Death Game: Starting as a fraudster, pretending to be a god - Chapter 421

For Lin Yu, he was not 100% sure that Fern was the ‘liar’.

But based on Fern’s current behavior, Lin Yu felt that there was at least a 98% chance that she was a ‘liar’.

At least compared to a ‘hunter’, she was more like the type who made a living by deceiving others.

From the moment they met, she liked to find opportunities to supplement her ‘past’, why she awakened as a hunter, where she learned the weapon use skills…

She didn’t need to ‘explain’, life is not a drama, and there is no need to explain the situation to the audience.

Unless, all this is really a script and setting she wrote.

But if it was just like this, Lin Yu was still not sure that the other party was a ‘liar’ – after all, this was just a little strange in Lin Yu’s opinion, and it could not be called evidence that the other party was a liar or lying.

Maybe she just had a pleasing personality caused by some trauma in her original family, so she habitually explained everything to others?

Even because the other party was the first player Lin Yu met, Lin Yu would consider probability and statistics, and think that the probability of her being a ‘liar’ was relatively small.

But as time went by and the two of them got along, Lin Yu felt that the other party was “lying”.

First of all, she did not use the ability of the ‘Hunter’.

Although she used accurate crossbow shooting, it does not mean that this was caused by the ability of the ‘Hunter’… It may just be a skill that the other party has mastered through hard training.

And she claimed to be ‘Second Level’.

Even if she lied about this part, she should be at least ‘First Level’ to enter this dungeon!

One of the two [Professional Items] that a ‘First Level’ Hunter can obtain is [Trap].

If she had this [Item], she should have tried to use it when he proposed to do it – Lin Yu had read the information about [Trap]. This thing has a very fast cooldown among [Professional Items], and it can be refreshed every two hours.

He saw a post inside the ‘Order’ complaining that many ‘Hunters’ who chose [Trap] were like obsessive-compulsive disorder, basically putting a [Trap] on the ground every two steps, as if they would suffer a great loss if they did not use it after the cooldown time was up.

Lin Yu has been with her for almost half a day, and this guy has never used a [trap] once… If she really has this [professional item], then her willpower is amazing!

As for the other [professional item], the [partner] that Lin Yu had seen the ‘Mosin Nagant’ use, it is even more impossible.

If there was, he would have called it out in advance when hunting yesterday… Even if he didn’t have time because he killed too fast, he shouldn’t have done so when he was on the road today!

Although the [partner] has a cooldown time, it is not as precious as a semi-consumable item that can only be used twice in a game!

For ‘players’, [professional items] are like a cripple’s cane and a blind man’s guide dog. It is not necessary to have them, but those who insist on not using them after having them must have some problems.

Just like Lin Yu’s two [professional items], he is a little too dependent on these two things!

Moreover, it was the appearance of the crow head item that really made Lin Yu start to seriously consider the possibility that “Fern is a ‘liar'” from suspicion.

From the moment the crow’s head appeared, Lin Yu realized that this item was definitely an item that was strongly related to the God of Change.

Although most players rarely have experience with gods, Lin Yu happens to be special in this regard.

He even has two gods to use as samples for reference.

Whether it is the God of Change or the God of Banquet, it seems that items that are directly related to these gods, such as [Tooth of Prophecy], [Tongue of Lie], [Feast Pendant]… all carry the will of the gods themselves, and will appear in [Item Rewards].

Although it is not ruled out that Fern really got the crow’s head by chance, Lin Yu is more inclined to believe that the other party really got the favor of the crow.

And the crow will not favor a skilled hunter.

Judging from his full name and the appreciation he expressed for Li Nian and himself, this crow has a special liking for guys who are good at “cheating”.

Knowing that there is indeed a profession called “cheater” in this dungeon, Lin Yu would easily give priority to the guy who has the [props] related to the God of Change, could it be…

the “cheater”.

Based on this assumption, looking at Fern’s behavior again, her character was still a careless “hunter” at the beginning, but as she became more and more aware that Lin Yu seemed to be “an NPC pretending to be a player”, her disguise became more and more sloppy.

She began to show that she was good at taking advantage of part of human nature. Although she was still deliberately fooling around, those parts were becoming more and more perfunctory.

It was like she pretended that she didn’t know how to correctly use the two questions of the crow’s head prop to get a confirmed answer, which was such a simple technique, but later she asked the questions in a very rigorous way.

These are two behaviors that are almost contradictory.

It is difficult for a careless person to suddenly become rigorous, but it is very likely that a rigorous and cautious person will pretend to be careless.

“So, patience is also a part of deception. Even if you are a real professional-level ‘liar’ certified by this game and recognized by yourself, even if you have been promoted to ‘second level’,” Lin Yu closed his eyes gently, ” But that’s it.”

Judging from the final result of the two people getting along for half a day, it can be said that Lin Yu won a complete victory in the “deception” duel.

Both of them are hiding their identities…but now Lin Yu is still hiding, and Feng has exposed his identity.

Even what Fern believed was what Lin Yu wanted her to believe.

This was not planned by Lin Yu. He did not foresee the possibility that the first person he met would be a ‘liar’.

But the result was within Lin Yu’s expectation.

Ultimately…it’s because what Fern does the worst is what he does best.

Because he never slacked off at all in his “fraud” by means of “performance”.

No matter how stupid the NPC is, or even when he is alone, Lin Yu will implement his own personality.

Therefore, after taking control of the game with Fern, Lin Yu couldn’t help but have new questions.

“I concealed my identity because of the ability of the ‘Fraudster’, and I pretended to be an NPC because of the requirements of the ‘Upgrade Mission’…”

“But although ‘liar’ is called ‘liar’, his ability has no characteristics that must be concealed… So what is the reason why this guy conceals his identity?”

“It can’t be a professional habit!”
