Just as the Mountain Demon Leader fell to the ground and Yue Zhenqiao was about to step forward to fight it to the death, Lin Yu, who had fallen earlier, got up and stood between Yue Zhenqiao and the Mountain Demon Leader.

"Don't move, Dart Head Yue, I have a way!"

As he spoke, Lin Yu reached out his hand towards the Mountain Demon Leader.

Then... a soft white light flew out from Lin Yu's wrist, carrying a holy aura as it slowly drifted towards the Mountain Demon Leader.

The white light circled around its body, sank into its skin, and then gradually made the Mountain Demon Leader Sanyang appear calm and peaceful again.

Lin Yu looked at Yue Zhenqiao and spoke apologetically, "Sorry, I was careless and let this guy break free from my control."

As Lin Yu spoke, Yue Zhenqiao remained vigilant, watching Sanyang.

However, since Lin Yu had already spoken, Yue Zhenqiao nodded, giving him this face. "It's fine, Female Warrior, your methods are exquisite and miraculous... I imagine it must be an extremely profound and complex technique. It's perfectly normal for such a technique to have mishaps."

Lin Yu nodded and looked towards the overturned carriage. "It's just that this accident has indeed revealed the contents of this 'blind escort.'"

Yue Zhenqiao waved his hand. "Not to that extent yet. The door is only slightly ajar. If we knock it back into place temporarily from the other side, we won't have to see what's inside..."

*Crack!*

Before Yue Zhenqiao could finish his sentence, as if to prove his words wouldn't work, the metal carriage door that had been torn half open suddenly let out a loud *bang*!

Then, it completely snapped off and fell heavily to the ground.

"What?!"

Yue Zhenqiao exclaimed in shock.

"Well done."

Lin Yu watched this scene and praised Hannah in his heart.

The door completely breaking off was, of course, Hannah's doing. Although the little octopus didn't have the immense strength to accomplish this, she could take advantage of the Mountain Demon Leader pouncing on the carriage to quietly hide in the shadow of that massive body.

She could even carry a [BBE-300] self-destruct robot with her to hide.

All of this was, of course, part of Lin Yu's plan!

From the moment the Mountain Demon Leader went berserk, Lin Yu had been acting. The Mountain Demon Leader "Sanyang" showed absolutely no signs of losing control.

It was Lin Yu who sprayed an entire can of [Rage Spray] on it, making Sanyang appear violently out of control.

But in reality, even though Sanyang's emotions uncontrollably began to show anger, under the control of the [Collar], it remained absolutely loyal to Lin Yu.

How could a [Class Item] produced by the 『Death Game』 be so easily "broken free from" once it took effect?

This was a power akin to a rule!

Therefore, all of Sanyang's actions were completely manipulated by Lin Yu.

Lin Yu's earlier injury, spitting blood, and subsequent calming of emotions were also "disguises." Those were merely "visual effects" he created by manipulating ink from the [Prayer Water Necklace].

Wanting to make the currently physically robust Lin Yu instantly injured and spit blood? Even if Sanyang had truly gone berserk, it might not have been able to do it.

Even if Lin Yu fought this big guy head-on with bare hands and no sneak attacks, he could absolutely dominate with his strength and physical prowess.

And the reason Lin Yu temporarily added this special scene was very simple.

Everything was to figure out what the "living thing" inside the carriage was!

And Li Nian, standing to the side, was also very savvy.

"Oh my, such a big commotion. We mustn't let the escort goods inside get damaged!"

As she spoke, she walked forward.

Before Yue Zhenqiao could stop her, Li Nian had already nimbly jumped onto the edge of the overturned carriage, looking down at the contents inside from above.

And only after Li Nian had already looked for several seconds did Yue Zhenqiao react.

"Female Warrior, what you're doing..."

"Breaks the rules, I know," Li Nian waved her hand, "but didn't your assistant say earlier that 'accidents' are to be handled differently!"

"Now is exactly an accident situation. Even if I don't look now, whoever helps right the carriage later, reattaches or ties back this half-door, will see it anyway."

"This wasn't intentional on our part. Everyone present can testify. Do all of you here think I'm deliberately breaking the rules? The demon going berserk isn't something humans can control!"

"Or, we could simply dig a hole and bury this carriage right here, cancel this job, everyone goes back and tells the employer the goods were destroyed, or we just turn bandits outright... then naturally we won't need to see what's inside either. Is that the 'not breaking the rules' that Dart Head Yue wants?"

Li Nian's words subtly pulled all the surrounding dart masters to her side.

Those dart masters also began to persuade Yue Zhenqiao.

"Yeah, Boss Yue, don't be so rigid!"

"I think what the Female Warrior says makes sense."

"If it weren't for the two Female Warriors earlier, our goods would probably have been robbed outright..."

"For the employer, getting the delivery through is probably the most important thing!"

Yue Zhenqiao was finally swayed by the "will of the majority" and let out a long sigh.

"Alright... Since things have already come to this, then I'll trouble the Female Warrior to help with the carriage door..."

Before Yue Zhenqiao could finish his sentence, he was interrupted again by Li Nian.

"Sister Zhu, come up here. The thing inside is indeed strange."

Lin Yu also ignored Yue Zhenqiao, instead waving his hand and whistling sharply.

"Lift me over."

Upon hearing this, Sanyang immediately obediently used its broad palm to lift Lin Yu's body, carefully moving to raise Lin Yu next to the overturned carriage.

Seeing this scene, Yue Zhenqiao was momentarily speechless.

A bold thought suddenly surfaced in his mind.

"Could it be... that the demon's 'loss of control' just now was an act?"

"Did these two Female Warriors plan from the start to see what's inside the escort carriage, putting on this coordinated performance?"

But as soon as this thought appeared, Yue Zhenqiao dismissed it.

How could that be possible!

Just being able to "tame" a Mountain Demon Leader was incredible enough. If they could also suddenly make the Mountain Demon Leader go berserk on command, with that level of skill...

If they wanted to know the carriage's contents, couldn't they just force it open and kill our whole group?

Why go through the trouble of putting on a show?

Even if it really was an act... it was performed to keep our group alive, so there was even less reason to expose it.

As an experienced veteran, Yue Zhenqiao's thoughts flashed quickly, and he soon understood the stakes involved.

Rules were important, but... since the rules were already broken, there was no need to risk his life for them.

Therefore, he immediately began playing dumb, turning a blind eye to the two Female Warriors' actions, and even proactively inquired.

"You two... what exactly is strange about it?"

Standing at the edge of the carriage, Lin Yu heard Yue Zhenqiao's question and narrowed his eyes.

"Looking at it alone, there's actually nothing strange, but... A Nian, if you confirm this thing is alive, then it really is quite strange."

Lin Yu said softly, looking at the "living thing" inside the carriage.

It was a... "human left arm" tightly bound and secured with chains.
