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

Chapter 1572 A Pinky Oath

"The mastermind?"

Lin Yu was somewhat shocked upon hearing Shen Bingmiao's words.

But he quickly realized what was happening.

Considering that she was his own older sister... it's somewhat understandable.

Then, Lin Yu continued to ask questions.

"Because you all participated in the 'doomsday creation' plan...that's why my sister is called the 'Doomsday Messenger' in Night Valley, right?"

Shen Bingmiao nodded: "Yes - actually, Night Valley was the first place where we started our activities, because Sister Zhao was the most familiar with that place."

"Moreover... the Lord of the Abyss was also the first god killed by Sister Zhao, so to some extent, half of the Night Valley Realm had already fallen into her control at that time."

"Of course, Sister Zhao didn't do this to control the Night Valley Realm... She mainly wanted the power controlled by the 'Lord of the Abyss'."

Lin Yu asked curiously, "What authority?"

"The two authorities of contract and chaos... The official divine name of the Lord of the Abyss is 'God of Contract and Chaos'."

"His two powers are incompatible, and the 'Lord of the Abyss' is considered to have relatively low intelligence among gods—before becoming a god, the Lord of the Abyss was less of an intelligent life form and more of a collection of all magical creatures in a certain magical plane of the 'Night Valley Realm' that generated consciousness...although after becoming a god, he gradually developed a 'self,' and because he is a life form with a naturally higher status, close to the 'will of the plane,' he is actually more powerful than ordinary gods..."

“But, in Sister Zhao’s opinion, He is indeed easier to deal with—after all, she doesn’t need to really erase the existence of the ‘Lord of the Abyss,’ she only needs to erase the consciousness that the other party has only been born for a short time.”

"Although the current 'Lord of the Abyss' is still alive, it has lost its own will and is no different from a machine. It only reacts to external stimuli according to the most basic laws of authority."

"You can use this when you go to Night Valley Realm in the future."

Shen Bingmiao gave her instructions.

“I understand, I will remember it,” Lin Yu nodded. “So, are there any other realms in the Ten Realms that have similar hidden high-level knowledge that they can provide me?”

Shen Bingmiao raised an eyebrow: "Aren't you afraid the 'Death Game' will make things more difficult for you?"

“I already know enough ‘hidden knowledge’. If I were to increase the difficulty because of that, I’d probably be entering a period of diminishing returns,” Lin Yu said calmly. “Besides… even if this level of knowledge increases the difficulty, it would still be more beneficial to me.”

At this point, Lin Yu lowered his eyes: "Besides, if I don't ask you about these things now, I'll never have the chance to find out later."

Shen Bingmiao fell silent: "You're right... I'm so sorry, junior."

Lin Yu shook his head: "No need to apologize, you don't owe me anything."

Shen Bingmiao pursed her lips and said, "The former 'Sea God' of the Pure Ruins Realm was also an ancient god who held the power of 'storms' and 'oceans'. However, when he condensed the power of 'oceans', he lacked sufficient resources and thus invaded another realm among the Ten Realms, the Wasteland Realm, and took away the ocean of the Wasteland Realm."

"The 'Boundary Gate' of the Wasteland was left behind by Him, and He killed one of the native demigods in the Wasteland who was most likely to become a god at that time."

"The 'Dao Ancestor' of the Prison Mountain Realm wields 'Nature' and another authority. Although there are only two authorities, the Dao Ancestor is not actually a single person, but a group of Daoist masters who chose to abandon their self-awareness and directly merge with the world will of the Prison Mountain Realm. Therefore, they are terrifyingly powerful, almost comparable to the 'Central Organs' of the 'Gray Domain'... This is why the chosen one of the 'God of Destiny' was banished to the Prison Mountain Realm by us, because only in this realm can she not cause any trouble."

"However, the reason why demons still run rampant in the Prison Mountain Realm despite the existence of the 'Dao Ancestor' is that demons are also part of this world... Although the world's will has been integrated with the 'Dao Ancestor,' the Heavenly Dao of the Prison Mountain Realm follows the principle of 'yin-yang balance.' Therefore, the part of the world's will that has not been integrated with the Dao Ancestor will breed rules that suppress the survival of humans in the Prison Mountain, making the environment more extreme and the demons and monsters more difficult to deal with."

"As for the Kirishima Realm... you are too familiar with it. You have already dealt with the two gods and even yourself, so I have nothing to say. Just be careful, because the authority of 'memory' and 'soul' is still outside, there are some beings in the Kirishima Realm that even the gods cannot control."

Shen Bingmiao recounted each and every one of these things, and Lin Yu silently wrote them all down.

Then he nodded.

“I understand, senior… I’ve remembered all of this—and, just to be on the safe side, I’ll record them all using my ‘information’ authority.”

"This knowledge will definitely be of great help. Thank you for telling me this."

Shen Bingmiao laughed as she watched Lin Yu take out the [Ancient Notebook].

"Don't mention it... Besides, you've already used up most of your time, haven't you?"

Shen Bingmiao looked at Lin Yu, whose feigned expression froze, and then he let out a long sigh.

How did you figure that out?

“Judging from your acting skills, junior, your performance is of course flawless, after all, you are my dearest ‘ace’,” Shen Bingmiao sighed, “but… while you understand me, I also understand you, Lin Yu.”

"The reason I've kept this a secret is because I know that if you knew my situation, you would do everything in your power and pay any price to keep me here."

As Shen Bingmiao spoke, she snapped her fingers.

Deep within the television screen, invisible threads of cause and effect, imbued with the power of "destiny," were thrown out from the television.

This was the method Lin Yu had been preparing – no matter what irreversible situation Shen Bingmiao was facing, Lin Yu could guess that if she hadn't intended to burn herself out this time, even if she didn't have much time, it certainly wouldn't have been only eight hours.

There are at least a few weeks or even months left.

So... Lin Yu plans to use these "causal threads" to drag her into his domain first.

If we can postpone it for one more day, we will.

only……

Shen Bingmiao saw through all of this.

"Alright, junior, I know what you're thinking... but since I've made my decision, let me do what I should do—let my last moments have some value, okay?"

“When I woke up in the Cyber ​​Ghost’s electronic coffin and found that Sister Zhao was dead while I was still alive, the pain of that helplessness tormented me for a long time,” she said softly, her eyes gentler than ever before. “So, I’m begging you, junior… don’t make me go through it again.”

"May I end my life with a noble sense of sacrifice and mission?"

Lin Yu remained silent.

Even after Shen Bingmiao threw out the "cause and effect thread," he still didn't give up and was still trying to find a solution.

He has many other options to try.

However, when Shen Bingmiao's words reached his ears, Lin Yu's "legitimacy" and reasons for thinking about it were instantly dissolved.

Admittedly... Lin Yu had many reasons to keep Shen Bingmiao, especially from the perspective of "interests." Every extra second that this "god of games and rules," who always unconditionally stood by his side, lived was extremely beneficial to him.

but……

After Shen Bingmiao uttered those words in an almost pleading manner, Lin Yu truly could no longer force her to live.

He was unwilling to torment Shen Bingmiao, nor was he willing to go against her final wish.

So, Lin Yu could only sigh deeply in the end.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of the 'forum'—and the 'God of Games and Rules' will still exist, though I'll probably become like the 'Dao Ancestor' or the 'Lord of the Abyss' now, having lost myself," Shen Bingmiao said casually. "In a sense, I'm still alive... so if you ask the authority of 'Games' and 'Rules' for help, you'll still get a response."

“I will imprint ‘unconditionally helping Lin Yu’ into the most basic ‘law’ of these two authorities—well, one of the authorities happens to be the ‘rule’ itself, so I’m quite confident I can do it.”

Lin Yu, after listening to Shen Bingmiao's words, finally couldn't help but speak up.

"It's not about those things at all... Senior, what I can't accept isn't these things at all!"

Shen Bingmiao looked at Lin Yu and gently pursed her lips.

“I know you can’t accept those things… but there are bound to be many cruel things in this world.”

Lin Yu remained silent.

The two faced off across the screen for a long time before Shen Bingmiao finally spoke in a low voice.

"Alright, junior... how about this—since you're going to revive Sister Zhao anyway, why not revive me too, how about that?"

"My soul is within the 'game's' authority; perhaps it will be easier for me to be resurrected than for Sister Zhao!"

"Even if you find a way to revive Sister Zhao, she will easily figure out a way to revive me after she is revived!"

"And in a sense, I can't even be called 'resurrected,' since I'm not dead—you just need to find a way to 'restore my self-awareness,' which sounds much simpler."

Shen Bingmiao spoke cheerfully, as if she wasn't discussing her impending disappearance.

Lin Yu looked at Shen Bingmiao and nodded: "Okay, I will do it... I promise."

He extended his little finger and placed it in front of the screen.

Shen Bingmiao on the screen was stunned for a moment, then she also stretched out her little finger—her fingertip solidified through the screen, gently hooked Lin Yu's finger and shook it.

"I promise you too."

Shen Bingmiao said.
