The rain gradually intensified.
The sudden appearance of 'Fluoxetine' on the pier interrupted this chaotic battle.
As a member of the 'Psychological Society', her initiative to stop the chaos at this moment was somewhat puzzling, even making the two from 'Night Watchmen' and Li Hua from 'Order' secretly wonder.
"Is this person planning something bigger for tomorrow?"
But currently, Fluoxetine's actions aligned with everyone's intentions, so no one raised objections.
In unspoken agreement, even though someone universally disliked stood there making an appearance, everyone seemed to tacitly give her face and actually withdrew.
Sitting on the bow of the boat, 'Fluoxetine' watched the considerably eased atmosphere and smiled faintly.
"Good, everyone knows how to correct mistakes when they're wrong..."
"Anyway—others are fine, but Fish, Li Hua, Phantom, Robin... I spared your lives in the dungeon and invited you here, not for you to recklessly waste your lives here."
Before anyone could react, she had already stood up.
"Alright everyone, that's all I have to say... We'll meet tomorrow!"
The figure of the young girl leaped downward, falling toward the river water.
But...
Everyone present could see clearly by the firelight.
That figure completely disappeared before even hitting the water!
Li Hua on the shore pupils constricted.
"She's been hiding this move all along?"
......
Li Hua on the shore had his pupils contract sharply.
Lin Yu picked up the small octopus that had quickly climbed ashore from the water and placed it on his shoulder.
"Well done, Hannah."
"Didn't expect your line delivery to be so excellent."
"Your performance successfully fooled everyone!"
The small pink octopus scratched its head, showing an embarrassed smile.
"That's all thanks to Director's great teaching... The cards were written very detailed!"
As she spoke, Hannah waved the cue cards Lin Yu had written for her.
They contained not only lines and basic emotions but even detailed annotations in brackets like "pause half second here," "light laugh here," "slow speaking speed to half normal pace here"—truly meticulous.
The disappearing "Fluoxetine" figure on the boat earlier was naturally impersonated by Hannah's [Illusory Ink].
After all, it was almost impossible for Lin Yu himself to climb to such a high place without attracting attention midway.
But Hannah, who was only palm-sized and excellent at swimming, could easily accomplish it.
After praising Hannah, Lin Yu raised his binoculars and turned his gaze back to the opposite shore.
After the 'Free Alliance' arrived, Lin Yu had also come here.
He had indeed collected considerable information about several experts.
The caliber of players who took action this time was even higher than what he witnessed previously in Zheng City.
With this information, Lin Yu could make better estimates about high-level players' strength.
Meanwhile, among those who took action in this battle...
Fish, Tycoon, Li Hua, Old Zhou, Xiaoyun, Phantom, Robin, and even Snowy Owl who only made one move later...
When necessary, Lin Yu felt he could potentially impersonate them too.
Especially the four he had contact with during the last dungeon—after further grasping their personalities and combat styles, Lin Yu felt even more confident about fooling even those familiar with them!
Of course, Lin Yu also knew this move should be used cautiously.
But regardless, the information gained from this "chaos" was already more than enough for Lin Yu.
Lin Yu was someone who knew how to be content with what he had.
He also didn't want these four forces to reveal all their cards here tonight and fight to the death.
What if the 'Psychological Society' really ended up reaping the benefits tomorrow?
So Lin Yu immediately decided to have Hannah go up and deliver a few lines to dissuade them.
Then report safety to Captain High Mountain using his phone...
"I'm temporarily safe."
Although the situation had developed to this point, the weight of "May" as an external member seemed less significant now.
But this was still enough to become the final straw.
Across the riverbank, Lin Yu watched the scene on the opposite shore.
Everything unfolded exactly as his script had written—High Mountain approached and said something to Li Hua and Tycoon.
Then both sides exchanged a few tough words before withdrawing in different directions.
"Indeed, even when major organizations have extremely opposing stances, they're actually unwilling to start a war so hastily..."
Lin Yu silently noted this point too before leaving the riverbank.
So Lin Yu immediately decided to have Hannah go up and deliver a few lines to persuade them.
Lying in bed, as expected...
Various apps including the forum were exploding.
Tonight's pier chaotic battle, which he started and propelled, was indeed enough to be called an earthquake in the "player community."
There were enough famous experts present.
The originally present 'Marauders' members, plus the arriving 'Order' and 'Jiang'an Hall' reinforcements, were enough to instantly spread these news through various circles.
"Friends, Tycoon and Li Hua did something big in Jiangcheng tonight!"
"Marauders' Fish plus Free Alliance's four against Night Watchmen's two plus Gambler and Tycoon—so intense!"
"More than that, Jiangcheng almost triggered a full-scale war tonight!"
"Compared to that time in Zheng City?"
"That Zheng City incident was far less! I know our Hecheng Game Master—he almost went to reinforce immediately! Fortunately, it didn't actually break out!"
"I heard the trigger was the same person—this time it's still 'May May'!"
"That 'Doctor' again?! Really?!"
"Rumor, but supposedly reliable!"
Message after message scrolled by—exactly the level of discussion Lin Yu wanted to see.
"Tonight's impromptu additional performance had really good effects... This level of heat should make tomorrow even more eye-catching!"
Lin Yu said with satisfaction.
The fame of 'May May' had indirectly increased significantly too.
Of course, this wasn't Lin Yu's main objective.
Beyond "information," what satisfied Lin Yu most about tonight's additional performance was...
"Some woman suddenly appeared at the scene at the end, and then everyone seemed to stop fighting!"
"And apparently she invited all those people, meaning she created that puzzle?"
"Who is that character! I was on site—both 'Snowy Owl' and 'Gambler' looked serious, even 'Fish' seemed very wary of that person!"
This was what Lin Yu most wanted to see.
The usually mysterious "Fluoxetine," who only had reputation in high-level player circles...
Had finally stepped into the view of the general players.
"May you be seen by the world, dear Miss Fluoxetine."
Lin Yu said with a smile.
