Chapter 2 Lying

Just when I thought it was just an ordinary day, I found that I was caught in the final destination. Just when I thought I could escape by just continuing to participate in death games, I found that everyone began to awaken to supernatural powers. Just when I thought this was the "place to create gods," everything was heading towards annihilation.

The woman's screams stopped, and everyone's thoughts stopped abruptly.

The men who were shouting abuse just now also fell silent at this moment.

Now it is no longer a matter of "illegality", this weirdo in front of me really knows how to kill people.

After more than a minute of silence, the goat head nodded slightly: "Very good, nine, it seems you have all calmed down."

Everyone changed their expressions, but no one dared to speak. As he said, it was really "Nine" now.

Qi Xia stretched out her trembling hands and took off a pink-yellow thing from her face.

The crushed brain was still beating slightly with body temperature, but within a few seconds, it lost its vitality like a deflated rubber ball.

"Please allow me to introduce myself..." The goat head stretched out his bloody finger, pointed at his mask, and said, "I am the "human goat", and you are the "participants." "

Everyone was startled after hearing this, and then a little confused, "human sheep", "participant"?

"You are brought together now to participate in a game and ultimately create a "god". "The goat head said calmly.

These two consecutive sentences made everyone frown.

After getting along with each other for a few minutes, everyone has roughly understood that the man in front of them is a madman, but this madman said that he wants to create a "god"?

"Create...what god?" the muscular young man asked nervously.

"The same god as "Nuwa"! "The goat head danced and said, exuding the smell of mutton, and his voice was ferocious, "How wonderful! You will witness history with us. Nuwa once created mankind, but turned into a rainbow when she patched the sky... We cannot lose Nuwa, so we must create a Nuwa! There is a great task waiting for "God" to do it! "

His voice gradually became louder, and his whole body seemed to be vibrating.

"Nuwa..." The sturdy young man frowned, feeling that this matter was too difficult to accept. He paused and asked, "Are you a certain religion?"

"Religion?" The goat head was slightly startled, turned to the young man, and said, "We are much grander than "religion", we have a "world"! "

After hearing this, everyone became silent again.

The muscular man's question was very specific. What this sheep-headed man did was no different from a cult, but most cults tended to make up a new god rather than use a heroic figure like Nuwa.

"In that case..." the muscular man continued to ask, "What do you want us to "participate" in here? "

"I said, it's just a game." Goat Head replied without thinking, "If you win, one of you will become a "god." "

"The Yan family shovel..." The flower-armed man seemed to have calmed down, and he cursed and said, ""Feng Shen Bang", right? What if we can't win? "

"We can't win..." Goat Head looked at the blood on his hands and said with some disappointment, "It would be a pity if we can't win..."

Although he didn't say it directly, everyone understood what he meant.

If you can't win, you die.

Among the options he gave, there was no "getting out alive".

Either become what he calls a "god", or die here like that young man with a blooming head.

"If everyone understands...then this "game" has officially begun. This game is called "Liar". "The goat head slowly took out a stack of papers from his arms, then casually walked to everyone and put down a piece of paper.

Then he took out a few pens and distributed them to everyone.

There were a lot of blood stains on the table, and everyone's white paper was stained with red when it fell on the table. Turn over the paper and wipe it with your hands. The blood red spreads like paint, making the white paper redder.

"Next, I want each of you to tell a story about the last thing that happened before you came here." Goat Head continued, "But please note that among all the storytellers, one person told lies. When Jiu After everyone has finished telling their stories, you will start voting. If all nine people choose "Liar", the liar will be eliminated and the rest will survive. If one of them chooses wrong, the liar survives and the rest are eliminated. "

"liar……?"

Everyone was a little confused. Would anyone really lie at this critical moment of life and death?

"Wait, can we discuss "tactics"? "The muscular man suddenly asked.

"Whatever." Goat Head nodded, "Before the game starts, you have one minute to discuss your tactics. Should you use them now...or later?"

"I want to use it now." The muscular man said without thinking.

"Please."

The goat head took a step back, away from the table.

The muscular man pursed his lips, then looked around at everyone, avoiding the headless corpse lying on the table as much as possible, and said, "I don't know if any of you are going to lie later. But this "rule" sounds too arbitrary. If only one person votes wrongly, we will all die. And even if we make the right choice, the liar will die, so it seems that there will be dead people anyway. Now I think of a way for everyone to survive..."

When everyone heard this, they all looked at the muscular man.

Is it possible to keep everyone alive?

"That means none of us lie." The strong man didn't wait for everyone to figure it out, and immediately announced the answer, "All nine of us told the truth, and finally wrote on this piece of paper, "No one lies." Such words We can survive without breaking the rules. "

The white coat tapped his fingers slightly on the table, and after a moment he said, "Your plan is very good, but there is a premise, that is, 'you are not a liar yourself.' But how should we believe you?" If you are a liar, then we all write "No one lies", and you will be the only one who survives in the end. "

"What are you talking about?" The muscular man looked slightly angry, "If I were a liar, how could I make such a suggestion? I just need to protect myself."

The goat head waved his hand slightly and said, "One minute is up, please stop communicating."

The two men snorted coldly and stopped talking.

"Now, please draw cards." Goat Tou pulled out a small stack of cards from his pants pocket. The cards looked about the size of playing cards, with the words "Nuwa Game" written on the back.

The muscular man was stunned and asked, "What is this?"

"This is an "identity badge." "Goat Head laughed and said, "If you draw "Liar", you must lie. "

The muscular man gritted his teeth fiercely: "Are you kidding us?! Why didn't you tell us in advance if there were such rules?!"

"This is to teach you a lesson." Goat Head said with a sneer, "You asked me if we could discuss tactics before I finished explaining the rules. It was you who wasted a precious minute, not me for not telling you in advance."

The muscular man's face looked a little ugly, but he still swallowed his anger when he thought of the goat-head's murderous methods.

In one minute, all nine people drew a card from the goat head's hand, but no one dared to open it and take a look.

If the card says "Liar", it becomes a question of whether you live or someone else lives.

The hands of the four girls were shaking slightly, and the faces of the men were not pretty.

What is drawn here is not "identity", but "life and death".

Qi Xia took a deep breath, casually clasped her card with her hand, and then moved it in front of her.

Take a look.

The word "liar" was clearly written on it.
