It was a conclusion that was both surprising and unsurprising.
There had always been people dealing in this kind of dirty business, but he had never expected anyone to target Players.
Song Xiaohua seemed to have found a way to draw fire. Without even pausing for breath, he said, "After Players evolve, their organs are more compatible, and their organs are more useful than ordinary people's. They can even give patients a better quality of life. This business has existed ever since Evolution began. Didn't you investigate some Underground Markets?"
"Most of the Evolvers who were locked up probably met the same fate."
"Players are valuable whether dead or alive. I really was only responsible for luring people in... The others handled everything afterward... Some of them are outside, and some are in Dungeons. They use Dungeons to kill people. As soon as someone dies, they can take the organs right away. It's even better if a Player is seriously injured."
Xu Huo let go of him. "What about the people who wanted to buy my brain?"
"There are custom orders for every kind of business." Song Xiaohua said, "Some people think that Players who've undergone special Evolution might have special effects. Some are after physical abilities, some want the eyes and ears, and others want the brain... They think organs from these people are better than organs from ordinary Players..."
"Can people replace brains now?" Xu Huo didn't believe it. If they could perform that kind of surgery, why go to all the trouble of buying organs?
"I don't know. I only heard it was a major deal, and someone offered a very high price. They didn't say what it was for." Song Xiaohua clutched his throat and cautiously edged backward, until his hand found paper and a pen.
