“Just as I thought, you’re no innocent flower. You’re just a sick madwoman. Just your strength is a bit lacking. I understand. Who would be willing to die? All right, just let me kill you obediently, don’t use the Wolf King skill. Our final battle is tomorrow during the day. I don’t want to repeat myself a second time. If you kill me, you’ll be directly voted out tomorrow during the day.”
Cthulhu said this, no longer planning to give Taoqimao a chance.
His wolf claws rushed toward Taoqimao’s neck at maximum speed!
If this hit, with the strength of the werewolf in this game, even the Wolf King with its strong regenerative ability could not resist!
Crack!
Pfft—!!!
Blood gushed out—.
A werewolf’s head flew into the air, its eyes full of disbelief.
The headless werewolf corpse stood still for 3 seconds.
Thud—
With a sound, it fell into the mud pit.
The blood had already soaked into the mud, making the already murky water even murkier.
A sickly excited laughter echoed through the rainy night, sending chills down one’s spine.
“Ha ha ha… Ha ha ha… Ha ha ha… Won… won again… Really… too pleasurable…!!!”
At that moment, Taoqimao knelt on the ground, having already exited the Wolf King state.
Her white lace short-sleeved shirt was completely stained red with blood.
She covered her face, not knowing if she was laughing wildly or crying loudly.
About 5 minutes later, Taoqimao felt as if she was about to suffocate from excitement, so she stopped that twisted smile.
She lowered her head, took a few deep breaths, patted her cheeks with her hand, and when she looked up again, her expression had turned cold.
She threw a bronze-colored game card on the ground.
[Swift]
[Card Level: R]
[Card Effect: Speed 2x increase, lasts 3 minutes.]
[Card Description: It may only last 3 minutes, but within those 3 minutes, you can do enough things, can’t you?]
The Wolf King’s physical quality itself was the strongest in this game, and with a 2x speed boost, how formidable was that?
Before Cthulhu’s claws could tear through her neck, she directly slapped Cthulhu’s head flying away.
“Indeed, I’m not as good as you at fighting… But… that was just me showing weakness… In a death game, how many players don’t hide their cards or disguise themselves? Ha ha ha… I don’t know what your game card is! So I never planned to give you a chance to turn things around. I was just waiting for the real moment to deliver a fatal blow!”
Talking to herself, Taoqimao stood up, dragged Cthulhu’s corpse, found his missing parts, held them in her arms, and walked toward Cthulhu’s thatched hut.
Then she threw everything inside, destroyed his room door to make it look like a good guy was killed by a werewolf, and finally left.
She sat alone at the round table, in the seat where Shiba Daye had been, in a daze.
“Actually, from the very first day, Brother Shiba Daye, you already knew I was a werewolf, didn’t you? I know, it’s simply because of how I look that you couldn’t bear to vote me out so quickly, right? Really, you’re so gentle~ Even if you had said it, I wouldn’t have been voted out. The werewolf and the lovers have a full 4 votes, you know~”
Taoqimao shook her head, an excited smile on her face.
“It’s fine… During the day tomorrow, vote out Unrivaled. When it’s late at night again, I’ll kill you with my own hands, absolutely not letting the system kill you. I’ll be… very gentle! After all, I really have started to like you!!!”
After saying this, Taoqimao patted her cheeks, and the sickly smile was gone.
Her expression became timid again, her eyes full of confusion and doubt, her hands crossed on her chest, and she said softly: “Tomorrow, I still have to pretend to be Brother Shiba Daye’s good little girl for another day. I’ll do my best~”
***
The next morning at 5:00 AM.
After yesterday’s thunderstorms, the sky had already brightened early today.
Just by looking at the light clouds in the sky, you could tell it would be a fine, sunny day.
In a certain thatched hut, a man dressed in a suit and trousers lay on the ground, feeling dizzy in his head, and sat up wearily.
“So tired… what… happened… Why… am I lying… Wait! Damn, I have no memory of last night… Yesterday, I died!!!!”
With disbelief, Cthulhu froze on the ground, eyes wide open, full of incredulity.
If saved by the witch’s antidote, one loses memory of that night.
Cthulhu immediately understood that he must have been killed last night, and then the witch saved him.
“Damn it, how did that bitch do it!”
‘Wait!’
‘Did I kill her, and she used her skill to kill me, and then the witch saved me? No, if that were the case, wouldn’t the game have ended the moment we two werewolves died??? …It shouldn’t. If I really killed Taoqimao and she took me with her skill, then the game should only end at dawn. The witch saved me, so the game should still be proceeding normally! But… Why… does it feel wrong!!! If killed by the Wolf King skill, can the witch’s antidote save you? In the Werewolf Kill game outside, it can’t. But in the death game, I don’t know!!! If she really killed me… then…’
“She’s hiding it too deep. I’m going to kill her!”
Immediately, Cthulhu felt a surge of anger and got up to go find Taoqimao and confirm what happened last night.
But…
He held back.
He began to analyze the situation under the assumption that Taoqimao had killed him.
After all, if the result was unfavorable and he had no preparation, he might directly fall into a disadvantage.
“The witch is not Baiduren! Or rather, if Baiduren was the witch, he couldn’t have been lovers with Taoqimao!!! Damn, looking at it this way, I’ve been wrong all along??? What the hell is going on? How did that little bitch manage to kill me? I was on guard against her the whole time!!!”
Cthulhu racked his brains but couldn’t come up with an answer.
No choice.
Without the memory of last night, his information was already behind Taoqimao’s.
And… he knew.
Now the only real werewolf was him.
He wasn’t part of the lovers either.
He was fighting alone.
Now the question was, who was that witch?
Think carefully.
The first two nights, no one was saved.
But who would save him?
Dieyu — impossible.
She should be a member of the third party faction.
Ordinary Girl Village Chief — impossible.
Given her manner, if she were the witch, she wouldn’t save anyone.
Taoqimao is a werewolf.
That leaves three people: Unrivaled, Baiduren, and Shiba Daye.
Baiduren has been helping him these days.
Or rather, he seems to have a big grudge against Shiba Daye and has been helping those who oppose Shiba Daye.
If he really isn’t in the lovers and is the witch, he might indeed save him.
Unrivaled is a rogue, very timid.
If he were the witch, he might really hold onto the antidote and not save anyone.
But if he were the witch, why did he poison Old Six Du on the first night instead of Shiba Daye?
…Think about it.
It might make sense.
If he isn’t in the lovers and is afraid of losing the game, even if he has resentment toward Shiba Daye, he might not dare to poison him.
On the other hand, Old Six Du had been acting like a good guy all day, making Unrivaled feel stifled.
Having resentment toward him, poisoning him is understandable.
And after seeing the situation yesterday, he really thought Cthulhu was the Prophet.
When he discovered Cthulhu died at night, knowing that if he didn’t save him, the game would be lost, saving him is perfectly reasonable!
Thus, Unrivaled’s likelihood of being the witch is not small.
“Damn, if it’s him, then he’s been hiding too deep!”
Cthulhu pounded his forehead with his fist, finally realizing he had underestimated the players in this game.
Players he thought were nothing special were all concealing their true skills.
Probably the only real fool was Great Emperor Zhenwu.
Conan, a player who thinks he’s smart, could at best be called a second-rate fool if anything.
“Of course, I can’t rule out the possibility that Shiba Daye is the witch…”
The possibility that Shiba Daye is actually the Prophet is very small.
He’s most likely the Hunter.
Given his actions over the past few days, his thought process is completely beyond normal understanding.
Although he fought tooth and nail with Cthulhu at yesterday’s judgment meeting, think about it — who does he hate more: Cthulhu, or Dieyu and Taoqimao for their betrayal?
This is really hard to say!!!
Moreover, when he discovered Cthulhu was dead, he might have thought Cthulhu really was the Prophet, so he saved him, just to join forces to deal with Dieyu and Taoqimao today!
But if he is the witch, then who is the Hunter?!
Damn, could it be that particularly gloomy Ordinary Girl Village Chief who picks fights with everyone?
That possibility is not small!
Cthulhu’s head felt like it was about to explode.
All three possibilities were significant.
