# Chapter 1401: The Reason for Fighting
When they said "snatching people," they naturally weren't referring to ordinary workers or employees working in the New District Government City, but rather the clones secretly cultivated by the government.
When the city was attacked, the clone underground factory, as the most heavily protected location, was guarded by a considerable number of advanced players. After dealing with those robots, the players began arranging for the clones to retreat.
But such a large number of clones couldn't be transported away by train. They could only be temporarily transferred to another relatively safe location using a large-scale space teleportation device. However, this type of device took a while to activate, and once started, it was impossible not to attract attention—the usual excuse given was factory operations. In today's environment, there shouldn't have been too much fluctuation either, but unfortunately, they ran into the Ya Clan people who were searching everywhere for their kin.
The clones in the New District Government City weren't uniform. That is to say, like Dr. Duo Er, they had prepared multiple clones for a single person, ranging in age from young to old. During the transfer process, these people were all in a comatose state, with numbered metal collars around their necks.
One major problem with cultivating clones was that they were more fragile than naturally conceived humans, yet they required the same amount of growth time as normal humans. Looking at Dr. Duo Er, one could see that such clone cultivation actually had little value.
But it was different in District 023. Upon seeing those clones, some Ya Clan members immediately realized why District 023 had been offering high bounties for them, insisting on capturing them alive or dead. Why all the Ya Clan members found in District 023 cities were eventually transported to the New District Government City. What exactly were they doing with the Ya Clan people...
All of this now had an answer.
To reduce costs, the New District Government needed the Ya Clan's rapid growth genes. They didn't care whether the clones had long lifespans—if they could cultivate one, they could cultivate a batch. What mattered was that they could grow up quickly!
In their fury, the Ya Clan members launched a suicide attack, detonating the space teleportation device and causing that massive explosion just now. After the initial blast, the Ya Clan side also suffered considerable losses. But the tacit understanding cultivated over years allowed them to make the safest arrangements without prior discussion. One group immediately withdrew and scattered into the city, while the remaining people began to surround and kill those clones.
However, compared to the New District Government side, the Ya Clan were far too weak. In just a few minutes of combat, they had lost nearly half their people. Some, forced into desperation, even resorted to embracing their enemies in mutual destruction.
This didn't change anything. The New District Government players began rapidly harvesting the Ya Clan members. Before the new teleportation device could be activated, the government side planned to clear out all obstacles first.
Just when the situation was completely one-sided, the large-scale space teleportation device suddenly failed.
"What's going on?" The leading player demanded of the person responsible for activating the device. "Is the machine broken?"
The player in charge panicked and quickly checked the device, then said, "The device has been interfered with and is disabled..."
"How is that possible?" The leading player pushed aside a Ya Clan member charging at him and returned to the device's control panel. "Wasn't this large-scale device equipped with the highest level of anti-interference core? It wasn't affected earlier either."
If even an ultra-large-scale space teleportation device capable of directly crossing different district spaces could be so easily interfered with, then the Game Government might as well stop doing business.
The anti-interference core did exist, but it had now failed. And it wasn't just the teleportation device that had failed—all the robots in the new city had once again entered a suspended state. This meant that control of the entire city was no longer in the hands of outsiders!
"Beep! Beep!" At this moment, the controllers worn by the New District Government players kept emitting reconnection prompts.
In that instant, the players in the new city all thought a turning point had arrived, especially those surrounding the factory.
Some of them had already rushed toward the explosion site, while the rest had prepared for the worst and were ready to detonate the pharmaceutical factory—the mayor had already started this. Regardless of how many among them were unwilling, the act of shooting down the aircraft earlier was no different from a declaration of war. Their families were already doomed.
But now the robots were back in their hands. The player in charge of command quickly adjusted the strategy, sending some players through the blockade barrier into the factory.
However, no sooner had they stepped through the main entrance than the robots still inside the factory surrounded them.
"What the hell is this? Are they messing with us?!" A player angrily smashed his controller.
This was also what the Gentleman player wanted to ask. He had thought Xu Huo wouldn't dare to bring out the super item again, but the other party had done exactly that.
The staff notation sometimes gathered in the air, sometimes separated on the ground, moving like living light and shadow throughout every corner of this sealed room.
On the other side, the tangents also spread throughout the air, not only repeatedly destroying the staff notation but also forcing back the Gentleman player who kept trying to close the distance with Xu Huo, maintaining a certain spatial gap between the two sides for a tug-of-war.
The Gentleman player, wary of Xu Huo's mental power interference, had long since used corresponding interference devices. As for the space power, it couldn't pose too great a threat to him for now—appropriate props could break it.
Mixed with the power of other props, using the staff notation as the main attack method, the Gentleman player pursued relentlessly. However, he was still mindful of the environment here and didn't fight to the death.
Xu Huo, on the other hand, was less concerned. The tangents destroyed a large number of cultivation beds, and those colorful fungi began to volatilize, quickly filling the entire sealed space.
Both of them were fully equipped in protective suits, but the Gentleman player had also wrapped himself in a defense barrier from the very beginning, completely isolating these toxic substances.
When the visibility began to blur, he took out a mini trumpet and aimed it at Xu Huo, unleashing his singing voice!
Although Xu Huo had guessed he would use this move, he hadn't expected the tenor's sound waves to have such destructive power. Not only did they continuously shatter several layers of "Flower Bloom" barriers, but the excessively strong impact even pressed him against the metal wall behind him!
At the same time, the Gentleman player also teleported right in front of him, raising his hand to sweep toward Xu Huo's neck. Several lines peeled away from the air and stabbed directly at his throat!
The staff notation clanged against the "Inviolable Domain," producing a ringing sound. Xu Huo used a prop to send the opponent fifty meters away, and while restraining his movements with space power, he quickly used the black blade to open a door in the wall and ran out!
Breaking free from the restraint of space power wasn't difficult. The Gentleman player vented his frustration by turning the metal wall with the door into a sieve with his lines, sending the staff notation ahead to search for the target. But when he passed through the door, what greeted him was a pitch-black space.
His expression changed slightly. Before he could move further, two attacks came at him from front and back, aimed at his forehead and back respectively!
