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

Chapter 1499 Escape Plan

Lin Yu remembered that he wasn't the only one in the God Realm who was going to come into contact with authority tonight.

And... "Nioh"!

After settling all his "last wishes," this "fourth-tier" "player" prepared to attempt to reach the rank of a god and ascend to the "fifth tier."

Based on the Frost God's words, Lin Yu could easily confirm one thing...

"The authority that 'Nioh' seeks to contain, and the authority through which it attains godhood, seems to have some connection with the 'god of fairness and judgment'?"

This did not surprise Lin Yu.

After all, although they had only met briefly a few times, Lin Yu's impression of "Nioh" was indeed that he was an upright guy.

Even though the other person has an eccentric personality, is unconventional, and even does things that are somewhat unreliable, Lin Yu can sense that this guy has a sincere heart.

More importantly, Fang Qing mentioned that Nioh has almost no offensive items or abilities, and he almost never intentionally harms or maims other living beings or players.

So it's not surprising that such a being would need the "authority" to become a god, which is also what the "god of fairness and judgment" needs.

"So, what exactly is this authority—that causes the entire 'eternal cage' to tremble?"

Lin Yu asked again.

“I don’t know either, after all, this authority is not yet fully formed, but it is about to be formed,” said the God of Frost. “As for the changes in the ‘Eternal Cage’… in fact, the entire divine kingdom of the ‘God of Fairness and Judgment’ is shaking.”

"Because a part of that newly born authority will inevitably be drawn to His kingdom—and He may try to accommodate this newborn authority."

"At the same time, this also means that... He is competing with the demigods chosen by the 'newborn authority' itself to become gods."

"In this struggle, this place is now considered a relatively stable part of His divine kingdom, since it belongs to the realm of 'drama' and is no longer entirely within the 'divine kingdom'."

Lin Yu understood the words of the Frost God.

"You mean... the outside is worse than the inside?"

The God of Frost nodded.

"Indeed... But don't worry about the situation 'outside,' worry about yourself first."

“Now that the ‘God of Fairness and Judgment’ has been influenced by the new authority and the divine kingdom is in turmoil… therefore, His suppression of me is naturally not as strong.”

He spoke softly, slightly raising his hand. Cold frost emanated from his fingertips, freezing the surrounding air little by little and quickly forming a light layer of frost around his body.

The frost quickly swallowed up the original appearance of the "frost," shaping it into a more vague and generalized "human form"—like some kind of abstract human-shaped ice sculpture.

Although the body's curves are more graceful and beautiful, it has lost its "distinctiveness" and exists only like a symbol.

The instant this change occurred, Lin Yu also felt a bone-chilling cold.

Along with the cold came a feeling of sluggishness.

His limbs, thoughts, and soul all became "sluggish" and "slow," as if they had been "frozen."

"Is this the power of 'authority'?!"

Although Lin Yu had come into contact with gods or high-ranking beings of similar status quite a few times, he rarely encountered those gods in a hostile relationship with them.

At least... in Lin Yu's memory, the only time he was truly affected by "authority" level power was when he confronted "Zhu Qiansi," the chosen one who was the former "God of Destiny" and was then the "Thousand-Eyed Thousand-Silk Demon Lord."

At that time, Zhu Qiansi's authority was not even complete, and Zhu Qiansi herself was merely "chosen by God".

But at this moment, when Lin Yu truly faced the power of the "authority" wielded by the gods...

Even though a god who has been suppressed and sealed away is using an avatar to release a portion of his authority that can only be temporarily used due to the loosening of the seal, Lin Yu still felt troubled.

The biggest problem with this kind of high-level power is...

No solution!

No tool, ability, or supernatural power can neutralize the influence of authority.

There is no way to resist it, no way to eliminate it, and no way to counteract it.

Lin Yu finally realized how shameless he had been to use those [tools] tainted with "authority" to deal with others.

But now it's my turn to experience that feeling...

Lin Yu felt an intense headache.

Furthermore, because this is the complete power of "authority" wielded by the deity himself, Lin Yu's sealed authority, incomplete authority, and [tools] that are only slightly related to authority become completely useless in the face of this purest power of "authority"!

Especially since this "authority" is "frost"—Lin Yu has no doubt that if those [props] are taken out, they will also end up being "frozen".

It's like a nobleman's son encountering a legitimate member of the royal family; all the things he usually uses to intimidate others are now being crushed.

But fortunately...

Lin Yu had anticipated this situation from the beginning, and indeed, he still had one item in his inventory that could fail.

【Fast Teleportation】—Although Earl didn’t explicitly say that these were “authority” related items, Lin Yu had already sensed when he used 【Full Power Strike】 and 【Two-Way Radar】 that these three items from the same series that Earl provided could only be used within the divine realm of the “God of Fairness and Judgment”.

Because their operating principle is a certain "rule" pre-set by the "God of Fairness and Judgment" within his own divine kingdom.

Therefore, this is essentially a power at the level of "authority".

"It was a pleasure chatting with you, but... farewell, God of Frost!"

Lin Yu slammed the red button down hard.

The next moment, Lin Yu felt himself suddenly and without any warning arriving in a completely new place.

The surroundings were pitch black, with only a sweet scent lingering in the air. Lin Yu had no idea where he was.

After all, the landing point of [Fast Teleport] is completely random.

Lin Yu could only be certain of...

I'm probably still inside the movie theater constructed by "drama"!

Then, a voice rang in my ears: "How did you end up here? This is the movie theater's 'warehouse'!"

It's the voice of "Lucy," which means "drama."

Then, with a "click," the chandelier above his head lit up, and Lin Yu found himself in a cold storage room filled with large bags of popcorn and beverage concentrate.

Lucy popped her head out from a large bag of popcorn and said, "This isn't a good place to hide from 'Frost'—He'll be back soon... probably in the next second."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yu saw the frost in the area rapidly condense, as if it were about to transform into a human shape.

Having just escaped from the God of Frost, Lin Yu's skin had become accustomed to the low temperature and he didn't realize that this place was also "cold".

And clearly, it is easier for the "Frost God" to exert influence on cold places than on other places.

"Thanks for the reminder... However, I didn't choose this landing spot."

Lin Yu spoke to Lu Qian, and then...

He pressed the button again.

After all, [Fast Teleport] has no cooldown!

Lin Yu's figure disappeared again, this time arriving at a movie theater where a film was being shown.

A movie that looked like a romance was playing on the big screen, with the male and female leads walking in the snow.

The audience seats were filled with young couples and young men and women, who stared in surprise at Lin Yu, who had suddenly appeared on the screen.

Seeing the surprised looks on those people's faces, Lin Yu couldn't help but complain.

"I thought you wouldn't show movies or keep these 'extras' moving around in places where no one is around!"

Lucy emerged from the snow on the big screen and, amidst the even more shocked and exclamations of the audience, spoke directly to Lin Yu off-screen.

"How could that be? I am the 'drama' itself—even without an audience, the drama never ends!"

“What’s the point of keeping a play going if there’s no audience?” Lin Yu said, but then realized he had to leave. “Where exactly is this minimum level of help you’re talking about?”

On the screen, amidst the snow, beside Lucy, Cheng Shuang's figure also appeared on the screen.

Lin Yu pressed the button again without hesitation.

next moment……

Lin Yu entered the restroom.

Although this was a women's restroom, Lin Yu's sudden appearance at the sink caused the girls who were touching up their makeup and those who had just come out of the stalls to scream in surprise.

"Rogue!"

"This is the women's restroom, you've come to the wrong one!"

Lin Yu sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation as he listened to the shouts of these "extras".

But at least this time, there are no elements related to "frost"!

This means that Lin Yu has a chance to "catch his breath".

The effects of the "Frost" authority still exist, but they will not intensify for the time being.

So take advantage of this...

Lin Yu took out the [Eye of Gray Spirit]—but he didn't intend to activate it.

After all, the [Eye of the Gray Spirit] is always equipped on the body.

Lin Yu took out the [Eye of the Gray Spirit] at this moment, naturally because...

His own mind and movements were already sluggish due to the effects of "Frost," so the effect of using the [Eye of the Gray Spirit] would be greatly reduced.

However, the power of the "Frost" authority cannot affect the items within the "Item Space".

After all, Lin Yu knew very well that the "Death Game" was of a higher status than the gods!

Therefore, Lin Yu's choice at this moment is...

"Old Zheng!"

[Ancient Notes] Opening the book, Old Zheng's figure appears beside Lin Yu.

Lin Yu handed over the [Eye of the Gray Spirit] and other [items] related to mental power to Old Zheng all at once.

"The rest is up to you!"

"Help me escape—escape to a place where the 'Frost God' can't find me!"

Old Zheng, who had just condensed his physical form, caught the notebook and the [Gray Spirit Eye] that Lin Yu threw to him, and then gently pressed the eyeball onto his face with two fingers.

The next moment, Lao Zheng's left eye turned into a deep gray that seemed to be shrouded in mist.

"Received, boss."
