Chapter 2140: Chapter 2140: Disconnected Player

Zhao Zizhen glanced back, "Oh, isn’t that Dou Shengnan?"

XU Huo closed the news expressionlessly, "You know this person?"

"The Guile Sound Knights, a very famous player organization," Zhao Zizhen said, "All the mbers are wanted criminals."

"Other wanted criminals, except for Super Players, mostly keep a low profile, afraid of being hunted by cash-strapped Advanced Players soday. The Guile Sound Knights are different. They are very high-profile wherever they go, as if they don’t know the aning of ’fear’. Actually, half of them are Rank-A, while the rest are Rank-B, yet they are imnsely arrogant."

Seeing Xu Huo looking unfriendly, she placed a stool beside him and sat down, "What, do you have a grudge against them?"

Xu Huo didn’t speak, and she didn’t mind, continuing, "Even if you have a grudge, I’d advise you to delay your revenge. Dou Shengnan is also a Rank-A Player, and she is a Super Evolver. Her mastery of Psychic Power is said to be formidable, supposedly unbeatable by anyone at the sa level. As for other Super Players with Spirit Evolution, that’s unknown."

Zhao Zizhen knew he was also a Super Evolutionary with ntal Powers, and with a bit of goodwill said, "She’s reportedly not here alone. It’s said that their leader Jin Feixue has so backing, which is why they can navigate the ga unimpeded, committing countless cris yet no one can truly harm them."

Xu Huo remained calm, "I was fortunate to see them once in another district. At that ti, watching them load ordinary people onto the spacecraft, I almost thought they were human traffickers rather than robbers featured on the ga news channel."

"Almost the sa." Zhao Zizhen shrugged, "Otherwise, why would they say Jin Feixue has backing? Who do you think buys the things they rob? People too, many Advanced Zones treat new zones as consumables. It’s just that saying it out loud sounds bad and easily arouses public outrage, so hiring third parties to do the dirty work is much more convenient."

"As for the Tian Family’s situation, I think it’s largely true. The appearance of mbers from the Guile Sound Knights here doesn’t rule out the possibility of their collusion."

Even though the Tian Family also has capable Psychic Evolvers, the appearance of Dou Shengnan in Zone 008 suggests that the Guile Sound Knights are involved too.

"Jin Feixue’s na is linked with the Guile Sound Knights on bounty platforms and Beneath the Dinsion, but there’s no evidence tying him to other player forces in different zones." Xu Huo glanced towards the transport company; it was nearing evening, the sky ablaze with a crimson sunset, remarkably beautiful.

"I heard about it by chance when I went to a certain zone previously." Zhao Zizhen said, "It’s hard to say what’s true or false, after all, even Jin Feixue’s na might not be real."

She brightened up, "Ha ha! A building owned by Hengxing was blown up!"

A Hengxing building not far from them had its top blown off by outer zone players who had broken into the Tian Family Laboratory, the defense instrunts’ barriers hadn’t even had ti to deploy.

"When there are many Space-Ti Items and instrunts, interference is inevitable." Xu Huo noticed that the Municipal Governnt’s Law Enforcent Team was deliberately steering players towards certain battlefields. He opened the map of the Chongming Bird Administrative Region, "There’s a square not far ahead."

"These people definitely can’t be persuaded to leave; finding an open area can prevent harming innocents." Zhao Zizhen said, "I’ve been to that square before; it should be equipped with high-level disruptors and sealing barriers, I wonder if they’ll work."

If it didn’t work, the Law Enforcent Team wouldn’t be cautiously herding people in that direction... Just as this thought crossed Xu Huo’s mind, a translucent white barrier lit up around the square, a do-like shield covering the entire square. As the barrier lit up, the players who had already entered the square suddenly froze, then with undisguised astonishnt, seemingly rebooting their props.

This scene startled the other players who hadn’t yet rushed into the square, one closer to the scene turned and ran, warning others, "Run! Trapped and unable to use props..."

But it seed already too late, as a second barrier activated at the boundary one kiloter outside the square, enveloping the second batch of players who had just arrived nearby. Besides outer zone players, local players from the Chongming Bird Administrative Region were also caught, and once inside, they were treated alike.

Long-range attack props and close-range defense props beca unusable, and weapons in hand instantly reverted to cold weapons. So were fortunate enough to have pulled out explosive props right before the barriers activated. Without knowing the barrier’s weak point, they could only attack arbitrarily, but the barrier’s toughness far exceeded expectations, gently quivering before absorbing the impact entirely.

The local players clearly knew about these sealing barriers, so when their props failed, they didn’t panic but instead seized the opportunity to eliminate nearby players.

The sealing barrier wasn’t completely transparent; after two layers, it beca difficult to see from afar. People outside couldn’t know what was happening inside, but upon seeing the Law Enforcent Team enter the sealing zone before the second barrier rose, it was undoubtedly a multi-against-few hunt.

At that mont, outer zone players watching openly or secretly beca uniformly serious. No one inford them that Zone 008’s instrunts were capable of disabling all props before they entered.

"Is it a super prop specifically designed to suppress props?" Soone couldn’t help but ask, "Or has Zone 008 already developed such instrunts?"

But others wondered: "Is it the props failing, or are characteristics and props both failing?"

If characteristics and props are both failing, it ans they are facing the worst-case scenario for players — being disconnected from the ga.

Once disconnected, props that require extraction from the personal interface and specific operations to activate are nearly useless. Characteristics might fare slightly better, but they often also require certain "activation thods" like language or special actions, which rely on the ga to achieve. Once disconnected, players are essentially rendered blank, relying solely on physical combat abilities and protective clothing worn with inherent defensive capabilities.

"How is this different from herding sheep into a pen for slaughter?" So outer zone players quickly took action; they could watch the instance players battle local players, but threatening themselves was absolutely unacceptable!

Many players began looking for weak points in the barrier, as well as the instrunts or props activating the barrier, but to no avail; the local Law Enforcent Team was ample, and player organizations were involved, making it very difficult not only to search but even to approach the barrier.

"Rank-A Space-Ti Items are ineffective." Zhao Zizhen also moved nearer to the barrier, turning to Xu Huo beside her, "Since interference isn’t possible, could Zone 008 really have found a way to sever players’ ties with the ga?"

Xu Huo expanded his Spiritual World, rapidly searching within a radius of nearly four thousand ters, "That’s not strange, isn’t the mythical ga developnt company hidden in zones unreachable by tickets?"

His gaze then fixed on a spot, "Follow ."
