Wild Boar

"Soul Dissolution Infusion?"

Just hearing the name, Lin Yu felt he could roughly guess the symptoms.

But that's not important...

The important thing is...

"Could this be another world where 'Truth Company' is located?"

Lin Yu muttered to himself.

According to information he obtained from forums and various organizations, almost all Instance "Death game" are distributed across the seven known worlds.

Of course, some Player claim to have definite information that they have found something called "Ten Realms" in certain high-end Instance.

But so far, no one has discovered the remaining three worlds... Even some unclassifiable Instance cannot be confirmed to belong to entirely new worlds.

The seven known worlds are relatively independent, but not entirely independent—it seems that because of the existence of "Player" and Deity, the top beings in different worlds have begun to exchange things with each other.

For example, the world where "Mist Island" is located and the world where "Truth Company" is located are not the same.

However, on the Truth Company's "Despair Train," Lin Yu was able to find a bottle of aged wine from the Mist Island Manor.

So...

Although Lin Yu suspected that this was the world where "Truth Company" was located, he was not sure.

And indeed...

His conjecture was refuted by Stiller.

"To be honest, it doesn't really look like it," Stiller muttered. "I didn't sense any Emotion Energy ... In such a large building, and a 'hospital' at that, there isn't a single emotion collection device, not even a remnant. It's unbelievable."

Hannah chimed in, "Hmm... this person's flesh is very different from the flesh in Stiller's world."

Lin Yu nodded. "I see."

He trusted their judgment.

Moreover... this solitary confinement cell is indeed quite rudimentary.

Even in the Great Wilderness, Truth Company has a near-future feel to it.

But this room... the solitary confinement cell's upholstery was made of artificial leather, the iron door looked rusty, and the lock was very rudimentary.

Even in Lin Yu's Real World, it's considered somewhat outdated.

Since it's not Truth Company's territory, things are a little easier.

There are only three Player in this Instance, and he doesn't know who the other two are.

But this time there was no team, and no reliable "Tier 2" experts.

Even though he wasn't using the identity of "Zhu Ming," the fact that Stiller was with him and carried various inheritances from Will Valetti and Baron Coleman made him somewhat conspicuous in the eyes of the higher-ups at Truth Company.

During the conversation, Stiller also cut the last restraint on Lin Yu's body.

"Alright."

Lin Yu freed himself from the chair and then stood up.

"Now... it's time to go out of this room and take a look."

Although we don't yet know what the "island" mentioned in the mission's Clearance Conditions refers to, the theme of this Instance should be escaping from this facility, which is probably Mental Hospital.

Judging from the actions Stiller just took, his "bodyguard" should be able to handle most of the enemies that appear in the early stages of this Instance.

The fact that the monsters spawning in the initial room can be instantly killed suggests that this Instance might not be very difficult.

Lin Yu couldn't help but feel a little optimistic.

Just as he was about to figure out how to open the door...

Suddenly, the door lock made a turning sound.

Lin Yu frowned slightly, waved his hand, and instructed Hannah, "Disguise Stiller and hide him for now."

Although this isn't Instance of the Truth Company, Stiller is still too conspicuous.

Hannah jumped onto Stiller, and then an invisible camouflage covered Stiller.

"Quack! Don't move, Mr. Stiller!"

Stiller stood still, watching the doorway warily.

And soon...

The door opened.

A woman wearing gold-rimmed glasses, with her hair tied up and dressed in a loose black shirt, carefully pushed open the door, Card Key dangling from her mouth.

She was startled to see the enormous creature lying on its back in the room and Lin Yu standing calmly.

"Wow, man... that was fast?!"

"They've escaped, and even taken down that terrifying guy."

The other person spoke with a distinctive Xiangtan accent and opened the door a little wider.

Seeing the other party's posture, Lin Yu naturally understood...

This guy is Player.

Lin Yu raised an eyebrow and said calmly, "You're not slow either; you've already found me directly."

After Lin Yu expressed his willingness to communicate, the woman relaxed her guard a little, carefully slipped into the room, and slowly closed the door.

Lin Yu also got a good look at her appearance—her features were delicate and well-proportioned, she was in her twenties, and she had a bit of a celebrity look.

"Oh, buddy," the woman said in a low voice, "I just took a shortcut... First of all, I'm a 'thief,' and secondly, I just ran away without fighting that big guy in my room!"

"It's still angrily wandering the hallway looking for me."

She sighed, a relieved look on her face. "But it's good to see you can handle it... This Instance doesn't look like it's competitive, let's team up!"

"I'm from the Night Watcher, a legitimate and reputable organization, and my character is reliable!"

As he spoke, the man pulled out a small black notebook from his pocket and unfolded it.

It looks similar in size and style to a driver's license, but it contains the certification information for "Night Watcher Star City Branch Operator".

Lin Yu casually took it—this thing was the same as the "Order" shield badge, and it even allowed him to skip the [Item] description.

[Night Watcher Passport: Player -created Item, produced by the "Night Watcher".]

This is indeed a genuine anti-counterfeiting certificate. Official members of large-scale "Righteous Path" organizations such as "The Order," "The Night Watcher," and "Player Mutual Aid Society" will basically all possess one.

Lin Yu naturally believed her, and then solemnly took out the badge he had just received.

"Hello, comrade 'Night Watcher,' I am 'May May,' a member of Team One of the Order's Jiang City Branch. This is my badge."

He also handed his badge to the woman.

The woman, who was already showing a surprised and delighted smile upon hearing Lin Yu's words, beamed even more after taking the badge and discovering that it was genuine.

"Don't be angry, Mom!" she said, quickly handing the badge back to Lin Yu, "Now it's all settled!" (Lin Yu is a full member of "Order")

"Hello comrade, I am Max from the Night Watcher, Tier 1, Thief, with the advancement path being [Magic Pouch]. I excel at infiltration and intelligence gathering."

Lin Yu felt something was off when he heard the woman's introduction.

"Huh? Why is your codename 'Max'?"

"Aren't the codenames for 'Night Watcher' all birds and beasts? Ordinary members use names that run on the ground, while core members use names that fly in the sky."

Faced with Lin Yu's questioning, the woman who called herself "Max" was a little embarrassed, and her Mandarin, which was originally only slightly accented, completely slipped into Xiangjiang River.

"I'm afraid my name doesn't sound very good."

She spoke hesitantly, but seeing Lin Yu's silent gaze, she still spoke up a little shyly.

"Comrade, my internal code name for the 'Night Watcher' is 'Wild Boar'."
