"Eh, how come you can access the Virtual Warehouse?" Qing Chen asked in confusion, "Aren't you guys at the bottom of society? How can you afford the Virtual Warehouse?"
Xiao Hei explained, "We are slaves. Our ancestors committed crimes, so their descendants are slaves. The Kingdom organization bought me from the Slave Master to do hard labor in the Aerial Fortress. Before coming here, my Slave Master was quite fond of the Superconductor World. He would have us twelve slaves enter the Virtual Warehouse to obtain some materials for him or enter game instances to help him break speedrun records... These things have rankings, and the top hundred can earn money."
Qing Chen thought to himself, isn't this low-cost power leveling and farming, just providing a meal is enough.
Xiao Hei continued, "If we failed to gather materials or got too little, we would be beaten up."
As he spoke, he took off his shirt, and Qing Chen saw his chest and back were covered with whip marks.
