Chapter 408:Underworld Villa

Wei Huo had stayed in the library and almost never left until Wu Bin came over and said that he had found something weird.

Wei Huo asked, “What did you find?”

Wu Bin replied, “I’ve been wandering around many places in the Underworld recently. I realized that the Underworld is no different from a normal real world. Of course, I can’t enter the 18th level of Hell because I’m not a staff member. However, I found a weird building in the suburbs. According to my observation, people will occasionally come and go there. Those people are all unemployed. There’s also 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 limited to teachers, students, and laborers. Besides, their daily necessities are all sent from another world. Under the circumstances, why are there idle people? Why are people farming?”

Wei Huo said, “Continue.”

Wu Bin said with certainty, “There are many people like us… No, there are many people like you in the Underworld, Master. They seem to be planning something.”

Wei Huo asked, “Have you seen any policemen in the Underworld after wandering around for so long?”

Wu Bin shook his head. “No.”

Wei Huo closed his 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 to go to the real world and catch ferocious people.

The ferocious creatures here included powerful humans, ghosts, and creatures.

Wei Huo had not experienced anything like being sucked in by Darkness. He had not found any relevant information in the library either. Generally speaking, Mythical creatures were invincible. However, there was another thing in this world called laws. They were existences stronger than Mythical creatures. Even Mythical creatures had to surrender to them.

Simply put, although viruses broke through the isolation of software, they could never jump out of computers. No matter how powerful a virus was, it would only jump between the binary levels of 0s and 1s. As long as the power source was removed, it would be nothing.

Wei Huo stood up. He was interested in the villa that Wu Bin had mentioned. There were no policemen in this world. Everyone was bound by the Rules. Although they could eat, rest, exercise, and have fun every day, they could not do anything out of line, as they were bound by the Rules. This villa and the fields were suspicious.

Wei Huo followed Wu Bin to the suburbs. The suburbs were different from reality. Real suburbs were either neighborhoods with fields or grass.

However, this was a dark red land. Occasionally, a few withered trees would grow on the ground. Human faces would gradually grow on these withered trees, making them look very weird.

When he arrived, Wei Huo saw the villa Wu Bin was talking about. It was a three-story villa that was similar to an ordinary villa in reality.

Wei Huo observed the building carefully. Because the building was enveloped by Rule Power, Wei Huo could not scan it with his mental strength. That would expose him easily.

That was why he had not used his mental strength to scan the library either. The books in the library were protected by Rule Power.

Wei Huo checked it carefully and said, “You can either use the key to open this gate or break 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 here.

The field behind the villa was the same. If one was not a Rule-level expert, it was impossible to open up a field on this dark red land. It was even debatable whether vegetables could be grown.

Wei Huo and Wu Bin waited there. A few hours later, the door of the villa opened and a 27-year-old man walked out. He was wearing a farmer’s outfit and was carrying a hoe. It seemed like he was planning to farm.

However, he was stunned when he saw Wei Huo. He then asked Wei Huo, “Who are you?”

Wei Huo said, “I’m a student at the school. I have a question to ask. Are you the owner of this villa?”

The man said, “Yes, this villa is mine. What can I do for you?”

Wei Huo’s eyes narrowed slightly. He was checking the man’s background, but the man’s strength was only at the Rare rank. However, the farming tools in his hands carried Rule Power. The farming tools were not divine weapons, but they were already covered by Rule Power. Perhaps it was because of the Rule Power that the hoe could develop such farmland.

Wei Huo said, “I’m just curious. I’ve never seen a field in the Underworld, so I decided to come and take a look.”

The man smiled when he heard that. “That’s common. People often ask about this. However, the story behind this field and this villa is very old. Do you want to hear it?”

Wei Huo nodded. The man then said, “In that case, follow me to the field. It’s time to weed again. Help me and I’ll tell you this story.”

Upon hearing the man’s words, Wu Bin seriously suspected that this person was deliberately putting on this act and using stories to deceive labor force.

However, Wei Huo had already walked over. The man led the two of them to the world. The field was not big. It was at most 10 square meters in size. One person could farm it completely.

The man left the field and started cutting the grass. Surprisingly, the fields in the Underworld could also grow grass.

Wei Huo started helping the man weed the field. Wu Bin had no choice but to follow him.

As he was weeding, the man said, “My father left this villa and the fields to me. Yes… To be precise, that should be my adoptive father. It was probably when I was six or seven years old. After leaving this villa and the fields, my father left completely. I don’t know where he went.”

Wei Huo asked, “Didn’t he tell you anything before he left?”

The man said, “Perhaps he said something, but it’s been a really long time. It’s been nearly 300 years. I can’t remember anything.”

Wei Huo asked, “Aren’t you going to the city to look for a job?”

The man’s expression changed a little. He said, “A job in the city… Are you talking about a job that can even confine one’s thoughts? Let me tell you something. You can’t learn from books. The Underworld has only been using people for work for less than 300 years.”

Wei Huo asked, “How did you know?”

The man’s eyes narrowed. He lifted his head and looked at the other two before saying, “My father was the previous King Yama!”
