Upon hearing the crow's voice, Lin Yu calmly spoke.
"I just advanced to Second Tier, and I'm currently selecting my Specialized Items in the Second Tier's Promotion Space."
As Lin Yu spoke, the crude drawing of a gray crow on his wrist mark tilted its head and opened its beak.
"Coo, you an you want to help you choose? You want to hear the opinion of this great god?"
Lin Yu shook his head, his tone devoid of any questioning, speaking in the purest declarative sentence: "No need... When I was selecting the dungeon before, I heard you let out a scream."
"I don't quite believe you can be of much help."
Lin Yu said calmly, and the God of Change laughed: "Caw caw, alright, I understand you—reverse psychology!"
"Wanting to get to tell you what you want to know without using up a question opportunity... Very well, then I'll oblige you."
"When you were selecting the dungeon, there was indeed an accident... Originally, your dungeon options didn't include the Misty Islands. I and a few other gods pulled so strings and bridged their world's dungeons to the Misty Islands—my original intention was to guarantee your passage."
Lin Yu nodded. He had guessed that the God of Change must have pulled so trick, he just didn't know the specific reason.
"But, you failed."
Lin Yu said, and the crude drawing of the crow let out a sneaky laugh: "No way around it, the ga's anti-cheat system ca too fast... But it's also a good thing, at least it eliminated the most dangerous option for you—the Wasteland Realm is also relatively safe for you."
"In fact, for you players' Promotion, I most recomnd the Wasteland Realm... The two pantheons of gods here are both quite mild, and since no single god is exceptionally strong, a delicate balance has been achieved—you can tell other players about this after you leave."
"Thanks, but I don't have the habit of writing guides or sharing these things."
Lin Yu said politely.
"What a sha, then just rember it yourself," the God of Change said again, "So, you just wanted to ask about this?"
"Not only that," Lin Yu had gradually confird that his communication with the God of Change didn't seem to have a ti limit; as long as he didn't ask questions, it would continue, "In the last dungeon, I also encountered soone who pulled out your statue."
"Hey, do you think that was my arrangent?" the gray crow crude drawing stretched its wings, "Admittedly, that person is half my believer... but her coming here was truly a coincidence."
"Of course, it's only natural for you to feel sothing was off, because... coincidence aside, there was indeed sothing ddling in it," the God of Change said calmly, "You ca into contact with 'Fate Fragnts' on the Misty Islands. That thing will more or less alter your fortune... It seems now it has shifted in a favorable direction."
Lin Yu nodded.
So encountering Fern wasn't a complete coincidence, it's just that the crow didn't pull the strings.
"Good luck, that's not bad..."
Lin Yu pondered.
The gray crude drawing of the crow hopped on his wrist: "So then, what question do you actually intend to ask?"
Hearing the crow's inquiry, Lin Yu calmly spoke: "I just wanted to ask you... do you rember that I once used 'lies' to obtain belief from you to acquire two items, and used that to take all the items when I later chose the items obtained from advancing?"
The crow said lightly: "Of course, are you trying to say you have that ability now too?"
"Of course... I have to thank the item I got from your Misty Islands, and the Tongue of Deceit you initially gave ."
Lin Yu said with certainty.
Then, he pulled out the Repaired Fog Pocket Watch within the Settlent Space.
The hands fluctuated, and the Repaired Fog Pocket Watch, which had just been satiated not long ago, activated its ability once again—and this ti, its consumption was much greater than before.
Because the object Lin Yu chose to rewind was an item from a god—the Tongue of Deceit!
Although the Tongue of Deceit's uses had been exhausted... this item had not yet disappeared—while consumables should vanish after use, the change in item quantity isn't finalized until Lin Yu returns to reality!
Using this point, Lin Yu could now use the "Tongue of Deceit" one last ti.
And this ti, he chose the sa lie as last ti.
"To this day, I still possess the abilities of the Ga Master obtained from the first ga, and these abilities are still in effect here, able to help obtain two Class Items!"
Lin Yu said, feeling the belief materialize out of thin air, then the original choice of one out of four changed to choosing two out of four.
"Caw caw, you really did it—remarkable!"
The God of Change exclaid with admiration.
Then, the god raised a question: "But what purpose did your communication with serve? Did you just want to observe up close how impressive your maneuvers are?"
Lin Yu shook his head.
"Of course not, I needed your belief!"
Lin Yu said, and before the God of Change could react, using the belief from the god that had just flowed into his control, he activated Manifestation!
The belief of a single god carried more weight than all the belief gathered from the "rumor" that spread across most of the Black Marsh world—after all, this was belief that had once been sufficient to support Lin Yu in twisting ti and deceiving the ga's rules!
And the Manifestation Lin Yu activated was naturally aid at the small trap in his earlier statent.
"... and used that to take all the items when I later chose the items obtained from advancing"—this part of the statent with "ambiguous" aning was now being utilized by Lin Yu with his Fraudster ability!
This was his true objective that he had been setting up and concealing from the very beginning...
Admittedly, he did have many questions about the crow, about coincidences, about the gods, but those questions weren't urgent for Lin Yu to find answers to now.
At this mont in the Settlent Space, Lin Yu used up the opportunity to converse with the "God of Change" with only one goal from start to finish...
"Deceive the god—then turn choosing two out of four into choosing all four."
Having already tasted the sweetness of obtaining both the Counterfeit and the False Face Class Items simultaneously, Lin Yu naturally couldn't let go of any Specialized Item.
Since the Death Ga tacitly allowed his bug-exploiting behavior last ti, it ant that using his Class abilities to deceive the ga's rules was part of the ga's exploitable chanisms!
Before the belief from the god dissipated, Lin Yu instantly focused his spirit on all four Specialized Items simultaneously!
Having briefly experienced the abilities of the original Freud in the dungeon, Lin Yu had gained a new understanding of spiritual energy control, making this naturally effortless!
Then, the light faded, and four consecutive prompts sounded.
[Congratulations, you have obtained the Specialized Item: Narrative Trick!]
[Congratulations, you have obtained the Specialized Item: Pyramid Sche!]
[Congratulations, you have obtained the Specialized Item: Public Opinion Forges Truth!]
[Congratulations, you have obtained the Specialized Item: Honeyed Words and Fair Appearances!]
