Half an hour passed before Shen Zhiyi had mastered one of the moves.
Her progress wasn't very fast; she mainly wanted to become more familiar with the moves so she could use them effectively.
After practicing for another two hours, Shen Zhiyi finally stopped and put away the Moon Gazing Spear and the spear technique.
After the training, I was covered in sweat again. Although I was tired, I also gained a lot.
The next morning, after having breakfast, Nalan Zhao left Shen Zhiyi's Nebula and went out to investigate.
The long-awaited system also reappeared at this time.
The familiar mechanical sound rang in Shen Zhiyi's ears.
How are you, fellow players?
[It's been a while, this system will once again bring new challenges to all players.]
Meanwhile, the chat area was in an uproar, with everyone complaining about having to participate in some ridiculous challenge in such hot weather.
Isn't this going to kill them?
"I'm speechless. They still want to give us some kind of challenge in this weather."
"It's so hot already. What if someone gets sick from the heat while doing that ridiculous challenge? Will the system take responsibility?"
"Surviving in extreme heat is already difficult enough, and then they make a fuss about all this unnecessary stuff."
The system is well aware that players are very dissatisfied with its challenges, but so what?
It's just a system; its job is to publish these messages according to a pre-set program.
The system's mechanical voice seemed much colder than before.
This challenge will feature a game of Werewolf, with 50 players per game. There will be 10 werewolves, 10 special roles, and the remaining players will all be villagers.
The game will feature a werewolf elimination mode. Find the werewolves hidden among you, eliminate them, and the villagers will win.
Conversely, the werewolf formation wins.
After forming a team, you will be dropped onto a small island.
The island hides many clues about werewolves and priests. Players are encouraged to actively search for them, find the werewolves among themselves, or eliminate all the priests.
Note that this challenge version of Werewolf is significantly different from the Werewolf games you have played before.
It differs from what you understand as Werewolf, so please be cautious.
Players who are eliminated have two options: play the next game or return to Nebula.
For more challenges, players are encouraged to explore the island on their own.
After the system announced the game rules, the players started cursing in the chat group again.
"What the hell? Are you kidding me? 50 people? How are we supposed to play like this?"
"Is this challenge mandatory? Can I skip it?"
"I don't know, the system didn't say anything. I guess everyone has to participate?"
"It really made me cry. It could have just tortured us directly, but it still went through a procedure."
"I really don't know what the point of living in this world is, having to suffer like this every day."
Then, the system's mechanical voice sounded again.
Players are free to choose whether or not to participate in this challenge, but those who do participate will receive generous rewards.
Werewolf is not a single game; the winning player can either advance to the next game or not.
The player who wins each round will receive a corresponding reward, which will be credited to their account immediately after the game ends.
The Werewolf game will automatically open one hour later; players can choose to participate at their convenience.
After seeing the rewards for participating in the challenge, some players became eager to try it.
In this hot weather, even the star beasts don't like to come out.
They didn't want to go outside and suffer from the heat, so they had been eating their stored food all this time.
If things continue like this, we'll be doomed sooner or later. We might as well take a gamble and try our luck in Werewolf. Maybe we can get some supplies back?
There are players who want to go, and naturally there are players who don't want to go.
"Thank goodness, I can choose not to go. How could someone as cunning as me possibly outsmart you guys with your 800 scheming minds?"
"My intelligence doesn't allow me to play such high-level games. I'd better stay on Nebula."
"I don't want to die +1. If I'm lucky and win, that's fine, but what if I'm unlucky?"
"Tch, you guys are too cowardly. Don't you even know what it means to gamble and win big?"
"What if you get lucky and run into a big shot?"
"It's true that you might run into a big shot, but whether that big shot is there to take your life is another matter."
"...That makes some sense. If the big shot is on your side, that's fine. But if he's on the opposing side, you're doomed."
"To sum it up, staying on the nebula is the safest option."
Shen Zhiyi had been secretly watching the chat area for a while.
But she always felt that the system had ulterior motives. Didn't they all participate in the entire event instance that time?
This time, the option to participate or not is completely unbelievable.
Staying on the nebula, I wonder what else might happen.
Therefore, Shen Zhiyi decided to participate.
She couldn't mind receiving such a generous reward; she didn't know how long she would have to stay in this interstellar space, so every bit of supplies she could accumulate was precious.
An hour later, the registration portal mentioned by the system appeared in front of the players on time.
Shen Zhiyi directly chose to participate from the two options.
We'll be teleported to the island in ten minutes.
Shen Zhiyi released Xiao Lan and Xiao Qing again, letting them stay at home with the Soul-Devouring Vine to guard the house.
Fearing that the Soul-Eating Vine wouldn't get enough nutrients if it stayed in the flowerpot, I also left a few vials of plant nutrient solution.
Before being teleported to the island, Shen Zhiyi hurriedly sent a message to Nalan Zhao, who had not yet returned.
So that he won't come back and not see her.
When the time came, a huge white light flashed before Shen Zhiyi's eyes.
When they opened their eyes again, they were already on the island the system had mentioned.
She looked around but didn't find any other players.
It seems the system must have dispersed their landing locations.
At this moment, several lines of text appeared in front of Shen Zhiyi.
This game lasts for one day. Players must find the werewolf hidden among themselves. If you have not completed your respective tasks by the end of the day, the game will be lost.
Next, players, please confirm your identity.
Your identity is...
After memorizing her identity, Shen Zhiyi headed towards the center of the island.
As I walked, I heard some faint noises not far away.
She summoned Fox Moon.
Fox Moon went to check the situation on her own. "There are two players over there. I just listened, and those two players formed an alliance after confirming their identities."
"I'm afraid they all have their own ulterior motives." Shen Zhiyi wouldn't form alliances with anyone; she didn't trust those players.
Fox Moon leaned on Shen Zhiyi's shoulder, "Yiyi, what are you planning to do next?"
Shen Zhiyi smiled slightly. "Guess?"
