Self-Introduction and Profession

Lin Yu knew that easing the awkward and tense atmosphere was instinctive for some people.

But...

This was a "Werewolf" game, and a Werewolf game where people could die.

Did this kind of game really need someone to "regulate the atmosphere"?

What's more, the short young man hadn't spoken until now, his eyes darting around. Now that he finally spoke, it was with such a flippant joke.

Lin Yu instinctively felt something was off about him.

However, this was just Lin Yu's intuition.

He wasn't so quick to judge that this short young man was the werewolf based on intuition alone.

After all, the other person might just be a plain idiot.

But regardless, this harmonious atmosphere was not something Lin Yu wanted to see.

So, he cleared his throat and said, "But we have no choice but to play this unfortunate game now. Let's discuss how to play this game's 'strategy'."

The gentle and frail woman heard Lin Yu's words and softly said, "You mentioned the box earlier... I remember the letter said that red boxes could only be opened by werewolves. That means if we see who opens a red box, won't we know who the werewolf is?"

The scar-faced man snorted, "The werewolf will know that too and definitely won't be stupid enough to open a box in front of everyone!"

"Then we can watch them secretly!" the woman retorted softly.

The scar-faced man's expression turned grim. "What the hell is that stinking bitch mumbling about!"

Lin Yu quickly tried to smooth things over and change the subject. "Okay, there's no need to discuss so much now. In a game like Werewolf, it's impossible to identify the hidden roles in the first discussion – only as the game progresses, by observing everyone's actions, can we slowly identify the werewolf."

The middle-aged woman was taken aback and said, "But if that's the case, people might die."

As the game progresses, the werewolf would be exposed...

But this would come at the cost of lives!

Lin Yu heard this and slowly said, "That's why this game is called the 'Death Game' – besides our lives, we have nothing else."

"Even these lives are already 'borrowed'!"

Everyone at the round table fell silent upon hearing Lin Yu's words.

The atmosphere, which had slightly eased just moments ago, became heavy once more.

That's right...

Although it was called a "game," this was no child's play.

They were a group of dead people fighting for a chance to "live again"!

This was perhaps the most brutal competition in the world.

An uneasy atmosphere permeated the room.

Meanwhile, Lin Yu, who also wore a solemn expression, felt no emotional turmoil within.

"Very good, the current atmosphere... should be enough for some of them to realize that besides their 'lives,' they also have a 'reliance'."

Lin Yu's previous words were intentional.

He did not want to see a harmonious and relaxed atmosphere.

Lin Yu needed to guide everyone to think under this serious atmosphere!

To achieve this, he had even used some theatrical recitation techniques in his speech just now to enhance its impact.

As expected, in this somber atmosphere, the little fatty, who had been active earlier, thought of something again and said with some surprise:

"Wait a minute, maybe the situation isn't that bad – besides our lives, we also have 'professions'!"

"Before coming here, I obtained a profession, and the auntie who spoke earlier also said that the blood-written message she saw also mentioned 'professions'."

"So, you should all have received your professions! These will definitely be helpful for the game!"

The little fatty said excitedly.

The square-faced man nodded slightly upon hearing this. "We can take turns introducing our professions and abilities first, and based on everyone's abilities, we might be able to formulate a more reasonable game strategy."

Lin Yu felt much more relaxed hearing this conversation.

Things were developing exactly as he had expected.

After obtaining the "Con Artist" profession and entering this place, Lin Yu had been thinking about how to use his "abilities."

After some simple consideration, he had made a judgment.

That was to disguise himself as other professions!

But this required him to listen to what the other people's professions and abilities were.

The others also had a change of expression upon hearing this.

Indeed, they still had the trump card of their professions!

Seeing that no one objected, the square-faced man spoke first. "I'll go first. My name is Yu Longguo, my profession is 'Soldier,' and my ability is: physical fitness multiplied by five."

His voice was full of confidence, indicating that this profession and ability were indeed simple, crude, and powerful.

The scar-faced man shot Yu Longguo a surprised glance, then a smile spread across his face. "I didn't expect there to be such a profession... very useful. Is it necessary to introduce names, though?"

"It is necessary, because this is a game where the Werewolf is bound to 'lie'," Yu Longguo said coldly to him. "So, stating some basic information in your self-introduction will also help me determine if you are lying."

The scar-faced man felt Yu Longguo's bad attitude and shrugged. "Alright, introducing ourselves isn't a big deal. My name is Bao Liu, and my profession is 'Thug'. My ability allows me to ignore one rule. Although my profession isn't as simple and crude as a Soldier's, don't provoke me lightly. I can ignore rules."

As he spoke, he gave everyone a sinister look.

Lin Yu observed these two. He noticed that the professions they obtained seemed to have a strong connection to who they were.

The man named Yu Longguo was strong, sturdy, and had a resolute face. His entire demeanor made him look like he was or had been a soldier.

In the Death game, his profession was also "Soldier."

And this scar-faced Bao Liu, from the very beginning, clearly exuded a rogueish aura, and his profession was "Thug"...

It was the turn of the middle-aged woman wearing glasses. She adjusted her glasses and spoke:

"My name is Xu Xiumei, and my profession is 'Teacher'. My ability allows me to obtain some relevant information within this game."

The others nodded slightly upon hearing this.

The "Teacher's" ability, while not sounding too powerful, still had a certain use.

Everyone pondered the function of each person's ability.

But only Lin Yu, upon hearing Xu Xiumei's profession, had a dawning realization.

"So it is like this..."

Although Xu Xiumei wasn't as obvious as Yu Longguo and Bao Liu, Lin Yu's careful observation could still tell...

She wore relatively plain clothes, had a habit of clearing her throat when speaking, and had thick calluses on her index finger and thumb.

The other party was likely indeed a "Teacher."

In other words...

The professions in this game are very likely to have a strong "correlation" with each person's real-life occupation!
