To keep the game fair, the Instance System had changed one rule-
Werewolf players could not directly know who their fellow Werewolves were.
Normally, in Werewolf, the three Werewolves knew exactly who their teammates were, allowing them to target members of the Good Team without hitting another Werewolf.
But if the three Werewolves knew one another's identities in this Werewolf instance, the Good Team players would have a much worse gaming experience.
The most obvious example was-
Che Quan and Jiang Cong were widely acknowledged as the team's top players.
If they drew Good Team cards, the three Werewolves, knowing one another's identities, would definitely kill one of those two on the first night to quickly weaken the Good Team.
That would undermine the fairness of the game.
Therefore, only one Werewolf could open their eyes each night and kill a player.
After the Werewolf was prompted to open their eyes, a brief silence passed.
The system's mechanical voice rang out again.
[Werewolf, please close your eyes.] [...] [Seer, please open your eyes. The player you wish to check is... Their identity is... Seer, please close your eyes.] [...] [Witch, please open your eyes. The player killed tonight is... Please choose whether to use your antidote or your poison. You may use only one potion per night, and each potion may be used only once... Witch, please close your eyes.] [...] [All right! Day has come. Please open your eyes! Player 9, Xie Deze, died last night. Please give your last words.]
At that announcement, everyone turned toward seat 9.
Jiang Cong was player 1, and player 9 sat two seats to his right.
To Xie Deze's right was player 8, Xuan Shuhui.
Xie Deze did not seem to know anyone there. He was a little surprised
