When everyone gathered together, the old players, at least on the surface, did not show any signs of abnormality, as if they had long been accustomed to it, and they did not think about the deeper meaning behind it like Yuki did.

Pursuing fairness in the reincarnation game is probably a serious problem. Even for veteran players, it is not fair for players with one copy and four copies of experience to compete on the same platform.

There is also team formation, resources controlled by the consortium, and invisible and intangible luck and metaphysics.

Okay, for the sake of harmony and friendship, everyone will complete the dungeon according to the same qualifications. However, there is also a monster like Yuki. Everyone has gone through two dungeons with a huge difference in strength. Is this fair to other players?

So there is no fairness, only survival of the fittest.

'At the very least, new players can gather together from the beginning to get used to the game. This gives them an advantage at the beginning and it is not a meaningless torture.'

Yuuki glanced at the newcomers standing firmly together, and finally found a little bit of fairness.

"Are you disappointed? Hahaha, being a nice guy may not be useful." The gangster laughed. He guessed that Yuki wanted to trick the newcomers into being cannon fodder, but in the end, they just joined together for warmth. How could they be so easily fooled?

"No, it just means there will be less trouble. They won't need my assistance." Yuki was a little embarrassed.

"You're just being stubborn. When you experience more dungeons, you'll know that sometimes there aren't any new people. They all die before they even meet each other."

"This is a good thing. It can reduce many variables." Black Sword interrupted again, a little timidly, "Like this time, three newcomers gathered together for warmth and unlocked features. They can be equivalent to an old player. I still have to divide my attention."

It's full of malice, but it also makes sense. The reincarnation game doesn't care about the life and death of the players, so why should they be good people?

That's how it is. There are a total of nine players in this dungeon. The newcomers are self-contained, so there is no need to waste time to win them over, and there is no need to waste words like I did with Senior Sister Mai last time.

It was simple and efficient, and Yuki was happy to have some free time. Everyone just stood in the square and waited slowly. Before long, the strange whispering sound really rang in their ears.

【Games start】

[Regular mission, players are often confused, please survive for fifty hours and complete your respective missions]

[Tip 1: The town is filled with a fanatical atmosphere. Do not leave the town. Please pay attention to the enthusiasm of the residents.]

[2: The town usually holds a rally in the square at 12 noon every day. At this time, God's gaze will become focused and last for one hour]

[3: As night falls, enthusiasm will fade, but please don’t walk around the town casually]

[4: Players will obtain identities: believer, undercover, ordinary person and judge]

[5: 3 believers, 2 undercover agents, 3 ordinary people, 1 judge]

[6: Different prompts will be given based on the player's identity, and a notification will be issued when the player dies]

【7: Task evaluation changes with identity. 】

As usual, there was no need to remember the prompts; they were directly instilled into the mind. Every player was stunned, including the three newcomers who had joined the group for warmth. A feeling of uneasiness was spreading.

It actually divides the player identities!

The same goes for Yuki, he had encountered a similar thing in the Demon Hospital, except that there was a werewolf inside, so everyone needed to be suspicious of each other.

"The four identities, judging from their names, should be hostile to each other. Wouldn't it be unlucky for those who team up?"

He had expected this kind of gameplay and breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I was smart this time. If I had brought all the seniors in, things would have been troublesome. The identities of the four of us would have been split, and even if there was a solution, the difficulty would have been greatly increased.

Haha, if anyone wants to play dirty, let’s see what you can do this time.

He couldn't help but feel gloating, but unfortunately the veteran players were very good at hiding their emotions, so he didn't notice it.

After the reminder, the people who had gathered together instantly dispersed, and even the three newcomers who had gathered together for warmth became more suspicious of each other.

"Reincarnation game, you really want to kill people to have fun."

Yuki felt the evil thoughts, but luckily he was alone and didn't have to think so much, so he stood there and waited calmly. In a trance, he seemed to see a card turning over in front of him.

Werewolf turned into Witch Town?

It was like some board game. After a few seconds, the cards stopped flipping, and on the card was a knight wearing heavy armor and holding a sword. The strange whispering sound sounded again.

【Player Yuki】

[Your identity is, the judge. ]

Chapter 3 Piety and Madness!

Clang, clang, clang.

The church bells rang again, startling flocks of white doves in the square and bringing the players back to reality.

A strange atmosphere was spreading. Everyone was looking at each other. The scent of flowers seemed to have turned into a hallucinogen. The air was full of suspicion, and they began to distance themselves from each other unconsciously.

The identities have been drawn, and the clues obtained for each identity are bound to be different. Anyone with a normal IQ can guess that the believers and the undercover agents must be in opposition.

As for the judges and ordinary people, it is hard to say, but they are definitely not just supporting roles.

'The key is that this identity is not displayed on the player panel, and verbal communication is completely unreliable.'

Yuki licked his lips. This move was a decisive blow, which increased the eerie atmosphere to the maximum.

Different identities have different prompts, which, combined with prompt six, represent different task contents. Surviving 50 hours seems simple, but it depends on whether others let you survive.

Especially for me, is this tailor-made?

[Player Yuki, you are the judge]

[Hint 1: There is only one judge, eliminate the fanatics]

[2: The evil god will gain a bonus of faith. The more fanatical believers he has, the stronger he will be.]

[3: Do not accidentally kill or harm ordinary people and shallow believers (except players), otherwise you will be punished. If you accidentally kill too many people, you will be killed directly. ]

[4: The evil god sees you as a thorn in his side, please don't take any chances.]

No wonder there are so few copy hints, it turns out the murderous intent is here.

Yuki can analyze many problems just by taking a look at the prompts.

There is only one person, and you don't need to worry about your teammates. The enemies are cultists and evil gods. This is a hunter role, but you can't kill innocent people indiscriminately, and you can't slack off at the end.

Conversely, the player who draws the cultist also needs to kill me, so I have to hide my identity as the judge while killing to avoid being attacked by the crowd.

Yuki felt that his brain was overloaded, but he couldn't show it. No, no one could show it, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

And the personal tips can be combined with tip 7 above.

【Tip 7: Task evaluation changes with identity.】

It is not a mandatory option, but it is related to the task evaluation. Is the main task to survive for 50 hours?

"Damn it, this instance is so complicated." Pan Zi wiped his face. He had obviously got the identity. He looked at the three newcomers with a vicious look, "Who are you? Tell me the clues. Don't let me do it!"

A simple and crude method, the most important thing now is to find out what clues there are from identities other than yourself, and newcomers are the easiest to grasp.

However, his roar made the three newcomers, who were originally a little alienated, unite again. Just like Yuki's choice in the Devil's Hospital, they solved the main conflict first and then the internal conflict.

"It's a waste of effort. Do you dare to believe what they say?" The thief suddenly spoke, as if to help someone out.

"I have this thing." Pan Zi took out a small white bottle and explained, "It's a truth serum. It's absolutely reliable. Don't you want to know what the clues to the other identities are?"

The Phantom Thief hesitated, Yuki watched coldly, and Rick simply drew his pistol. This was the first time that an internal conflict broke out right at the beginning of the copy.

Just as the dark clouds slowly turned into war clouds, a cold female voice was heard.

"No, we have nine people and only four identities. It doesn't matter if they reveal the information, but what if they drag us into it?"

This hits the nail on the head. For example, there are two cultists, one is an old player and the other is a new player. The old player has found his teammates, but he is also exposed. Isn't that more dangerous?

The fierce man hesitated for a moment, and still wanted to take action forcefully, but at this time, all the old players looked over and expressed their attitude with their eyes.

Damn, none of these people are exposed.

Pan Zi was not stupid, nor did he intend to start an internal conflict. After a rough analysis, he had a general understanding:

Among the four identities, the Judge is the most threatening, and without teammates who are not afraid of being exposed, his approach is most beneficial to him.

But just now he deliberately tested and then observed attentively, and none of the veteran players hesitated. Who is the judge?

"Do you guys like guessing riddles so much?"

"Forget it. If you continue to do it forcefully, it will only prove that you are a judge. After all, only this identity is not afraid of being exposed." Yue Gong continued.

"Tsk, if you think I'm that stupid, just guess." The man looked down on her but put the props away.

The atmosphere became awkward again. Because no one knew the prompts from other players, no one dared to raise their hand to identify themselves and call teammates. Whether they were real or fake, they would become prey.

A very smart woman, most likely an undercover agent. Does this prove that she is not smart enough, or is she deliberately exposing some of her secrets in order to find another 'undercover'?

Yuki watched coldly. The girl's initiative to confront Pan Zi had already exposed certain characteristics. Judging from her silence when joining the game, she should have known the risks, but had to do it.

The dungeon has just begun and the players have been divided. There is no need to pretend to be a good person or play psychological warfare at this time, just wait quietly.

Players are bound to the plot, so as the game progresses, the players with the weakest intelligence and force will be exposed first and then eliminated.

Clang, clang, clang.

When the last few bells stopped, the town really changed. First, the residents slowly gathered in the square, then the door of the church slowly opened, and some figures walked out from inside.

It looked a bit like a Christian ceremony, with several people in front wearing gorgeous plate armor and holding halberds to lead the way. They walked very slowly, pausing for a moment after each step, full of majesty.

Then came some clergymen in gray, purple and white robes, holding strange statues in their hands.

The statues are made of gold, some are human with bull heads, some are fish bodies with horse faces, and some look like a bunch of maggots, with a twisted and weird protrusion. Compared with the clergymen who are dressed in gorgeous clothes and have solemn faces, there is a sense of disconnection and inconsistency in the style of the paintings.

“It’s them. Even though their clothes are different, it’s definitely them.”

Yuki heard Kanon mumbling, thinking that the newcomer must be being hunted by these clergy, but he was too busy to care.

How to do?

[Judge's Tip 4: The evil god sees you as a thorn in his side, so don't take any chances.]

This is obviously some kind of religious ceremony. Those statues are definitely not postmodern art. If they lock onto me later, I'll be dead.

But he couldn't run away, because the other players were not fools and were watching each other.

It was obvious to the Judge that he was against the evil god, and if he ran away at this time, his identity would definitely be exposed.

He was getting anxious, but he was still watching the scene like a bystander, as more and more people gathered in the square.

The hint had already been given that the town would gather in the square at twelve o'clock noon.

The townspeople, carrying the elderly and children, walked out of every alley, numbering as many as a thousand. The alleys were like small trickles that slowly converged into a river.

Some people looked pious and muttered to themselves as they walked; some looked very pious but actually had wandering eyes; some looked doubtful but had to do it just because of tradition; some simply kept a straight face, thinking that this was a waste of their time for fun.

Just like watching the Spring Festival Gala, some people like it, some just watch it to accompany their elders, and some are strictly forbidden by their parents and just watch it on their phones.

'No wonder there is a third tip. Not all the residents in the town are believers, but there are so many of them. How can I tell them apart?'

Yuki had played the trick of weakening other people's foundation in the Demon Hospital, so he had some experience, but the current situation was completely different.

He has to kill and eliminate them, and that cannot be done by soothing pills. If he really has to face the attacks of these people, how can he have the time to identify who is sincere and who is an accomplice?

We can find a way to do this slowly, but the key is that there are only five minutes left until twelve o'clock, and more and more people are gathering in the square. Once the religious ceremony begins, there is a high probability that we will be discovered.

Zombies, demons, evil gods, each one is more difficult to deal with than the other.

Yuki gritted his teeth lightly, but his legs seemed to be rooted to the ground and did not move an inch.

He was waiting, waiting for the 'undercover' to be unable to bear the pressure. At least literally, they were also the enemy of the town.

Time passed second by second, and his heartbeat became more and more obvious. Yuki stood at the edge of the square, and suddenly, he felt his arm being held.

The man was so nervous that he almost drew his sword, but when he turned around, he saw an old man with a hunched back and a kind face.

With a smile on his face, he exuded a kind of kindness towards everything in the world, and asked with a smile: "What are you still standing here for? Come with me to the front. The closer you are to the statue, the more blessings you will receive."

Will that thing protect you? And wouldn’t it be death for me to go to the front?

Yuki's brain was working, and he noticed that the smile on the old man's face disappeared instantly, and his eyes began to turn away.

He was a little surprised and answered decisively: "I just came to the town and wanted to take a look first. This is not against the rules, right?"

"God teaches us to love everyone equally. This certainly doesn't violate the rules." The old man glanced at the other players. After all, these people were dressed strangely and were indeed very conspicuous.

"You are tourists, or outsiders, and you don't have to follow the rules of the town, but you can stay after accepting God. Many of our compatriots have lived here for a long time."

The old man has kind eyes and a gentle tone, which makes him very likable.

"Then how can we become compatriots?" Yuki narrowed his eyes and looked away.

Almost every player is surrounded by townspeople who look exactly like him.

"Go to church and be baptized. This is the first step. As for the second step, once you are sure to give your body and soul to God, the saint will tell you."
