Chapter 1509 The Myriad Transformations Saint Monarch Appears Again
Seeing the two newcomers, it wasn't just Lao Zheng who felt a lot of pressure.
After glancing at it, Lin Yu also sensed for the first time that something was amiss.
Originally, he asked Lao Zheng to hold off the second generation "Freud" because Lin Yu was very sure that the second generation would never directly kill "Schreber" since he cared so much about Lao Zheng, the first generation.
Even though Schreiber had killed Potassium Chloride in front of Freud and had such a deep-seated grudge, Lin Yu knew that hatred probably wasn't a high priority in the heart of this second-generation Freud.
Otherwise, she should have killed Fluoxetine long ago.
Moreover, most members of the Psychological Society probably do not believe in the theory of "repaying grievances and taking revenge".
They viewed everything as a "trial"—some radical members even believed that dying at the hands of a potential "player" was a "good end"—after all, it meant they had successfully contributed to stimulating the other's potential and enhancing the overall strength of the players.
Just like the second-generation figure mentioned earlier regarding Lao Zheng's remarks—clearly, in the eyes of this second-generation "Freud," Lao Zheng is also such a radical.
Of course... Lin Yu knew that Old Zheng wasn't actually like that.
But in summary…
After confirming that the second-generation leader wouldn't go for the kill, Lin Yu was still confident that Lao Zheng could hold his own against the other party.
After all, Lin Yu had just combined the mental power-related [items], including the "legacy" he originally inherited from Lao Zheng and some [items] that Lin Yu himself later acquired that could be combined.
With the "Eternal Cage" suppressing the effects of every extraordinary power, even though Lin Yu knew that this second-generation "Freud" was a top expert ranked fifth on the player leaderboard... Lin Yu didn't think that Old Zheng couldn't hold his own against him.
This is especially important when the other party's primary objective is to capture the victim alive.
Zhao Zilong's ability to charge in and out of Changban Slope seven times was certainly due to his own bravery, but Prime Minister Cao's order to capture him alive was equally crucial.
Lin Yu trusted Lao Zheng—just as Lin Yu had previously been willing to let him take over his duties and let Lao Zheng lead him to escape from the pursuit of the Frost God.
Old Zheng's ability to navigate situations is absolutely reliable.
Moreover, Lin Yu doesn't need Lao Zheng to buy him too much time—once he breaks through the "wall of separation" and opens the passage to the central core area, Lin Yu will naturally take Lao Zheng and run away.
Provided that……
The opponent's lineup cannot be too outrageous.
For Lao Zheng, a second-generation "Freud" and a "fourth-tier" "player" is probably already a bit of a stretch.
Lin Yu immediately recognized the two newly appeared figures.
Lin Yu was very perceptive about the aura of authority and the people from the Gray Zone—among the players, he was almost among the most perceptive in both aspects.
After all, there are very few players who possess [items] strongly related to "authority", and the only "players" who have retained their complete memories after entering the "Gray Zone" are actually just myself and Li Nian.
The combination of the two, which allowed Lin Yu to simultaneously perceive the aura of the Gray Domain and the aura of authority... Lin Yu naturally knew very well where these two guys came from.
"The right to live".
The spokesperson for the embodiment of gray domain authority and life.
It can also be called...
“Sages”.
With two beings who are almost godlike joining the battle to assist the second-generation 'Freud,' Lin Yu was somewhat unsure whether Old Zheng could hold on.
after all……
Although these "rights to live" are mostly subject to various restrictions and weakening after leaving the Gray Zone, even considering these weakenings, Lin Yu understands that as long as these guys retain even a little bit of their abilities, they are still extremely troublesome.
The power of "authority" often has various powerful "mechanisms" in itself!
and so……
Even if the second-generation "Freud" only asked the two of them to assist him and confirm that Lao Zheng would not run away, the time Lao Zheng could buy would probably be greatly reduced.
While it won't take too long to overcome the "dividing wall," it will still require some time.
not to mention……
Lin Yu knew that these two sages were likely capable of "observing" him.
Once they realized that his purpose was to stop him, Lin Yu became uncertain whether he could deal with these two sages while keeping the "Boundary Wall" open.
In particular, Lin Yu noticed that one of the two sages seemed to be someone he knew.
That mirror image... in both aura and appearance, was somewhat similar to the guy I encountered in a special little world within the Mirror World during my trip to the Gray Domain*.
"The Holy Lord of Myriad Transformations"—who claims to be the strongest hero, the highest pillar, and the direct agent of the will of the central government.
(*For details about the encounter between Wan Hua Sheng Jun and Lin Yu, please see Chapter 1072).
Anyway...
This guy is tricky.
Regardless of his standing among the "sages," Lin Yu believed that this guy was in big trouble.
He knew Lin Zhao...
Therefore, he should have recognized himself at this moment.
"Freud" had already walked towards Lao Zheng. Next to the mirror figure who seemed to be the Myriad Transformations Saint King, the dark-skinned female sage raised her hand, and layers of black, twisted thorns rose up around them, encircling the area within a hundred meters, as if building an octagonal cage stage with a thorn theme for Freud and Lao Zheng.
And when that female sage did this...
The person in the mirror image was facing Lin Yu.
He spoke only when the thorns had slowed down and almost stopped growing.
"Director... is that right?"
"It's so nice to see you all again."
Lin Yu looked at the other person and thought to himself that the other person had indeed recognized him.
He glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw Old Zheng strolling leisurely through the thorny cage beside him, and Freud approaching him at a similarly slow pace—but as long as he opened his senses, he knew that the battle between the two at the spiritual and soul level, between their consciousness, had reached a fever pitch.
Old Zheng was trying to completely disrupt and confuse Freud's mind, to make this second-generation figure completely lose his existence in his perception and mental world.
Freud, on the other hand, used his soul power to pinpoint Lao Zheng's location and tried to use his "soul power" to completely pull Lao Zheng's body out of his body!
It seems that Lao Zheng did not disappoint him; he was indeed able to hold his own against his "successor" for a while.
Therefore, Lin Yu also looked at the person in the mirror and spoke.
"The Myriad Transformations Saintly Lord, is that right?"
The mirror-like man nodded: "I never expected you to still remember me. It's truly an honor."
“After all, your appearance is quite unique; it’s hard not to remember it,” Lin Yu said with a smile, looking at the Myriad Transformations Saint Monarch. “So… it seems that the will behind you has a deep collaboration with this ‘Freud’?”
“She has always been a close partner of the organization,” Wan Huashengjun said calmly. “The organization has contact with many ‘players’ and has invested in quite a few.”
Lin Yu looked at the Myriad Transformations Saint King: "But she seems to be exceptionally special—after all, she even dispatched you, who is the human side of the 'Central Organization,' the agent and embodiment of the world's will, the strongest 'hero' in the inner world, and an existence even more noble than a pillar-level saint, didn't she?"
Lin Yu recounted the exact words the Wan Hua Saint Lord had said when he first met him, introducing himself and boasting about his identity, probing him in an almost provocative manner.
After all, it seems that even though the Myriad Transformations Saint King recognized him, he did not show any hostility towards him for the time being.
Faced with Lin Yu's provocation...
The Myriad Transformations Saint King simply shook his head.
"Are you trying to provoke me, 'Director'? This kind of behavior makes no sense to me. As a 'sage,' I must follow the will of the 'mechanism' in everything."
"While I am indeed angry at your words, I will not let my anger override my judgment—especially since I am currently outside the world!"
“My current self-awareness already carries a lot of the will of the ‘mechanism’ itself, which is why the mechanism released me. Any ‘sage’ who leaves our world needs to carry enough of the mechanism’s will, enough to be greater than our own self-will.”
"So you can rest assured, I have no hostility towards you this time!"
The Myriad Transformations Saint King looked at Lin Yu and calmly said.
Lin Yu looked at the Myriad Transformations Saint Monarch...
He knew that what the Holy Lord of Myriad Transformations said was true.
Because at the very first moment of his provocation, the Myriad Transformations Saint King did indeed show a tiny, almost imperceptible hint of anger—even though the other party was a mirror image, Lin Yu could sense from his tone, subtle body language, and soul state that the other party was not without emotion.
but……
The emotion vanished quickly—and unusually so.
It was as if some external force had forcibly erased the displeasure of the Myriad Transformations Saint King caused by his provocation, forcing him to think rationally.
This is indeed exactly what Wan Hua Sheng Jun just said—Lin Yu is very certain that at that moment, his will was indeed forcibly changed by the central authority hidden in his soul, which had already surpassed his personal will.
Those mechanical changes are very difficult to perform.
It's like a drift stunt performed in a racing simulation game—no car in reality can do that.
Because that doesn't conform to the law.
Therefore, no one in this world can so strangely and abnormally restrain and forcibly calm down their emotions in such an instant.
Even if someone could do it, it wouldn't be the Myriad Transformations Saint King.
After all, Lin Yu had witnessed the acting skills of the Myriad Transformations Saint King.
And his acting skills...
It's terrible.
