Chapter 329: Successful Extortion, the Secret of the Copy

As Max closed the door of the "unsafe passage", Lin Yu and Zhi Geng were the only ones left in the bloody and dimly lit stairwell.

This was not the first time that Lin Yu was alone with Zhi Geng.

In [The Feast in Heaven], Lin Yu had been alone with Zhi Geng as 'Fluoxetine'.

Although he changed his identity this time, he still felt very familiar.

Sure enough, when the two were alone, Zhi Geng looked Lin Yu up and down, and then whispered tentatively.

"You... you shouldn't really be the 'only profession', right?"

Lin Yu also looked at Zhi Geng and laughed.

"Why do you say that?"

Zhi Geng hesitated for a moment, then said: "Because, uh, I seem to... know you."

"Your... ah, that is, are you the 'May May' of 'Order'... quite famous recently, and very active in Jiangcheng..."

Zhi Geng stumbled and said - without preparing the lines in advance, the little girl couldn't speak fluently.

Lin Yu looked at Zhi Geng and stared at her for three seconds: "Why not be frank?"

Zhi Geng was about to speak, but Lin Yu suddenly interrupted her.

"Wait a minute!"

This sudden interruption made Zhi Geng, a third-level cultivator, dare not speak. She stood on the stairs with a confused face and waited for a few seconds.

After Lin Yu nodded again and made a "please" gesture and said "OK", Zhi Geng spoke honestly.

"Oh... Anyway... I don't know what's going on with you. The following are all my guesses..."

"This copy we are in has a mechanism similar to 'reincarnation'... We look like we just joined this copy not long ago," Zhi Geng paused, pointed to his head and continued, "In fact, we should be triggered by this copy every once in a while or every time we enter a certain stage, which will erase our memories and make us mistakenly think that we have just entered the copy."

"So this is not the first time I have met you... And although the memory is unreliable and will be lost in this copy, I still have some other tricks that allow me to record some information in each cycle and pass it to the next cycle..."

"Therefore, I know your identity - you introduced yourself to me before, you are 'May May' of 'Order', and your profession is 'Doctor'."

Hearing Zhi Geng say this, Lin Yu nodded.

"I see... so you suspect I'm lying."

"But is it possible that your record is wrong?" Lin Yu looked at the word card-like prop in Zhi Geng's hand, "Maybe your information is unreliable?"

Zhi Geng was asked, a little shaken, but finally shook his head.

"I don't think so... Encountering the 'only profession' is a low-probability event, and your 'prophet' seems too much like it was specially prepared for this copy with a reincarnation mechanism."

Zhi Geng said, gradually gaining a little confidence: "I think you should have realized that this is a reincarnation copy, and there are means to retain memories or transmit information, and then want to use the fictional profession of 'prophet' to explain your foresight and influence or even control the situation in the copy!"

Zhi Geng said firmly.

After listening to her analysis, Lin Yu clapped softly.

"As expected of a third-level, well-known master of the 'night watcher'... really amazing."

Lin Yu said softly, while praising Zhi Geng, it was equivalent to acknowledging her words in disguise.

The ‘prophet’ ability he had just acquired was invalid.

However…

Lin Yu did not feel any regret at all.

On the one hand, using this ability to fish for Zhi Geng and get the opportunity for her to actively reveal the matter of reincarnation to him, Lin Yu gained the initiative, which was also good.

On the other hand…

Lin Yu had already made full use of this ability.

In front of him, a line of “hints” provided by the fake ‘prophet’ ability appeared - when Lin Yu suddenly asked Zhi Geng to stop just now, it was actually to buy time for him to activate his ability.

That sudden shout was enough to interrupt Zhi Geng’s thoughts - and as long as Zhi Geng’s “suspicion” that had not yet fully formed at that time stopped, Lin Yu’s ‘prophet’ ability would not disappear immediately.

Although the cooling time of the ‘prophet’ is two hours… but Lin Yu just happened to trigger [Rich Miser]

And at that moment, Lin Yu activated the ability with the mentality of “giving it a try”, and also got the hint of the question he wanted to know most.

"Next, ask Zhigeng about the 'Psychological Society' and the 'Lord of the Mist Island', and you will get the answer to this copy, and this answer will reveal the 'secret of Zhigeng' more clearly."

It seems to be a supplement to the previous "hint".

And even if this ability is false, Lin Yu has no doubt about its effect.

These eight words from the hint are definitely enough to be used as a lever to pry out something incredible from Zhigeng-after all, according to the fortune-telling words, Zhigeng is "revisiting the old place".

So, Lin Yu looked at Zhigeng.

"In short, I am not surprised that you know that this copy has a 'reincarnation' mechanism and has a means to retain memory for it."

Lin Yu paused, and then said: "But...about this copy, this copy in the world where 'Mist Island' is located, I still have questions."

"What does it have to do with the Psychological Society and the Lord of Kirishima?"

Lin Yu asked in a very calm tone.

And as soon as he finished asking, he knew that the clues provided by his ability were indeed very useful.

Because the moment Lin Yu's words came out, Zhi Geng's expression instantly became a little flustered.

"How do you know this copy is under the sphere of influence of the 'Psychological Society'?!"

"Who did you hear the name 'Lord of Kirishima' from?"

Zhi Geng asked in such a panic that Lin Yu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Sure enough, there is a problem!

He has absolutely no idea that this copy belongs to the sphere of influence of the 'Psychological Society'...

It would be better to say that Lin Yu had never even thought before that a real 'player organization' could actually have what could be called a 'sphere of influence' in a copy of the 'Game of Death'.

This is the first time I heard about this.

It seems that my understanding of these large player organizations is still not enough!

Thinking of this, Lin Yu decided not to be ashamed to ask.

"Actually, I don't know much. Since you know...please help me learn more about it."

"First of all, can you explain to me what the sphere of influence of the 'Psychological Society' is?"

Zhigeng was speechless after listening to Lin Yu's words.

She also reacted and realized that she had been tricked!
