Although some controversies arose during the final stages, which could be considered minor flaws, Lin Yu, a guy who aspires to be a "Profession Actor" and is somewhat obsessive about "performance" matters, was still somewhat troubled and conflicted...

However, from the perspective of the overall situation, this is indeed a trivial and insignificant matter that only Lin Yu would worry about.

After all, most people didn't even hear Lin Yu's lines.

While Lin Yu was posing and reciting his lines, he didn't give his opponent any chance to turn the tables.

Water overcomes fire; this is almost the most classic relationship of restraint—so classic that similar settings appear in works from different cultures and regions.

Because that's the truth.

A sudden downpour completely extinguished the fire that "Zhu Rong" had meticulously prepared as a final backup plan, and also extinguished his flame of hope.

At the same time, the heavy rain washed away the rice stalks piled on the ground, and also broke the other side's backbone.

The Player, soaking wet, slumped to the ground, retrieved [Fertile Land] and the rest of the [Item], and sat slumped down.

Lin Yu stepped forward, wiped the water from his face, and looked down at him.

Aren't you going to run away?

Zhu Rong sighed, "I told you, if you can withstand this move, I will surrender."

Lin Yu raised an eyebrow in surprise. "Can you really take that seriously?"

"Of course, you have to take what you say seriously. What's the point of making a promise if you can't keep it?"

Zhu Rong said matter-of-factly.

Outside the door, the Reinforcements, wading through the water, finally arrived. They cautiously waded forward and captured Zhu Rong.

Zhu Rong was lifted up by the bodyguards and glanced back at Lin Yu.

"Sherlock, you're amazing—I concede defeat!"

"However, one day I will win it back."

Zhu Rong spoke earnestly, while Lin Yu curled his lip.

"You should think about how to survive first."

"It's alright, I have a backup plan—but I'm curious, how did you recognize me?"

Zhu Rong asked curiously.

Lin Yu shrugged. "There are only so many skilled 'farmers' among the Player, and even fewer active in the City That Never Sleeps... Coincidentally, I'm considered well-informed by both the Player and the City That Never Sleeps."

This was said based on Fu Luo's identity.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Rong nodded slightly, indicating his agreement.

"I see!"

Of course, Lin Yu had only recently heard the name "Zhu Rong" in the City That Never Sleeps.

Although that person was clearly not the same as the Player in front of him, it was still a clue for Lin Yu.

Whether the other party is impersonating someone else or worshipping "Zhu Rong"... at least it shows that this name once existed in the City That Never Sleeps.

Based on previous intelligence from Sea City, "Zhu Rong" is a very strong "farmer".

With so many coincidences piled up together, and the ultimate move being related to fire, it was hard for Lin Yu not to guess that the opponent's identity was "Zhu Rong".

Certainly...

Even if he guessed wrong, Lin Yu didn't care.

In any case, it's Fu Luo who lost face.

Watching Zhu Rong being taken away, the soaking wet Lin Yu called Hannah back.

Barry, the old butler, also came into view.

Since Hannah had concealed herself the entire time, and Barry had almost lost consciousness from blood loss, he obviously didn't know how Lin Yu had hidden himself and treated him.

However, he could still tell that Lin Yu had saved him, so he stood up and thanked Lin Yu.

"Thank you, Sherlock."

Looking at the pale-faced old man, Lin Yu was impressed by his physical condition, noting that he could still stand at such a moment, and quickly waved his hand.

"Go and heal your wounds. I went through so much to save you, don't die in front of my face."

As Barry spoke, he walked toward the medical team that was Reinforcements and began receiving bandaging and medication.

Just as Barry left and Lin Yu was about to find another medical team, he heard a commotion behind him.

"Miss, the situation is still unclear..."

"Get out of my way! Don't try to tell me what to do!"

Accompanied by a firm voice, Lin Yu saw Nightless Sky Huo Le bypass several bodyguards and walk quickly toward him.

She looked at Lin Yu, who was covered in blood, and whispered, "You bastard, why are you fighting so hard?"

"You told me, this guy better not die."

Lin Yu shrugged and said.

Nightless Sky Huo Le clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, saying, "I also told you to prioritize your own safety—why are you only listening to what you want to do!"

Lin Yu spread his hands. "I'm perfectly safe."

"Shut up."

As he spoke, Nightless Sky Huo Le took out a pale red inhaler from his pocket, which was contained in a transparent tube, unpacked it, and put it into Lin Yu's mouth.

"Take your medicine!"

After speaking, Nightless Sky Huo Le Pressed the button on the inhaler, and the liquid instantly atomized and sprayed into Lin Yu's mouth.

In a short period of time, Lin Yu experienced a rapid surge of emotions, including joy, anger, sadness, happiness, and tranquility. Then, Lin Yu was astonished to discover...

His injuries had miraculously healed completely in an instant!

Not only that, but the physical strength and energy consumed were also fully replenished in a single breath.

Even the hypothermia caused by getting wet was relieved.

Lin Yu now felt like a high school student who had just finished the college entrance exam, slept soundly all day, enjoyed a delicious meal cooked by his family, and took a hot bath. He was sitting in front of his brand-new peripherals, feeling relaxed, comfortable, and full of energy.

Lin Yu, surprised, took the now-empty inhaler and looked at Nightless Sky Huo Le.

"Actually, there's no need for that. I'm really not badly injured."

Nightless Sky Huo Le said coldly, "I'm not blind. The scene was so horrific just now, and your clothes are covered in blood..."

"Even if you do have some kind of recovery method, at least... it can prevent you from having scars."

Upon hearing the words of the Nightless Sky Huo Le, Lin Yu asked, "It's very precious, isn't it?"

"It's not expensive at all," Nightless Sky Huo Le waved his hand. "I always carry several with me...it's just a consumable."

"Medicines are made for human use."

After saying this, Nightless Sky Huo Le turned around and called to the servants.

"His clothes are wet and smell of blood... Let's change him into a spare outfit for now, and find him a towel to dry him off. We can go downstairs to pick out a formal suit for you."

Nightless Sky Huo Le played, power was gradually restored.

The head of the bodyguards stepped forward again, somewhat hesitantly saying, "But, Your Excellency Nightless Sky Huo Le, this place may not still be safe..."

"You all saw how skilled Sherlock was just now," Nightless Sky Huo Le said calmly. "I'm the safest person around him."

"Besides, if I have to hastily change my plans because of this kind of farce... what kind of future heir to the Nightless Sky Family would I be!"

As she spoke, she glanced at the Nightless Sky Huo Shu who were hurriedly taking out their VIP car tickets, preparing for an emergency evacuation.
