After hearing Xu Huo's words, the people present looked uneasy. A Player standing farther away said, "How can you be sure that the missing Players will end up joining the Night Tour? There's no evidence to prove that yet."
The Night Tour taking people in could mean anything. It was entirely possible that the Players had been killed, and the ghost costumes had simply appeared out of nowhere to mislead everyone.
Without concrete evidence, the local government couldn't make a hasty judgment. The only reason the Dungeon site was still relatively stable was that people were being rescued in time. The Restricted Zones were constantly drawing people in. If word got out that the local government had abandoned those trapped inside, do you think things wouldn't descend into chaos immediately?
"Young people don't know how to be flexible," the old man said. "Just test it in one or two cities. Wouldn't that tell you? The first Restricted Zone appeared in Xia City, and the Night Tour first appeared there, too. If it's not linked to time, then it must be linked to the number of people."
"But the Night Tours overlap," another Player said. "Since a Horror Theme Night Tour can appear in Lan Shui Wu, blocking off cities probably won't do much. Anyone who dies in any city could become a member of any Night Tour."
In other words, even if one or two cities didn't have enough people, they could quickly be replenished from other cities. Unless all eight cities were completely emptied, the situation wouldn't change.
Actually, for District 001 as it was now, that wouldn't be difficult. It would mean emptying a few cities, not the entire Sub-district. Given enough time, they could certainly do it. But the residents of these eight cities couldn't simply
