I was forced to stay?
What kind of outside factor could make a Player give up their freedom and stay here?
Going past the instance's time limit?
But even if someone failed to leave the instance after fourteen days, they wouldn't miss the next instance. And even if they did, it would only be a month. That wasn't enough to scare someone into staying here.
"Have any of the missing people reappeared?" Xu Huo asked.
Wang Mo didn't understand what he meant. "How could missing people reappear?"
Xu Huo's brow furrowed slightly.
On his first night here, he had indeed sensed a fluctuation in Space Power. At the time, Little River City was still under the broader spatial restriction. If the disappearances had nothing to do with Little River City's Players, perhaps something was wrong with the space itself.
When he had searched for the Perfect Potion in District 009 at the E27 wormhole point, time and space had also become chaotic inside Sun Museum City. If Little River City happened to be in a place like that, the missing Players might have been swallowed up by another space. Naturally, this was only a theory, with no solid evidence for now.
But if that premise held true, perhaps the Players who chose to stay in Little River City had missed their chance to leave the high-risk instance for that very reason.
Not everyone had the courage to face another high-risk instance.
"By the way, aren't you curious about how there are so many Players in Little River City?" Xu Huo looked at Wang Mo.
"We have Mr. Kang to thank for that." Wang Mo stared at him. "Without Mr. Kang, how could so many of us have survived?"
"I heard children were born in Little River City," Xu Huo said
