Death Game: Starting as a fraudster, pretending to be a god.

Faced with Lin Yu's very natural question, Renwang did not suspect anything.

After all, Lin Yu's reasons were quite valid.

While most players acquire special abilities within the Ten Realms by cultivating good relationships with the natives of the Ten Realms, there are some exceptions.

such as……

They obtained the inheritances of some powerful figures who had passed away in the Ten Realms.

While such examples are relatively rare among players, they do exist.

In the existing examples, many inheritances are not one-time events—sometimes obtaining an inheritance is just the beginning of a series of inheritances of that powerful person or the faction to which that powerful person belongs.

It was precisely because of this that Lin Yu chose to use his possession of the "Sword of Judgment" as an excuse.

As a fourth-tier expert, Ren Wang was naturally knowledgeable and didn't find anything wrong with what Lin Yu said.

The only part of this statement that might raise suspicion is that the legacy left by a powerful figure like the "Sword of Judgment" in the Night Valley might not be so easy to obtain.

And even if this inheritance is only the beginning, it is often a huge boost to the player's abilities.

but……

This point of suspicion might hold true for other players, but it is completely unfounded in the case of Lin Yu.

Given the director's reputation, it wouldn't seem unreasonable for him to suddenly reveal that he had received the inheritance of the Sword of Judgment.

Not only did "Ren-o" not suspect anything, even Yin Lan, who was standing next to him, only glanced at Lin Yu with slight surprise before calmly accepting it.

"You actually have this kind of opportunity in the Night Valley Realm."

Yin Lan sighed in surprise.

Lin Yu laughed: "Just lucky."

Renwang heard Lin Yu's words and explained, "To be honest, I don't know much about the Night Valley Realm. The process of obtaining the [Primordial Flame] was full of coincidences..."

"So, although I did see what appeared to be the site of the decisive battle between the 'Sword of Judgment' and the 'Lord of the Abyss' that day, I don't know which information will be useful to you."

"I can only tell you that I saw the purest evil and the most chaotic disorder in the depths of the abyss. The sky was distorted and the earth was cracked. Magic and all kinds of energy were mixed together. Gravity and space were reversed and disordered. Shattered souls were wailing endlessly."

"The entire space there seems to be cut and severed by the power that can directly affect the origin of the world, and the traces left by the slash back then still remain in the hundreds, turning the space within a hundred miles into a broken Rubik's Cube. Even in a chaotic and dark place like the 'Abyss,' it can be called a 'forbidden zone.'"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yu looked at Ren Wang and asked, "Was it caused by the 'Lord of the Abyss' or the 'Sword of Judgment'?"

“I don’t know, or rather, I feel something’s not right,” Renwang hesitated for a moment before saying, “Let me state first that I don’t know anything about the Night Valley Realm, but based on the rumors I’ve heard, the ‘Sword of Judgment’ is a hero of the human side of the Night Valley Realm, a divinely ordained son recognized by the three great churches of Holy Fire, Compassion, and Eternity. He should be an extremely upright saint and savior… You have received his legacy, so you may have more authority to speak on this matter than I do.”

"However, at the site of what is rumored to be the 'battleground,' I did indeed feel the powerful energy fluctuations left behind by the battle between two superior beings. Even after the passage of time, I could still sense that two beings of extremely high status, almost like gods, once fought here."

"But that's why I feel something's not right—because neither of those two powers shows any sign of being rejected by the abyss."

"Rather than a decisive battle between the 'Sword of Judgment' and the 'Lord of the Abyss,' if I were to only sense the power, I would say it's more like a battle between two dark beings, demons—the battlefield looks like it was left behind by two 'Lords of the Abyss.'"

Renwang said seriously, and Yin Lan looked doubtful.

"Could you be mistaken? Or is it just hearsay or a misconception?"

Niou shook his head: "But I did find the [Primordial Flame] in the most chaotic part of that battlefield. Moreover, I was accompanied by a monarch-level creature that I had subdued as my guide. It said that this was the 'Battleground,' and its father had witnessed the Abyss Lord's Root Incarnation being cleaved into eight pieces by the human side's 'Sword of Judgment,' which scattered all sorts of magical crystals and Root Elements on the ground—the [Primordial Flame] was the most powerful of them."

Yin Lan still had doubts: "It's also possible that the monarch-level demon's statement was incorrect, after all, he also heard it from his own father..."

Lin Yu remained silent, but he already had a general idea of ​​what was going on.

It seems that Niou has indeed found the real "battleground," and the rumors he heard are basically true.

After all, while others might not know, he certainly did...

The strongest human in the Night Valley Realm, the "Sword of Judgment," did indeed have a second identity as a pillar-level demon of the Abyss...

"It seems that she used the power of the abyss to cleave the Lord of the Abyss back then... Well, after all, using the power of demons in the abyss is like fighting on home turf, and there won't be too much suppression."

Lin Yu pondered this in his heart, but he certainly couldn't tell Ren Wang these things directly.

After all, his current persona is that of a "director," and his knowledge of Night Valley is limited to the basic information that most players already know, as well as some hidden knowledge that comes with the inheritance of the "Sword of Judgment."

Therefore, after thinking it over, Lin Yu spoke uncertainly.

“I think His Highness Niou’s feelings may not be wrong, because although I only obtained some of the most basic inheritance of the ‘Sword of Judgment’, this ability makes me feel that… the Sword of Judgment may also have the means to call upon the magic power of the abyss.”

"Otherwise, the Sword of Judgment wouldn't be the only one in all these years to pose a real threat of complete annihilation to the entire dark races of the abyss."

Lin Yu analyzed.

After hearing this, Niou was clearly intrigued by this perspective.

"That's possible... The strength of the strong may very well come from their unique characteristics."

“In short, I don’t know much about the Sword of Judgment… If you have the chance, you should go and see it for yourself,” Niou said. “The location of the ‘Battleground’ is near the base of the current fourth pillar of the Abyss. If you want to go, I recommend that you go through the Nightmare Territory and the Mind Eater Territory, and then arrive at a place that looks like the Great Rift Valley. Just grab any Dark Being and ask for directions, and they should be able to take you there.”

As Renwang spoke, Lin Yu nodded and was about to agree when Yin Lan interrupted him unhappily.

"Hey, are you out of your mind? Are you trying to advise a 'second-tier' newbie on how to go to the Abyss... or are you suggesting we go straight to the depths of the Abyss, near the territory of a pillar-level demon, the place where the Lord of the Abyss fell?"

"Are you trying to kill our 'Order's' rising star?"

Niou spread his hands: "I didn't. I just told him how to get there... I believe he will make his own judgment—when he should go and when he shouldn't go."

"He'll definitely wait until he's strong enough before setting off, right, 'Director'?"

Lin Yu nodded in response to Renwang and Yin Lan.

"That's right, I'm definitely not leaving now."

……

……

……

The first day of election activities has ended.

After leaving some staff behind, Lin Yu bid farewell to the two local staff members from the South China region, "Ren Gu" and "Pipa Tang," who were still resting at their own homes, and returned to the "Order" hotel with Liang Ye and Yin Lan.

Although many things happened inside the venue today, there were no unusual events elsewhere in Shenzhen, and the field team can be said to have had a peaceful day.

There were a few places where signs of activity suspected to be those of "plunderers" and "psychological societies" were found, but they all left quickly without any conflict or fighting.

Of course, Lin Yu did not relax because of this.

Given that both organizations are certain to take action in a few days, the peace and tranquility in other parts of Shenzhen today is merely the calm before the storm.

Moreover, during his conversation with "Nioh" just now, Lin Yu also confirmed one thing...

Niou will leave Shencheng before tomorrow night.

Not just leaving Shenzhen... he even intends to leave this world altogether and head to the God Realm to advance to the 'Fifth Order'.

Regardless of the outcome, Nioh certainly cannot be considered as a combat asset in this election.

According to Ayu's account... it seems that the "fortune teller" took the "Nioh" into account when devising the plan and prepared measures to deal with the "Nioh".

This is equivalent to the "Order" side losing a "fourth-tier" combatant for no reason.

This could very well be the key factor that affects the balance of power at that time.

"Although the 'Freedom Alliance' and the 'Psychological Society' will also get involved, and in the chaos with all parties involved, even the absence of 'Nioh,' a 'fourth-tier' combatant, may not necessarily cause a collapse, but... the absence of a 'fourth-tier' is still unsettling."

Lin Yu thought to himself with emotion.

I've done all I can regarding the situation. The only thing I can do now is probably to improve my own strength.

However, improving one's strength is not so easy. It's impossible to create one's own "exclusive item" in a short period of time. It's also difficult to improve other aspects of one's strength in a way that can instantly bring about a qualitative change in one's abilities, and a change that is enough to affect the situation...

As Lin Yu thought about this, he suddenly realized something.

It seems that such opportunities to improve one's skills do exist.

He looked at Yin Lan.

"Comrade 'Dionysus,' may I ask... about my 'trial'? Can it be brought forward?"
