In the taxi, Lin Yu fiddled with his newly bought phone, looked at the somewhat tacky tiger logo of the newly installed "Jiang'an Hall" app, and sighed.

"That's definitely gangster aesthetic."

Of course, aside from criticizing the Tycoon's personal aesthetic sense, Lin Yu mostly sighed with admiration.

It's true that it's easy to get by in "Righteous Path" organizations.

According to the Tycoon himself, as a senior Partner of "Order" and "Forum", he has a special app developed for him by "Forum".

It offers much better security than regular chat apps!

It's no wonder the Tycoon was so relaxed and casual about his "assessment." After all, with the "forum" and "Order" backing him up, whether he was a person who did evil or had ulterior motives could be completely screened by whether he had a working Forum APP.

The forum is like a large network, connecting all the Player.

Those excluded from the network... will undoubtedly face much greater difficulties in their actions.

From this perspective, the seemingly "painless" punishment of removing accounts from those organizations is actually the most severe punishment.

It was only now that Lin Yu belatedly realized two things.

First, he was able to use the [Mask] and the new phone to fool the forum and actually register an account named "Old Yao," which was an enormous advantage that the [Mask] could give him.

Judging from the Tycoon's reaction, he completely relaxed after seeing that he had joined by scanning the QR code.

Clearly, even a "Tycoon" who was already the head of a medium-sized organization, a local bigwig in Jiang City, and ranked 27th among all Player, had no doubt that someone could "deceive" the forum.

Lin Yu could confirm that, including the fact that everyone liked to reveal their forum IDs in several consecutive Instance...

Ordinary Player, or rather the vast majority of Player, have almost absolute trust in the reliability of "forums".

Secondly... the Tycoon's act of giving her his WeChat ID upon their first meeting was indeed unusual.

Even "Old Yao," who had joined the "organization," was contacted by the Tycoon through a special app.

Given the forum's widespread popularity, Lin Yu belatedly realized what was happening...

The Tycoon's attitude towards "Lin Yu" was definitely not the same as his attitude towards ordinary newcomers.

Based on the various events that occurred between the "Freedom Alliance," the "Psychology Society," and himself, Lin Yu could roughly outline the sequence of events.

"It's probably some kind of organization, a 'Psychology Society,' that has some means of assessing other people's 'potential,' which can tell how much potential and aptitude a person has."

"Once they've identified a particularly promising newcomer... these lunatics will stop at nothing to bring that person into the Game —they might even send someone to kill them."

"And I'm probably the one the 'Psychology Society' has identified as having high potential... No, considering that most experts Tier Advancement in the seventh Instance, while I completed the 'Tier Advancement' in just three Instance, I must be the kind of person with exceptionally high potential for some reason."

"And the actions of the 'Psychology Society,' or rather, the results of this assessment, were not entirely confidential—after observing their assessment results, the 'Freedom Alliance' chose to send 'A Nian,' also known as Li Nian, who was also in Jiang City, to contact me and conduct a specific assessment."

"The Tycoon probably recognized my potential through the business card I gave him or something."

Lin Yu let out a sigh of relief.

He had roughly figured out the situation.

So, in the end, everything came down to...

The "Psychology Society" and the mysterious girl who initially killed him.

Moreover, the motives of both the "Freedom Alliance" and "Jiang'an Hall" are quite clear.

Only the "Psychology Society"...

Lin Yu couldn't see through it.

This organization kills any promising newcomers they see—who would want to join the organization of their own killer?

Even though it wasn't a real death... anyone would get angry being dragged into this stupid Game!

Furthermore, the people brought in have high potential; isn't this just creating enemies for myself?!

They even left themselves a business card directing customers to "Jiang'an Hall"...

The more information Lin Yu gathered about the Player community, the more he felt...

This organization has a truly sinister aura!

There was a reason why it and "The Marauders" were kicked out of the forum.

"In any case, we need to speed things up..."

Lin Yu has never hesitated to assume the worst about unknown enemies.

Who knows if those people in the "Psychology Society" have mastered some kind of evil magic that allows them to refine high-potential Player into pills, which they can then consume and use to increase their power!

"We still need to become stronger as soon as possible."

Fortunately...

As a "Fraudster," I have taken a much more unconventional approach to becoming stronger than others.

I opened the "Jiang'an Hall" app. Its interface is basically the same as Group Chat app on a messaging app. Once you enter, it looks like a chat group.

However, the interface is as simple as that of Forum APP.

The people inside were all posting using their forum IDs.

[The Tycoon: Welcome to our newest member, "Old Yao"! Old Yao is a "Thief" who will Tier Advancement the next Instance, so please take good care of him!]

[War Wolf: "Thief"? That's impressive! You should exchange ideas with "Shadowless Hand" more often! Shadowless Hand]

[Shadowless Hand: Haha, hello newbie, I'm also a "thief".]

[Shadowless Hand: The file contains my "Tier Advancement" tips, you can take a look!]

There are 83 people in the Group Chat.

As the Tycoon previously stated, "Jiang'an Hall" is an organization of nearly a hundred people.

After simply posting "Hello, everyone please take care of me. I'm going to check out Brother Shadowless Hand's tips," Lin Yu went back to lurking.

Nobody seemed to care much, and they started chatting casually—the conversation surprisingly had little to do with the "Death game," but rather revolved around recent social issues.

For example, the neighboring country that is currently holding an election, the recent turmoil in the liquor index, the celebrity who passed away recently...

It seems that even in the "Death game" Group Chat, people mostly just chat casually on ordinary days.

However, Lin Yu was quite pleased, as this at least showed that "Jiang'an Hall" was indeed a relatively relaxed and harmonious organization.

He opened the group files and began searching for the real "treasure".

These are various "guides" that can only be seen by members of the organization.

One part is related to Tier Advancement, and the other part contains more detailed Profession guides and introductions to various Item and Instance than the forum.

There are also some evaluations of other organizations.

Among them, Lin Yu clicked on the first one...

It was naturally the "Thief Tier Advancement" guide that the guy with the ID "Shadowless Hand" mentioned earlier.
