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

Chapter 1562 The 'Player' Who Understands Power Best

Fang Qing once told Lin Yu that she was probably the one among all the "players" who understood "authority" the most.

Fang Qing was not joking when he said this, nor was he exaggerating.

Furthermore, as the leader of the "Freedom Alliance," Fang Qing, after gaining a certain level of strength, also did something similar with the "Grandmaster"—that is, he took the initiative to challenge other players' experts.

However, the "Grandmaster" was targeting the "Diviner" and beating him up, his purpose being to confirm his own strength and restrict the "Diviner's" activities.

Fang Qing's purpose was different. Her main reason for doing this was to "collect information" and help other members of the "Freedom Alliance" increase their survival rate when they encountered experts from other organizations.

Therefore, Fang Qing would try to spar with or closely observe the performance of every renowned master in order to collect information about them.

Later, Fang Qing even expanded the scope of this information collection to include promising newcomers—and Fang Qing quickly found a "shortcut".

Although the "Freedom Alliance" has a small number of members and a small scale, it does not have a wide intelligence network.

However, regarding which "players" have potential, especially whether newly joined "players" have potential...

The Psychological Society is definitely the most authoritative!

Therefore, Fang Qing naturally set his sights directly on the "evaluation report" of the Psychological Society!

By simply periodically stealing the Psychological Society's evaluation reports and keeping an eye on the newcomers that the Psychological Society is particularly interested in, it is possible to ensure that no genius newcomer or monster will quietly emerge in the 'player' group and suddenly cause a major disaster for a member of the organization.

In short, Fang Qing was well aware that he was essentially a person with a strong desire for control.

As the leader of the organization, she wouldn't turn this organization named after "freedom" into her own personal fiefdom. After all, although everyone acknowledges her as the head, the "Freedom Alliance" is actually structurally without a head or leader.

This is also the principle of the "Freedom Alliance".

Fang Qing never directly interferes with any member's actions.

but……

This does not mean she lacks a "control urge".

Her desire for control... is precisely reflected in her excessive worry about various extreme situations, which leads her to collect information and intelligence at any cost through various means and improve her own strength, so as to ensure that she can ensure that no one in the organization will be in danger without interfering with the actions of the members.

Fang Qing sometimes thinks... he's definitely not the right person to have children.

After all, she has this level of controlling nature even towards her friends and partners...

If you actually have a child, then for that child, this "family of origin" would probably be suffocatingly so.

Of course, fortunately, with the existence of the "Death Game," Fang Qing felt that he probably wouldn't need to worry about having offspring.

Anyway...

This "desire for control" ingrained in her personality, seemingly the very essence of her soul, does sometimes bother Fang Qing.

But most of the time, she accepted that this side of herself existed.

and……

This aspect also brought her benefits.

She would force herself to learn about the information of all kinds of expert "players" and would also try her best to collect information about the "Ten Realms" in each "Dungeon".

And in this process...

Fang Qing naturally came into contact with a lot of information about the hidden past of the Ten Realms and the high-level powers.

In the Ten Realms, all high-ranking beings will eventually be involved with "power"!

Therefore, Fang Qing was also well aware that among the "players," there were those like the "Diviner" who had been pursuing the power of "destiny" and had already planned their path to godhood, as well as those like the "Nioh" who were only one step away from becoming a god...

There are even gods like the 'General'!

Even including the "General," who has become the "God of Power" and truly embodies and wields authority, Fang Qing still feels that... she can be considered the "player" who understands "authority" the most.

Because her understanding of "authority" truly surpasses that of some deities.

after all……

To become a god, one does not necessarily need to understand the nature of "authority," but only needs to understand the one that they contain.

but……

While Fang Qing was struggling with the power of the "game," she was also constantly exploring the power and effects of other powers and gods, and she was always thinking about and investigating the essence of "gods" and "power."

This is also why Fang Qing was able to create pure authority "props" like the "Resurrection Coin" and the "Error"—this is not solely due to the "Ninth Art" and the "Open Source Creative Workshop."

This stems from Fang Qing's thorough understanding of power—her understanding of power has formed many "universal solutions" applicable to all kinds of power.

Of course, besides the "general solution"...

Fang Qing had long been studying most of the mainstream gods of the Ten Realms and the powers they wielded.

The "Mist of Oblivion" that was eroding Fang Qing's body and soul was gradually "expelled" from the gaps in Fang Qing's armor, as if it had been squeezed out of Fang Qing's body by something.

Through her helmet visor, she looked at the astonished God of Oblivion, at the god's surprised expression and the energy flowing beneath it, and spoke again.

“Is it surprising that the power of the ‘God of Oblivion’… ‘authority’ has failed against a mere mortal?”

“Every day, every moment, I think about how to isolate myself from the influence of authority. Your way of using authority to exert influence on me is too childish.”

Within Fang Qing's soul and body, every cell, every part of her soul, was rejecting external authority.

The [Error] that Fang Qing gave to Lin Yu was certainly valuable, after all, Fang Qing only had so many materialized [Errors].

but……

The unformed "errors" permeated Fang Qing's soul and body, becoming an important element in the formation of "Fang Qing"—their proportion might even exceed that of oxygen!

(*Although we are called carbon-based life forms, oxygen accounts for about 65% of the normal human body, making it the most abundant element in the body.)

These "errors" might cause Fang Qing to be "forgotten" of the brief impact and momentary daze she had just experienced.

but……

She will not be “corrupted” by the power of oblivion.

Having regained control of the power that had been "forgotten," the God of Forgotten also understood Fang Qing's methods based on the feedback brought back by the "forgotten" beings who had been expelled from Fang Qing's body.

"I really underestimated you, demigod... As expected, none of the demigods among you 'players' are simple characters."

"There's a power within you specifically designed to repel authority... Is this a method you created?"

Fang Qing didn't hide anything: "I guess so."

“Truly amazing… Your world is truly astonishing—the creatures that your world breeds are far more terrifying than those of any other world.”

The God of Oblivion spoke, then paused.

"However, while you can avoid the direct effects of 'authority' on you, which are similar to 'erosion,' you probably can't do the same with the indirect effects, right?"

"Besides, you're unlikely to pose a threat to me—the power within you that's inherently averse to authority is probably hard to use for an attack, right?"

The God of Oblivion earnestly said to Fang Qing, "Since that's the case... we might as well compromise. How about this: I'll let you go, and you shouldn't interfere with me in completing my 'commission'?"

Fang Qing looked at the life that was earnestly discussing the terms with him, but his face did not show much respect.

On the contrary, Fang Qing rejected the God of Oblivion's proposal almost without hesitation.

"Are you an idiot? I came here to save him... How could I possibly make a deal with you that goes against my primary objective?"

The God of Oblivion was not angered by Fang Qing's direct insults; instead, he offered further explanation.

“Of course I’ve taken that into account, and I don’t mean to belittle you… What I mean is, I’m not necessarily killing him to complete my mission.”

"Keeping him as God's chosen one while allowing him to retain his self-awareness is a good option for you, isn't it?"

"As long as he retains his self-awareness, it's a situation you can accept."

The God of Oblivion tried to persuade him, but Fang Qing only gave a cold snort.

"I'm sorry, I can't accept that."

As she spoke, the God of Oblivion said, "So you're planning to fight me to the bitter end... That's not a wise choice, demigod. Even though you blocked one of my attacks just now—haven't you realized that your attack came after my true form descended here..."

"I don't even need to block it!"

The God of Oblivion spoke with extreme confidence.

And as a deity...

Of course, He also has the strength and confidence!

only……

Fang Qing shook his head.

"You haven't realized one thing... my methods are more than enough to break through your defenses."

As Fang Qing finished speaking, a new weapon materialized in her armored hand.

Two strangely shaped swords with relatively short blades appeared in Fang Qing's hands. The chains dangling on the hilts and the simple blood-red stripes on the blades made Lin Yu recognize the origin of these two swords at a glance.

"Blade of Chaos!"

Lin Yu couldn't help but whisper the name of the twin swords.

Fang Qing raised his knife and gave Lin Yu a thumbs up.

"Good eye, you actually recognized it... that shows you have good taste in games."

And opposite Lin Yu and Fang Qing...

Although the God of Oblivion did not recognize the origin of the dual-blade design, He sensed something was amiss.

Because He sensed an extremely dangerous aura emanating from those twin blades.

After carefully sensing and thoroughly understanding the source of the powerful aura of these twin blades, the God of Oblivion couldn't help but speak.

"Why do you... possess the authority of 'power'?!"
