Chapter 84: Chapter 82: The Meaning of Rules and Feast

"You’re okay?"

Xiao Yi saw Sheraya stagger suddenly, afraid he would fall, and hurried to support him.

"I’m fine..." Sheraya showed a forced smile, "I was just stunned by my own stupidity. I didn’t expect that the correct approach to clearing this instance had been revealed right from the start."

Since the instance hadn’t ended yet, Sheraya had to think, to consider how to clear this instance.

But what a Fake God was, Sheraya had no clue at all; he could only ask Xiao Yi:

"Xiao Yi, what do you think this Fake God could be?"

"Fake God?" Xiao Yi replied, "You’re talking about the fake in disguise, right? Isn’t that just pretending to be a god?"

Xiao Yi thought to himself that such a simple question couldn’t possibly stump him, he had scored 200 points in Chinese after all!

"Pretending to be a god? I see!" Sheraya had an epiphany! "As expected of Xiao Yi, you saw through everything at a glance! Pretending to be a god, that is undoubtedly what a human would do, that is to say, someone pretended to be a god and hosted this Feast!"

Thoughts in Sheraya’s mind began to surge like a breached dam!

He immediately continued reading the content of the rule document.

"Go seek, seek out the real enemy hidden among the people! It’s not about playing Wolvesville to find the werewolf, but to find the real enemy, we’ve been going in the wrong direction from the start! Based on the rules that clearly differentiate between human and wolf, excluding the Chosen One, the Fake God has to be one of the seven villagers! No wonder being killed by a werewolf doesn’t count as forced death; it seems this is a way for the Fake God to protect themselves, the Fake God could resurrect even if killed by a werewolf!"

Sheraya then looked at Xiao Yi again, "Xiao Yi, you told me to consider the meaning beyond the rules, and now I have found the answer."

"Oh... Oh." Xiao Yi thought to himself, there’s such a thing?

Then, Sheraya told Xiao Yi his conclusion.

"These eleven rules are not truly aimed at making us play Wolvesville. That’s just the surface, the real purpose is to drive us into madness! Insanity! This is also the origin of the Feast’s name!"

"You see, these rules give humans and werewolves the choice to kill or not to kill, if we were forced to kill, then we would have a reason in our hearts, thinking it’s an unavoidable thing, it’s all forced by God, and we could kill with a clear conscience. However, giving us a choice makes us incredibly conflicted."

"Moreover, while seemingly giving us a choice, it also limits us to five days, not killing renders survival impossible, in reality, there is no choice. It forces us to kill helplessly amidst our struggle, and then, the human side, hesitating whether to vote on executing someone, will also opt to kill due to fear and hatred of the werewolves, thus driving both humans and wolves towards madness."

"Not only that, having only five days creates a sure-win strategy for the human side, which is not to vote. This way, the werewolves will become extremely anxious, desperately trying to figure out what to do. It’s natural for them to frantically search for loopholes in the rules under such anxiety, and then, the werewolves will discover they can sacrifice teammates and the hidden rule to kill during the day. It’s easy for hope amidst despair to drive people mad. Once the werewolves find the hidden rules, they’ll definitely think of taking risks, stepping further into madness."

"Moreover, when people realize werewolves can kill during the day, they will certainly panic, and due to fear, they will question everyone around them, and because of fear, they will make crazy decisions. Add to that, humans indeed have means to deal with werewolves; the rules provide indirect methods, so it’s normal for humans to make mad decisions as well."

"Even if humans and werewolves stop playing Wolvesville and start killing each other in chaos, it doesn’t matter, because the game Wolvesville itself forces everyone to think desperately, to question everyone around them, to gradually go mad amidst betrayal and regret, just like the rules, it’s merely a means. All these methods serve the sole purpose of plunging everyone into madness!"

"Somebody, for some reason, wants to use the Feast and the rules to drive us mad, that is the meaning beyond the rules that I’ve deduced."

"..." After Sheraya finished speaking, Xiao Yi somewhat understood and nodded, saying, "I see, so that’s how it is, I think I get it."

Sheraya asked again: "But even if we know the meaning beyond the rules, I still can’t be sure who the Fake God is... Xiao Yi, you said you’ve seen the Wolf God, right? Even if the Feast isn’t the doing of the Wolf God, the Wolf God should know some truth. Xiao Yi, do you know where the Wolf God is?"

"I know, it’s right..." As Xiao Yi was speaking, he suddenly paused, then changed his words and said, "No need to go looking, it’s coming here on its own."

"Did it come by itself?" Sheraya followed Xiao Yi’s gaze, and sure enough, she saw a huge white wolf figure.

Xiao Yi’s battle had calmed down, and only then did the Wolf God dare to show itself.

"Is that the Wolf God?" Sheraya couldn’t help feeling somewhat moved.

The Wolf God walked up to them, sat down in front of the two, and said nothing, just staring straight at Sheraya.

Sheraya instantly understood what the Wolf God meant.

The Wolf God lacked the ability to communicate with people; it was hoping that Sheraya could grant it this ability.

God was created by humans and would naturally change because of them.

"I understand." Sheraya nodded her head and made a wish in her heart, "Wolf God, please tell us the truth about the Feast."

Subsequently, the Wolf God actually spoke in a human voice, "Just as I thought, the faith inside your heart could match that of tens of thousands of devout believers, perhaps even surpassing them!"

"Oh! It talks!" Xiao Yi exclaimed in surprise.

The Wolf God could tell that Xiao Yi didn’t believe in supernatural forces and was somewhat surprised to see that although Xiao Yi was astonished, he wasn’t taken aback.

"Aren’t you surprised I can talk?" the Wolf God asked.

"Huh? What’s there to be surprised about?" Xiao Yi said, "I often see some particularly smart dogs that can match a human’s IQ, and everyone says not to delay the child from attending college. If dogs can go to college, it wouldn’t be strange for a hundred-year-old dog to talk, would it?"

The Wolf God and Sheraya both fell silent for a moment.

The Wolf God didn’t want to explain anything about vocal organs or the like; it knew Xiao Yi wouldn’t listen. But there was one thing the Wolf God had to correct!

"I am not a dog! I’m a wolf!"

"Alright, alright." Xiao Yi responded nonchalantly and reached out to pat the chin of the Wolf God he had punched before, "Also, my apologies for hitting you earlier."

"Woo~" The Wolf God immediately showed an expression of enjoyment.

Watching this scene, both Xiao Yi and Sheraya couldn’t help but think: Isn’t this just like a dog?

Then, the Wolf God said, "Actually, I’m the one who should be apologizing. Attacking out of the blue, anyone would have retaliated."

Sheraya asked, "Wolf God, why did you attack Xiao Yi?"

"To protect the people of the village," the Wolf God answered.

"I see." Sheraya nodded, "We are werewolves; it’s no wonder you attacked us."

"No, let me finish," the Wolf God continued. "I wanted to protect the villagers from the human who was usurping my Divinity, and the reason I attacked you... was because you werewolves are the true sacrifices."
