The Imminent Battle, "Soldier" Lin Yu!

"Psychology Society"?

Hearing the name, Lin Yu understood.

Wasn't this the organization he saw yesterday on the forum that was banned from "accessing the forum"?

As expected, it's nothing good!

Lin Yu silently reached into his pocket, hiding the revolver.

The [Infallible Revolver] still only had one bullet after returning to reality—though the number of bullets refreshed daily, unlike in an instance where there was only one for the entire game.

Lin Yu didn't rashly fire, nor did he even reveal the handgun.

Although this one-shot-guaranteed bullet was very powerful, but...

The other party had already introduced themselves, stating they were from an organization.

And it was an organization specifically named by the "Forum"!

This meant that the "Psychology Society" was not only likely not a good group, but also quite well-known, possibly large and powerful.

To put it mildly...

Besides this unidentified man in black, their organization also included that lunatic who shot him earlier.

Therefore, Lin Yu decided to negotiate with the other party first.

"Who exactly are you people, and why did you try to kill me before?"

Lin Yu asked coldly.

The man in black chuckled, "Kill you? No, no, no... Our goal isn't to make you die, but to have you join the Death game!"

"Because according to the organization's 'evaluation,' you have great potential—just as we expected, you were chosen and successfully cleared the instance!"

"Our organization is dedicated to finding potential individuals... those capable of achieving extraordinary things in this game, but who haven't joined yet... We absolutely will not allow their talents to go to waste."

Hearing the man in black's excited words, Lin Yu became even more convinced that the people in this organization were mentally unstable.

"What a bunch of lunatics... No wonder the forum banned you."

The man in black scoffed at Lin Yu's words.

"The forum? It's just a place for mediocre talents to huddle together for warmth!"

"Alright... We don't have much time. To prevent interference from mediocre talents, I'll complete my task first."

Saying that, the man in black looked at Lin Yu, "So, esteemed Mr. Lin Yu, what profession have you awakened?"

The man in black looked at Lin Yu.

Lin Yu narrowed his eyes, "Why should I tell you?"

Not to mention that he had awakened the Unique Profession "Deceiver," which he couldn't tell anyone anyway.

Even if Lin Yu had awakened another profession, he wouldn't tell the man in black or the "Psychology Society."

"Because this is also part of the 'evaluation.' You'd better cooperate with us... otherwise..."

The man in black drew a dagger from his waist.

"I'll have to extract the information myself."

Lin Yu looked at the sharp, gleaming dagger in the man in black's hand and instantly felt a sense of danger again.

What would happen if a Player participating in the Death game were killed again in reality?

The answer was... instant death.

So, Lin Yu almost immediately wanted to fire his gun.

But he suppressed the urge.

The man in black in front of him was his only clue right now... this guy couldn't die.

Moreover, although he had taken out a dagger, the threat was likely more for show.

Therefore, Lin Yu said coldly.

"Is that so? Then I'm looking forward to you trying!"

Lin Yu put away his handgun and bent down, picking up half a brick from the ground with one hand—in old city areas like this, many bricks on the ground were cracked and loose, and could be lifted with a gentle pry.

The man in black looked at Lin Yu's confident posture, somewhat surprised.

"You don't seem very afraid of fighting me head-on? A brick doesn't have an advantage against a dagger, and you don't even know my profession yet?"

"It doesn't matter what my profession is, because the profession I awakened is the most suitable for combat, 'Soldier'."

Lin Yu said.

He had made his choice.

Facing this man in black whose background was unknown, Lin Yu decided to impersonate a "Soldier"!

After all, Yu Longguo's monstrous combat prowess had left a deep impression on Lin Yu.

Furthermore, Lin Yu had looked at the summary of common professions' abilities yesterday, and among the common professions, the one most suitable for one-on-one combat was the "Soldier," which provided comprehensive and significant enhancements to physical abilities!

The man in black paused, then shook his head. "Impossible. Your real-world profession and experiences have almost no connection to 'Soldier.' We investigated you; you're a university student..."

Lin Yu chuckled.

"Looks like you never went to university. Don't you know they have military training?"

As he spoke, he hefted the brick in his hand without hesitation, holding it level in front of him.

"Watch carefully, idiot... Even if you had a dagger, it wouldn't compare to the buffs 'Soldier' gives me!"

The man in black's expression shifted slightly.

Lin Yu looked at the man in black, raising the arm holding the brick high. Without holding back any strength, he slammed the brick down onto his own other arm.

And as the brick descended—

Lin Yu felt his words from earlier "come true"!

In that instant, the man in black believed he was a 'Soldier' because of Lin Yu's insane move!

After all, why would anyone be so decisive in crippling themselves right before a fight unless they had genuine confidence?

This was precisely Lin Yu's goal.

He deliberately raised the brick high to give the other party time to think and judge... Only then could the "belief" arise in his heart!

As for the decisiveness and confidence, Lin Yu had obviously just been acting.

And his gamble paid off.

As belief surged within the man in black...

Lin Yu truly became a 'Soldier' at that moment!

He instantly felt his physical capabilities multiply. His entire body was filled with strength, and he felt incredibly light.

"Crack!"

The brick landed on Lin Yu's forearm, sending a slight sting.

However, his reinforced skin, muscles, and bones had enhanced Lin Yu's resilience. The brick only caused a minor pain upon impact, causing no real harm!

The brick itself, however, shattered into two pieces upon hitting Lin Yu's arm.

Lin Yu looked at the man in black before him.

"Alright, you know my profession now."

"Since you admitted earlier that you're from the same organization as the guy who killed me... then it's reasonable for me to seek revenge, right?"

Lin Yu said, clenching his fist.

"It's time to reveal your 'profession.' Otherwise, don't blame me for forcing it out of you!"

The man in black looked at Lin Yu, who exuded an imposing aura, and chuckled.

"Heh, I'll tell you then. Although your profession is 'Soldier,' the organization sent me to contact you, so naturally, my profession is also sufficient to handle this situation."

"Oh?"

Lin Yu narrowed his eyes, looking at the man in black.

The man in black put away his dagger and took two pitch-black spheres from his body.

"Heh heh, didn't expect this, did you... My profession might not be a Unique Profession, but it's a relatively rare and powerful type!"

"My profession is 'Ninja'—Farewell, Lin Yu!"

With that, the man in black threw the two spheres onto the ground, and smoke quickly billowed up.

"Cough cough!"

The choking smoke carried a slight spicy scent, causing Lin Yu's eyes to water and a mild burning sensation in his nose and mouth.

By the time he waved away the smoke and opened his eyes again, the man in black had already vanished!

Looking at the empty street under the vast night sky, Lin Yu felt helpless.

"'Ninja'? If professions are related to real-world 'experiences,' how can someone awaken a profession like that?"

That guy didn't look Japanese at all!

Did he awaken it from playing too much of that Naruto mobile game?
