"Since you're so curious, I might as well tell you... The Blue Star players and the Golden Shield Clan are plotting to join forces to destroy District 023. The Third Reversed learned of your plan and tried its best to stop you, but unexpectedly, you actually sealed off District 023, intending to drag it down with you. Is this news acceptable?"
As Zhuque spoke, she watched with amusement the changing expressions on Yu Xiangnan and Bu Ya's faces, as if she were enjoying a wonderful performance.
Black flames surged and spread from her palm.
The flames, like giant black pythons, twisted and writhed, stretching infinitely into the sky at incredible speed.
In the blink of an eye, the entire sky was covered by these eerie black flames. The flames grew thicker and thicker, eventually forming an indestructible barrier that completely enveloped the entire 023 district.
This is......? !
Yu Xiangnan and Bu Ya suddenly took several steps back, staring in disbelief at the sky enveloped in black flames.
A cold light flashed in Suzaku's eyes. "This is a six-star item. Once activated, Zone 023 will be completely sealed off. At that time, no one will be able to step into it, and the players in Zone 023 will be trapped forever, with no possibility of ever getting out!"
With that, a mocking smile curled at the corner of her lips.
"You've caused quite a commotion..."
"Since we can't completely eliminate you, then we'll lock you up here forever!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a crack suddenly appeared behind her.
Thick, inky black flames surged forth from it, instantly forming a massive black hole.
With a flash, Zhuque disappeared into the darkness without hesitation.
Immediately afterwards, the countless nocturnal insects around them surged into the black hole like a tide.
In a short while, it vanished without a trace.

[Area 023]
Description: Unknown
(Entry requirements: Level ≥ 72, Strength ≥ 800, Spirit > 600)
In just seven months, or more than six months, District 023 has undergone a complete transformation.
What were once abandoned and dilapidated neighborhoods have now been replaced by high-rise buildings.
However, since the black flames engulfed the entire 023 area seven months ago, 023 has been completely isolated from the world.
People within the zone are completely unaware of the situation on all servers except Zone 023, and are unable to leave Zone 023. Similarly, the outside world is unable to contact this area.
District 023, Beilincheng.
"Buzz—"
A motorcycle sped across the overpass and finally stopped in front of a house with the address 051C.
He Huai jumped out of the car, holding the props he was going to deliver, and knocked on the door.
The door was opened quickly.
A man holding an electric drill appeared before us, his face covered in dust, his goggles pushed up to the top of his head.
He Huai said, "Props delivery."
A hint of surprise flashed in the other person's eyes. They quickly put down the drill, wiped their hands on their clothes, and took the tool: "Thank you, I've been looking forward to this for a while now, it's finally here!"
He Huai nodded in response: "You're too kind. It's good that it was delivered on time."
Just as she was about to leave, the other person insisted on inviting her inside, saying they needed her to do a small favor.
To be honest, He Huai originally intended to politely decline, but before she could even utter the words of refusal, the person enthusiastically pulled her into the house.
Upon entering the house, He Huai was shocked by the scene before him—the house was in complete disarray, a mess that was even worse than an unfinished house that had not yet been renovated.
Various parts were scattered all over the floor and table. He Huai took a few steps carefully, but accidentally kicked something. A screwdriver flew straight out and hit the man on the head with a "bang".
"Ouch—"
He Huai froze instantly, his face full of embarrassment, and the air seemed to freeze.
After a moment, He Huai spoke up: "I'm really sorry, I have another order to finish, and I'll be penalized if I'm late."
The man covered his head and grimaced as he said, "Wait, money is no problem. I'll give you more money. With your high level, you'll definitely be able to find out what's wrong with my filming equipment."
He Huai was conflicted. The extra money was indeed very tempting, but she also knew that if she delayed too long, the later orders might have big problems, and the deductions would be much more than the extra money.
Just as I was hesitating, the man spoke up again urgently: "Three times, I'll give you three times the reward! It'll only take you a little while, can you help me see if these props can be used in next week's filming?"
He Huai glanced at it quickly as he thought about it.
She crouched down and began to examine the parts.
As soon as I picked up what seemed to be a crucial component, I noticed a tiny crack on it. "This won't do. This component is damaged, and it's very likely to cause malfunctions during filming."
The man was filled with gratitude and immediately began to repair it. As he worked, he couldn't help but grumble, "I don't know who our 023 district offended. We were suddenly blocked off. No news from the outside can get in, and no one inside can get out."
Upon hearing this, He Huai's previously calm expression suddenly changed.
"......"
Being trapped here wasn't too painful for He Huai, since she hadn't left District 023 for a long time.
Currently, things are relatively stable due to the short timeframe. However, as time goes on, resources in District 023 will become increasingly scarce. Furthermore, since there are no survival rewards distributed by the system, District 023 will likely descend into chaos due to resource shortages within six months...
The man patted his butt and got up.
He picked up a pile of props and hurried into the room. Halfway there, as if he suddenly remembered something, he turned around sharply, his eyes full of curiosity: "Hey, do you know who is in charge of District 023? The news of collecting all the Qing Si badges two months ago has been all over the place. Everyone is guessing, but the person in charge has never shown up. He's very mysterious."
Hearing this, He Huai shook his head, a hint of confusion on his face: "I don't know."
"Isn't the 023 District Breakthrough Conference tomorrow?" The man scratched his head, his tone full of anticipation. "The person in charge will definitely have to show up, and the entire barrier sealing off 023 District will definitely be broken, after all, that's the Qing Si Badge."
"I'm so excited just thinking about it... I need to get my filming equipment fixed right away so I can drop the bombshell tomorrow!"
The man deftly manipulated the tools while speaking animatedly.
Upon hearing this, He Huai suddenly realized what was going on.
No wonder he was in such a hurry to fix the equipment; it turns out it was for tomorrow's boundary-breaking conference.
He Huai sighed helplessly: "I recently heard that a Seven-Star item has appeared in District 023. Have you heard of it?"
