Chapter Summaries

Old Hord harvested organs for followers of an Ice and Snow Great God, but the Black-Clothed Men captured him and he vanished when fire failed to contain him. Wenren Sheng watched the Ice Wall Principal become entangled in the Civilization and planned to connect the worlds it occupied into a massive trap.

• Old Hord collected organs for several gentlemen and stored them in frost-covered boxes while recruiting them to worship the Ice and Snow Great God.
• Two Black-Clothed Men followed Old Hord, abducted him, and interrogated him about the god he served.
• Old Hord explained that the Ice and Snow Great God had appeared in his mind and that he recruited organ customers as followers.
• Old Hord began to freeze during interrogation, and when the men threw him into a lit fireplace, the flames went out and he disappeared.
• Wenren Sheng explained that he had deliberately drawn the Ice Wall Principal into the Civilization and planned to connect its occupied worlds so it could not abandon them.

Wenren Sheng summoned more than a hundred world consciousnesses and persuaded them to unite against the Disaster Anomaly Principal by creating connections between their worlds. He demonstrated his ability to sever and restore a world's link to the Main World, then began a plan that left Mage Lu Yan back in the nineteenth-century Civilization world.

• Wenren Sheng gathered over a hundred world consciousnesses and warned them that the Disaster Anomaly Principal could consume the traces sustaining their existence.
• Wenren Sheng proposed bundling the worlds together through connecting channels, and Little Illusion teased him for misleading the gathered worlds.

• Wenren Sheng told the worlds he had a plan for them to take part in, without revealing its details.
• Mage Lu Yan returned to the nineteenth-century Civilization world and found himself facing the familiar Civilization V interface and temple again.

Wenren Sheng opened portals to other worlds in a newly born nineteenth-century Civilization, and Radiation World monsters began emerging on an island. Reports of the threat spread, prompting military preparations and resistance to the Church’s authority, while the Pope prayed for a new Divine Edict and Lu Yan withheld divine favor.

• Wenren Sheng opened portals across the Civilization and placed the Radiation World portal on an island to give the people time to adapt.
• Ghouls emerged on the island, where wolves and crows killed the first ones before the remaining Ghouls encountered empowered animals and a deadly Deathclaw.
• A Naturalist discovered the monsters and alerted the Captain, whose crew used guns and a Maxim Gun to drive back the Ghouls and escape by ship.
• The Naturalist recorded the monsters, and news spread through the civilized world as officials called for military action and the major powers formed alliances.
• Secular forces resisted the Church’s call for a punitive expedition and kept their best troops at home.
• The Pope prayed for a Divine Edict, while Lu Yan observed without granting divine favor.

Radiated Ghouls and mutated cockroaches reached the southern mainland, prompting the Fortress Major to prepare for an attack. His fortress repelled a ghoul horde and a Deathclaw, but the monsters had proved stronger than expected.

• Radiated Ghouls and mutated cockroaches attacked a village, and a dozen survivors reached a nearby fortress to report the invasion.
• The Fortress Major trusted the survivors, sent a telegram, ordered evacuations, and prepared his troops and defenses; Wenren Sheng granted him Lucky 5.
• Several hundred ghouls reached the fortress, where soldiers shot them down with headshots after ordinary bullets failed to stop them.
• A five-meter-tall Deathclaw charged through the defenses and tore at a machine-gun port, but a Sniper killed it with an armor-piercing shot to its neck joint.

The fortress soldiers faced a vast swarm of Radiation Cockroaches and tried to hold them back while conserving ammunition. After the insects breached the ventilation shafts and attacked, the Major ordered the soldiers to rely on heavy weapons and block most of the vents as they waited for help from the rear.

• After the first battle, the Fortress Major worried that the soldiers had spent too much ammunition and ordered the defenses reinforced.
• Four days later, hundreds of thousands of Radiation Cockroaches approached, and the Major ordered the soldiers to fill the trenches with gasoline and seal the fortress openings.
• Most cockroaches went around the fortress, but the ones that stayed crossed the defenses and climbed the walls.
• When cockroaches began squeezing through the ventilation openings, the Major stationed soldiers at likely entrances and kept them fighting to delay the enemy.
• A soldier was bitten, cockroaches poured into the fortress, and the soldiers learned their ammunition might not last seven days.
• The Major ordered the soldiers to switch to axes and other heavy weapons, block all but one ventilation opening, and dig smaller vents the cockroaches could not enter.

The Major and his dwindling garrison endured radiation sickness, food shortages, and successive mutant attacks until a supply convoy brought food and Tranquility Water. The fortress was surrounded again, and days later merchants arrived with cargo, leaving the Major to face a new offer.

• Radiation Cockroaches consumed the fortress’s food, while sickness and unrest reduced the garrison to a little over eighty soldiers under the Major’s command.
• After holding out for more than a month, the Major received a supply convoy carrying food, ammunition, fuel, and Tranquility Water, which healed his radiation sickness and restored the soldiers’ morale.
• Mutated Hunting Dogs surrounded the fortress the next morning, but the soldiers drove most of them away, and the Major sent truck drivers and an escort toward the rear with several corpses for study.
• A herd of Two-Headed Cows arrived carrying cargo, and a merchant from XX Company called out offers of food, Bottle Caps, and other goods.

A Wasteland merchant traded with Major’s fortress, while a bulletproof Werewolf from the Werewolf Kill World appeared nearby and deceived the defenders. Two villagers warned Major that the Werewolf would become invincible after dark, and Major questioned them about the game as night approached.

• The Wasteland merchant opened a trading post after Major discovered radiation in the drinks, and Major sent a letter describing the Wasteland and its monsters.
• A green, wolf-headed Werewolf arrived, survived a sniper’s bullet, and claimed to be harmless while Wenren Sheng watched from afar.
• Major refused to let the Werewolf enter the fortress, gave him food and a tent, and unknowingly assigned him to act as a sentry and meat shield.
• Two villagers from the Werewolf Kill World arrived and warned Major that the Werewolf would become invincible and kill people after dark.
• Major asked the villagers to explain their world and Werewolf Kill, and they hurriedly began telling him as the sun went down.

Major discovered that one of the villagers was a Werewolf and tried to use a Werewolf Kill match to defeat the pair, but the game’s rules could not fully take effect in his world. He captured the Werewolves and later found a way to motivate his soldiers to keep playing: a match produced a bottle of rum.

• Major learned the rules of Werewolf Kill and realized that the villagers believed a Werewolf would kill someone if it survived the night.
• Major had soldiers shoot the second villager, revealing him as Werewolf B, and then confirmed that the first villager was not a Werewolf.
• Major tried to start a six-player match, but the rules failed to take effect, so he sent soldiers after the two fleeing Werewolves and captured them with a truck and a fishing net.
• A thousand reinforcements arrived, and four hundred soldiers escorted the Werewolves and the surviving villager away.
• Major made the soldiers play Werewolf Kill and kept adding rules until a match produced a bottle of rum, after which the soldiers eagerly played every day.

Major Soren’s fortress collapsed after the soldiers’ fear of werewolves destroyed their trust and discipline, and Soren was executed for abandoning his post. He revived as one of the Living Ones and entered the Werewolf Kill game, hoping to rebuild his life there.

• After werewolves killed soldiers at night, Major Soren’s men lost trust, deserted, and fell into chaos when the Mutant People of the Wasteland World attacked.
• Soren fled with his adjutant, was arrested, and was sentenced to death for abandoning his position and soldiers.
• Soren revived in a corpse pit and decided to go to the Radiation Wasteland, Werewolf Kill, where no one knew he had been executed.
• Soren joined a twelve-player beginner Werewolf Kill game and listened as the host explained its basic rules.

Soren discovered that he could see and hear the werewolves at night, giving him an unusual advantage as the Seer. He became Sheriff and exposed No. 1 as a wolf, but No. 1 claimed Hunter and the werewolves began plotting to kill Soren while No. 5 concealed his hook role.

• Soren inspected No. 8 and learned he was a Good Guy, then secretly watched Nos. 1, 2, 3, and 5 discuss their wolf strategy and plan to kill No. 9.
• The Witch, No. 8, saved No. 9, and Soren ran for Sheriff alongside Nos. 1, 6, 7, and 10.
• Soren claimed Seer, identified No. 1 as a wolf, and announced plans to inspect Nos. 2 and 7; No. 1 responded by claiming Hunter and calling Soren a fake Seer.
• Most players voted for Soren, who was elected Sheriff, and No. 3 immediately supported No. 1 without sound reasoning.
• No. 4 and No. 5 argued that No. 3 was linked to No. 1, and Soren chose No. 3 for elimination while urging the Guardian to protect him.
• No. 5 privately recognized that No. 9 was likely the Hunter and planned to use the hidden special roles to eliminate the Good Guys' key players.

Soren’s team gradually eliminated the Werewolves, but the last one still had a chance to win after killing Soren. No. 7 identified No. 5 from his speech, and the good side won.

• Soren inspected No. 9 and learned he was the Hunter, while the Werewolves chose No. 6 as their next target.
• The Witch poisoned No. 1, No. 6 died, and No. 2 self-destructed, leaving No. 5 as the last Werewolf.
• No. 5 killed Soren, who revived and passed the Sheriff Badge to No. 7 before the good players discussed their roles and the remaining suspects.
• No. 11 explained the Werewolf’s possible path to victory, while No. 5 tried to persuade No. 7 to reconsider the elimination order.
• No. 7 recognized that No. 5’s speech was an attempt to be placed last, and the players unanimously voted No. 5 out, giving the good side the victory.

Wenren Sheng gave Soren more cheats, and Soren used them to win two Werewolf Kill games, including a high-stakes match where he led the wolves to victory. The other players suspected he had an ability to bewitch people’s hearts, but his identity remained hidden behind masks.

• After Soren won his first game, Wenren Sheng restored his lives and gave him the cheats Trusted by Others and Low Presence.
• Soren claimed to be the Seer in his second game, identified the wolves, and led the good side to a two-round victory.
• Seeking a greater challenge, Soren entered a high-end game where losing would cost him a leg and received the White Wolf King role.
• Soren told his fellow wolves to kill No. 12, then claimed Seer and persuaded the players to vote out the Guardian.
• The wolves killed the Hunter, who shot the real Seer, giving Soren’s team a swift victory and costing the losing players a leg.
• During the review, the Hunter and Guardian suspected that Soren had an ability that made others believe him.

Soren used his supernatural abilities to dominate several Werewolf games, but an opponent with abilities exposed the limits of his cheats and led him to help the wolves win. Wenren Sheng judged that Soren had lost the will to overcome challenges himself, then turned his attention to another potential hero from the Civilization World.

• After the players agreed Soren had cheated with supernatural abilities, the losing good players lost legs and the Werewolves gained physical enhancements.
• Soren revealed the wolf slots as a Villager, and the Seer confirmed his claims, helping the good side eliminate every wolf.
• Soren kept winning games by revealing roles and swaying the players, growing strong enough to rival the strongest Strongman from his original world.
• A panda-masked player noticed Soren could see at night, and the wolves stayed inactive; Soren relied on discussion and backed a supposed Hunter who was actually a wolf.
• The Werewolves won, and Soren complained that he needed stronger cheats while Wenren Sheng concluded that he had stopped relying on his own abilities.
• Wenren Sheng turned his attention to another person from the Civilization World, a disabled, landless farmer who had gone to the Radiation World.
