After saying "Game start", the loudspeaker fell silent. The men in black walked backwards out of the villa gate, pointing their guns at everyone. They were probably foreign mercenaries, and they were very professional in their Z-shaped evacuation route. The last person was responsible for the rear guard, and before leaving, he arrogantly made a biubiubiu gesture to them.
"You!" Max Fang's pent-up anger suddenly came out and he rushed forward, wanting to fight with the other party.
The mixed-race boy grabbed him and said, "Are you looking for death?!"
Max Fang caught a glimpse of the gun in the other party's hand, which was dark and cold, and his anger was instantly extinguished. More than a dozen helicopters took off under their gaze, and Max Fang not only lost his anger, but also his heart was cold.
Everyone left in the hall looked at each other in bewilderment. No one knew what to do next. The two bodies were still lying in the hall. The girls huddled in a corner of the room, staying away from the bodies.
Max Fang looked around and saw no one was talking, so he had to bite the bullet and comfort them: "Don't be afraid, everyone. There are still seven days left. Let's think of a solution together. There will always be a chance."
As he spoke, he could not help but glance at the two bodies lying prone, then turned around and said, trying to liven up the atmosphere: "Let's get to know each other first, and introduce ourselves to each other?"
"What do you want to introduce?" The girl named Grace Yang sneered, "So that you know who to look for when you die, right?"
Lily Ding stood beside her and said disapprovingly: "What are you talking about? Do you really want to kill someone?"
Grace Yang stared at her like she was an idiot, pointed at the two bodies and said, "You saw what happened to those who resisted! Do you want to be like that, too?"
"But the man with the gun has already left!" Lily Ding couldn't believe it and turned around suddenly to stare at Grace Yang.
Grace Yang curled his lips coldly: "But they will come back in seven days, and only the winner can get on the plane."
She was right. No one dared to speak again. Everyone looked at each other, each with their own thoughts.
"If everyone really wants to survive," the mixed-race boy who was isolated far away suddenly interrupted, "I have a plan."
Everyone looked at him.
"Don't look at me like that," the mixed-race guy sitting at the head of the card table, busy struggling with the suit, didn't even raise his head, "I was also cheated, we are all the same, a poor man who fell into this life-and-death game."
He quickly took off his suit jacket and threw it on a chair beside him, then started to pull the buttons of his tight vest. The weather was getting hotter and the atmosphere was tense. After taking off the vest, Max Fang saw that his lower back was wet.
A middle-aged man was also sitting at the table. He had not moved since the gunshot, looking like a man who had seen a lot but was not afraid of showing off. He turned his head and looked up, staring at the mixed-race boy who was sitting with his legs crossed: "Do you know something about this? What is the intention of the person behind this?"
"What's your intention?" Jason Si raised his lips, smiling, "Rich people have abnormal psychology, just like some people like to watch football, some people like to watch black boxing, he just likes the excitement of people killing each other."
Max Fang left Lily Ding hiding behind him, took two steps forward and asked quickly: "So you said there is a way, what is it?!"
The mixed-race boy glanced at him, his eyes reflecting a light icy sheen in the sunlight.
"This method is both simple and difficult." The mixed-blood boy played with the small box in his hand. "What he wants to see is us killing each other, but we don't want to do what he wants. We still have seven days to get familiar with this island. We will make arrangements. After seven days, when the helicopter arrives, we will counter-rob the enemy. I can fly a helicopter. As long as I fly it into China, these foreign mercenaries will have no way to deal with us."
Max Fang frowned as he listened to his suggestion and asked, "What about you?"
"Huh?" The mixed-race boy was stunned for a moment and stared at him in confusion.
"Do you have Chinese nationality? Do you... do you dare to step into the Chinese customs?" Max Fang was a little worried. This mixed-race boy was unlucky to be dragged into this. In fact, it was hard to say that he was innocent. He colluded with foreign mercenary forces. God knows whether he had a criminal record before.
The mixed-race boy seemed to be surprised by his question. He looked at Max Fang for a while, lowered his head and said, "You don't need to worry about this..."
"That's a good idea!" Lily Ding interrupted the conversation between the two people, "This way we won't have to die! So what are we waiting for?! Let's go check it out tonight!"
The mixed-blood boy looked around at everyone present. Some people met his gaze and looked at him, while others lowered their heads.
"If you want this method to work, I think we should destroy this identity box together and no one should open it." The mixed-blood boy smiled sarcastically, "As long as you don't bind your fingerprint and identity card to the magnetic card and don't use this magnetic card to swipe the machine in the corner, the system won't be able to determine who is what. There will be no barriers or suspicions between us."
There was a sudden silence.
This is impossible, Max Fang felt cold in his heart. No wonder he said this method is simple and difficult. In fact, to break this situation, only two words are needed: trust. If everyone trusts each other and agrees not to stab others in the back, they can work together to survive. However, even if Max Fang's IQ is low, he will not be naive enough to believe that this group of strangers who are inexplicably involved can have real trust with each other.
"Okay! Let's destroy it together!" Lily Ding agreed enthusiastically. However, no one paid attention to her. She turned her head to look at this one, then that one, "Why don't you say anything!"
Of course no one spoke.
The young couple looked at each other and seemed to have reached some kind of tacit understanding. The man said, "We need to discuss this."
The other middle-aged man smiled and leaned over to say, "How about we open the box and take a look? At least take a look at the rules."
"It's still ruined!" The single mother held her child, just wanting to survive. "It would be great if we could live together, no matter what the rules of the game are."
Grace Yang put on a fake smile and directly opened the box.
Max Fang sighed. He turned to look at the mixed-race boy, who smiled coldly.
Since someone had already started unpacking the boxes, everyone stopped hiding and started to unpack their own character boxes. Everyone glanced around tacitly, each occupying a corner without checking each other. The young couple nodded to each other and pulled open the brass button on the box. Max Fang couldn't help but pried open the brass box button.
At the top was a page of instructions on cardboard, which should be similar for everyone. Max Fang closed the box and read the instructions carefully.
"Game rules: Please memorize your role, then scan your role card and fingerprint into the ID card. After completing the above steps, it is best to destroy the role card to avoid leaking your role information."
"Starting tonight, every time night falls, enter the werewolf's place. Each werewolf can use wolf poison potion to poison one player. Werewolves do not recognize each other, and wolf poison is still effective against werewolves. The onset time of wolf poison is 30 minutes. During this period, a witch has been wandering in the woods. If you find the witch's only bottle of antidote within 30 minutes after being injected with wolf poison, you can get rid of the wolf poison. In addition to the antidote, the witch also has a bottle of poison that can poison any player. The poison has no slow release time and takes effect immediately."
"It is important to remind you that both wolf poison and voodoo need to be injected into the player's body using a syringe. The force value is also a relatively important factor. Villagers can also have a chance to kill the werewolf by using their force advantage."
"There are more than 30 cabins scattered across the island. Each cabin has an ID reader. The prophet can use his fingerprint and the ID card bound to the character to read the identity and verify the player's identity from the machine. However, there is only one chance every night."
"When dawn breaks, enter the village. At 8 o'clock every morning, all surviving players gather in the lobby on the first floor of the villa to vote for a werewolf and push the guillotine. Then everyone swipes their cards in turn to identify their current roles, and God makes the decision. As long as there are opposing camps in the current game, the verdict is 'game continues', otherwise the verdict is 'game over'."
"Players who arrive before 8 a.m. will be deemed dead and disqualified from continuing the game. Please do not oversleep."
"Finally, I would like to remind everyone, 'The game has no rules. Once it starts, it cannot be stopped. The living can win huge rewards, and the dead will leave people with nothing.' I hope everyone will keep this in mind. I wish you a happy game."
At the end, there was a smiley face attached. A Fcuking smiley face. Max Fang was irritated by that mocking smiley face.
He secretly opened the magnetic card, and there was a character card underneath. Max Fang opened it and saw that it was indeed what Lucky-E was. If there was a live broadcast, I could grab a spot with this physique! It was exactly the same as the flag he had set. The card left for him was the witch. If he tried to grab it, he would definitely get a villager.
Two tubes of reagent were stuck with foam under the card. One tube had a skull on the top of the stopper, and the other had an hourglass. It was still made of brass and was beautifully carved. It was indeed the thinking of a psychopath, Max Fang thought.
These two tubes of reagents gave him some comfort. He didn't have to act like a wolf and kill others. If he was killed, he still had a chance to save his life. The useless character in the eyes of others was probably Max Fang's most ideal role card.
He looked up at the mixed-race boy, wanting to see what role he played, but found that he was so careless that he didn't even open the box.
The mixed-race boy saw his gaze and winked at him.
Max Fang asked with expression:?
The mixed-race boy stuck out his chin.
The two men walked out of the villa one after the other. Max Fang followed the young man to the beach and saw the young man holding a glass of water and sitting down on a rock on the beach.
"What are you doing?" Max Fang looked at the other person warily, "It's not even dark yet."
The young man rolled his eyes at the sky and said, "It's fine if you say this to me, but if you say it to the wolf, the wolf will immediately know that you are a good person."
Max Fang was speechless. He stammered to smooth things over: "I, I might be deliberately creating confusion! I deliberately disguised my identity!"
The young man raised his eyebrows and smirked.
Max Fang didn't dare to speak. He warned himself to be careful in what he said and did, because those who dared to sign a contract to jeopardize their lives were all shrewd people.
The mixed-blood boy did not bother about his identity anymore. Instead, he took a sip of water, put the cup aside, stretched out his right hand and said, "Li Jason Si."
It turns out his last name is Li. Is that the foreign Lee or a Chinese surname?
Max Fang also reached out his hand and shook his dry and cold fingers: "Max Fang."
The two sat side by side on the reef, without saying a word to each other.
So... "Why did you call me out?" Max Fang turned his head and asked.
Li Jason Si lazily raised one corner of his lips: "From your reaction, it's almost as if you have a character card written on your face. If I don't get you out, anyone can tell what kind of card you have just by asking a few questions."
Max Fang was a little surprised. This person first found a way to save everyone and then protected himself. No matter what his purpose was, he was not a bad person.
He scratched his head and said something else: "It's a pity that everyone has opened the box. I guess it's impossible for us to go back together as you wish. What a pity."
Li Jason Si smiled and shook his head.
"I knew it wouldn't work. Do you know the 'prisoner's dilemma'?" Li Jason Si looked up at the sky. In the distance, the sky and the sea were the same color, and the junction between them was a strange black and blue.
Max Fang shook his head honestly.
Li Jason Si explained: "Two conspirators were interrogated separately. If both parties kept secrets from each other and did not expose each other, then the evidence was insufficient and both parties were sentenced to only one year. If one person told the truth and the other concealed the truth, the criminal who told the truth could make up for his faults and be acquitted, while the other concealed the truth and was sentenced to ten years. If both of them exposed each other, they would be imprisoned for eight years together. In this scenario, if the two people could not communicate in advance and one of them was you, what would you choose?"
Max Fang had a strange look of embarrassment and difficulty on his face. He thought carefully for a while and said honestly: "Not necessarily. It depends on who was arrested with him."
Li Jason Si raised his eyebrows.
Max Fang explained: "If I was arrested with Mia Xiao, I would definitely believe that she would not betray me, and she would also believe that I would not betray her. This would be very simple, and we would be sentenced to one year together. Or if I was arrested with you, and a smart person like Brother Tony, everyone would definitely understand. The only thing I'm afraid of is being arrested with someone I don't know, and he's a fool. To protect myself, I can only be imprisoned with him for eight years."
"That's why I know it won't work," Li Jason Si laughed mockingly, "Humans are inherently selfish, especially when it comes to their own life and death. Selfishness, indifference, laziness, mutual criticism, endless desires. These are all original sins. Human beings are really too ugly."
Max Fang felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this. After all, he was also one of those who were despised and ridiculed by the other party, but when he thought that the other party was also an ugly human being, he was somewhat relieved.
"Then why do you still want to tell everyone this method?" Max Fang asked.
"Because I wanted to give everyone one last chance to save themselves, and also give myself a chance. What a pity." Li Jason Si looked at the sea in the distance. Night gradually fell, and the black waves danced and hit the coast, like some kind of monster whose face could not be seen in the darkness.
Li Jason Si smiled, drank the water in the cup, stood up and left.
His back seemed to be filled with some stories, not as straight as before. Halfway through the walk, he suddenly turned around and smiled at Max Fang: "Be careful at night, don't die on the first night."
Max Fang sat on the reef and grinned stupidly: "No, I'm the protagonist, I have high combat power, and I can cheat at critical moments. But you, people like you who are very smart and have stories to tell, according to the routine, you are the mentor of our newbie protagonist, a character with a 100% mortality rate in Japanese comics, so you should be more careful."
Li Jason Si's face was not clearly visible against the light, but he seemed to be smiling. He raised the box in his hand and shook it, and also joked: "Maybe I am a wolf, how can I say for sure."
"Do we have to compete with each other by putting up flags like this?" Max Fang smiled and raised his head. "No matter who you are, I like you very much. I wish you good luck and a safe journey. Let's go back alive together. I'll buy you a drink when we return to China."
Li Jason Si smiled and waved his hand, neither saying yes nor no, then turned and left.
Max Fang yelled, "Hey! Your reaction is not a good sign!"
Li Jason Si's voice came from afar, with some laziness and fatigue: "You can go back alive first, idiot!"
