Card Room (Rebirth)
chapter-296-1

Xiao Lou’s speech was very logical and he spoke warmly and sincerely without showing any guilty conscience. Everyone thought about it carefully and felt that his words were reasonable. The prophet usually didn’t survive for three days but this was in traditional 12 player games.

Now it was a 36 player game and the wolves had too many cards that could be used to deal with the prophet. The nightmare wolf’s fear and the fire wolf’s rage could make the prophet lose his skills. For this reason, the wolves didn’t need to rush to kill the prophet. On the contrary, keeping the prophet as a hostage prevented the witch from using the antidote rashly. The wolves could dispose of other cards first and build up a numerical advantage faster.

Xiao Lou finished speaking and it was No. 9’s turn.

No. 9 was a werewolf. He acknowledged Xiao Lou’s analysis and then pointed the finger at No. 23 who was the first to question Yu Hanjiang. “I don’t think No. 23’s questioning has any evidence. Just because the sheriff isn’t dead, you say that the sheriff is a wolf? What if the werewolves want to kill celestial cards first? They think the sheriff is a civilian and have decided to keep him for now. In any case, I personally believe in the sheriff. After all, he does have a righteous face and doesn’t seem like a liar.”

Yu Hanjiang glanced at this person, the expression on his face not changing. The other wolf teammates couldn’t help admiring the wolf king’s excellent psychological quality. No. 8 was a man wearing glasses. He didn’t speak much and didn’t clearly state who he supported or doubted. He simply didn’t contribute.

Next was No. 7 Ye Qi and he looked at the rest of the speakers. There were only four people left who hadn’t spoken. In addition to him, there was the No. 5 Chief Shao, the No. 2 wolf teammate who was infected and the No. 1 Yu Hanjiang. It could be said that the rest were all his team.

In this round, the demon hunter didn’t reveal their identity. Would the demon hunter continue to hunt werewolves tonight? Looking at the players alive, there were 17 players. Out of these 17 players, the numbers 28, 25, 15, 9, 7, 2 and 1 were werewolves.

This meant there were currently seven werewolves alive and 10 good people. On the surface, the good people had the upper hand but Professor Xiao, Liu Qiao and Shao Qingge had already united with the wolves. The wolves had as many as 10 votes. Even if the good people united, there were only seven votes.

In this situation, hadn’t the werewolves almost won?

Ye Qi spoke solemnly. “I am the grave keeper. I turned over the tombstone of No. 35 who was thrown out yesterday and it turned out he was indeed a werewolf! He deliberately poured dirty water on the prophet and guided everyone to get rid of the prophet. It is really heartbreaking!”

Shao Qingge, “……”

He would’ve almost believed it if he hadn’t known that Ye Qi must be a werewolf. Xiao Ye had such superb acting skills. Maybe he could get a best actor award in the future when he went into the entertainment industry?

Ye Qi continued to speak with righteous indignation. “The wolves have collapsed now and are trying to attack the good people using all means! I will give you a careful analysis of the situation. In the first round, the No 34 hunter died and he took away No. 3 who is a wolf. In the second round, the No. 22 wolf beauty was eliminated. In the third round, the demon hunter killed the No. 33 wolf and the No. 13 wolf was killed in the duel. Everyone voted for the No. 20 wolf who was killed. In the fourth round, everyone voted for No. 35. I turned over his tombstone last night and confirmed he is a werewolf. In the fifth round, the witch poisoned No. 10 and the demon hunter killed No. 32. Two wolves died. No 22, 33, 13, 20, 35, 10, 32… they are all werewolves. In other words, eight werewolves have died so far and there are only four left!”

Hearing Ye Qi’s words, the eyes of some good people who didn’t know the truth brightened. There were only 12 people in the werewolf camp. If it was according to what he said and all these wolves were eliminated then there were indeed four wolves left.

Ye Qi’s analysis was very clear. However, his analysis was based on the premise that Xiao Lou was really helping the good camp.

For example, in the third round, Xiao Lou sent the knife to No. 20 but in fact, 20 was a good person. In the fourth round, everyone voted for No. 35 when he was actually the real grave keeper. In the fifth round, five people died overnight and four of them were actually good people.

It was just that the good camp didn’t know this. Who would’ve thought that the prophet would join forces with the wolf king?

Ye Qi finished his speech and Shao Qingge chuckled while touching his nose. “In fact, I am the dreamer. In the past few days, the subjects of my dreams were people who preferred to speak during the day. I listened to No. 7’s analysis and agree that the wolves might’ve collapsed. Their thinking is obviously messy.”

Shao Qingge narrowed his eyes and scanned the audience. “I suggest that you cast out No. 23 or No. 8 in this round… I found that No. 8 not contributing is a bit strange. If we vote them out today and tomorrow then the good people should be able to win.”

The dreamer also appeared and the situation on the field became clearer.

Shao Qingge finished speaking. The No. 2 newly infected voice spoke in a slightly less confident voice that was shaky, “Since we all feel that No. 23 is questionable, I will vote with everyone.”

It was Yu Hanjiang’s turn to summarize things. He looked at No. 23 and his voice was very calm. “No. 23 questioned the identity of the sheriff. In fact, it is reasonable. After all, the sheriff’s vote is equivalent to 1.5 votes. The threat is still quite big. However, that is in a 12 player game where every vote is important. Currently it is a 36 player game. The wolves can act in a group to vote. It is necessary to worry about the sheriff’s 0.5 votes? In a multiplayer game, the priority of the sheriff actually isn’t that big. The wolves didn’t even kill the prophet. I feel that there must be a problem with the command and internal chaos.”

He retracted his gaze and continued. “I suggest voting for 23 in this round. It isn’t because he questioned me. It is because when I looked at him, he would avoid my gaze like he had a guilty conscience. There is obviously a ghost in his heart.

No. 23, “……”

Hearing this, he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. It wasn’t that he deliberately avoided No. 1’s gaze. It was that the man’s eyes were too deep. Just looking at him caused a chill to go down his spine, as if… he had committed a crime? Few people here could keep looking at No. 1 for a long time, right? It was a pity that No. 23 had already spoken and he couldn’t say anything else. He could only swallow down his grievances.

After Yu Hanjiang’s speech, the voting began on the spot. Out of the 17 people, 13 voted for No. 23. The remaining four people who abstained were No. 23, No. 21, No. 12 and No. 8.

[No. 23 is out. Please make a last statement.]

The young man scratched his head helplessly. “I have the ominous feeling that the wolves are in control. I am a good person and it is very likely that it is the good camp who collapsed in this game. I hope the remaining good people will keep their eyes open!”

It became dark.

[Bloody Night Watch, Round 6: Night]

[The werewolves’ voice channel has been established.]

Yu Hanjiang’s eyes swept over the card wall. Several rounds of the game had passed and there were only 16 players left in the 36 player melee. Among the people who were still alive, numbers 5, 8, 11, 12, 17, 18, 21, 24 and 29 were all part of the good camp. The remaining seven people were in the werewolf camp. It seemed that the ratio of good people to werewolves was 9:7 but in fact, the werewolves were already in control.

It was because the No. 5 dreamer Shao Qingge, the No. 11 prophet Xiao Lou, the No. 18 witch Liu Qiao and the No. 24 Cupid would definitely stand on the side of the wolves. These four votes could be included with the wolves.

The biggest threats at the moment were the demon hunter and bewitcher.

The bewitcher wasn’t easy to kill. He could confuse a person to substitute for him. Therefore, the No. 17 player would be kept first. As for the demon hunter, it wasn’t known if his teammate had given him insufficient hints or he was insistent on leading the good camp to win.

He had been hunting werewolves at night for the past few rounds. If he killed Yu Hanjiang tonight… there was no way to change the outcome of the wolves’ victory but in this way, Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou wouldn’t be rewarded for the hidden mission.

However, Yu Hanjiang wasn’t worried about this. It was because Liu Qiao helped him block the knife.

Recalling Liu Qiao’s speech during the day, her words were wrong. She said she poisoned No. 10 when in fact, she poisoned the good person No. 32. The No. 10 werewolf was killed by the demon hunter! Liu Qiao said she poisoned No. 10 and the demon hunter killed No. 32. Once the demon hunter heard Liu Qiao’s words, they would know she was lying.

Therefore, compared to Xiao Lou’s reasonable logic and Yu Hanjiang’s face of justice, Liu Qiao’s lies were very obvious from the perspective of the demon hunter. If the demon hunter suspected she was a werewolf then she would be hunted tonight.

Once a demon hunter killed a good person by mistake, the demon hunter would die.

Therefore, Liu Qiao’s trick of ‘leading the snake out of the hole’ was actually very smart. If the demon hunter was a bit careless and killed Liu Qiao tonight, they would also be out due to wrongfully killing a good person. This would make it easier for the wolves to win.

Of course, the demon hunter might be a bit smarter and saw that Liu Qiao was the witch but she was standing by the wolves’ side. They wouldn’t risk killing the witch. Nevertheless, it didn’t matter which way the demon hunter took. The outcome of the wolves’ victory couldn’t be changed by one or two people.

It was the opposite of Ye Qi’s daytime analysis. It wasn’t that the wolves had collapsed… but the good camp that had collapsed.

Yu Hanjiang’s eyes swept over the scene. “Kill No. 29 and 21. No. 17 temporarily can’t be killed. He will just find a replacement to die for him instead. The dreamer and Cupid are both on the wolves’ side and they can be resolved at the end.”

No one had any objections to Yu Hanjiang’s decision and their knife pointed straight to 21 and 29. Immediately after this, Ye Qi suggested, “Or should I directly explode once it is dawn?”

He had already seen that the wolves had established a sufficient numerical advantage. There were currently 16 surviving players. Nine were good people and seven were werewolves.

After tonight, two more good people would be killed, leaving only seven people. This included Xiao Lou, Shao Qingge, Liu Qiao and Cupid who stood with the wolves. They could directly control the seventh and eighth rounds and cast out the good people.

As the apostle of the bloody night, Ye Qi had another advantage after self-explosion. It was to seal all the skills of the celestials so that the demon hunter couldn’t hunt and the bewitcher couldn’t find a substitute. These two hunters could be resolved tomorrow night.

***

At this time, the demon hunter’s perspective.

[Choose who you want to hunt.]

The man stared at the numbers on the card wall and smiled. “No. 25.”

[Congratulations, you have successfully hunted a werewolf and can live until tomorrow.]
