Chapter 18

If he hadn’t intentionally changed his appearance, he would likely have looked like a street thug.

Both his tone and his look fit the description perfectly.

At that moment, the surrounding Players were also drawn in.

Most of them adopted a spectator’s stance, with no intention of intervening.

One person even stepped out to support the accusation.

He looked to be a 25-year-old man, wearing a dress shirt and trousers.

Yi Mo remembered his nickname was Cthulhu.

He looked quite refined as he spoke.

“Looking at Unrivaled’s expression, he must have discovered a critical issue, otherwise he wouldn’t be this agitated, right?”

“Everyone might as well listen. If he really found a Werewolf, it would be a good thing for all of us!”

Unrivaled was the nickname of the character with yellow hair.

It sounded reasonable enough, but Yi Mo knew that this man had already sided with the yellow-haired thug’s group.

Most of the others nodded in agreement.

Yi Mo took a moment to look at Dieyu.

She was currently wearing a meaningful smile, but she had no intention of coming over to help.

The ordinary girl, Cunzhang, lowered her head slightly.

Her face was stony and expressionless, carrying a hint of mockery.

Clearly, she couldn’t be bothered with them.

Surprisingly, it was the most timid-looking one, Taoqimao, who actually spoke a few words for Yi Mo.

“That… the game has… just started…”

“Would it… be too…”

She stammered, her voice so small that it was clear she was terrified.

Upon hearing this, Unrivaled glared fiercely at Taoqimao before crudely interrupting her.

“You’re helping him? I bet you’re a Werewolf too, aren’t you?”

“Hahaha! Look everyone, I’ve found two Werewolves for you!!!”

The oldest person present appeared to be a 60-year-old man wearing black and red Daoist robes.

He looked very calm and shrewd, and his name was Old Six Du.

He stepped forward, cupping his hands.

“Heroes come from the youth. If a Werewolf really has been found right at the start, that would be a good thing for everyone.”

“I presume this young man, Unrivaled, must have some basis for his judgment to be so certain.”

“Why don’t you tell everyone?”

“If everyone agrees that this Shiba Daye is indeed likely a Werewolf, we will naturally vote him out!”

Unrivaled nodded upon hearing this and began to speak.

“Listen up, everyone!”

“When I entered the game, I was closest to this guy, so I saw him clearly!”

“That strange cry right at the beginning? That came from him!”

“Naturally, I noticed it and have been observing him ever since!”

“After the game rules were announced, he was constantly observing everyone, just like a Werewolf looking for a target to kill!”

“Heh, anyone can see it. With that gloomy look of his, he was bound to get a Werewolf card!”

“And sure enough, after the Identity Cards were distributed…”

“I saw him lower his head with my own eyes, and his face went dark. Even though his expression didn’t change much…”

“I could feel that sense of unhappiness!”

“It was exactly like someone playing cards who just pulled a rotten hand!!!”

This was, of course, based on Unrivaled’s own experience.

After finishing, he swayed smugly, looked at the people around him, and finally reached his conclusion.

“This guy named Shiba Daye got a Werewolf card, and that’s why he looks so unhappy!”

“He is the Werewolf!!!”

As Unrivaled finished speaking, most of the surrounding Players began sizing Yi Mo up.

Indeed, because Yi Mo had intentionally given himself a poker face, he looked expressionless, as if everyone owed him five million dollars.

It was a very irritating look.

Coupled with his slightly long bangs that half-covered his eyes, he did indeed look quite gloomy.

Suddenly, combined with Unrivaled’s words, everyone’s impression of him turned sour.

Besides those who were hesitant, a few Players were actually led astray and began to believe he truly was a Werewolf.

Yi Mo looked around.

Seeing that no one else was speaking up for him, he felt a surge of self-mockery.

Heh, this is a Death Game.

Everyone is just thinking about staying alive, aren’t they.

Dieyu seemed like she wanted to help, but she didn’t actually speak, her brow furrowing slightly.

In the previous game, at least Solo Stan had struck up a conversation and brought him into the fold.

Even if his ultimate goal was his own survival and he had even pushed Yi Mo when facing Twilight…

At the very least, he hadn’t shown such blatant malice.

The Guanyin Jade Pendant was currently hanging around Yi Mo’s neck.

Solo Stan’s words echoed in Yi Mo’s mind.

Actually, this is only my third game, so we’re in the same boat.

But try not to look too incompetent, or being targeted will be dangerous.

He had intentionally molded an expressionless face and left his bangs long because he didn’t want to stand out too much in this game or be targeted.

But the look of disgust on Unrivaled’s face told Yi Mo the naked truth.

He was hated, so they wanted him to die first.

“Heh, I hit the mark, didn’t I? Nothing to say for yourself?”

“Hahaha, you piece of trash, just wait to die!”

“Fuck!”

Unrivaled’s arrogant words echoed in Yi Mo’s ears.

A black flame began to ignite in Yi Mo’s heart, thoroughly washing over his entire body.

Oh…

This game wasn’t about finding the opposing camp to eliminate them at all.

It was…

As long as I don’t die, that’s enough.

“You… kid…”

“Can you kill people?”

Yi Mo lowered his head.

His low, raspy voice sounded as if it were coming from hell itself, causing Unrivaled to suddenly feel a chill over his entire body.

He couldn’t help but take a few steps back before shouting back defiantly.

“What are you talking about!”

“I’m a good person! How could I kill people!”

“You’re the Werewolf! Don’t think a low-class trick like that will make me take the bait!”

“I bet you’re the one who can kill people!”

“You Werewolf!”

He stared fixedly at Yi Mo.

And Yi Mo?

Upon hearing those words, he covered half of his face with one hand and suddenly raised his head, laughing loudly.

“Hahaha… Hahaha…”

The gloomy, raspy laughter echoed through the ancient Mountain Forest Village.

It made the hearts of those around him turn cold, and they instinctively distanced themselves from him.

Yi Mo tilted his head back high.

His left eye was now visible through his bangs.

Along with his morbid excitement, a Red Blood Moon actually appeared in his pupil, looking terrifying.

Then, he looked down from above, gazing at the already frightened Unrivaled as if he were looking at an ant.

“Yes.”

“I can kill people.”

Cold.

Like a demon from hell.

Yi Mo was clearly laughing, yet there was no expression on his face.

“So, how about I kill you?”

Unrivaled was so terrified that he backed up a few more steps.

His heel happened to strike a stone, and he fell backward directly into a mud pit.

Covered in filth and pale-faced, he looked at Yi Mo and stammered.

“You… you… you…”

He wanted to call him a Werewolf.

But Yi Mo’s words kept echoing in his mind.

How about I kill you?

It repeated over and over, making his whole body tremble until finally…

He pissed himself in fear.

***

Self-Destruction.

Yi Mo had figured it out.

Since he couldn’t hide quietly and had become the focus of attention…

Fine, then he would become the ultimate focus.

He would become so prominent that they would look at him and not dare to touch him.

Yi Mo’s move was incredibly effective.

Not only was Unrivaled terrified enough to fall in the mud, but even the people around him were stunned, looking at him warily as if he were a mass murderer.

The eldest, Old Six Du, didn’t back away.

He stroked his beard and said,

“Young man, Shiba Daye, are you admitting you’re a Werewolf then?”

“I’m old, and it hasn’t been easy to live this long. Don’t come looking for me today.”

“You young people should settle your own grudges yourselves.”

His words made Unrivaled even more terrified.

He roared at Old Six Du,

“You old geezer! You were the one egging things on just now!”

Then he quickly turned to Yi Mo and said,

“Brother, I was just talking nonsense earlier.”

“I know, you’re definitely not a Werewolf!”

“Ai, it’s all a misunderstanding! A misunderstanding!”

As Unrivaled looked at Yi Mo now, that gloomy, expressionless face was terrifying, just like the boss of a gang.

The more he looked, the more he felt this person was not to be trifled with and was actually incredibly powerful.

He immediately backed down.

In reality, Yi Mo just had a stony, expressionless face.

Unrivaled had simply been scared out of his wits by Yi Mo’s words, creating the illusion that Yi Mo was some kind of powerhouse.

Yi Mo lowered his head, his eyes once again half-hidden by his bangs.

He glared disdainfully at Unrivaled.

“Those words of yours… they didn’t sound like nonsense.”

Unrivaled said,

“No, no, no, I was talking trash. Big brother, I was wrong.”

“Give me a break!”

Although the yellow-haired thug, Unrivaled, had begged for mercy, there were others among the group who were more straightforward and hot-blooded.

A man nicknamed Great Emperor Zhenwu stepped forward.

He was in his 30s, over 1.85 meters tall, and heavily built with thick muscles.

He looked either like a manual laborer or a bodybuilding coach.

He said,

“What are you afraid of him for!”

“Others might be scared, but I’m not!”

The woman nicknamed Pikachu, who weighed over 200 pounds and had a very aggressive look, also stepped forward.

“Right! Can he kill all of us?”

“You might be able to kill tonight, but the Witch also has an Antidote to save people.”

“Everyone will still be alive tomorrow, but you’ll definitely be voted out!”

Upon hearing this, Yi Mo gave them both a disdainful look.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, he walked directly toward the large circular wooden table nearby.

He pulled out a wooden chair, turned it around, and sat down arrogantly, crossing his legs.

He looked at the crowd and said,

“Heh. Did I ever say I was a Werewolf?”

Following Yi Mo’s words, everyone was stunned.

Good grief, if you’re not a Werewolf and you’re still this arrogant, you’re asking for death.

Knowing he wasn’t going to be targeted to death, Unrivaled felt his confidence returning.

He crawled out of the mud pit.

Even though he had pissed himself, he was so dirty that no one could tell.

His voice was still a bit shaky, but he spoke up.

“You… you… didn’t you say you could kill people!”

Snap.

Yi Mo snapped his fingers, then made a finger gun gesture aimed at Unrivaled.

“Who said only a Werewolf can kill people?”

“Allow me to introduce myself. I am Shiba Daye, 20 years old. Occupation: shut-in, trash, otaku.”
