To be honest, this video does not actually reveal much information. Even the important information that "extraordinary abilities will be blocked" only comes from the self-reports of death row inmates.
This single narrative is unreliable.
Of course, Xu Han was not stupid enough to draw conclusions from this video. She later released several death row prisoners into the restricted area, and got basically the same result.
"This is completely different from the Equality Paradise I used to know..." Yang Buwei recalled what he just saw and sighed, "If all the expanding restricted areas undergo similar changes, I'm afraid it will be very disturbing to many people.
I have a headache."
He was referring to the change in penalty area rules.
This is indeed the case, which means that the intelligence accumulated by various urban areas on known restricted areas in the past will no longer be effective, and all previous efforts will be in vain.
In order to prevent the restricted area from continuing to expand, humans will also have to quickly clean up the restricted area and will no longer be able to use it as an "orchard" for producing rare treasures.
A large amount of intelligence needs to be collected before clearing the restricted area, and the collection of new intelligence will inevitably bring about a large number of casualties. This is completely foreseeable.
"Does Dongyang City have a corresponding solution for Equality Paradise?" After a moment of silence, he asked.
The result of the discussion in the parliament is that all expansion restricted areas should be cleared as soon as possible, and at the same time, the public should try not to be aware of the expansion of the restricted areas, so as not to cause unnecessary panic.
On this point, all urban areas have the same view.
After all, the expansion of the restricted area means the reduction of the safe zone, and some urban areas built next to the restricted area are even more tense.
As descendants of the "elites" who were once left in the urban areas, people in the urban areas now do not want to experience similar struggles again.
After all...no one wants to be expelled from the city as an unwanted person.
"We plan to conduct an in-depth exploration of Equality Paradise to obtain more information."
Xu Han replied, "Currently, a large number of explorers have gathered at the entrance of Pingping Paradise, ready to take action at any time... Most of them come here for the huge prize money from the exploration program."
"Bonus...this should be arranged by you, right?"
"Yes." Xu Han did not deny this and said calmly, "Since the signal in Pingding Paradise will not be blocked, we will arrange for people to conduct live broadcasts so that the outside world can always pay attention to the situation in the restricted area."
Yang Buwei was silent for a while: "A lot of people will die."
Everyone was stunned, and a council member smiled and asked: "Congressman Yang is joking, how can there be no undead people in the restricted area?"
But it should have been your people who died...
Yang Buwei said in his heart.
The original intention of the establishment of the Exclusion Bureau was to clear the restricted area and expand the land in the safe zone. Therefore, the agents of the Exclusion Bureau should be at the forefront of fighting the creatures in the restricted area, instead of deceiving civilians to go in and collect clues like this.
I don't know since when, many forbidden areas have adopted similar practices. Agents have become accustomed to hiding behind the public and will not clear restricted areas until the information is complete.
This is why mystery programs thrive.
Many explorers don't know the truth, but Yang Buwei knows it very well - the explorers seem to be looking for a way out for themselves, but in fact they are using their lives to obtain information for the Bureau of Forbidden Removal, and at the same time they are also pleasing others.
This matter was not a secret in the eyes of the upper class, and he did not dwell too much on the topic. Instead, he sighed and asked: "Approximately how many people will enter the restricted area this time?"
"Maybe there will be dozens of them." Xu Han thought for a while and replied, "After all, it is an amusement park. It would be more logical to have more people..."
Dozens?
Sensing Yang Buwei's sudden intimidating gaze, Xu Han explained: "Congressman Yang, there is no need to look at me like this. Whether to enter the restricted area is the personal choice of the explorers. They all took the initiative to accept the rewards offered by the program.
But no one has ever forced them."
Yang was not afraid to comment. He was very familiar with the tricks of these guys: "Did the reward tell them the latest rules of Equality Paradise?"
"Of course, there's nothing to hide."
Xu Han said, a strange smile suddenly appeared on his face, "And what's interesting is...many of the people who accepted the bounty this time are ordinary people."
Ordinary people?
Yang Buwei was stunned for a moment and quickly figured out the reason.
In today's era, becoming a transcendent is what everyone is born to pursue, but there are too few people who are born with abilities. Everything is decided at the moment of birth.
In order to realize their dream of becoming extraordinary people, many ordinary people have no choice but to become practitioners. After all, it is possible to realize it the day after tomorrow——
The prerequisite for becoming a practitioner is to obtain a source stone. However, most of the source stones from the outside world have been found and distributed. They are basically in the hands of the Forbidden Bureau, Huangquan, group forces and other large forces. Most of the rest are in
Within the restricted area.
Danger and opportunity always coexist in the restricted area.
Even if they are unable to obtain the Origin Stone in the forbidden area and become a practitioner, explorers will still have the opportunity to obtain other rare treasures, thereby changing their own destiny. No matter how bad things are, they can still find something to sell at a good price.
However, in the past, exploring forbidden areas has always been the exclusive preserve of extraordinary people. It’s not that ordinary people can’t go there, it’s just that if they go there, there will be no chance of survival——
But now, there is such a restricted area that even ordinary people can set foot in. In it, even extraordinary people will be suppressed to the level of ordinary people. Everyone will stand on the same starting line, so many people are tempted.
...especially for the outcasts in a third-rate town.
No one wants to live in the wilderness forever, and if given the chance, who doesn't want to become the extraordinary person that everyone respects?
But having said that, people today's fear of restricted areas has always been deep-rooted. With so many ordinary people suddenly appearing who are willing to take risks in restricted areas, it is difficult for Yang Buwei not to suspect that no one is deliberately advocating behind this.
"I see."
"But we have seen before that if you want to use a camera in Equality Paradise, you will have to pay a price, so the live broadcast will be a very dangerous thing. Have you told those explorers about this?"
Although he couldn't stand the fact that various cities used explorers as tools to collect intelligence, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. After all, to put it bluntly, everyone still got what they needed.
But if he deliberately concealed information to achieve a certain purpose, or even deceived the explorer, then he would not be able to accept it.
Xu Han said with a smile: "Don't worry, Representative Yang. I will leave the live broadcast to a few death row inmates. Being able to exert the final value before death can be regarded as atonement for the crimes they committed in the past."
Xu Han did not hide her thoughts. She never thought that the so-called reduced sentence policy for exploring restricted areas was a welfare for prisoners. It was just to allow them to voluntarily emit the last bit of residual heat.
...It can be considered a worthy death.
"This woman is cruel enough."
Yang Buwei made a mental evaluation.
"By the way, this exploration plan of Equality Paradise has another purpose - that is to test the characteristics of the forbidden sequence s-gravekeeper."
After a while, Xu Han across from him suddenly spoke seriously.
Yang Buwei was stunned.
He had actually already made some guesses about the tombkeeper's presence in Dongyang City, but the problem was that he hadn't even asked yet, so why had this guy already confessed it?
I thought I was going to do Tai Chi for a while...
He glanced at the three congressmen and said with a smile: "You are quite honest."
"I don't believe that everyone in the council can't see such an obvious anomaly in City No. 3. Instead of hiding it and waiting for your questioning, it would be better to explain it honestly."
When Xu Han spoke, there were no strange expressions on the faces of the three members of Dongyang City, which showed that they had probably reached a consensus.
In other words, Xu Han's behavior may have come from the instruction of the director of the council chamber who never appeared...
Yang Buwei pondered for a moment: "I already know the characteristics of the tombkeeper, and the new rules of Equality Paradise can indeed match his characteristics... But aren't you afraid of problems?"
He smiled half-heartedly and said, "Once the tombkeeper notices an abnormality, there will be unpredictable changes - can you afford such a price?"
Xu Han acted quite calmly about this, and she replied: "The reason why Dongyang City did not report the information about the tombkeepers to the parliament is because we were already prepared to bear any price."
"Really, I don't think so? Otherwise, others wouldn't have been hiding from me..."
Yang Buwei's voice suddenly became colder, "Your purpose is to control the tomb keeper, right?"
This is not difficult to guess. The plan for City No. 3 is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and cannot be as simple as "containment". Combined with the characteristics of the tomb keeper, this is obviously a special environment constructed to observe him.
"Yes, that's nothing to admit."
"That is an S-level taboo sequence. You are doing a very dangerous thing." Yang Buwei said coldly.
"Risks and benefits are always equal. As far as I know, didn't the Parliament make many risky decisions when it was first established?"
"I see. It seems that you are indeed ready..." Yang Buwei smiled and suddenly changed the subject, "But you have crossed the line."
"This matter has not been approved by the parliament, so it is illegal. We will not do anything to you this time, but we will kill the tombkeeper."
After all, all urban districts are still under the control of the council. If we don't deal with it seriously this time, and everyone will learn from Dongyang City to do things without telling the council, then will the council still exist?
Especially at this juncture of the expansion of the restricted area, the Parliament must maintain absolute majesty so that it can unite all urban areas to fight against the restricted area.
"The tomb keeper cannot be killed. Councilman Yang may not know the importance of the tomb keeper. He hides many secrets, even related to the formation of the restricted area."
Xu Han said calmly, "You can ask Lu Zhan, the person in charge of our No. 3 City, about this. I believe he has a better understanding of the tomb keeper than I do."
"It's about the formation of the restricted area..." Yang Buwei's expression changed and he asked, "Is it reliable?"
This is undoubtedly a crucial matter, and he has reason to confirm the authenticity of this matter as soon as possible and report to Parliament in a timely manner.
After all, one of the meanings of the existence of the Parliament is to explore where the restricted area comes from. If we understand the truth behind the restricted area, we may be able to solve the restricted area from the source.
"It's absolutely true." Xu Han nodded, "That may have something to do with a disappearing era... I wonder if the parliament is interested?"
She looked at Yang Buwei's expression.
Except for some information that Lu Zhan himself could not understand, he had reported all the information about the tomb keeper to the meeting hall, including what happened on the Hidden Beast Mountain the night before.
In the process, he repeatedly emphasized the horror of the tomb keeper and hoped that the council would act with caution.
However, it seems that the council has no intention of changing the plan, and even encouraged the council to support their plan.
"The era that disappeared..."
Yang Buwei sighed and did not answer, but asked, "The Gravekeeper is an S-level special taboo after all. Don't underestimate him. Are you really sure you can control him?"
Xu Han could tell that Yang Buwei was moved by the value of the tomb keeper, so he decided to wait and see for the time being.
"Yes, we have implanted a special chip into the tombkeeper's brain."
"You are very brave, but this thing is not safe." Yang Buwei shook his head.
A smile appeared on Xu Han's face: "Of course it's more than that. We found a girl not long ago. I heard that she has a close relationship with the tombkeeper..."
She played a three-dimensional video again, showing a transparent glass vessel with many lines connected to the outside.
Inside the vessel is a sleeping little girl.
"I heard her name is Mu."
…
At this time, Bai Mo was sitting in an old train. He clenched his chin and looked out the window. It was dark outside and he couldn't see clearly what was there.
The furnishings in the carriage were very simple, and there were only a few scattered people sitting on the seats. They all had their eyes closed and were concentrating, not daring to look out the window like him.
"It's so dark," he whispered.
"It's indeed dark, but I advise you to stop looking out the window."
A calm voice came from beside him. Bai Mo turned his head and saw a pale man yawning and walking over, and sat down next to him very familiarly.
He was wearing a helmet with a camera on his head, which looked like some kind of video camera.
"Why?" Bai Mo asked curiously.
"Haven't you heard that sentence..." The man pretended to be mysterious, "When you stare into the abyss, the abyss is also staring at you."
"Then I won't watch..."
Bai Mo was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Did you also go to the amusement park?"
"That's right." The man yawned and pointed to the camera on his helmet, "It's mainly live broadcast."
"Live broadcast in an amusement park?" Bai Mo asked curiously, "Are you an anchor?"
"That's right. I don't know how many people are staring at my live broadcast room right now." The man smiled, showing his white teeth, "You can call me prisoner."
"Hello, my name is Bai Mo." Bai Mo said, "Prisoner...is that your stage name?"
"Of course, only fools use their real names here." The prisoner laughed.
Bai Mo looked dull, is this guy scolding me...
The prisoner seemed to have just realized this, but instead of restraining his smile, he laughed even more.
The other people in the carriage seemed to be disturbed by his laughter and frowned, but after seeing the prisoner's dress, none of them spoke.
The reward announced by the program has already stated that it is best not to bring a camera when entering the restricted area this time, because it is very dangerous and will increase the probability of death.
Therefore, the shooting task will be handed over to some death row prisoners.
They are just dying people, they don't have to argue with a death row prisoner over trivial matters.
There were a total of forty-six people on the train this time. At this moment, everyone except Bai Mo was in a very nervous mood.
There are extraordinary people, and most of them are ordinary people.
