For Lu Li, the information merchants hold is more important than their goods.
"Why have the exorcists disappeared?"
Merchants are closely tied to exorcists. The merchants' slumber indicates that exorcists have indeed vanished.
But it's difficult to understand why they didn't leave a legacy, like a refuge.
Allowing their heritage to be broken?
Perhaps because contribution points have become merely numbers to Lu Li, the merchant stops discussing the price of information: "A curse."
A curse named knowledge coils around all exorcists like a venomous snake.
Knowledge becomes more malicious, dirtier. The exorcists who held the most of it either plunged into the abyss or slipped into madness overnight. Even those apprentice exorcists and scholars were engulfed in the delirium of low sanity, dying painfully in the turmoil.
Thus, exorcists took their curtain call in the Weird Times, and even now, people avoid discussing knowledge due to the lingering poison.
