Negotiations and Wang Yuyang's Deterrence

Regarding the title "Executioner," although she was a veteran Player was active about a year ago, we have hardly heard anything about her in the past year.

But Lin Yu still knew this name.

Because the "executioner" was so famous a year ago.

This name once killed six well-known Player on the "Hunter Society" leaderboard, with bounties exceeding ten million, within a single week.

All of them were executed by hanging.

Not only that, she also listed the "crimes" of all the people she killed and posted them on the forum.

This extreme approach has sparked much controversy, with some arguing that she, like "Order," is doing good.

However, some people believe that this is simply an indiscriminate killing of innocent people with a pretext.

In any case, the Administrator and "Order" eventually intervened and stopped the controversy.

"Executioner" has the honor of becoming a Player was personally removed from the forum.

Subsequently, more and more victims of the "executioner" and news of her activities emerged.

And then...

One day, the "executioner" suddenly disappeared, and it seemed that no one ever saw her again.

Many Player speculated that she might have died silently in some Instance —a common occurrence for Player of "Death game."

Even a renowned master can suddenly die one day.

After all, the stronger you are, the more difficult the Instance you usually encounter... This is a general consensus that is not fully proven but is accepted by almost all Player.

But no one expected...

It turns out that the "executioner" did not die; she became a member of the "Psychology Society" and started a relationship with a member of the "Freedom Alliance."

Fu Luo sighed again, "I knew it, there's no such thing as an 'assassin' who isn't good at head-on combat... It turns out the 'Designer' didn't let her fight because if she did, she'd either die or be seriously injured."

Li Nian seemed to have known about Pan Yuqiang's skills all along. She curled her lip as she looked at the δ team leader, who was wearing high-tech equipment and even had the support of a giant ship, yet still couldn't break free from the seemingly primitive hemp rope.

"The main problem is that her move is too conspicuous... It would be quite troublesome if she were recognized. Brother Wang is a cautious person and doesn't want her to take the risk."

Lin Yu also saw that the leader of Group δ was kicking his legs and about to be hanged, so he quickly spoke up.

"Hey, Sister Pan, could you please go easy on me?"

"It's best to leave one alive; I still have a use for this guy."

As Lin Yu spoke, Pan Yuqiang glanced at him and said, "We can keep him alive, but he's still quite Life Force. Let's hang him for a while longer."

"If we put him down now, he might still be able to resist."

Seemingly afraid that Lin Yu wouldn't believe her, Pan Yuqiang added another sentence.

Trust me, I'm a professional.

Since Pan Yuqiang said so, Lin Yu naturally chose to believe her.

He nodded silently, then looked at Pan Yuqiang's gallows.

A few more minutes passed, and Pan Yuqiang observed that the leader of Group δ had gradually stopped struggling and seemed to be foaming at the mouth under his mask. She felt that it was about time.

Then, Pan Yuqiang snapped her fingers.

"Smack!"

With a crisp sound, the enormous gallows appeared out of thin air on the roof of the car.

The leader of Group δ fell to the ground. Pan Yuqiang waved her hand, and Wang Yuyang walked over, picked up the unconscious man, and jumped off the roof of the car with Pan Yuqiang in tow.

Wang Yuyang threw the man in front of Lin Yu.

What use are you?

He looked at Lin Yu and asked.

Lin Yu pointed to the giant ship that was still standing there overhead.

Although it hasn't taken any action since the leader of the Delta Group fell into a coma, according to Coleman's words, the Wrath Throne doesn't seem to dare to unleash its full firepower on the train carriages because of the existence of the "Despair Furnace".

But its lingering presence here continues to cause significant psychological stress.

With the help of Li Nian, Baron Coleman temporarily suppressed the machines that had gone berserk during the Great Purge while Wang Yuyang was fighting the leader of Group δ.

But precisely because of this, he seemed to have reached a certain limit—this was evident from Baron Coleman's slightly bloodshot eyes.

If this Wrath Throne were to unleash new robots and sentries to launch an attack, then a direct confrontation would likely be the only option.

Even if Wang Yuyang can eliminate the leader of Group δ, he may not be able to save everyone in the face of the endless stream of robots.

So...

"His first and foremost task was to drive this thing away."

As Lin Yu spoke, he looked up at the giant ship in the sky.

"Hey, President Paris, are you watching...? Let's make a deal."

"Your trusted aide is in our hands. We guarantee his life will be safe. How about you transfer this guy away?"

"Let's each take a step back... You don't really want us to die, right?"

"It's not impossible for you to kill us, but can you guarantee that you'll kill us all in the blink of an eye before he dies—and that's while minimizing the risk of blowing up the Furnace?"

As Lin Yu spoke, the giant machine in the sky remained silent, just as it had been when faced with Baron Coleman's accusations.

But...

Lin Yu is not Baron Coleman, and the situation is different now than before.

He waved his hand.

"It seems President Paris can't hear, or he doesn't care whether this person lives or dies..."

"Then let's just kill him—please do it, Brother Wang."

Lin Yu spoke politely, Wang Yuyang nodded.

"It's nothing."

His exoskeleton Mecha had dissipated, but Wang Yuyang casually stretched out his hand and conjured a long sword again.

Just as Wang Yuyang was about to make his move...

The giant ship in the sky trembled and made a sound.

"Stop, deal."

As the four simple words rang out, Lin Yu laughed.

"Well, as expected of President Paris, he certainly has the makings of a ruthless leader to have climbed to this position."

"You make decisions very decisively!"

Wang Yuyang also stopped what he was doing.

The giant ship offered no further opinions or bargaining, and immediately ascended into the sky.

Pan Yuqiang was very surprised.

"It's solved so easily. I thought it would take more effort."

Lin Yu shook his head.

"This is mainly due to the fact that the other party is the Truth Company, a group of people who can read people's emotions... so negotiating with them makes it easy to expose your weakness."

"But once you stop showing weakness, it's easy to control them."

"The reason I 'borrowed' Brother Wang's name just now is because, in their eyes, the Killing Intent emanating from Brother Wang must be very pure."

"In other words, if it hadn't been for the emergency stop, Brother Wang would have actually killed them outright—that created a deterrent effect."

Fu Luo looked at Wang Yuyang with deep respect.

"Dude, if you were born in the world of 'The Three-Body Problem,' humanity wouldn't have to worry about not having a Swordholder after Luo Ji."
