Chapter 444: True and False Prophets (2-in-1)
After jumping out of her identity, Li Shuyi continued: "I am a prophet, and I checked member No. 8 at night, and he is the guardian camp. Hopefully, member 8 will serve as the leader of the team. β
Qi Shushu's eyes fell on No. 8, that is, Bai Xiaowen.
Bai Xiaowen smiled, but he was smiling bitterly in his heart.
Miss Li, I'm afraid I haven't played this game much, it's obviously a novice speech. She was probably just studying the rules for a while in the dark of night.
From Bai Xiaowen's point of view, he can fully understand why Li Shuyi's "good guy identity" who guards the camp is a fake prophet. She wants to elevate Bai Xiaowen's identity - whether Bai Xiaowen is in the guardian camp or the blasphemy camp, Li Shuyi hopes that Bai Xiaowen can survive.
Even if the price paid is that Li Shuyi's own status was lowered and she was voted to execute.
There is no doubt that Li Shuyi's new speech will be the target of everyone's attack in the audience - if the other ten members have the corresponding experience in the game, they can find a lot of loopholes.
After finishing the sentence, Li Shuyi gently knocked on the table and signaled that she was finished.
Each participant's speech is timed by an hourglass, and as soon as the timer expires, the speech is forced to end. Bai Xiaowen visually measured it, and according to the sand leakage speed of the hourglass, the duration of each person's single speech should be 3 minutes.
Prompt: "Speech 1 ends, Speech 4 ends." β
The round table turned, and the hourglass came to member 4 and began counting the time again.
The person sitting in position 4 is a fair-skinned man with a modest temperament, who looks like a nobleman. The relief of the coffin behind him is the image of a rabbit.
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Ludwig. β
"First of all, I am a good personβyou can think of me as a layman, and I can be a priest. β
"I think you're all going to be able to sit here and do a lot of games of transcendentals. However, just in case there are newcomers involved, I'll talk about some conventional things, which are also to increase the chances of the good guys in our guardian camp winning, because in terms of numbers, the chance that newcomers will be assigned to the guardian camp is twice as likely as the blasphemous camp, and explaining these things clearly will help the newcomers in the guardian camp make more accurate judgments. Of course, seasoned veterans can skip my speech. β
Hearing Ludwig say this, many people had smiles on their faces, and the atmosphere was a little relaxed.
Ludwig continues:
"Let's talk about the title first, some people don't want to say their name, like the lady in position one. Of course, it doesn't matter, we generally call it according to the relief of the coffin behind us. β
"For example, on the coffin behind me, there is a cute little rabbit. So, newcomers can call me Mr. Rabbit, and No. 1 is Miss Rat. It is said that these twelve animal reliefs came from a distant foreign land, and there is no need to waste time studying them deeply. β
"Also, the squad leader election on the first day of the Transcendental game is very important for our Guardian faction. We need to make sure that the true prophet gets the leadership because it will be passed on and onβthe prophet will always die in two or three nights because he is too much of a threat to the blasphemous camp. β
After the death of the prophet, we can only find out the remaining blasphemers by reasoning. This is undoubtedly difficult, so the prophet had to make the most of his contribution as much as possible. β
"When the Prophet is running for leadership, he must say who he will be verifying the next nightβso that if the Prophet falls the next night and he proves that the member is a guardian faction, he can send the message that the member is a good person by 'appointing the member as the successor to the leader.' β
"Conversely, if the member is found to be blasphemous that night, the message can be sent that the person is a bad person by 'appointing another known good person as a successor' or 'not appointing a successor'. β
"For example, Miss No. 1 Rat just made a speech, unfortunately there is no such thing. So, my prophetic status, I am not sure. If someone later claims to be a true prophet, I would believe the latter a little more. β
Mr. Rabbit No. 4, that is, Ludwig, tapped the round table lightly at this point, and the speech ended.
The round table turned to number 5, and on the coffin behind him, a dragon-shaped relief was engraved.
Bai Xiaowen actually realized a long time ago, isn't this the zodiac sign of his meow!
The twelve Yuanchen of ancient Huaxia appeared in the Black Tide plane world, which is indeed a bit out of harmony, just like what No. 4 Ludwig said just now, animals from distant and exotic lands. For example, the dragon behind No. 5 is a Chinese-style dragon, which is very different from the Western-style dragon with a lizard head, bat wings, and a big butt.
In this way, Bai Xiaowen became more curious about the owner of this latent maze.
At the very least, this person (?) is aware of the existence of the Alien Plane, and has most likely been to the Alternate Plane - of course, it is difficult to say whether the other person is human or not.
Number 5 spoke with a blank face:
"Milo, you can call me Mr. Long. I am a prophet, and last night I verified that Mr. 8 Sheep is a good person. The next night I will verify Mr. Chicken No. 10 because Mr. Chicken is too nervous and I suspect he is not a good person. β
"I would like to share my thoughts on the members who have spoken before the two speakers. β
"Miss No. 1 Rat, pretending to be my identity as a prophet, is suspected of being a blasphemer. Of course, good people can pretend to be prophets, but they usually falsely report the identity of a 'blasphemer' to the back of the place, and deceive the other person's reaction. And Miss Rat falsely reported the identity of a good person to the back position, so there was no possibility of defrauding the posterior position. If she is unwilling to withdraw from the leadership race, she will inevitably be a blasphemous who will come out to confuse everyone's eyes and recommend that she be executed by vote. β
"Mr. No. 4 Rabbit, I am more patient to explain some rules to possible newcomers, hoping to increase the winning chance of the guardian camp, in my opinion, the identity is better. Of course, it is not excluded that it is a blasphemer, and it is found that the blasphemer teammate No. 1 pretended to be too clumsy in his speech, so he made up for it. β
"As for who is the true prophet between me and No. 1, I don't need to say more. Miss No. 1 didn't even say anything to the next night, and she actually elected Mr. No. 8 as the leader of the team, have you ever seen such a prophet?"
"I hope you believe me and elect me as the leader of the squad. Concluding statement. β
Bai Xiaowen's eyes narrowed slightly.
Bai Xiaowen himself is a prophet, so No. 5 "Mr. Dragon" Milo, in his eyes, must be an iron wolf...... Oh no, the Iron Blasphemer. The logic of his attack on Li Shuyi is indeed justified and convincing, but his failure is that he gave the real prophet Bai Xiaowen the identity of a good person.
This is the popular "false prophet sends the true prophet Jin Shui" (Jin Shui refers to the good identity verified by the prophet), which can be said to be the bloody beginning of the bad guy camp, and then Bai Xiaowen, the true prophet, as long as he "rebels against the water and establishes the police" - that is, jumps out of the identity of the true prophet to participate in the leadership election, the No. 5 false prophet is ironclad to be out.
Of course, in the eyes of the fierce No. 5 Milo, No. 1 should be a rookie true prophet, so he sent golden water to the back without any scruples and sent it to Bai Xiaowen's head. From this point of view, Li Shuyi's flawed fake prophetic behavior confused the sight of the blasphemers, and made a contribution to the crooked beating.
No. 7 Miss Ma, a beautiful woman with a slightly dark complexion and a plump body, first whistled and looked at Bai Xiaowen with some flirtation:
"Congratulations to Mr. No. 8 Sheep, without saying a word, he was reported as a good person by two prophets, and the status of the audience was the highest. From this point of view, he is really a handsome boy. My name is Leona, and I currently believe that Mr. 5 Dragon is the real prophet and No. 1 is an imposter. Anyway, the Prophet didn't find any blasphemers on the first day, so let's execute Miss Rat No. 1 by all votes. β
"However, I would like to hear Mr. Sheep speak, maybe Mr. Sheep will surprise me. β
No. 7 Miss Ma's speech was very brief, and the round table hourglass turned to Bai Xiaowen's face.
Bai Xiaowen ignored Leona's slightly **-style speech, he had been thinking silently in his heart.
To jump, or not to jump? That's the question.
Following the train of thought just now, Bai Xiaowen, as the highest status on the field, if he jumps out of the prophet, as long as he blows, the unlucky No. 5 Milo will definitely be out.
However, there are four people in the blasphemy camp, and just finding one blasphemer is far from a victory.
Among them, there is also a big devil who can launch a self-explosion during the day and take away one of the surviving members on the field - Bai Xiaowen jumped out of the identity of a true prophet, although it can make the perspective of the good people in the field clear, identify the identity of the blasphemer of No. 5 Mylo, and Li Shuyi's identity is better, but what about after?
If Bai Xiaowen is killed by the big devil's self-explosion, can the other good people in the guardian camp find out the last two blasphemers?
If he wants to entrust the fate of himself and Li Shuyi to the other six people, Bai Xiaowen is definitely unwilling.
But the problem is that if Bai Xiaowen didn't jump the prophet, he would definitely be just the No. 5 blasphemer Milo with Li Shuyi's speech full of loopholes like SpongeBob SquarePants.
Thinking of Li Shuyi's speech, a thought flashed in Bai Xiaowen's mind.
γWait...... If you start with reverse thinking......]
"Member No. 8, you have the floor. After Bai Xiaowen was silent for a few seconds, in the center of the round table, a prompt sounded in a mysterious light.
In front of everyone's eyes, Bai Xiaowen slowly spoke:
"Actually...... I believe that Miss Rat No. 1 is the true prophet. β
Facing everyone's slightly surprised eyes, Bai Xiaowen spoke confidently:
"Let's assume for a moment that if Miss Rat No. 1 were a blasphemer and came out to pretend to be a prophet, would she give that kind of statement that is full of loopholes and doesn't even say what the follow-up inspectors say?"
"Yes, you can say that Number 1 is a newcomer. But a newcomer dares to pretend to be a prophet in this game of life and death?"
Or rather, Trumpet 1 was publicly cast out as a prophet by his fellow blasphemers. Then think again, wouldn't her companions teach her how to dance the Prophet, and not forget that the blasphemy camp is negotiable at night. β
"The newcomer's speech on the No. 1, which is full of loopholes, proves a point. She, no teammates. No one taught her how to speak. β
Bai Xiaowen said in an accentuated tone: "So, I believe that Miss No. 1 Rat is the real prophet. Then, Mr. Dragon No. 5, who confronted her with the Prophet, must be a blasphemer. β
When speaking, Bai Xiaowen's eyes kept looking at Li Shuyi.
This time, it can really be regarded as a dangerous move, let Li Shuyi act as a prophet on the bright side, Bai Xiaowen, the real prophet, is hidden, and if it goes well, he can verify his identity a few more times. Moreover, Bai Xiaowen is alive on the field, whether it is a summary speech or a vote, he can play a role in leading the team.
Bai Xiaowen was afraid that Li Shuyi would withdraw from the election - this would prove that Li Shuyi was not a true prophet, because it was impossible for a true prophet to withdraw from the election.
If Li Shuyi withdraws from the election, Bai Xiaowen can only overturn his previous statement and jump out of the identity of a true prophet.
Even if he is killed by the Great Devil's self-explosion, it is better than letting the audience mistakenly think that No. 5 Mylo is a true prophet and be led by the nose by the blasphemer.
Li Shuyi's bright eyes also looked at Bai Xiaowen. She always felt that there was a look of encouragement in Bai Xiaowen's eyes.
"As for the other three blasphemers, I think...... There must have been other blasphemers among those who spoke in the leader's campaign, trying to canvass for votes and incitement to False Prophet No. 5. Judging from the previous statements, Miss Ma is the most suspicious. β
"As for Mr. No. 4, it looks like he is explaining the rules to the newcomers, but in fact he is still implicitly attacking No. 1. His final speech was a foreshadowing of the belief in the false prophet number 5. Therefore, it is also possible for the blasphemers 4 and 5 to be established. β
"So, I suggest Miss No. 1, a priori No. 4, and then No. 7. The guards are guarding Miss Rat No. 1 tonight, so that she can report the information of the two-day inspection. Of course, we also have to find a way to prevent the blasphemers from blowing themselves up in a row. β
(The werewolf self-destructs during the werewolf kill, which can end the daytime phase and go directly to the next night.) This way the prophet is not given the opportunity to speak, and it is an effective means of suffocating the information of the person, at the cost of sacrificing a werewolf.)
"Let us make an agreement: if the results of the examination are 4 and 7, one of whom is a blasphemer and the other a good person, then Miss Rat, upon her death, will appoint the good of them as the successor to the leader. β
"If 4 and 7 are both blasphemers, then Miss Rat may not appoint a successor. β
"If 4 and 7 are good people, then Miss Rat can appoint me as her successor. β
"Please don't be nervous, Miss Mouse, I believe that you are a true prophet, and you will definitely help us protect the camp to victory. Bai Xiaowen's words were more subtle, but he couldn't say it more clearly.
He believed that Li Shuyi would definitely find clues in his unusual accentuated tone - at least, Bai Xiaowen hoped that she would continue to stay on the campaign stage, and she could accept the willingness to be strong on the 5th.
