Rui gained a deeper understanding of the mechanism of the Gu and the engineering of the death and chaos that went on.
An incentive structure.
A special environment to create and reinforce a psychological barrier.
And a high mortality rate.
These were the only three 'institutions' of the Gu.
And they were enough.
The deeper they went, the greater the violence.
Beyond the outer ring of Gu rituals for newcomers were even more Gu rituals comprised of survivors. These were people who had survived the first round of Gu rituals and were more physically able and powerful. Those that emerged from them were even stronger and would face off against their peers who had also survived two rounds of the gu rituals.
Rui had wanted to shoot to the very epicenter of the Gu in one go, but alas, Amare was starting to reach her stamina limits.
