Yayu: Ah, who took the items? How could they be so awful?

The van carrying five members of the "Freedom Alliance" was still driving on the road, while the other three members of the "Freedom Alliance" had indeed arrived near the International Convention Center.

"Fishing Man," "God of Cookery," and "Comedian" sat in the God of Cookery's other daily black sedan, which was parked in a temporary parking space on the side of the road.

Because there are no Street Trees in this parking area, it gets even full of cars during Typhoon days.

The God of Cookery sat in the driver's seat adjusting the radio, the Comedian observed the flow of people at the main entrance of the International Convention Center from the passenger seat, and Chen Le sat in the back looking at his phone.

The three of them were responsible for scouting the location first.

As for why the three of them were in one group and the others were in another, it was naturally because the group had adopted the traditional "Freedom Alliance" grouping method in the morning.

Old Wu and one of the Comedian, and then the rest of the people played rock-paper-scissors.

Now, sitting in the car, the three of them are all wearing cartoon character masks, looking like robbers about to rob a bank.

"Zzzzz--"

Because the signal was very poor, the God of Cookery kept trying to adjust it, but all he could hear from the radio was static caused by distorted current.

As more and more members of "Order" entered and exited the Convention Center in the rain, Chen Le, sitting in the back row, spoke up.

"Hey, Brother Zhuo, do you really think these [Childlike Mask] can conceal our identities? They just seem to draw more attention to us!"

"I saw a message from 'Zhu Ming' reminding us... saying that 'Order' just lost 'Benevolent King's' [Item]... and it's already being charged to 'A Nian' and us."

"If this gets discovered, we're probably in big trouble."

The Comedian said confidently, "Don't worry, bro, this mask of mine is absolutely fine... Although you might feel like it makes you stand out more, it actually just makes people see you as a Weirdo —a Weirdo who doesn't need close observation and just wants to look away as quickly as possible."

After hearing the Comedian's words, Chen Le touched the mask on his face, then sighed, "Okay, I admit it, I just think this thing is a bit ugly, and it's embarrassing to wear."

After all, what he was wearing at the moment was a cartoon mouse mask that should theoretically resemble Mickey Mouse —but because it was so crudely made and abstract, the resemblance was extremely low, almost to the point of being cultish.

Even if Disney's legal team were to sue this mask for copyright infringement, they would probably have no chance of winning.

The God of Cookery finally gave up on adjusting the radio, and said helplessly, "Be content, this is already the better one out of the three masks."

After all, what was currently plastered on the God of Cookery's face was a pink pig's head mask that looked like a hairdryer.

What the Comedian left for himself was his only domestically produced cartoon character: a brown, grinning Old Bear.

Both masks were so poorly made that they bordered on cultish.

The Comedian reiterated, "As long as the functionality works, don't worry too much about the appearance!"

"Anyway... since 'Benevolent King's' [Item's is already gone anyway, we're not in a hurry to go in once the battle breaks out..."

"Anyway, we can get everyone here first."

As the Comedian spoke, the God of Cookery nodded in agreement. "Even if everyone is present without [Item]... we haven't seen 'Zhu Ming' or the 'Director,' so it doesn't seem like we need to do anything."

Chen Le spoke up, "To be honest, I still don't think Zhu Ming will end up needing our help... Although the intensity of the battle in Shenzhen might be very high, I think Zhu Ming will actually thrive in the chaos."

"We might as well just wait for the 'Diviner' and his helper to appear—when the time is right, we should try to give that so-called 'Tier 5' version a big surprise."

The Comedian nodded in agreement. "That's right... We can't just let him put a bounty on the 'Director' without him paying any price... Besides, ultimately, the blame for Fang Qing being trapped in the Divine Realm still falls on the 'Diviner' and that mysterious organization!"

The God of Cookery smiled and said, "I also agree that we should strike when the time is right... However, let's first plan out an escape route."

"Honestly, rather than severely damaging something like the 'Diviner'... I think it's more realistic to find the right opportunity to safely evacuate 'Zhu Ming'."

Chen Le nodded. "That makes sense... but let's see how things go first!"

"Anyway, those 'Marauders' guys probably won't be particularly patient."

"Got it."

At this very moment, after the "Paper Kite" was "carried away" from the Rooftop of the International Convention Center...

The Rooftop, naturally, became... empty.

After all, "Order" is severely understaffed at the moment, and the chaos and commotion inside have not yet subsided—the loss of "Benevolent King's" [Item] is a major incident!

Although "Order" is now almost certain that "Freedom Alliance" was responsible and is hunting down members of "Freedom Alliance"...

But "Good Night" couldn't just leave everyone else in the room empty.

After all...

What if there's an informant within the "Freedom Alliance" among this group, or what if members of the "Freedom Alliance" are just using the Underground passage as a smokescreen and haven't left yet?

Therefore, while dispatching a medical team to treat "Paper Kite", Good Night also maintained the entire venue under temporary lockdown.

Everyone was gathered on the first floor and kept under the surveillance of the "Order" Internal Team.

And this led to...

After the door to the Rooftop was sealed with a protective barrier, it was temporarily left empty.

At the same time, although Good Night guessed the thief's true identity incorrectly, his guess about the thief's whereabouts was not actually wrong.

As the true culprit who stole the [Item] set left behind by "Benevolent King", "Yayu", or rather Lin Yu, did not actually take that underground passage!

At this moment, Lin Yu, still in the "Yayu" posture, sat on the Rooftop and began to admire his spoils.

[Indestructible Shield], [Unmovable as a Mountain], [Primordial Fire], [Universal Adaptive Defense Combat Suit], [Karma Substitute Death Calamity Body]...

They're all already in my hands!

These five Item were indeed quite substantial. After Lin Yu actually received them, he fully understood why various organizations Item them!

"Marauders," "Freedom Alliance"... even "Psychology Society"!

Because among these five [Item], there is indeed the potential to turn an ordinary "Player" into a master once obtained.

At the same time, for those who are already experts, even those ranked second like the "Diviner"... there is one item among them that can further strengthen and enhance their entire [Item] set and ability system!

Although the "Diviner" used these five [Item] as a pretext for his real purpose, his desire for these five [Item] was also genuine.

And now...

"In short, it's mine for now."

Lin Yu murmured.

This represents a near-leap forward in enhancing one's defensive capabilities!

After all... when it comes to "defense," Lin Yu doesn't actually have many specialized methods.

He basically either dodges using various movement techniques or he recovers by enduring the damage.

These [Item] are now being given to Lin Yu, and they are indeed a crucial boost for Lin Yu!

So...

Lin Yu naturally did not intend to attribute the credit for stealing these [Item] to his identity as "Yayu".

Since "Order" has misunderstood that all of this was the work of the "Freedom Alliance"...

Lin Yu didn't mind bringing this misunderstanding to the "Marauders".

Sure enough, when Lin Yu opened his phone, he saw that "A'yu" had sent a message.

[A'yu: Yayu, are you alright? The outpost ahead sent back intelligence saying there's unusual activity coming from the Convention Center!]

Lin Yu saw A'yu's message and immediately replied.

[Yayu: Don't worry, Sister Yu, this is the commotion I caused.]

[Yayu: This is what I promised.]

[A'yu:?]

[A'yu: You're that amazing? They said the main entrance was on fire, and then "Dionysus" led the team out. How did you manage that?]

[A'yu: You killed Good Night?]

[Yayu: No, it wouldn't be appropriate to say it was my own achievement...]

[Yayu: Anyway, you should receive the intelligence soon; Dionysus is chasing after members of the "Freedom Alliance."]

[Yayu: The "Freedom Alliance" stole what "Benevolent King" left behind—I took the opportunity to cause a few explosions, which was like adding fuel to the fire.]

[Yayu: So, the original plan was just to create an explosion, but the effect is surprisingly good.]

[A'yu: Wow... the "Freedom Alliance" has already made their move? That's amazing! They really can't hold back!]

[A'yu: But I didn't expect them to actually succeed... Damn, we need the "Benevolent King" Item too, damn, isn't this all good?]

[Yayu: Sister Yu, it's me, I should stop them.]

[A'yu: That's bullshit! You tried to stop those lunatics... those lunatics are all better at running away than the last.]

[A'yu: And how could you possibly help "Order" stop the "Freedom Alliance" on "Order's" turf? "Order" will definitely take you down too!]

[A'yu: I'm so glad you managed to stay safe!]

[Yayu: Well, I did gain something else, Sister Yu.]

[Yayu: Besides the fact that the "Order's" defenses have become more chaotic due to the involvement of the "Freedom Alliance," I myself have occupied an entrance—because of the chaos, they haven't noticed my presence.]

[Yayu: So, I'm currently at the entrance to the Rooftop of the International Convention Center... It's currently unmanned.]

[Yayu: You can come this way then.]
