Wei Huo had been in the library and had almost never left until Wu Bin found him and told him that he had discovered something strange.
Wei Huo asked, "What did you discover?"
Wu Bin replied, "During this period of time, I have wandered around many places in the Underworld and found that this Underworld is no different from the normal real world. Of course, because I am not a staff member, I can't enter the 18 levels of hell. However, I found a strange building in the suburbs. According to my observation, there are occasionally people coming in and out of there. Those people are all unemployed, and there is a field around the building."
Wei Huo put down his book and lifted his head.
Wu Bin said, "Isn't that unreasonable? The ordinary people living in the Underworld are only teachers, students, and workers. Besides, their daily necessities are sent from another world. Why are there idle people under such circumstances? Why are there still people farming? "
Wei Huo said, "Continue."
Wu Bin said with certainty, "People like us. No, they are people who can break the rules like you, Master. There are many such people in the Underworld. These people seem to be plotting something."
Wei Huo asked, "You've been wandering around for so long. Have you seen any policemen in the Underworld?"
Wu Bin shook his head. "No."
Wei Huo closed the book. According to his understanding, there were special teams in the Underworld that were in charge of combat. However, most of these teams had left the Underworld and gone to the real world to capture evil people.
The evildoers here included powerful people, ghosts, and living creatures.
He did not find any relevant information in the library either. Generally speaking, Mythical creatures were invincible existences. However, there was another thing in this world called laws. These were existences stronger than Mythical creatures. Even Mythical creatures had no choice but to surrender. Wei Huo had no choice but to accept the fact that he had been 'secretly' sucked in.
Simply put, although viruses broke through the isolation of the software, they could never jump out of the computer. No matter how powerful a virus was, it could only jump between 0 and 1. As long as the power was removed, it would be nothing. Wei Huo stood up.
Wei Huo stood up. He was interested in the villa that Wu Bin was talking about. There were no police in this world because everyone was bound by rules. Although they could eat, sleep, and have fun every day, they could not do anything out of line because they were bound by rules. Therefore, the villa and the field were very suspicious. Wei Huo stood up.
Wei Huo followed Wu Bin to the suburbs. The suburbs were different from the suburbs in reality. The suburbs in reality were either fields or grasslands.
However, this was a dark red land. Occasionally, a few withered trees would grow on the ground. These withered trees would gradually grow human faces, which looked very strange.
After arriving, Wei Huo saw the villa that Wu Bin was talking about. It was a three-story villa, and its style was similar to an ordinary villa in reality.
Wei Huo observed the building carefully. As the building was wrapped in Rule Power, Wei Huo could not use his mental strength to scan it. That way, he could easily expose himself.
That was also why he did not use his mental strength to scan the library. The books in the library were protected by Rule Power.
Wei Huo took a closer look and said, "This door can either be opened with a key or broken through the Rule Power on the surface of the villa. However, I don't want to expose our identities."
Wei Huo lifted his head. The sky was still pitch-black.
This world was filled with Rule Power. Even Legendary creatures were no different from ordinary people. Only Rule-level experts could ignore the rules and survive there.
The field behind the villa was the same. If one was not a Rule-level expert, it would be impossible to open up a field on this dark red land. It was not even certain if one could grow vegetables there.
Wei Huo and Wu Bin waited there. A few hours later, the door of the villa opened. A man who looked about 27 or 28 years old walked out. He was wearing a farmer's uniform and carrying a hoe. He seemed to be planning to farm in the fields. Wei Huo and Wu Bin waited there.
However, he was stunned when he saw Wei Huo. He then asked Wei Huo, "May I know who you are?"
Wei Huo said, "I'm a student of the school. I have a question for you. May I know if you're the owner of this villa?"
The man said, "Yes, this villa is mine. What can I do for you?" Wei Huo's eyes narrowed.
Wei Huo's eyes focused. He was checking the man's background, but the man's strength was only at the Rare rank. However, the farming tool in his hand carried the Rule Power. The farming tool was not a divine weapon, but it was already covered by the Rule Power. Perhaps it was because of this Rule that the hoe could clear the farmland.
Wei Huo said, "I'm just curious. I've never seen a field in the Underworld, so I plan to take a look."
The man smiled when he heard that. "This is a common thing. People often ask about this. However, the story about this field and this villa is a long time ago. Do you want to hear it?"
Wei Huo nodded. Then, the man said, "In that case, follow me to the field. It's time to weed again. If you help me, I'll tell you this story."
Upon hearing the man's words, Wu Bin seriously suspected that the man had deliberately put on an act and used a story to cheat him of labor.
However, Wei Huo had already walked over. The man led the two of them to the field. The field was not big. It was at most 10 by 10 square meters. One person could farm it.
The man got into the field and started weeding. Surprisingly, grass could grow in the fields of the Underworld.
Wei Huo started helping the man weed. Wu Bin had no choice but to work.
As he was weeding, the man said, "My father left this villa and field to me. Yes … To be precise, it should be my adoptive father. It was probably when I was six or seven years old. After leaving this villa and field behind, my father left. I don't know where he went."
Wei Huo asked, "Didn't he say anything to you before he left?"
The man said, "Perhaps he said something, but it's been so long. It's been almost 300 years. I can't remember it clearly."
Wei Huo asked, "Aren't you going to the city to find a job?"
The man's expression changed as he said, "A job in the city … Are you talking about the kind of job where even one's mind is imprisoned? Let me tell you something that you can't learn from books. The Underworld has only been using people like this for less than 300 years. "
Wei Huo asked, "How do you know?"
