The thing most not lacking in the rainforest was food, and coincidentally Blue Demon and them did not need that food.
For Blue Demon and them, this transaction was actually a business that would definitely not be a loss.
Xu Yuan "Mm"ed once, then asked Blue Demon.
"What things you all need, list them."
"Equipment and such for now don't consider."
After speaking, he saw Blue Demon ponder for a moment, then show an expression of being troubled.
It seemed apart from equipment, he apparently couldn't think what else they needed.
Seeing this, Xu Yuan also gave a reminder. "If you really can't think what you need, you can consider from the aspect of consuming their time."
Xu Yuan did not speak the words very clearly, his words actually also only played a guiding role.
At present, Blue Demon and them couldn't possibly demand equipment materials and such from the players, because the players also didn't have them.
So it might as well be approached from the aspect of wasting the players' time. If the players' time was spent on helping Blue Demon and them find things or running around, their development naturally would also be limited.
The reason Xu Yuan didn't tell Blue Demon exactly how to do it was actually because giving someone a fish is not as good as teaching them to fish.
After the rules were implemented in the future, Xu Yuan could not possibly participate in every single transaction.
So those animals and monsters who had to initiate trades themselves must think clearly.
What kind of things to ask the players to give them, what kind of things to give to the players.
Among these, there was indeed a very profound knowledge.
If not careful, the trading relationship between both sides would easily break apart, even bringing bloody disaster.
(Reference: villagers trading 10 emeralds for one bread)
So it must be well managed, to obtain lasting peace.
Hearing Xu Yuan's words, Blue Demon instantly felt as if he had been enlightened.
'There is actually this kind of plan?! This way, it is possible to rely on the traded goods to restrain the opponent's development!'
If Xu Yuan hadn't mentioned it, Blue Demon basically would never have thought of this point.
Blue Demon at first simply thought this was a bartering transaction.
Merely to take what each needed.
So when Xu Yuan informed them to temporarily not plan to get equipment and materials, Blue Demon then felt a bit troubled.
After all, animals and monsters had no food needs, and their other material needs were not high.
So for a while Blue Demon truly couldn't think of what he wanted to ask the players for.
After hearing Xu Yuan's words, Blue Demon's thinking also broadened a lot.
Creating trades with the players, for now, was the best way to replace war and maintain the survival environment of the animals and monsters.
If wanting to maintain this way, then it was necessary to put thought into the content of the trade.
'Seems the knowledge in this trading is indeed very deep…'
The traded items could play a role in restraining the players, naturally they could also play other roles.
But these could only rely on Blue Demon to slowly explore himself.
Thinking of this, Blue Demon pondered for a moment, then spoke, "The new rules implemented in the rainforest are being implemented for the first time."
"I feel if the first time we let the players run very far to find things for us, it will not be beneficial for the new rules to be implemented."
"For the players, if the first trade does not need to consume too much time to get a good result, they should be more likely to continue implementing the new rules…"
"As long as they complete the trade, they should spread the word…"
Saying this, Blue Demon frowned, pondered a moment, then continued speaking.
"It also cannot be too easy to complete the trade, there must be a balance, this we must carefully discuss…"
Blue Demon as the leader, many things Xu Yuan did not need to say much, as soon as he was pointed out, he understood.
As long as he understood the key point of the matter, Xu Yuan then did not need to worry about anything. The things after this, with his ability, naturally could be accomplished very well.
Blue Demon's series of proposals also fully explained he already understood what the most important link of the new rules was.
Hearing Blue Demon's words, Xu Yuan's face finally showed a gratified smile.
'Okay, brainwashing succeeded.'
Brainwashing naturally was a joke, but it must be said, Blue Demon now already thoroughly understood Xu Yuan's idea and had figured out the important links of the new rules.
Even without Xu Yuan there, Blue Demon could also implement it well.
And what Xu Yuan could be sure of was, Blue Demon would, like himself, uphold a fair attitude.
Although Blue Demon always stood on the side of animals and monsters, he was still very clear-headed.
He very clearly knew, the new rules were the only way out for the animals and monsters.
Players could not possibly disappear from this world. Even if Blue Demon obtained the power to rule this world, he could not change this fact.
Since he could not change this fact, he could only think of a way to change the players' thinking.
Blue Demon already had this kind of awareness, he would persist in working hard on this road.
This was also why previously when Blue Demon proposed to duel Xu Yuan, Xu Yuan agreed without any hesitation.
Blue Demon's condition was not fair, but Xu Yuan still immediately agreed.
It was not because Xu Yuan was overconfident in himself.
Actually Xu Yuan also did not have full certainty about fighting.
Although Xu Yuan had eight years of gaming experience, that was all operating on a computer.
After coming to this world, although he gradually began to adapt, basically when fighting, he was always using skills.
After coming to this Trial Land, Xu Yuan also didn't have too many occasions to fight others.
That is to say, for now, in operating, the brain could keep up, but it was not clear whether the hands could keep up.
If the opponent was someone else it would still be okay, but the opponent was Blue Demon.
Although Blue Demon also no longer had those special abilities, his proficiency in using the trident was still there.
So Xu Yuan also didn't feel he would definitely win.
And the reason he so quickly agreed to Blue Demon's duel request was because Xu Yuan already didn't care about winning or losing.
Blue Demon knew Xu Yuan's idea of establishing new rules and also agreed with his idea.
And he would also implement this idea. Furthermore, Blue Demon also equally possessed strong leadership and a heart of compassion for all living things.
So Xu Yuan also didn't care who led and who won the trial.
If Blue Demon defeated Xu Yuan, Xu Yuan would abide by the agreement to assist Blue Demon to help him win the trial.
Even if Blue Demon obtained the true HIM's power, Xu Yuan also absolutely would not feel unwilling.
Because for Xu Yuan, the result was the same.
Being able to maintain the order of the whole world, letting all living beings safely and happily live here, was enough.
As long as the ideals were the same, who was the ruler, for Xu Yuan, already was not important.
By now, Xu Yuan finally understood the meaning of the true HIM creating this Trial Land.
'No wonder even the existences of the Void could enter this Trial Land…'
Xu Yuan's ideal finally completely aligned with the true HIM's ideal.
For them, standing at the pinnacle of the world was far less important than letting this world become beautiful.
———
At this moment, in the sky above the Trial Land, in the heart of the true HIM was a surge of emotion.
From the time Xu Yuan and Blue Demon met, the true HIM had been observing this side's situation.
The true HIM very much admired Xu Yuan's proposal. Or rather, not only admired but also was pleasantly surprised and unexpected.
Xu Yuan's proposal was also a method that even the true HIM had never thought of.
Although this proposal was very crazy, the true HIM still felt this was feasible.
This proposal was a good way to maintain peace. And precisely because Xu Yuan proposed this kind of proposal, the true HIM already felt the balance of victory was gradually starting to lean toward Xu Yuan.
And at this moment, when he read Xu Yuan's inner voice, in his heart he could not calm for a long time.
"So quickly you have comprehended this truth…"
The true HIM had experienced many things, he had walked many detours, also made many wrong choices.
Precisely because of having these experiences, he gradually grew stronger and stronger.
Time's accumulation and grinding let him put down many obsessions and return to his original heart.
And after the true HIM comprehended these things, the originally slumbering he suddenly obtained a powerful force.
This force came from this world, it was familiar yet unfamiliar.
The only thing the true HIM could be sure of was, this force chose him.
This force awakened him, and precisely because of this force, he could prepare all these many matters.
Actually the true HIM at first was not optimistic about Xu Yuan.
After all, Xu Yuan was an outsider. The true HIM was also worried he could not empathize with the lives of this world.
Xu Yuan's system was precisely given to him by the true HIM.
But unexpectedly, this "outsider" whom he least favored at first had so quickly comprehended what he himself had struggled a whole life to comprehend.
Thinking of this, the true HIM smiled relievedly.
"The outcome has been decided."
From mentality and ideal, Xu Yuan already surpassed Tyrant HIM and Annoying Village HIM by far.
And he had long thought of a method to balance and counterbalance this world, so Xu Yuan's chance of winning was already very great.
Next it would depend on Xu Yuan's executing power of the "new rules," and also the ability to handle all kinds of sudden events.
The Trial Land was a small world. If the new rules could stably operate inside the Trial Land, then by the time they went to the main world, they could be completely copied over.
