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

Chapter 1470 Favorable Timing, Location, and Coincidence

"The raven's companion?"

The God of Oblivion shifted his gaze from the chessboard to the Upside-Down Tower.

The fortune teller nodded: "Yes, I sensed the raven's presence on him—it was even helping him conceal it."

The God of Oblivion nodded: "Then I do have the necessity and reason to take action against him... but that doesn't mean I'll expend too much effort dealing with him."

"At least, he's now in the territory of the 'God of Fairness and Judgment'... We're getting closer to the final version of the 'game,' and I don't want to offend a god who was originally neutral at this point."

The diviner, after hearing the words of the God of Oblivion, tapped the table: "Your Excellency, aren't you somewhat deceiving yourself... When has the God of Judgment ever been neutral?"

"Have you been turning a blind eye to his collusion with the God of Power all this time?"

The God of Oblivion spoke calmly: "You are ultimately just a demigod. Even if you have touched the realm of gods, you would not understand... In my opinion, the relationship between the God of Power and the God of Judgment can only be considered a kind of 'transaction,' based solely on the inherent characteristics of the authority of 'fairness,' so it seems as if the two have been cooperating for a long time."

"Furthermore, taking a step back... regardless of whether the 'God of Fairness and Judgment' is opposed to me, the target is now within His divine kingdom. It would not be wise for me to take the initiative to invade His divine kingdom."

"Even if I could forcibly erase that newcomer's soul, the price for me would probably be too heavy."

The diviner spoke up: "Of course I won't let you do this for nothing—as you know, I previously collected the 'Life Soul of the Lord of Mist Island'—although due to some accidents, I didn't keep it permanently, the 'cause and effect' that occurred at that moment was enough for me to see some things."

The God of Oblivion spoke up: "For example?"

"For example... the whereabouts of the authority that once belonged to the previous civilization of Kirishima."

The fortune teller said in a low voice.

“I know you are pursuing the authority of the ‘soul,’ but I have no interest in that authority… Moreover, you would never actually hand it over to me,” the God of Oblivion shook his head and said calmly, “I already have my own ideas about the authority required for advancement.”

The fortune teller listened and said, "Of course I know that... This is not me presumptuously speculating about your path to promotion, but I have indeed learned some information, and I have a gut feeling that... you might be interested in those things."

The God of Oblivion crossed his arms in front of his chest, his tentacles intertwined like a tangled ball of yarn.

"Your intuition? Tell me about it."

The diviner spoke, “Based on what I have glimpsed regarding the cause and effect of the ‘Lord of Kirishima,’ in the previous civilizations of this world, the authority they wielded included not only the ‘soul’ but also ‘memory’.”

He pointed to his head: "Memory, forgetting, that sounds like a perfect match, sir."

The previously indifferent God of Oblivion approached the table, his eyes fixed intently on the diviner: "I hope you're not joking."

The fortune teller smiled and said, "I never joke about such serious matters, Your Excellency."

“Go and erase the soul of that newcomer for me… I will then tell you all that I know about the authority of ‘memory’.”

The God of Oblivion pondered for a moment, then placed his king face down on his chessboard.

"Deal made... but I might not be able to do it."

“Whether it succeeds or fails, as long as I see you make a move, the deal is done,” the fortune teller said. “As I said, I didn’t really think you would succeed anyway.”

"So that's how it is. It's just the fact that I need to take action, not the outcome," the God of Oblivion pondered. "Aren't you afraid that after you say that, I'll deliberately hold back?"

"I believe you won't."

The fortune teller laughed.

The God of Oblivion nodded: "I certainly don't know how... but if he moves to another place, my success rate will probably be even higher—although I don't think a mere mortal will cause me any trouble, the God of Judgment is not simple."

“That’s something you don’t need to worry about,” the fortune teller said with lowered eyes. “There will naturally be other ‘helpers’ when the time comes.”

The God of Oblivion asked with curiosity, "You also invoked the power of other beings?"

The fortune teller shook his head.

"No, I didn't invite it... it was 'fate'."

"The right time, the right place, and a fortunate coincidence."

……

……

……

"Are you a member of 'Order'?"

Cheng Shuang looked at Lin Yu, her tone becoming serious.

At the same time, Lin Yu also sensed a dangerous aura emanating from this gentle older woman.

really……

This guy is hostile towards the members of 'Order'.

Lin Yu glanced at Xingren, then at Cheng Shuang, and did not deny it.

"Yes, I am a member of 'Order'."

Almond looked at Lin Yu, her face revealing a mixture of resentment and delight: "Very good, 'May May,' you do have some integrity in your actions... Very good!"

"But I want to see how you plan to leave here alive, now that you dare to admit your identity!"

Lin Yu spoke calmly.

"You can't kill anyone here."

Almond was speechless for a moment, then spoke with even more resentment: "But... I can imprison you and torture you until you die!"

Lin Yu looked at the woman, his tone still calm: "I was already imprisoned here—so I think there's some misunderstanding between us."

Almond frowned: "What misunderstanding could there be between us? You bastard of 'Order'!"

Lin Yu did not respond to Xingren, but instead looked at Cheng Shuang, who was wary of him.

“I was indeed a member of ‘Order’… but that’s in the past—now I should say I ‘used to’ be a member of ‘Order’.”

“I wasn’t lying when I told you you were a member of the ‘Raiders,’ because I have indeed joined the ‘Raiders.’”

Cheng Shuang said, "A member of 'Order,' and a 'supernova,' would defect to 'The Raiders'? That sounds incredible...it's almost a fantasy."

"How will you prove it to me?"

Almond immediately chimed in, "Don't believe him, Sister Shuang, this guy is definitely making up lies!"

"Isn't my presence here the best proof?" Lin Yu said calmly. "If I were still a member of 'Order,' how could I have been arrested?"

"Those who can get into here... are all 'guilty' people."

As Lin Yu spoke, a tall and sturdy member of the 'Raiders' group standing next to Almond spoke up.

"Oh... Could it be that he has really abandoned darkness and embraced the light?"

Another member of the "Raiders" spoke up: "Are you an idiot? We are the ones in the dark—he's abandoning the light for the dark."

Almond looked at her two colleagues, who were all physique and no substance, with a dark expression. She said helplessly and angrily, "You believe everything he says... He's obviously lying, okay?!"

“What we did wasn’t enough to warrant being in this ‘eternal cage.’ Since the ‘Order’ has the ability to put us in, it can naturally also send in members who are completely unrelated to them!”

"He might even have come specifically to locate us and destroy the base that Sister Shuang built."

Lin Yu said, "But obviously, I am not... I didn't even know such a place existed before this."

“Besides… although Sister Shuang seems to be very capable, I don’t think she could really completely hide from the gods and create such a space in a god’s territory,” Lin Yu looked at Cheng Shuang. “I think you may also know that the existence of this place… is tacitly approved by the ‘God of Fairness and Judgment’, right?”

Cheng Shuang nodded: "Yes, this is within the range that I have tested and found to be permissible by Him... or rather, for those of us who are not really criminals, He will not care too much if we go this far."

“However… even if you didn’t come here specifically for me and the others I’m protecting, you might not be an ordinary person. After all, as far as I know, outstanding members of ‘Order’ will come here for short-term ‘trials’ if they receive a reward.”

Hearing Cheng Shuang's meaningful words, Lin Yu remained expressionless, even somewhat surprised.

“I’ve heard similar things before when I was in ‘Order’. Some members with potential would be given ‘trials’ as rewards… I’ve even been told that I might be able to participate.”

Lin Yu paused for a moment, then said, "But... so their trials are conducted in places like this?"

Cheng Shuang stared at Lin Yu, trying to glean some clues from his expression, demeanor, and tone, but...

Clearly, she failed.

No one could discern anything from Lin Yu's expression—after all, within the realm of "acting skills," Lin Yu was flawless.

The formation of frost is not special.

However, Cheng Shuang did not immediately believe Lin Yu because of this.

She was not misled by Lin Yu's "performance" nor did she stray from her train of thought by following Lin Yu's words. Instead, she returned to the most essential part of the problem.

"Then how can you prove what you're saying... that you're no longer a member of 'Order'?"

"It's not that I don't believe you, but what you're saying does sound really outrageous."

Members of "Order" may leave the organization or be expelled, but it is almost impossible for anyone to directly defect from "Order" to "The Raiders".

After all, the ideologies of these two organizations are extremely diametrically opposed.

But Lin Yu heard Cheng Shuang's words...

However, he breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"Proof? Sure, let me think about how to prove it."

Lin Yu spoke, making a thoughtful gesture.

But in reality, he already had an idea in mind, but he couldn't bring it up immediately for the sake of the performance.

Lin Yu was never afraid of how to prove his "lies".

It's true that one lie often requires a thousand more to cover it up...

But after Lin Yu became a "fraudster", he always had a certain feeling.

Weaving a thousand lies, a thousand perfectly harmonious lies, doesn't seem like such a difficult thing.

Lin Yu wasn't afraid of "covering up lies," he was only afraid that the other party wouldn't even give him a chance to prove it.

After five seconds of thought, Lin Yu still used his most common old method.

He took out...
