Fortune Telling

Lin Yu watched as the Lizardman conjured a comic book titled "Dinosaur Carries Wolf" out of thin air and handed it to him, and he felt as if his mind was truly going a little crazy.

He took the comic book and flipped through it a couple of times...

This comic actually has real content, and it feels substantial in your hand; it's not some illusion or Projection.

"This isn't right..."

Lin Yu felt a strange sense of unease enveloping him.

Does this Lizardman have the ability to manipulate or create objects from a distance?

Or perhaps... there's something strange about the window; maybe the medical staff at this "Asylum" made some kind of modification to address its symptoms?

In any case, in a "Death game" filled with supernatural and bizarre phenomena, conjuring up a comic book out of thin air isn't a particularly surprising or rare ability.

In fact, these are all basic abilities of "Player"—access to the [Item Space] is granted to Player as soon as they enter the "Death game".

But Lin Yu still felt something was wrong...

Even if he could come up with those "reasonable" explanations, Lin Yu's intuition told him that the current situation absolutely did not fit those seemingly reasonable explanations.

The Lizardman seemed to have delusions, moved and acted so naturally that it was as if it were actually in a comic book store filled with comics. Lin Yu even noticed that its elbow had accidentally touched something that might be a "cabinet" and shifted slightly—even the world's best master of pantomime could not achieve this level of performance.

This isn't a question of whether acting skills can achieve it, but rather whether ergonomics and physics can achieve it.

Even the best Film Emperor, when playing a flying deity, still need to be sculpted and have special effects applied!

So... Lin Yu, holding the comic book in his hands, felt that this group of "patients" was indeed a very deep pool.

"Is it that the delusions of a mentally ill person here can conjure up a world that no one else can see, or is it simply Projection of some High-dimensional being?"

Lin Yu, holding the comic book, looked at the Lizardman again.

"Thank you for the recommendation... I will definitely read this comic carefully."

Lin Yu bowed slightly in thanks as he spoke, and then left the table.

The Lizardman with the metal skull nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

Holding the comic book, Lin Yu began trying to approach the other patients.

His next target was Two-headed Bird sitting cross-legged on the ground not far away, playing chess.

In front of the Two-headed Bird was a chessboard. The square chessboard with black and white pieces looked like a Go board, but it only had ten vertical and ten horizontal lines, so it wasn't a standard Go board.

The two heads of this Two-headed Bird are also quite strange.

They both look like some kind of bird of prey, but one has no eyes on its face and the other has teeth in its beak.

A bird without a purpose holds a black bird by its head, while a bird with teeth holds a white bird by its head.

"Smack!"

Each time a piece is placed, the two bird heads shake their heads and begin praising each other and themselves.

"That's truly a masterful touch."

"That was a brilliant move! Hahaha!"

Lin Yu leaned over for a look, and there were two Crow wriggling a sheep's head.

His eye twitched.

Not only are they playing against themselves, but both of their heads are terrible at chess.

Noticing Lin Yu approaching while watching the game, both bird heads turned towards Lin Yu simultaneously.

"A fellow chess player is watching the game. Would you like to play a game?"

The eyeless bird head on the left chuckled and spoke.

Before Lin Yu could respond, the toothed bird on the right spoke, its tone unfriendly.

"Get out of here, get out of here. I only play chess with masters... You're of unknown origin, I'm not playing with you."

Lin Yu laughed as soon as he heard the bird head on the right speak.

"Okay, sorry to bother you!"

Lin Yu immediately turned and left.

He didn't have time to waste with the Two-headed Bird...

The patients were all in great danger, and Lin Yu kept this in mind.

The bird's head on the right looks grumpy... What if it gets angry during the game and starts fighting with itself?

The risk is too high, you'd be better off choosing another company!

After leaving the Two-headed Bird, Lin Yu found another creature sitting on a table, leaning against a mop, its entire body shrouded in jet-black fur.

Within that fluffy tuft of fur, a pair of bright red eyes shone brightly, like the indicator light on Ultraman's chest when he was out of energy.

Lin Yu stepped forward and stared at it for a moment.

The clump of hair opened.

He pointed to the mop beside him, his voice weary.

"Iron Mouth Divination, young and old alike!"

Lin Yu glanced at his position relative to the mop and understood.

So this mop that looks like a mop is actually a banner.

This Fuzzball in front of me turned out to be a fortune teller.

How much does Fortune Telling cost?

Lin Yu looked at the Fuzzball in front of him and asked.

The Fuzzball shook for a moment, and a withered hand emerged from it.

It pointed to the comic book in Lin Yu's hand...

"This."

"This? This is borrowed," Lin Yu said, glancing at the Lizardman was still reading comics. "This isn't mine; it belongs to him."

Lin Yu pointed to the Lizardman over there.

The Fuzzball waved its outstretched hand slightly.

"It's alright, just give it to me."

Lin Yu hesitated, somewhat worried that this might cause him trouble.

But after considering it for a moment, he felt that there shouldn't be a big problem, so he handed the comic book to Fuzzball.

Fuzzball took the comic book, then tucked his entire hand inside it and fell silent.

A few seconds later, just as Lin Yu was wondering if this thing had hacked his comic book and was pretending to be stupid, it suddenly spoke again.

"Count, count, count, the myriad changes are endless."

"Look, look, there are so All Living Beings and All Their Forms to see."

"It is said that your arrival here today signifies an unfinished karmic connection with me, a half-immortal."

"Fate is fate, and immortals are immortals; heavenly secrets cannot be revealed through words."

"Listen carefully to the seven parts of what I've said hidden in these words, and those words themselves contain seven parts mystery."

"It is said that ten rivers converge at the summit of Trapped Dragon Peak, where mountains connect to rivers and rivers connect to mountains."

"Those who enter the mountains are all Guest in the Mountains; but where has the mountain master gone?"

"Don't mistake pine and cypress trees for fellow travelers; recognize that snakes and insects are not human!"

"A child born with the appearance of a tiger or leopard, a hermit turned upside down becomes an immortal."

"Having discussed the situation in the mountains, let's now talk about the three Guest in the Mountains."

"Everyone who has come to this mountain has a reason; I will tell you slowly, listen carefully."

"One is a fake temple enshrining the real Laozi, unaware that he himself is just wood and stone; entering the mountain and joining the trap is not his true intention, and without revealing his true nature, disaster will not occur."

"One is a mountain, different yet similar; revisiting this familiar place, the longing remains; entering this game, one is not a piece; remaining outside the board, one does not play a move."

"One is like a misty mountain, one's heart is like an illusion, clinging to old appearances and finding it hard to extricate oneself; one's body is already trapped in a thousand layers of predicament, where can a deadly predicament truly imprison the heart!"

After saying that, the Fuzzball shook the mop behind it, which surprisingly made a clear bell sound.

"You who are destined to meet me, I have finished speaking... Now you may go!"

After saying that, Fuzzball fell silent.

Lin Yu was stunned for a moment, then quickly pulled out the [Ancient Notebook] and wrote down everything the Fuzzball had said!
