As the Rakshasa, a legendary existence in the Black Marsh world who had their entire race imprisoned for "blaspheming against the gods," although Lin Yu didn't know them that well, based on his speculation...

There was a good chance these red-skinned monsters would actually get excited upon hearing their opponent was a master.

Of course, this was just a relatively reasonable "excuse" Lin Yu had found.

His core motivation from the very beginning had been targeting the person 『Twenty』!

Therefore, even if Twenty wasn't the strongest in this 【dungeon】, Lin Yu would have found other reasons to force a fight with him.

As for why he let Fern go...

It wasn't because Lin Yu was sentimental or valued loyalty.

Lin Yu had even seriously considered whether to kill this guy off as well—after all, Moss knew far too much information about him.

Although Lin Yu hadn't revealed any extra information beyond what 『Order』 and 『Twenty』 had deduced, even regarding the identity information he had proactively reported to 『Order』, having one less person know was always better.

But after struggling with the decision, Lin Yu ultimately decided to let it go.

After all, Moss was indeed a good partner.

And if he truly displayed too much strength, pushed too hard, and caused her to defect to Twenty's side...

Even though she was only 『Second Tier』, her abilities were troublesome enough.

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

Lin Yu clearly knew that if he wanted to kill Twenty, there was a time limit.

If he really got held up by Fern going all out, causing him to miss even the opportunity that might have allowed him to kill Twenty...

Then Lin Yu would probably regret it for the rest of his life.

So, he finally chose to believe Moss one more time.

And since he made this choice, it also meant...

Lin Yu was now prepared to kill Twenty at any cost!

After stomping down and having Twenty narrowly dodge it, Lin Yu wasn't surprised.

If a single stomp could injure Twenty, then he wouldn't be a 『Third Tier』 powerhouse on the rankings!

Therefore, while the opponent was off-balance from dodging and hadn't regained his footing yet...

Lin Yu clenched his fist, the upper left and right hands gripping a long-handled heavy axe, raising it high above his head.

This heavy axe was naturally transformed by the 【Counterfeit】—this was about the largest thing Lin Yu had ever transformed using the 【Counterfeit】.

He raised it high, pausing in mid-air, deliberately letting Twenty see it clearly.

No, not just Twenty...

Lin Yu could feel more 『belief』 pouring in—the commotion here was too great, and his figure was so conspicuous at this moment, naturally drawing many spectators to watch the battle.

So, let them see it even clearer.

It was just a pity that his current Rakshasa identity wasn't suitable for providing commentary on this giant axe; otherwise, Lin Yu would definitely have added some "settings" and "skills" to the axe in his hand, using this massive 『belief』 to transform it into 『truth』!

But even without any extra fancy functions, the mere appearance and materialization of this giant axe were enough!

Aiming at Twenty on the ground, he let out a furious roar.

"Crush!"

The giant axe fell heavily.

"Boom!"

More like a heavy hammer than a sharp blade, the axe smashed into the ground, as if a giant from ancient legends was shaking mountains and splitting the earth with immense force.

Twenty once again narrowly avoided this strike!

Solidified black nightmare substance pulled at his body, allowing him to perform a nearly anti-ergonomic movement, instantly darting sideways several meters, just barely dodging the axe.

But this time, even though he dodged the giant axe, he couldn't escape the subsequent shockwave!

The earth trembled as if an Earth Dragon was Turning Over, the originally sturdy trees swaying like cowardly beings shivering like sieves in fear of the Rakshasa's divine power and the giant axe.

After all, the giant axe was aimed at Twenty, and the impact point was right near him!

Twenty, who had just landed and hadn't steadied himself, was sent tumbling again, hit by the flying earth, stones, and falling trees, unable to get up immediately!

Lin Yu's heavy axe was now stuck in the ground, and he couldn't lift it again immediately.

However...

Lin Yu now had four hands!

He took a fierce step forward. While his two upper hands were lifting the axe, the two lower hands were already clenching into fists and smashing toward Twenty's location.

These two fists were like meteoric iron falling from the sky; once they hit, they would surely flatten Twenty into a pulp!

And this time, Twenty had nowhere to dodge—his surroundings were filled with fallen trees and upturned earth and stones; it was practically a dead end.

Twenty didn't try to escape this time either.

Pitch-black nightmare substance solidified again, transforming into a large, spread-out net in front of him, propped up by the trees and rubble, blocking the path of Lin Yu's fists.

This block actually worked!

Although it looked as fragile and swaying as a spider's web, when Lin Yu's fists struck it, the force was immediately dispersed and dissipated significantly!

Lin Yu felt like he had hit an extremely elastic substance; the momentum and force of his meteor-like, ferocious fists were directly dissipated and neutralized for the most part.

"Crash!"

Although another large swath of the trees and wood and stones it was attached to collapsed, Lin Yu's meteor-like fierce fists did indeed slowly come to a stop.

But...

These were just fists, not actual meteors!

After feeling the fist momentum had been exhausted, Lin Yu immediately opened his fists, his fingers directly starting to tear at the black net-like substance!

Despite the nightmare substance's exceptional toughness, it couldn't withstand Lin Yu's rapid change of tactics.

Moreover, its "foundation" was just a pile of broken trees and rubble.

Lin Yu easily tore open a huge gap, then grabbed several of the main "support points"—rocks and trees—with one hand and threw them aside.

This defense, which had successfully blocked Lin Yu for over ten seconds, was once again wide open!

Lin Yu clenched his fists again, aiming at Twenty, who had just gotten up inside.

"Come on, bastard!"

By now, Lin Yu had even lifted the heavy axe that had just smashed into the ground.

Fists and axe simultaneously let out terrifying howls, sealing off Twenty's escape routes.

At this moment, even the nightmare substance around Twenty was much thinner than before.

But he still didn't try to escape; instead, a flash of madness and ferocity crossed his face.

"Very well, Rakshasa..."

"Then, as you wish, I'll give you a great battle!"

As he spoke, a brilliant golden light erupted from his clenched right hand, leaking through his fingers.

Then, on Twenty's body, golden patterns lit up, dancing and climbing toward the sky.

Finally, those patterns flowed and condensed in mid-air into a dazzling, radiant, shimmering golden eye!

It looked down upon the earth, golden threads hanging down connected to Twenty's body, like puppet strings.

He raised his eyes and spoke softly.

"Rakshasa, this is my 【Exclusive Item】... since I obtained it, today is the fourth time I'm using it!"

"It's called 【The Method of Deduction Through the All-Seeing Eye】."

"You will be the fourth existence to die by it."
