"Hello, Ms. Sasha."

Looking at the woman walking over, Fang Zheng greeted her. She was a rare adult woman in the Dark Moon Sword Guild, and the reason why Sasha joined the Dark Moon Sword was very simple. Initially, she wanted to join the strategy team, but unfortunately, Sasha's strength was not enough to participate in the front-line strategy, so she became a member of the production team.

After that, one day, Sasha accidentally saw a helpless child wandering on the street. She majored in education in college, and although she had not graduated yet, her sense of responsibility as a teacher still made Sasha bring the child back.

After Fang Zheng knew about this, he asked Sasha to take in the child players who had lost their guardians. After all, most of them were elementary school and junior high school students. They had no parents or relatives around them and were thrown into the game alone. Naturally, it was a heavy blow to the spirit of these children.

Therefore, Fang Zheng specially opened up an area for them to live in, but he did not intend to let these little ghosts go out to fight. They were mainly responsible for planting crops in the fields, and then Sasha was responsible for teaching. The Dark Moon Sword Guild would take care of their food, clothing, housing and transportation. At present, these little guys were living a pretty good life.

"It's rare to see you. Don't you have any missions recently?"

"We need to work together. We can't kill all the bosses by ourselves. We have to cooperate with others."

Fang Zheng would never tell anyone about the embarrassing incident of his subordinates refusing to participate in the attack because they were afraid of bugs, so he just made up an excuse to cover it up.

"How's your life going lately? Is everything alright?"

"No problem, Mr. Founder."

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, a smile of relief and joy appeared on Sasha's face.

"We have collected about 35 children in total... This is all the children in the game at present. Thank God, their mental state is still normal."

Having said that, Sasha glanced at the children around her.

"Okay, kids, continue with your work. There are still twenty minutes left."

"yes!"

Hearing what Sasha said, the little ones responded happily, and then went back to the fields to start planting.

"It seems like they listen to you."

Looking at the children who went back to use their planting skills again, Fang Zheng couldn't help but sigh, while Sasha shook her head.

"I'm still a long way from achieving my goal. This is all thanks to Mr. Fang Zheng and the guild's willingness to help... I feel a little ashamed to say this. At the beginning, I was thinking about protecting and educating these children on my own, but in fact, I was changed by them... It's incredible..."

"As long as you are good to them, they will be good to you."

Looking at those lively children, Fang Zheng couldn't help but think of the little girls in Tiandao Palace.

"Children are the flowers of the motherland. There are many little ones in the strategy team... They are not much older than them."

In Fang Zheng's strategy group, excluding Fang Zheng and the other three, the oldest one in terms of age is Aoba who looks the most like a child. She is already in her third year of high school and will graduate soon. The next ones are Eriri, Gabriel, Mimil, Lingyin and Nanami. These five people are also in high school. As for Asuna, Kuroneko, Yuki and Leafa, they are all in junior high school.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Fang Zheng, I have heard some bad rumors recently."

"rumor?"

Hearing that Sasha's voice seemed a little serious, Fang Zheng turned his head to look at her, and Sasha nodded seriously.

"I also heard from other production players that there seem to be groups of robbers and attacks targeting players recently. When leaving the starting town and heading to the leveling area or leaving the safe area of ​​the teleportation crystal, players will be surrounded by fully armed players who demand to hand over money and equipment items, otherwise they will be killed. There are even female players who have been insulted..."

"Is this true?"

Hearing this, Fang Zheng's face darkened slightly.

"How come we don't know?"

"Because those players won't go to the higher levels, they seem to be just wandering around the first, second, and third floors. They won't touch the area where the strategy team is. I only learned about this when I met a familiar production player before."

At this point, Sasha's expression became somewhat uneasy.

"Because our production players and these children are all collecting on these floors, so..."

"I see."

Before Saxia could finish her words, Fang Zheng waved his hand to interrupt her.

"I'll investigate it. Don't tell anyone else about this for now."

"……OK."

Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Saxia nodded, then bowed respectfully and turned to leave. Fang Zheng narrowed his eyes and began to think.

Fang Zheng had expected this kind of thing to happen, but he didn't expect PK players to appear so soon... These guys were clearly the cancer of the game, and they couldn't be allowed to do whatever they wanted.

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng quickly opened the contact book, then found Kuroyukihime and asked her about the situation of the PK players.

“We have indeed heard about these behaviors.”

As expected, Kuroyukihime gave Fang Zheng more detailed information.

"I heard that they seem to have organized a guild called 'Smiling Coffin', which specializes in robbing and attacking other players..."

"Aren't you going to do something?"

"This... Although we have thought about stopping it, we are only a player guild after all. Moreover, if we want to stop the Laughing Coffin, it means fighting with them, or even..."

Kuroyukihime didn't finish her words, but Fang Zheng understood what she meant. The PK in the game is not just PK. If you fight with the Laughing Coffin, you may die. Whether it is killing or being killed, it is not a happy thing for ordinary players.

"...Also, the Laughing Coffins won't attack our guild. Their targets are only lone players and ordinary players. We really have no right to intervene."

Kuroyukihime, this is the typical way of thinking of the Japanese. As the saying goes, one should not meddle in matters that are not within one's jurisdiction. Especially when it comes to matters concerning the people, it is understandable that Kuroyukihime is unwilling to interfere.

But this is not the case for Fang Zheng. They have worked so hard in the front in order to create a good environment for the rear. However, if there is a group of wild dogs in the rear that destroy their hard work, it is unacceptable to Fang Zheng.

After all, the players in the guild are all ordinary people, so it is normal for them to have doubts or even resistance to killing.

However, just because they can't do it doesn't mean Fang Zheng can't do it.

In fact, in Fang Zheng's view, these toxic players are not human beings at all.

They just walk...

ear!!!
