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

Chapter 228 The Destiny of the Despair Train

After Lin Yu used the [Torch of Fear] to set all the monsters in the space on fire, Li Nian realized that he didn't need to take action anymore.

and……

Because this wave of monsters was eliminated much faster than expected, no other dangers will arise in the short term.

It is no longer possible to use the excuses of “wrong timing, urgent situation” to refuse to explain the situation.

So, Li Nian walked over to Lin Yu and sat down, crossing his hands behind his head.

"I thought you chose to use this torch because you recognized the origin of this train."

When Lin Yu heard Li Nian's words, he was thoughtful.

However, in order to maintain the character of "Zhu Ming" and ensure the origin of this prop, Lin Yu spoke up to explain.

"This isn't an item I got. It was given to me as a gift by a friend... Come to think of it, you just met him recently."

"I also have to thank you for giving me this favor. You gave him a chance to live, and now he owes me a favor in return."

Lin Yu spoke softly, and Li Nian immediately thought of the "May May" he met a few days ago.

Then, Li Nian was a little surprised.

"Oh, it's that guy... He's quite generous."

The little girl took off her sunglasses and looked at Lin Yu, her eyes flashing with gossip.

"So...what is your relationship?"

Li Nian asked excitedly.

Lin Yu was stunned for a moment.

He had indeed been working hard to exaggerate the intricate connections between the identities of "Zhu Ming," "Wu Yue," and "Lao Yao," but...

Lin Yu didn't expect that in Li Nian's eyes, the relationship between Zhu Ming and Wu Yue seemed a little too close!

This made even Lin Yu, who usually had a very good mood, feel a little embarrassed at this moment.

I'm having an affair with myself, right?

Even if others really misunderstood that he had an improper relationship with a girl, Lin Yu would just smile and take it easy.

When he was in high school, he was pursued by another beautiful girl from a good family because of his handsome appearance and outstanding performance in the drama at the art performance.

Both parties are very good-looking, the boy is an excellent student and the girl is a young lady. Such a configuration naturally caused a lot of discussion in high school.

Of course, there are also some rumors that the two are already together.

But Lin Yu has never clarified his thoughts - in Lin Yu's opinion, what does other people's opinions matter?

What's more, the woman doesn't care.

Until today, Lin Yu knew...

He was able to remain calm before because the content of the rumor itself was not too outrageous.

Now when encountering "misunderstandings" like "Zhu Ming and Wu Yue are having an affair", Lin Yu still feels a little uncomfortable.

But now that Lin Yu is "Zhu Ming", it is not convenient for him to explain anything.

He could only say this helplessly.

"This has nothing to do with you."

When Li Nian heard Zhu Ming's answer, he became even more convinced that there was some hidden relationship between the two.

"How can this have nothing to do with me? If you want to join the 'Freedom Alliance', you can't hide things like this from us!"

"This is part of the assessment for joining the organization... 'Order' requires background checks, and so does our 'Free Alliance'."

Li Nian spoke seriously, and Lin Yu exposed her without hesitation.

"No, you just made this up, didn't you?"

"The 'Free Alliance' definitely doesn't have such a membership rule... I can tell just by looking at your name."

Li Nian couldn't help but spit when he was exposed by Lin Yu.

"Tsk, what a pity, it almost worked."

"I think it's quite different... I can tell it's fabricated."

Chen Zhuo next to him couldn't help but speak.

"Don't say anything," Li Nian glared at his employer fiercely and threatened him, "otherwise I'll sneak into your house in the middle of the night and tear off the heads of all your wife action figures and replace them with Kenshiro's! And by the way, I'll copy your browsing history and post it in your class group chat!"

Chen Zhuo suddenly fell silent.

Lin Yu looked at Li Nian, who, unable to hear the gossip, drew his sword and vented his anger on the weaker ones, and sighed: "We don't have that much time, so let's get back to the topic."

"Ah Nian, what's going on with this train?"

Li Nian was asked the main question again. He glanced at the monster in the carriage and saw that it was almost burned to ashes, so he quickly answered the question and stopped interrupting.

"I've never been to this 'Despair Train,' but someone in the organization has had the privilege of being here... It's an express train belonging to the 'Truth Company.'"

"Truth Company?"

Chen Zhuo had a bewildered expression on his face.

"It's a company known for 'alchemy.' Their core technology is likely to transform souls and the emotions they generate into physical entities and energy."

Lin Yu answered Chen Zhuo based on his previous experience in the Winter Mountains.

The way and tone of his answer made it seem as if he knew the company very well and was just giving a casual explanation.

But Lin Yu himself knew...

This was pretty much all he knew about Truth Company.

However, just as Lin Yu expected, Li Nian supplemented his answer.

"That's right. Truth Company is one of the top forces in the ten known worlds. They believe in and are blessed by the 'God of Wisdom' and the 'God of Miracles.' You can see their presence in most copies of the 'Secret World,'" Li Nian added, then looked at Chen Zhuo and extended his hand. "Hey, Fatty, give me 200 points—the content just now was all top-secret information from the 'Free Alliance.' You're not a member, so give me the extra points."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Lin Yu again: "This is more or less an advance. I won't charge you for it. Consider it as you owe me a favor, Sister Zhu Ming."

Lin Yu said helplessly: "I didn't say I wanted to listen... and how can you be sure that I don't know this?"

"Well, just remember me anyway," Ah Nian looked at Chen Zhuo again and hooked his finger, "Hurry up, give it to me."

Chen Zhuo was also a little confused: "How can I give it to you now..."

"That's right, I'll take it myself then!"

After saying that, Li Nian turned his hand over, and a hexagonal gray metal block appeared out of thin air in his hand.

"Oh, the Hive Charge Shield—it's worth about 140 points... I guess we're even."

Chen Zhuo's expression changed slightly, and he touched his chest: "When was this taken away? You can take this too?"

Li Nian looked at Chen Zhuo's panic and laughed: "I was just kidding, I'll give it back to you."

As she said that, she threw the piece of metal back to Chen Zhuo.

It was obviously his thing, but Chen Zhuo still subconsciously said "thank you" after taking it.

This made Li Nian stunned for a moment, and his expression became a little uncomfortable.

"What are you thanking me for? This is originally yours."

"It's boring!"

After Li Nian finished speaking, he curled his lips and stood up.

At this time, the last invisible pufferfish was also burned to ashes.

"Okay, let's get ready for the 'next wave of tests'."
