Chapter 17: Number Seventeen: Lone Camp! A Worthless and Meaningless Face-to-Face!
Number Seventeen: Lone Camp! A Worthless and Meaningless Face-to-Face!
"I'm a Dodo?" Su Yang's expression suddenly turned strange.
This identity sounded like it wasn't very bright.
What did "be careful of everyone" mean?
Was he in a camp all by himself?
He then continued reading, as the paper introduced the game rules.
【Camps are divided into Human, Werewolf, and Neutral】
【Humans must complete all daily tasks issued within the church to win; or kill all Werewolves and the Falcon/Pelican】
【Werewolves must kill all Humans and the Falcon/Pelican to win; they can also complete exclusive Werewolf tasks to obtain the 'Mischief' skill】
【Neutrals have their own tasks; please see the identity introduction for details】
【There will be a bell chime reminder every night at nine o'clock. During this time, you can enter the church to rest until seven o'clock the next morning. This period is safe time, and no one can be harmed】
【When a corpse is discovered, you can choose to report it. After reporting, all players must arrive at the church for a meeting within half an hour】
【During the meeting, the reporter speaks first, followed by players in numerical order. Each person is limited to 1 minute of speaking time, followed by the voting phase】
【In the voting phase, after a three-second countdown, each person selects one player. Not selecting represents an abstention】
【The player with the most votes—is expelled!】
【Now, please begin your carnival feast!】
The text stopped abruptly here, and the letter suddenly turned into ashes and drifted away.
"What is the Dodo's task?" Su Yang was suddenly curious.
Judging by the name, this was definitely not the Human camp.
It was even less likely to be a Werewolf; there was no such thing as a fool being a wolf.
Therefore, only the last Neutral camp remained.
The rules stated that Neutrals had their own tasks, and completing them counted as victory.
Su Yang looked at the expressions of the others on the scene and found that some were deep in thought, some were nervous, and some were calm.
"Everyone has received their identities, right? Where do we see the daily tasks?" the fat man asked.
"Let's look at the identity introduction first; I'm still a bit confused," Zhou Han suggested.
Everyone nodded in agreement and then went to the stone tablet at the end of the church.
The abilities and introductions of each identity were carved on it.
Human: Justice Seeker, Sheriff, Canadian Goose, Lover, Engineer, Detective, Birdwatcher, Politician, Adventurer, Avenger, Astral Messenger, Undertaker.
Werewolf: Professional Killer, Silencer, Assassin, Informant, Party, Invisible, Serial Killer, Morph, Demolitionist, Bird-Eating Duck.
Neutral: Falcon, Dodo, Vulture, Pigeon, Pelican.
"That's not right, it doesn't say how many wolves and how many Neutrals there are," Xiang Hao said suspiciously.
"If it's a sixteen-person board, there should be 3 Werewolves and 3 Neutrals."
"So few Werewolves? Then the Werewolves' chance of winning feels very small," Zhou Han pondered.
Yu Yue squinted at him and said indifferently: "Isn't a small chance of winning for Werewolves a good thing for the good guys? Are you a wolf?"
Zhou Han's expression sank upon hearing this: "Stop spitting blood here; I was just complaining casually, I didn't mean anything else."
However, the expressions of the people on the scene looking at him were quite complex.
Faintly mixed with a hint of strangeness.
A look of panic flashed in Zhou Han's eyes, and he hurriedly explained: "I'm really not a wolf, heaven can testify. If I were a wolf, may my whole family be hit to death when they go out!"
"We are all playing the game with our lives; do you think this kind of moronic oath is useful?" Su Yang suddenly spoke up.
"Besides, maybe your whole family is already dead; who knows?"
"Say that again, you motherfucker!" Zhou Han's eyes turned red instantly, and he grabbed Su Yang by the collar, shouting angrily: "Your whole family is dead!"
Su Yang pushed him away forcefully and tidied his messy clothes: "I hate face-to-face players the most; your defense is completely meaningless."
"Whether I'm a wolf or not, you'll know sooner or later. By then, I hope to see your repentant expression," Zhou Han snorted coldly.
Xiang Hao looked at the introduction and asked: "Werewolves shouldn't be able to know each other's identities, right?"
"That's right," the fat man nodded.
"In that case, wouldn't it be over if everyone just revealed their identities now?" Kong Feixue said.
"No," Yu Yue was the first to veto, pointing to the stone tablet: "The identities on this have checkmarks, and some have question marks."
"What does that mean?" Kong Feixue asked curiously.
"If I'm not mistaken, the ones with checkmarks are identities that will definitely appear, and the question marks are identities that might appear," Yu Yue pointed to 'Assassin' and continued:
"Assassin has a checkmark, which means none of us can expose our identities, otherwise we will be killed."
Everyone looked over in unison.
Assassin—has two chances per game to kill by correctly guessing a player's specific identity during the meeting; guessing wrong results in one's own elimination.
"So that's it, Demolitionist also has a checkmark, so we can't cluster together?" Xiang Hao pointed to the bottom of the stone tablet.
Demolitionist—can place bombs on other players.
"The good guys have four identities with checkmarks," the fat man said.
Sheriff: Maintains order, executes justice, can kill any player. If the one killed is a good guy, the Sheriff is eliminated.
Justice Seeker: Uses the sword of justice to cut off evil, can kill any player without consequences.
Canadian Goose: After being killed by a Werewolf, the killer will automatically report it after 1 second.
Avenger: If you witness a murder, you can gain the ability to defeat others for a short time.
"Neutrals only have two," Su Yang said.
Dodo: Wins the game if expelled by other players' votes.
Vulture: Wins by eating the eyeballs of five murdered people. If other players discover and call a meeting, the corpse will be removed.
"Assassin is on the field, so we can't expose identities; Demolitionist is on the field, so we can't cluster. I suggest we go in pairs. If one side is missing someone, we can immediately find the killer," Yu Yue suggested.
"No, I disagree," Zhou Han said loudly, "What if my companion is a Werewolf? I have no power to parry and can only wait to die."
"Then what do you want?" Yu Yue's eyes flickered.
"Go your own way, those who want to team up can team up themselves; that's the fairest way," Zhou Han stated his idea.
Su Yang pondered for a moment and felt that what he said made sense.
If they paired up, and the Werewolf killed someone without anyone discovering, the corpse might be eaten by the Vulture.
In this way, all players might be killed by the Werewolf in less than a day.
"Werewolves don't know who their wolf teammates are, so they won't kill randomly without being sure of your identity," Kong Feixue agreed with Yu Yue's statement.
Su Yang frowned: "But what if the pair is exactly two Werewolves?"
The scene suddenly fell into silence.
That's right.
What if it's two Werewolves who kill someone and run away? Who would know who did it?
"Look, didn't I say so?" Zhou Han's proposal was accepted. Although it was by Su Yang, that hateful person, he still felt a sense of accomplishment.
"Fine then, move freely, but don't blame me for not warning you if you die," Yu Yue said coldly.
The plan was finalized, and everyone scattered toward the task release location at the church entrance.
"Whether walking alone or teaming up, I have to have a gun in my hand for self-defense," Su Yang thought to himself. ===== CHAPTER 18 =====
