Chapter 12614
A quarter of an hour later.
After hearing Zhang Baiyu's confession, Lin Yi felt a strange sensation in his heart.
The extraterrestrial visitor mentioned by the strategist, who shared the same origin as the racetrack god, would indeed be instinctively associated with the divine realm by anyone else.
Only he knew very well.
The true origin of this racetrack deity is actually the mortal world.
After all, this is a fellow townsman from the secular world.
Other judgments may be wrong, but this one is absolutely certain to be wrong.
Otherwise, the previous bias from various parties in the race track would be impossible to explain.
Moreover, Lin Yi's intuition in this area has never been wrong.
Not once.
According to this theory, the strategist may have indeed seen the future, but unfortunately his interpretation was wrong.
However, Lin Yi naturally couldn't bring himself to talk about this.
"Now that you've made your choice, I'll leave the rest of things to you, your father."
Lin Yi solemnly instructed.
Zhang Baiyu nodded calmly: "Understood."
Anyone facing the strategist would feel immense pressure, including his eldest son.
Beyond the pressure, Lin Yi saw for the first time in Zhang Baiyu an irrepressible, eager excitement.
"You are also a very filial son."
Lin Yi couldn't help but chuckle.
Over the next few days, Lin Yi truly felt the perversion of this father and son strategists.
When masters clash, it's always as swift as a gazelle hanging its horns.
Ordinary people wouldn't even be able to understand what moves their opponent is making, let alone counter them.
It may seem like a trivial matter, something you don't think has anything to do with you, but in the end, it can turn into a terrifying and irresistible attack.
Looking back on the incident, even Lin Yi was terrified.
Fortunately, with Zhang Baiyu in charge, he was at least able to keep up with the other party on the surface and didn't suffer any major losses.
Otherwise, if he were on his own, he wouldn't be able to hold the line at all, and he certainly wouldn't be as relaxed as he is now.
Two words: mentally exhausted.
After just one review, Lin Yi became convinced that he absolutely could not play mind games with this kind of person.
Once you're in a matchup, the best solution is to just go for it.
Even if you suffer some losses that way, it's still better than being played to death by someone else.
Those who play tactics are all dirty.
Three days later.
Another piece of news suddenly ignited the Tianjun County.
"Have you heard? Master Xu is going to forge an immortal divine weapon for our Tianjun!"
What is Immortal Divine Gear?
"You don't even know that? Immortal Divine Armor is a divine armor that surpasses even high-level divine armor. Not to mention in our Heavenly County, it's extremely rare even in the Divine Realm!"
"Pretending to know what you don't!"
"This is how I explain it: no matter how high-level divine equipment is, as long as you have enough materials, you can forge as many pieces as you want. Immortal divine equipment is different; there is a fixed number of them."
"What do you mean? You have the materials but can't build it?"
"Of course! Let me tell you, only the world's top-tier divine equipment synthesizers are qualified to forge immortal divine equipment!"
"With all this talk, what's so special about the Immortal Divine Gear?"
"Master Xu himself said that if this immortal divine armor is successfully forged, it will benefit all the people of Tianjun, and its effect will be no less than that of the racetrack hall!"
At this point, public opinion was immediately ignited.
Most people find it hard to understand the effects of the Immortal God Gear, but once the racetrack lobby is brought out, they immediately grasp the concept.
This is a tremendous opportunity bestowed upon everyone in Tianjun!
If they miss this opportunity, everyone in Tianjun, from top to bottom, will regret it for the rest of their lives.
After the uproar in Tianjun, another piece of news was quickly released.
"Master Xu said that he came back this time to give back to his hometown. He has already prepared the main materials for forging the immortal divine equipment. Now he is only missing a few auxiliary materials."
What auxiliary materials?
"Are you stupid? The materials used to forge divine equipment are naturally divine equipment as well. However, at the level of immortal divine equipment, even if it's just scraps, it definitely can't be low-level divine equipment. It has to be at least mid-level divine equipment!"
"Intermediate divine equipment? Does our Tianjun even have intermediate divine equipment?"
"Have you all forgotten? The Emperor of the End has intermediate-level divine equipment, and more than one!"
"Yes, yes! Then let him bring out the intermediate-level divine equipment!"
"Why should they give it up?"
"Heh, why shouldn't he take it out? His intermediate-level divine equipment was all obtained from the racetrack. The racetrack is an opportunity shared by our Tianjun. Why should he monopolize it all?"
"If there were no other explanation, we would let it go and not hold it against him. But now that Master Xu has finally come back to forge the immortal divine equipment for us, he still wants to keep it all for himself. That's not fair, is it?"
"Exactly! There's a limit to greed. We must organize ourselves and put pressure on him to make him hand over all the intermediate-level divine equipment!"
Through a series of coordinated efforts, public opinion throughout Tianjun County turned against Lin Yi.
Similar sentiments have even emerged within the Termination Committee itself.
Lin Yi looked at the news summary with great interest: "The scale is quite large, indeed impressive."
Zhang Baiyu looked ashamed: "It was my mistake."
Although there were no direct clues pointing to the strategist, only he could see clearly that the strategist was behind all of this.
Otherwise, the incident wouldn't have escalated so rapidly.
Lin Yi didn't take it to heart: "Don't overthink it. It was definitely Xu Shaoweng who came up with this idea. Your father is just cooperating at most."
Zhang Baiyu wholeheartedly agreed.
While the opponent's offensive was indeed fierce, their core intention was still to acquire those few mid-level divine equipment pieces, which was definitely not the strategist's original intention.
Given his father's brilliant strategist methods, he wouldn't be so low-level.
However, low-end does not mean simple.
The situation has suddenly developed to this point, and public opinion throughout Tianjun has been almost entirely swept up by it. Even if someone occasionally voices a rational opinion, it will be quickly drowned out.
Lu Bukui suggested, "Why don't we gather our voices together and launch a counterattack?"
Previous training exercises have proven that the media outlets trained by the Termination Committee still possess considerable combat effectiveness.
Even though they are coming on strong right now, it doesn't mean they are powerless to fight back.
Even if it can't directly reverse the overall situation, it can at least relieve some of the pressure on our side.
Lin Yi smiled and said, "No need. They can't handle a losing situation yet. Let's let the bullets fly for a while longer."
Lü Bukui was taken aback.
The first part is understandable; after all, those media outlets were only recently established and their combat effectiveness was still limited.
But let the bullets fly a little longer?
Zhang Baiyu pondered for a moment: "Does the president intend to lure the enemy deep into our territory?"
Lin Yi smiled but remained silent.
While the End Committee remained silent, public opinion in Tian County grew even more aggressive, and in the blink of an eye, Lin Yi had become the public enemy of Tian County.
"He stole the opportunity that belonged to everyone, and now that he needs to give back, he deliberately plays dead. How can there be such a shameless person in the world!"
"This concerns the interests of everyone. All citizens of Tianjun should stand up now!"
"We absolutely cannot let a single thief get away with it!" (End of Chapter)
