170: Chapter 170: The Reason for Evolution (Reward and Extra)
“Your guess is fairly accurate,” Granny Bai said calmly.
“However, I don’t have the authority to initiate the instance.
I just happened to beco a character in the instance at the birth of Fairy Tale City, you could even say I’m the boss of the instance.”
“That’s why I can’t leave Fairy Tale City.
But indeed, the rules of the instance are set around .”
“Three quests, and finding
counts as clearing the instance.”
“In the past, I wouldn’t trouble players who ca from outside.”
She stopped mid-sentence and shook her head.
“But the world has changed.
Fairy Tale City used to be a place where everyone happily told fairy tales to children; now they smile as they sell Alien products to outsiders, and even the players coming in are getting worse year by year.”
“The ga world is a twisted world; it turns originally kind people into warped freaks.”
“Because of this, you don’t want Fairy Tale City to continue,” Xu Huo said.
“My husband sacrificed himself trying to save the people of Fairy Tale City, he was eventually driven out of the safe zone, torn apart by Aliens.
I survived by jumping into the sea and hiding in the instance,” Granny Bai reminisced emotionlessly.
“Living in the ga, whether as Cannibal Players or not, everyone is a pitiful soul.”
“When I learned that Fairy Tale City would no longer see new players, I actually felt relieved.”
After hearing her words, Tao Chengxin comnted with a sigh, “Compared to other zones, Fairy Tale City has it pretty rough.”
Xu Huo wasn’t interested in Fairy Tale City’s past.
He had persevered until now, wanting to know only two things.
“What was the cause for the mass appearance of Aliens twenty years ago, and why are no new players being born?”
Granny Bai looked up at him and suddenly revealed a strange smile.
“You are a player from Zone 014.”
“Zone 014!” Tao Chengxin said eagerly.
“Is that the new zone where soone obtained the Super Props?”
The others at the table also turned their gaze toward Xu Huo.
“Because of the appearance of Super Props, many high-level players from other zones entered Zone 014.
Before I escaped into the instance, I heard the props had already been snatched away.”
He said, “But Zone 014 and Fairy Tale City have similarities; both suffered great disasters at the beginning of their evolution, with external forces intervening.
Could Zone 014 turn into the next Fairy Tale City?”
“That depends on how the people of Zone 014 respond,” Granny Bai said vaguely.
“As long as a large number of players erge in a short period, Zone 014 will be safe; otherwise, it will end up like Fairy Tale City, becoming a breeding ground in the ga.”
Xu Huo frowned, keenly sensing the connection between the two.
“Are you saying if a ga zone sees a massive death of players at the beginning of evolution and lacks the strength to recover, the new zone will be annexed by other zones to breed Aliens?”
“This…
This is just absurd!” Sun Jirou exclaid, shocked.
“I’ve never heard of such a thing!”
“You haven’t been to high-level random instances,” Granny Bai said.
“If you had, you’d know that in the ga Dinsional Rift, only one-third is in the light.”
Those who had been through a few instances were aware of random instances.
If a player missed an instance once, three months later they would be randomly teleported into an instance by the ga.
These instances were different from the random ones that appeared in reality, mostly being perilous high-level instances where nine out of ten players would not survive.
Everyone present was a Level E Player, none having truly seen a high-level random instance, and they felt oppressed by Granny Bai’s cryptic words.
At that mont, Granny Bai stood up.
“Don’t kill us!” Gao Baii scread.
“We had no intention of getting involved in your grudge with the governnt office.
We’re just here to complete a quest!”
Granny Bai, however, shook her head and walked over to the sofa to take out the Access Card, gently caressing it.
Xu Huo took out the Elimination Access Card that he had requested soone to replicate, placed both cards side by side, and Granny Bai added, “When Fairy Tale City first evolved, the governnt hall and we players were so spirited, making storage warehouses out of the tals found in the ga and using their patterns as the emblem of our Player Organization…
But now, the people from the governnt hall have long perished, and I am the only player left in Fairy Tale City.”
“Once I die, Fairy Tale City will truly vanish.”
The old woman, full of sadness, looked just like an ordinary elderly person who might die tomorrow.
At that mont, Yang Sheng, who had sohow broken free from the control at the dining table, produced an Ice Thorn in his hand, and the temperature in the entire room plumted suddenly.
In the blink of an eye, frost ford on everyone’s eyelashes, and the cold air swept along the floor towards the lost-in-thought Granny Bai.
Xu Huo stepped back to clear a path, and Granny Bai turned around, her right hand curled into her palm, and a huge mouth appeared behind Yang Sheng.
With the lips parting, two rows of saliva-coated Teeth engulfed him along with Sun Jirou and a few others!
The sound of tearing ensued, and Yang Sheng, Wang Qiao, and Gao Baii, who were right next to him, were bitten in half at the waist.
The massive mouth closed, chewed, and then moved back and disappeared, spitting out Sun Jirou and Tang Yuan!
The two who had escaped were dripping with cold sweat.
As if severely traumatized, their limbs trembled and their eyes twitched uncontrollably, and they lay on the table, unable to get up.
Tao Chengxin fell off his stool in fright, and wisely declared his allegiance, “Granny Bai, we are from the sa country!”
Granny Bai patted Xu Huo on the shoulder, signaling him to help the person up, and said with a smile, “Only Cannibal Players can’t withstand interrogation.”
Xu Huo helped Tao Chengxin up, thinking about the three missing Teeth from that mouth, and couldn’t help but ask, “Granny Bai, do you really need Teeth?”
Granny Bai waved her hand, “It doesn’t matter whether I have them or not.
The person looking for
has arrived, you guys should go play sowhere else.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Huo and the others, along with their belongings, were instantly teleported to a strange room.
Outside was no longer a garden, but a pitch-black forest.
After looking around, Tao Chengxin turned to Xu Huo, “She’s not going to starve us to death here, is she?”
Xu Huo didn’t want to talk to an idiot, he took his bag and sat down in a corner.
Although Granny Bai didn’t spell it out just now, based on her words and the events in Fairy Tale City, one could almost confirm that the appearance of the Alien tide and the extinction of players have nothing to do with pollution, and might not even be man-made.
What was really manipulated by humans were the establishnt of the breeding area after the Alien tide and the fact that no one in Fairy Tale City could reproduce.
What caused the extinction of the players?
He stroked his chin; the first batch of Evolvers appeared in Zone 014 without any signs, followed by the intervention of the ga…
Was there the Evolver or the ga first?
Did those companies or individuals playing the role of ga administrators have any role here?
“What are you thinking about?” Tao Chengxin, who had circled the room, ran back to him, tilting her head and staring into his eyes, “Tell
about it, I’m so curious.”
Xu Huo leaned back slightly to put so distance between them, “I’m thinking about the cause of the first batch of Evolvers.”
Tao Chengxin was taken aback, as this touched upon her blind spot.
“What’s the use of thinking about that?
You can’t change anything.”
Sun Jirou, who had been slumped on the ground, stood up then, “Because of the Wormhole.”
“In any ga world, the first people to evolve do so because of the natural evolution caused by the opening of a Wormhole.”
