Chapter 494 Humanity

Although Mo Yu and Mo Ye both have the surname Mo, they are actually not related at all. Before becoming Wang Qiqing's disciples, they not only did not know each other but were not even from the same province.

In addition to gender, the two also have an extremely exaggerated difference in luck.

If Mo Yu was the eldest senior brother in the laboratory, who was recognized by Wang Qiqing for his strength and was chosen to work in the project team, then Mo Ye was just lucky. He won a spot in the official website lottery with a terribly low probability and was successfully brought into the project team as a newly-appointed disciple.

Therefore, the community that Mo Yu joined in Guixu Realm was [I Love Farming], while Mo Ye, as a private account, joined the community [Noble Spirit Forever] without knowing the real situation.

But when she finished revising her paper late at night and logged into the game, she found that her points for the limited-time battlefield mission had skyrocketed by thousands of points!

If we follow the previous exchange ratio of points, contribution points and prestige points, we can already exchange a large equipment from the sect merchant!

She was stunned and typed in the team channel: "No, I just haven't logged in for most of the day, what have you been doing!?"

The team channel, which was originally quite quiet due to the lack of people in the middle of the night, suddenly became lively.

"Young man, are you awake? The operation was successful. Get ready to embrace your wonderful life as a soft girl!"

"Hashidou Madai, Ye Zi seems to be a soft girl!"

"【Mo Ye Ran Qian Zhi】! Be prepared! You have taken advantage of everyone's hard work for free. You must hand over your hundreds of talismans to compensate everyone no matter what. How can you do that!"

"What are you dreaming about! Ye Zi, ignore him! He's doing it for free!"

"Bah! If that's what you mean, who in our group didn't get their points for free?"

"That's not the case with Sister Pig!"

"She didn't do much, then!"

"But the NPC who came to help was invited by her! Just tell me if you would have gotten so many points without her!"

The players were talking dirty to each other, and it took Mo Ye a long time to understand the whole story.

It turned out that the team that Second Senior Sister Zhu Tu Mengjin was in was stuck in a battlefield mission and urgently asked for external assistance!

This is a common occurrence. Some players who find something good in the wild, or need help from some high-level practitioners, will also issue a "reverse commission" to the natives in the game.

These "reverse commissions" show a polarized trend.

Some players often don't have to pay any price when asking NPCs for help, and even many natives rush to help. This group of players is represented by "Master", who had an extremely high reputation in Guangcheng Sect.

Another part of the players have to pay a huge price in exchange for the labor of NPCs - and this part of the players is even the mainstream. After all, the market labor value of real cultivators is very high.

For a player like [Pig Rush], there is no doubt that it is the former!

But what Mo Ye didn't expect was that the external aid that Second Senior Sister invited was not an ordinary cultivator, but...

Black Moon Dragon King!

"Sister, you didn't see! His cultivation is very powerful! Basically, when we meet a cage, we can overturn a BOSS, and we don't even need to take action! We just follow behind him and earn points! It's a pity that players from other communities reported us later, saying that we were cheating..."

At this point, relatives and friends were very angry: "Who is cheating? Isn't it just asking NPCs for help? If they are jealous, they can just ask them themselves! Why are you reporting it? Don't you think you can afford to play?"

Mo Ye felt that his relatives and friends seemed to be a little strange today, and they were as irritable as if they had their period, so he scratched his head in confusion and asked, "Uh... what about the Black Moon Dragon King?"

"They were squeezed out of the map! They even issued a notice at the time, saying that considering that some players' behaviors and playing methods would destroy the game balance and the experience of other players, the NPCs were banned from entering the limited-time battlefields and various dungeon maps unless they triggered hidden tasks. The only exception was the sect NPCs. But everyone went to ask the senior sister, and she said that they should do their own tasks..."

Mo Ye could only comfort his relatives and friends, and reluctantly said fairly: "Actually, think about it, the game officials are not wrong. If you can easily earn points by inviting a Dragon King, then everyone will start to pray to gods and Buddhas! If we go one step further, won't it become a competition to win the favor of the NPC and get privileges? This really destroys the fairness of the game!"

Although friends and relatives knew that Mo Ye was right, they were still the beneficiaries of the "cheating gameplay" and were still very sad that the shortcut to getting free points was banned. So they cursed and complained: "You are destroying the fairness of the game! This shit game! How can you have the illusion that it is fair!"

"Alright, alright, I've earned a lot of points for free anyway, so don't take it too seriously!"

Mo Ye consoled her a few more times, then changed the subject and asked, "By the way, what are we going to do now? Has the leader told us yet? Are we still going to have 'free fighting' as a group?"

"Oh, we'll split into two groups. One group will go to the 'Rehabilitation Sanatorium' to help and earn points, and the other group will continue to explore the limited-time battlefield map!"

The expressions on the faces of relatives and friends when they spoke were very strange, as if they were angry, but also as if they were pitying.

Mo Ye was stunned: "What the hell is a 'rehabilitation sanatorium'?"

"It was just opened with Brother Gou's help. We arranged it in Chang'an City. It was just cleaned up this morning. It was provided by a player. We will probably have to move later..."

The more he talked, the more his relatives and friends gnashed their teeth: "Those humans who were rescued, they actually...actually have normal IQs, but most of them have serious psychological problems, and their ability to lead an independent social life is too low, so they should all be taken in and slowly guided."

As she spoke, her relatives and friends' eyes even turned red. She turned her head away awkwardly and whispered, "Can you imagine? They have no leaves to cover their bodies, but they have learned to use chopsticks, learned the Middle Continent language, and even know how to give themselves names and distinguish blood ties and families!

"They try hard to imitate the real human society and can even use magic. However, it is said that once they are found using magic, they will be taken away by the demon cultivators for 'dealing'.

“And the way to ‘deal with’ them is to bury them in the body of a tree demon, letting the tree demon suck the souls of these humans until they can no longer be regarded as creatures blessed by the way of heaven—that is, monsters that are neither dead nor alive. Then they can be dug out and killed.

"In this way, eating meat will not bring about karma, and the scattered souls remaining in the human body can still increase the cultivation of demon cultivators... I'm afraid this is the fundamental reason for the existence of the human sacrifice market.

"This was told to us by an older human. He said that the people in the cages don't live past the age of 25, and are usually taken away in their twenties. He was almost there too, but he didn't expect us to come.

"He spoke the best Central Continent dialect, and he said that this was taught to everyone by two captured Central Continent human monks a long, long time ago, and was secretly passed down from generation to generation. But it is said that they were all kept together in the past, and they were kept in separate cages because they had tried to escape before.

"It was also because of the separation of cages that some people forgot how to be a 'human', while some did not. However, the same thing was that all the humans who were rescued, even if they could not speak and could only roar at each other, could pronounce our two names clearly.
