Chapter 1193 Prisoner's Dilemma
The concept of hilariousness among hair people is so absolute—
Once Avas was confirmed as the King of Wingeds, Chief Erlo immediately gave up all his previous thoughts.
She knelt on the ground in a tame manner, just like those hawks who bowed to her, trying to show her piety and loyalty in an almost humble manner. She was helped up by Avas, and then she sat back to her previous position.
Erlo finally spoke, and told Aivas the most precious thing in the desert without reservation - the information.
"Although people call forces against the good Lords the 'rebels', in fact, they are not a unified organization. Even their ideas, combat power, distribution and even race are completely different. Strictly speaking, the Hanshui Army is also an unorganized organization.
"For example, the largest rebel organization near the Holy Spring City is called the 'primitive sect'. They formed together in a certain religious way and respected the will of the leader. And their hostility towards the good master is not particularly strong... Or in other words, they just hope to form a semi-independent organization as a slave as a temple of the Snake Man. They worship Yatiansi, stay away from the city and all civilizations, and do not even communicate with each other with verbal communication, and live a carefree life like a beast.
"And in Wanyou City, near the city with the name of "ten thousand joys", the "Gao Blood Gang" was formed. It was an extreme human supremacist armed group. They rescued, gathered a large number of human slaves, wandered around the oasis by plundering foreign resources. And they also penetrated a large number of free people into the gang, providing them with secret resources in the city.
"They do not fight against the system of the Ancient Kingdom of Rest, but want to plunder a 'city that belongs only to humans'. They will even capture foreign slaves and sell them to slave knights, or buy them, rob some foreign slaves, use them freely, and punish them. They will ask the gang members to eat a foreign child alive in public, which proves that they do not have the determination to regard foreigners as their kind."
Ero has obviously introduced more to the "Gun Blood Gang".
Obviously, the Hawks are also on the recipes of the Ghoul Blood Gang.
When Evas asked, Erlo nodded without hesitation and replied: "I have a son who was caught and eaten by them.
"—If I have the chance, I will hang them up and tear them apart. Feed their flesh and blood to all the compatriots who have taken away their family members."
As the chief, Elo was not shaken in this matter at all: "Even if you stop me, I will definitely do this."
"Eye for an eye, tooth for tooth. This is what it should be."
Aivas nodded slightly.
He asked again, "Where is Paradise City and Hassan?"
"The organizations near Paradise City are derived from the organization led by Hassan in the past. They don't have any clear organizational names... but people call it the 'Red Hands'."
"Is it the 'red hand' corresponding to 'Fire Fist'?"
Avas asked.
Erlo shook his head slightly: "Not all. It's mainly because their philosophy... is more extreme.
"Hassan regards the Good Lord as an opposition, and regards the opposite of "water" as a symbol. Those who join the Red Hand Party are basically the Avengers who have been destroyed by the Good Lord and his subordinates. They will destroy the cities at all costs.
"The free people who obey the will of good ideas are no different from puppets and slaves. Even the free people have never truly gained freedom. It is just freedom raised by the good people. It is like sheep raised in a sheep pen, and sheep raised freely on the grass."
Ero said so.
Aivas was a little surprised.
——You did know that those sheep were raised by others, not wild?
Erlo continued: "Just as a slave is the property of his master, if a slave makes a mistake, he will go to his master to settle it... There are some things that can be forgiven by punishing the slave, but there are some things that must be paid by the master himself.
"Because the slave itself is the owner's property. From this perspective, it is impossible to try to make the slave fight against his master, or even let the slave stand in the middle. There are some rebels, the rebels will rescue the slaves righteously, and then betray them by the slaves... The most legitimate rebels can hardly survive."
Upon hearing this, Aivas nodded.
That's true.
His ritual teacher Ibn was like this back then - he saved people but was betrayed by the people he saved. Even Zhu Tang had experienced similar things... After all, in the cognition of most slaves, the good Lord is invincible and unshakable. It is something that is naturally as the cornerstone of the world, and a great existence that is generally unshakable and unshakable and unshakable.
They themselves know how hard the life of slaves was. Following the rebels might be sentenced to death after failure, and as long as they betray them once, they can directly obtain the status of a free citizen and immediately obtain quite generous property.
There is no price or risk - as long as they get their intelligence, the good Lord can easily wipe out the rebels. Even just need to know the coordinates, the ritual master and the curse master can attack extremely long-rangely, directly hitting no living person inside, and then letting the knights come out to clean the battlefield.
And there must be more than one slave to save.
Among these slaves, as long as one person betrays, others will die together; if multiple people betray them, then the second one and the future will hardly receive any reward.
——Evans knew that this was the typical prisoner's dilemma.
According to Aivas's knowledge, there are generally two completely different solutions to the prisoner's dilemma.
When the experiment is long and repetitive, people will eventually tend to cooperate. If multiple people participate in the experiment at the same time, people will always tend to cooperate with those who choose to cooperate. As their understanding becomes closer, those who are willing to cooperate with others will also be chosen by others.
This is the power of "morality" and "benevolence".
This is why civilization comes.
But if we know in advance and we both know clearly that such an "experiment" will only be carried out once, people tend to choose to betray.
On the one hand, this is because they don’t understand each other, they are vigilant and distrust each other, and on the other hand, they are also out of "stability".
The more nervous, scarce, and dangerous ambitions a person is, the more he tends to choose something certain - just like 100% gained 50,000 and 50% chance of gaining 100,000.
Although these two numbers are the same in mathematical expectations, it is highly likely for people who have no money to choose the former, and only those who are not short of money can choose the latter.
When the slaves were captured and rescued, they were in an extremely embarrassing situation.
Once they are discovered, they will be sentenced to death - because the collaborators of the Rebel Army are also regarded as the rebel army, and the rescued slaves are also regarded as their collaborators. Therefore, all slaves who are asked by these rebel army to cooperate often choose to betray under pressure, which is naturally "human nature".
After all, even the slaves themselves do not want to abolish slavery.
If people don’t save themselves, how can they save others?
"...Therefore, the Red Hands chose the most extreme path. They gave up on rescuing slaves and also gave up on increasing companions from the free people."
Chief Ero said slowly: "'Since the free people are slaves of the good masters, the harm to the free people can also hurt the good masters'. This is their thought."
“…It’s true.”
Aivas was silent for a while, but still had to sigh and nodded.
To the Good Lord, his inhabitants are his property itself.
The good masters are like playing a simulation business game. They must regularly sacrifice some people to obtain water resources. The more people sacrificed, the more water resources, the more people will attract to settle here... This is like the "houses" in the business game.
Therefore, the more people hoarded, the larger their wealth base will be. Personal property can accumulate wildly at an incredible speed until it finally becomes a meaningless number.
"And what the Red Hands do is simple..."
Erlo also took a deep breath, obviously quite afraid of these lunatics: "That is to ignite the flames.
"Burn the oasis with fire and destroy the water source. As long as people cannot live here, they will naturally escape.
"Only when the good Lord's real assets - the population, can the good Lord feel pain, be angry, and be hysterical... and reveal real flaws. In addition, rebellion is nothing more than a child's spoiledness and playfulness."
"You mean..."
Aivas' eyes widened.
