Chapter 1: Entering the Game, an Erotic Verification Method
When the out-of-control truck barreled straight into the side of the bus, Ji Ning instinctively shut her eyes tight and covered her head.
Even with her eyes closed, she could sense an especially dazzling white light flash past.
The white light lasted only an instant.
When she opened her eyes again, she found herself directly transported to another, unfamiliar place.
Looking around, Ji Ning realized she was sitting in an exquisitely crafted, vintage-style solid wood leather chair.
Darkness surrounded her, visibility extremely low. Ji Ning could only make out a section of a round table in front of her.
On the round table, the only thing present was an upright placard with the number 6 written on it.
Just as she was completely baffled, a cold, mechanical female voice broadcast, seeming to come from above her head, or perhaps directly inside her mind.
【12-Player Blood Moon Demon Hunter Werewolf has begun. Drawing player identities.】
【Hello, Player No. 6, Ji Ning. Now drawing your Role Card.】
Immediately after, a sound like gears turning rang out. Following a ding, the female voice continued its broadcast.
【Player No. 6, your identity is Seer. Please find and banish the four Werewolves. Lead the Power Roles and Villagers to victory. The winning faction can draw rewards, which will be advantageous for your official entry into the 'Survival Game'.】
From the moment she entered this strange space, despite the fear in her heart, Ji Ning still tried her best to pull herself together and carefully observe everything around her.
In this space, apart from herself, the chair, a corner of the table, and the Role Card, she could see nothing else. She tried to stand up but found she couldn't move at all; her lower body felt as if it were locked onto the seat.
There was no light source around. Aside from the cold broadcast and her own breathing, she could hear no other sounds.
And she couldn't even tell where the broadcast was coming from.
Connecting this with the fact that she had just narrowly escaped death in a car accident, Ji Ning felt this place defied all logic.
And it was too real to be a dream.
From the broadcast's content, Ji Ning extracted several keywords: "Blood Moon Demon Hunter," "Role Card," "Seer," "Werewolf," "Survival Game."
This meant she was currently in a game of "Werewolf," and after this game ended, another "Survival Game" awaited her.
Before Ji Ning could think it through carefully, the broadcast delivered new content.
【Night falls. Close your eyes.】
【Seer, please verify.】
Then, the surrounding darkness seemed to "recede," and the round table before Ji Ning revealed its true appearance.
And it wasn't just the round table; Ji Ning also saw the other eleven people in the same situation as her.
They were all like her, confined to solid wood leather chairs, but she couldn't see their appearances.
All eleven individuals were shrouded in black mist, only their general human silhouettes discernible.
Ji Ning had only played a few online Werewolf games and had a shaky grasp of the rules at best. She only knew that her current "Seer" identity allowed her to verify the identities of other players at night.
She needed to verify an identity now, but apart from herself, the other eleven people were all black, shapeless figures. She couldn't tell their height, weight, or even their gender.
Ji Ning decided to randomly check the identity of Player No. 12 sitting opposite her, so she spoke: "Verify No. 12."
As soon as her words fell, a glowing arrow materialized out of thin air, hovering above Player No. 12's head.
This inexplicably appearing arrow looked three-dimensional, emitting a ghostly purple light. It deepened Ji Ning's bewilderment at these unbelievable sights and simultaneously sparked a hair-raising fear.
【Confirm verification of Player No. 12?】the cold, mechanical female voice inquired.
Ji Ning: "Confirm."
She was curious how this mysterious place would tell her No. 12's identity. Would it just show her the Role Card? Or would it also reveal No. 12's face?
Neither guess was correct.
The next moment, a purple light flared, and then Ji Ning was teleported onto No. 12's body, straddling his lap.
In a place invisible to Ji Ning, this 12-player Werewolf game was being stitched together through footage from multiple tracking cameras within the space and live-streamed on the "New World" network.
Residents of the "New World" sent barrages discussing the game's progress.
"Haven't seen this No. 6 before, is she a newbie? A newbie actually drawing 'Seer,' what insane luck."
"That's bad luck, right? Didn't you see Xing Ye drew 'Blood Moon Apostle'? With Xing Ye around, the Town Faction has no chance."
"Look! No. 6 is about to verify Xing Ye!"
"Ahhh! Amazing!!"
"A newbie gets to feel up Xing Ye right away, what a steal!"
"+1, the newbie hit the jackpot."
At the same time, Ji Ning, who had no idea what was going on, was genuinely terrified.
After being teleported onto No. 12, the system prompted her that a werewolf's genitals differed from the Town Faction's, instructing her to use her corresponding body part to explore and verify.
Although Ji Ning was already 20 years old, she had only ever been a good girl forced into bed twice by her first boyfriend. Being this bold right from the start still made her somewhat embarrassed.
What's more, the other party was a tall, handsome man with striking features.
He wore a cotton, semi-turtleneck black T-shirt and black cargo pants, his arms and chest bulging with muscle. His all-black attire and stern features gave him an unapproachable aura.
In real life, he was probably the cold, handsome type that girls only dared to steal glances at, too intimidated to easily strike up a conversation.
Fortunately, his eyes were closed now, seemingly completely unaware of Ji Ning's situation.
As Ji Ning hesitated, a sharp, piercing beep sounded, and the cold female voice warned her that time was running out.
Left with no choice, Ji Ning didn't dare defy this supernatural entity. She had to unbutton and unzip No. 12's pants to examine his genitals.
Actually, from the moment she was teleported onto No. 12, she had already felt the "foreign object" in his lower body.
That rod propped up his pants into a large bulge, also pressing against Ji Ning's private area, making her blush furiously. She had to shift her hips back to avoid the strange sensation.
After pulling open No. 12's pants, only a pair of semi-fitted boxer briefs remained.
Men's underwear has an opening, which conveniently allowed Ji Ning to see his cock without needing to take off his underwear.
Ji Ning pulled open the underwear flap, tugging at the opening so that with just a slight adjustment, the thick, long cock emerged from the gap, standing erect outside.
Before, Ji Ning had always thought male genitals were ugly. Now, staring at No. 12's at first glance, stunned, she felt for the first time that this thing was somewhat... attractive.
The color was a shade deeper than flesh-pink, the glans large and smooth, the shaft bulging with veins, full of power and aggression. It felt hard and scorching hot in her hand, as if it could ignite her palm.
The live stream's barrage also began flooding the screen.
"Xing Ye, a man with a black heart but a pink cock."
"Hello everyone, Xing Ye is already in my bed."
"The best part of Werewolf is always the verification segment. New girl, hurry up and take off your skirt."
No. 12's large rod stood before her eyes. Although Ji Ning found it aesthetically pleasing, her mind was more preoccupied with the verification.
Her face had already flushed a peachy pink. She stood on her tiptoes, lifted her hips, flipped up her short skirt, pulled down her panties, then scooted forward a little, pressing her private area against No. 12's cock.
The moment she touched the scorching heat, Ji Ning recoiled as if shocked, pulling back again. Then she stared at the cock, watching its changes.
She saw No. 12's genitals rapidly climb to a heart-stopping, blood-red color.
Simultaneously, the female voice broadcast.
【Player No. 12's identity is Werewolf.】
After the verification result came out, Ji Ning pulled up the underwear for herself and No. 12, and was then teleported back to her own seat exactly as before.
Immediately after, the broadcast cycled through the night actions: the Werewolves killing, the Witch acting, and the other Power Roles' night moves.
During this time, Ji Ning kept recalling the gameplay for a 12-player Werewolf match.
Werewolf is a talking game. Participants draw Role Cards for Power Roles, Villagers, and Werewolves.
Werewolves kill at night and participate in discussions during the day, pretending to be Town to avoid being voted out.
When all members of either the Villager or Power Role faction are dead while Werewolves still remain, the Werewolves win. Otherwise, the Town Faction wins.
She hadn't played this Blood Moon Demon Hunter board before, but aside from the Power Role skills, the other gameplay mechanics were largely similar.
A 12-player game has a Sheriff election phase to win the Sheriff Badge. The Sheriff can choose the speaking order, summarize speeches, and their vote counts as 1.5 votes. After death, they can pass the badge to a living player—a very important role.
Having drawn the Seer card, if Ji Ning wanted to lead the Town Faction to victory, she had to run for Sheriff and win the badge.
Her first night's verification had already found a wolf, giving the Town a huge advantage.
【Day breaks.】
With a broadcast that sounded more expansive, the darkness receded from the other 11 people sitting around the round table, revealing their original appearances.
At this moment, Ji Ning realized that the public broadcast and the private broadcast only she could hear felt different.
The private broadcast sounded closer and clearer, like a speaking tube right next to her ear.
While the public broadcast sounded like an overhead announcement.
Then, Ji Ning scanned the other 11 people present and discovered that among the 12 at the table, there were 6 men and 6 women.
Most of them had calm expressions; only two or three looked terrified, cowering, and appeared very vigilant.
Livestream comments:
"There are 4 newbies in this game. The girl who drew Seer is relatively composed."
"The system never gives newbies any hints, just throws them straight into the game. Thrilling."
"Which faction do you think will win?"
"Barring surprises, definitely the Werewolves. Xing Ye has already assigned the strategy. With 3 newbies in the Town Faction, if the Power Roles don't know how to play, there's basically no hope."
"Hard to say. Xing Ye doesn't know he's been verified. Let's watch."
【The Sheriff election now begins. Players, press the button on the election device in front of you. Red for not running, green for running.】
【Countdown begins: 10, 9, 8…】
Ji Ning looked at the silver-gray device that had materialized on the round table before her, resembling a PIN pad at a bank. It had three-sided privacy shields and only two buttons inside: one red, one green.
She directly pressed the green button.
After the countdown ended, golden lights lit up on the backrests of five chairs, including Ji Ning's.
In ascending order, they were No. 2, No. 3, No. 6, No. 10, and No. 12.
【Randomly starting speech with Player No. 3. Player No. 6, please prepare.】
【Attention all players, speeches must revolve around the game. Any rule-breaking speech, such as 'playing against the spirit of the game' or 'outside information,' will result in severe punishment. For the sake of your physical integrity, please abide by the game rules.】
Ji Ning nodded.
She knew "playing against the spirit of the game" meant things like swearing oaths, e.g., "I swear I'm not a werewolf." And "outside information" referred to discussing matters unrelated to the current game.
Player No. 3 was a young, youthful-looking boy. His permed bangs reached his eyebrows, and his face was a little pale from nervousness.
After a 120-second countdown appeared above his head, he rubbed his hands together and began to speak.
"What exactly is this place? Why is it like a sci-fi movie, yet so real? I drew a Villager card. I'm running for Sheriff not to steal the badge, but just to ask what's going on. Can the people speaking after me tell me? My speech is over."
After he finished, the countdown immediately stopped and vanished, and then the broadcast female voice said, 【Player No. 6, please speak.】
A 120-second countdown, identical to No. 3's, appeared above Ji Ning's head.
She was also a bit nervous, afraid her eyes might leak information and let the werewolves see through her early. So she lowered her gaze to the table and spoke, word by word: "No. 3, I'm also new here. I can't answer your question."
"I drew the 'Seer' card. Last night I verified No. 12. He is a werewolf. Tonight I will verify…"
【Player No. 12 Self-Destructs. His identity is 'Blood Moon Apostle'. After 'Blood Moon Apostle' self-destructs, night falls immediately. All Power Role skills are sealed by 'Blood Moon Apostle' and cannot be activated.】
【Player No. 12, please deliver your last words.】
No. 12 said, "Kill 6 tonight, kill 9 tomorrow night," and ended his last words.
【Last night was a 'Peaceful Night'.】
【Night falls. Close your eyes.】
Before Ji Ning could finish speaking, the broadcast announcing No. 12's self-destruction came. As darkness fell, she saw Player No. 12, sitting in his chair, being dragged farther and farther away into the darkness, a hint of unfathomable amusement in his gaze as he looked at her.
Livestream comments:
"Xing Ye actually self-destructed? Didn't he tell the wolves he was going to Hard Claim 'Seer'?"
"What are you saying? Self-destructing now definitely yields a bigger payoff. Don't forget No. 9, who drew Demon Hunter. No. 9 doesn't get along with Xing Ye; he definitely wouldn't believe Xing Ye is Town."
The second night, because Ji Ning's verification skill was sealed, she couldn't verify No. 5's identity and could only watch helplessly as the next day dawned.
After daybreak, the broadcast announced that Player No. 6 had died alone during the second night.
The second day phase began. Those who died during the night had no last words.
Ji Ning had been killed by the werewolves. Just like No. 12, she was dragged farther and farther back in her chair.
After receding, she surprisingly found she could see the situation of everyone on the field, and could also see No. 12, who had been eliminated by self-destructing.
No. 12 had his long legs crossed. Noticing she kept staring at him, he said to her in a flat tone, "Your luck is pretty good."
