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

Chapter 1500 Travel Trial Pack Soul

As Lin Yu spent more time with Lao Zheng and his own strength improved, his understanding of the "Death Game" and the Ten Realms deepened, and he gradually came to understand the true strength level of the first "Freud".

At first, Lao Zheng's image was relatively awe-inspiring, and people always felt that his peak period was unfathomable.

But as Lin Yu learned more, he gradually understood...

When Lao Zheng said that he was not good at "fighting head-on" and that "his head-on strength was relatively weak," he was not being modest.

This guy is indeed a 'Tier 3' player, and a rather experienced and talented one at that...

However, from the items Old Zheng left behind and the way he used his mental power, Lin Yu could easily deduce one thing...

Even at his peak, Lao Zheng probably rarely engaged in direct confrontations with others; in most cases, he would try to avoid fair duels or skirmishes.

Although after becoming his own "tool", Lao Zheng's only positive record was still quite impressive. He once used Lin Yu's body to directly confront "Chosen One of Life" Arlan Mercury and did not lose.

But... that was because they had the advantage of favorable timing, location, and people. Allan had long attributed his "chosen one" status to his brother, and they were fighting on the sidelines of the Nightless City. They would be somewhat wary of Nightless City's Yonglian and would not be able to act freely.

At that time, Lao Zheng was able to use a large number of fresh corpses to fight against life with death, and he also had a large amount of spiritual power that Lin Yu obtained through fraud.

But it was during that match that Lin Yu saw it...

Old Zheng is indeed not good at direct combat.

Most of his items and abilities are designed for long-term planning. Correspondingly, Lao Zheng possesses extremely strong abilities in concealment, detection, perception, and remote manipulation.

Even without having discussed this topic in depth with Lao Zheng, Lin Yu could easily imagine what Lao Zheng's activity characteristics were like in the [dungeon] and in reality back then.

Back then, Old Zheng could definitely be described as "elusive" and "mysterious".

This incident also provides further evidence—after Old Zheng died in Kirishima, both the Psychological Society and Order still attached great importance to the legacy he left behind.

Especially the "Order" faction—their treatment of Lao Zheng's "props" was no less elaborate than that of the "Nioh" faction.

If most of them really understood Lao Zheng's true situation... Lin Yu felt that 'order' would definitely not be so tense.

If Old Zheng is truly strong enough, no matter how weak he was when he was setting up his plans on Kirishima Island, or how outrageous the effects of "Fluoxetine" were, he couldn't possibly be killed by someone of a higher rank!

but……

Even though Lin Yu knew that Zheng Jianshen and the first generation "Freud" were not as powerful as rumored, and that as "Tier 3" players, they might not even be on the list by today's standards—at least Lin Yu couldn't imagine how Old Zheng would win against "Ayu" and "Gambler" Li Hua, who were both "Tier 3" powerhouses.

But Lin Yu would still choose to completely and unreservedly hand over control of his body to Lao Zheng once again at this moment, when he was facing the hostility and pursuit of the gods.

This is not just because Lin Yu is currently under the influence of the "Frost" authority, and his thoughts and soul power are sluggish and frozen, leaving him with no other choice.

The reason for choosing Lao Zheng is actually quite simple.

Just as Lin Yu knew...

Old Zheng's positive abilities are weak, but even with such weak positive abilities, he is still the undisputed leader of the Psychological Society, a major threat to Order, and has a formidable reputation on Kirishima with the illustrious feat of slaying the "Lord of Kirishima"...

This is enough to demonstrate just how strong Lao Zheng's abilities are in "maneuvering" and "avoiding confrontation".

Lin Yu could probably guess it.

"You must have had contact with deities, Old Zheng, right?"

In the spirit form of the [Eye of the Gray Spirit], Old Zheng led Lin Yu as they swiftly moved between the walls of the theater.

For Lin Yu, the "spiritualization" state is extremely taxing. Although the consumption of mental energy has become almost negligible through Lin Yu's practice, maintaining this state requires Lin Yu to concentrate highly on maintaining the output of mental energy. Therefore, if Lin Yu maintains this state for too long, he will still feel dizzy, lightheaded, and spiritually exhausted.

But Lao Zheng looks much more relaxed than Lin Yu!

For Lin Yu, spiritification was a "special means" that he would only use at critical moments, but in Lao Zheng's hands, it almost became a skill for getting around.

Therefore, while maintaining the two of them in their spirit form, Lao Zheng even had the energy to answer Lin Yu's questions.

"It's more than just having come into contact with gods... To be honest, boss, this is the second time I've even tried to escape from the clutches of the gods."

Lin Yu asked curiously, "Which deity did you offend, Kirishima or something?"

Old Zheng shook his head: "It's not from Kirishima... It's a deity whose authority and 'dreams' he offended while collecting 'spiritual matter'."

Lin Yu pondered, "A dream... It sounds like a higher level of your abilities. You managed to escape from that. You're really something, Lao Zheng."

Old Zheng sighed helplessly, "Don't mention it, boss. Actually, I didn't run away back then—although I had to deal with it for a long time and I almost managed to escape completely, but I just didn't run away."

"I paid a heavy price to be spared—so, to be honest, boss, my success rate of escaping from the clutches of the gods is actually zero percent."

“First of all, with such a small sample size and only one item, it has little reference value,” Lin Yu said, struggling against his frozen thoughts. “Secondly… the more you say that, the more I feel… it seems like we have it in the bag, based on my understanding of you.”

Old Zheng laughed: "Hey, after all, the authority of 'Frost' doesn't sound like it's good at finding people, and it's just an avatar, while the real body is still locked up in prison... I'm sure I can escape."

"For beings that don't have many ways to counter 'mental' attacks, even 'gods'... are not beyond my 'handling' capabilities."

During this stealthy escape, Lao Zheng learned about the current situation of the "God of Frost" from Lin Yu.

This also proves that... Lao Zheng's escape skills were indeed up to par.

They had been silently wandering in spirit form within the walls and floors of this building for a long time, but the "Frost God" still hadn't caught up with them.

During the continuous movement, Lao Zheng's spiritual power also silently extended outward while maintaining a spiritual state, leaving behind spiritual power seeds as node markers—in the form of soul fragments.

Although Lao Zheng did not possess the technique for splitting the soul, he could ask Lin Yu to do so.

With enough mental energy nodes, the theater, whose terrain and topography were previously unknown to Lao Zheng, now seemed to have map markings—and he could also use these node markings to get a general idea of ​​the theater's overall situation.

Although the Frost God seems to have concealed himself through some means, even without trying to pinpoint the Frost God's location, the knowledge of the theater's internal structure alone is enough to give Old Zheng a higher "chance" of escaping completely.

Of course... even if he figured out the structure of the theater, Old Zheng didn't intend to play hide-and-seek with the God of Frost in this theater until the end of time, until the "Eternal Cage" returned to normal.

"Alright... Boss, after all this detour, we're almost at the exit of this 'theater'—although 'drama' is on your side, it's really unwise to deal with an incarnation of a god in this limited 'space'."

“Although a complete and independent authority is of a very high status, it will ultimately be suppressed compared to gods and divine authority. At that time, the territory that is similar to a kingdom formed by this ‘dramatic’ authority may be eroded by the other party and turned into a temporary ‘Frost God Kingdom’. Then the problem will be huge.”

"So... I think it's best to risk leaving here and returning to the 'Eternal Cage' now—although the entrance and exit of this realm are fixed, we probably can't cross the 'realm' exit in the form of 'spirits,' so it's likely that the other side will inevitably notice us, so there's definitely a risk involved."

"So... boss, what's your opinion?"

As Old Zheng spoke, he still left the choice to Lin Yu before making a decision.

Lin Yu has always been the type who believes in "not using those he doubts and not doubting those he uses." Since he has chosen to entrust the entire escape plan to Lao Zheng, he will naturally adopt Lao Zheng's suggestions.

"I trust your judgment, just do as you think."

As Lin Yu spoke, Old Zheng nodded.

"Then get ready, boss—let's go!"

As Old Zheng spoke, he released his "spiritual form" the next moment, and the two of them fell from the ceiling!

Inside the theater, Lin Yu and Lao Zheng appeared in the lobby of the cinema, just a step away from the door Lin Yu entered.

Just as the two figures appeared...

A thin layer of frost suddenly covered the carpet on the front hall floor—then, the figure of the "God of Frost" slowly "condensed" and appeared in the direction of the door!

“You run very fast... but just as I predicted, you'll eventually have to leave here.”

The God of Frost spoke calmly.

Lin Yu was speechless for a moment because the "freezing delay" phenomenon had not worsened again.

But Lao Zheng laughed.

“You arrived very quickly—and just as I expected, you arrived the instant we showed up.”

"In that case... you'll miss our real escape route!"

Frosty mist enveloped Lin Yu and Old Zheng, but the next moment...

The God of Frost frowned.

"fake?"

Old Zheng burst into laughter.

"It's genuine, but it's just a sample pack!"

The next moment, Old Zheng and Lin Yu's figures in the front hall "collapsed" into...

Two tiny fragments of the soul.
