Kaidan Game Train: Abide Rule or Die!-Chapter 2185: The Role of Anchors

Zheng Yuci had no anchor, and his childhood personality couldn’t steal materialized items from his Spiritual World.

Dou Shengnan had reached the level where she could use anchors, yet easily lost a piece of materialized item.

What’s going on here? Is it because Zheng Yuci’s evolution direction is different, or is there a problem with Dou Shengnan’s evolution... Or does the Super Props play a role in this?

After pondering for a moment, Xu Huo asked again, "Did you place an anchor in Dou Shengnan’s Spiritual World?"

The childhood personality nodded. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Xu Huo exhaled slightly and then asked, "Who else have you seen that can place anchors?"

The childhood personality stopped what he was doing and his gaze fell on his book.

The White Shelled Book remained open; the passage about "anchor" had disappeared, replaced by another three characters:

"Teacher Zhang."

Though he had anticipated it, Xu Huo couldn’t help but feel a sinking feeling when he truly saw this answer.

The more he explored Doctor Zhang, the more powerful he seemed. Of course, if Doctor Zhang didn’t understand "anchor," the childhood personality couldn’t know about "anchor" either. Before this, none of the Spirit Evolution materials he encountered involved "anchor" or similar concepts.

It’s possible that there are people who know, but he hasn’t come in contact with them, yet those who can reach the level of casting an anchor in the Spiritual World must be extremely rare, as renowned as Dou Shengnan, who could only use it in critical moments.

However, Dou Shengnan’s "anchor" is a deadly trump card, while the childhood personality’s anchor seems to be just an "anchor."

Xu Huo could sense that it was during the confrontation with Dou Shengnan that the childhood personality used the spiritual power he left behind, not a particularly unique trump card, just something that could blend into the opponent’s spiritual power and approach the target more unnoticeably.

Naturally, this was something he couldn’t achieve at the moment.

But from this incident, he understood another issue.

Doctor Zhang taught many children; there were many antisocial personalities like Xue Lang. Even if he cultivated them according to his own ideas during the education process, these people might not all listen to him as they grow up. But from the Wisdom Sphere provided by Chang Bei, it seems some people continue to work for him. How does he make them listen?

Now there seems to be an answer.

If Doctor Zhang’s "anchor" could persist for a long time, with control and in large numbers, these people would still "serve the master" after becoming strong.

This question then extended to another—did Doctor Zhang leave an "anchor" in his own Spiritual World?

Seeing through his thoughts, the childhood personality provided the answer: "An anchor is only useful for those with weak wills."

The childhood Xu Huo still looked down on Xue Lang, paused, and then added, "If Teacher Zhang anchors you, I’ll find it."

Xu Huo smiled slightly, saying, "The Goddess in the Goddess Replica is different from humans; it should be much stronger than Dou Shengnan."

The Holy Land and the five Satellite Cities are estimated to be under its control, such a large range of time has long been beyond human reach.

The childhood personality earnestly nodded.

"This thing," Xu Huo looked again at the black liquid on the table that had returned to tile form, "although anchors cannot be controlled by the person after leaving the body, will they dissipate after the person dies?"

The childhood personality thought for a moment, then answered, "I’ve never seen Doctor Zhang die, so I don’t know."

This passage made Xu Huo silent for a bit, then he said, "Looks like using it as a weather vane is impossible, but that’s okay." After all, he still had Dou Shengnan’s Props; once a person dies, Props naturally become ownerless items.

"Let it be."

The "anchor" is still somewhat distant from him, but he finally understood what the situation was. In addition, Dou Shengnan’s eye Super Props are also very strange. They don’t seem to be surgically implanted under the skin in a deliberate defensive effort like other players, but rather coexist with the eye in some form. This has already deviated from the normal scope, and the childhood personality oddly only stole materialized items from her Spiritual World, regardless of whether it relates to Super Props, Dou Shengnan’s Spirit Evolution doesn’t hold reference value.

Perhaps next time they meet, her strength will be reduced because of the loss of Super Props.

Suspending for a while, Xu Huo started feeling a splitting headache again, exited the Spiritual World, and successfully laid back down to sleep after purchasing several spiritual defense Props and instruments on the bounty platform.

This time nothing came to disturb him, and when he awoke, the sky had already turned dark.

The room next door was still empty; Xu Huo took out the communicator and called Huang Mao.

Huang Mao was having a good time, and connecting the call came with a series of screams, "You’re awake? How did you rest? Do you want to join us?"

It was already late; Xu Huo said, "Aren’t you planning to sleep?"

"One big advantage of evolution is turning the daily sleep routine into sleeping once every three days. It’s a good time everywhere; what’s the point of sleeping?" Huang Mao laughed heartily, "If you don’t come, fine. We plan to play until tomorrow morning!"

How long he plays has nothing to do with Xu Huo, "I hope you can maintain that energy when you enter the Divine Temple tomorrow."

After confirming that A Hai was fine, Xu Huo hung up and prepared to go out to eat something.

Just as he sat in the restaurant and picked up his chopsticks, a group of people—more accurately, a group of Believers—emerged from different directions and dispersed around him, seemingly intent on watching him, their eyes not very friendly.

"I thought the Goddess’s Believers were all peaceful. Didn’t expect there were aggressive factions," Xu Huo looked towards the two players sitting inside the restaurant, "Are you looking for me for something?"

Unexpectedly, they weren’t there for the Inquiry Hall matter during the day, but for A Hai.

"Are you taking him as a hostage?" one of them asked.

"Why think like that?" Xu Huo countered, "You can tell from my appearance that I was severely injured before and it was A Hai who helped me. He said he wanted to go to the Holy Land, so I brought him here."

Ordinary people in this instance aren’t very fearful when facing Outer Zone players, not just because of the firm belief instilled by religious faith but also because the Goddess can truly protect them, be it in Purple Lake City or other cities, it’s rare to see people from this area and Outer Zone players together.

His demeanor was too sincere; instead, it was unconvincing. The player then warned, "I’ll be watching you. Don’t try to hurt anyone in this sector."

Xu Huo turned his head to carefully scrutinize the other, "Your appearance slightly differs from people in this area."

People in this area mostly appear androgynous, plus with the existence of dual-gender individuals, they wear "male" or "female" badges for differentiation. Compared to them, players appear distinctly male or female, unlike the local people.

"Are you Outer Zone players?"
