This was what happened at the start after the game merged. The government bought tokens from some players at a low price in exchange for their safety, which they never got.

If a player refused, there would be a new body lying around in a dark corner after a few days.

They were not the same government as before, as the leaders changed to those who did not care about normal cultivators and instead exploited them till death.

This is also why they had a bad reputation after the game merged.
