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

Chapter 1456 The Mad Elves, Lin Yu's Impersonation Plan

Six hours is not a short time, but it passed quickly during the conversation with Medalo.

During the six-hour conversation, Medalo, who already regarded Lin Yu as the "hope" of the Elven race, naturally spoke freely and without reservation.

Although this is only his first encounter with the Elven race, Lin Yu can already be considered an expert on them.

Lin Yu had a thorough understanding of the Elf race's culture, history, origins, development, diet, composition, and entertainment.

Lin Yu also gained a relatively good understanding of the history of the Night Valley during that period.

Lin Yu is now very confident that if he goes out for a while, changes his face to have pointed ears, and reappears, and lies to this great sage that he is also an elf, the sage might not be able to tell the difference between his real and fake self.

However, Lin Yu doesn't need to do that.

Moreover, after gaining a thorough understanding of the various histories, cultures, and ethnic characteristics of the elves, Lin Yu began to abandon his idea of ​​impersonating an elf and operating as an elf in the Night Valley Realm for a long time.

Because this race... is just too troublesome.

First of all, the Elven race is an extremely xenophobic race, and its members are all super racists—it is not surprising at all that this race would go so far as to research magic to erase the intelligence of other races in an attempt to turn all other intelligent races into slaves.

Long before the elves dominated the Night Valley and were simply a mainstream race, they rarely interacted with other races in the Night Valley at that time.

All elves live around the sacred lands of the elven race, only venturing into places known as the "Sacred Forest" and the "Holy Spring," isolated and living in seclusion from the world.

Therefore, the elves were considered an absolutely neutral race by other races at that time.

Moreover, many other races also believe that the elves are kind.

After all... although the elves do not actively contact the outside world, there are always people of other races who break in and glimpse the lives of the elves.

The elves of Night Valley do indeed lead an elegant life—they live in nature, use superb magic to construct buildings that blend seamlessly with nature, and are passionate about various types of artistic creation and the study of magic.

Each elf has an extremely long lifespan and is naturally endowed with a powerful physique and innate magical talent.

Furthermore, they are vegetarians—the elves only eat the fruits picked from various trees and berries in the sacred forest, and never need to raise or hunt animals to obtain meat.

But these are actually just illusions of other races.

In the culture of the elves, only pure-blooded elves can be considered superior beings who enjoy "rights." Only elves are good and beautiful, representing the highest masterpiece of the world's will, and are born to be the masters of the Night Valley.

Other races... are nothing but inferior defective products, garbage that needs to be cleaned up and purified, or hazards that need to be eliminated.

Almost every elf genuinely believes this and is instilled with this cultural understanding from a young age.

They isolated themselves from the world because they hated other races.

The reason why only elves and various plants live in the Holy Forest is not because the place is naturally sacred, but because the elves live here and have transformed it into a place where no other animal can survive.

The idea that they are kind because they only eat "vegetarian food" is just wishful thinking on the part of other races... The fact that the elves only eat the fruits they gather is purely a matter of their own personal taste.

Moreover, if anyone truly knew how the elven "holy land" was built, they would certainly not think that the elves' behavior of only eating fruit was so kind.

A fruit imbued with intense magic... a plant that can produce such a fruit is certainly not an ordinary plant.

Many of these trees are self-aware, and some are even intelligent beings.

However... they were imprisoned in the sacred land by the elves, and each newborn individual had its intelligence and will erased by the elves at birth, becoming just an ordinary tree that appeared to contain abundant magic.

For the Elven race... erasing the intelligence of individuals of other races is almost a "tradition".

Therefore, the reason why the Elven race has retreated to the holy land and lived in seclusion is simply because "the time has not yet come".

Each generation of the Elven race's "Council of Sages" and "Council of Elders" holds regular collective meetings to analyze whether the current Elven race has the strength to wage a full-scale war against other races in Nightvale, and whether it can develop spells that can significantly erase the intelligence and will of other races and permanently solidify this influence.

This is the age-old way of survival for the Elven race.

and so……

Although the entire Elven race is currently imprisoned in this "eternal cage," if Lin Yu were to say...

It was a bit too late to catch them.

The "God of Fairness and Judgment" even waited until these elves truly possessed this power and had developed and tested this spell before capturing and imprisoning these madmen for reformation, just before the elves were ready to officially implement their plan.

Of course, Medalo is telling Lin Yu all this now because the "God of Fairness and Judgment" has had a very good effect in reforming them by keeping them here, and he has been completely transformed.

After all, all the sins committed by the Elven race and these extreme ideologies are essentially rooted in their inherent arrogance as a naturally powerful and superior race.

In other words... their sins can be best described by the original sin of "pride".

Therefore, when they realized that they were not the most powerful individuals in the world, nor the most superior race, the beliefs and faith that supported their subsequent "distorted" ideas and twisted behaviors naturally collapsed.

In this world there exist powerful beings like "gods" who are above all life and can easily destroy an entire race.

At the same time, after arriving in this "eternal cage," they went out one by one to other areas, where they also witnessed other powerful individuals and races from the Ten Realms.

After all, those who can be imprisoned in this "eternal cage" are not simple characters.

With just a little inquiry, these pointy-eared individuals would know that... even among the "guilty" races, their crimes are considered relatively minor.

After all, they were all detained in the outer ring.

Even without comparing it to other worlds outside of Night Valley, just comparing Night Valley itself, there are many "dangerous elements of Night Valley" who were captured by the "God of Fairness and Judgment" long ago during their seclusion in the Holy Land.

It turns out that those who had risen and fallen so rapidly, though they hadn't paid much attention to them, each possessed strength no less than, or even greater than, that of the elves, and had far more insane ideas.

The original Elven race believed that the so-called "madmen" or "tyrants" of other races failed to conquer the world or even pose a threat to the Elven race because they were essentially mediocre people who had been exaggerated. Even if they had some ability, it was only "powerful" in the eyes of those ordinary races and was definitely an exaggeration.

But now it seems...

They were all imprisoned before they even got started, just like their race!

These facts, laid bare before the Elven race, were enough to utterly shatter the race's fundamental logic.

Therefore, the numbness of the Elven race, besides being caused by immense suffering, is also partly due to the complete shattering and destruction of the race's will and heritage.

All the elves are slowly accepting "reality"—and because the individual elves are imprisoned separately and take turns being let out to roam, the only way to communicate is through the messages left behind by the previous elf's roaming group in this square using traces of weakened magic. After the old "consensus" is destroyed, it is difficult for a new "consensus" to be formed again.

While great sages like Medalo, powerful figures within the Elven race, are still pondering these issues, most ordinary elves have likely become muddled and confused.

This is why Lin Yu felt that playing an elf was not a good idea.

Because if I were to play an elf who has escaped from the "eternal cage," I would probably be a dull, wooden character who only wants to live a peaceful life.

But if I were to play the role of one of the survivors from back then... then I would have to be a crazy and arrogant being, hostile to all other races, cruel and cold-hearted.

This is inconsistent with the route Lin Yu planned to take in the Night Valley Realm, and it is also unsuitable for the current binary opposition between the Abyss and the Human Realm.

"Unless I intend to wage war against both humans and dark races simultaneously in the Night Valley, there is no need to impersonate the identity of an 'elf'."

"But if I were to act as an 'elf,' I would be giving up my current advantage of having a voice on both sides."

Lin Yu thought about it.

Of course, although he doesn't need to impersonate an elf with an umbrella or act as an elf for a long time, Lin Yu feels that he should still impersonate an elf at least once for a short period of time so that everyone knows that such a person exists.

After all, if the fact that he was impersonating an elf could "come true", he would still receive a lot of blessings.

The elves' magic power, magical talent, and physical attributes have all been further enhanced.

Lin Yu has now learned a lot about the various types of spells and their usage and cultivation methods from the "Great Sage" Medalo.

Although it is very useful, if you start practicing from scratch as a human, the efficiency will probably not be very high, and it will be difficult to make it an effective means of helping yourself in a short period of time.

The situations Lin Yu encounters now are often "high-level" ones, and ordinary methods are no longer of much help.

But if, like in the Black Swamp World, one were to use the abilities of a 'Trickster' to directly spread lies in this world, and then use a large amount of 'belief' to create the illusion that one has mastered these abilities...

That will definitely give you some useful skills!
