The Target of Public Criticism

The prompt for continuing the card draw followed.

Yimo skipped it directly.

He couldn't imagine what kind of person would spend 500 points to draw another card that was likely to be blank.

After all, this was almost equivalent to the points earned in a game.

Of course, Yimo hadn't played many games yet and didn't know the average points awarded for a win.

Yimo immediately looked around.

His main goal was to find his girlfriend for this round.

In his un-unlocked state, he didn't know who his girlfriend was.

Looking around, among the 11 people besides himself, there were 4 women.

The first one was named "Pikachu." She wasn't cute at all; in fact, she was quite arrogant and domineering. Her weight was comparable to two Yimos. Currently, she was looking up at the void. Yimo immediately dismissed her, thinking the system wouldn't be that perverted.

The second one was named "Naughty Cat." She had a relatively petite figure and was wearing a small white ruffled blouse with a beige ankle-length skirt adorned with many small floral patterns. She was also looking at the void, but her face was slightly flushed, and she was hunching her shoulders, appearing very shy. She kept glancing around.

Considering that his girlfriend's Alter Ego stat for this round was a perfect 100%, Yimo didn't think it was her either.

The third one was named "Village Chief." She was wearing black sweatpants and a black zippered tracksuit, with a black t-shirt visible through the unzipped front. She looked like a tomboy and was likely under 1.6 meters tall, appearing even smaller than the previous girl. She had medium-length black hair that reached her neck, which looked like it hadn't been styled at all. She had an ordinary appearance with a few small freckles on her face. She was looking down with no expression, seemingly lost in thought.

To put it simply, Yimo felt she was like himself – perhaps a shut-in who might also be a bit chuunibyou.

But because she was too unremarkable, Yimo didn't think it was her.

The last remaining one was named "Dieyu." Her attire was very fashionable, a combination of a cute gauze skirt and a small shawl. A hint of perfectly placed snow-white was visible at her chest, and she wore a red gemstone necklace. As Yimo was observing the surroundings.

She happened to be looking at the people around her as well. When she saw Yimo looking at her, she tilted her head slightly, revealing a 100% lethal smile. Her slender fingers brushed a strand of hair from her ear, tucking it behind. Her orange high ponytail swayed slightly, and the small bell bracelet on her wrist jingled pleasantly. She gently squeezed her small earlobe.

Her smile was full of meaning, as if saying, "Little brother, wanna get to know me?"

Yimo was momentarily stunned. The other party raised her hand and waved at him.

Overall, she was a very eye-catching girl exuding charm!

Yimo slightly lowered his head and responded with a nod.

Could it be her?

Just as Yimo was thinking this, the system's somewhat mechanical loli voice echoed in his mind. Lines and lines of the current game rules began to appear before his eyes.

It was much more complex than the previous Murderer game!

『Game Name: Werewolf (Cupid Game)』

『Game Type: Survival.』

『Number of Participants: 12.』

『Game Rules: 1. The game is divided into two factions: the Villager faction and the Werewolf faction. The Villager faction is divided into two types: Villagers and special roles.

If all Werewolves are eliminated, the Villager faction wins. If all Villagers or special roles of the Villager faction are eliminated, the Werewolf faction wins. Eliminated players do not share victory rewards.

2. If the couple players consist of one person from the Villager faction and one from the Werewolf faction, the couple and Cupid form a third faction. If both the Villager faction and the Werewolf faction are eliminated, and the couple survives, the third faction wins. Eliminated players do not share victory rewards.

3. The Werewolf faction can kill one player at night based on system prompts. Other factions cannot perform normal attacks on other non-designated players outside of the punishment time.

4. The Village Chief is elected before the first night. During the daily trial meeting, they have 1.5 votes for judgment, while other players have 1 vote.

If the highest vote count results in a tie during the trial meeting, the tied players enter a second trial meeting and lose their voting rights for that round. If another tie occurs, no one is punished that day.

The player with the most votes in the daily trial meeting enters the punishment phase and is executed. If the execution is unsuccessful, the executed player wins the game, and all other players die.

5. Operate according to system prompts.

6. Penalty for the losing faction: Death.

7. Game card abilities take precedence over current game rules.』

『Prophet: Special Role. Can verify one player as a Villager or Werewolf each night.』

『Witch: Special Role. Has one antidote and one poison. Can choose to use one after nightfall. The antidote can revive one player. The poison can kill one player. The revived player forgets all memories of that night. The Wolf King and Hunter lose their abilities when poisoned.』

『Idiot: Special Role. If they receive the sole highest number of votes in the trial meeting, their identity is revealed, they lose their voting rights, and they are not punished.』

『Hunter: Special Role. Can kill one player after death.』

『Werewolf: Werewolf Faction, 2 people. Cannot commit suicide.』

『Wolf King: Werewolf Faction. Can kill one player upon death.』

『Thief: Special Faction. Within the first minute of the game, two role cards will randomly appear. You can choose one to start the game with. Unchosen role cards disappear and will not appear again in this game. If the chosen cards include a Werewolf faction role card, you can only choose the Werewolf faction role card.』

『Cupid: Special Faction. Knows their identity within the first minute of the game and chooses two players to become a couple.

If both lovers are from the Werewolf faction, Cupid's victory condition is the same as the Werewolves. If both lovers are from the Villager faction, Cupid's victory condition is the same as the Villagers.

If one lover is from the Werewolf faction and the other from the Villager faction, the couple and Cupid form a third faction.

Lovers share the same fate of death.』

『Villager: Villager Faction, 5 people. None.』

『Game Introduction: This is a primitive village that has been in conflict with werewolves for generations. Even when people from the neighboring village advised them to leave, they did not abandon their homes. The werewolves and the villagers living here will soon engage in a decisive battle. Surely one side will win, won't they?』

The game rules were too complicated, and even though the system's loli voice had finished explaining, everyone was still basically looking at the rules.

Yimo, on the other hand, after a brief glance at the rules, quickly lowered their head slightly, letting their bangs cover their eyes, and began to observe the other players, trying to discern something from them.

As an experienced Werewolf player, Yimo believed that the moment everyone received their role cards, their emotions would reveal some information.

As the system began to distribute the role cards, Yimo didn't even look at their own.

During this time, Yimo took in everyone's expressions.

To their surprise, Dieyu on the opposite side was still staring at them.

Yimo wanted to look away, but the other person's next action prevented them from doing so.

Dieyu gently pulled her small shawl, then made a heart shape with her hands beneath the shawl, on that patch of snow-white. She smiled slyly, looking incredibly cute, like a little devil, and gazed meaningfully at Yimo. Then, one of her hands secretly formed a gun shape, shaking it as if firing a shot.

"Biu~"

Her lips parted slightly, as if blowing a kiss to Yimo, and she winked her right eye.

It was so electrifying that Yimo was almost swayed.

If she were my girlfriend, she'd be 100 times better than Qin Muse!

After a moment of distraction, Yimo stopped looking at her, to avoid being noticed by others. They looked up at their role card and were instantly stunned.

"This..."

A hoarse voice emerged from their throat, as if squeezed out, carrying a hint of creepiness.

Although their face was expressionless, it had clearly darkened considerably. Yimo subconsciously lowered their head slightly, falling into thought, the corners of their mouth turned down.

Heh, you damn system, you really do... take good care of me!!!

Just then, while most of the surrounding players were still bewildered, the system directly announced the start of the game.

The moment the announcement came, an incredibly arrogant voice instantly captured everyone's attention.

"I know who the wolf is!!!"

It was a young man in his early twenties with bright yellow hair, dressed somewhat flashily, with a hint of roguishness. Since the game had already started, the nickname above his head had disappeared, so no one knew his name.

His words not only drew the attention of everyone around them, but even Yimo, who had been looking down with a dark expression, subconsciously looked up.

Then, they saw the yellow-haired youth, looking smug and indignant, staring at them.

In the next moment, he pointed at Yimo's face, the corner of his mouth curling up slightly, and loudly accused, "It's him!"

"He's definitely the wolf, no doubt about it!!!"

ps. This is one of the most complex setups in Werewolf. It's okay if you don't understand the rules. Whether you've played Werewolf before or not, Jiaqi will write this game so that everyone can understand it. Just keep reading; there's no need to go back and study the rules.

The rules themselves have also been partially modified. If you notice anything unusual later on, you can always come back and review the rules.
