Chapter 740: Changes in the City That Never Sleeps, Intelligence Exchange, Yin and Zhu Ming
After listening to Fu Luo's obviously exaggerated description and removing the exaggeration and self-boasting elements through his own understanding, Lin Yu roughly understood what happened in the City That Never Sleeps.
Alan Mercury suddenly announced his retirement and announced that Eris Mercury would be the agent for all Mercury family affairs; at the same time, the Sorens family, the Mercury family, and the Qiu family all signed a series of cooperation treaties with the Buyetian family that were extremely beneficial to the Buyetian family; on the other hand, the competition for the heir to the head of the Shenglan family entered a white-hot struggle - not only Sheng Lankui and Sheng Lanlai, but even a new Sheng Lanjie suddenly appeared halfway.
Although Fu Luo didn't understand why these things happened, Lin Yu knew it all.
But he couldn't explain it, so he could only sigh with Gao Shan while eating, "There are really undercurrents in the city that never sleeps. What's going on?"
At a time when the city that never sleeps is undergoing major changes, Fu Luo's status as "Forbolo" has also risen.
Originally, Forboluo had a certain status in the Buyetian family only because he was favored by the master of the house. In the eyes of most people, he was just a dog raised by Buyetian Huo Le to please the master of the house.
But this time after Fu Luo entered, he found that... he seemed to have become an important figure.
The core heirs of the five major families are all vying to show goodwill to him and win him over. Those more marginal branches even revere him as if he were a god.
More importantly... everyone seems to think that they have very strong fighting ability.
In his own words, "If I was just an ordinary eunuch before, now I am Zhang Rang, Zhao Gao and Wei Zhongxian."
Although Lin Yu really wanted to complain why eunuchs, especially those with such a bad reputation, had to be used as examples, since this was Fu Luo himself saying this about himself, Lin Yu couldn't say anything.
In short, after getting a lot of information about the City That Never Sleeps from Fu Luo, Lin Yu silently wrote down the information in case he needed it next time he entered the Wasteland.
After Fu Luo finished bragging, Lin Yu expressed his wonderfulness again and took the opportunity to ask the two of them about another thing they wanted to know.
"Speaking of which, this time I'm going to fight with me on behalf of 'Order', and there's a guy from Southern China named 'A Yin'..."
Lin Yu paused at this point and said, "Everyone says he is the strongest 'Second Order' within 'Order'. I want to know how strong he is. Can he withstand the people of 'Freedom Alliance'?"
Although I will be sparring with Yin soon, but... sparring is sparring after all. Judging from Yin's personality, it is impossible for him to use his full strength during the sparring.
He also had to hold back, and it was unlikely that he would force this renowned "Second Order" expert to use his full strength.
But...A Yin is indeed the opponent that he will deal with under the identity of "Zhu Ming", so it is also important to know more about whether he has any trump cards.
If Lin Yu remembered correctly, the last time he saw the name A Yin was on the murder list of "Fluoxetine".
In other words, this person's rating in the "Psychological Society" is definitely not low - because the way he entered this game, like himself, was sent in by Fluoxetine himself.
Lin Yu trusted the rating standards of the "Psychological Society" very much - especially after joining, he also learned through reading internal documents that "Fluoxetine" had a certain degree of autonomy and could freely choose mission targets.
The target she carefully selected would definitely not be simple.
Sure enough, after hearing Lin Yu's words, Gao Shan slowly put down his chopsticks and the bowl of lotus root and pork ribs soup in his hand, and said seriously.
"Gin... Honestly, although you're very reassuring, May, I really can't imagine how Gin would lose."
Lin Yu was a little surprised: "Could it be that he is the 'only profession' or some very powerful 'profession'?"
"No, his 'profession' is 'scholar'."
Gao Shan said this, and Lin Yu frowned slightly.
"Scholar?"
Although it sounds like a "student", the abilities of a "scholar" are completely unrelated to those of a "student".
The basic ability of the "Scholar" is a combination of "skill type" and "rule type". At the moment of activation, it can instantly analyze the same "item" it perceives and obtain relevant data and detailed information. This ability can be used to analyze [ordinary props].
This is also Lao Zheng's "profession"... Just looking at the basic abilities, it's not too strong.
After advancing to the first level, [Professional Props] will be divided into two types: [Books] and [Glasses].
[Books] can record information about perceived items and retain it permanently. When encountering the same item again, it will automatically prompt you and shorten the cooldown of its own analysis ability.
The [glasses] will greatly enhance one's perception ability, with all-round enhancement of sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch, and this enhancement can be actively activated.
Neither the two [Professional Props] nor the subsequent [Professional Props] actually have a particularly strong effect in improving frontal combat capabilities, so Lin Yu came to this conclusion.
"Did this guy have any adventures in some world?"
"Yes," Gao Shan certainly didn't doubt Lin Yu. Moreover, Ah Yin's deeds and abilities were not too secretive within the organization, so he answered without hesitation, "Ah Yin's roots are in the Prison Mountain Realm—and there, he studied at the Hunyuan Dao Palace and the Demon Subduing Martial Arts School."
Fu Luo added, "And the Hunyuan Taoist Palace and the Demon-Subduing Martial Arts School should actually be considered the leading Taoist sects and the best martial artists in the current Prison Mountain Realm..."
"More importantly, the Taoist techniques and martial arts Ah Yin has learned are perfectly suited to his profession as a scholar and his own personality. The Hunyuan Taoist Palace's 'Xuan Ji Bian' and the Fu Mo Martial Arts School's 'Nineteen Demon Subduing Styles' are both renowned for their ability to strike back after an opponent's weakness and adapt different moves to counter the enemy. They're perfectly suited to him as a scholar," Gao Shan said solemnly. "And more importantly, he once received guidance from a 'Grandmaster' and was able to withstand a full fifteen moves under his command."
"Although Grandmaster certainly held back and didn't use her full strength, she also commented at the time, 'cultivating both martial arts and the way without sacrificing either, a testament to the youth's formidable potential.'"
When Lin Yu heard this, he felt that the situation was very difficult.
This means that this Gin is a very difficult type to target - because he will also adjust his strategy according to the opponent.
It's really a headache.
However, Lin Yu had a happy expression on his face.
"In that case, Yin should be able to win for sure."
Seeing Lin Yu's joy that seemed to come from the heart, Gao Shan and Fu Luo looked at each other.
Then, Gao Shan drank a sip of pork rib soup and spoke.
"May, just think of me as being too nosy... Did you have any unpleasantness with that member of the Psychology Society named Zhu Ming?"
"I heard privately that you seemed to have a very good relationship with her in the past."
Captain Gaoshan said carefully.
Lin Yu instantly looked at Fu Luo: "Did you tell Team Shan?"
Fu Luo immediately raised his hand to prove his innocence: "I only said a little bit. I had run into her once before in the [Instance]... Most of the rest was said by that Korean guy in the group - that guy and Captain Gao Shan have a small group of captains in the Central China region!"
