As the fog dispersed, the sky rapidly darkened.
Gu Xi, who had originally been flying through the sky, also descended to the ground.
Using the effect of Nightfire and the guidance of the Nether Spirit Flower, Gu Xi continued toward the factories on the outskirts of the Living Area at an incredibly fast pace.
However, when Gu Xi approached the factory, a strange feeling suddenly flashed through his mind.
Gu Xi paused, narrowing his eyes as the Nether Spirit Flower immediately circled back around him.
At the same time, Gu Xi saw an image.
Not long after returning to his own territory, Pink Mist Man swiftly packed his things, took most of the documents, and left the factory district.
He was heading out of the city. Judging by the time shown in the image, he had already been gone for more than an hour.
He ran out of the city?
No, he had not merely run out of the city. He had exited the game.
What was going on? How could he exit the game?
The moment this thought surfaced, Gu Xi immediately called out.
"New Nine-tailed."
Orange Equipment Guardian - New Nine-tailed immediately appeared beside Gu Xi.
"Check whether I was unknowingly brainwashed.
Why do I feel as though these players would never voluntarily exit the game?"
As soon as Gu Xi finished speaking, Orange Equipment Guardian - New Nine-tailed appeared behind him.
She first looked Gu Xi over, then looked around in surprise, a trace of realization appearing in her eyes.
"No wonder I didn't notice. Someone had actually arranged the Great Brainwashing Spell in every corner of the city.
It had been woven into daily life. Anyone who stayed here long enough would unconsciously believe this was a safe zone and that players would not fight here.
