Chapter 126 The Bright Sanatorium affects the fairness of the game and interferes with the game's progress...

Desire Strangulation Therapy Room

As Li Sheng heard Yue Jiang's footsteps fading into the distance, his heart, which had been hanging in suspense, slowly calmed down.

But before he could move, the voice returned, and he instinctively held his breath.

Finally, the person stopped in front of the Memory Shattered Skull door next door. A click sounded on the door. Li Sheng opened his hand and glanced at the key in his palm. He didn't hear Yue Jiang take the key to open the door.

"This means that Yuejiang's authority in this trial is at least at the B level."

On the hospital bed, Li Sheng's face darkened completely, and his tone was full of solemnity.

Jiang Yang tilted his head in thought, his blank gaze sweeping over the cold metal railing at the foot of the bed. He was concerned about what Yue Jiang was doing in his treatment room, something Yue Jiang hadn't mentioned since waking up.

Of course, he had no concept of the levels of trial authority, only remembering that at Un Entertainment, the management had used A-level authority to eliminate Hu Yuan.

Ji Yang directly asked the question that had been on his mind: "Explain, what can a B-level user do?"

Li Sheng couldn't help but glance at Ji Yang out of the corner of his eye, his disdain almost overflowing, a silent accusation: You're the boss, why are you asking me?

"Um?"

After a protest by a working-class man failed, he honestly explained, "Theoretically speaking, B-level privileges can manipulate parts of the trial mechanism, disrupt the internal balance and difficulty of the trial, and interfere with the player's normal trial progress."

"But what about in practice?"

Jiang Yang asked this question.

“Actually, I don’t know,” Li Sheng shrugged. “I’m in charge of the new recruit assessment for Mouguang, but the authority that Mouguang can get from the beginning is basically only C level. C level is about leaving a way out for the candidates within the scope of authority, maintaining the normal operation of the trial, and preventing the trial from collapsing.”

"How did Litanvi obtain higher-level privileges?"

The Bright Sanatorium was Litanvi's trial, and Mouguang, despite being ranked first on the guild leaderboard, had lower authority than Litanvi...

Jiang Yang turned his gaze to Ji Yang beside him. If Mou Guang could also obtain higher authority through certain specific means, it meant that Litanwei's authority was within its scope.

Unfortunately, Ji Yang guessed his thoughts, pursed his lips and shook his head: "I don't have a way to raise the privilege level."

"Could it be because the cooperation agreements signed between Litanvi and Gota are different?"

Li Sheng guessed that the players had witnessed the relationship between Litanvi and the Tower, and many demons who joined Litanvi did so with the intention of gaining the Tower's protection. Nan Ke had mentioned this issue to Jiang Yang before.

“No,” Jiang Yang suddenly realized something, staring at the toe of the shoe and frowning, “It seems we can’t judge it that way.”

"What's the meaning?"

Ji Yang casually raised his arm and tucked a strand of hair behind the temple of the man's glasses.

"I'm wondering, is it that Mou Guang doesn't have this authority, or that you don't have this authority?"

In other words, does the permission itself originate from Litanvi or Yuejiang?

Jiang Yang adjusted his glasses. "Does Un Entertainment have an affiliated guild?"

The guild leader of the largest guild in the Borderlands bit his lip sheepishly, "I don't know."

“I know,” sighed a daytime worker. “I haven’t seen this trial at the auction before, so it must not belong to any guild.”

Someone tried to explain: "Yangyang, I don't go to auctions much. They're noisy and chaotic inside."

"Okay, good boy."

Li Sheng's inner monologue: Isn't he being a bit too oblivious to everyone else?

Ji Yang pinched his earlobe; the spot Jiang Yang had inadvertently touched was surprisingly hot.

“This is what I think,” Jiang Yang said with clear eyes, “When we were in Un Entertainment, the number of NPC deaths became too high in the later stages, so we had to increase the level of judgment and kill Hu Yuan to restrict our actions.”

"Assuming the Tower granted Litanvii B-level or higher privileges from the beginning, what would Litanvii need those privileges for?"

No, no, no, Jiang Yang immediately denied himself after saying that. He was wrong from the beginning and there was no need to separate Litanwei and Yuejiang.

Yuejiang is not someone who can be restrained. Whatever Litanwei wants, if Yuejiang is going to get involved, it will only be something that Yuejiang needs.

"The question is, what does Yuejiang want?"

Ji Yang reminded him, "Have you forgotten? Judging from Yue Jiang's current behavior, he no longer has any personal motives."

There was one, Hoshino, but Hoshino is no longer with us.

Even if Yuejiang entered the Bright Sanatorium for Hoshino's sake, it should be noted that Hoshino has never entered the No Man's Land before, so Yuejiang does not need to use her B-level privileges for Hoshino's sake.

“I understand,” Jiang Yang snapped his fingers: “It’s the tower.”

Only tall towers have a purpose that needs to be achieved.

Li Sheng asked, puzzled: "A tall tower?"

"Ha," Ji Yang sneered, "For those judges?"

That's not the point.

The key point is...

Ji Yang realized what was happening, and his words overlapped with Jiang Yang's unfinished sentence: "This is against the rules."

In order to send the judges who remained at the Sanatorium of Light to the No Man's Land, the Tower went so far as to elevate the scope of its judgment authority.

This affects the fairness of the game and interferes with the game's progress; it constitutes a top-level violation.

"I'm here to report a bug."

007 can report an error directly, but when switched back to Ji Yang, he can only submit the report as a normal player would.

While waiting for Ji Yang to operate the control panel, Jiang Yang raised an eyebrow and continued to ask Li Sheng, "What happened next? What happened? How did you faint on the basement level?"

"Don't rush, it's still early, we're not there yet."

Li Sheng sighed heavily again: "I found Yang Yi's treatment records in the Desire Extermination Treatment Room."

After standing for a while, Jiang Yang leaned against the edge of the bed. Yang Yi and the demon had switched identities, and it seemed that the treatment room had also been changed.

“And…” Li Sheng paused slightly, “Yang Yi’s death report.”

...

"Yes, he's dead."

He died on the second floor of Building 1. Before he died, he was clutching the wound Jiang Yang had stabbed in his shoulder. The blood had congealed into black, as if he had lost too much blood.

"But the problem is that the player who was supposed to die during the evening event last night did not have a death report in his treatment room."

After finding no other clues in the treatment room, Li Sheng waited at the door. Once he was sure there was no movement outside, he quietly opened the door and went out.

The man's name was Wang Lang. Li Sheng had noticed him the moment he appeared in the caregiver team last night, so he deliberately followed behind him.

The caregivers all live in a dormitory-style dormitory on the -1 floor of Building 2.

Unlike the others, Wang Lang followed Mu Nashe into one of the treatment rooms.

After the door closed, Li Sheng stepped forward and glanced at it. The sign read "Anxiety Dissipation," which was probably anxiety disorder.

"However, unlike other treatment rooms, this treatment room does not require a key."

"No key needed? Then what do you need? Playing cards?"

Li Sheng nodded: "Yes."

"You should have a card too, right?"

Jiang Yang was certain that Ji Yang had told him that all players had cards.

"Yes, I do, but my cards can't open the door."

Jiang Yang guessed, "It should be that only cards that have been handed to Mu Nashe are considered activated."

"That's why I came to Building 1 today and asked Shu Zhuo for his cards."

Just as Li Sheng finished speaking, Ji Yang finished submitting his work, put away the panel, and sat down next to Jiang Yang.

"After I came out, I went to Wang Lang's treatment room. First of all, Wang Lang was not in the treatment room, and secondly, there was no death report for Wang Lang in the treatment room."

Jiang Yang sat down. "Does the lack of a death report mean he's still alive in the nursing home?"

"It's a real shame that one of our patients has died unexpectedly. As a result, his card will be invalidated and you will not be able to use it."

Li Sheng grabbed his hair in frustration: "The problem is that if he dies, but is still in some visible state of being alive, shouldn't he become a caregiver or an NPC based on our previous trial experience?"

“Perhaps the patient Munashe mentioned who died was not him,” Ji Yang speculated. “We just mistakenly thought he was dead because of the second half of Munashe’s sentence.”

"Then a new question arises: what is Munasher's purpose in doing this?"

One question after another left Jiang Yang feeling melancholy.

Ji Yang comforted him, "It's alright, the evening event will be held in Building 2, we'll have a chance."

“However, from a standpoint of opinion, I think we can trust Munashe.”

Li Sheng's tone suddenly became firm: "After I broke free from Jiao Xu, I happened to run into Yue Jiang, who had emerged from the shattered skull of memories."

"He seemed to be in a hurry, so he didn't notice me. I followed him all the way to the basement."

"It was Yuejiang who burned down the archives, but it wasn't him who burned down the basement."

At that time, Li Sheng was hiding in the bathroom.

After the dark figure appeared in the bathroom mirror, Li Sheng immediately noticed it.

Similarly, Shadow also discovered Li Sheng, but due to the layout of the bathroom, Shadow could not use the mirror to attack Li Sheng.

But soon Li Sheng smelled a pungent odor, not coming from the archives room, but from upstairs.

Li Sheng tentatively stepped out of the restroom stall, but the shadow was gone. He carefully felt his way up the stairs, only to find that the fire had burned the entire floor without leaving any gaps.

He didn't notice that there was a huge dressing mirror on the basement level.

"I've been attacked."

Jiang Yang asked incredulously, "Are you sure it's a mirror too?"

"Yes, a shadow wearing a black robe and a hoodie, completely covered up."

"He... seems... a bit... busy..."

Jiang Yang commented with a troubled expression, "If it's the same person, then they first attacked him and Ji Yang in the restaurant, then ran to Building 2 and set it on fire, and finally followed Yue Jiang to her room sneaking around."

!!

Shadow has already decided that he and Ji Yang cannot be used, so it's definitely not because of him and Ji Yang that he appeared in Yuejiang's room.

The archives were set on fire, the basement was set on fire—were they trying to burn Yuejiang to death? But shouldn't Yuejiang and the judge be partners?

If Shadow wasn't doing this for Yuejiang, Jiang Yang's pupils contracted. "He was trying to stop the others from going down to put out the fire!"

Upon receiving this message, the Eye of Depravity in front of the boy sitting in the ruins splashed a small patch of water.

The boy smiled and said, "You're so clever, Jiang Yang."

Li Sheng dropped another bombshell: "By the way, it was Mu Nashe who saved me."
