Chapter 496 Opposition



"[Entrepreneur], [Beggar]?" Kroni chuckled. "So you two just got here, huh? Haha! Well then, I'll have to give you some serious advice."

"After leaving this room, go straight downstairs."

"Don't let this unattainable position of city lord cost you both your lives."

"You talk too much!" The [General] slammed his hand on the table. "I don't care about their identities at all, all I know is that you're slowing down the game's progress!"

"If you don't show me your ID card, I'll smash your head in!"

"What a reckless fool."

Kloni smiled helplessly, then tossed his identity card onto the table.

【police】

How could it be this identity? Jiang Ran was slightly taken aback. It wasn't that there was anything wrong with the identity itself, but rather that Kloni wasn't wearing any police uniform at all!

Both Jiang Ran and Lin Zhi had large areas of their clothes torn and were covered in dust after receiving the "Beggar" identity token.

The "general" over there was dressed in clothing befitting his status, but Kloni, a "police officer," was still in plainclothes. Could he be an undercover police officer?

This doesn't make sense.

The General stared at him: "You have a special item belonging to the Lover, used to conceal your identity?"

Is it a special prop used to conceal one's appearance? This makes sense. Since Kroni possesses a special prop, does it prove that he also lured someone into the room and sacrificed them using candlelight?

[Everyone has revealed their identity cards. Round one begins. Please guess the order of the other three identities.]

The answers are already obvious; there's nothing to guess.

Jiang Ran's "beggar" corresponds to "fool";

Lin Zhi's "entrepreneur" also corresponds to "the fool";

The character for "general" in the male general's name corresponds to the character for "chariot."

As for Kloni's "police," the corresponding term is naturally "justice."

[Round 1 ended, no one eliminated]

[Round Two - Within 20 minutes, hunt down one of your enemies and bring their identity card to the room.]

Those who fail to complete the task within 20 minutes will be eliminated.

Along with this text appeared four pistols.

The hunting rifle only works against your enemies and only has one bullet.

The second mission was to have them kill someone? Klonny chuckled and picked up the gun.

No wonder they all wanted to enter the room. Even if they couldn't win the game, getting a gun like that would be a pretty good item. Coming in here would definitely be worth it!

In the first round, let them reveal their identities to each other. If there are conflicting identities, then the moment they get their hands on a gun, a shot will likely be fired!

Fortunately, the identities of the four of them do not conflict with each other, but they still have to be careful, since if they can kill the other three, then they will naturally be unable to complete the mission.

Another point is that the mission has a time limit of 20 minutes, which is enough time for each person to change their identity twice. As the identity changes, the "enemy" will naturally change as well. Therefore, the control of time and identity is also extremely important.

"Then I'll be going now. I hope to see you all again in 20 minutes—of course, that's a lie! Hahaha!"

Kloni tucked the gun into his pocket, making it completely invisible to the naked eye. Is this the concealment power of a special prop?

His identity is a [police officer], corresponding to the eleventh position, and he is also the one with the highest progress among the four.

Jiang Ran's identity is that of a beggar... What is the corresponding identity to this identity?

Is he a capitalist? A person in power? A landlord?

What kind of "enemies" does Lin Zhi, the "entrepreneur," have? Could it be a big boss?

Before knowing the specific identity and name, any guess can not be 100% correct.

Moreover, the issue of identity changes must also be taken into account; within 20 minutes, they may change their identities a maximum of two times.

The Fool comes after the Magician, and then the Priestess.

I have a feeling that it would be even harder to find "enemies" with these two identities!

Jiang Ran sighed slightly. If Little Gwen were here, she could use her perception to peek at what was written on the other party's identity card, which would save a lot of trouble.

No more time could be wasted in the room. The two people had already left, so Jiang Ran and Lin Zhi also left the room. The man in the classic gentleman's suit who had been outside was still standing at the door. No one knew what he wanted to do.

The man nodded slightly to them, then remained standing in place.

There weren't many people on the second floor, so Jiang Ran decided to go to a higher floor.

The Fool represents the beginning of a journey, so the opposite card represents someone who has already succeeded and won!

In some ways, the identity of "General" is also the opposite of that of "Beggar"!

However, that guy didn't make a move against Jiang Ran, which means that he believed there was another identity that clashed more with the "General"!

What does the title "General" represent? Power and status, or a more affluent life? No, no, no, these can all be represented by a better status!

The word "General" represents war!

That's right! The opposing identity that guy is going to kill is very likely the one representing "peace"!

The game rules refer to "enemies," but these two words do not refer to enemies in the common sense; they represent opposing identities!

What is the opposite of the Fool? It's most likely the World. But if someone has already reached the World stage, wouldn't they already be able to win when the round ends?

It could also be the Grim Reaper, which also represents the end. However, we can't judge it solely from the perspective of tarot cards, as each identity has its own meaning.

Bang!

While Jiang Ran was still thinking, gunshots suddenly rang out in the distance!

Someone's made a move! So fast?!

The two ran forward and saw that the person who had committed the murder was Klonny, while the person lying on the ground with a large hole in his forehead was the drug addict from before.

The police killed the drug addict!

"My mission is complete, you guys have to keep up the good work!"

Kloni twirled the pistol between his fingers, bent down to take the "Drug Addict" identification card, and then walked back towards the room he had been in before.

"We need to act quickly."

Jiang Ran no longer needed to think about what the identity of "beggar" meant, because the five minutes were almost up!

The atmosphere in the entire building shifted from joy to sorrow once again.

Jiang Ran looked at his identity card.

It says on it—【The Joker】!
