The blade traced a beautiful arc in the air, precisely grazing a wound on the goat-headed man's arm!
The goat-headed man clutched his arm, and the instant the wound appeared, he felt utterly powerless and plummeted straight down from the wooden crate!
After spinning in the air, the blade returned to Jiang Ran's hand.
Jiang Ran simply installed an automatic positioning system on the blade, which can accurately return to its original position even after taking a head from afar—it's incredibly useful!
The Judge has been hunted down! However, Jiang Ran did not obtain the corresponding candlelight because he had already transformed the candlelight of order 20. The reason he came to kill him was simply to complete the room's task.
All you need to do now is return to your room, and the mission will be complete.
Jiang Ran didn't do that immediately; instead, he stared at the conspicuous "rich second generation" on the big screen!
This identity was never seen before. What does being a "second-generation rich kid" mean? His parents have already built a life for him, so he only needs to sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor. Regardless of his efforts, his starting point is far higher than others.
The term "second-generation rich" represents someone who is born with a head start in life! So, what tarot card corresponds to them?
This identity doesn't directly point to success, nor does it represent the end of the journey. So, excluding the "world," what's predetermined at birth is... fate!
[Rich Second Generation] points to position 10! [Wheel of Fortune]!
This card can be considered to have a very special connection with Jiang Ran!
Jiang Ran's candle, corresponding to position 10, had not yet turned bright red, so this "rich second generation" was also among his targets!
The ram-headed man's fall to the ground clearly alerted the other guy, who immediately fled! The identity of the "rich second generation" also disappeared from the screen.
"Forget it, I can't be bothered with him."
Once Jiang Ran completes the room settlement, he can obtain the candles corresponding to the other three people. Calculating the order, the identity of the other person should now change from [Hermit] to the next person in the order.
They happened to arrive at the Wheel of Fate. Since a conflict had already occurred, Jiang Ran saw no need to chase after and kill the rich kid.
Wait a minute, he just happens to be on this floor, and he just happens to be a "rich second generation"... Could it be that guy...?
The two then returned to their room on the second floor.
Congratulations on becoming the final victor!
Jiang Ran gained the opportunity to transform into two candles: the [Power] corresponding to Lin Zhi and the [Wheel of Fate] corresponding to the rich second generation. The game itself did not provide many candles, but the gains in the process were quite substantial!
Jiang Ran has now collected the following candles:
Ordinal position 0~4, ordinal position 6, ordinal position 8, ordinal position 10, ordinal position 13~15, ordinal position 17~21.
In the next round, Jiang Ran will become the fifth sequence corresponding to the [Pope], so there's no need to rush this identity. His next focus should be on the following sequence—
Rank 7 [Chariot]! The winner is currently known as [General], and the loser is unknown.
Number 9 [The Hermit]! The known winner is [The Hermit], the loser is unknown.
Sequence 11 [Justice]! The winner is currently known to be [Police], and the loser is unknown.
Sequence 12 [The Hanged Man]! The winners and losers are currently unknown.
Sequence 16 [The Tower]! The winners and losers are currently unknown.
"It's alright, Brother Jiang Ran." Lin Zhi smiled mischievously. "My identity in the next round will be [Hermit]! I'll just grab some unlucky guy and switch identities with him!"
Jiang Ran nodded. The rich kid's next identity was a policeman, perfectly solving another problem of changing the candlelight!
After dealing with him, snatch his identity card and put it on someone else. In the next round, he becomes the "Hanged Man." Hmm, not bad, a perfect plan!
If we can lure this person into the candlelight room, we can get two more candles, which are perfect for transforming the [Chariot] and [Tower]. Wouldn't that complete the set?
Without hesitation, we got right to it!
Jiang Ran waited for his identity to change. The moment his laughter turned into crying, he felt a wave of drowsiness wash over him. Luckily, he had the Wheel of Destiny active, or he would have fallen into a deep sleep!
The Pope's lineage of "losers" is... a "sleepwalker"?!
Mastering knowledge and emphasizing the spirit are what make a "professor".
Conversely, being controlled by the mind and trapped in the mental world results in being a sleepwalker!
No wonder that bastard Kloni didn't resist at all before. He was just waiting for Jiang Ran to take this identity so he could easily kill him!
If someone truly falls into a sleepwalking state, it could indeed be a fatal blow!
The "Loser" faction is truly a complete rip-off; there's no limit to how bad it can get!
With his mental energy constantly being depleted, almost all of it gone, Jiang Ran had no choice but to quickly end the game.
We've wasted too much time here. If we want to get back to the shepherd's hut before nightfall, we'll have to leave with the sheep right away!
This means they won't be able to participate in the subsequent city lord selection... The designers of the Strange Tales world should have taken this into account, so let's just wait and see.
With nothing else to do, the two waited in place for another five minutes until their sorrow turned into joy and Lin Zhi's identity became that of a "hermit." Only then did Jiang Ran open his eyes!
"We can move now, let's finish this quickly!"
They first went to the 12th floor and found the old acquaintance who had become a "police officer". They didn't expect that this guy had gone to such a high floor. Of course, he couldn't escape punishment, and Jiang Ran successfully transformed the candle of the eleventh order!
Next, they randomly grabbed another unlucky guy, whose identity was "Thinker," corresponding to the second-ranking "Priestess."
This guy's rank was really too low, so Jiang Ran did a good deed and switched his identity card with Lin Zhi's. Afterwards, he was extremely grateful and insisted on repaying the favor with his life. How could Jiang Ran refuse his kindness? So he accepted!
Jiang Ran is now only missing the ordinal numbers 5, 7, 12, and 16!
The building's status changed again, and Jiang Ran's identity also changed to the sixth-ranked "traitor," which corresponds exactly to the "couple" on the successful side. Fortunately, he wasn't the "simp" that I had imagined!
And of course, he also took the opportunity to settle the candle flame of the fifth position.
Only three candles are needed to complete the mission!
"Let's go, let's go straight to the second-floor entrance and keep watch! Let's see if any new people come in!"
If you can lure some unlucky soul into the Candlelight House, collecting three candles at once is not a dream!
Lin Zhi first changed her identity card to "Police" because identity cards that are not held by anyone will not change at the end of the turn.
