At this time, Jack was so weak that he could hardly open his eyes.

"Oh, you can actually accurately predict the disaster day. It's incredible."

"Kill me! I've hurt so many people. I should have died long ago."

Zi Xiangwang hurriedly walked to Li Chuan and whispered in his ear.

"President, if we keep him alive, we'll definitely learn a lot of secrets about the Kongdu Group!"

Li Chuan thought about it and then nodded.

In fact, he planned to let Arnold search Jack's soul to obtain his memory.

But thinking about having to explain it to everyone again after getting his memory, it would be better to let him speak for himself. After all, Arnold has the ability to distinguish between truth and falsehood.

"Zhang Heng, get me some medicine that can keep him alive for a little longer."

……

Late at night, white light flashed outside the window, and rays of scorching white light ruthlessly destroyed everything on the surface of the garbage dump.

In Shelter No. 9, Black Jack, who was extremely weak but his injuries had been alleviated a lot, sat on a sofa, answering the questions of Li Chuan and others with lifeless eyes.

"So, in the beginning, the players and the indigenous people weren't so incompatible?"

Black Jack nodded silently.

"Yes, I heard that in the beginning, there were no rumors about the evil demons here. These were all rumors spread by that guy named Du!"

"Six years ago, when I led my guild into this area, I didn't know much about anything. Until the day I was about to complete the side quest 'Guardian of the End'..."

Jack, also known as Xia Xiaochun, told all the details of the Kongdu Group without reservation after he learned that Shelter No. 9 could isolate all perception and surveillance.

He was not Du's subordinate, he was just a puppet controlled by that guy. In order to get this puppet spot, he killed all the players in the No. 9 garbage dump except himself, including all his subordinates.

This is also why he implicitly reminded Cheng Nannan and some other indigenous people who wanted to go to Fule Garden that Fule Garden was dangerous.

Because for so many years he has always felt guilty and regretful, and he has always wanted to break free from that person's control, but he can't do it.

He was a player who entered this area six years ago. At that time, he was level 37 and was the president of a 100-person player guild. He was also considered a prominent figure in the area.

At that time, Jack quickly led the guild members to annex the ruins of Wancheng and completed the first side quest. However, just as they were about to complete the subsequent quest "Guardian of the End", a mysterious force suddenly appeared.

They ruthlessly killed most of the indigenous people in the ruins of Wancheng, which directly led to the failure of their mission.

Then the dark power of the Kongdu Group was revealed.

The mysterious and powerful Lord Du not only destroyed the side quests of the Wancheng ruins, but also destroyed all the side quests of the ruins of the other seven cities.

Not only that, he also issued an extremely cruel task outside the system.

That is to let the players in the same area kill each other and devour each other's plant spirits. Only the one with the highest level of plant spirit can survive and join the Kongdu Group to work for him.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Nannan couldn't help but ask angrily.

"You guys must have at least a few thousand players at the same time, right? Why listen to him? Why not just get together and take down this Kongdu Group?"

Xia Xiaochun shook his head weakly.

“At the time, the top teams in the regional rankings all did what you said, but they all ended up failing.”

"There are nine garbage dumps and eight city ruins here. Each area lurks an 'Ultimate Bio-Mutant' and a player who uses a plant spirit to control the 'Ultimate Mutant'. We didn't have such a powerful plant spirit back then, let alone the Ultimate Bio-Mutant. Even the bio-warriors from the scavenger squads were rarely able to handle them."

I felt my heart stop beating for a moment.

"Seventeen such terrifying creatures?"

Xia Xiaochun's voice was calm.

"Yes, there was one in every area! We were even more desperate than you were."

"You must have wondered why there are so few veteran players here?"

"Because that ferryman does this every three years when new players arrive, so in the entire Lower Domain, there are only seventeen veteran players left, serving as his spies and minions."

Li Chuan nodded silently.

This explains why there are so few veteran players and why there are almost no veteran player guilds on the guild rankings.

Cheng Nannan pursed her lips. Although she knew that the ferryman was cruel, she was still shocked by his bloodlust.

"The Lower Realm is so vast, isn't there a player who has hidden and escaped his clutches?"

Xia Xiaochun smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"After thirty days in this area, you will lose the qualification to trigger the main quest. After sixty days, the mall function will be closed. After ninety days..."

"In the end, apart from some basic communication and leaderboard functions, we have lost all other player privileges."

"Players hiding need food and various survival supplies. If they are discovered, they will die."

Li Chuan frowned. In all these years, no player had ever triggered the main quest and left here? Not even one?

Xia Xiaochun nodded weakly.

"To trigger the main quest, all six side quests are essential. He always sabotages the 'Guardian of the End' quest, so over the years, no one has been able to escape his clutches."

……

Most of the doubts in his mind were resolved, and Li Chuan finally asked.

"Where is that 'Du'? Isn't he the number one on the regional leaderboard - Du Ji?!"

Xia Xiaochun nodded weakly.

"It should be him, but I don't know where he is? I can only receive his instructions through private messages from friends."

"But there's someone who might know. That priest in the ruins of De City was already Du's minion long before I did. And I heard that her relationship with Du is very special."

……

Two hours later, the continuous white light outside the window finally stopped.

After dealing with Jack's body, Zi Xiangwang walked in from outside and took off his protective suit casually.

"President, if what this guy said is true, then in ten days all the city ruins will fall into his hands again, and tragedy will repeat itself."

Li Chuan nodded coldly.

"Hmm, so that bastard has no intention of reconciling at all. He's just dragging things out until we fail our mission and can't receive the main quest, and then he'll force us to participate in his Gu-raising game."
