"It's him?" Qin Weiyang had an impression of this person.

Xie Yu was quite active in the combat readiness area, giving people the image of a nice guy.

He reminded everyone to hurry up and get their equipment and choose their landing points in time.

It's just...

"Why is it him?" Qin Weiyang asked.

"First of all, players who can use their talents to glimpse the future can definitely be one step ahead and be well-prepared, so the game score and ranking won't be bad."

"Secondly, his performance in the combat readiness area was quite strange."

"You remember, right? When someone suggested teaming up, he was the most active responder."

Qin Weiyang thought carefully and found it was indeed the case.

But she still felt the reason Su Yang speculated was too far-fetched.

Being able to foresee the future isn't invincible, he could also have poor point acquisition and a low ranking.

And encouraging teaming up doesn't explain anything.

"Just because of these points?" Lin Yang also felt it was far-fetched.

Su Yang looked at Qin Weiyang's confused expression and said, "Remember when I first exposed my identity?"

"Remember, he took the initiative to shake your hand," Qin Weiyang nodded.

Then she suddenly realized something, "Physical contact is a condition for activating the talent?"

"That's not right, how do you explain the dreams from the previous few times?" Lin Yang shook his head.

"The activation of the 'Dream' talent is definitely not a simple handshake," Su Yang said.

Just as Lin Yang said before, the treatment for the first place and the hundredth place is the same, everyone has a 3S rating, and the points are the same.

There is no so-called distinction between high and low.

Xie Yu, however, showed an expression of worship when he learned of Su Yang's ranking, which was clearly very abrupt.

"I know!"

Lin Yang suddenly slapped his forehead and said excitedly, "It's 'Deviation'! He used a trick on you at that time!"

"Smart!" Su Yang cast an appreciative look.

Lin Yang finally guessed one link, his eyes full of pride.

"Since the prerequisite for 'Dream' doesn't require physical contact, or even eye contact, then 'Deviation' might not necessarily be him, right?" Qin Weiyang voiced the doubt in her heart.

"After you left, another interesting thing happened," Su Yang smiled slightly.

"What?"

"After Xie Yu saw you teleport away, he specifically asked if you were my girlfriend," Su Yang said.

Qin Weiyang was displeased upon hearing this, "Why did he ask that?"

"He was surprised that you and I didn't team up," Su Yang looked at Lin Yang, who was still immersed in the praise, smiled, and continued, "If you treat him as a warm-hearted player, it's not surprising."

"Openly and secretly advocating teaming up, don't you think he's overly enthusiastic?"

"Combined with our encounters, he must be the person with the greatest suspicion!"

Qin Weiyang identified the enemy's identity, and a rich killing intent immediately flowed from her eyes.

The surrounding temperature dropped by a few degrees.

"The mastermind has been found, how should we respond next?" Lin Yang asked.

Unknowingly, Su Yang had become the backbone of the three-person team.

Lin Yang had even become accustomed to asking for Su Yang's opinion before taking action.

"Same as before, don't go to the prison, just stay in the dormitory building," Su Yang said.

"I'm afraid that won't work," Lin Yang shook his head.

"How so?"

"This isn't a safe zone, we have to leave after the circle shrinks," Lin Yang said.

"How do you know?" Su Yang narrowed his eyes.

A flash of hesitation crossed Lin Yang's eyes, and after hesitating for a moment, he whispered, "I copied 'that man's' talent."

"Copy?" Su Yang seemed to have discovered a new continent, his heart moved.

"I'm only telling you because I treat you as friends, don't tell anyone else." Lin Yang hurriedly said.

"Rest assured, after this game ends, the three of us might go our separate ways, maybe we won't even have a chance to meet again," Su Yang said.

"At that time you said he could 'foresee danger', so I copied his talent while searching his bag," Lin Yang explained.

It was at that time...

No wonder Lin Yang used the word 'now' to describe his talent when introducing it before.

It turned out his talent was flexible and changeable.

This was fresh news.

"Unlimited copying?" Su Yang's eyes showed a hint of curiosity.

"Can only be activated on dead people, after copying a new talent, the old talent will be overwritten, and after the game ends, the copied talent will disappear."

"So that's how it is..."

In a sense, 'Copy' and 'Deception' had the same effect.

Everything obtained would disappear after the game ended.

"We are now a community of destiny, we should have nothing to hide," Su Yang looked at Qin Weiyang, implying something.

"My talent is 'Light Feather', which can make the body become light," Qin Weiyang said straight out.

For her, there was nothing to hide about her talent.

Besides, both of them had seen it, even if she didn't say it, they could infer the general idea.

"No wonder you can fly," Lin Yang nodded in realization, then asked, "What about Su Yang?"

"'Illusion', as the name implies, can create illusions for players."

"Then why didn't you use it before?" Lin Yang asked suspiciously.

Facing the questioning, Su Yang said slowly, "The prerequisites are too harsh, it's very difficult to cast."

"Lying to people, you'll have no asshole," Lin Yang intended to use this to verify the truth.

Su Yang glanced at him and said slowly, "What kind of oath is that?"

"If I'm lying, I'll die tomorrow."

Hearing these words, Lin Yang finally felt relieved.

He wasn't worried about Qin Weiyang lying.

It was just that Su Yang had too many tricks up his sleeve, and he couldn't be sure.

"You should have a plan by now, right?" Qin Weiyang asked.

"From the current safe zone range, it can be seen that L City in the east, Y City in the north, the dormitory building in the west, and M City in the south are the temporary stay areas for most players," Su Yang checked the map on his watch.

"Lin Yang also said that the dormitory building won't be a safe zone in the future, plus Xie Yu's talent can be confirmed—"

"The final safe zone will be in the prison."

"Just with the power of the three of us, we can't kill all the players in the last hundred, and we don't have that time and energy."

"Then there's only one way left..."

Su Yang climbed up from the sofa and said slowly, "Gather all power and fight him to the death."

"Just what I wanted!" Qin Weiyang became excited upon hearing this, her eyes shining.

"Wait, that's the plan?" Lin Yang was stunned.

He thought it was some incredible strategy, but it turned out to be a big pile of nothing.

"You can propose a better plan if you have one," Su Yang said.

"I..." Lin Yang was speechless.

What kind of method could he have, if he had one, he wouldn't be here listening to Su Yang analyze for half a day.

"The later the time, the more players from all walks of life will move toward the prison, the number of players in the top hundred and those not in the top hundred is unequal, and the combat power is always disparate."

"If we can't unite, we will inevitably be defeated one by one, and then we will definitely fall into the ending in the dream."

"Where to find them?" Lin Yang asked in trouble.

"You can find them by following the circle," Su Yang looked at the time and continued, "Let's move when the poison circle approaches the dormitory building."

It's impossible for the top hundred players not to know the disparity in strength between the two sides.

They are also very anxious and must find companions.

Otherwise, relying solely on individual strength, it is extremely difficult to survive the encirclement.

Perhaps they could hide when the game first started, after all, the map was big enough.

But as the safe zone gets smaller and smaller, the living space will also be weakened.

In fact, Su Yang gathering power had a deeper purpose.

That is to find players affected by 'Illusion'!

This is his trump card, and also the only possibility for a comeback.

"Listen to you, let's do as you say," Lin Yang nodded solemnly.

"Lin Yang and I will keep watch tonight, you get some good rest," Su Yang said, looking at Qin Weiyang.

Qin Weiyang wasn't pretentious and nodded in agreement.

She had consumed too much today and needed to get her energy back.

Just as she was walking toward the sofa, Lin Yang sniffed and frowned, "Why is there a sour smell, Su Yang, did you take off your shoes?"

"No, aren't my shoes on right here?"

"Strange..." Lin Yang looked left and right, searching for the source of the sour smell.

Qin Weiyang paused, turned around, and walked toward the bathroom.

"Where are you going?" Lin Yang asked.

"Taking a bath!" Qin Weiyang gritted her teeth.

Lin Yang and Su Yang looked at each other and smiled. ===== CHAPTER 100 =====
