Chapter 113: The Impolite Player

Even so, A Fu still raised a doubt: "However, the Polluted World has destroyed countless planes and worlds—Hell, the Underworld, Blood Source Castle, the Goblin Abyss, Devil Land, the Fallen Heavenly Court, the Underworld... With such a rich foundation, the Polluted World could very well entice players to fall."

She had discovered during this time that players could erupt with astonishing power for the sake of profit.

There is no Knight spirit, no martial arts morality; they hunt the moment a Pollutant shows its head. You cannot find any of the excellent virtues that a hero who saves the world should possess in these players.

In that case, if the Polluted World offered a higher price, the players would sell out the Samsara Game in an instant.

"Isn't that a good thing?"

"The richer the foundation of the Polluted World, the more excited the players will be!"

Fang Yi smiled like a cunning fox seeing a fat chicken, gently waving his hand to open the dazzling array of exchange items in the Game Mall.

The only pair of Rinnegan in the entire Ninja World; provided the prerequisites are met and enough Reward Points are gathered, they can be exchanged.

The Mangekyo Sharingan, capable of turning the tide of a battlefield, for 120,000 Reward Points.

The Nika Fruit originating from the Pirate World, a mysterious fruit capable of sounding the Drums of Liberation; it can be consumed once the conditions are met.

Lost Magic from the Fairy Tail world, Star Spirit Magic... they can easily allow an ordinary person to stand at the pinnacle of the world.

Countless exchanges, dazzling to the eye.

A Fu looked at the exchange items strangely, unable to grasp the situation.

Fang Yi explained with a smile: "After obtaining the authority over the Death Soul Mountain Range, I discovered a very interesting thing. It turns out that Sarina, who controls the Death Soul Mountain Range, had been in contact with pollution forces related to Hell, and all sorts of sacrifices and kowtowing were just to break through her strength shackles."

She was clearly a Pollution Source with Gold Potential, yet she had been shackled at level 20 for countless years, never able to break through.

Was it a lack of talent, or were the resources of the Death Soul Mountain Range insufficient?

Neither.

It was because of the shackling rules of the Polluted World. Although destroying worlds yields massive amounts of origin energy, it is all carved up by the pollution forces at the top of the pyramid; low-level Pollution Sources like Sarina don't even get to drink the soup.

To become stronger, one can only rely on the rewards of high-level Pollution Sources.

By completely reducing or even locking the circulation of items that allow for rank breakthroughs, the stability of the Polluted World's high-level rule can be maintained.

A Fu asked curiously: "Is there something wrong with that?"

"Of course not!"

Fang Yi nodded and said: "Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment require spiritual roots, Blood Qi Martial Dao requires bone structure, Magic and Battle Qi require aptitude; even the Pirate World is the same. Some people's physiques are indestructible no matter how they are beaten, while others drop down a flight of stairs and kick the bucket. The shackling rules of the Polluted World are essentially no different from most worlds—they exist to stabilize the existing world order and avoid internal friction."

"However..."

"The Samsara Game has no shackles. Even if one's Soul Potential is poor, as long as one keeps hunting Pollution Sources, there is a chance to change that Soul Potential and make up for the gap in aptitude!"

"Harvest brings rewards. Every time a Pollutant is hunted, one can watch the Reward Points grow with their own eyes, and see the opportunity to change their fate drawing closer."

"They don't need to kowtow to anyone, nor do they need to beg for anyone's favor. Every step of the way, they firmly grasp their own destiny!"

"After having touched the feeling of holding one's own fate in one's hands, if you then ask the players to defect to the Polluted World and let their fate become an existence that depends on others' whims and is ethereal and void?"

"Who would be willing?"

"The thicker the foundation of the Polluted World, the more Reward Points the players can hunt; they will instead view the Polluted World as a mortal enemy!"

"I said long ago that those willing to sacrifice themselves to save the world are always rare oddities. In every world, you can count the heroes with such excellent virtues on one hand. Most of the lives that truly fight against the Polluted World are greedy for life and afraid of death, have weaknesses, have obsessions, have desires..."

"There is no need for Knight spirit, martial arts morality, or the spirit of self-sacrifice. The Samsara Game only needs them to fight for themselves, to fight for their own obsessions and desires."

Fight for themselves?

Hearing this, A Fu felt a faint glimmer of understanding as to why countless World Consciousnesses said that humans possess too many complex emotions and are fundamentally impossible to control.

Because those failed World Consciousnesses never realized that people willing to fight for the world are extremely rare.

Just as the Master said,

Even if they can unite in the face of a life-and-death crisis, once the Polluted World extends an olive branch, there will always be people willing to defect to pollution.

Fang Yi sneered: "Even if artificial bodies choose the 【Pollution Faction】, they are still bound by the rules of the Samsara Game. That is to say, they get absolutely no Reward Points for helping a Pollution Source kill a player."

"Moreover, hunting Pollutants will still drop Reward Points!"

"Under such rule constraints, can even players who join the 【Pollution Faction】 resist the temptation of Reward Points?"

Like a hungry wolf mixed into a flock of fat sheep, they will absolutely gorge themselves behind the farmer's back.

In the end,

Not only will these players pose no threat to Fang Yi, but they will also continuously and quietly hollow out the Polluted World like termites.

A Fu opened her mouth unconsciously, revealing her small, glistening tongue.

The Polluted World and Pollution Sources have always been treated as monsters by countless World Consciousnesses, spoken of with terror.

For some inexplicable reason, a strange emotion suddenly welled up in the white-haired loli.

Sympathy.

Watching the evil Pollution Source being schemed against by the Master, she actually felt an emotion she shouldn't have. It must be because she is too kind; it couldn't possibly be that the Master is more evil than the Pollution Source, right?

"Despicable player, you took my Knight Medal, and you still want to kill me?"

Kelar widened his scarlet eyes, shedding tears of blood from his rage.

His body was now shattered,

His two broken bat wings were quickly snatched away by the Dawn Player logistics team, not even giving him a chance to self-heal.

His limbs were also broken, and several dazzling Rune chains from the containment squad pinned him firmly to the ground.

"The wings are actually Silver Material?"

"Sarina's heart was also Silver Material back then, but the players' levels were too low when they hunted her, and they couldn't stop Sarina's heart from self-destructing, so it was wasted for nothing."

The logistics team stared greedily at the dismantled pair of wings.

One of a kind.

Once the Blood Wasteland is conquered, even if a Kelar dungeon appears, the Vampire Baron wings will be automatically downgraded to Silver Material, just like Sarina's heart.

"The Pollution Source is a malignant tumor that destroys the world; why talk about being despicable with a Pollution Monster?"

Konan felt no guilt in her heart and struck without mercy.

Her paper wings flapped, and countless Explosive Fire Talismans covered the massive body of the Pollution Source, then erupted in violent explosions.

The scorching, high-temperature explosions spewed out waves of heat.

The Pollution Source was engulfed within, and having lost the defense of its blood Magic wings, it suffered critical damage in an instant, killing it completely.

【Announcement】: Congratulations to the player for successfully hunting 【Vampire Baron Kelar】. Player 【Paper Flower】's individual contribution to hunting the Pollution Source exceeded 20%; reward: 【Resurrection Coin】*1.

The 【Blood-Colored Ancient Castle】 dungeon is now open. Players who reach level 15 can enter the dungeon. After clearing it, they can obtain exclusive equipment, skills, materials, etc., dropped by the Vampire Baron (Kelar).

After 48 hours, the game merchant will lease out the Resource Map within the 【Blood Wasteland】. Once successfully leased, all materials mined within the time limit will belong to the player.

Given that players have already conquered two beginner maps, in one week, the game will undergo a version update to release information regarding new maps.
