Death Game: Starting as a fraudster, pretending to be a god.

Chapter 1490 Complete Authority, Traces of Lin Yu's Craving

The black fur ball was more sensible than Lin Yu had imagined.

After Lin Yu and Cheng Shuang approached, the furry black ball did not say anything like "long time no see".

It leaned on its wooden cane and gave a low shout.

"Hey-!"

The furry ball took a step towards Cheng Shuang and Lin Yu, and spoke first before the two could.

"The morning sun is dim, the mountains are boundless, birds fly a thousand miles and the clouds hide the sky; the thunder is rapid, the wind is gentle, yesterday's rain will fall tomorrow."

"Moss grows on the green stone, the vermilion gate is rusted, bamboo grows behind the high tiles and high walls; the sun and moon shine in the courtyard, the mountain stones and dry well lock away winter and autumn."

"Guests arrive at the host's house but see no guests; the hall is full of lush and secluded flowers and trees; the front hall is quiet and the courtyard is cold; the candles in the side rooms are both new and old."

"Where can one find guests? It is when the sun shines brightly, the ice is three feet thick, and waterfalls and rivers flow high!"

"I invited an old friend to drink under the moon, but when I turned around, I saw fish swimming in the mist."

After hearing the long string of words, Cheng Shuang and Lin Yu realized that the other person wasn't just spontaneously composing poetry, but rather using this method to foresee "fate," so they both wrote down all of those words.

Although he couldn't understand or analyze anything concrete yet, Lin Yu still had a basic idea in mind.

You can't go wrong by accepting these words yourself!

While the two were reciting Maoqiu's words, Maoqiu paused briefly after finishing speaking, then took a step forward and looked Cheng Shuang and Lin Yu up and down.

Immediately, Maoqiu readily spoke up.

"It is fate that we met. You two... have something to say to each other."

"Speaking!"

Maoqiu made a "please" gesture, and Cheng Shuang carefully looked at the other party before speaking.

"As expected of a being born from 'destiny'... Even a broken destiny is truly extraordinary."

"Then I won't waste any more words—do you know where here lies the 'unclaimed authority'? Complete."

As Cheng Shuang asked, Mao Qiu cleared his throat.

Lin Yu and Cheng Shuang were ready to write down the long string of nonsensical poems that Mao Qiu had recited.

then……

Maoqiu raised its arm.

"Over there, walk in this direction for about fifteen minutes, and you'll be able to 'sense' it."

"That's what Maoqiu said bluntly."

These words stunned Lin Yu and Cheng Shuang.

An expression of disbelief crossed their faces, and then Cheng Shuang spoke.

"Are you referring to what you mean by the literal meaning?"

Maoqiu looked at Chengshuang, its body tilting slightly to one side—although it was furry and had no "features" that could convey "emotions" or make "expressions," Lin Yu still managed to discern a sense of "confusion" in it.

"...Otherwise what? Is my word so difficult to understand?"

"I can't believe it," said Maoqiu, puzzled.

Cheng Shuang was even more shocked: "So you can speak properly?!"

"So you've seen this guy before too..."

Lin Yu watched Cheng Shuang's reaction and thought to himself.

However, upon hearing the furry ball's explanation, Lin Yu's astonishment was indeed no less than Cheng Shuang's.

Because he didn't know that this furry ball would give such a straightforward "hint".

After all, this little guy's speaking style has always been cryptic, and he likes to use various metaphors and limericks to give people inspiration.

Seemingly noticing Cheng Shuang and Lin Yu's confusion, Mao Qiu even took the initiative to explain.

"Gentlemen... I can speak normally."

“As long as it is unrelated to ‘fate’ and is not the ‘direction of the thread’ that I glimpse through ‘fate’, I do not need to speak it out in a veiled way.”

Upon hearing this, Cheng Shuang nodded slightly, but still expressed her confusion: "But what you just said, is it unrelated to 'fate'?"

"Of course it's unrelated. I know the location of that 'authority' because I saw it on my way here... This wasn't something I glimpsed through 'fate,' but something I encountered—perhaps 'fate' guided us to meet, but the fact that I 'know' about this matter has no direct relation to fate itself."

Maoqiu explained, and Lin Yu and Cheng Shuang both understood.

Since the information was not obtained through the power of "fate" but was directly "seen," there was no need to express it in a mystical manner.

"I see, thank you very much."

Cheng Shuang thanked the fluffy ball—she showed no hostility toward the life born from this incomplete authority.

after all……

Although the "Fragment of Fate" also has a high status, for the two of them, now that they know the location of another complete entity without sovereignty, this "fur ball" doesn't actually have any particularly attractive value.

Moreover, it would be beneficial to have a good relationship with him.

Cheng Shuang continued to ask.

"So, how do I get it? Will it be of any benefit to the 'result' I want?"

Cheng Shuang asked, and Mao Qiu shook his head slightly.

But this wasn't him giving a "no" answer to Cheng Shuang's question; rather, he was...

I declined to answer.

"You have no more questions. You don't need to confirm the answers to these trivial matters with me."

Then, Maoqiu looked at Lin Yu.

"And you, you still have questions to ask."

But compared to Cheng Shuang, who was rejected when she asked a question, Lin Yu, looking at the furry ball, was somewhat reluctant to ask any questions.

He wasn't truly without questions...

Lin Yu simply didn't want to ask Cheng Shuang any questions or let her hear the answers to the questions he wanted to ask.

Therefore, Lin Yu spoke up.

“I have nothing to ask—the only thing I want to know is where that sovereign authority is.”

At this point, Lin Yu looked at Cheng Shuang.

"Sister Cheng, since you don't have a chance to ask questions, but I still do... why don't you tell me everything you want to ask this guy, and I'll ask for you?"

Lin Yu looked at Cheng Shuang and said with a smile.

But before Lin Yu and Cheng Shuang could reach an agreement, Mao Qiu interrupted him upon hearing Lin Yu's words.

"I know what you want to know..."

It didn't give Lin Yu a chance to ask, and spoke directly.

"What you seek is not here, but things related to it, traces left by the person you long for, are also in this cage."

"It is in the 'bird's eye' and in the 'ephemeral heart'."

Lin Yu looked at the furry ball and asked in a deep voice, "What does this mean?"

Maoqiu said, "If you want to get there, you have to go to the forest to weave nets and fish, and to the river to carve intricate patterns and search for gold!"

Lin Yu looked at the fur ball and frowned.

"What nonsense! I can't understand a word of it."

He looked at Cheng Shuang, who was also eyeing him suspiciously.

However, Lin Yu spoke to Cheng Shuang first, quite naturally.

"Can you understand what this guy is saying, Sister Cheng?"

"The whole bunch of things I encountered when we first met were already a headache enough... what are these random things that are specifically targeting me?"

Cheng Shuang looked at Lin Yu's natural reaction and began to ponder.

What she was thinking about was definitely not what Maoqiu had said itself, but Lin Yu's reaction.

However... after seeing Lin Yu's "performance," it's hard for a normal person not to be influenced by his performance and make a judgment.

Because Lin Yu's performances are sometimes more than just realistic, making it impossible for people to distinguish between reality and fiction; they have an even deeper emotional impact than ordinary "realism"!

Therefore, Cheng Shuang looked at Lin Yu, and after thinking for a long time, she lowered her voice and slowly spoke.

"This is the revelation of 'fate'... Most revelations of 'fate' are like this—many 'professional' abilities with a 'prophetic' nature are also presented in this shrouded in mystery."

"Items related to the authority of 'fate' are probably all in this style... The ones it just told you about are considered good."

As Cheng Shuang spoke, Lin Yu nodded.

"I understand. I'll just write it down for now... Keep going, maybe I'll get some inspiration and suddenly I'll be able to understand it."

As Lin Yu spoke, he added, "Of course, if we still don't have any clue, we can just pretend it doesn't exist... Anyway, it was given to me for free."

Cheng Shuang nodded: "Your attitude is quite good."

As they talked, the last revelation that Maoqiu had given Lin Yu seemed to be "set aside".

Then, Cheng Shuang also looked at Mao Qiu.

"Now, do you have anything else to say to us?"

"Or...do we still have a chance to ask you questions?"

Maoqiu shook its head slightly as it listened to Chengshuang's words.

"I have told you all about the part of 'destiny' that you two can currently glimpse... Our karmic connection ends here today."

As it spoke, the furry ball stood up, put away its wooden staff, and leaned forward very politely towards the two of them—although its body was so round that it could hardly bend, Lin Yu still understood its intention.

This guy seems to be bowing to himself and Cheng Shuang.

after that……

The furball turned and left—it seemed to simply turn and take a step forward, but after that step, its entire form disappeared completely and naturally.

Without leaving a trace or aura, it was as if it had suddenly vanished from the world.

Lin Yu showed the expected "surprise" at the other party's departure.

"Where's that guy?"

Cheng Shuang remained calm and spoke from her spot.

"They must have already left this world—let's go, it's time for us to go too."

“Since that ‘authority’ was not information that guy saw using the ‘authority of fate’ but information that he saw himself, then… the complete authority exists in the place he is pointing to, and it is not a ‘certain future’.”

"So, if we don't hurry, that authority might change hands or be taken by someone else."

At this point, Cheng Shuang seemed to remember something and sighed with some annoyance.

"Oh dear... I was so careless. I forgot to ask it what kind of authority it was."

"Since it directly witnessed the existence of that authority, it might know exactly what that 'authority' is!"
