Chapter 108 Confinement
Kang Mang had been waiting in Bannock City early.
"Let's eat first. I'll make up for the redness."
Kang Mang said as he took Huo Xiu into a restaurant.
In Godless World, food not only restores health, but also provides a very realistic taste experience.
In real life, these dishes are usually only enjoyed by male insects or nobles.
Most female insects prefer convenient and quick nutritional supplements.
"You have no idea how long it's been since I've had a good time grinding a dungeon! My guildmates are all off playing Garden Town. Ugh, not a single bug is paying attention to me at this hour! I clearly see they're all online!"
"I just don't understand. What's so fun about that garden town? To put it bluntly, isn't it all just data?"
He shook his head repeatedly. He had been farming wild monsters alone for a long time. In larger dungeons, he could only be randomly matched with unfamiliar monsters, so he was very resentful.
Kang Mang was determined to stop his new gaming partner from playing Garden Town.
"You mustn't go to Garden Town. Falling in love will only make insects lose their fighting spirit! Besides, those are all illusory things. It's better to hone your fighting skills! No matter how good your relationship with a virtual male insect is, your spiritual sea will still go berserk!"
Unexpectedly, the red-haired female insect sitting at the table behind them was displeased when she heard this. She immediately turned her head and glared at Kang Mang: "You bitch, you're bullshit!"
"I'm talking to my friend, what's it to you?" Kang Mang slammed his wine glass on the table. "What's the point of falling in love with a virtual male insect? They're not even in the same dimension!"
The red-haired female insect also had a bad temper, and the two of them started fighting after a disagreement.
The NPC in the restaurant bar called for the guards anxiously - Bannock City is a living area and fighting is prohibited.
Huo Xiu looked at the chaotic scene in front of him and felt a headache.
He hit the knees of the two female insects with his scabbard. Seeing them rolling in a ball, he grabbed Kangman's collar and pulled him out - he had no money and needed a bug to pay the bill.
Kang Mang pursed his lips and the next moment he howled in grievance.
"Shut up." Huo Xiu couldn't stand it anymore.
Kang Mang covered his mouth with his hands in grievance.
The guards arrived at the scene quickly.
These NPCs not only have absolute military strength, but also have law enforcement power - they can punish players who fight in Bannock City.
"Don't move!" The guards were a group of tall and strong female insects, wearing uniform armor. The captain in charge frowned, "What's going on?"
The bar waiter immediately stepped forward and explained the situation. He had his own scene playback and showed the video of Kang Mang fighting with another female insect to the chief guard.
Although the dispute was initiated by another female insect, it was Kang Mang who took the first step.
"Fighting is prohibited within the city of Bannock. You have violated the public order regulations. As punishment, violators will be placed under 24-hour confinement."
"24 hours? Why did you lock me up for so long? It was this bastard who started it first!" The red-haired female insect yelled. Garden Town has daily tasks, and he can't miss them!
"Who are you calling a bastard?"
The captain of the guard frowned, he raised his hand, and the two screaming female insects were instantly tied up tightly by the solid blue ripples.
"Captain of the Guard! He has an accomplice!" Seeing that she couldn't escape, the red-haired female insect suddenly turned around and shouted in Huo Xiu's direction, "He hit me with something! They are in cahoots!"
"Every bug has its own share of responsibility. I hit you, why are you blaming my friend?" Kang Mang glared at him angrily.
The red-haired female insect raised her eyebrows and gave him a twisted smile.
The guard captain replayed the video and then looked at Huo Xiu, who was wearing a black hood not far away. "You will also come with us and be locked up for 12 hours."
Bannock City prohibits any form of fighting. Although Huo Xiu did not actively participate in the incident, he did attack Kang Mang and the red-haired female insect at the same time. And from Kang Mang's words, it was confirmed that he and Huo Xiu were together.
This is actually a very light punishment, because the time in the game and in reality are synchronized. It is already 11 o'clock in the evening, and twelve hours later it will only be 11 o'clock tomorrow morning. If Huo Xiu is a normal player, he only needs to go online later.
But Huo Xiu is not.
He needed to be back in Garden Town before seven in the morning—he didn't want Kaka to notice anything unusual.
The captain of the guard took out the handcuffs, but saw that the black figure who had been standing quietly by the side suddenly moved. He used the protruding fangs and thorns of the alien building to quickly climb onto the roof, as agile as a leopard.
"A criminal has escaped!"
"Chase!"
The NPCs of the guard team rushed forward, leaving only two criminals tied up like blue dumplings and other players watching the fun at the door of the bar.
"Holy crap, that's brave! He must be a new bug... He doesn't think he can dodge these NPCs with pure force, does he?"
"Hahahahaha, I feel like I'm back to the first month of the server opening! It was so lively back then! It was also quite funny to watch some players fighting with NPCs every day!"
"Unfortunately, the game was later revised, and the NPC guards in the living area have absolute law enforcement authority! This is a game, and who really thinks they can escape? Once the data is locked, they can't move!"
After all, the Zerg are belligerent, and fights often break out in the living quarters. Later, "Godless World" stopped using the fancy arrest process and just enforced it directly.
"Tsk, is your friend mentally ill or does he only have internet access at home? And he dares to refuse law enforcement. Hahahaha, I think he'll be the one to be imprisoned the longest."
The red-haired female insect was wrapped up in a ball but still did not forget to speak provocatively.
"You!" Kang Mang gritted his teeth.
"I don't want to play with you anymore, idiot!" They will be in this state for 24 hours, and he doesn't want to stay here and embarrass himself!
Kang Mang watched the red-haired female insect disappear in a flash. He was furious and worried about his friend who had escaped.
It seems his gaming partner is a complete newbie! He didn't even know you shouldn't clash with the Guard NPCs!
These NPCs have limited intelligence. If you feel that the decision is wrong, you can apply to contact the Insect Worker customer service!
But the consequences of resisting arrest are very serious! The sentence will be many days!
——
Huo Xiu was still caught.
After he jumped a few blocks, his body suddenly glowed with blue light, and then the blue light suddenly tightened and turned into ropes that bound him.
The captain of the guard angrily stuffed a copy of the "Public Security Management Regulations of Bannock City" into his hand, and then locked him up in a small detention room - if a player does not log off in time after being put in detention, he will appear in this place.
A countdown appeared above the confinement room, showing that he had 119:47 left before he could leave.
And the 7 hours on his private interface are still eye-catching.
Huo Xiu didn't know which restriction would take precedence.
If the restrictions of Garden Town take priority, then he will return to Lily Garden after 7 hours, and then be charged with escaping from prison in the player area - this does not matter. His only worry is that they may notice that there is something wrong with his "data".
If the restrictions in the confinement room take precedence, Kaka and other players will still be discovered unless they do not go to Lily Garden in the next five days.
But that's unlikely.
Huo Xiu frowned. He had tried before, and this confinement room was just like the cabin, it was indestructible.
This also means he can't escape.
He leaned back in his chair and began to flip through the book on public security regulations.

[Holy crap, has that plague god C gone mad? He's been in the arena for over 24 hours now! What's he doing? I was only one game away from completing my winning streak, and he's knocked me right back to square one!]
[These past few days, not many players have managed to complete their winning streak. :) He specifically challenges those who have already won seven or eight games! He does it on purpose!!!]
[I don't know. This is really crazy. I almost got hunted down in Garden Town! Fortunately, he can't enter Lord Roy's garden!]
[A couple of days ago, he was walking around the streets of Garden Town. I had no idea what he was doing. He looked menacing and feminine. If you didn't know him, you would think he'd been dumped!]
[Hmm... How can you say he wasn't dumped? I haven't seen Mr. Male Insect in the vegetable garden these past two days.]
[Is there a bug? Or was you invited out by some female insect?]
[There's no official announcement, so it shouldn't be a bug. So this vegetable garden thing is ridiculous. All the female insects are seeing the same Master? If you go on an outing, all the other female insects will be disappointed?]
[Didn't you see the top post? Lily Garden's model is different from other gardens.]
This is so competitive! The gaming experience is terrible! How is it different from real life?!
[So... C's house was robbed? He's always guarding the garden, and yet he was robbed. He killed me the moment I went in before.]
[Me too, so seeing him like this now... I can only say it's fate!]
[Hahahahaha, my house wasn't really robbed, was it?! You've been guarding it for so long, have you and the other players completed your mission? And you're still not coming home at night?]
[#Your Excellency, please don't hold the Pipa, I will stay in the empty vegetable garden#]
[This is kind of funny! Help! ]
Is it funny? Is it really funny? Is it funny to fight nine games in the arena, finally maintain a winning streak, and then be pulled back to where you were?
[Sau Rui! I'm not laughing at the host! I'm laughing! Tiger touch the host]
——
At the same time, in the alien area outside the federal jurisdiction.
A huge starship is sailing.
A blue light flashed in the game cabin, and the door opened after a moment.
A female insect walked out of the game cabin. She had platinum curly hair that was shinier than satin.
Sensing the movement in the house, Sean, who had been guarding outside the door, hurriedly shouted, "Report!"
Carlos Palmer slowly put on his black gloves.
The gloves fit very closely to his skin, outlining his slender fingers. The black leather gloves extended all the way to the middle of his forearm.
He was tall and thin, and his impeccable manners made him look more like a pampered aristocrat.
——Instead of the notorious pirates in the alien domain.
His gem-green eyes tilted upwards slightly: "Are we there yet?"
"The starship will arrive at Raman in 10 minutes."
Sean has been with Carlos for so long that he knows exactly what each type of glove represents.
The gloves Carlos is wearing now are made of the skin of some kind of star beast. Although they look very thin and fit, they can block all liquids.
—Not to be stained with blood during battle.
Carlos has a very serious mysophobia and will never have physical contact with any living thing - except in combat.
But Carlos has been in a very bad mood recently. Sean guessed that it was because of the disturbance caused by the defector a few days ago.
"Judd approached Clay and wanted to make a deal."
Clay is the main bug of Raman Star, which is the most notorious place in the alien world.
This is a sinister place where any deal can be made. As long as the corresponding reward is paid, there are many pirates who will complete the client's request.
"That self-righteous guy thought he could get protection from other forces after betraying you."
Sean laughed twice, his voice mixed with a hint of amusement and gloating, as if he saw the expression that was about to appear on Judd's face.
"But he doesn't know..."
"The alien domain has always had only one master."
In the vast alien domain, although there are countless stars and complex forces, there is always only one true master.
