Upon hearing this, the four of them frowned slightly.

This sounds more difficult than imagined.

10 Fertility Badges equal 10 Male Badges and 10 Female Badges, a total of 20 badges.

Moreover, the rules state that using the device only has a "certain probability" of obtaining a badge, without specifying what that probability is.

The lower the probability, the more times each person needs to use the device on average. Is this reasonable?

Also, using these devices requires a Fertility Fund, but the game has not yet introduced where the Fertility Fund comes from.

From the game's mechanism, players must earn enough Fertility Fund to use the device 20 times; otherwise, "creating 10 Fertility Badges" is an absolutely impossible goal.

[Once the game officially starts, the door in front of you will open, allowing you to enter three different 'Judgement Rooms.']

[Inside each Judgement Room, there are two Sinners awaiting judgment.]

[In the Judicial Council, there are two players forced by the game to participate. You have not committed serious crimes, only made many controversial statements inciting hatred online, so you will not be the main targets of judgment.]

[However, most of the Sinners in these Judgement Rooms are true criminals.]

[Before entering each Judgement Room, you must answer a specific question. If you answer correctly, you will be rewarded with 120,000 points of Fertility Fund. If you answer incorrectly, there is no reward.]

[After entering the Judgement Room, the Sinner's crimes will be automatically read aloud.]

[The Chief Judge must engage in thorough discussion with the Jurors and finally make a judgment by striking the Gavel on the judgment platform.]

[According to the specific crimes of the criminal, and in comparison with the outcomes of their legal trials in reality, you can make three different choices for an 'additional judgment':]

['Innocent', 'Reprimand', and 'Death Penalty'.]

[If you choose to judge 'Innocent': it requires an additional 10,000 points of Fertility Fund.]

[If you choose to judge 'Reprimand': it requires an additional 1,000 points of Fertility Fund.]

[If you choose to judge 'Death Penalty': you will receive an additional 10,000 points of Fertility Fund.]

[Furthermore, if 'Innocent' or 'Reprimand' is chosen, the Sinner will be released to complete the subsequent game with you.]

[At the end of the game, if there is any remaining 'Fertility Fund', each point can be converted into '10 minutes of visa time', up to a maximum of 300,000 minutes of visa time. The profits will be equally shared among all surviving players in the arena.]

[These are all the rules of this game; please explore more rules on your own during the game.]

[The game will officially begin in 10 minutes, wish you good luck!]

Everyone took a moment to digest the specific rules of the game.

Although there is a lot of content, it can actually be summarized into two main steps.

First, go to each Judgement Room, judge the serious criminals, and earn or expend the Fertility Fund.

For those Sinners whose crimes are not punishable by death, consider rejudging them as innocent or reducing their sentences, save them, and complete the game together. As for the unforgivable crimes, directly rejudge them as a death penalty to exchange for the Fertility Fund.

What's the use of saving those Sinners?

Second, everyone shares the use of these two machines, creating 10 Fertility Badges to ensure that the 'Barbarian Race Population Invasion' Death Penalty Mechanism is not triggered.

If there is any remaining Fertility Fund, then everyone can split the money; if not, it's okay—being able to return safely from the judgment game is already something worth celebrating.

...

Li Jiang is already in front of these two different mechanical torture devices, observing carefully.

"Look, these two mechanical torture devices require gender binding for usage."

The other three gathered around to take a look, and sure enough, there are specific instructions for use beside these two mechanical torture devices.

['The usage fee for the 'Fertility Torture Devices' has three different levels: 10,000 Fertility Fund, 15,000 Fertility Fund, and 20,000 Fertility Fund.]

[When 10,000 Fertility Fund is invested, these two mechanical torture devices will operate in standard mode:]

[Device 1: The player will endure heavy pressure for 2 minutes, with a 5% chance of needle injury on non-vital areas of the body.]

[Device 2: The player's whole body will be connected with electrodes, enduring 2 minutes of intense pain, with a 1% chance of death.]

[When 15,000 Fertility Fund is invested, the time of pressure and electric shock, as well as the probabilities of injury and death, will all decrease to 1/2 of the original.]

[When 20,000 Fertility Fund is invested, there will be no harm.]

One rule is highlighted:

[Before the game officially starts, the Chief Judge must bind Device 1 and Device 2 for use by a specific gender, and the binding cannot be changed once set.]

[If over time, the binding will be randomly set.]

Yang Yuting thought for a moment: "This means we can bind Device 1 for male use and Device 2 for female use.

"Once bound, female players cannot use Device 1, and vice versa."

Li Jiang sighed silently: "Although I'm the only male present, Device 1 is only mine to use."

Yang Yuting thoughtfully nodded: "Seems so, these two mechanical torture devices seem to correspond to the different roles played by males and females in the process of fertility."

"The characteristics of Device 2 are especially obvious, with severe pain plus a 1% death rate. This clearly shadows women's childbirth, right?"

Jiang He frowned slightly, not quite agreeing with this perspective.

"Device 2 relates to childbirth, that's okay, but what about Device 1? Men don't need to have children. What does enduring heavy pressure and a 5% chance of needle injury imply?"

Li Jiang said as a matter of course: "It represents the financial responsibility and economic pressure men bear in the fertility process."

Jiang He countered: "Heavy pressure is barely relevant, but what does that high 5% risk of injury represent? How could it be higher than the female childbirth mortality rate?"

Li Jiang wasn't stumped by the question: "You've asked the right person; it represents 'workplace injury'."

"I've checked the data, the mortality rate from childbirth for women is about ten in a hundred thousand. Even if we estimate based on the largest number of 300 million childbearing-age women, the annual mortality is four to five thousand people."

"In reality, not every childbearing-age woman has children every year, so the actual death toll is at most one or two thousand."

"On the other hand, about 100,000 men die from workplace injuries every year, accounting for 90% of all workplace injuries."

Jiang He paused: "Aren't there any workplace injuries for women?"

Li Jiang nodded: "Of course there are; like I said, men account for 90% of workplace injury deaths, leaving the remaining 10% for women."

"Estimating roughly, the number of women who die from workplace injuries and childbirth combined wouldn't exceed 20,000, while men count as 100,000 from workplace injuries alone."

"The probabilities for these two machines are 5% and 1%, roughly aligning. Yet, if you look at real-world data, the 5% for Device 1 shouldn't be the injury probability, but rather the death probability."

"It can only be said that the Imitator designing this game showed some leniency towards men compared to the harsh realities of the world."
