After Lin Yu stood up, he also noticed that Stiller glanced in his direction without making a sound.

Lin Yu's face was disguised with a [Mask], making him look like a somewhat fierce-looking guy, quite different from his original appearance.

This was also a suggestive arrangement left by Lin Yu regarding his identity as a "Rakshasa".

But precisely because of this, Stiller recognized Lin Yu even faster.

At the same time, for the same reason, Stiller need not worry that his gaze will expose Lin Yu.

"After all, it's normal for people to be unable to resist taking a second look at my face these days."

Upon seeing his "boss" also there, Stiller couldn't help but perk up even more.

Faced with the barbarian's accusations, Stiller stepped forward and responded forcefully.

"Hey, you barbarian, watch your words!"

"If we had done it, we would have wiped you two out long ago while those unlucky guys over there were under the influence of the poison!"

"Besides, we don't have any means of poisoning, and there's no one among us who knows how to poison."

Stiller said firmly.

Even though he didn't know these Player, Stiller still said that.

After all, he is now the backbone of this group of Player.

Just as Lin Yu had predicted, Old Zheng had put a lot of effort into integrating Stiller into the Player community. At least in the initial introduction of Stiller's Profession and identity, it was Old Zheng who helped explain it so that Stieler could pass the test.

But he's managed to rise to his current position as the team's core leader and leader...

Actually, it was more due to Stiller's own personal charisma that he deserved credit!

Although Stiller has never been a "Player," he does have experience leading a team.

When he worked for President Paris in the Security Department Truth Company, as the leader of the elite operations team, Stiller knew very well how to be a good leader.

The action team of Truth Company, in particular, is in a similar situation to him.

These are all small teams formed for the purpose of responding to combat.

And when faced with external criticism in this situation... Stiller almost Memory did what he would have done at Truth Company.

Regardless of whether it was done by their own team members or not, they first deny it and then turn around and accuse the perpetrator.

"In my opinion, you might have poisoned him yourselves and then tried to frame us! You probably think internal Struggle sounds bad and are afraid of being purged by your own people!"

Stiller spoke sharply.

Instantly, even the previously Leng Jing barbarian spoke in a cold voice, "Human Race, do you want to fight us to the death?"

"It's clearly you who are looking for trouble," Stiller said coldly. "Why should I bother with you at this Festival? If I really don't like you, can't I just fight you?"

"Let me repeat myself: if I harbored hostility towards you, do you think you'd still be standing in this tent talking to me?"

After he finished speaking, the Player behind him echoed him firmly.

"That's right, do you think we're afraid of a few barbarians like you!"

"Would it be necessary to poison you to get rid of you?"

Several Player chimed in, and Lin Yu, watching this scene, became even more satisfied with Stiller.

"He's not only the backbone, but he also clearly has a lot of authority..."

Lin Yu instantly realized that, given Stiller's current prestige and credibility among these Player, it was not impossible for him to tell everyone something that sounded like a fantasy but wasn't entirely impossible.

Even if he said that Ultraman Tiga was actually in this book, these Player would probably hesitate to believe it was true.

"But the number of people I've received so far is clearly not as many as the 'firm belief' of five people," Lin Yu pondered, considering this situation that was obviously inconsistent with reality. "So... did Stiller or Old Zheng not find a suitable opportunity in their judgment?"

"Or perhaps, although Stiller appears to be the leader on the surface, isn't one of the five Player around him a bit odd?"

Lin Yu quickly considered all the possibilities.

The latter is highly likely!

After all, only two people are currently enthusiastically echoing Stiller's sentiments.

Although Lin Yu could tell from their performances that there was almost no acting involved...

However, the remaining people didn't react with the same excitement or exaggerated behavior, so Lin Yu couldn't discern what they were thinking.

Although Lin Yu is a master of acting and often silently observes and speculates on other people's behavior in various situations in order to improve his acting skills, he has a great understanding of how to tell if someone is "acting".

However, Lin Yu's ability in this area did not reach the level of mind reading.

He still needs to observe many behaviors before he can draw a comprehensive conclusion.

In other words, judging solely from performance so far...

Lin Yu only knew that among this group of Player, the two who were currently putting pressure on Stiller were definitely the ones who trusted Stiller the most.

"In that case, we might be able to find an opportunity to help Stiller later, at least to find out which of these Player are the more 'troublesome' ones."

As Lin Yu pondered, Jue was also awakened by the commotion from the other side.

"It's so noisy," Fern said sleepily as she sat up, clearly having just fallen asleep. "What's going on?"

"The two groups are arguing," Lin Yu said calmly. "The barbarians are accusing several Human Race over there of poisoning them, Human Race deny it."

Upon hearing this, Fern looked around and then a hopeful expression appeared on her face. "Wow, it's even the Player and NPCs arguing with each other!"

"This is getting interesting... I wonder how they'll deal with this monster?"

"I'd also like to see how the so-called 'no fighting in the Healing Place's Rule actually works!"

After all, most of the Rule within each [Instance] are not absolute or mandatory.

Most Game Rule are implemented through the unique mechanics of that Instance, relying on NPCs or Item within the Instance, rather than being enforced by the system.

Only a small number of Game have Rule that allow the system to directly restrict Player behavior.

Even Player whose Profession isn't "Hooligan" can still break the Rule in the Game —as long as they have enough skill to withstand or circumvent the consequences of breaking the Rule.

Meanwhile, on Stiller's side, a battle was indeed imminent!

The Player are relatively better off, since compared to the Black Marsh World inhabitants who are full of martial spirit, these Player from the Real World generally value their lives more.

The reason it's said to be on the verge of erupting is entirely because the barbarian territory is already at a dangerously high level.

"Human Race, you poisoned us and slandered our brotherhood! This is outrageous!"

The barbarian no longer cared about his elder brother; he threw him to the ground and drew a pair of bone knives from behind his back.

"I'm going to kill you all! To avenge my brother!"

Stiller observed the other person's appearance and activated his vision, which allowed him to perceive Emotion Energy.

Seeing the other party's almost complete rage, he finally realized that the Black Marsh World was different from his original world.

"I really have to take back what I said before, these guys are even more insane than the Great Wilderness People!"

He originally intended to provoke the other party without resorting to violence, but who knew that these few words would make the barbarian ready to fight to the death!

Stiller even wanted to remind the other party...

Your older brother isn't dead yet, why don't you try treating him first?
