Congratulations on passing the game "Escape from the Madhouse"!

Your rewards for this game are now being calculated!

You have obtained the basic reward: 7 days of survival time.

Lin Yu opened his eyes and found himself already within the Settlement Space.

He let out a sigh, knowing he had gambled correctly.

Returning to confront the Diviner face-to-face, Lin Yu wasn't betting on the man's kindness.

But rather...

Someone didn't want him dead.

It was precisely because too many people were watching him that Lin Yu dared to operate this way.

Gods, organizations, experts...

This couldn't even be called a gamble.

"This is just... following the script step by step."

Lin Yu sighed inwardly.

He just didn't know yet who had taken on the role he had reserved.

And now, although he had "safely cleared the game," the performance still wasn't over.

He looked around the Settlement Space - only himself and Robin were there.

Indeed, there was no sign of 'Max' - the other had truly remained forever on the Misty Islands.

Lin Yu sighed and spoke to Robin, who also looked somewhat distressed not far away.

"Robin!"

He called out, and Robin lifted her head.

"What's wrong?"

She asked quietly. Lin Yu pursed his lips.

"Nothing... just, thank you."

"And, I'm sorry."

Robin shook her head slightly. "No, it's not your fault... I was the one who dragged you into this."

"What happened to Max isn't your fault either."

She knew what Lin Yu was apologizing for.

This young man who had just joined 'Order' probably thought that his actions against the 'Marauders' had provoked the 'Diviner,' leading to the tragedy.

Although ultimately both of them seemed to have survived.

But Robin knew that people in 'Order' tended to be somewhat twisted and wouldn't easily "forgive" themselves...

Thinking of this, Robin sighed.

"After we get out, I'll find time to talk with you."

She said, then forced a smile.

"Regardless, we're both alive, and that's the most important thing."

"Rather than blaming ourselves, we should focus on getting stronger... perhaps we can seek revenge against that guy together."

Robin tried her best to comfort him.

Looking at her expression, Lin Yu nodded slightly.

To be honest...

This young girl really wasn't suited for cheering people up - she wasn't the particularly positive type herself, and forcing these words out actually added pressure instead.

She even had a clear sense of "forced cheerfulness" and "feigned relaxation" about her.

But regardless...

"The objective has been achieved."

His identity as 'May May' should have officially connected with the 'Night Watchmen' as well... and Robin would likely spread the news about fighting alongside him and narrowly escaping death from the 'Diviner.'

This was exactly what Lin Yu wanted to see.

And so.

Lin Yu routinely checked the upcoming item rewards.

Based on your performance in this game, you have obtained the evaluation "Threading the Needle," granting you an additional reward.

Additional reward: Randomly obtain two "non-exclusive item" rewards.

Item·Asylum Patient Gown, bound.

Item·Repaired Mist Pocket Watch, bound.

Looking at the two non-exclusive items, Lin Yu couldn't help but sigh.

"Classic Threading the Needle..."

But this time, it seemed he only received the Threading the Needle evaluation.

Master of Control and Far-Famed Reputation weren't seen...

But Lin Yu found this reasonable.

He definitely didn't qualify for those other evaluations this time.

But even knowing this was perfectly reasonable, Lin Yu couldn't help but curse while looking at the mark on his wrist.

"Games involving you are always particularly stingy! Does your authority include hidden miserliness or misfortune?"

After cursing, Lin Yu's mood immediately improved considerably.

He then checked the obtained items.

Asylum Patient Gown: When worn, there's a high probability others will consider you "insane," rationalizing most of your behaviors, while significantly enhancing your physical stamina and reducing your pain perception. There's a certain possibility your behavior may exhibit "loss of control" phenomena.

Looking at this item, Lin Yu pondered.

"Hmm... the effects seem pretty good, but there appear to be some side effects."

"I rarely get these double-edged sword type items, better keep it."

Repaired Mist Pocket Watch: Once just an ordinary pocket watch, damaged in an accident. Because its owner couldn't bear to part with it, it was repaired by transforming it into a magical item, gaining the ability to temporarily "reverse" an object, though this ability requires a "sacrifice" to activate.

Note: Offer a soul, receive a return - that's the rule of the Misty Islands.

Looking at this item description, Lin Yu was somewhat surprised.

"Whoa, actually got something good!"

He had actually obtained an item with a Note entry!

Although it was still a non-exclusive item, having a Note entry indicated it had some special qualities.

After reading the item description, Lin Yu realized...

This thing was truly not simple!

Just the immediate uses he could think of included "refresh orb" and "consumable replenishment" applications.

And combining this thing with his Fraudster abilities and the unused Miserly Wealthy One buff, he could probably create even more amazing tricks!

Though it seemed activating this ability required using a "sacrifice"...

The sacrifice was probably a soul?

As for whether the soul was his or someone else's, animal or human, NPC's or player's, Lin Yu would need to study this more carefully.

But regardless of the limitations and costs, this thing could at least serve as a "trump card" type method to elevate his upper limits.

After storing these two items, Lin Yu let out a sigh. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Although he only obtained the Threading the Needle evaluation this time, besides these two items, he had additionally obtained a third item.

This item wasn't even considered a reward.

Wise One's Active Brain: A strange phenomenon resulting from a player's post-mortem mutation - a brain that retains all his consciousness and memories but is considered a new life form.

Checking the strange glowing brain in his item space, Lin Yu sighed.

"In a certain sense, I also have an old master in a ring now..."

"But why was Freud's brain assigned to me?"

First, it was strange enough that it was classified as an item.

Second, it had been staying in the cage Robin drew - shouldn't it belong to Robin instead?

After thinking for a moment, Lin Yu decided to stop pondering.

Regardless, obtaining a founder who understood the Psychological Society inside out was absolutely a major advantage for him!
