Card Room (Rebirth)

Chapter 293.1: Acting Match

At this time, Yu Hanjiang was also carefully analyzing Xiao Lou’s thinking.

The first day, Xiao Lou didn’t appear as the prophet. Obviously, Xiao Lou had checked Yu Hanjiang’s identity and found that he was a werewolf. It wasn’t good to jump out and let everyone kill Yu Hanjiang. Therefore, Xiao Lou just hid for a day.

The next day, he jumped out as the prophet. First, he debunked the false prophet No. 22’s lie. Then he reported his own investigation, stating that No. 13 was a werewolf. No. 13 was indeed a werewolf but he definitely wasn’t verified by Xiao Lou.

It was because the identity of No. 13 was the ghost knight. The ghost knight possessed the anti-injury skill at night. If the prophet examined him then the prophet would be directly killed. Xiao Lou must’ve checked another teammate last night, either Ye Qi or Qu Wanyue. He couldn’t guide everyone to kill his teammate so based on his own analysis and reasoning, he concluded that No. 13 was a werewolf.

The words of No. 13 were indeed like a werewolf. On the first day, he helped canvass votes for his No. 22 werewolf. The next day, he targeted No. 34 who claimed to be the hunter. Thinking about it carefully, he could definitely be judged as a wolf.

As long as Xiao Lou checked either Ye Qi or Qu Wanyue, he could guess who the three wolves in the team were. Then he could deduce the three celestials. It was because Long Sen and Old Mo already revealed their civilian status. The remaining three celestials were natural. They were Xiao Lou, Shao Qingge and Liu Qiao.

From Yu Hanjiang’s point of view, the team configuration was already very clear. It was just that Xiao Lou only knew Yu Hanjiang was a wolf and Long Sen and Old Mo were civilians. He needed to test another teammate to confirm it.

Today, Yu Hanjiang believed Xiao Lou would have the team’s information.

Then he revealed himself as the prophet to guide public opinion to vote for the No. 22 wolf beauty. After that, he pointed the spear at No. 13 who looked most like a werewolf. Obviously, he was covertly protecting his wolf teammates Yu Hanjiang, Ye Qi and Qu Wanyue. He was throwing out the werewolves of other teams first.

Thinking back to the statements made by Long Sen, Old Mo, Liu Qiao and the others…

Old Mo and Long Sen had said, “Drive all the werewolves out of the village and the good people will win.”

Liu Qiao had said, “ I only know that the good people need to ensure that more than half of us survive to win. As long as everyone unites and casts the werewolves out, it isn’t difficult for half of us to live.”

Yu Hanjiang had received the goal to slaughter the village and kill all the good people.

People of different identities had different tasks.

Old Mo and Long Sen were ordinary villagers and needed to drive out all the werewolves to protect the safety of the village. Long Sen, Xiao Lou and Shao Qingge were in the celestial camp. Celestials didn’t have such strong feelings for the village and didn’t need to expel all the werewolves. They could win as long as they protected the lives of half their teammates. Meanwhile, werewolves had the highest difficulty mission. They needed to kill all the villagers and celestials.

The mission objections of his teammates were contradictory. How to choose?

It was very difficult for the villagers to win. It was because the villagers and celestials didn’t know each other’s identities. They were bound to mistakenly injure their own camp when voting. It was impossible to vote for a werewolf every day for eight days. In addition, the use of the celestials’ skills might not necessarily kill werewolves accurately. They needed to drive out 12 werewolves in eight days. This wasn’t possible unless God wrote a script for everyone.

The celestial camp was the easiest to win. They just needed to protect half their teammates. To ensure this, they just had to make sure the people who left every day were from different teams. For example, the four teams A, B, C and D participated in the game. Kill a member of team A tonight, team B tomorrow night and people from different teams every night. It was easy to do if the wolves discussed it well. There was also the protection of the witch, guard and dreamer and ensuring half the team lived to the end was very simple.

Due to its simplicity, the victory of the celestial camp definitely wasn’t a ‘perfect clearance.’

The task of the werewolves was very difficult but they knew each other’s identities and could cooperate with each other. They could also cooperate with their teammates on the contract book. It could actually be completed and was a perfect clearance.

He had to convey this to Xiao Lou as soon as possible.

Yu Hanjiang thought up to here and was decisive. “Kill No. 27 and 30.”

[You are the witch. No. 27, 30 and 33 have died tonight. Do you want to use the antidote?]

Liu Qiao was stunned when she saw the news.

27 was Long Sen and 30 was Old Mo. How could two teammates die suddenly? Was it a coincidence?

She quickly rejected the idea of it being a coincidence because there must be three werewolves in their team. It was impossible for these three people to remain indifferent when seeing Long Sen and Old Mo being killed at the same time. These three people had to agree that Long Sen and Old Mo were out or—perhaps they deliberately let Long Sen and Old Mo be eliminated to convey a message to the remaining teammates!

The more Liu Qiao thought about it, the more she felt it was the latter.

In a 36 player game, the wolves could randomly kill two people at night. It was the night of the third round and Long Sen and Old Mo were out at the same time. When they spoke yesterday, they both mentioned the task. Obviously, their werewolf teammates were conveying important information using this method so she couldn’t rashly use the antidote.

As for how 33 died, it was likely that the demon hunter shot and killed a werewolf!

She currently had both medicines in her hand but her antidote had to be used to save the most critical Xiao Lou. Professor Xiao was the prophet and couldn’t be killed. Liu Qiao took a deep breath and spoke calmly, “I won’t use the antidote.”

As ordinary villagers, Long Sen and Old Mo woke up from their sleep and found they were actually locked in a small, dark room, They immediately guessed they were killed by the werewolves. It seemed the players who were killed at night were locked in a small, dark room alone, unable to know the situation outside.

The narrow and dark environment could make people feel anxious. They could do nothing but wait for the result of the game in this dark room. This was undoubtedly a type of psychological suffering.

Long Sen walked around the small room, praying to give his teammates a bit of strength at this time. Meanwhile, Old Mo was thinking that after he went back to reality in the future, he should learn how to play Werewolf with his daughters.

It was dawn.

[Last night, No. 27, No. 30 and No. 33 were brutally killed!]

In the square in the middle of the village, the surviving players gathered again. The wolves could kill two people every night and three people died last night. Obviously, a celestial card was used.

The village chief stated, “Sheriff, please lead the villagers to find the lurking werewolves as soon as possible and drive them out of the village.”

Yu Hanjiang nodded. “Today, speak counterclockwise.”

The players who were currently out included 6, 16, 3 and 34 on the first day. 26, 31, 22 and 36 were eliminated on the second day and 27, 30 and 33 were eliminated on the third day.

On the third day of speaking, it went counterclockwise as usual and the first to speak was No. 35.

The man spoke calmly. “Last night, 27 and 30 were killed. Listening to their speeches, they should be ordinary villagers. Meanwhile, 33’s death is a bit strange. I remember that No. 33 is a girl and there is nothing remarkable about her speech the other day. The main thing is that she is suspected of being lazy and not contributing. The witch shouldn’t use an antidote for players with such a low sense of existence, right? Yesterday, the No. 11 prophet clearly pointed out that No. 13 is a wolf. If the witch wanted to poison someone, it is right to take away No. 13 by poisoning. Why did No. 33 die instead? Thinking about it, I feel the biggest possibility is that the demon hunter shot someone. If this is the case, isn’t the demon hunter’s intuition too accurate? After all, the risk of a demon hunter is quite high. If you kill the wrong person, you will die. Everyone later should analyze it.”

Since 36, 34, and 33 were all dead, the next one to speak was No. 32.

No. 32 still had the same style from the first day when he ran for sheriff. His speech was simple and he didn’t put forward his own point of view. “The analysis of the player next to me makes sense. It is better for me to listen to the speech of the No. 11 prophet. I am an ordinary villager and I believe that the No. 11 prophet is real. It is better to follow the prophet’s ideas.”

Xiao Lou, “……”

It seemed that the situation in the past few days made this villager dizzy and he simply gave up on thinking.

No. 29 was excited. “At present, only the identity of the No. 11 prophet is confirmed. I don’t understand why the wolves didn’t kill the prophet last night and instead killed the civilians 27 and 30. Perhaps it is due to the guard or dreamer protecting the prophet? As for the No. 13 werewolf that the prophet pointed out, why didn’t the witch poison him? I don’t understand. The witch should have two medicines in their hands right? What is the situation where none of them have been used? In any case, since 13 is the werewolf, we should first throw out No. 13!”

The moment these words finished, the village chief suddenly announced, “No. 4, our heroic knight has decided to launch a duel against No. 13!”

Everyone, “……”

This No. 4 person had quite a brash personality. He didn’t wait for the end of the speeches and directly dueled No. 13. Since No. 13 was indeed a werewolf, he failed the duel with the knight and was expelled from the village.

Knights could initiate a duel with a player at any time before voting during the day. This was a powerful celestial card. If the target of the duel was a werewolf then the opponent was out. If the duel was with the wrong person, the knight was out.

Based on his own reasoning and the testimony of the prophet Xiao Lou, No. 4 decisively took away the No. 13 werewolf. This further expanded the numerical advantage of the good camp.
