To Harm the Righteous Path, I Had No Choice But to Make Games

chapter 182 - I am the Devil


“Senior Brother, why did I do what you said, but everyone still saw through me…?”Floating above the map, Mu Yawen, now a Soul, looked at Zhong Yi beside him with a puzzled expression.Zhong Yi’s mouth twitched slightly: “You guess!”During the first round of speeches, Zhong Yi had already turned the tide and convinced everyone.Unexpectedly, Mu Yawen used only one sentence to make everyone believe that they were Demonic Path…Then, Mu Yawen was tacitly voted out by the others.“Senior Brother, why did you die? Can they also kill people? Doesn’t that mean we’re just fighting each other?”Speaking of fighting, Mu Yawen suddenly became energetic.Just now, he watched the battle from above, seeing Zhong Yi stealthily squatting in a corner, catching lone good people.As a result, he was counter-killed by someone with a single strike and became a Soul to accompany him.“Among the good people, some professions should be able to attack.”Zhong Yi explained.The person who killed him just now was a Head Constable.Zhong Yi specifically opened the profession panel and checked the skills.The Head Constable can also use a blade to kill, but if he kills the wrong person, he will also die.Besides that, there’s also a good person called a Swordsman who can use a blade.“Then why was it Senior Brother who died and not him?”Mu Yawen muttered to himself for a moment, then explained to himself:“Oh right, Senior Brother Zhong, in the Illusion Realm, is what Junior Brother Lu called… a noob.”“…Don’t listen to Junior Brother Lu’s nonsense.”Zhong Yi clenched his fists tightly.Players who die become invisible Soul states, overlooking the entire game from above the map.He had already understood the general gameplay of The Way of the Devil Slaughter.The three factions each had their own objectives.For example, the good people.Completing tasks was probably almost impossible; what they needed to do was find the hidden Demonic Path and Yao Race.Only a very small number of good people professions could attack, so the public speaking and voting session in the Ancestral Hall was the good people’s main battlefield!Next, the Demonic Path.The Demonic Path’s goal should be the simplest of the three.Just kill.Of course, they had to avoid detection and use lies and information asymmetry to conceal their identities, preventing elimination during the voting phase.At first, Zhong Yi didn’t understand the meaning of the Yao Race’s existence, but through several rounds of observation and studying the profession templates, he understood.The Yao Race was a neutral force.Moreover, unlike the good people and the Demonic Path, who were cohesive groups.The various Yao Race monsters were all lone wolves fighting independently!For example, after Zhong Yi and Mu Yawen died, the remaining Yao Race on the field was called a 【Taotie】 (Taotie).Its skill was to eat people into its stomach.The victory objective was to eat everyone else, or to survive during the final 【Taotie】 (Taotie) Time!Zhong Yi looked at the other Yao Race professions and found many interesting settings.For example, the Fool Owl.The victory objective of this thing was actually to be voted out by others during the voting phase.For example, the Corpse Fiend.Like the Fool Owl, it had no killing skills.But similar to his own 【Ghoul】 (Ghoul), it could devour corpses, the difference being it could keep devouring.Its victory objective was to devour a specified number of corpses.…The more Zhong Yi studied, the more interesting he found this Illusion Realm.Just as Lu Ze’s GG words stated, this was a contest of truth and lies!Not only did the Demonic Path and the Yao Race have to lie, but the good people also had to lie.Revealing all one’s identity information would only be a great help to the opponent!Lies, deduction, strategy, improvisation…Every faction needed to master them!“Junior Brother Mu, this Illusion Realm might truly help you.”Zhong Yi watched with great interest as the Taotie below entered 【Taotie】 (Taotie) Time, dodging the Head Constable’s pursuit.Seeing that the game was about to end, Zhong Yi earnestly explained to Mu Yawen:“As the saying goes, know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated.”“Junior Brother Mu, you are too honest by nature; everything is written on your face… Letting you learn to lie isn't a bad thing. At least you’ll be able to tell if the other party is lying to you.”“In this Illusion Realm, remember… no matter who the other party is, never easily tell them the truth!”After listening to Zhong Yi’s teachings, Mu Yawen frowned in distress:“Could it be… even to Senior Brother, I can’t tell the truth?”“Yes, not even to me.”Zhong Yi nodded with extreme seriousness.“In the Illusion Realm, there are no Senior Brothers or Junior Brothers… Before confirming identities, even with me, you must hold back!”“Alright, I understand.”Mu Yawen nodded thoughtfully, muttering:“Can’t tell the truth, can’t tell the truth…”…Soon, the first game ended.As expected, the Taotie, as a Yao Race, won.The good people didn’t win, but instead of being discouraged, these Righteous Path members became even more enthusiastic.“Again! I already understand how to play this Illusion Realm!”“Damn it, I ran into a dead end while running… This map design is so cunning!”“This Taotie is too abnormal! It ate everyone into its stomach…”“Don’t even mention it, my stomach was so noisy just now…”“Hurry up and start, I’m going to begin my deductions!”“Deductions? I think you mean lying!”…Everyone chattered about their experiences from the first game, and then the second match began.“Oh, it’s not the Demonic Path…”Looking at his identity information, Zhong Yi sighed regretfully.Although he was a genuine Righteous Path Cultivator and the highly reputable Senior Brother of the Lingxiao Sect.But…In The Way of the Devil Slaughter, the Demonic Path or Yao Race, which offered more strategic gameplay, was what he found fun.In this round, Zhong Yi’s identity was a good person called a Saint.The special status of this profession was that as long as he died, all good people on the map would receive a “Saint Has Fallen” notification.“Which means I’m bait.”Zhong Yi’s lips curled slightly as he quickly analyzed the purpose of this profession.Once he was killed, anyone without relevant information would be Demonic Path or Yao Race.The prerequisite was that other players knew the Saint’s skill and could use it reasonably.Thinking of this, Zhong Yi pouted.Given the current player skill level, he estimated that someone would immediately shout, “What’s going on? Why did the Saint die?” or similar words.“I still need to figure out everyone else’s background, and then plan with them…”Zhong Yi thought for a moment and finally made a decision—First, find trustworthy teammates, and then go solo to act as bait.This way, his own death could gain more information about the werewolves.He left the kitchen and began searching for potential teammates.In the corridor outside the kitchen, three people had already gathered.As Zhong Yi was carefully observing and selecting suitable teammates, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind him.“Senior Brother Zhong!”Zhong Yi turned his head and saw that it was Mu Yawen.At this moment, Mu Yawen, as Zhong Yi had instructed, had a tense face, trying his best to appear expressionless.“I told you, in the Illusion Realm, you should call me by my number…”Zhong Yi smiled helplessly, pointing to the “One” on his forehead.“Alright, alright, Number One, what’s your identity?”Mu Yawen used all his mental effort to ask, as Zhong Yi had instructed.“A good person, and you?”Zhong Yi tried hard to suppress his laughter.Thinking of his honest Junior Brother Mu trying hard to change himself, he had to cooperate.Mu Yawen grinned, revealing his ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ white teeth:“Haha, me? I’m the Demonic Path!”
