Capítulo 2249: Chapter 2249: At Wit’s End
Actually, Xu Huo wasn’t the first to obtain law enforcent rights through the municipal governnt. There is a string of greyed-out photos on the internal network, but only his jurisdiction expanded to eight regions, and he got the title of United Administrator.
Of course, this wasn’t given for free. The municipal governnt staff emailed him, asking for another ard robot, or they’d revoke his authority.
Indeed, there’s no free lunch in the world. This was the first ti Xu Huo went through an instance and ended up costing millions; if he didn’t have so savings, he really couldn’t afford it.
Stripping all the weapons off the ard robot, he handed it over to the municipal governnt through Beneath the Dinsion.
“Want to chat?” A Temporary Enforcent Officer sent a contact request.
Xu Huo contacted the other party through the communicator.
“Can I borrow your law enforcent docunt?” The person on the other side was straightforward, getting to the point right away, “Just call
Old Cai.”
“The law enforcent docunt is not a problem,” Xu Huo said. “How did you get this identity?”
“Two instrunts,” Old Cai said with so pain, “Those two instrunts aren’t cheap, but the municipal governnt only wants instrunts, not props… You must have bled quite a bit too.”
“I’ve nearly emptied my savings,” Xu Huo asked about the situation at the municipal governnt.
“I’m just outside the city’s central barrier. I’ve secretly taken recordings inside more than once, but whether it’s instrunts or props, once inside, they basically lose contact,” Old Cai said. “It’s unclear what’s going on in there. Players who went in haven’t co out either.”
“I guess most of the Player Organization that originally established the municipal governnt are probably dead. I heard a few are in District 33 and 34, but they’re too far away to contact.”
“That Temporary Enforcent Officer called Ding Dong Bleeding is from District 32, just nearby. I asked her, but she didn’t reveal much useful information.”
“Have you been in the One-Third Ga?” Xu Huo asked again.
“No,” Old Cai paused before saying, “But I’ve completed the required number of kills for the pass-through task and ensured that every person I killed had committed a cri.”
The conclusion is, he still hasn’t cleared the ga.
“Initially, I didn’t think this thod would work, but now it seems there’s no better idea. You’ve been at it for two days, is there any progress on the task?”
“I don’t know,” Xu Huo said. “So of the people I killed were indeed confird wanted criminals, but the instance didn’t give any hints.”
“Are you sure this thod can clear the ga?” Old Cai asked after a mont of silence.
“I’m not sure, as you said, there’s no better way,” Xu Huo said. “Otherwise, I’d have to try the One-Third Ga. If my mory gets wiped when I co out, wouldn’t all my previous efforts be in vain?”
“Makes sense,” Old Cai paused again and asked about the trigger chanism for the ga, “Is killing soone who isn’t a wanted criminal really one of the ways to trigger the ga?”
“You know this too? We’re quite far apart.”
“Isn’t there another Temporary Enforcent Officer?” Old Cai said. “Lou Zigui isn’t far from you and can see your billboard. His unlocked area is relatively large, and he collaborates with many players; you might get so information from him.”
Returning to the main topic, “I’m not sure about the fourth trigger thod, but you’ve killed so many people without clearing the ga, and the instance doesn’t recognize it. But it hasn’t triggered the ga either… There are only two possibilities.”
Either he hasn’t killed a wrongly accused person, or killing the wrong person isn’t a trigger thod at all.
But this leads to a problem. If it’s the forr, why doesn’t the instance let him clear it? Isn’t this contradictory?
“Are you sure everyone you killed was a wanted criminal?” Xu Huo asked.
Old Cai was silent for a second, then suddenly “tsk’ed,” “You stumped . I don’t have a wanted list for reference.”
“But we can think positively. Perhaps I really didn’t kill the wrong person, which is why the ga hasn’t been triggered. The reason I haven’t cleared it is that I haven’t gone through an official municipal governnt wanted procedure.”
“In that case, temporarily setting up the municipal governnt should be the correct way to clear it.”
“I hope you’re right,” Xu Huo said. “If you clear it first, please let
know, and there will be a reward.”
“Haha!” Old Cai laughed loudly, “Maybe you’ll clear it first.”
“I have more people on my side, so I need to think about allocation,” Xu Huo also laughed. After hanging up, he sent over the security regulations and then contacted Lou Zigui and “Ding Dong Bleeding” using the contact information provided.
Lou Zigui’s reply was quick; he was more concerned about the Water Rubik’s Cube.
Xu Huo also told him in detail about the rumors he heard about the Water Rubik’s Cube. After listening, the other party let out a long sigh, “Impossible to defend against.”
Lou Zigui had quite a few players banded together. Among them, not just once had a completely unfamiliar person co to them, bringing so records prepared in advance explaining the identity of their previous companions. Unfortunately, neither side rembered each other, and among the two or three who entered the ga, no one had killed anyone in Bu Liu City and tried to minimize their range of activities.
So Lou Zigui and his group have already verified several ga-triggering rules.
Beyond the four known triggers, there are other thods, but it’s difficult for Lou Zigui and the others to narrow down anymore because, if they try, it would almost an that anyone entering Bu Liu City would eventually have to enter the One-Third Ga, just that those breaking the rules enter first, and those not breaking them, later.
“Apart from losing past and present mories, was there any other change?” Xu Huo asked in detail.
“There were injured people, but whether injured or not, everyone who ca out alive lost their mory. Only one person was strange; most who entered the ga started by losing mories of the past. This person rembered the past but forgot the ga content.” Lou Zigui said, “I don’t know if he won the ga.”
Win or lose, not rembering is equally futile.
The more Xu Huo listened, the more ominous it felt. Even if the One-Third Ga can’t activate the personal panel, the player’s body can serve as a mory carrier. The people Lou Zigui ntioned who lost their mory had injuries, but they were ordinary injuries, not marks with special aning.
Players can get injured, indicating they can move freely and even kill each other, yet no marks are left, suggesting it’s likely impossible and mandatory not to leave them.
To achieve this level, Xu Huo couldn’t imagine anything but bent ti.
An instance involving ti force is an ultra-high difficulty one. Dr. Wu deliberately curated environnts like Midsumr Night’s River of Stars and Pumpkin City, not to make things difficult for players. This instance…
“Mr. Xu, so of us have been stranded here for a long ti already; we can’t leave the instance past its ti limit. We’ve also tried leaving Bu Liu City, but with no success. We’ve exhausted all possible thods. I have a premonition that if we continue like this, we’ll end up dead in the One-Third Ga.” Lou Zigui said earnestly, “I can provide all the help I can. If you make any progress, I hope you’ll sell us the clues.”
