Chapter 857: Tensions Rise, Airship Operator
"Now I've locked onto two 'teammates' and one 'enemy'."
After Lin Yu recognized the identities of the three people, he continued to observe the remaining four.
One was a middle-aged woman who looked very wealthy and had a plump figure. She was dressed in some jewelry and her hair seemed to have been exquisitely permed and dyed.
One of them was a young man with headphones hanging around his neck, dressed in a very sporty and casual style, and wearing a pair of trendy brand sneakers on his feet.
A girl with ordinary looks and simple clothes, but with a vigilant and huge white snake wrapped around her body.
There was also a guy wearing a gas mask and full military uniform.
Judging from the appearance of these five people alone, Lin Yu really couldn't tell which organization they belonged to.
Although those who came here in the airship were only "first-level" or the less powerful "second-level", since they were sent here by their respective organizations, it was enough to show that they were all relatively elite and reliable guys in this "level".
Therefore, everyone realized, just like Lin Yu, that the situation inside this closed airship had caused the relationship between the already hostile forces to become very tense in an instant.
What is the difference between this and an aerial mobile octagonal cage?
Everyone was also silently observing each other, confirming the identities of other players.
Even a lively and cheerful guy like Fu Luo fell into deep silence at this moment.
He even made eye contact with Lin Yu several times and recognized this "Old Yao", but he didn't rush to say hello.
And under the intersecting sights...
Not long after, the first person who couldn't hold back was born.
The boy with headphones hanging around his neck stood up from his seat, stepped onto the chair, and opened his arms.
"Hello, brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts, dear friends from all organizations," he began, like an announcer at a cultural performance, his Tianjin accent making it quite comical. "I didn't expect this to be such an awkward opening. Let's not waste time—let me introduce myself. I'm from the 'Predator', you can just call me Nineteen."
"Who is the 'Chlorpromazine' of the 'Psychology Society'? Raise your hand so I can see!"
"If nothing unexpected happens, our friends from Order and Night Watch should be here by now, so, Chlorpromazine, if we don't join forces, it might be a little difficult."
In the corner, "Chlorpromazine", who had been recognized by Lin Yu, raised his hand.
"'Predator', why don't you keep a low profile?"
"Keeping a low profile isn't my style," Nineteen said with a smile. "So, everyone else—where are you from? You'd better follow suit and divide into camps!"
"Well, let me start by saying, 'That's Forboluo over there. I know you.'"
As Nineteen spoke, Fu Luo slowly stood up.
"You actually still know me?"
Looking at Fu Luo's helpless expression, Nineteen laughed.
“Who in the world doesn’t know you?”
Fu Luo nodded and spoke with the air of a master: "You recognized me and still dared to jump out on your own initiative. You are really amazing."
"Yes, I am 'Folporo'. I have come to Kirishima on behalf of 'Order' to inherit the legacy of the first 'Freud'."
Nineteen narrowed his eyes. "Ha, it's just as the rumors say... Your previous delay in leveling up and your deliberate avoidance of fighting other players were all just a facade."
"Ever since your true fighting ability was exposed in the Nightless City in the Wasteland Realm, you haven't acted anymore, Fu Luo."
Fu Luo said proudly: "I didn't expect that you guys can't even access the 'Predator' forum. You're quite well-informed."
Listening to Fu Luo's words, Lin Yu almost couldn't hold back.
I didn’t expect Fu Luo to be so good at playing—it seemed that he not only maintained his reputation as a master in the City That Never Sleeps, but also took the opportunity to expand the influence of these titles to the entire player community.
No wonder Order chose him!
After all, the only people who knew about this matter were myself and senior Shen Bingmiao.
Captain Gao Shan knew a little, but he didn't know much - as long as he didn't report Fu Luo's affairs to "Order", no one would know Fu Luo's true strength now.
After all, with Zhu Rong as an eyewitness, players who had fought against him, and a resounding reputation in the City That Never Sleeps, those "luxurious records" that can only be achieved by "masters" will definitely make people seriously overestimate Fu Luo's strength once they are spread.
But even so, Lin Yu couldn't help but sigh, in a sense, Fu Luo really has some tricks up his sleeve...
After all, these achievements are ultimately "fake". Being able to make a name for himself without being exposed at all is a testament to Fu Luo's real ability.
Although the frontal combat effectiveness is indeed unsatisfactory.
However, his ability to leverage his influence to gain fame is no less than his talent in reasoning.
The reason why he didn’t make use of his strengths in this area before was probably because his reputation as a coward was too loud and he had no “power to borrow” from.
"In a sense, this can also be considered as 'a dragon that changes when the wind and clouds change'..."
Lin Yu sighed in his heart.
At the same time, when he was expressing his feelings, Fu Luo's confidence not only made the originally arrogant "plunderer" Nineteen restrain himself, but also gave the remaining "players" a lot of confidence.
After Fu Luo stood up, the noble lady also stood up.
"I'm from the Players' Mutual Aid Association, 'Katie'—Mister Forbolo. I'll help you."
Then, the girl with the white snake wrapped around her body also raised her hand.
"'Night Watch', 'King Vulture'."
She briefly stated her name.
Lin Yu also took this opportunity to speak: "'Jiang'an Hall', 'Old Yao'."
The three of them also took the opportunity to come to Forbolo's side.
The only people sitting still on the airship were the unidentified person wearing a gas mask and a full set of equipment, and Fen, whose identity was also unknown to everyone except Lin Yu.
but……
Looking at the tense atmosphere between the two sides, which seemed like a fight could break out at any moment, the heavily armed guy wearing a gas mask spoke.
"I say... do you really want to start a fight on this 'airship'?"
"Do you think guests are allowed to use violence in this place?"
Nineteen looked at him and asked, "What will happen if I take action?"
"Airships are Kirishima's only legal means of transportation. All airship operating rights belong to the successor of the 'Lord of Kirishima.' If you wish to provoke that fellow, feel free to do so," the man in the gas mask whispered. "But please stay away from me. I'm afraid your blood will splash on me."
Nineteen listened to the other party's words that were half threat and half advice, frowning as if he was about to lose his temper.
But in the end, he looked at Forboluo.
"It seems...someone isn't suggesting we fight."
"What do you think, Mr. Forbolo?"
