Chapter 29 - World-Ending Witch, Advancing to the Top 24!
Hand Over Thoughts Team Room.
Huang Manmiao became extremely excited after seeing the massive score appear on the screen.
Wang Changsheng was able to participate in the official national competition directly from the substitute team because the last veteran of their team, Wei Gou, had been poached by Gun Shoots Like a Dragon.
Out of necessity, they had to pick a general from among the dwarves and let Wang Changsheng take the field.
However, who could have imagined that Wang Changsheng, who wasn't even an official member, could lead their team to successfully advance to the top 24 in a national competition?
Even more so!
This match received a unanimous recommendation from all the judges, earning a high score of a full 10 points!
It broke the highest historical record since the WPL began!
Although luck is a factor in Werewolf games,
No matter what,
At this moment,
Hand Over Thoughts will be written into the Werewolf history books because of Wang Changsheng alone!
Huang Manmiao chuckled incessantly with excitement.
"That Gun Shoots Like a Fart team was only four points ahead of us, and this time Little Wang won ten points straight! With the way their Wolf Team played, their score will probably be deducted! Hahahaha! You dare poach my people? I'll show you what happens when you poach!"
"For this national competition and the World Championship, you guys can just get eliminated!"
Huang Manmiao's high spirits infected the other team members.
They also became completely excited.
Not only that, but in every team's room,
the expressions of all the coaches and players were more or less the same.
Every single one of them was stunned by such a high score.
God Slaying Team Room.
"How many points did Zigao get?" The God Slayer coach sat on the sofa, not looking at the screen, and asked the team member beside him.
"He... because he misidentified the target and didn't do much else, even though he got the Seer card... he only got three points for the camp victory."
A short-haired team member nearby glanced at the screen and then answered with a slight hesitation.
The God Slayer coach sighed softly.
"I told you guys long ago to listen to others' opinions more when analyzing logic, and not to always be stubborn in your own perspective, but you just wouldn't listen..."
He shook his head, his expression full of helplessness: "This round of the match was practically giving away points. If we could have seized the opportunity and added a few more points, we might have moved up a few spots in the rankings."
He knew his team members very well.
He didn't know who they picked it up from, but every one of them was more willing to stubbornly believe in the logic they themselves had deduced.
Unless they hit a dead end.
Sometimes this was a good trait; they wouldn't be easily deceived or bewitched by the werewolves and could stick to their own ideas.
But at other times... the God Slayer coach sighed again.
At this time, the Commentator also began to summarize the scores of all the players.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Player 1 Werewolf:
Self-killed on the first night and was eliminated. Forcefully jumped as the Witch, but it didn't affect any results.
Utterly useless, score -3.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Player 2 Villager:
Although he sided correctly and expressed suspicion toward Player 5 and Player 6, he voted to exile a Villager during the voting phase.
Mediocre, score +3.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Player 3 Wolf Gun:
Forcefully jumped as the Seer with the gun, but almost no one believed him.
His identity was even read by the Witch on the first day and he was poisoned to death.
Utterly useless, score -4.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Player 4 Hunter:
Sided correctly and identified Player 5's Werewolf identity, choosing to vote for Player 5.
However, the exile failed because of certain players.
After being killed on the last night, he fired his shot to take down the last Werewolf.
Outstanding, score +5.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Player 5 Werewolf:
Although he discussed a good tactic with his Wolf Teammates, his judgment of the cards in the outer positions was a major blunder, leading to the complete collapse of the Wolf Team.
Utterly useless, score -3.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Player 6 Werewolf:
Under the extreme disadvantage of the Wolf Team, he cooperated closely with his only remaining Wolf Teammate.
However, because he blindly trusted his teammate's judgment at night and the message passed during the day, he jumped as the Hunter.
As a result, his identity was directly exposed by Player 7 Witch, and he self-destructed to leave the game.
Utterly useless, score -3.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Player 7 Witch:
Read that Player 1 was a wolf on the first night.
Instead of using the antidote, she used the poison on Player 3 Wolf Gun on the first night, gaining a huge advantage for the Good Guys.
During the speech phase, she forced out Player 5 and Player 6. In the voting phase, all her votes were on werewolves.
Her identity as the Witch was also completely hidden, causing the werewolves to make wrong judgments and miss key kills for two consecutive nights, resulting in a Peaceful Night.
Three out of the four werewolves were eliminated because of you, strongly leading the Good Guys to victory.
World-Ending Witch, score +10!
------------------------------------------------------------------
Player 8 Guard:
Sided correctly but voted incorrectly, and failed to protect a single person correctly.
Mediocre, score +3.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Player 9 Villager:
While everyone else sided correctly, you alone cast the wrong sheriff badge vote.
During the speech phase, when you should have explained yourself, you failed to do so and were pushed out by the werewolves.
Utterly useless, score +3.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Player 10 Seer:
Verified a Golden Water but didn't listen to the Golden Water's suggestion.
He forcibly led the werewolves to push out Player 9.
During the speech phase, he thought Players 7 and 9 might be a pair of wolves and chose to verify Player 7.
The last Confirmed Kill never appeared.
Utterly useless, score +3.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Player 11 Villager:
As a Villager with no extra information, he sided correctly while on the podium and gave his Seer excellent advice.
Unfortunately, he met the wrong people.
Even though he voted correctly in the voting phase, a Good Guy was still exiled.
Commendable, score +4.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Player 12 Villager:
From a Villager's perspective, sided correctly, voted correctly, and spoke correctly.
Commendable, score +4.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Among them, Player 3 Furious's Gun Shoots Like Dragon Team,
due to one positive and one negative score,
was directly pushed out of the top 24.
Honorably eliminated!
The last spot was taken by Hand Over Thoughts.
Even more than that, because of Wang Changsheng's full 10 points, Hand Over Thoughts rose another 15 places, reaching tenth place!
With this result,
the entire venue erupted again.
The two Commentators also shouted with passion:
"Congratulations, congratulations to Hand Over Thoughts! Becoming one of the top twenty-four in the WPL 2023 Werewolf National Tournament!"
"This is the last spot to enter the top 24! Now, they will be eligible to take the place of Gun Shoots Like a Dragon and continue!"
"Will Hand Over Thoughts be able to enter the national finals or even be selected for the World Championship? Let's wait and see!"
The entire audience was cheering.
"That was so cool! He literally extended his team's life! As expected of Changsheng!"
"Hand Over Thoughts only had 24 points originally, a full 4 points behind Gun Shoots Like a Dragon in twenty-fourth place! But now Gun Shoots Like a Dragon dropped 4 points themselves, while Hand Over Thoughts went straight to 34 points! Ranked tenth!"
"This is simply changing fate against the heavens! Hand Over Thoughts should let him play in the next match too, right? No, I must see him appear in the next match!"
"Changsheng, Changsheng! Changsheng, Changsheng! From now on, I'm a fan of Changsheng! Is the official account of Hand Over Thoughts called this? I'm going to follow them!"
"What's my Brother Changsheng's full name? Why didn't I see it? How can Hand Over Thoughts be so slow! Within one minute, I want to see all the information on my Brother Changsheng!"
