Chapter 12506

As he spoke, he relentlessly summoned more experts to besiege Lin Yi.

They all met instantly.

The scene was exactly the same as before.

Lin Yi clapped his hands: "Stop talking about fair competition. What you hate isn't cheating, what you hate is why you're not the one cheating."

"..."

Guo Xianggu choked on the spot.

He couldn't even refute that statement.

If he were truly a person who pursued fairness, he wouldn't have been so tirelessly striving to stand out and go to great lengths to catch the eye of those powerful families.

"It's a rare opportunity to meet like this. Do you have any last words?"

Lin Yi asked casually.

Guo Xianggu subconsciously took two steps back, forcibly sticking out his neck and saying, "Even if you use tricks to get me out of the game, you will never win in the end. We're both losers."

Lin Yi raised an eyebrow: "That's it?"

Seeing that Lin Yi was about to make a move, Guo Xianggu hurriedly said, "If I'm not mistaken, since you've chosen Liu Shan, as the ruler of a country, your goal in this scenario must be to succeed in the Northern Expedition. Anyone can fail, but you, as the ruler, cannot fail."

"Heh, all your efforts have been in vain, yet you can't even grasp the basics of the overall situation. You chose a role that's destined to lose, occupying the last position. How laughable!"

"I admit that Zhuge Liang was a capable tool, but if you expect him to change your fate, you're dreaming."

"Besides, he's run out of food at the front!"

Lin Yi calmly corrected, "The front line has not run out of food. It's just that you thought it had run out of food. Also, thanks to you, Sima Yi and Guo Huai on the other side also thought it had run out of food, and then they made a rash advance, only to be dealt a terrible blow by our Lord Wu."

Guo Xianggu: "..."

After a pause, Lin Yi added, "Thanks to you as well, we borrowed a lot of grain from the powerful families, and now the front lines have plenty of supplies."

"you!"

Guo Xianggu was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot.

He suddenly realized something: he had thought that the other party's scheming target was him. Although he had been caught off guard and was unwilling to accept it, from his perspective, it was at most a miscalculation.

However, upon reviewing the events now, Guo Xianggu was horrified to discover that Lin Yi's real scheme was not against him at all!

If you had to put it bluntly, he was at most just one part of the scheme, a tool used to mislead the enemy and, incidentally, to offend powerful families and force them to lend him grain.

How could this make him feel so embarrassed?
Lin Yi frowned: "You're already spitting blood? Are you that narrow-minded?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Guo Xianggu was eliminated from the competition.

Lin Yi was genuinely stunned for a moment.

Having participated in several special track rounds, this was the first time he had ever seen such a way of being eliminated, which made him so angry that he was eliminated.

To be honest, Guo Xianggu is quite a talent.

With Guo Xianggu out of the picture, chaos was inevitable in the Shu Han court. After all, Li Yan, whom he portrayed, was one of only two trusted ministers entrusted with the care of the young emperor.

But with Lin Yi's abilities and his personal presence, none of these are problems.

He now has only one thing to do: stabilize the entire rear of Shu Han and do everything he can to supply food and provisions to Zhuge Liang at the front.

In addition, we need to build up reinforcements and bring in fresh blood.

In short, it all boils down to one sentence.

If Heaven doesn't help the Prime Minister, I will!

The fourth Northern Expedition in Chinese history ended in failure due to the machinations of Li Yan, which is regarded by many as a lifelong regret of Zhuge Liang and a source of resentment for many.

What would have happened if Li Yan hadn't interfered?
There are no "what ifs" in reality.

But this special track situation offers a rare opportunity, and Lin Yi is prepared to make up for this "what if".

Zhuge Liang certainly did not disappoint.

Without the worries of logistics and supplies, Zhuge Liang's dominance on the front lines became even more terrifying. His swift and decisive military style was so powerful that it seemed to belong to a different era.

A great victory in Lucheng!

Sima Yi was defeated and fled, and Zhang He was killed in battle!

The Shu Han army took Longyou in one fell swoop, and the next step was to advance into the entire Guanzhong region!
China was shaken.

At this moment, Eastern Wu suddenly turned against Shu Han, sending a massive army of 100,000 to strike directly in the rear.

Left with no other choice, Lin Yi could only deploy the newly formed reserve army to the rear to contain the Eastern Wu army.

On the surface, the crisis was stabilized, but this made the already meager supplies even more scarce.

Although Lin Yi could continue to take advantage of wealthy people, doing so would ultimately be extremely risky.

Moreover, Shu Han only had so much resources; even a wealthy family would eventually run out of resources.

As for the northern front.

Although Zhuge Liang still possessed an epoch-making spirit and won many battles, causing panic throughout the Cao Wei group and forcing them to relocate the capital repeatedly, the fundamental difference in their strengths was ultimately too great.

They fought and won repeatedly, but also retreated repeatedly.

This has almost become a curse, a vicious cycle from which one can never escape.

In the end, Zhuge Liang fell to his death at Wuzhang Plain, fulfilling his destiny.

The game is over.

Lin Yi sighed softly, "In the end, it is the will of Heaven that cannot be defied."

From the moment he chose Liu Shan, he had already foreseen this outcome. In fact, if it were purely for victory and the reward of divine equipment, the most pragmatic choice would have been Sima Yi.

But as a Chinese, I suddenly had an opportunity to help Zhuge Liang.

Who could resist such a temptation?
Although fate is hard to defy, Lin Yi has no regrets.

You can earn more powerful gear if you lose it, but if you miss this opportunity, it might be a lifelong regret.

However, after leaving the special track bureau and returning to the Terminator headquarters, Lin Yi suddenly froze.

Ten fragments of divine essence suddenly appeared in his hand, along with a piece of divine equipment.

Something resembling a Bagua formation.

As the information flowed into his mind, Lin Yi's eyes lit up: "The Marquis Wu's Star Chart?"

Strictly speaking, this is a divine item that doesn't resemble a divine item.

It's not like a divine item because it doesn't have any of the effects that a divine item should have.

There are no attack or defense bonuses, no other active skills that help in combat, and no passive bonuses like the chance to dodge.

In short, there are absolutely no bonuses related to combat.

But in Lin Yi's eyes, this thing was far more valuable than any of the divine equipment he possessed, including the Butterfly Knife and the Heart Mirror.

"The Wuhou Star Chart can be used to identify and synthesize divine equipment."

A simple sentence, yet its value is immeasurable.

Lin Yi immediately took out the only three divine pieces of equipment he had and appraised them one by one.

The final diagnosis left him with mixed feelings.

Butterfly Knife, a beginner-level god-tier item.

Heart Mirror, basic divine equipment.

Wind-Fixing Pearl, a mid-level divine item.

In his previous assessment, although the Wind-Stabilizing Pearl could achieve single-target control, the control time was only three seconds, and the entire process required throwing the Wind-Stabilizing Pearl around the target, and then finding a way to retrieve it afterwards.

While it's not that it can't be used, its effectiveness in actual combat may not be that great.

Especially if you encounter a true master, it is very likely to become useless.
