Chapter 315: Chapter 304: Beat into Autism and Become a Fat Otaku (First Update) Chapter 315: Chapter 304: Beat into Autism and Become a Fat Otaku (First Update) The city of the breeders was much larger and much more intricate than Jiang Qiao had imagined… A directionally-challenged player ran into the entrance of the breeders’ city, and Jiang Qiao felt that if he didn’t teleport, he probably wouldn’t think of leaving.

This city’s style felt somewhat like a sanctuary of magic technology?

The surrounding walls all emitted a kind of magic inscription that Jiang Qiao couldn’t understand, the power radiating from these machines resembled magic power more than electricity.

“Do you keep these life forms in captivity?”

Jiang Qiao stood above a glass floor, beneath which was an ecosystem composed of grass and blue sky. In this ecosystem, Jiang Qiao could see some Magic Thieves living… what could theoretically be considered a carefree life.

“I wouldn’t say captivity, as the ultimate goal of captivity is to profit from the captive, from your understanding it’s like slaughtering for meat, harvesting fur… We treat the organic life forms here as masters, they chose to live here, never imprisoned,” the mother explained to Jiang Qiao.

“Is this some kind of maid-ism? Or something… It’s really… somewhat frightening.”

Jiang Qiao looked through the glass at the ecosystem built by the breeders below, the scenery in the ecosystem indeed looked quite appealing, completely devoid of the conflict and chaos on Biland Island.

The living creatures in this place led a peaceful life under the guidance of the breeders, the advantage being they didn’t need to do anything, the disadvantage also being they didn’t need to do anything.

Felt a bit like… the monkeys kept in a zoo?

“If the Divine Spirits came here, surely some of them would smash this place.” Jiang Qiao did not wish to make any judgments on the actions of the breeders.

But surely the players had thoughts, in fact, the more beautiful things were, the more players wanted to destroy them, and looking at the present scenery, it all seemed like these mechanical beings had imprisoned the people below in a…phony utopia?

“I don’t understand why the Divine Spirits would destroy this place, all the organic life forms here can leave the breeding ground according to their own will, we have never imprisoned them.”

The mother seemed to believe this approach couldn’t convince Jiang Qiao, so she switched to another method…

“A small portion of the Magic Thieves who grew tired of the struggle and danger on Black Tide Island came to us seeking help, their companions also considered us extremely dangerous, but now they have all settled down here,” said the mother.

“Uh… that’s the end of your backstory description, you should perfect some systems within your main city now, surely you have facilities here for cultivating dragon eggs, right?”

“The answer is yes.” The mother led Jiang Qiao deeper into the breeding ground.

Jiang Qiao indeed felt lucky that players were a bunch of energy beings, if a human with actual physiological needs came here, they’d probably also be turned by these breeders into do-nothing homebodies.

But if Jiang Qiao wanted to delve deep into the main questline of the breeding grounds, he would probably end up leading the captive life forms in rebellion against these mechanical ‘maids’.

Jiang Qiao didn’t plan to release such a main quest because his target were the Divine Fragments on Black Tide Island. The breeders, the Divine Alliance, and the Plane Pirates just had to not hinder Jiang Qiao from killing or pursuing Magic Thieves, and that would be enough.

“I don’t know if you mechanical beings genuinely find fattening up couch potatoes amusing or if there’s some plot. While collaborating with the Divine Spirits, could you possibly keep it hidden from the Divine Spirits as much as possible?”

Jiang Qiao had set up a series of functional NPCs above the breeding grounds, but for now, the mother wouldn’t allow Jiang Qiao into the lower ecosystem. If the Divine Spirits came here, they would likely need to enter under the surveillance of the breeders.

“Plot?” The mother couldn’t parse the meaning of Jiang Qiao’s words.

“Never mind, how many Magic Thieves seeking refuge with you? And how many on this island?”

Jiang Qiao’s eyes observed the ecosystem below, he had already spotted more than twenty Magic Thieves, all of them friendly units.

Because these Magic Thieves had grown so fat that they could roll on the ground, although their levels were between forty and fifty, they were all elite monsters.

Yet for the saints to bother these Magic Thieves who had given up fighting and were content being useless, Jiang Qiao himself felt it was quite inconsiderate.

“One hundred twenty-seven people, a small part of them are infants abandoned by their tribes due to their lack of fighting talent, but here they don’t need to fight, nothing can measure their worth, and another part are Magic Thieves tired of struggling, who mostly came here to seclude themselves,” the mother explained.

“The total number of Magic Thieves on the island, according to our drones’ reconnaissance, stands at about four hundred, and they belong to the tribes of two Island Masters,” the mother continued to share the intelligence she knew with Jiang Qiao.

“Only four hundred?” Jiang Qiao had thought the number of Magic Thieves on this island exceeded ten thousand, but if there were only four hundred… No, if they were all lord-level creatures, it would still be very tricky.

“The Magic Thieves possess the power to control the dragon-like life forms on the island; one tribe cooperating with the abyss has gained… rebirth abilities. In the past, the Obliteration Legion was once able to suppress the existence of the Magic Thieves, even driving them into a desperate situation. Now, they can even counterattack the Obliteration Legion and attack our breeding facilities,” she added.

The mother’s voice bore not a hint of emotion, yet Jiang Qiao could still sense the concern in her words.

“Rebirth abilities? And the Magic Thieves can revive as well, interesting… By the way, have you ever tried to convince those Magic Thieves to join your faction? Like the group down there.”

Jiang Qiao really thought the lifestyle under the ecosystem was quite comfortable, with everything one could want to eat or play with, no worries at all each day, just enjoying the service of the group of mechanical maids.

“Our drones have tried to persuade those Magic Thieves, but they all stated they would rather die than… be bred by us as livestock, although we did not treat them as livestock,” the breeder said.

“Oh? Is that so… it might be that they see fighting with the Magic Thieves and other creatures on the Black Tide Island as still hopeful, and it won’t be long before quite a few Magic Thieves come to join you.”

Jiang Qiao, watching the Magic Thieves who had turned into the fat house below, stood up and said to the breeder.

“Reason?”

“Just beat them into autism, their rebirth capabilities are indeed troublesome for the saints, but there’s more than one way to break a person aside from death. When those guys become autistic, the only way to stop the saints from continuing to chase them, I’m afraid, is by joining this breeding facility.”

Jiang Qiao still had no concept of the combat effectiveness of the Magic Thieves on Black Tide Island, but if Planar Pirates and the Alliance of Gods were taking such big risks to seek help from the saints, it meant the saints could have a game-changing impact on the battlefield of Black Tide Island.

The Magic Thieves’ ability to revive was also perfectly suited to fulfill the players’ need to repeatedly farm monsters, as players are a group of tireless, unfeeling, relentless farming machines with no hunger for food or emotion.

If one kill couldn’t take down those Magic Thieves, then kill them ten times; after all, Magic Thieves are emotional beings, and Jiang Qiao could envision the scene where the players drove them to mental breakdown.

‘I would rather die than be treated like pigs by those robots!’

‘Delicious indeed.’

Jiang Qiao already had the Magic Thieves’ dialogues floating in his mind.

“Agent, what you mentioned is the ideal situation, but the current situation on Black Tide Island is not optimistic. The Magic Thieves attacked our breeding facility a few days ago… The Sealed Island Master in the facility was stolen by those Magic Thieves. If possible, please prevent the Magic Thieves from receiving aid from that Island Master; otherwise, they will take control of all native life forms on Black Tide Island!”

The mother gave Jiang Qiao a mission critical to the outcome of the battle of Black Tide Island.

“Leave it all to me; you just need to focus on maintaining the saints’ favor,” he said.

Jiang Qiao glanced at the time; it was already nine o’clock in the morning the next day, the time when the Black Tide Island expansion should be opened.
