Chapter 93: Chapter 93: Can’t Let Go of the Rooster, Can’t Catch the Eagle (Two in One)

"I’m going to poison player number 12,"

Liu Zheng said.

The reason was simple; player number 12 did not take off the witch’s garb during his daytime speech.

Thus, Liu Zheng could only assume that player number 12 genuinely knew that someone had been killed last night, and the killer was him.

Who else other than the witch would know where the correct knife wound was?

Only a werewolf.

If number 12 was really a good guy wearing a disguise and he guessed the knife wound correctly, then it was his own fault.

The identity of a witch is not so easy to impersonate, plus, a witch who has used up her potion has no need to block a knife for him.

No sooner had his words ended than the scene in front of Liu Zheng drastically changed.

He arrived in front of a small hut and then uncontrollably opened the window.

Inside, player number 12 was dozing off in a chair.

Liu Zheng took out a purple potion vial and gently shook it.

The compounds inside mixed thoroughly, and the mouth of the vial emitted billowing black smoke.

He blew into the vial, and copious amounts of black smoke filled the room.

The black smoke formed the face of a Demon and swallowed player number 12 whole.

He suddenly opened his eyes, which had turned as pitch-black as the poison smoke.

Player number 12 grabbed his throat, emitting a silent scream.

Liu Zheng couldn’t see his expression, but from the frequency of the mask’s trembling, he knew how much pain he was in.

After a dozen seconds, player number 12 released his throat and instead grabbed at the mask on his face.

The veins on his hands bulged from the effort, yet he couldn’t budge the mask at all, only managing to leave behind trails of blood in vain.

Finally, he ceased his struggles.

In the black water that the flesh dissolved into, only a mask remained.

"What a tragedy,"

Liu Zheng said with pity.

If you’re not strong, don’t randomly wear disguises. Look, you’re dead now.

He closed the window and walked towards his own house.

The moonlight shone on him, casting a long red demonic shadow behind him.

Once back in the house, a strong wave of fatigue hit him, and Liu Zheng fell into a deep sleep.

"Daybreak has come, players please open your eyes,"

When he was awakened by the host’s voice, he found himself already standing at the door.

The other players did the same, including player number 12 who he had poisoned the day before.

All players tacitly sat down in front of the town square statue, waiting for the host to announce the events of the previous night.

"Last night, players number 12 and 5 both died. There are no last words,"

As soon as the host finished speaking, player number 12 dissolved into a pool of black water, and player number 5 turned into a pile of broken remnants.

A double death, what a pity.

If the guard had protected the right person, then the good side could have almost declared victory.

Of course, Liu Zheng knew that not every good fortune could be his, so he wasn’t very upset.

"Triggering the second round of random divine punishment: Extinction."

"After this round’s vote to select the player to be executed, the two closest surviving players to him will also be exiled."

"Please, sheriff, choose the order of speaking for this round."

Fuck!

As soon as the host finished speaking, all players immediately shook in shock.

This second round of divine punishment is too terrifying. If the vote goes bad, both werewolves and villagers could directly have a bloodbath.

After the sheriff chose the speaking order, the players spoke in turn.

There’s no need to elaborate on the speaking process, essentially, they just accused each other of being a werewolf.

As for players number 9 and 11, their statements were very consistent; they both demanded that player number 3’s sheriff’s badge be torn off.

Essentially, it doesn’t make a big difference who gets called out in this round.

The chances of two or three werewolves being connected are not high.

No matter who gets called out, the werewolves will profit, it’s just a matter of how many they gain.

One can only say that this round’s divine punishment really plays with people’s minds, almost like the host is intentionally balancing the situation.

After a moment of urgent thinking, Liu Zheng relaxed his brows.

In an extremely unfavorable situation, he still found the best solution.

"Player number 8, speak. Now, isn’t the only chance to win to vote out player number 10?"

His voice was resolute.

"Whether player number 9 or 11 is the True Prophet, one of them must be a werewolf, right?"

"Since player number 10 has already claimed to be a villager, the worst outcome of executing him would be losing one villager, one deity, and one werewolf."

"At best, it would straight up be one villager for two werewolves, a stable profit without loss."

"So, this round doesn’t have to concern whether player number 3 is the True Prophet or whether he has checked someone; just unanimously vote out player number 10 and it’s done."

"Player number 10, rest in peace; we’ll avenge you,"

"Speaking finished."

Liu Zheng concluded this round of talking.

Because anyone with clear eyes knew that his plan was the most reasonable for the good side.

Anyone who argued against it had to be a werewolf.

Entering the voting and execution phase, nearly everyone voted for player number 10, including himself.

Only player number 9 was different. He still voted for player number 3.

"That concludes the daytime session. In two hours, we enter the night,"

As soon as the host finished speaking, three gallows rose from the ground, hanging players number 9, 10, and 11 in midair.

"Hiss~"

Watching their painful struggle, Liu Zheng felt that everyone who played Werewolf must be somewhat sick.

The death execution is fake, but the death experience is real.

If you come here often, wouldn’t you have to die several times every day?

But considering this world is already abnormal, he suddenly felt it was normal again.

Looking at the other players enjoying their death scenes, Liu Zheng shook his head and returned to the carpenter’s cabin.

The big rooster was eating sweet potatoes.

It was more like playing while eating.

It chased the sweet potatoes all around, leaving pieces of sweet potato skins and crumbs all over the cabin.

Liu Zheng unceremoniously picked it up and smacked its bottom a few times.

"Cluck! What are you doing?"

The big rooster cried out in dissatisfaction.

It tried to peck at Liu Zheng’s hand but he agilely dodged it.

"Just eat properly, don’t make a mess everywhere. I can’t deal with Napoleon, but I can certainly deal with you."

"My master wouldn’t care how I eat."

The big rooster said.

"That’s why he left, he was driven away by you."

Liu Zheng retorted sarcastically.

"Not true, I don’t want to talk to you anymore."

The big rooster struggled angrily, forcing him to let go.

Then, it walked straight to the kitchen and returned to its nest.

Liu Zheng ignored it, as he had to consider the situation.

Now, players 1, 5, 9, 10, 11, and 12 were all dead.

The surviving players were 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, and 8.

It was known that one werewolf must be among players 9 and 11, it was very likely that players 1 and 12 were werewolves, and players 5 and 10 were probably good people.

Thus, the best scenario was that there was still one werewolf, and that werewolf was most likely player 3.

The worst scenario was that there were still three werewolves.

Normally, if there were still three werewolves, the good people had already lost.

However, considering the presence of the Divine Favor Card and the punishment mechanism, a turnaround was still possible.

Moreover, this game was not just Werewolf; the key to victory could very well lie outside the voting.

Thinking this, Liu Zheng walked to the kitchen and knocked strongly on the wooden planks of the basement.

"Want to go find your master?"

He said.

"Want to go."

A few seconds later, the big rooster pried open the wooden planks and said in a dazed manner.

"Then let’s go."

The activity time was only two hours, and the forest was vast.

Liu Zheng picked up the big rooster and walked out of the cabin.

Immediately, he frowned as he saw someone.

Players 2 and 6 were waiting at the door for him.

In the shadows, a few more gazes flickered hiddenly.

Players 2 and 6 just watched Liu Zheng and immediately walked behind him.

Their intentions were clear; they wanted to move together with him.

But Liu Zheng did not want that.

Suddenly, he pointed in one direction, and all the players instinctively looked there.

Then, Liu Zheng started to sprint.

Having been revived by a potion, this witch’s body had become much stronger.

By the time the other players realized what had happened, he had already run a good distance.

Of course, they wouldn’t just let him escape like that and immediately chased after him.

But with that initial advantage, they were always a few steps behind Liu Zheng.

Actually, doing this might expose his identity, but Liu Zheng no longer cared.

A witch who had used up two potions was no different from an ordinary villager.

Moreover, he held a Divine Favor Card on his person: Unstable Compound, the more he exposed his identity, the less the werewolves dared to kill him.

Liu Zheng didn’t know if werewolves’ physical abilities would weaken during the day, but even if they didn’t, they wouldn’t dare to follow him too closely as that would expose them.

As the distance between the two parties grew, when Liu Zheng reached the entrance of the forest, the other players were already tens of meters behind.

Facing the gloomy forest path, he did not hesitate to dive into it.

The players who arrived later looked at each other and then dispersed.

Some followed Liu Zheng into the forest, while others returned to the village.

Of course, this was none of Liu Zheng’s concern.

He was now standing at a crossroads in his life.

Eight branching paths unfolded before Liu Zheng, each looking exactly the same.

Clearly, there had only been one straight path when he exited the forest before.

Of course, things like spatial folding weren’t really surprising in this world.

"Hey, it’s your turn to exert some effort now."

Liu Zheng put the big rooster down on the ground.

"Exert what effort?"

The big rooster looked clueless.

"Your master said you could find him."

"I’m just a chicken, not a hunting dog."

The big rooster showed no inclination to lead the way and instead started looking for bugs in the grass.

"Could the contents of the letter really be false?"

As Liu Zheng pondered this, a dark shadow suddenly descended from the sky.

The big rooster had no time to react before it was scooped up by sharp claws and lifted into the air.

???

So the big rooster was the bait, and someone else was meant to lead the way, eh?

Watching the swiftly ascending owl, he quickly followed.
