Due to the Blood Night Apostle's self-destruction, all God Card abilities will be sealed tonight. Guardians can no longer protect, Dream Catchers can no longer dream, and the Witch's antidotes and poisons can no longer be used.
Only Werewolf Faction can act tonight.
After the voice channel was established, Yu Hanjiang quickly scanned the card wall in front of him.
Currently, there are 23 players remaining. From Werewolf Faction's perspective, teammates can be seen. Among them, number cards 1, 9, 10, 13, 14, 15, 20, 25, 28, 29, and 33 all have a wolf icon in the crescent moon behind them. Apart from Yu Hanjiang, who is the special "Wolf King," there are also two special wolf cards: number 13, "Ghost Rider," and number 25, " White Wolf King." The rest are all small wolves.
The following members of the good guys' camp are still alive: 5, 6, 11, 12, 18, 19, 21, 23, 24, 31, 32, and 34.
There are 11 werewolves and 12 villagers.
Since Xiao Lou and Liu Qiao have clearly sided with Werewolf Faction, starting tomorrow, Werewolf Faction can completely force vote-rigging during the voting phase. Regardless of the voting method, as long as Werewolf Faction is united, almost no logic is needed; whoever Yu Hanjiang wants eliminated will be eliminated.
The key question is whether Werewolf Faction can unite as one.
The fact that the Gravedigger suddenly jumped out to attack Xiao Lou yesterday shows that the team the Gravedigger belongs to has its own strategy. It is very likely that the Gravedigger wants to protect his teammates to achieve the "more than half of the team members survive" condition for clearing the game. Killing other people will allow his teammates to live for a few more days.
Werewolf Faction is merely a temporary alliance. Yu Hanjiang holds the title of "Wolf King," but the other Werewolf Faction members may not follow his lead. If problems arise during the voting phase, Werewolf Faction's mission to wipe out the village cannot be accomplished.
Yu Hanjiang took a deep breath and said, "Let's kill 34 first among the remaining good people. Her remarks during the day were so confident, directly confronting Number 11. Her identity is very likely that of a hunter."
Someone questioned, "Number 1, are you sure your strategy is sound? Number 11, Prophet, is siding with Werewolf Faction, and Number 18, the witch, is protecting Prophet. There must be another witch on the scene. As soon as the other witch steps forward, their lies will be exposed immediately! There are still 12 good guys left, and only 3 days left. How are you going to kill them all?"
As soon as this person spoke, the others also raised their suspicions: "Could it be that player number 1 is trying to protect his teammate and get him into the finals?" "It's obvious that player number 11, Prophet, is teammates with player number 1, and the two have great chemistry." "The round that player number 11 claimed to be Prophet, he immediately sided with Werewolf Faction. I strongly suspect that he checked player number 1's identity and knew that player number 1 was a werewolf, so his teammates teamed up!"
"If Werewolf Faction fails to complete the village massacre mission, and if Team 1 and Team 11 cooperate to protect half of their teammates until day seven, their team will clear the mission. Wouldn't the other teams become cannon fodder?"
"We've been following Number 1's strategy. Number 1 decides who to kill each night. If he chooses all the other teams, then on the seventh day, regardless of whether Werewolf Faction wins or not, his team will have more survivors, so he'll definitely be able to clear the game!"
An argument broke out in the voice channel. Yu Hanjiang frowned and listened patiently for a moment.
It's only natural that people would have doubts about him.
After all, they were strangers before forming a team on short notice. Who can guarantee he didn't have ulterior motives? The last person's point is very valid: Yu Hanjiang designates the kills every night. If he deliberately avoids his own teammates and focuses on killing other teams, then no matter how they play, more than half of his teammates will definitely be alive by the seventh day, guaranteeing his team's victory. The other teams will be doomed, essentially being sold out as cannon fodder.
Yu Hanjiang is quite pleased that Werewolf Faction members can put forward such ideas, as it at least proves that these people can think for themselves instead of blindly following his rhythm—following the rhythm of a stranger from beginning to end is truly foolish.
Fortunately, Yu Hanjiang anticipated that he would be questioned by Werewolf Faction members after running for police chief, and he was prepared for this.
As the argument on the voice channel escalated, Yu Hanjiang interrupted everyone in a low voice: "I can explain your doubts now, please let me finish."
His deep, powerful voice did indeed silence the audience for a few seconds.
Although Werewolf Faction is controversial, everyone knows that arguing is not the solution, and many people are willing to listen to his explanation.
Yu Hanjiang said, "Numbers 27 and 30 who were killed last night were actually my teammates. I took the initiative to kill my teammates, so there was no intention of sacrificing other teams to ensure my own team's success. If you don't believe me, you can verify it on the spot. If Numbers 27 and 30 were your teammates, you can expose me right now."
There was a few seconds of silence, and no one stepped forward to expose him.
Yu Hanjiang said, "Am I right? 27 and 30 are both my teammates, as is Prophet, number 11. I teamed up with number 11 because we had enough chemistry. He probably checked my identity on the first night and knew I was a werewolf, so he decided to follow Werewolf Faction's mission and help them wipe out the village. The moment he sided with Werewolf Faction, he was already prepared to sacrifice himself."
Upon hearing this, someone couldn't help but wonder: "Isn't this too risky? What if Werewolf Faction fails to massacre the village and your team can't complete the mission? Wouldn't you all be wiped out?"
Yu Hanjiang calmly said, "Please carefully recall the hints given at the start of the game— the objective of Werewolf Faction is to massacre the village. Once you complete the village massacre mission, you can lead your teammates on the contract book to a perfect victory in this escape room. Have you found the key point?"
He paused, and soon a boy exclaimed, "Perfect completion?!"
Yu Hanjiang
Nodding, "That's right. Our Werewolf Faction mission is the one that gets a perfect completion. God Card, Villager Card, Cupid —none of their missions were ultimately rated as perfect completions. My teammate #11 really likes to draw an S-rank card after a perfect completion. I'm pretty sure his mission didn't mention 'perfect completion,' it was just a regular 'complete.' After analyzing it, he deduced that the Werewolf Faction's village massacre was the perfect completion, which is why he helped me… Do you all understand my explanation?"
Upon hearing this, the others finally understood.
During the daytime discussions, many people subtly hinted at the mission objectives, and everyone has analyzed them themselves— the Villager's mission, "drive away all werewolves," cannot be completed within 7 days; the God Card's mission, "protect more than half of the teammates from surviving," is not difficult to complete as long as the Guardian, Dream Catcher, and Witch know how to play. Therefore, this mission line is definitely not a perfect completion rating.
The Werewolf Faction mission, which involves massacring the village, is quite difficult to complete. It's unlikely that Werewolf Faction alone can kill 22 people in 7 days; you'll need to coordinate with some clever God Cards and Villagers to achieve the goal of massacring the village.
Once the conditions for massacring the village are met, Werewolf Faction can lead his team to achieve a "perfect completion" rating.
There are 36 players in total: 14 werewolves and 22 villagers. The game lasts only 7 nights and 7 days. If you kill 2 werewolves each night, you can kill a total of 14 werewolves. If you vote out 1 villager each day, you can kill a total of 21 werewolves.
However, God Cards can save people at night, such as on Christmas Eve, which wastes Werewolf Faction's kill attempts. During the day, it's difficult to consistently vote for good guys to be eliminated; some Werewolf Faction members have become too suspicious, such as player number 3 on the first day and player number 22 on the second day, making it impossible for Yu Hanjiang to explain away their actions, thus wasting voting opportunities.
It would be very difficult to kill all 22 people in 7 days.
Therefore, the key to the game is to figure out what methods to use to eliminate all the good guys within a limited time.
Werewolf Faction cannot function on its own; it also requires the cooperation of some God Cards.
Those who had questioned Yu Hanjiang earlier fell silent after careful consideration.
A girl whispered, "Number 1, what you're doing is risky, but also exciting. Everyone prefers a perfect clear to a normal clear, because only a perfect rating can get you the S-card treasure chest."
A boy next to him said, "We have 11 werewolves and 12 villagers. If we kill two villagers tonight, we will have the advantage in numbers. The sheriff will still count as 1.5 votes. We can control the vote during the day. We don't need to argue with Villager. We can just vote for whoever the sheriff says."
Those who were still dazed felt a chill run down their spines upon hearing this.
Werewolf Faction controls the vote.
It is entirely possible to do so when Werewolf Faction has the advantage.
Someone who was good at math also offered their analysis: "We have three nights and three days left. If the witch doesn't use the antidote and the guards don't activate their shields, we can kill 6 people smoothly at night; if we throw out 3 people during the day, we still can't kill all 12 good guys."
Yu Hanjiang calmly said, "How about everyone listens to my arrangements?"
Everyone quieted down to listen to the sheriff's analysis.
Yu Hanjiang said, " White Wolf King can self-destruct during the day. After dawn, White Wolf King on the 25th will patiently wait for everyone to speak. As soon as a witch, guard, or Dream Catcher appears, you should immediately self-destruct and take them away. Don't let them use their protective skills."
Number 25 nodded and said, "Okay."
Yu Hanjiang said, "We'll kill two on the sixth night. During the speaking phase on the sixth day, we'll control the votes and get rid of one. We'll kill two more on the seventh night, and on the last day, I'll self-destruct to kill them both, because I have a couple with me at the scene. If I self-destruct, they'll follow me in death."
Everyone was stunned. They hadn't expected the sheriff to be paired with Cupid as a lover? What was Cupid thinking?
The mathematician just said, "The numbers are still wrong. There are 12 good people now. Two will die tonight, and White Wolf King will take one away at dawn; two will be killed tomorrow night, and one will be voted out at dawn; two will be killed the night after tomorrow, and you will self-destruct and take two away during the day. In total, only 10 people will die. We don't have enough time, and it will be difficult to meet the conditions for massacring the village."
Yu Hanjiang said, "The witch is on our side, and she will use poison. Also, the Dream Catcher here shouldn't be so stupid as to not realize that this is a werewolf village massacre game. As long as the witch and the Dream Catcher help us, I have a way to achieve the conditions for completing the game by massacre the village."
Everyone was filled with anxiety: "Are you sure they'll help?"
Yu Hanjiang said confidently, "I'm sure—because they are my teammates."
The other werewolves present looked at each other in bewilderment.
Yu Hanjiang continued, "I believe my teammates understood what I said. Surely your teammates aren't all so rigid and only focused on their own tasks? Do you really think your teammates still haven't grasped the situation?"
White Wolf King was the first to step forward and say, "I agree with Wolf King Number One's point of view. A perfect victory is certainly not easy; it requires some challenge. If no one is willing to try, starting tomorrow, every night the werewolves will fight each other, and everyone will work together to ensure that more than half of the players survive. There will be no reward after the victory." He smiled and said jokingly, "Are you willing to complete the game that way? Wasting seven days running around this lousy village and then returning empty-handed?"
Everyone: "..."
Werewolf Faction was a bunch of slackers who just coasted through the game and killed each other. It was such a pathetic way to finish the game. We played for seven days and ended up not getting any treasure chests.
The temptation of a perfect clear is too great. Besides, what No. 1 said is right. Not all of your teammates are idiots. By tomorrow, you should be able to guess some of it, especially when Werewolf Faction controls the vote. If you still don't understand, then go bang your head against a wall.
Yu Hanjiang simply
The narrator said, "Since the majority has decided to go for the 'perfect completion' questline, tonight we'll kill number 34, who most resembles God Card. She's very likely a hunter, so we'll take advantage of God Card's sealed abilities to eliminate her. Then we'll kill number 19, who jumped to the gravedigger's side yesterday. He doesn't side with Werewolf Faction, and he might continue to influence public opinion during the day."
No one objected, and they all raised their knives, aiming at 34 and 19.
...
Daylight broke.
Last night, players number 19 and 34 were eliminated.
The crowd gathered in the center of the square. Yu Hanjiang glanced around and said, "Speak counter-clockwise."
Speaking counter-clockwise, the first to speak was user #33, Werewolf Faction, who bluntly said, "I'm a bit confused. Why did the Blood Moon Apostle self-destruct yesterday? You guys analyze it."
This attempt to get away with it is too obvious...
Player #32 hadn't expected him to finish in just one sentence. When he stood up, his voice was still somewhat bewildered: "I'm a regular Villager. Did the Blood Moon Apostle suddenly self-destruct to seal the God Card skill because Werewolf Faction killed the witch last night? But why didn't Witch #18 die? If there are any other witches here, please come forward and explain. Is what Witch #18 said true?"
Number 31 stood up, smiling, and said, "I am another witch, and I can testify to what Number 18 said yesterday..."
Before she could finish speaking, a blood moon suddenly rose in the sky. A notification popped up immediately afterward—
White Wolf King, number 25, self-destructed, leading to the elimination of number 31.
Good guys camp: "..."
Can't you let someone finish speaking?
The self-destruction occurred on the 25th, plunging the world into darkness once more; this marks the sixth day since then.
The number of good people still alive is 5, 6, 11, 12, 18, 21, 23, 24, and 32.
Yu Hanjiang ignored the user number 32, whose identity was more like Villager when speaking, and instead chose to kill users 12 and 21.
...
Daylight broke. The people who died last night were the 6th, 12th, and 21st.
At this point, there are still 10 werewolves left, while the good guys only have a pitiful 6 left. The game has progressed to the sixth day.
During the voting phase, Yu Hanjiang designated the speakers to proceed counter-clockwise.
Number 32 asked in confusion, "How come three more died? Are the good guys going to lose?! Have they run out of witch's antidote?" This person clearly didn't know how to play and still hadn't grasped the situation.
Number 29 laughed and said, "The good guys losing doesn't mean the team will lose. If I say anything more, I'll get banned. Let's see who the sheriff votes for."
28, 25, 24, 23...
The next few all went over the microphone and didn't speak.
When it was Liu Qiao's turn, she only said one sentence: "I was the one who poisoned the team last night, which got No. 6 eliminated."
Xiao Lou didn't bother to elaborate, simply saying, " It's safer to vote for Villager number 32 today. There's a good chance there's still an 'Idiot' card in the God Card pool, and if that card is voted for, it's immune to damage and won't be eliminated. Don't waste your votes."
Number 32: "..."
Is Prophet finally giving up on pretending? Did he just remotely communicate with the sheriff and vote Villager out?
Everyone after Xiao Lou went over their microphones and remained silent, clearly indicating that Werewolf Faction was in control. This escape room scenario likely follows the Werewolf Faction questline.
Yu Hanjiang finally gave a decisive vote: "32."
The others present were more united than ever before, and all voted for number 32.
When No. 32 delivered his last words, he said helplessly, "No. 11 and No. 1, you two are too good at pretending. I have nothing to say."
...
The seventh day, night.
The werewolves began to move, and the number of good guys left was dwindling.
5, 11, 18, 23, 24.
Yu Hanjiang said, "Kill number 5 and number 23."
Number 18 is Liu Qiao. We 've already used her poison, so there's no need to keep her alive. Kill number 23 first, and then finish off number 24 tomorrow with a self-destruction. (Because number 5 is Shao Qingge...) Yu Hanjiang was well aware of his identity; back in the speech phase on the day four people died, Shao Qingge was from Dream Catcher's perspective.
When analyzing the "four deaths last night," he mentioned the three most common possibilities: " Cupid killing people, witch poisoning people, and Dream Catcher poisoning people over two nights in a row." However, he omitted the possibility that " Dream Catcher was killed, and the designated sleepwalkers would be implicated"—because he is Dream Catcher, and he subconsciously knows that this possibility does not exist, and he is still alive.
Shao Qingge is definitely God Card. Yu Hanjiang has figured out he's Dream Catcher. Unless Shao Qingge has completely lost his mind, the best course of action is to directly link up with Liu Qiao, allowing Yu Hanjiang to kill them both at once. As for Xiao Lou, Yu Hanjiang certainly has his own way of dealing with him.
Werewolf Faction delivered the final two blows to players number 5 and 23.
Daylight broke. The deaths last night were: May 18th and 23rd.
As Yu Hanjiang analyzed, Shao Qingge did not falter at the crucial moment, eliminating Liu Qiao along with him and creating the conditions for Werewolf Faction to massacre the village.
The seventh day, the final round of the game.
Upon seeing the surviving players on the field, Yu Hanjiang activated the Wolf King's self-destruct skill—
The Wolf King self-destructed, taking player number 24 with him.
Prophet committed suicide on the 11th.
Game over. Werewolf Faction wiped out the village, killing all Villagers and the God faction. Congratulations to all teams for achieving perfect completion!
