Chapter 2239 Why the name was changed

None of the people selected nearby were high-level players. Like ordinary people, there were also many low-level players nearby to join in the fun. Of the more than 20 people Xu Huo selected, ten of them finally admitted that they were wanted criminals.

Nine, in order to avoid trouble, he pulled them all into his unlocked area through the spiritual portal to kill them.

After nineteen wanted criminals died, his circular unlocking area finally expanded, quickly covering several nearby streets.

But it's only a few streets, not as big as the starting area of ​​the two players who just passed by.

But this is enough for him to move around.

The others quickly disappeared from the street. The players who gathered around were a little disappointed when they saw that they had escaped, but they did not stay there for too long and quickly left the place.

Players' unlocking areas overlap, and the boundaries of everyone's unlocking areas are very similar. In other words, if you don't know your own unlocking area, or you don't know the rules of the unlocking area, it's easy to get lost without knowing it.

Step out of the unlocked area while sleeping.

Judging from the pressure from players in the city, it is not a good thing to step out of the unlocked area.

After dealing with some wanted criminals who had changed their disguises nearby, Xu Huo changed his appearance and walked out of the building.

Shops in the city are still open as usual, and there are a lot of people wandering around. However, people selling and buying things are extremely alert. Any slightest disturbance anywhere will trigger a huge response. Some go to join in the fun, and some rush to find a place.

Hide.

Xu Huo stopped at the corner of a street and turned to look at the words "Game Point" on the street sign next to him.

He has seen five such road signs along the way, and when the spiritual world is released, there are more such road signs, but except for the three words "Game Point" above, there are no more signs. Passers-by turn a blind eye and do not care.

People talk about this.

On the other hand, there were two fashionably dressed old men in the next street carrying sledgehammers and smashing a street sign that said "Game Point" with all their strength.

When Xu Huo was about to go over and ask, the two of them suddenly fell to the ground with bleeding from their mouths and noses.

"Why are you making so much noise in broad daylight? Didn't you see I'm sleeping?" A player from the shop upstairs cursed at the window and turned around to draw the curtains.

People on the street turned a blind eye to such killings, and soon players patrolling the city came over and pulled the bodies away.

Xu Huo picked up a map on the roadside.

The area of ​​One Third City is indeed quite large, comparable to the area of ​​a medium-sized country in Area 014. On the map, the city is divided into fifty small areas, numbered from 1 to 50, with the fiftieth area

This area is the center of the city, occupied by the player organization in charge of the city, and the municipal government they established is also there, and the two are inseparable.

However, judging from the situation nearby, the city government basically does not show up to maintain the basic operation of the city. Except when there are corpses, their people will come out to take care of them, and other times they basically do not show up.

The area Xu Huo is currently in is District 5, which shares a reservoir with District 6 next door. People in Districts 5 and 6 are still stuck on the boundary line of the city map, and are yelling at each other over the water issue.

Even the daily use of water and energy is autonomous by each region. Think about the sanitation environment and the supply of food and daily necessities. There are two adjacent streets that are managed and unsupervised.

"Why can't they cross districts?" Xu Huo watched the excitement on the roadside for a while and then chatted with the locals.

The middle-aged woman carrying some fruits glanced at him up and down, and said in a neutral tone: "Why else? That's what the city government stipulates."

Xu Huo had seen law enforcement agencies occupied by foreign players before, and no one from the district government had provided corresponding consultation.

Still using the old method, he took out a small wad of white money.

The middle-aged woman grabbed the money and took his arm to a place where there were few people. "Oh, you young man looks a bit like my distant relative. I feel friendly at first sight. Come on, come on, eldest sister."

Please eat the fruit."

After finding a place with few people, the middle-aged woman hung the basket on her arm and began to count the money, saying, "Just ask whatever you want."

"Only locals can't cross regions, or can foreign players also not cross regions?" Xu Huo said.

"Of course it's those of us who live in Buliu City." The woman counted the money backwards again without raising her head, "Who can care about you players? No one cares about you anywhere."

"This place was originally called Buliu City? Why did it change its name? When did it change its name?" Xu Huo did not forget that the name of this copy was "One-third City".

"Everyone calls me that. I haven't changed my name seriously. Everyone is used to it." The woman said funnyly: "Besides, in such a shabby place, who bothers to change the name?"

That has to do with copies.

The number "one-third" should be related to copies that can be widely circulated and gradually replace the original city name.

"I said you foreign players have a lot of things to do. You have to ask questions no matter what your name is." The middle-aged woman put the money in her pocket and said, "Sister, I have accepted your money, so I will tell you a few more words."

"I heard that some players seemed to have called it out first, saying that they were stuck at one-third of the level. We locals couldn't stand up to outsiders. They called it that, and we followed suit."

As she spoke, the woman picked out the smallest fruit from the basket and handed it to Xu Huo, "Sister, please eat it."

He stuffed the fruit into his hand, turned around and left.

"Don't believe her." At this time, a voice came from upstairs. Xu Huo raised his head. It was a young woman dressed in simple clothes. "She is a famous liar on this street. She never tells the truth."

"Really?" Xu Huo said, "Then why was this place renamed one-third?"

"Isn't it because of a copy called 'One-Third'?" The young woman asked strangely: "Aren't you here to make this copy?"

"I just feel it's a bit strange. The original name sounded pretty nice, but the new name is inconvenient to call and doesn't look like a formal name," Xu Huo said.

The woman smiled and said, "It's just a name, what's the big deal. It's almost dinner time, why don't you come over for a meal? The food in restaurants outside is expensive and unsafe. If you come to my house to eat, just pay for the food."

.”

Xu Huo did not refuse her kindness and walked up the side stairs to the third floor.

"Is there anyone else in the house?" Xu Huo stopped at the door. Without him having to worry, he could hear snoring coming from the bedroom.
