Chapter 1988: Chapter 1988: Years of Effort Wasted
There are many external players in the Eastern District. Whether they are currently in an instance or have already failed to clear it, after learning about the "White Blood," they started to act. Frankly, Yuquan City is not a suitable place for long-term living. Not to ntion other aspects, just Agor’s control over the city makes it unbearable for the typically unruly players. Many players don’t really have a sense of right and wrong, but charging for air is a bit ridiculous. Although they might not have to pay this money, staying here ans they are effectively paying an invisible tax for their food, clothing, housing, and transportation — why should a small tech company in a small subdivision be more outrageous than the players? Moreover, it sounds like they plan to use "White Blood" to control the players.
Of course, this is just one reason. More importantly, if the "White Blood" is real, they can use it to exchange for a better living area. With such a miraculous potion, even if the Ga Governnt doesn’t want it, many people in other zones would. That way, clearing instances or dealing with high-risk randomness might not be a problem.
It’s not just the external players who are tempted. The players inside Yuquan City have similar thoughts, especially those who have undergone surgery.
Most players who underwent surgery don’t actually know that Agor implanted chips in their brains. They only vaguely know that sothing was done to their brains, but since the effects are good, nobody says much. Even if there are side effects, it’s understandable. Besides, doesn’t the company arrange regular psychotherapy and potion injections for them?
So of them are from Yuquan City, so were brought by Agor, and others ca from various other cities over ti. Undergoing surgery ans they are tied to Agor Corporation, and with news of controlling the number of newborns spreading, they have beco disposable to the company at any mont. Agor doesn’t even want Yuquan City people to reproduce, which naturally makes them a one-ti deal.
If Zheng Yuci and the potion’s formula could be in their hands, it would be a different story.
Since the news leaked out, it couldn’t just circulate within Yuquan City. Soon, other cities in the division learned about it from the Collection of Information Terminal. Before nightfall, players from other cities arrived one after another. So broke through the city’s outer blockade using props, while more waited outside the city without taking action.
The Resistance Army wasn’t idle either. Taking advantage of the external players causing chaos in the city, they focused on damaging quite a few laboratories and companies of Agor. Their purpose was to strike at Agor, targeting any aspect they could.
Therefore, by the next day, the Eastern District no longer saw the excitent of the previous days. Although the city’s various lights and electronic screens were on, there were no figures on the streets, making the entire city appear exceptionally empty.
Many buildings in the urban area were also damaged these days. Everywhere on the streets, blocking barriers and busy robots could be seen, while Eastern District players had hidden away, and nobody guarded the conspicuous outpost locations.
"I thought they weren’t afraid of death," Qiaoqiao couldn’t help but mock, "but after being killed, they turned into cowards."
"What can they do?" Lao Zhou touched his neck, "Those external players are like lunatics, attacking people’s brains at sight. Who wouldn’t be scared?"
So genuinely wanted to verify whether there were chips in the brains of Eastern District Advanced Players, while others simply wanted to kill or take this opportunity to profit. After all, in the original environnt of the Eastern District, there weren’t many opportunities for looting during chaos.
"But now that this matter is public, Agor can’t possibly not react, right?" Qiaoqiao turned towards Xu Huo, who was sitting by the window, wiping the Black Blade.
After parting ways the night before, Qiaoqiao, Lao Zhou, and Lin Cao went elsewhere. When things ended, Lin Cao was nowhere to be found. Rather than looking for companions, Qiaoqiao and Lao Zhou thought it better to contact Xu Huo again, given that they had experienced life-and-death battles together, getting sowhat familiar with each other’s fighting style and strength.
The three of them agreed on a place to et in the city center.
Now, many external players were publicly appearing. Many building tops were occupied by players, while the three of them found an Entertainnt Mansion, choosing a floor on the top level to rest.
From their position, they could see the Municipal Governnt building and Agor Headquarters building, though due to the distance, only the rooftops were visible on both sides.
Xu Huo used a towel to wrap the blade, slowly wiping from the handle to the tip. He heard the conversation between Qiaoqiao and Lao Zhou. Agor was undoubtedly making two preparations; if they weren’t so reliant on Zheng Yuci, they would already be preparing for a counterattack, at least scaring away the first batch of sa-zone players coming to observe; otherwise, there would be endless troubles. If they overly trusted Zheng Yuci and made their original advanced players undergo the chip surgery, they would have to move away disgraced.
Because after this incident, regardless of Agor’s win or loss, Zheng Yuci could not stay in Yuquan City any longer.
"They will probably use a batch of Eastern District players to test the waters," Xu Huo said. "Everyone is eyeing Zheng Yuci now, watching if Agor will really protect him."
"Is Zheng Yuci really that formidable?" Due to the nurous places where incidents occurred, Agor’s control over the Collection of Information Terminal wasn’t as tight. So information about Zheng Yuci started appearing online, such as the players responsible for his protection and the more than a dozen attacks experienced from yesterday to now.
Initially, Qiaoqiao accepted a task to assassinate the Psychotherapist, targeting Zheng Yuci. It seed like a doable task a few days ago, but now knowing Zheng Yuci is a Rank-A Player, he dismissed the idea.
"Yuquan City planted so many mutant plants that can detect spiritual power, not only to monitor the ntal state of Eastern District players," Xu Huo propped up the blade, watching the sharp edge slowly. "It’s because soone understands the power of spiritual strength, so everywhere is fortified against it."
After being influenced by the chips, the ntal state of Eastern District players is bound to deteriorate sooner or later, whether due to poison or potion. They are susceptible to interference, and that’s why so choose to implant devices on both temples.
Using spiritual interference devices can affect them, but the best way is still using Psychic Power. This is the Eastern District players’ publicly known weakness.
Realizing this, many mutant plants appeared in the Eastern District.
"He is a Super Evolutionary with ntal Powers," Xu Huo continued, "Unfortunately, his years of effort will be wasted."
