Lin Sanjiu actually didn't expect that her plan to take advantage of the situation would be so successful. Perhaps, people think better when their life is on the line. At the very moment when the torrent of air from the vortex gushed toward her, she suddenly gained a sort of "enlightenment". Not only did she properly analyze her situation but she even came up with a solution. It was simple. She would play dead.
Both Ji Shanqing and Geran were intelligent and calculative people. At least, they were far more intelligent than Lin Sanjiu. However, being in the thick of things and buried by their numerous detailed plans and schemes, they overlooked something. Something that Lin Sanjiu discovered.
Who would actually verify a player's death?
