, and everyone needs star-flame, so circulating it is enough for the consumption of these Starborn.
But now that the main stars have arrived in person, how could they look down on those few scraps of star-flame?
"What do you need?" After a long while, Tutubas asked.
"Information, some valuable information," Anthony said.
After arriving in this world, Anthony had a strong feeling that matter was no longer important, and power was not important either. The most important thing was intelligence, was news.
Matter is not important. Ang, who possesses increments, can materialize any matter, whether it is equipment, weapons, materials, bodies, or even planes; Ang can materialize them.
Power is also not particularly important. If you can't beat them, you can run. If you can't run, there are avatars. Even if they are all annihilated now, it is just retreating to another layered avatar.
Even if Ang's two layered avatars are both blasted, he can still retreat to the anchor point, retreat to the Boundless Land, and retreat to Ang's main body.
Basically, Ang can already be regarded as an eternal existence in the void. As long as he doesn't enter some closed space and get trapped in a consciousness cage, basically nothing can hurt him.
Even a consciousness cage might not necessarily hurt Ang, but this cannot be verified; it is just Anthony's faint premonition.
Matter and power are not the most important. The most important thing is information. Only information is worth exchanging for other information.
"What information do you need? How do I know what information you need? I don't necessarily have the information you need. How to exchange?" Tutubas said.
Anthony seemed to be waiting for this sentence. He smiled and said: "We can play a news blind box game. The seven of us—you six and me—each put one piece of information we consider valuable into the blind box. After completion, we open it together and view it together. If all seven pieces of information are valuable, we proceed to the next round."
"If one or more of them are garbage news without value, we vote together to drive him away and not let him participate in the next round. You don't want someone to use garbage news to trick you out of your valuable news, right? You will vote to kick out the valueless news, right?"
"If two or more pieces of information are repeated, the person who repeated it needs to provide two pieces of information in the next round. So you need to provide some information that only you know, rather than expired goods that the whole void knows. Are you willing to play such a news blind box?" Anthony asked.
Before the god-stars could answer, Silver Coin couldn't help but clap his hands in the soul network: "Lord Anthony's idea is truly wonderful. I was still wondering why he wanted to gather all the god-stars together instead of one-on-one contact. It turns out it was for this."
Nigris also felt the dead god-stick was too cunning, but he didn't understand where the cunning was. He couldn't help but ask: "Where is it wonderful?"
"There are too many wonderful points. First, one piece of our news can exchange for six pieces of news. If it were one-on-one, the other party uses repeated news to exchange, we have no way to refuse."
"Of course, we can also use the same news to exchange six times, but it is meaningless. We are for obtaining more useful news, not for taking advantage."
After a pause, Silver Coin continued: "Second, there is a competition mechanism, which can avoid the other party using some outdated, repeated news that everyone knows to exchange. In order not to be voted out by others and unable to participate in the next round, everyone will definitely rack their brains to come up with some exclusive news that is valuable and known by few people."
"Third, cross-verification. We just arrived in this world and know nothing about it, understanding nothing. We simply cannot identify what news is valuable and what news is valueless. Now we are not afraid; there are six god-stars for cross-verification. If even they think it is valuable, then the news must be valuable."
"And we only need to exchange news about the information storm, not afraid at all that the other party will deduce from our news range that we just arrived here not long ago," Silver Coin concluded finally.
Nigris gasped repeatedly: "This dead god-stick is too cunning. Isn't he afraid that others will see through his intentions and not play with him?"
Silver Coin said: "Why not play with him? If you bring out a piece of valuable news but can exchange it for six pieces of equally valuable news, would you not play? They also really want to know what exclusive news other god-stars have; otherwise, they wouldn't have sent Starborn here."
Sure enough, all the god-stars were very interested in this news blind box mechanism. Not a single one quit. They all asked for details, even the other four god-stars who had almost never spoken were no exception.
After confirming that everyone was participating in this game, Anthony pulled his hands apart, pulled out a devouring abyss, and then said to everyone: "Everyone put the information you want to exchange into the abyss. At the same time I release it, everyone can view all the information put in at the same time. Please begin."
All the god-stars put in the information they wanted to exchange, and at the same time, they swept across Anthony in astonishment.
This intensity of devouring abyss could be easily pulled out by the god-stars present. But they were all in a projection state now. Using a projection to want to pull out a devouring abyss with bare hands—they couldn't do it. ===== CHAPTER 1550 =====
