Chapter 180
One person in the team had the special privilege of obtaining living supplies. Shen Yue asked him for a piece of paper and a pen.
Half an hour later, Shen Yue gathered the team together to announce to them the cumulative score system, detailing how people of different roles could contribute to the team in order to obtain points.
From the big picture to the minute details, no aspect was overlooked.
Even the most discerning people in the team had to admit this scoring system was theoretically the most fair.
It was hard to imagine this was something Shen Yue had written in just half an hour.
With no objections from anyone, Shen Yue's team decided on the rules for distributing werewolf ownership rights based on total cumulative points, and temporary peace was achieved.
Even if this peace was false, Shen Yue's purpose was only to maintain order for a period of time.
The werewolf game lasted a total of three days. Shen Yue used the first day to screen and obtain pieces she could utilize, and the second day was for the hunt. Th.ê most uptodate novels are published on n(0)velbj)n(.)co/m
The current werewolf game area was very large with dispersed numbers of people, and with a clumsy, overweight target of a 20-plus person team, the method Shen Yue adopted was to wait in ambush.
From the moment she fired that flaming arrow on the 14th, her plan to lie in ambush had already begun.
She didn't extinguish that fiery arrow, but placed it in a suitable location, just waiting for the right time for that spark to ignite the entire forest zone, driving the people inside to run towards the central clearing.
Which was where Shen Yue and the others were currently camped.
The first werewolf they had captured now was just the beginning.
Sure enough, before long, just as Shen Yue had expected, people trickled in succession, most were lone wolves, a few formed small teams, but compared to a 20-plus person team they were lacking.
Restricted by the points system, these captured people were not killed, but were instead brought in front of Shen Yue for her to discern if they were werewolves or not.
Werewolves to one side, civilians to the other. Amongst the civilians, those with and without special privileges were also treated differently.
No one doubted Shen Yue’s judgement on the authenticity of the werewolves. Firstly, they weren’t yet at the stage of considering such matters; secondly, human greed determined that everyone present would not be satisfied with distribution based merely on points.
So Shen Yue's answers on who the werewolves were didn't actually matter.
The moment this 20-odd person team disintegrated, all the rules became useless. How to maximize benefits amidst the chaos was what each person needed most to consider.
Of course, there were people in the team who wanted to stir up trouble, just as there were people who simply wanted to stay alive. For these people, apart from trusting Shen Yue, they were also filled with adoration for her.
Mo Aman frowned as she watched the doll-faced girl leave. She couldn’t help asking, “Boss lady, you’re not mad?”
Shen Yue shook her head. “It’s not yet time to get mad. Meaningless anger will only muddle the brain.”
Mo Aman’s eyes lit up. “As expected of the boss lady!”
Shen Yue slowly got dressed, even allowing Mo Aman to retie her hair.
Soon, the male side also finished their confirmations, not one person had markings resembling a werewolf.
This proved one thing: Shen Yue’s judgement was 100 percent accurate.
Although nothing overt was said after reaching this conclusion, the earlier bedlam had nevertheless been quelled without notice. Voices questioning Shen Yue also ceased to appear.
Afterwards, escapees from the forest zone kept showing up. Under Shen Yue’s arrangements, as long as those people entered a certain perimeter they would inevitably be captured.
After observing for a period, once Shen Yue determined there would temporarily be no issues, she turned and stealthily headed towards the forest alone.
The team members were busy hunting and didn’t notice Shen Yue’s disappearance.
......
Shen Yue walked straight towards a particular spot, seemingly already knowing where she ought to go without the slightest hesitation.
Half an hour later, braving the flames that now raged fiercely around, Shen Yue found Danni La and her siblings inside a burrow.
Since getting tossed into this game, the few of them had hidden, as per Shen Yue’s instructions, inside the nearest concealed burrow they could find.
Danni La didn’t know why Shen Yue would know there was a burrow here, nor why her siblings would coincidentally be gathered around her when she opened her eyes, but she still hid herself at the fastest speed possible.
There was no food or water inside the burrow, but since there was no physical exertion, going hungry for two days was still bearable.
Yet each time someone approached, Danni La still couldn’t help feeling afraid. Now, with the fires spreading, she knew that if she didn't escape soon there would only be death. But escaping was akin to betraying Shen Yue.
Danni La had no choice. She could only stop her increasingly agitated younger siblings, still curled up inside the burrow feeling the oxygen gradually diminish.
Her mind grew increasingly muddled, her senses gradually numbing. She didn’t know how much time had passed before she finally heard the voice she desperately yearned for in her dreams.
"Danni La, I'm here to pick you up."
