Chapter 409 - A Huge Disadvantage
Chapter 409 – A Huge Disadvantage
Yun Lintian constantly activated Shadow Step, rushing toward Yang Mengli. His speed was too fast, leaving Liang San, who was proud of his speed, in the dust.
A few minutes later, Yun Lintian's Spiritual Sense suddenly captured three women moving in his direction. When he looked at them carefully, he immediately recognized their identities.
"Yun Lintian?" Lin Xinyao said cautiously. She seemed to perceive Yun Lintian's presence as well, but she couldn't see his appearance clearly.
Yun Lintian was surprised slightly seeing Lin Xinyao here with Yang Mengli and Hua Wanru. With a few flashes, he arrived before Lin Xinyao's group and said. "Where are the enemies?"
"Brother Yun!" Hua Wanru was relieved upon seeing Yun Lintian. She didn't have to worry about Zhao Yebai's pursuit anymore.
"They had retreated." Yang Mengli said.
"Retreat? Who are they?" Yun Lintian was puzzled. The enemies had been enhanced by the night's buff, and Lin Xinyao shouldn't be their opponents, yet why did they choose to retreat?
"Their leader is Zhao Yebai from the White Feather Sect. He's famous for his meticulous personality. When he saw we didn't flee right away after we distanced from them, he immediately called for a retreat." Lin Xinyao explained.
"I see. He probably guesses that there are your people nearby." Yun Lintian nodded his head. "Have all of you known the werewolves can feel each other's presence?"
The three girls glanced and each other and shook their heads.
Yang Mengli suddenly said. "This means us, the villagers, are at a terrible disadvantage. It doesn't matter if we can vote for one of them. As long as the werewolves are united, they can win by killing all of us in the end."
Yun Lintian added. "Originally, the advantage of the villager is that a werewolf cannot easily identify its fellow werewolf. They can make a mistake by voting for the fellow werewolf. But this ability has ruined everything and gives the werewolf's side a huge advantage instead. More importantly, we can't simply gather the villagers and doctors, as I reckon we will be sent to a random location in the next round. So, if we continue to focus on this, we will never win the game."
Silence descended, and the four of them fell into deep thoughts. It seemed the only way to win this game was to kill the werewolf during the night, but how was that possible?
Letting Li Qiang go was a good decision for Yun Lintian. He wasn't afraid Li Qiang would betray him because he had left a concealing silver needle in the latter's body. This allowed Yun Lintian to locate Li Qiang at any time. As long as Li Qiang met other werewolves, he would immediately track them down and kill them.
"What should we do now?" Hua Wanru asked helplessly. She couldn't come up with any solution.
Everyone involuntarily looked at Yun Lintian, waiting for his idea.
Yun Lintian shook his head. "It's difficult to tell at the moment. We have to experience the first trial first. I am confident the werewolves would either vote for Miss Lin or me. We can get some information at that time. Right now, we have to find other villagers and doctors to prevent them from dying under the werewolves' hands. At the same time, we can use this chance to get rid of the werewolves."
"I know where others are." Lin Xinyao suddenly said. Before this, she had contacted all the Frozen Moon Palace's disciples and roughly knew their locations.
Yun Lintian was about to say something. He suddenly perceived Liang San's presence and quickly sent a sound transmission to the girls. "Someone is coming. His name is Liang San. He claims to be a villager, but I don't believe him. Just be careful."
The girls nodded their heads and turned to look at the newcomer, who was running toward them.
Liang San slowed down as he approached Yun Lintian's group. His face was filled with incredible when he saw Lin Xinyao standing among the group. When he arrived a few steps away from the group, he stopped his track and cautiously introduced himself. "Hello, Frozen Moon fairies. My name is Liang San from the Mystery Hall. Senior Brother Yun had rescued me earlier, and I wanted to follow him. Please take care of me."
Lin Xinyao didn't say anything while Yang Mengli and Hua Wanru simply gave the nod.
Yun Lintian turned to Liang San and asked. "How's your side?"
Liang San hurriedly replied. "Including me, the Mystery Hall students are villagers."
"Oh?" Yun Lintian's brows raised slightly, looking at Liang San with disbelief on his face.
Liang San knew it was too unbelievable. He tried to explain further. "Among the ten Mystery Hall students, three of them died on the first stage, leaving seven of us. I can only say we are lucky to be on the same side."
Yun Lintian took a deep look at Liang San for a moment and said. "Do you know where they are?"
Liang San shook his head. "They are scattering all over the mythical realm. I'm not sure where they are now since they keep moving all the time." He paused for a second and added. "The nearest one is on the southern side. I believe he's running toward the west."
Yun Lintian thought for a moment and said. "Then we can go west."
Since the other four had no objection, the group immediately set off toward the west direction. They maintained a moderate speed while searching the vicinity along the path.
While they were threading along the snowfield, the moon in the sky had gradually faded away, replaced by a bright sun. The change in the sky was extremely fast, no different from turning a light switch on and off.
Following that, Hongyue's voice immediately resounded within everyone's mind.
"Time up. Everyone will return to the square in the next five seconds."
Yun Lintian's group stopped their movement and glanced at each other.
"Try to gather information as much as you can.." Yun Lintian reminded them before shrouding with white light and disappearing from the place.
