Kaidan Game Train: Abide Rule or Die! - Chapter 2050: Numerous Faith Stations
These small props didn’t really have much of an effect, because in the next instant after they scattered, they were completely separated to both sides by the spatial barrier. The player who tried to use these props as a shield to move behind Xu Huo was revealed in a second, and they suddenly stopped three meters away.
Four eyes met, and neither side moved.
A moment later, Xu Huo asked, "Anything else?"
The other party took two steps back, smoothly exited the carriage, and then helped close the door.
No one disturbed him that night, and the next morning after the lights came on, Xu Huo finally reached his destination:
C11 Wormhole Point 011 Sector, Many Faith Stations.
The place where Xu Huo got off was in a deserted wilderness, with few trees for shade around. It was clear that there was a rich presence of vines and grass, but now the ground was full of potholes, some areas seemed to have been turned over repeatedly. From the degree of dryness of the earth, it’s evident there had been several large-scale battles recently.
After taking a couple of steps, he felt something hard under his foot. Hmm, there were shell casings underground, not very advanced weapons.
The wilderness seemed empty of people, but as he glanced around, Xu Huo noticed several numbers flashing on both the east and west sides. This was the effect of his characteristics, which could give a score based on others’ attention to him. Judging by the frequency and color of the numbers, these people didn’t take him seriously.
However, before he could pick up his pace, a sharp bird cry suddenly came from the sky. A huge mutated eagle dive-bombed down and headed straight for a hidden spot in the west, then plucked out a mutated wild boar from the chaotic grass.
It was as if the giant bird’s hunting flipped a signal switch, followed by the collapse of the western grassland, revealing a hundred-meter-long black line—not a real black line, but rather an opening disguising the underground structures. In no time, densely packed mutated wild boars charged out from it, howling as they rushed straight ahead.
At the same time, there was a commotion in the west, the ground cracked open again, but emerging weren’t mutated animals. Instead, rows of modified reapers appeared, equipped with two-meter-high sharp gears at the front. The back seats rose to five or six meters, where players sat maneuvering the machines, quickly heading toward the wild boars.
"Bystanders, step aside!" someone from the mechanical side shouted at Xu Huo from afar.
"Just move a bit farther away if nothing else!" the people on the wild boar side also shouted.
The machines didn’t recognize people, but the wild boars did. Xu Huo saw several giant wild boars leading the pack targeting him, so he had to avoid them in the sky. However, just as his prop shoes sent him up, an invisible force barrier stopped him from going higher. In front of him, to the north, a player with mutton chop beards appeared, using a prop to say to him, "Anyone going into the sky during the battle will be seen as a common enemy, move aside!"
What else could Xu Huo do but come down?
He teleported next to the player who shouted, speaking under the watchful gaze of the other party, "I’m just passing by, has there been a war around here?"
"Not your business," said the one with mutton chop beards. "It’s Ye City’s internal affair, if you’re doing an instance then hurry up and leave."
It was obvious that the people here were not very willing to engage with him. Xu Huo moved a little further but didn’t leave, instead stopping to watch this "Ye City’s internal affair."
The mutated wild boars had not only sharp and long teeth, but their skin and fur were also thick and tough. They rushed straight at the mechanical gears, first using their own teeth to confront the gears. If lucky, they could break the gears, potentially flipping the entire mechanical platform. If less fortunate, they ended up gutted, becoming fodder for their kin. In a few seconds of combat, a bloodline formed in the battlefield center, with fragments of flesh and teeth flying in all directions, creating a red mist from a distance.
The red mist continued expanding, and soon a tall pile of corpses formed in the center; the advance of both sides halted.
But the speed of wild boars was incredibly fast, they had a natural advantage in fighting on such uneven and soft terrain. When they couldn’t break through from the front, they immediately changed direction, detouring from both sides to attack. By the time most of the wild boars fell in battle, the gears of the mechanical side were almost depleted.
This was just the first charge, with wild boars and machinery soon discarded. Players from both sides made their official appearance. Having contained the battlefield, they began recklessly using all kinds of props, instruments, and potions.
Some were killed, some lost limbs, and others got poisoned. Various tricks were displayed.
Those on the battlefield did not fear because of the bloodshed and death. Instead, they fought with increasing ferocity, some even shouting in excitement.
Of course, neither side was recklessly fighting to the death. Each had strategist camps stationed directly to the north, exactly where Xu Huo stood. The strategist sides laid in a horizontal line and didn’t attack each other while commanding battles, exhibiting a manner entirely different from the battlefield.
Looking at the strategist sides alone, it seemed more like they were conducting an exercise or friendly spar, but the people dying were genuinely dead. This disjointed atmosphere, as the battle heated up, gradually transformed into a thrilling surge of excitement!
The name of this station was quite interesting.
Xu Huo had researched beforehand; this station and the entire sector were relatively chaotic. However, their chaos differed from that of other weaker sectors. It wasn’t due to players being too weak and causing a collapse of social order from Outer Zone invasions, but rather because too many powerful players emerged during this sector’s integration with the game.
The strength of a sector’s players determined its overall power. C11-011 wasn’t weak per se, but its chaos was due to too many powerful players being present. Nobody submits to anyone, leading to all kinds of self-established governments and player organizations springing up. A major sector wasn’t the only case; even a city within a single station might have several player forces. These people could even engage in battles with equal footing.
Judging by C11-011’s current state, the people in this sector were generally fierce, possessing both strength and a high fighting spirit, and they reveled in it.
This was evident from the reckless combat unfolding before his eyes.
However, although chaotic, it didn’t mean that ordinary people’s lives here were miserable. The overall situation was fundamentally polarized.
If the self-established governments and player organizations holding the cities were relatively wealthy and had a bit of conscience, ordinary people could live passably. Even under a scarcity of land resources, players could still bring back food from other sectors.
But if they encountered those who only coveted territorial disputes, ordinary city dwellers could very well become war victims, as they wouldn’t choose secluded places like this battle but would engage directly within the city.
Moreover, this sector particularly loathed Cannibal Players.
