1617 Sneak Attack
"Not only that, after you obtain the holy weapon, you can control the rift, right? I also received a mission to completely seal the rift, so I need your help later. After obtaining the holy sword, help me temporarily control the rift. I'll seal the rift."
"The aura under the rift is extremely evil. Sealing it is also my wish."
Viona did not suspect anything and nodded at Fang Heng.
With absolute strength, she was sure that Fang Heng had been unknowingly influenced by the spiritual suggestion of the Piety skill.
For a moment, she even thought that it might not be a bad idea to keep Fang Heng.
No!
Fang Heng was a huge threat!
He was too terrifying! She had to get rid of him!
But not now.
Fang Heng was her bait to lure the person behind the demonic seed.
The bait would lose its value when she found the mastermind.
Viona followed Fang Heng and slowly walked toward the holy weapon in the center of the cave. Her eyes turned cold again.
Fang Heng stopped at the edge of the Holy Light's area and took out the sealing scroll and the box containing the Melting Fire Troll Overlord's heart.
"I'm ready. We can start now."
Viona didn't suspect anything.
Even without Fang Heng, as long as she controlled the holy weapon, she could still temporarily suppress the aura leaking from the shady line rift with her ability.
In the worst-case scenario, she would have to put the holy weapon back.
Viona continued to walk forward.
She easily passed through the area enveloped by the Holy Light.
As Viona approached it, the great holy sword opened up the inner shield of the concealment and the shield slowly caved in.
Viona went nearer to the great holy sword and slowly reached out to touch it.
Swoosh!!
The moment she came into contact with the holy great sword, Viona's strength soared again!
Terrifying holy ripples spread out in all directions with Viona as the center!
Ji Xiaobo stared at Viona with unease.
Viona's strength had increased tremendously after she touched the holy weapon, the great holy sword!
Ji Xiaobo looked anxiously at Fang Heng, blinking at him.
Hurry up and do it!
He could not hold on anymore!
Hurry up!
Looking at Viona, her Saintess' inheritance must have awakened under the stimulation of the great holy sword!
Seeing that Fang Heng was still standing there, Ji Xiaobo was so anxious that he was about to explode.
What was Boss Fang Heng doing?!
Was he trying to lure a monster?
There was a joke in the Necromancer Association that Fang Heng was a spy sent by the holy faction.
Was it true then?
Fang Heng completely ignored the anxious Ji Xiaobo and stared at Viona.
Just a little longer!
The more Viona's Saintess strength awakened, the higher his mission completion rate would be! The rewards after the seal would be better!
Furthermore, Viona had yet to control the great holy sword fully.
"Whoosh! Swoosh…!!!"
Viona's golden hair fluttered in the wind, and her eyes were serious and solemn.
The holy ripples that seeped out of her body became stronger and stronger!
Under Viona's control, the great holy sword gradually condensed and shrank.
Similarly, under the stimulation of the holy weapon and the infusion of its power, her Saintess' inheritance was awakened once again!
She had obtained the recognition of the holy weapon!
Holy strength filled her body!
Viona felt as if she was bathed in Holy Light. She had never felt so powerful before.
"Ka…"
The golden holy sword had shrunk to less than two meters. Viona held the hilt tightly and lifted it from the ground!
"Phew!!"
Almost at the same time, the shady line aura that was originally suppressed by the seal was seeping out crazily!
"Ka ka ka ka…!"
The frozen earth around the rift was instantly covered in a layer of frost!
The space above the crack also distorted strangely!
As a large amount of ice-cold aura gushed out, the spatial distortion also attracted the surrounding objects!
Large chunks of ice-covered rocks were sucked into the distorted space. Then, they exploded and were sucked in!
"Buzz!!!"
Golden light once again bloomed from the holy weapon in Viona's hand!
Viona activated the holy sword's strength to stop the explosion of the shady line aura.
The shady line aura visible to the naked eye was immediately dispersed by the Holy Light aura released by Viona!
"An extremely icy cold aura."
Viona frowned.
The shady line aura that seeped out from the crack was more intense than she had expected.
The strength from the Saintess' inheritance had just awakened, and she could not control it completely. She immediately felt a huge pressure.
Viona shouted, "Fang Heng! I've already controlled it. Seal it now!"
"Good!"
Whoosh!
Fang Heng, who was standing behind Viona, replied. Two streaks of red appeared in his pupils.
It was now!
Everything was going according to his expectations!
He had been waiting for this moment!
Fang Heng's eyes were filled with the reflection of the scarlet moonlight.
A moon shadow appeared behind him.
[Hint: The player has used the skill-Everlasting Moon.]
[Hint: Detected that the player is currently in an intermediate sequence world…]
[Hint: Fusing with the current world. The player's skill form has changed. Fusing…]
[Hint: The player's current status has been detected-necromancy, skill fusion in progress…]
[Hint: The player's current environment has been detected. Skill fusion in progress…]
[Hint: The player and teammates have entered the state of reincarnation.]
[Hint: Everlasting Moon summoning skill: Fluid Giant-ice crystal.]
[Creature: Fluid Giant-ice crystal.]
Description: A product of a special gene breeding program. It is a fusion of a special ice soul, the undead, and bionic technology. It can only survive in low-temperature environments. It is completely destroyed because it is difficult to control. It can be fused into ice crystals. It has extremely strong vitality and destructive power. Its danger level is extremely high.
Additional skill: ???
The game notifications flashed past Fang Heng's eyes.
He directly used his ultimate skill!
While Viona was controlling the holy weapon to resist the crack, he would attack her when she least expected it!
Fang Heng was fully focused on controlling the operation of the Everlasting Moon skill. He did not have the energy to carefully read the skill description.
However, in the series of game notifications, he vaguely saw the words 'ice crystal'.
Good!
It was related to the ice element!
The last few times he had used the ultimate skill, Everlasting Moon, most of the skills were summoning-type and the summoned creatures were mostly related to the current world's environment and their own state.
Therefore, Fang Heng judged that there was a high probability that a summoned creature related to the aura of the shady line would appear when he used the Everlasting Moon skill this time.
In addition, he had switched his form to necromancy.
There was a high chance that the final creature was a combination of the undead and the aura of the shady line.
This creature could cooperate with the shady line aura that was constantly released from the source of the shady line, posing the greatest threat to Viona!
Chi, chi…
Everything was just as Fang Heng had expected!
Blue droplets of water were gradually forming on the frozen ground beside Viona.
It was only one-fifth the size of a fingernail.

1618 Giant
"Ka ka ka…"
What was that?!
Hearing the strange sound in her ear, Viona suddenly realized that something was wrong.
She glanced at Fang Heng from the corner of her eye and saw him standing there with a solemn expression.
She didn't suspect Fang Heng and thought that he was in trouble.
In the next second, the blue water droplets on the ground that had seeped out of the ice surface actually jumped up and pounced toward her like maggots attached to bones!
What was that?!
A strong sense of danger rose in Viona's heart. She immediately released a holy ripple!
Whoosh!
The golden light dissipated!
"Bang! Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang!!!"
The water droplets that were rushing towards Viona were shattered by the impact of the holy aura and exploded!
What the hell!
Viona didn't expect the surrounding temperature to drop a little after the water droplets exploded. At the same time, the area where the water droplets exploded was covered in a layer of ice-crystal white frost!
She was also in the area of the ice crystal explosion, and her shoulder was immediately covered in white frost!
The shady line aura!
It actually had the same attribute as the shady line aura!
Viona's expression changed slightly when she sensed the cold aura contained in the white frost.
The cold aura quickly spread and even began to hinder the circulation of the holy power in her body!
Viona's brows were tightly knitted together and she thought about how she could resolve the problem caused by the frost.
The holy aura flickered again, and the frost covering her body slowly melted under the infusion of holy power.
What was with these strange water droplets?
Was it an abnormal reaction after the shady line crack was unsealed?
Viona was bewildered.
Before she could sort her thoughts, more dense water droplets came out of the ice and pounced on her!
Not good!
Seeing this, Viona did not dare to use holy ripple to attack directly. Instead, she forcefully activated the holy defense shield!
"Buzz!!"
The golden shield was activated!
The water droplets quickly attached themselves to the holy defense shield.
Viona frowned.
The water droplets released an extremely cold aura that continuously corroded the holy shield she had released.
The holy power was being consumed rapidly!
Viona felt troubled.
She had awakened part of the Saintess' inheritance power, so she would not be so passive under normal circumstances.
However, her main focus was on controlling the holy artifact, the Voice of Heaven, to resist the cold aura that seeped out from the crack of the shady line!
She was being attacked from both sides.
Not good!
She might not be able to hold on for long.
"Fang Heng! Hurry!"
Viona shouted.
She still did not realize that these were all creatures summoned by Fang Heng.
Sensing that Fang Heng did not answer, Viona glanced behind her again. Fang Heng was still standing in the same spot as before. However, unlike before, the shadow of a blood-red moon appeared behind Fang Heng.
Viona saw the reflection and Fang Heng's calm face. She suddenly had a bad feeling from the bottom of her heart. Her pupils suddenly locked, and a terrifying thought rose in her mind.
Fang Heng!
He did it!
Could it be that he had summoned the ice crystal creature?
Could it be that he plotted everything?
Did he deliberately let her obtain the holy artifact and take advantage of the fact that she was distracted by the leakage of the shady line aura so that he could launch a fatal attack when she was at her weakest?
Thousands of thoughts flashed through Viona's mind.
How dare he?!
She had never thought that Fang Heng would attack her at this time. She couldn't understand why Fang Heng would choose this time!
If he really did not trust her, why did he undo the seal on her body and help her complete part of her soul awakening?
Wouldn't it be better to just make a move?
It was not logical!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!!
Dense water droplets gathered towards her!
They quickly condensed into a thin layer of water curtain around the holy barrier!
The water curtain even blocked Viona's vision!
More and more water droplets were forming on the frost-covered ground and ceiling of the cave.
Through the water curtain, Viona could only vaguely see Fang Heng's face.
"Why, Fang Heng? Don't you trust me?"
"I don't trust you. Besides, I've given you a chance. Don't worry, Viona. We'll meet again soon…"
Fang Heng said in a low voice. He pushed his mental power to the limit again, and the blood-red moonlight behind him gradually condense.
His spiritual power was rapidly consumed!
The strength of Viona's holy shield was stronger than Fang Heng had expected.
Fang Heng squeezed out the last of his spiritual power and pointed at Viona.
"Go!"
Viona immediately felt a sense of danger when Fang Heng pointed at her. The water droplets that enveloped the holy shield quickly fell and instantly condensed into a huge water giant creature in front of her!
As the water giant rose, it clenched its fist and threw a punch at Viona.
Not good!
"Boom!!!"
The Holy Light screen shook violently under the water giant's punch!
Viona's heart twitched violently.
"Bang!!!!"
After enduring it for an instant, the Holy Light barrier exploded!
A bone-piercing cold aura surged toward her!
Viona's lifeblood instantly surged!
For a moment, she was unable to fully control the great holy sword and could not continue to suppress the source of the shady line crack behind her.
"Boom!!!"
A bone-piercing cold aura once again erupted from the shady line crack!
The shady line aura that spread out from it instantly surged towards Viona again!
The holy aura that Viona's body was constantly producing was completely devoured by the shady line aura before it could even surge out!
This was bad!
For the first time, Viona's eyes revealed a hint of panic. She realized that she had lost control of the situation.
She raised her head and saw the water giant's body sway after throwing a punch. It raised its fist again and smashed it at her fiercely.
She couldn't hide at all!
Viona's eyes flashed with determination as she silently cursed.
"Bang!!!"
The moment the fist hit Viona's body, the water giant creature exploded!
Viona's body was instantly covered in a thick layer of white frost and her entire body was instantly frozen. Not only was her body unable to move, but even the holy power in her body was instantly suppressed to the limit!
The Saintess' power was still protecting the source of her sea of consciousness, keeping her consciousness clear.
In the frozen state, Viona was still staring at Fang Heng, who was standing not far away and panting.
Fang Heng!
These were all part of his plan!
From the moment she stepped into the cave, she had already fallen into Fang Heng's trap!
Viona's angry eyes gradually calmed down.
She was careless this time.
Fortunately, at the last moment, she had already made preparations for her rebirth.
The next time they met…
Whoosh!
Viona's frozen body was sucked into the shady line crack behind her.
"Bang! Bang Bang!!!"
In the frozen state, Viona's body was torn apart by the distorted space!
The ice crystal fragments were completely sucked into the crack in the ice!
Success!
Fang Heng had activated the Melting Fire Troll Overlord's heart the moment Viona lost control of the holy weapon!
"Phew!!!"
A scorching aura seeped out from his heart and rapidly spread outwards. A portion of it flowed towards the crack at the source of the shady line that was about to break free from its suppression!

1619 Inspection
"Boom!!"
Two auras, one hot and one cold, collided in the air!
Fang Heng raised his head and drank a bottle of full spirit recovery potion with negative effects. He rushed towards the source of the central shady line and took out the scroll in his hand.
[Scroll: Environmental magic scroll: Scorched earth.]
Whoosh!
Fang Heng's newly recovered mental strength was instantly sucked dry by the environmental magic scroll!
Almost at the same time, the dark brown scorched earth spread out in all directions with Fang Heng's feet as the center!
The frozen earth was instantly covered in black scorched earth!
The temperature in the entire cave rose rapidly!
Only the area around the crack at the source of the shady line was still frozen.
Very good! It was effective!
Fang Heng's heart skipped a beat and then he shouted, "Ji Xiaobo!"
Ji Xiaobo stood there, his heart pounding uncontrollably.
Everything happened too quickly. From Fang Heng's sneak attack to Viona being absorbed by the distorted space, it had only been less than half a minute!
She was dead!
They killed Viona!
Furthermore, it was Viona who had awakened her inherited power.
"Ji Xiaobo! Hurry up! Prepare to seal!"
Only then did Ji Xiaobo come back to his senses. He immediately took out the triangular seal scroll from his backpack.
The scroll was also obtained from the Culodi Chamber of Commerce through trade, and it could create a spatial seal.
Short duration, one-time use item, excellent effect.
Ji Xiaobo shouted, "Okay! I'm ready!"
Fang Heng ran towards the shady line crack in the middle of the cave as fast as he could.
Without the suppression of Viona's holy power, the shady line crack was about to erupt!
Fortunately, Fang Heng took timely measures.
Under the influence of the Melting Fire Troll Overlord's heart and the scorched earth effect of the magic scroll, the rift was once again temporarily suppressed!
Whoosh!
Fang Heng flashed to the side of the shady line aura and glanced at the holy weapon, the great holy sword, that had fallen to the ground.
Under the control of Viona's holy power, the great holy sword had returned to a size that was less than two meters long.
The huge sword pierced into the ground, and the Holy Light it emitted could still slightly suppress the shady line aura beside it.
However, it was far less effective than when it was stabbed into the crack previously!
Fang Heng quickly placed the Melting Fire Troll Overlord's heart on the ground.
When the scorching aura collided with the shady line aura that seeped out of the crack, an even more exciting aura fluctuation was produced!
Fang Heng frowned and took out a few black charcoal from his backpack.
Charcoal effect: Unknown.
The game prompt could not tell what it was.
However, Gano said that this thing was left behind from the burning during the rebirth of the fire phoenix.
When the legendary creature, the fire phoenix, was reborn, the place where it rested would produce extreme temperatures.
Fang Heng wasn't sure if the story was true or not, but he could sense the powerful flame fluctuations contained in the charcoal.
Whoosh!
Fang Heng directly threw the wooden block toward the center of the crack.
Then, he quickly retreated.
Eh?
The effect was exceptionally good?!
Under the influence of the wooden block, the shady line that was originally spewing out frost seemed to have stopped firing. Only wisps of mist leaked out.
"Whoosh!"
Ji Xiaobo immediately activated the scroll in his hand.
Space-Four Corners Seal!
A gray shadow that was visible to the naked eye quickly appeared above the shady line crack, enveloping a small area around the shady line crack, including the Melting Fire Troll Overlord's heart and the great holy sword!
It formed a physical seal that was like a pyramid.
"Ka ka ka…"
The gray aura outside quickly condensed and solidified into a physical space.
Without the replenishment of the source aura, the shady line that was about to explode in the cave quickly calmed down.
It was done!
The magic scroll in Ji Xiaobo's hands turned into ashes as he heaved a sigh of relief.
The Melting Fire Troll Overlord's heart, the environmental scroll, the unknown charcoal, the spatial seal, and the great holy sword that had lost most of its power were able to control the source of the shady line that was about to erupt.
Moreover, this was just to control the aura of the shady line for a moment.
It was time for the next step!
Ji Xiaobo turned his head to search for Fang Heng's traces and found that the latter had retreated to his side.
Fang Heng's pupils were covered in a layer of gray.
Soul inspection!
Through the layer of gray fog on his retina, Fang Heng could see Viona's dead soul condensing into stars in the air and dissipating out of the cave under the protection of the Holy Light.
During the brief delay, more than half of Viona's soul had left.
Whoosh!
The Book of the Dead appeared in front of Fang Heng.
Fang Heng stretched out his hand and aimed at Viona's soul which was about to escape in the air.
"Gather!!"
The gray aura quickly invaded Viona's soul!
"Boom!!!"
Just as the gray aura touched Viona's soul, a scorching wave of Holy Light energy erupted!
Viona's soul instantly broke free from the dark aura.
At the same time, Fang Heng felt his brain buzz!
His sea of consciousness surged violently!
[Hint: You have received an attack from Saintess Viona's soul power. You have received 1/3 damage to your maximum HP.]
[Hint: You have suffered a backlash. Your spirit power has been reduced by 10% within 24 hours.]
Fang Heng's sea of consciousness suffered a severe backlash, and he could no longer control the Book of the Dead. He took a few steps back, and then he could not help but kneel on one knee. He supported himself with one hand on the ground and grabbed his head which was in intense pain with the other.
"Brother Fang! Are you alright?"
Ji Xiaobo quickly helped Fang Heng up.
Fang Heng gritted his teeth and suppressed the pain from the sea of consciousness.
First, he had used a wave of Everlasting Moon to forcefully attack Viona, which had exhausted his spirit strength. Then, he forcefully activated the environmental scroll, which had placed a huge burden on his mental strength. Now, he had suffered a backlash from the attack.
"I'm fine."
Fang Heng shook his head and gritted his teeth to keep himself awake. He looked up at Viona's soul which was quickly dissipating in the air.
As expected, he still failed.
The soul of a Saintess was not so easy to capture, especially after awakening part of the Saintess' inheritance.
Everything was within his expectations.
The game had just begun!
Fang Heng turned to look at Ji Xiaobo and replied, "Don't worry about me, go! Take care of them. I'll be right there."
"Brother Fang, you, you can still…"
"Hurry up and go!"
"Alright… Good! Brother Fang, be careful!"
Ji Xiaobo knew that the situation was urgent, so he didn't say anything more. He looked at Fang Heng worriedly before running out of the cave!
Without Ji Xiaobo's support, Fang Heng felt his legs go soft. He sat down on the ground, gasping for breath. He took out a few bottles of recovery potion and gulped them down.
His gaze slowly gathered at the center of the cave.
Viona left the holy artifact in the same place-the Voice of Heaven.
The situation just now was urgent, so he didn't have time to check the condition of the holy artifact.
Perhaps he could think of a way to obtain the holy artifact later.
Fang Heng's heart skipped a beat.
Could there be an unexpected gain?
Not now.
He would come back when he had the chance.
Fang Heng secretly suppressed the greed in his heart.
The holy artifact also had the effect of suppressing the shady line aura. Even if he wanted to obtain it, he would have to wait until he finished off Viona!
He rested on the spot for three minutes.
The effect of the backlash in his sea of consciousness gradually faded, and the potion quickly took effect.
Fang Heng felt that his stamina was gradually recovering. He stood up and glanced at the holy weapon in the center of the cave with some reluctance. He quickly left the sealed cave.

1620 Resurrection
Outside the sealed cave, the followers of the Holy Court gathered around the ritual magic array.
They knelt on one knee and chanted a prayer.
Fang Heng had brought this group of believers from the high-tier world Watts.
As the believers chanted in cadence, golden Holy Light enveloped the magic array in the center of the ritual.
Xu Xun and the other two necromancy scholars stood behind the group from the Holy Court. They watched the scene with trepidation.
Earlier, they had sensed an extremely violent fluctuation from the sealed cave behind them.
The energy fluctuation made them feel shocked.
They really wanted to know what had happened inside the cave at the source of the shady line.
They even had some guesses about this.
It was very likely that Fang Heng had done something to Viona!
He could deal with Viona, who had awakened part of her Saintess power, with his own strength?
And from the looks of it, Fang Heng actually succeeded?
How did he do it?!
Xu Xun and the others were very clear.
This was Fang Heng's secret.
No matter what, Fang Heng did it!
Xu Xun glanced at Ji Xiaobo who had just arrived and asked, "Where's Fang Heng? Is he alright?"
The first thing Ji Xiaobo did when he ran out was to call the believers of the Holy Court to start the resurrection ritual. He glanced at the sealed stone door and nodded. He said, "Yes, Brother Fang is slightly injured and needs to deal with something. He will be here soon."
Everyone's hearts sank when they heard this.
It seemed that Fang Heng had paid a huge price to defeat Viona.
Would it affect the subsequent plans?
"Don't worry, everyone. Brother Fang is fine. The ritual will take a few more minutes. He'll be there!"
"Yes."
The three of them nodded and stopped being distracted. They focused on observing the operation of the ritual magic array.
Fang Heng had already created the best conditions for them. Then, they would completely seal Viona's soul!
Xu Xun and the other two looked at each other.
This was the biggest effect they had played in completing the talent advancement mission!
Swoosh!!!
A faint light gradually appeared on the Origin Stone in the center of the ritual magic array.
The light nurtured a new body.
"Be careful, it's about to start."
Their expressions changed slightly as they stared at the gradually growing ball of light.
"Ka…"
Suddenly, a soft sound came from behind them. The sealed gate opened.
Fang Heng walked out of the sealed gate and stepped into the outer cavern.
He had already endured more than half of the intense backlash, but from the outside, Fang Heng's face was still very pale.
Seeing that Fang Heng had returned safely, everyone suddenly felt a little more confident.
"Fang Heng, you're here."
"Yes."
Fang Heng nodded at Xu Xun and the other two and stood in front of them.
Just nice.
He caught up!
Fang Heng looked at the followers who were performing the ritual, took a step forward, and slowly raised his hands.
The body constructed from Holy Light shone with a dazzling golden light on the Origin Stone.
As the Origin Stone dissipated, Viona's figure gradually condensed in the center of the ritual.
"Whoosh!"
Viona's consciousness gradually recovered under the state of resurrection.
Unless one mastered the secret art of soul control after death, the state of the soul wandering after death was an illusory and uncontrollable state.
Her consciousness was chaotic.
Viona couldn't remember how long it had been since she died. Her memory was still stuck before she died. It stopped at the moment when Fang Heng plotted against her!
Viona's soul gradually poured into her body. She sensed that she was being resurrected. She even heard a call in her ear.
"Revive!"
"Viona!"
The power of the soul awakened, and the new body gradually merged with the soul.
"Fang Heng…"
Viona felt her soul being revived. She closed her eyes and muttered softly.
"Thank you for letting me feel the taste of failure. The next time we meet…"
Swoosh.
Viona suddenly opened her eyes and her pupils constricted.
What the hell!
At this moment, Viona's eyes were filled with shock and disbelief. The person hosting the sacred resurrection ritual was actually…
Fang Heng!
Viona stared at the person in front of her.
Fang Heng!
Why was it him?
No, this body…
Viona suddenly realized that her newly reborn body was exceptionally weak.
"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!!!"
In the next moment, several thick black soul chains attacked her from all directions!
"Chi! Chi chi!!!"
Viona's pupils dilated hundreds of times.
She had just been resurrected, and her soul had just fused with her body. Her power had yet to fully recover.
In addition to the slight adjustments Fang Heng made to the resurrection magic array, his body was also weakened to the limit.
Instantly, Viona's body was pierced through by dozens of black soul chains!
Viona stared at Fang Heng, her eyes losing their luster once again.
"Ka ka ka…"
The soul chains quickly withdrew into the Book of the Dead in front of Xu Xun and the other two.
Elder Imre said in a deep voice, "Attack! Seal her!"
The retinas of Xu Xun and the other two were immediately covered in a layer of grey ash.
Soul inspection!
Viona's soul gradually emerged from her body. Her soul was enveloped in a layer of dark golden light.
Seeing this, Xu Xun and the other two immediately revealed extremely grave expressions.
Not good!
Wasn't Saintess Viona still not completely awakened? Why was her soul power protected so strongly??
The three of them quickly exchanged glances.
There was no time.
A dead horse must be treated as a living horse!
Almost at the same time, three gray spiritual powers overflowed from the Book of the Dead, fusing into an even larger gray aura in the air, attaching itself to Viona's soul!
"Chi! Chi chi!!"
Before the gray aura could completely touch Viona's golden soul, it sizzled and released clouds of mist.
The three of them controlled their auras and forcefully attached themselves to it!
"Bang!"
The moment the gray aura came into contact with the soul, the air exploded!
The golden light instantly shone!
The mist was dispersed by the scorching Holy Light!
The shockwave from the explosion of the Holy Light caused the faces of Xu Xun and the other two, who were controlling the Book of the Dead, to turn pale.
Not good!
The three of them suffered a violent backlash, and their sea of consciousness suffered a serious injury similar to what Fang Heng had suffered before. At the same time, they took a few steps back.
How could this be?!
Her strength was actually so powerful?
Milani endured the backlash in her sea of consciousness. She gritted her teeth and looked up, staring at the soul of Saintess Viona, who was about to disappear from her sight.
Failed?!
They had spent so much effort on this plan, but it had failed just because they could not forcefully control Viona's soul.
Unacceptable!
After waiting for so long, they finally saw hope, so how could they accept failure now?
Milani bit the tip of her tongue to stay awake and was about to struggle one last time.
How could a person who could advance to grandmaster-level of necromancy not have a few assets?
It was time to risk it all!
She admitted that she couldn't do it alone and needed the help of the other two.
Just as she was about to call for her teammates to help, Milani saw Elder Imre waving at her from the corner of her eye.
What did he mean by waving his hand?
Give up?
Milani froze and turned to look at Imre.

1621 Backup Plan
Imre was the most powerful of the three, so the backlash he suffered was the least. He recovered from the backlash immediately.
He waved at Milani and pointed at Fang Heng, who was not far away.
Hmm?
Milani looked in the direction Imre was pointing and saw Fang Heng standing at the side. She suddenly realized something and stopped what she was doing.
Fang Heng's expression was calm. He looked up at Viona's soul leaving quickly as if he was thinking about something.
So calm?
This was not Fang Heng's style!
He must have other trump cards!
On the side, Xu Xun's sea of consciousness was also in turmoil due to the backlash!
He endured the backlash and took out a scroll from his backpack. Just as he was about to make a move, he suddenly realized that a hand was pressing on his shoulder.
Turning around, Xu Xun saw Fang Heng standing behind him and holding him down.
Fang Heng said, "Don't rush to fight, wait a little longer,"
"Hmm? Wait a little longer? What do you mean?"
Xu Xun was startled.
He suddenly reacted.
Could it be that Fang Heng had a backup plan?!
Soon, Viona's soul disappeared from his sight.
Milani hurriedly turned to look at Fang Heng and shouted, "Fang Heng! What should we do? Her soul is about to escape!"
"Don't worry. Actually, for safety reasons, there's another friend who's also participating in our collaboration this time. For some reason, I didn't introduce him to you before."
Fang Heng shifted his gaze to the Coffin of Disaster.
"But I think you might know her too."
As he spoke, the lid of the Coffin of Disaster moved away.
When they saw the figure walking out of the Coffin of Disaster, everyone's eyes revealed a hint of surprise.
It was actually her!
Lord Dani.
The person who was rumored to have kidnapped Viona!
It was said that after the incident, Dani had already fled back to the main world she was in.
The Holy Court was actually targeting Lord Dani.
Why was she here?
"It seems that everything is going well."
Dani walked out of the Coffin of Disaster and glanced at Fang Heng before walking up to everyone.
Elder Imre clearly recognized Dani and nodded at her. He said, "Lord Dani, it's been many years since we last met. I didn't expect to see you here."
"Of course, you guys are about to complete the mission, so I can't leave you guys behind."
Neither Xu Xun nor Milani had officially met Lord Dani, but they had heard of her name.
The two of them couldn't help but look at Fang Heng.
It turned out that Dani was also working with Fang Heng!
When did this happen?
"This is Lord Dani. I'll explain the details later. In short, this friend has also accepted the same talent advancement mission as us."
Fang Heng gave a simple introduction and said, "Time is tight. Let's get started."
"Yes."
Lord Dani walked straight into the center of the resurrection ritual magic circle where the believers of the Holy Court gathered. She took out an Origin Stone that belonged to Viona from her backpack and placed it in the center of the ritual magic array.
Buzz…
The ritual magic array glowed.
Around them, the believers of the Holy Court began to chant again.
Milani and the others were shocked.
What kind of stone was that?
The resurrection ritual magic array was activated again!
They still wanted to revive Viona?
Again?
Understood!
Imre's eyes flashed.
Xu Xun and Milani also came to a realization.
They understood what Fang Heng was doing.
After awakening part of the Saintess' inheritance, Viona's soul power was extremely powerful!
Even after death, her soul was still protected.
With their current abilities, it would be challenging to forcefully capture the Saintess' soul.
If they weren't careful, everything could end in failure.
However, they could kill Viona again and again!
Every time she was killed, the resurrection of the soul would consume a portion of Viona's soul power.
Similarly, every attempt to capture souls would consume this power.
If her strength was constantly depleted and could not be replenished…
Everyone looked at Fang Heng.
What a terrifying person.
To Viona, this was definitely a form of extreme torture!
However, they still found it strange.
When did Fang Heng start working with Lord Dani?
They remembered that Lord Dani had previously issued an assassination warrant for Fang Heng.
Why did they suddenly cooperate?
Or was the cooperation all fake? Are they all fooling outsiders?
Were they already working together when they kidnapped Viona?
Fang Heng had actually started to plot from that time?
Everyone was bewildered.
"Hehe."
Seeing everyone's eyes on him, Ji Xiaobo chuckled.
Of course, he was the one who helped to facilitate the collaboration.
Ever since Fang Heng obtained the first Origin Stone at the Necromancer Association, he had immediately thought of dealing with Viona.
At that time, he had deduced that the people who had infiltrated the Necromancer Association were not the only ones who had used the Origin Stone and the magic array to search for Viona's whereabouts!
Thus, Fang Heng immediately thought of ways to find more Origin Stones.
Unfortunately, he had only intercepted and attacked a team from the Holy Court in the barbarian realm game world and had only found an extra one.
With Ji Xiaobo's suggestion and recommendation, they found Lord Dani to cooperate with.
In Ji Xiaobo's words, there was some friction between the two, but they were in agreement on how to deal with the Holy Court. They could temporarily cooperate and deal with the outside world together.
Thus, under Ji Xiaobo's recommendation, the two of them met.
Fang Heng was originally prepared to spend money or use an exchange method to obtain the Origin Stone from Dani.
However, Lord Dani was very smart.
She was suspicious of Viona's disappearance, but she quickly found something different from Fang Heng's words.
After some tugging, Dani joined the alliance.
In fact, during this period of time, Dani had taken on a lot of pressure for Fang Heng.
In her main world, she had even fought with the people of the Holy Court.
Coincidentally, she had Viona's Origin Stone!
In addition, the people of the Holy Court would most likely raise their guard after discovering the disappearance of the Origin Stone and continue to investigate.
Dani agreed to take the blame and helped Fang Heng attract the Holy Court's attention.
Now, it was Fang Heng's turn to repay the favor.
Dani couldn't help but squint her eyes as she watched the operation of the resurrection ritual.
She remembered that when Fang Heng approached her to discuss this plan, she thought that Fang Heng was a lunatic.
Even though she was called a lunatic by others, the most she could do was think of a way to kill Viona and snatch her soul to complete the mission.
She did not expect Fang Heng to be even crazier.
He even wanted to help Viona complete part of the inheritance before killing her!
Now it seemed like…
Fang Heng was indeed a lunatic.
Moreover, he was a terrifying lunatic who could change the world.
Lord Dani pondered and slowly retreated.
The Origin Stone gradually condensed in the magic array at the center of the ritual.
During the second ritual, the believers of the Holy Court were obviously much more familiar with the ritual, and the speed of the ritual had increased slightly.
Under everyone's gaze, Fang Heng stepped forward again and raised his hand.
"Revive…"
"Viona…"

1622 Shattered
Whoosh!
In the chaos, Viona's consciousness slowly recovered.
She didn't know how long it had been since the last time, but she opened her eyes again.
Viona remembered the humiliation she suffered before she died, and her eyes were filled with anger.
What the hell!
She opened her eyes again and saw the person in front of her. Viona's eyes almost split open!
The first thing she saw was that hateful face again!
Fang Heng!
Why was he here again?!
"Chi! Chi chi!!!"
In the next moment, the black soul chains penetrated Viona's body again!
"Hurry!"
This time, Lord Dani also took out the Book of the Dead and joined Xu Xun and the others in an attempt to capture Viona's soul!
Four gray auras condensed into one in the air and attacked Viona's soul again!
"Boom!!!"
The gray aura came into contact with the light attached to Viona's soul, causing another holy explosion!
Everyone took a few steps back as they suffered another backlash.
The golden light that enveloped Viona's soul continued to seep out!
Fang Heng did not participate in the soul capture. He had not fully recovered and forcefully participating would only cause his combat ability to continue to decrease.
At this moment, he was looking up to observe the situation of the soul body.
Very good.
After two consecutive resurrections and attempts to capture her, the dark golden light enveloping Viona's soul visibly weakened.
If they did it a few times in a row, they would definitely be able to capture Viona's soul!
Not to mention that the people he worked with were all veteran players who had been deeply involved in the study of necromancy for decades.
Fang Heng believed that he still had a few trump cards up his sleeve.
Fang Heng's gaze shifted to Xu Xun and the others who were quickly recovering from the backlash. He said in a deep voice, "There are only three life stones left! Everyone, please hurry up and recover your spiritual power. Let's continue!"
The cadence of the prayer echoed through the cave again.
The believers activated the resurrection magic array again.
…
Time passed by.
"Whoosh!"
In the center of the sacred resurrection ritual, Viona opened her eyes for the fifth time.
The continuous death and resurrection had greatly reduced her soul power, and even her consciousness was somewhat blurry.
She could feel her soul weakening, but her consciousness was still in a state of chaos after she had just woken up. She did not realize that she was about to face a life-and-death crisis.
"Fang Heng!"
When Viona saw the person in front of her, her eyes were filled with anger!
Viona had been played time and time again and she was almost devoured by the flames of anger.
"Chi! Chi chi chi!!"
Before she could say anything else, the dense black soul chains around her pierced through her body!
The soul wrapped in golden light once again spilled out of Viona's body.
"Hurry!"
Fang Heng shouted.
Behind them, a visible white mist had begun to seep out of the sealed door.
They had not much time to spend on Viona!
This was the last time!
Fang Heng's pupils were covered with a layer of gray mist. He stared at Viona's soul that was leaking out of her body and shouted," Everyone, now! Attack her with all your might! Stop her!"
Without Fang Heng's reminder, the four of them immediately activated their spiritual power with all their might!
The thick gray mist quickly gathered towards Viona's soul!
The protective light that enveloped Viona's soul had already dimmed after the first four rounds of attacks.
"Bang!!!"
The gray mist exploded once again when it touched the outer layer of Viona's soul!
Xu Xun and the other three frowned at the same time.
No!
Not yet!
This time, Xu Xun and the others who were controlling the Books of the Dead did not retreat!
The gray fog controlled by the four of them dissipated by more than half, but it did not completely disappear!
"Continue!"
The remaining fog gathered in the air and formed a ball again, once again enveloping Viona's soul!
It was completely wrapped in it!
"Success!"
Ji Xiaobo, who had been watching from the side, couldn't help but shout excitedly.
Viona's soul was finally firmly controlled by Xu Xun and the other three!
Ji Xiaobo turned around and shouted at Fang Heng, "Brother Fang!"
Fang Heng's heart tightened when he saw this. He raised his hand immediately.
The soul sealing bottle!
The next step was to seal her soul!
Under the control of his mental power, the sealed bottle floated in the air in front of Fang Heng.
Xu Xun and the other three controlled the spell at the same time, using the grey aura to wrap around Viona's soul and pour it into the bottle!
Success!
What?
Ji Xiaobo's heart skipped a beat as he watched the soul enter the bottle. But before he could get excited, he heard a loud explosion.
"Bang!!!"
What the hell!
Ji Xiaobo was shocked.
The soul sealing bottle exploded!
The scene in front of them was beyond Ji Xiaobo's expectations, and everyone else's hearts sank as well.
Fang Heng was even more surprised.
Why did it explode?
Xu Xun didn't have time to think about why it exploded. He immediately shouted, "Quick! Stop her!"
Seeing Viona's soul break free from the sealed bottle and about to leave again, Xu Xun and the other three worked together to activate the Books of the Dead again, pulling Viona's soul back!
Ji Xiaobo panicked. They had finally reached the last step, so why was there a hiccup?
He asked anxiously, "What happened?"
Lord Dani frowned and replied, "Mistake? There's no hurry. Let's try again."
Fang Heng remained calm and focused on the scattered fragments, deep in thought.
Why did it explode?
He also did not know!
However, he felt that it was not a mistake.
"Not good." Imre, the elder, released his spiritual power to stabilize Viona's soul as he said, "In my opinion, Viona's soul is too powerful after partial awakening. Her soul power has already exceeded the upper limit of an ordinary soul bottle."
Fang Heng's heart sank.
His judgment was the same as Imre's!
The plan had been carried out smoothly until now, except for the last step.
He had specially asked Teacher Gu Luo about it before.
Teacher Gu Luo believed that the soul sealing bottle could definitely seal Viona's soul, which was why Fang Heng chose to make his move.
To be on the safe side, he also exchanged for a large number of sealing incantations.
However, he did not expect…
He didn't even have time to paste the incantations!
In fact, Teacher Gu Luo did not expect Fang Heng to work so hard to awaken Viona's Saintess' power to such an extent!
Fang Heng asked, "What can we do? Or should we think of a way to continue weakening Viona's soul power?"
"The container's loading is related to the strength of Viona's soul. There's no way to weaken it."
What should he do?!
Fang Heng could not help but feel anxious.
Xu Xun and the other three were all outstanding necromancers.
However, they could only control Viona's soul for a while longer.
The most troublesome part was not controlling Viona's soul, but the crack at the source of the shady line!
Soon, the crack would no longer be suppressed. At that time, they would also encounter great trouble!

1623 Sticking Runes
Milani turned to look at Fang Heng and shouted, "Fang Heng! Is there any other way?"
What method?
Just as everyone was at a loss, Lord Dani suddenly said in a deep voice, "Fang Heng, isn't there still that?!"
Which one?
Everyone looked at Fang Heng in surprise.
Until now, Fang Heng still had a trump card that he had not revealed.
Lord Dani said in a deep voice, "Fang Heng, give it a try!"
Fang Heng looked up thoughtfully at Lord Dani.
"You mean Shrine of Bones?"
Hearing Fang Heng mention the Shrine of Bones, Xu Xun and the other two also revealed astonished expressions.
The Necromancer Association's holy weapon, the Shrine of Bones.
It was also in Fang Heng's hands?
What followed was great joy!
The Shrine of Bones also had the ability to seal souls!
Moreover, the Shrine of Bones was a holy weapon!
In theory, the strength of the Shrine of Bones' seal was much stronger than that of an ordinary sealing bottle!
It had a greater chance of sealing Viona's soul!
Since he had the Shrine of Bones, there was no reason to use the soul sealing bottle!
Fang Heng smiled bitterly when he saw everyone's gazes.
Indeed, there was no other way.
"Everyone, the Shrine of Bones is indeed in my hands. It is not that I am unwilling to use it, but that it has an extremely great hidden danger…"
"Don't mention any hidden dangers! This is the only way now!"
Milani urged.
Ji Xiaobo was even more anxious than everyone else. He shouted, "Brother Fang, hurry up! The shady line crack is about to explode! If we don't do something now, everything will be over!"
"Indeed, we've already come this far. It would be too much to give up."
Fang Heng said in a low voice as he gathered his hands in front of him.
"Everyone, if there's any trouble in the future, please lend me a hand."
"Naturally."
"I'll definitely do my best."
Fang Heng nodded.
He took a deep breath.
Let's go all out.
Activating his mental energy, the Shrine of Bones appeared in front of him.
It was not that Fang Heng had never thought of using the Shrine of Bones to seal Viona's soul, however, doing so was extremely risky.
There were three main risks.
Firstly, after the Shrine of Bones sealed the soul, it would automatically and slowly erase the soul's consciousness for its own use.
Fang Heng wasn't sure if the absorption of Viona's soul by the Shrine of Bones would cause any changes to her soul, and if her soul would be able to obtain Teacher Gu Luo's approval to complete the mission.
Secondly, the Shrine of Bones was in a damaged state.
In this state, the souls absorbed by the Shrine of Bones could not be released!
So if he absorbed Viona's soul but could not release it…
He might not even be able to complete the mission!
It would be all for nothing!
As for the third point, there was still the soul of a Vampire King hidden inside the Shrine of Bones.
It was theoretically possible to stall another one.
However, there were still risks.
Would the two souls fight?
The Saintess' soul should be stronger than the Vampire King, but if she was injured, would it affect the mission?
To make things worse, if the fight went too far, even the Shrine of Bones might be destroyed!
Eventually, the holy weapon would be damaged and unstable!
The risks were too great, and Fang Heng did not dare to take the risks before.
But now, there was no other way out!
"Chi!!!"
Fang Heng activated his spiritual power, and a gray aura overflowed from the Shrine of Bones.
The lid of the shrine opened!
"Hurry!"
Lord Dani ordered.
The four of them controlled Viona's soul again and poured it into the opening of the Shrine of Bones!
"Boom!!!"
The Saintess' soul was wrapped in the dark aura and quickly filled into the Shrine of Bones!
It persevered!
Good!
Continue to persevere!
It had not exploded yet!
Hold on…!
Ji Xiaobo stared at the condition of the Shrine of Bones, cheering in his heart.
Until Viona's entire soul was poured into the Shrine of Bones.
Fang Heng formed a seal in front of him with both hands and muttered to himself.
"Seal!"
Swoosh!
The gray aura completely sealed the entrance to the upper level of the altar, and the lid was closed.
[Hint: The player has used the Shrine of Bones to seal an unknown soul.]
A line of game notifications quickly appeared on Fang Heng's retina.
Did he succeed?
Almost everyone in the cave cast a probing gaze at Fang Heng.
Was it really settled?
Fang Heng was also a little uncertain as he stared at the shrine in front of him.
It was as if the two sealed souls were safe and sound.
There were no signs of fighting.
He had been worried for a long time, but now it seemed that the result was still alright.
"Ka ka ka…"
Suddenly, the Shrine of Bones started to shake in front of Fang Heng's eyes!
Not good!
Viona's soul strength was actually so high that even the Shrine of Bones could not withstand it!
Fang Heng's pupils constricted as he shouted. "Quick! Stick runes!"
Ji Xiaobo, Xu Xun, and the others immediately gathered around the altar, taking out the sealing rune papers they had exchanged from Teacher Gu Luo and sticking them on the outer layer of the Shrine of Bones!
"Pa! Pa pa pa!!"
There were hundreds of them!
The outer layer of the Shrine of Bones was covered with seven to eight layers of runic paper, and it finally stopped shaking.
Everyone quickly exchanged glances.
"The condition of the Shrine of Bones is extremely unstable. Return as soon as possible and hand it over to Teacher Gu Luo to complete the mission."
"Boom!!!"
Xu Xun was halfway through his sentence when an extremely muffled explosion suddenly came from the sealed door behind him.
What was going on?
Everyone turned to look at the sealed door behind them.
Fang Heng's expression changed slightly.
Oh no, the crack at the source of the shady line could not be suppressed anymore!
More and more thick frost fog seeped out from the gap under the sealed door.
"Leave this place first! I'll go deal with the source of the shady line. Let's split up! There is no need to wait for me, just meet up at the nearest teleportation tower!"
Xu Xun and the others knew that Fang Heng had his secrets. Seeing how anxious he was, they did not ask further and nodded. He said, "Be careful! Let's go first!"
After saying that, everyone quickly ran towards the cave exit.
The believers of the Holy Court who were holding the ritual had already hidden in the Coffin of Disaster.
The two fusion Tyrant forms that were curled up in the corner walked forward. They picked up the two Coffins of Disaster and carried them on their shoulders. Then, they ran forward and caught up with Xu Xun and the others who were the first to escape.
Fang Heng crushed a flaming crystal and ran in the opposite direction towards the sealed cave.
Xu Xun and the others all had life-saving tools provided by the Culodi Chamber of Commerce to resist the shady line aura.
As long as he did not face the source of the shady line at close range, it would not be a problem for him to escape.
Fang Heng pondered and opened the sealed door.
"Boom!!!"
The moment the door opened, an extremely cold aura seeped out. At the same time, a game notification appeared on Fang Heng's retina.
[Hint: The player is affected by a special environment. The player's mobility will be restricted and the player's HP will continue to decrease.]
[Hint: The current level of the environment is extremely high. Please be careful.]
[Hint: The player's physique is higher than 200. The player can resist some environmental effects.]
[Hint: Due to the player's current special effects-body of fire, boiling body fluids, etc., the player has been weakened by the environmental effects…]

1624 Obtaining
Fang Heng quickly turned around and looked at the center of the cave.
The Melting Fire Troll Overlord's heart was still beating, but it was covered in a layer of frost.
A white aura that was visible to the naked eye was constantly seeping out from the crack in the center!
The Four Corners Seal on the outside had completely lost its effect.
The unknown charcoal wood provided by the Culodi Chamber of Commerce was the most effective!
More than ten pieces of charcoal were still blocking the leakage of the frost aura from the source of the shady line.
However, it could not hold on for long!
As long as the charcoal completely dissipated, the source of the shady line would completely explode!
"Since we are already here, let's give it a try!"
Fang Heng gritted his teeth and rushed towards the great holy sword beside the central shady line.
[Hint: The player has been affected by the negative effects of the current environment. The player's movement speed and attack speed have been greatly reduced. The player has entered an additional frost and frozen state…]
[Hint: The player has been affected by environmental effects. 3,000 stamina points have been lost.]
[Hint: The player's undying state has been activated, and the frozen state has been removed…]
The closer he got to the center of the crack, the more obvious the frost effect became!
Fang Heng felt his body becoming stiffer and stiffer, and his movement speed decreased drastically until it was reduced to one-tenth of its optimal state!
Fang Heng raised his head and threw a few flaming flower seeds into his mouth.
A scorching hot aura immediately exploded in his mouth, and the warm breath quickly spread throughout his body!
He had to rely on the equipment and potions provided by the Culodi Chamber of Commerce to walk to the front of the great holy sword.
He changed to the sacred study form!
Fang Heng quickly stretched out his hand to grab the great holy sword!
"Buzz…"
The moment his finger touched the holy artifact, several lines of game prompts flashed rapidly on his retina.
[Hint: The player has obtained an unknown weapon.]
[Hint: The player has not passed the attribute check. The player has not obtained the weapon's recognition.]
[Hint: The player can still obtain the equipment, but the equipment cannot be placed in the bag and will definitely drop after death (the equipment can still follow the player through the space teleportation passage, etc.). The player cannot obtain the attribute information and most of the effects of the unknown weapon.]
Fang Heng's pupils constricted when he saw the game notification on his retina.
He had succeeded!
That was not right.
It wasn't like he had completely grasped it!
"Chi, chi chi…"
Fang Heng's heart skipped a beat when he heard a soft sound in his ear.
Oh no!
"Bang!"
A piece of charcoal by his feet exploded due to the frost!
A large amount of the shady line aura leaked out from the crack.
It was going to explode!
Fang Heng did not have time to hesitate. He took out the remaining flaming flower seeds from his backpack and scattered them into the shady line crack. Then, he picked up the holy artifact, the Voice of Heaven, and turned around to run!
He left the cave of the source of the shady line and headed straight for the exit of the cave!
The ground beneath his feet was still trembling!
Fang Heng could hear a low rumble coming from behind him.
The forcefully sealed crack at the source of the shady line was reaching its limit and was accumulating.
Even Fang Heng was shocked by this hidden power.
He could not help but pray softly, "Brother, hold on a little longer. Wait for me to run away first…"
….
At this moment, outside the underground cave of the shady line, the two fusion Tyrant forms were dragging the Coffins of Disaster that contained the believers of the Holy Court and running out!
Xu Xun and the others had just left the cave through the passage and arrived outside.
Everyone looked at the exit of the cave behind them, trying to find Fang Heng.
Where was Fang Heng?
Still not out?
Did he encounter danger?
After all, the Shrine of Bones was also in Fang Heng's hands.
It took so much effort to seal Viona's soul.
If he was not careful…
Everyone hesitated for a moment.
Fang Heng had told the underlings to leave Frost Hell as soon as possible and meet up at the nearest teleportation point in the city.
However, it seemed that the crisis had been averted. It might be safer to stay here and wait for Fang Heng to meet up.
"Ka ka ka…"
What was that?
Xu Xun's expression changed slightly.
While they were hesitating, they felt an unusual tremor coming from the ground under their feet!
Xu Xun and the others could feel a powerful force growing beneath their feet.
This terrifying power…
Lord Dani's expression became extremely grave.
What was Fang Heng doing there alone?
Could it be…
Just like Lord Dani, everyone had the same terrifying thought.
Could it be that he had completely removed the seal on the great holy sword at the source of the shady line?
This was the only answer!
Once the seal was completely removed, the shady line aura would also completely erupt.
At that time, not only would the shady line cave and the entire Frost Hell suffer a huge blow, but even the entire Frost Fortress and Frost City would also suffer a huge blow!
No wonder Fang Heng told them to run!
Not good!
Lord Dani suddenly raised her head.
Needless to say, with everyone's intelligence, they had already guessed most of the situation.
If they continued to wait here, they would have to face the terrifying eruption of the shady line aura.
Even they couldn't resist it!
"The situation is not good. I believe Fang Heng has the ability to deal with the shady line aura."
Imre's expression was grave as he activated a scorching barrier.
He had gotten quite a few good things from the Culodi Chamber of Commerce, which could help them resist for a period of time.
Everyone immediately fled towards the exit of Frost Hell under the protection of the barrier!
Along the way, the earth was still shaking rapidly!
It was getting more and more intense!
They ran forward for more than ten minutes.
"Boom!!!"
All of a sudden, the source of the shady line on his back let out an earth-shaking explosion!
Oh no!
Everyone's heart tightened.
It exploded!
Ji Xiaobo, who was running forward, felt his heart skip a beat. He couldn't help but turn around.
The direction of the shady line cave behind him had long been covered in a frosty white color!
His vision was completely blocked!
A vast expanse of white frost, and a dense shady line that could be seen with the naked eye, rushed towards them!
Even though they were already close to the exit of Frost Hell, the shady line aura that was rushing towards them did not seem to be weakening at all!
From the depths of the white frost, Ji Xiaobo felt a terrifying energy fluctuation.
Just as they had expected, the aura of the shady line had completely erupted!
"Be careful! The shady line attack is coming! Everyone, this is the central region of the attack. You must work together to block the aura attack."
"Yes."
"Understood…"
The expressions of Xu Xun and the other three changed slightly, and they joined forces to activate their shields! They each took out a magic scroll that could resist the shady line and prepared to deal with the final impact.
"Wait!"
Ji Xiaobo suddenly shouted.
His gaze gathered behind the frosty white area and suddenly discovered something. He stopped everyone and shouted, "He's here!"
"He's here!"
Whoosh!
Everyone immediately turned around.
Behind them, a figure was rapidly approaching them, chased by a vast expanse of white shady line aura!
It was Fang Heng!
What was he carrying on his back?
As they got closer, everyone was shocked to discover that Fang Heng was carrying a huge sword on his back!

1625 Explosions
The great holy sword?
Ji Xiaobo's pupils constricted as he recognized the sword.
It was the great holy sword that sealed the crack at the source of the shady line.
Holy weapon-Voice of Heaven!
Good fellow! He had also obtained the holy weapon of the holy realm!
Ji Xiaobo was pleasantly surprised.
After all, it was Brother Fang!
Thieves don't run away in vain! Give holy realm a ruthless blow!
When Xu Xun and the others saw Fang Heng, they heaved a sigh of relief.
Fang Heng had come out, which meant that the holy weapon, the Shrine of Bones, was also intact, and Viona's soul was preserved.
Then, when they saw the great holy sword on Fang Heng's back, they were instantly bewildered.
Xu Xun and the others were considered top-tier players who cultivated necromancy. Naturally, their judgment was different from that of ordinary players.
Combined with the crazy explosion of the shady line aura and the scene they had seen in the cave at the source of the shady line, they immediately guessed the origin of the great holy sword on Fang Heng's back. They looked at Fang Heng with astonishment and shock.
He had also taken away the great holy sword that sealed the source of the shady line. No wonder the shady line crack was completely out of control!
So…
Was this all part of Fang Heng's plan?
Not only did he want to get rid of Viona, he even took this opportunity to seize the great holy sword and completely unseal the source of the shady line.
Even the main mission was part of his plan!
He was really greedy!
Yet he had succeeded!
Viona's soul, the holy realm's holy weapon, and even a portion of the main mission had been completed by him!
"Let's go!"
Fang Heng felt that the fluctuations coming from the shady line behind him were rapidly approaching. His heart was beating wildly. He felt like he was dancing on the tip of a knife, and he was almost at his limit!
Whoosh!
Fang Heng quickly approached the crowd and hid behind Imre's barrier.
"Hurry!"
When Fang Heng gathered, Xu Xun and the others opened up their magic arrays and scrolls.
Almost at the same time, dozens of magic shields were activated!
"Let's go!"
Relying on the magic barrier, everyone charged toward the exit of Frost Hell!
"Boom!!!"
Half a minute later, an extremely cold aura crashed into the magic shield from behind!
Three layers of the magic shield were instantly destroyed!
In the next moment, the outside of the shield was instantly covered by a white frost aura!
Ji Xiaobo couldn't see the outside world clearly as he was hiding inside the shield. He could only hear the constant explosive sounds in his ears. Fortunately, he had prepared in advance. Otherwise, he would definitely not be able to withstand the sudden eruption of the shady line!
Finally, they managed to withstand the spreading of the shady line aura. Xu Xun and the others were also a little afraid but fortunately, they were well prepared.
Fang Heng silently thanked the Culodi Chamber of Commerce in his heart.
"Boom!!!"
While Fang Heng was thanking his lucky stars, he suddenly heard a loud bang in his ear!
Everyone felt a violent tremor under their feet again!
What was going on?
The explosion came from a distance.
The outside world was still covered in a vast expanse of whiteness. The explosive sounds lasted for half a second before they gradually stopped.
Everyone looked at each other.
Other than the few layers of magic protection that were broken, they were not affected too much.
However, a layer of frost quickly accumulated outside the magic barrier, and they were already buried under the ice.
"Let's go."
Xu Xun took out another fire scroll and melted the ice in front of him.
The rest of the group also cooperated to break open the loose ice and slowly moved up diagonally.
Under the cover of the snow and ice, everyone could not tell the direction. Xu Xun, who was leading the way, could only rely on his senses to lead the team forward.
"We can't be so unlucky as to lose our way, right…"
Fang Heng was muttering softly when he suddenly saw a purple light appear in front of him!
What was that?
"It's a guardian seal left behind when Frost Fortress was built."
Elder Imre saw the confusion on everyone's faces and explained, "It seems that the seal was triggered by the explosion of the shady line and that the explosion just now was caused by the collision of the shady line aura with the seal."
Milani had also heard about the guardian seal. She said in surprise, "So, we can leave Frost Hell by following the direction of the light beam. By then, we can escape, right?"
"Yes."
Xu Xun became invigorated and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, let's speed up!"
…
In the outside world, ever since the news of the deal between Fang Heng and the Culodi Chamber of Commerce was released, the entire Punoze game world was once again in an uproar.
The players were busy discussing the Culodi Chamber of Commerce.
Many government officials were also complaining that the Culodi Chamber of Commerce was not doing its job properly.
Good fellow! The Culodi Chamber of Commerce was vindictive!
In the beginning, they were the ones who wanted everyone to join forces to eliminate Fang Heng. Now, they became the first to initiate an alliance with Fang Heng.
How shameless.
Were they trying to team up with Fang Heng to tease everyone?
Li Qingran's team was also a little confused when they received the news.
It was already a little late when they returned to Frost Fortress last night.
Players or local forces who wanted to trade with Fang Heng had already lined up from the entrance of Frost Fortress to the city gate.
However, they could not contact Fang Heng at all.
Seeing that it was already dawn, Li Qingran's team chose to find a restaurant in Frost City to rest. She then tried to communicate with Fang Heng offline.
When it was afternoon, everyone went online and gathered in the hall again. In the end, they heard the news of Fang Heng cooperating with the Culodi Chamber of Commerce again.
What was that supposed to mean?
Didn't Fang Heng already have a feud with the Culodi Chamber of Commerce?
Why did he have to work with the Culodi Chamber of Commerce?
Was Fang Heng really that magnanimous?
The players were confused.
Li Qingran smiled bitterly in her heart as she faced the puzzled gazes of her companions.
She felt that although Fang Heng was not petty, he was definitely not magnanimous.
In the hall, everyone summarized the new information they had obtained.
Sima Fan tried to organize his thoughts but he couldn't figure it out.
"Qingran, haven't you contacted Fang Heng yet?"
"There's no news yet."
As Li Qingran spoke, the entire hall started shaking uncontrollably.
Everyone's expression changed.
Earthquake?
Something was wrong!
Then, a commotion came from outside.
The player closest to the window immediately pushed it open.
He looked out of the window and saw the scene outside. He could not help but be stunned on the spot.
"What happened?"
Everyone gathered around and observed the outside world through the window. They were shocked by the scene in front of them.
In the distance, in the direction of the Frost Hell, an ice-blue aura shot straight into the sky!
A light blue pillar of ice crystals condensed and rose into the sky!
With the blue pillar of ice as the center, circles of ice clouds appeared in the sky.
Below them, visible frost ripples were rapidly spreading outwards and charging straight at Frost City!
It was the shady line aura exploding!
When Sima Fan saw this, his eyes flashed with shock.
The shady line aura erupted!
So sudden?!
How did this happen?!

1626 Spreading
Even standing here, everyone could feel the terrifying strength contained in the shady line aura in the distance.
Not good!
With such a powerful and icy aura, even if they stood there, they would soon be affected!
Seeing this, the players' expressions change and they even panicked.
What should they do?
Should they run away?
Was it too late to run now?
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh Whoosh!!!"
In the next moment, purple pillars of light shot into the sky from the periphery of the Frost Hell!
The ancient magic arrays that the necromancers had set up on the outer layer of the Frost Fortress a long time ago were activated.
The light purple pillar of light quickly condensed into one, sealing the entire Frost Fortress and Frost Hell within!
"Boom!!!"
The blue shady line aura that spread out from the source of the Frost Hell bombarded the purple barrier!
Everyone immediately felt a violent shaking under their feet, and their eardrums exploded!
It was blocked!
Sima Fan stared at the barrier in the distance.
The impact of the shady line aura was blocked by the purple barrier!
However, it was not completely blocked!
A small portion of the blue shady line aura was still visible to the naked eye.
The overflowing aura gradually spread outwards.
However, the impact and destructive power had been greatly weakened compared to before.
Everyone could not help but heave a sigh of relief. They retracted their gazes and looked at each other.
What happened at the source of the shady line? Why did it suddenly explode?
Li Qingran's expression was grave as she stared at the blue ice crystal.
The source of the sudden change in the shady line…
She had a strong hunch.
Everything that she witnessed just now was somehow related to Fang Heng!
As she was pondering over her hunch, a line of game prompts suddenly appeared in Li Qingran's vision.
[Hint: Detected that the player has accepted the main mission related to the game world of Punoze.]
[Warning: The player Fang Heng's main mission completion rate has reached 63.54%. This main storyline mission can only be completed by one person. Please choose carefully.]
[Hint: The player triggered an additional main storyline mission-The source of the shady line in Frost Hell.]
"Fang Heng!"
Li Qingran saw the game notification and her pupils suddenly locked.
This d*mned premonition!
It was indeed him!
"Fang Heng…"
In every corner of the world of Punoze, all the players who had triggered the main storyline mission had learned of this name through the mission notification.
In Frost City, countless pairs of eyes stared at the blue icicle rising from Frost Hell.
Previously, they were still confused and discussing why Fang Heng would trade such an important main storyline mission item to the Culodi Chamber of Commerce.
It was only now that they realized the truth.
So…
Lady Garona's recommendation letter was nothing to Fang Heng!
Fang Heng must have known more details about the shady line of Frost Hell and planned everything.
Fang Heng didn't need Lady Garona to break the seal at the source of the shady line!
So…
The Culodi Chamber of Commerce used an even more important tool in exchange for the recommendation letter from Fang Heng.
Thinking back, everyone felt enlightened.
No wonder Fang Heng was willing to put aside his hatred and make such a deal.
Those idiots from the Culodi Chamber of Commerce thought they had the upperhand and were feeling smug, right?
It was foreseeable that the Culodi Chamber of Commerce would become the laughingstock of the various large trading firms in Punoze for a very long time.
For some reason, everyone even felt a little sympathy for the Culodi Chamber of Commerce.
About 20 kilometers away from Frost Fortress, Yatsek finally found Gano yesterday and learned about the information related to Frost Hell from the latter.
After that, he gathered everyone to search for Lady Garona through the night!
He had to take action immediately!
Yatsek was rushing for time!
At this moment, Yatsek's team had just brought Lady Garona to the teleportation city closest to Frost Hell through the teleportation magic array. After resting for a while, they set off for Frost Fortress.
Based on Fang Heng's information, Yatsek was going to bring Lady Garona to see the City Lord of Frost Fortress, Hornlow.
However, not long after they left the city, they suddenly felt the earth shaking and a blue mist quickly spreading from afar.
The guides from the Chambers of Commerce rarely saw similar situations. Seeing this, they immediately gave a warning and signaled for the team to stop. They shouted, "It's the ice crystal storm! Be careful! The ice storm is coming! Stop moving forward! Set up camp on the spot!"
The party immediately stopped and set up camp.
Walls of Bones rose up one after another, surrounding and protecting the party's temporary camp.
The soul bonfire was ignited in the center of the camp.
In the team, Gano curled his lips and found a spot near the bonfire to sit down.
He felt that he was down on his luck this time.
Originally, he only needed to follow the team into Frost Fortress to find the City Lord, Hornlow.
However, they encountered an ice storm along the way.
Fortunately, this mission was completed perfectly and his family was satisfied.
When this matter was over, he would probably be able to regain control of a portion of the family's business.
"Boom, Boom Boom…"
In the outside world, an ice storm was coming. A large number of ice crystals continuously collided with the Wall of Bones.
The soul bonfire in the center of the camp dispelled the cold aura. The storm only lasted for less than five minutes before it subsided.
After the Wall of Bones was put away, he frowned as he looked into the distance.
In the direction of Frost Fortress, a blue ice crystal could be vaguely seen rising high into the sky.
Ice crystal?
What was that?
He had never seen it before.
Did something happen over there?
At this time, he did not want to see any anomalies.
Yatsek had a bad premonition.
Lady Garona stepped forward and stood beside Yatsek.
She also looked up at the blue ice crystal and stared at it for a moment before she said in a deep voice, "There's trouble."
"Lady Garona, what did you say?"
"Do you see that ice crystal? The aura of the shady line had exploded, and this ice crystal is the evidence."
Yatsek's pupils constricted.
Impossible!
He had seen the situation at the source of the shady line with his own eyes. A great holy sword sealed the source of the shady line. Judging from the strength emanating from the greatsword, it was the holy artifact.
It was impossible to fully release the shady line aura without dealing with the great holy sword!
Yatsek frowned and asked, "Lady Garona, are you sure the eruption of the shady line is causing this?"
"Yes, not only that but the ice storm we encountered just now was also caused by the eruption of the shady line aura."
Garona nodded with a serious expression and said, "I don't know what happened at the source of the shady line, but I can confirm that it has completely erupted."
Yatsek looked at the ice crystal and listened to Garona's words, his heart filled with uncertainty.
Lady Garona had already said so…
Could it be…
But why?
Why would the source of the shady line erupt?
Yatsek suddenly had an extremely bad feeling in his heart. He vaguely felt that he seemed to have caught onto something.

1627 Mission Progress
Garona sighed and continued, "The aura of the shady line has completely erupted, which means that the seal in the depths of the shady line has been broken. There's no point in me following you guys to the Frost Hell. Alright, I have other more important things to deal with."
"Lady Garona… please wait a moment…"
Yatsek was startled and wanted to stop her. However, Lady Garona had no intention of staying and left directly.
Looking at the back of Lady Garona, Yatsek suddenly understood the whole situation.
A strong surge of anger suddenly rose in his heart!
Fang Heng!
It must be Fang Heng!
The person who broke the source of the shady line must be Fang Heng!
Other than the Culodi Chamber of Commerce, no one knew more about the source of the shady line than Fang Heng!
D*mn it!
He had been fooled by Fang Heng again!
Idiot!
Gano, that idiot!
No wonder Fang Heng was willing to use Lady Garona's recommendation letter to make a deal with them!
He must have known how to break the shady line! Therefore, Lady Garona was no longer important to him!
Yatsek's knuckles creaked.
He was even sure that the equipment they provided to resist the shady line aura must have helped Fang Heng a lot to completely open the source of the shady line!
Fang Heng!!!
Gano was currently resting at the side.
He suddenly sensed Yatsek's murderous gaze and couldn't help shrinking his neck.
What was going on?
What's wrong now?
…
At the exit of the Frost Hell, the purple magic beams that were erected high up in the sky connected together, forming a light purple defensive net that blocked the continuous impact of the Frost Hell's aura.
There was still a large amount of the shady line aura seeping out of the defensive net.
However, compared to the inside of the barrier, the shady line aura outside was at least ten times lower.
Fang Heng and the others were surrounded by several layers of magic shields. They crawled out of the frozen soil and spent a lot of effort to pass through the defensive barrier.
The line of sight ahead finally became clear.
Finally, he could leave this damned place.
Fang Heng heaved a sigh of relief.
At the same time, a line of game notifications appeared on his retina.
[Hint: The player has broken the seal at the source of the shady line. The player's current main mission progress has increased to 63.54%.]
[Hint: The player has skipped the current ring mission-Exploring the source of the shady line.]
[Hint: Judging…]
[Hint: The player has skipped part of the ring missions through a special method. All the skipped ring missions will receive a normal rating. All the skipped ring mission rewards will be canceled. The main reward will be obtained at the final stage of the evaluation.]
[Hint: Comprehensive assessment…]
[Hint: The player has triggered the current mission-Explosion of the shady line.]
Mission title: Explosion of the shady line.
Mission description: You have successfully destroyed the seal left behind by the Holy Court at the source of the shady line and completely opened the crack at the source of the shady line. However, the shady line aura seems to be out of control. Please head to the Frost Fortress to discuss the follow-up actions with the City Lord, Hornlow.
Mission requirement: Find Hornlow.
Mission reward: Follow-up mission.
[Hint: The player's current main storyline mission completion rate has exceeded 50%. Other players who have accepted the main storyline mission will receive a warning.]
This was considered as completing the main storyline mission?
Fang Heng saw the notification about the main storyline mission that suddenly popped up, and his heart jumped.
The progress of the mission had increased significantly from 17.8 points and actually exceeded 50.
After the initial surprise, Fang Heng lowered his head and pondered.
Originally, he wasn't that interested in the main storyline mission. After all, he joined the main storyline too late.
Moreover, in the main storyline mission, he not only had to accept all kinds of difficulties in the game but also had to face endless harassment from the players.
In the end, there was only one person who could obtain the reward.
He did not expect that this time when he unlocked the source of the shady line, the entire mission progress would increase by 50%.
Now, it seemed that there was still hope of completing the main storyline mission.
Fang Heng thought about it and decided not to make a judgment so fast. He would observe a bit more. After all, he had enough trouble on his hands now.
After leaving Frost Hell, everyone was finally free. They dispersed the magic barrier and turned to look at Fang Heng.
Lord Dani asked, "Fang Heng, is the condition of the Shrine of Bones alright?"
Fang Heng sensed the state of the Shrine of Bones and nodded, "Not bad."
Ever since the hundreds of seal rune papers were pasted, the Shrine of Bones had completely quieted down.
It remained silent throughout the entire escape.
Fang Heng raised his head and looked into the distance. The eruption of the shady line caused a huge fluctuation, and many players and local forces came to investigate.
Putting aside the main storyline, the most important thing now was to immediately escort the Shrine of Bones back to the Tower of Bones and hand it over to Teacher Gu Luo to complete the mission.
No accidents were allowed to happen on the road!
Fang Heng took out the necromancy attendant uniform and mask that he had prepared in advance from his backpack and put them on neatly. He nodded and said, "Hurry up, let's go!"
"Yes, let's go!"
According to their prior agreement, everyone immediately split into two groups, with Ji Xiaobo leading the fusion Tyrant forms to the outskirts of Frost Hell.
Kou Ming and the others were already waiting there.
At that time, Ji Xiaobo would meet up with Kou Ming and the others to settle down the believers of the Holy Court in the Coffin of Disaster.
Xu Xun and the others directly escorted Fang Heng back to the Tower of Bones.
Xu Xun's group of five were all representatives of high-level combat power in the game. They ran at full speed and were not slow at all.
Halfway there, many people in Frost City saw Fang Heng and his group running in a hurry.
Due to the blue icicles rising from the source of the shady line and the eruption of the shady line aura, the attention of the people in the city was attracted, and there was a lot of noise.
Even if they noticed Fang Heng and his group, they would only think that they were fleeing for their lives.
Fang Heng and the others were able to leave Frost City safely.
Halfway there, Lord Dani discovered the team from the Culodi Chamber of Commerce ahead of time.
Everyone quickly exchanged their opinions.
They weren't afraid, but to avoid getting into trouble, they decided to take a longer route to avoid the team from the Culodi Chamber of Commerce.
It was already close to night when everyone entered the White Bone Holy Tower.
Last time, he suffered a loss by not hiding his identity. This time, Fang Heng had changed into the necromancy attendant's uniform in advance. The great holy sword on his back was also wrapped in several layers of white cloth and carried on his back so that it would not be so eye-catching.
After a round of announcements, Fang Heng was led into the Tower of Bones by the necromancy attendant to meet Teacher Gu Luo.
"Fang Heng, it's already late and you're still in a hurry to see me. Did you encounter trouble again?"
Teacher Gu Luo's expression was gentle.
When he saw Fang Heng leading a group of people over, he nodded in his heart.
He felt that Fang Heng was still very smart. He did not choose to take on the mission alone. Instead, he found partners to work with.
Teacher Gu Luo naturally recognized Dani and the others.
This group of people had all received their talent advancement missions from him.

1628 Judgement
"Teacher Gu Luo, we have indeed encountered some trouble."
Fang Heng nodded at the people behind him.
Lord Dani and Xu Xun stood at the door of the room, guarding it carefully to prevent outsiders from eavesdropping.
Gu Luo was surprised. Why were these people so careful?
Whoosh!
Fang Heng raised his hand.
Dark light swirled in front of him.
The Shrine of Bones levitated in front of Fang Heng.
Gu Luo narrowed his eyes.
The Shrine of Bones!
Even though the Shrine of Bones was wrapped in hundreds of layers of rune paper, Gu Luo still recognized it at a glance.
Gu Luo said seriously, "Oh, it's the Shrine of Bones. Not bad. Compared to ordinary soul sealing bottles, the Shrine of Bones is indeed a better container. With it, it won't be a problem to store the Saintess' soul."
Fang Heng stepped forward and said, "Teacher Gu Luo, thank you for your help. We have successfully used the Shrine of Bones to seal the soul of Saintess Viona. Now her soul is stored in the Shrine of Bones. We would like to request mission completion."
What?!
Teacher Gu Luo's pupils constricted when he heard that. He stared at the Shrine of Bones in front of Fang Heng.
Fang Heng had just come to ask him about the details yesterday afternoon, and it was already done tonight?
He knew that Fang Heng was going to deal with Viona, and it was under the circumstances that Viona had obtained a portion of the Saintess' inheritance power!
However, Gu Luo never expected Fang Heng to be so fast, and he actually succeeded!
Teacher Gu Luo's expression turned grave. He slowly walked forward and stretched out his hand, gently pressing it on the Shrine of Bones that was levitating in midair.
A game notification flashed across Fang Heng's retina.
[Hint: Special character Gu Luo is attempting to sense and control the Shrine of Bones. Confirm permission.]
"Confirm."
Fang Heng thought to himself.
Teacher Gu Luo closed his eyes and sensed for a moment before he suddenly opened his eyes.
He stared at Fang Heng in disbelief.
Viona's soul!
That's right! It was indeed Viona's soul!
However, even Gu Luo did not expect Viona's soul power to be so strong!
Viona had already awakened at least 10% of the Saintess's inheritance!
Gu Luo wanted to ask Fang Heng how he did it!
Even if it was only one-eleventh of the inheritance power, the strength of this soul could already reach the demigod level!
Gu Luo's eyes gradually softened, and contained some excitement. He softly sighed, "Well done. With you guys around, there's hope for the revival of my necromancy studies."
In the room, Xu Xun and the others were delighted when they heard this.
On the way here, they had already heard Fang Heng talk about the drawbacks of using the Shrine of Bones.
It was very likely that Viona's soul could not be extracted, which meant they might fail the final mission.
From Gu Luo's tone, the mission had passed the review.
"However…"
Gu Luo changed the topic and frowned slightly.
"The Shrine of Bones is a little damaged. It will take some effort to extract Viona's soul completely…"
Xu Xun's heart sank.
Would there be trouble?
Milani bowed and said, "Teacher Gu Luo, we ran into some trouble while sealing Viona's soul. We had no choice but to use the Shrine of Bones to seal her, so we sincerely request your help. If you have any requests, please let us know. We'll do our best."
"Yes."
Teacher Gu Luo nodded and said, "Yes. In terms of the mission alone, you have completed it very well. Even if you completed it as a team, it has far exceeded my expectations. However, to complete the talent advancement, you still need to provide me with the corresponding brilliant crystals."
"Thank you, Teacher Gu Luo."
Hearing this, Xu Xun and the others heaved a sigh of relief and bowed in unison.
The biggest problem in the talent advancement mission was to obtain the high-level soul of the Holy Court.
Some were even stuck for as long as ten years!
Finally, it was completed. At this moment, everyone felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from their bodies.
"No need to be so polite. As for how much personal talent can be strengthened, it will depend on the tier of the crystal you give us."
Teacher Gu Luo waved his hand, indicating for everyone to stand up, "Talent enhancement is also related to the strength of your original talent. You've done very well this time, much better than I expected. Therefore, I'll give each of you an additional highest-tier brilliant crystal."
"Thank you, Teacher!"
Everyone couldn't help but be a little happy as they bowed again to thank him.
The highest-tier of the brilliant crystal!
It was very rare!
Even for them, it would take a few years to obtain one.
"Yes, all of you deserve this. When you have gathered the remaining brilliant crystals required for the advancement of your talent, you can come to me at any time to advance your talent. The others can go ahead with their work. Fang Heng, you stay here. I still have something to say to you."
Lord Dani and the others in the room bowed again.
"Thank you, Teacher! We will take our leave first."
Everyone nodded at Fang Heng and left.
After everyone left, Fang Heng looked at Teacher Gu Luo.
He was still a little puzzled. It seemed that Xu Xun and the others had completed the mission. Why hadn't he received a notification that the mission had been completed?
Could there be a follow-up?
Could it be related to the Shrine of Bones?
Would there be twists and turns again?
Fang Heng couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive. He asked, "Is there anything else I can do for you?"
"Yes."
With no outsiders around, Teacher Gu Luo's expression became even gentler. He sat back on his chair and waved his hand. He said, "Come, sit down, sit down, and talk slowly."
When Fang Heng sat down opposite him, Teacher Gu Luo's eyes flashed with praise as he slowly said, "The Shrine of Bones is in a damaged state and still has a huge flaw. It's a little difficult to use it to seal the soul. Of course, this isn't your fault. I didn't expect you to be able to nurture Viona's inheritance to such an extent."
"However, to completely extract Viona's soul, I still need to borrow your Shrine of Bones for some time. Are you willing?"
[Hint: Comprehensive assessment…]
[Hint: The current talent advancement guidance mission has been completed by forming a party. The individual contribution of the party is higher than 80%. The completion rate is 5,600%. As the player cannot remove the sealed soul, if the player refuses Gu Luo's request, the player's completion rate will be reduced to 4,500%.]
[Hint: Rejecting this request will not affect Teacher Gu Luo's friendliness.]
Fang Heng quickly scanned through the game notifications.
"Of course, no problem. Teacher, please take it."
The Shrine of Bones was not very useful to him, but it was worth it to exchange it for a mission completion rate of nearly 1000%!
"Yes… Shrine of Bones…"
Gu Luo held the levitating Shrine of Bones in his hand and examined it for a moment before putting it away.
He looked at Fang Heng again and asked, "Have you prepared the brilliant crystals needed to advance your talent?"
"It's ready, Teacher."
Fang Heng placed the three highest-tier brilliant crystals on the table in a row.

1629 Additional Challenge
Gu Luo smiled bitterly in his heart when he saw Fang Heng easily take out three of the highest-tier brilliant crystals.
Perfect-grade brilliant crystals were extremely rare. high-tier players would have to spend a lot of effort to find one, let alone normal people.
Fang Heng easily took out three crystals.
In addition to the one he had promised Fang Heng for free, he even had one more.
Fang Heng had completed his task too perfectly.
Originally, Gu Luo had thought that if Fang Heng did not have enough brilliant crystals, he could directly provide Fang Heng with all three brilliant crystals as an additional reward for the mission.
Unexpectedly…
Fang Heng saw the conflicted look on Gu Luo and could not help but ask, "Teacher? Is there anything else?"
"No, it's nothing. The brilliant crystal that I rewarded you can't be traded. I don't think you need it anymore, so I'm thinking about how to compensate you."
Gu Luo straightened his hunched body, his expression solemn.
"Let's talk about this later. Let's start enhancing our talent first. Relax and let go of your sea of consciousness."
"Yes, Teacher!"
Gu Luo gently stretched out his hand and pressed it on Fang Heng's forehead.
A game notification appeared on Fang Heng's retina.
[Hint: Settlement in progress. The player has submitted a special storyline character-Viona's soul. The storyline character's soul has been determined to be demigod-level… The player has perfectly completed the talent advancement guidance mission. Character completion rate: 5,600%. Rating: SSS.]
[Hint: Judging…]
[Hint: Judgement complete. Based on the player's current talent, please choose one of the following three perfect talent enhancement effects.]
Additional talent enhancement effect 1 (Passive, can be canceled): Life diversion.
Additional talent enhancement effect 2 (Passive, can be canceled): Mutant infection.
Additional talent enhancement effect 3 (Active, passive, can be canceled): High-efficiency evolution.
Fang Heng looked at the game notifications and frowned.
These three innate skills were all determined by the system to be the highest level of advancement.
The trouble was that, just like the first time he upgraded his talent, the system only provided him with a name. There was almost no explanation.
Fang Heng found it hard to judge their strength from their names.
It seemed like…
Would it be better to choose efficient evolution?
Fang Heng remembered that when he first evolved talent skill, there was also the option of "efficient evolution".
At first, he had chosen to multiply rapidly and increase the number of zombie clones by a large margin.
In terms of the final practical effect, Fang Heng was quite satisfied with his choice.
The explosive increase in the number of zombies had directly improved his various abilities.
On the other hand, he was not too sure about the specifics of the 'high-efficiency evolution'. After all, some skills might look scary, but their actual effects were very normal or even terrible.
Of course, the game's default options at this stage were all SSS-level rewards that were most suitable for talent enhancement, so they naturally wouldn't be bad.
But it might not be suitable for him.
Fang Heng fell into deep thought again.
Thus, it was time for the troublesome one-of-three segment.
Which one should he choose?
High-efficient evolution?
After all, this skill could be used both actively and passively. The other two were passive.
"Well? Is it hard to decide?"
Fang Heng was hesitating. He raised his head and looked at Teacher Gu Luo.
"Teacher, do you have any suggestions?"
"Fang Heng, you completed the mission I gave you perfectly, and your completion rate far exceeded my expectations. In return, I can give you an additional reward test."
Fang Heng raised his eyebrows.
"Of course, please instruct me, Teacher."
"You must know that the reward for the Level 40 perfect talent advancement mission is to choose one of the two options after you choose today."
Teacher Gu Luo said slowly, "The content of the test I'm giving you is very simple. I'll give you a month's time. Within a month, raise your character level to Level 40. At that time, when you undergo your third talent advancement, you can directly come to me. I'll exempt you from the Level 40 talent advancement mission and pay you according to the completion rate of the highest level."
Gu Luo's face was gentle as he continued, "Not only that, but you can also obtain the remaining two talent enhancement effects at the same time."
[Hint: Due to the player's perfect completion of the mission, the player has obtained a special reward mission-level-up challenge. This mission cannot be abandoned. If the mission is not completed after the time is up, the mission will fail.]
Mission title: Level-up challenge.
Mission description: You have completed the advancement mission perfectly and received a reward. Please level up your character to Level 40 within 30 days.
Mission reward: Complete the Level 40 talent advancement mission with the highest rating and obtain the remaining two highest-level talent enhancement effects.
Penalty for failure: None.
Fang Heng's pupils constricted when he saw the game notification.
There was such a good thing?
Working hard to reach the highest level of mission completion was indeed worth it!
Originally, when he was Level 40 and had his talent enhanced for the third time, he would have to accept the game's difficulties again.
Now, not only could he avoid the Level 40 talent advancement mission, but he could also obtain an additional talent enhancement effect!
The only thing he needed to do was to reach Level 40 within a month!
Was it difficult?
Fang Heng felt that it was not difficult.
One had to know that the talent advancement mission was extremely troublesome. Moreover, one had to obtain an SSS-level evaluation, which increased the difficulty by hundreds of times.
In comparison, reaching Level 40 within a month was more to his liking.
After all, he had his zombie clones and had more ways to complete missions than other normal players!
Not to mention, after reaching Level 40, he could also obtain an additional perfect level talent advancement reward!
Fang Heng's heart started to beat wildly.
Complete it!
He had to complete it no matter what!
If he couldn't complete it in the intermediate game, he would complete it in the advanced game world!
It wasn't like he hadn't been to the advanced game world before.
It was very dangerous, but it was just like that!
Fang Heng kept his excitement and his eyes gradually calmed down.
"Thank you for your trust in me, Teacher. I will definitely work hard to complete it!"
"You're welcome. This is what you deserve."
Teacher Gu Luo smiled and replied, "Now, you can make your choice."
"Yes."
Fang Heng calmed himself down and looked at the talent enhancement options on his retina again.
Which one to choose?
It was too difficult to choose.
Forget it, he would be able to strengthen the remaining two talents soon anyway. He would just randomly choose one for now!
Fang Heng no longer hesitated and chose a strengthening plan with an intimidating name.
High-efficiency evolution.
It sounded like it was related to the evolution of the zombie clones.
It was it!
It was the only skill that could be released automatically!
"Teacher, I choose efficient evolution."
"Not a bad choice. Close your eyes and don't resist."
Teacher Gu Luo nodded approvingly, and a gentle light blossomed from his hand.

1630 Efficient Evolution
Fang Heng closed his eyes and a game hint appeared on his retina.
[Hint: The player has chosen the Level 30 talent enhancement option-efficient evolution.]
[Hint: The player's passive zombie clone has obtained a special skill effect-efficient evolution.]
Talent enhancement effect: Efficient evolution.
Description: The player will receive a special energy bar. The player can absorb some items that contain energy to charge the energy bar. The energy stored in the energy bar can only be used for efficient evolution effects (after death, the remaining energy in the energy bar will be emptied by default).
Effect 1 (Passive effect): The player's zombie clone will gain an additional 20% success rate during evolution, an additional 50% reduction in consumption, and an additional 200% increase in evolution speed. The player can choose to consume energy from the energy bar to speed up the evolution process, increasing evolution speed by up to 5000%.
Effect 2 (Active release): Your zombie clone will obtain up to 5 evolution options. After the player chooses the evolution direction and consumes energy, the zombie clone will form a cocoon with 200% defense and 100% HP of the player. After a period of time, the zombie clone will break out of the cocoon and evolve into the corresponding form. (Evolution time and energy consumption depend on the intensity of evolution. The player can consume additional energy to accelerate this process. The conversion speed can be increased by up to 5000%).]
Skill additional description: When your zombie clone completes a complete evolution, the player can obtain this evolution option. Each zombie clone can record up to 5 evolution options and can be rewritten. After death and rebirth, the evolution option will not be reset.
Fang Heng unconsciously frowned.
The first passive effect was easy to understand. The efficiency of the zombie clone would be greatly increased when it evolved in the future.
This matched the name very well.
As for the effect, Fang Heng was a little confused.
It was only after reading it three times that he roughly understood the meaning of the skill.
A simple understanding.
The zombie clone could store multiple forms at the same time.
For example, the initial normal form could be used for digging and gathering, and then there was the Licker form and the fusion Tyrant form.
With talent enhancement, the zombie clone could complete the evolution and change its form in a short period of time.
It was similar to him constantly switching academic forms.
The prerequisite was that the zombie clone had to undergo the transformation of the Licker and the fusion Tyrant form.
The specific situation still required some tests to confirm if there was any mistake in his understanding.
Teacher Gu Luo looked at Fang Heng and asked, "How is it?"
Fang Heng slowly opened his eyes and nodded. He said, "Thank you, Teacher. I have some understanding of talent enhancement. I still need to go through some actual combat tests."
"Yes, go. Don't forget about the special mission. You only have a month. At that time, I will return the Shrine of Bones to you. If everything goes well, I might have other important missions for you."
"I will definitely not disappoint Teacher."
Fang Heng stood up and bowed slightly to Teacher Gu Luo before leaving quickly.
He had to go find a place to test out his new skill!
Fang Heng's heart itched.
Just as he walked out of the Tower of Bones, Fang Heng saw Xu Xun and the others gathered in a corner waiting for him.
When they saw Fang Heng walking over, they surrounded him.
"Fang Heng, we will remember this matter in our hearts. We just discussed it and we all owe you a favor. If you encounter any problems in the future, you can come to us and we will do our best."
"It's been a pleasure working with all of you. We'll continue to work together next time."
"Definitely."
Xu Xun nodded at Fang Heng.
Everyone knew very well that Fang Heng had contributed greatly to the smooth completion of the mission. They had completed the mission in just two days, far exceeding their expectations.
Thanks to Fang Heng, they even sealed Viona's soul, which had awakened part of the Saintess' inheritance, and obtained a piece of the highest-tier brilliant crystal from Teacher Gu Luo.
After thinking about it, everyone felt that they had gained a huge advantage.
"In addition, the matter regarding Viona is a little tricky. The Saintess has a special identity. Once the Holy Court finds out, it will be extremely troublesome. We just discussed it and only a few of us know about the talent mission."
Fang Heng's expression was solemn as he nodded and said, "Yes."
"We'll meet again if fate permits."
A few of them called out and quickly separated outside the Tower of Bones.
Xu Xun and the others were mostly concerned about upgrading their talent.
Now that the mission was complete, he just needed to find a way to gather the brilliant crystals.
Since he already had the highest-level brilliant crystal, he would naturally try to find a way to obtain the highest-level perfect enhancement.
As for what exactly Fang Heng had said to Teacher Gu Luo after staying behind to talk for so long, although everyone was a little curious, they did not ask.
In the game world, everyone had secrets.
Fang Heng also left the Tower of Bones. Soon, he and Milani entered a random inn, asked for a room, and immediately exited the game world of Punoze.
Go home!
Hurry up and try out his new talent Skill!
…
In the prison of the Zombie Apocalypse, Mo Jiawei waited anxiously by the portal.
He had just returned from drinking tea at the Central Federation in the morning and missed the final battle with Viona.
When Fang Heng's figure gradually appeared in the air, it rushed over.
"Fang Heng, you're back? How's Viona? Was there an accident? Have you settled her?
"Yes, there was a small accident during the process, but it was resolved perfectly in the end."
"Phew!"
Mo Jiawei heaved a sigh of relief and gave Fang Heng a thumbs up, "Awesome!"
Mo Jiawei had also come up with a plan to deal with Viona.
Unfortunately, he did not participate in the end.
Fang Heng touched the great holy sword on his back.
The holy weapon had a special attribute and could not be placed in his backpack. It even followed him through the teleportation channel to return to the Zombie Apocalypse.
Moreover, the holy artifact could theoretically be brought back to the real world.
Thinking about it, bringing a holy artifact from the holy realm with him was too eye-catching.
Furthermore, he was unable to control the power of the holy artifact at the moment. If the people of the Holy Court saw it, it would instead cause some trouble.
It would be better to temporarily place them in the Zombie Apocalypse.
When he had time, he would think of a way to control the holy artifact.
Mo Jiawei felt a strange itch in his heart. Curious, he asked, "Fang Heng, what about the talent enhancement promotion? Is it also completed?"
"Yes, that's right."
Mo Jiawei's interest was piqued. He asked, "What are the effects?"
"Don't be too anxious. Let's go to the square and test it out. Let Qiu Yaokang come and take a look."
Fang Heng said and called an NPC to invite Qiu Yaokang to go to the prison square with him.
"Come, follow me to the warehouse first. Take me to see if there's any energy that can be absorbed."
After his talent changed, Fang Heng found that he had a special energy bar.
The energy bar was only used for the zombie clone to use the special ability of efficient evolution.
Fang Heng roughly understood that the efficient evolution of the zombie clone required energy consumption, so he became a charging battery.
Therefore, he had to recharge himself before testing the skill.

1631 The Effect
Ten minutes later, all the irrelevant personnel in the prison square were cleared, leaving only a few Lickers summoned by Fang Heng.
Fang Heng followed Mo Jiawei to the warehouse to test the materials.
Most materials that contained energy could not be absorbed. Only a few refined energy ores could be used.
The effect was also very ordinary.
The skill provided a total of twelve energy slots. After trying all of them, he realized that they could only increase his energy by a little.
Only the cosmic crystal was effective.
After absorbing a box of cosmic crystals, half a grid of energy was filled.
Fang Heng felt that Starfish Company was fair in doing business.
The cosmic crystals were worth it.
Soon, Qiu Yaokang, accompanied by several researchers, arrived at the square behind the prison.
He had not seen Fang Heng for a while.
Previously, he had obtained the liquid of Hell Faram from Fang Heng through his subordinates.
It was a special life form that had never been found on the planet!
Its structure was extremely strange.
Qiu Yaokang felt like he had opened the door to a new world after his research.
He had been researching for several nights without eating or sleeping.
He was a little impatient when he heard Fang Heng call him over in a hurry.
His current interest was focused on studying Hell Faram and was extremely fascinated by this unknown life form.
Qiu Yaokang saw Fang Heng and nodded at him. He was still thinking about the experiment just now and couldn't help but ask, "What's the rush? I'm halfway through my research, so I have to hurry back."
"Yeah, it won't take long. The zombie clone has some new changes, so I asked you to come over and give some advice."
"Oh?"
Qiu Yaokang's attention was piqued after hearing Fang Heng and his eyes revealed a hint of interest as he raised his head to look at the Licker in the square.
"Show me?"
"Yes."
Fang Heng took half a step forward and controlled the Licker to use the skill of "efficient evolution."
"Ka…"
Under the gazes of the surrounding researchers, the Licker in the middle of the square slowly curled up. Its body quickly secreted a layer of sticky brown substance, quickly forming a cocoon on the spot.
The flesh cocoon was about half a meter tall and was beating rhythmically like a heart. It was as if something was being nurtured inside.
Hmm?
Qiu Yaokang narrowed his eyes and observed the condition of the flesh cocoon with interest. He even took a few steps forward, seemingly trying to poke the flesh cocoon with the tip of his pen.
Thump! Thump!
However, the flesh cocoon started to beat faster!
"Chi!!"
Before Qiu Yaokang could get close, a hole appeared in the flesh cocoon. A greenish-gray palm reached out from the flesh cocoon. Following that, an ordinary zombie slowly crawled out of the cocoon.
[Hint: The player's Licker has completed the status change. Status: zombie clone-normal].
"Oh?"
Qiu Yaokang stopped and looked at the ordinary zombie. He stood there and seemed to be thinking.
He rubbed his chin and turned to look at Fang Heng.
"Initialized zombie form?"
"No, to be precise, it's the conversion of various forms."
Through the experiment and the game hints, Fang Heng confirmed his guess.
The active effect of the "efficient evolution" skill was to switch forms.
In the past, after ordinary zombies evolved into Lickers or merged to become fusion Tyrant forms, they could not be reverted to their original form. They could only evolve further on the foundation.
For example, from an ordinary zombie to a vine zombie, then to a Tyrant form that had fused with vines, and finally to a fusion Tyrant form that had fused with the primogenitor virus.
It has to evolve one step at a time.
Now, Fang Heng could switch between various forms quickly.
There were two conditions for the switch.
The first was energy consumption.
Secondly, the zombie clone had to undergo the transformation once and be successfully recorded.
After the zombie clone was born, it transformed into a Licker. Therefore, it could only switch between its Licker and normal form.
In addition, there was a limit to the number of forms that could be switched. At most, there could only be five forms that could be switched.
Five was already enough!
Fang Heng pondered.
In the previous test, it only took less than 10 seconds for a Licker to transform into a normal zombie clone.
If it consumed extra energy, it would be even faster!
Moreover, the energy consumption was not too much. The energy in the energy slot had only decreased by a little and it was possible to transform a large number of forms!
"I see. Quickly switch between various forms to deal with different states… The transformation of this energy body should consume energy…"
Qiu Yaokang listened to Fang Heng's explanation and whispered softly. He quickly wrote and drew in his notebook. He raised his head and asked, "What are the conditions for obtaining a change in form?"
Fang Heng explained, "It's a successful form transformation. After that, the form will be automatically recorded. However, there are only five forms that can be recorded at most."
Qiu Yaokang nodded and praised, "Interesting."
In order to confirm his judgment, Fang Heng continued to try to get another fusion Tyrant form to walk over and switch to the vine clone.
"Chi chi chi…"
Layers of thick gel appeared on the fusion Tyrant form, quickly forming a huge flesh cocoon on the spot. The flesh cocoon quickly shriveled up and about ten seconds later, the vine zombie crawled out of the dried flesh cocoon.
After every evolution, the status of the zombie clone would be cleared and its HP would be fully restored.
It was a good enhancement ability.
Fang Heng licked his lips. As long as there was enough energy supply, his zombie clone's adaptability would be greatly enhanced!
Fang Heng did an estimate. At present, there were only a few types of zombie clones that he could modify.
A normal zombie form that could provide support skills such as digging, building, gathering, and leveling; the Licker form was good at climbing and adapting to various special terrains; the vine zombie form to deal with special situations; the useless ghost claw form and finally, the most powerful fusion Tyrant form, which was the best at fighting head-on!
With talent enhancement, they could switch between these forms at any time!
Fang Heng shifted his gaze to Qiu Yaokang.
"With the current capability of the research institute, how long will it take for a zombie clone to transform into all forms?"
Qiu Yaokang thought for a while and nodded, "It will take about half a month. The ghost claw form, the Licker form, and the vine zombie form are not a problem. As for the fusion Tyrant form, considering the success rate, the current materials can only be used to prepare about 100 zombie clones."
"That's enough. Let's get ready. First, we'll transform the Licker and the vine zombie form. Then, we'll experiment with the fusion Tyrant form."
"Yes, I'll arrange it. We can start tonight."
Qiu Yaokang nodded and drew a few circles in his notebook. He added, "In addition, I need to apply for a batch of resources to assist in the research and development of the zombie form of Hell Faram."
At the mention of Hell Faram, Qiu Yaokang's eyes lit up.

1632 The Plan
"There are already some research and development projects underway. The sample of the Seed of Hell Faram that you obtained is very interesting. As I said, I need a lot of resources to assist in my research."
"Alright, I'll try my best to provide them. I'll have to trouble you with the modification of the zombie clone."
Fang Heng nodded.
He was already starting to imagine the scene in his mind.
In the past, although the fusion Tyrant form was strong, its size was too large and it was greatly restricted. It felt like it was not agile enough to be used.
Now, he could use the agility of the Licker form to quickly approach the enemy. As the Lickers fought and invaded the enemy's lair…
Suddenly, the 100 Lickers turned into 100 fusion Tyrant forms.
Presumably, the enemy would be very surprised!
So exciting!
The only thing he had to worry about was energy consumption.
He had just tried to switch the status of his zombie clone a few times, and his energy slot had only decreased slightly.
It just so happened that he had obtained quite a number of cosmic crystals through Starfish Company. He would absorb all of them first. It was probably enough for him to squander for a few months.
"Yawn…"
Fang Heng couldn't help but yawn.
The talent advancement mission was finally completed. After the extreme excitement, a strong sense of fatigue gradually overtook him.
It was time to take a good rest.
Just as Fang Heng was about to go offline and sleep, Qiu Yaokang took a stack of documents from his lab assistant and handed them over.
"Hmm? What is this?"
Fang Heng took the report and flipped through it. He immediately felt a headache when he saw the densely packed charts and data analysis.
He couldn't understand them!
"The previous research report has a current report on the 'original devouring body'."
Fang Heng's spirits were lifted.
The original devouring body.
It was a lifeform that he had encountered in the barbarian realm in the intermediate game world.
It had powerful effects such as unlimited resurrection and black fusion mucus.
Fang Heng had seen many variations of the original devouring body in the barbarian realm.
If this thing could be used on the zombie clone, it would definitely be good!
"How is it? Could it fuse it with the zombie clone?"
"It is determined that it is similar to the virus in the zombie's body and belongs to the same species as the virus in your body. After the original devouring body sample was replicated, it was found that it could not be activated. After the replication, the original main body lost its activity."
Previously, Qiu Yaokang had been researching for a long time, but the research on the original devouring body had stagnated.
He felt that he was missing a necessary link.
If he continued to act recklessly, it would be a pure waste of time.
Qiu Yaokang adjusted his glasses and continued, "If we can find a way to activate it, we might be able to complete the mutation of the original devouring body."
"Activate…"
Fang Heng muttered to himself. When he recalled the situation when he encountered the original devouring body, there was no such thing as activation…
"So to answer your question, the answer is no. Unless you can find more clues related to its activation."
Alright then, Fang Heng had no choice but to accept this reality.
After the original devouring body was destroyed, it would be difficult to find any clues.
He could only think of a way in the future.
Go offline! Sleep!
…
Fang Heng slept very soundly this time. He slept for two days and one night. When he woke up, he immediately felt hungry.
"Let's find something to eat."
Fang Heng asked for lunch from the necromancy attendant through the intercom and ate it in his room.
As he ate, he opened the webpage and logged into the forum as per his usual habit. He began to browse the latest in-game news.
The biggest piece of good news was that the Holy Court still did not know that Viona's soul had been sealed.
To some extent, Lord Dani helped him take the blame.
Using Viona's disappearance as an excuse, the Holy Court issued a holy punishment on the world where Lord Dani was.
Other than that, the outside world was still as calm as before.
On the other hand, the news about the eruption of the shady line source in Punoze on the Internet caused some discussion.
Fang Heng found that his name was on the forum again.
However, the majority of the players in the game were still novice players. They were all struggling in the elementary game.
The heated discussion only lasted for a few hours before it subsided.
It was worth mentioning that a new elementary game world had recently been born. Most of the players' attention was focused on that place.
The Federation's recent focus was mostly on this game world too.
Moreover, Punoze was a hidden game world, and it was related to the study of necromancy. Normal players were naturally not that interested in it.
The discussion was not as heated as the last time he occupied the world of vampires.
Fang Heng looked at the information related to Punoze.
Ever since the explosion at the source of the shady line, the necromancers had tried to enter Frost Hell to explore and carry out missions.
There didn't seem to be any special progress at the moment.
The rest of the news was very ordinary.
Fang Heng flipped down a few more pages, closed the page, and stretched lazily.
Now, he finally had a chance to catch his breath.
As for the main storyline of the Frost Hell…
"I will endure for the time being and not cause trouble…"
Fang Heng once again reminded himself of his recent actions.
Fang Heng instinctively felt frustrated when he thought about how he would have to face the countless players who would scheme against him after he finished the main storyline mission.
There was no hurry.
Ordinary players had yet to explore the depths of Frost Hell. They didn't even know about the rift. There was still some time before they caught up.
The main storyline mission could be pushed back for now.
He could also put aside the holy realm's holy artifact, the Voice of Heaven, that he had obtained along the way.
In short, there were two most important things in front of him.
The first thing was to increase his strength.
The second thing was also to increase his strength!
The threat that he was currently facing was the pollution in his sea of consciousness.
There was half a year left.
This meant that in half a year, he would most likely return to the advanced game world, Watts, to fight the Tongues of Jealousy!
The hidden threat was the Holy Court!
Fang Heng felt that with the Holy Court's ability, it was only a matter of time before they discovered that Viona's death was related to him.
Even if they couldn't find him, the existence of the sacred tree Abe Akaya and the inheritance of the vampires would make the Holy Court pursue him.
Therefore, he had to go back as soon as possible to complete the transplant of the sacred tree, Abe Akaya.
There was also…
Fang Heng's brows unconsciously furrowed tightly.
He was not willing to face that person.
Xia Xi.
From the remnants of his memory, he could clearly see that the person who held the ritual for him was Xia Xi.
So, Xia Xi was a follower of hell?
When he thought of Xia Xi's face, Fang Heng felt a faint fear in his heart.
It was better to stay as far away from her as possible!
In short, the short-term goal at this stage was to strengthen himself.
It could be summarized in one word.
Work!
Gain experience points!
Upgrade to Level 40 in a month!
He had tried it before. The additional effect of the Level 40 talent enhancement was very good and it was very flexible when using it.
He had to get the other two enhanced talent options as well!
Time-limited missions were prioritized!

1633 Target Location
In addition to that, he also needed to gain experience points!
The omniscient eye added various skills, such as natural science, elemental science, spatial science…
He had learned all of them in one passing!
There was more.
The vampire bloodline was still far from the final advancement to the Vampire King bloodline and required the blood of many high-tier creatures
He had to continue to work hard!
Considering the efficiency, the strength of the blood of the creatures in a normal mid-tier game world was a little insufficient.
Fang Heng licked his lips and pondered carefully.
If it was not for the one-month countdown and the pollution in his sea of consciousness, he would be happy to slowly work in the intermediate game world.
After all, it was safe.
But now…
The efficiency was too low.
It was still uncertain if the creatures in the mid-tier game world could allow him to reach Level 40 within a month.
Oh, right.
Deducting the two days he spent sleeping, he only had less than 28 days left…
Fang Heng rubbed his hair.
He told himself not to panic.
With the zombie clones around, as long as he found a suitable opportunity, he could still gain some benefits very quickly.
He would go consult someone first.
What if there was a suitable place to gain experience in the intermediate game world?
At that time, he would not have to take the risk.
It would be best if he could find a place where he could earn all kinds of academic skill experience points, character experience points, and high-level blood.
Fang Heng's interest was piqued. He opened the unofficial website that Old Black had given him and skillfully entered the password to log in.
He could ask Old Black for his opinion.
After logging into the website, Fang Heng quickly browsed through it.
During the day, the number of people who were online was far less than at night.
Fang Heng skimmed through it.
Most of the players on the forum were in the intermediate game world.
The ratio of advanced game world players to intermediate game world players was about two to eight.
This was already an extremely terrifying number.
Old Black didn't seem to be online.
Fang Heng left a message for Old Black, then started browsing the forum with interest. He checked the information on various intermediate game worlds and the distribution of monsters to find suitable prey.
He was a little addicted to it.
Unofficial websites were always interesting. He could get a lot of valuable information from the players' discussions.
Time flew by quickly.
Fang Heng kept clicking the mouse.
In the blink of an eye, the sky gradually darkened.
After browsing for an afternoon, Fang Heng realized that there were very few places in the intermediate-game world where powerful creatures existed.
It was not suitable for him to gain experience.
It would be too dangerous if he switched to the advanced game world.
It was a little awkward to be stuck in the middle.
As he was thinking, a message appeared on the bottom right corner of the forum screen.
Old Black! He was online!
Fang Heng quickly clicked on the chat box.
"Fang Heng! Did you cause a big commotion these few days? Hehe, the outside world is curious about the situation in Frost Hell. If you reveal what happened inside, this information can be exchanged for a lot of money."
Fang Heng pursed his lips.
He had his own thoughts about Punoze's main storyline mission, so he naturally wasn't willing to reveal it.
He would 'torture' the other players for a while longer.
"No need for that. There's something I need to talk to you about."
Fang Heng quickly typed his message, telling Old Black about his plan to level up and asking him to find a place to level up.
Old Black paused for a moment before he replied.
"Is that so? Just nice. I just noticed a commission two days ago and felt that it is very suitable for you."
"Hmm? What is it?"
"Hehe, exploring an unknown high-level world."
Unknown high-level world?
Fang Heng immediately showed interest and quickly typed: "Tell me in detail."
"A group of players completed a mission and accidentally discovered a passage to an unknown high-level game world. After entering the high-level game world, they realized that it was not something they could handle, so they cleverly handed the mission to the Federation in exchange for a reward."
"Due to the team encountering some problems during their initial exploration, the teleportation passage has been completely opened."
"After the Federation took over the mission, they immediately began to explore and develop the new world. There are rumors that they received some missions and encountered quite a bit of trouble during the exploration phase. They are now recruiting large player teams to help. Oh right, it's the Western District Federation. You have interacted with them before."
Fang Heng frowned as he listened.
Just now, he was wondering why the Federation would announce such an important matter to the public and even recruit people.
It turned out to be the Western District Federation which was secretly controlled by the twelve corporations.
This was not strange.
The Western District Federation had always had this habit of spending money to hire players to do things.
"As for the price, the Western District Federation has already given us the specific power of attorney, personal accident insurance, and commission points. I've roughly flipped through them, and they're not bad."
Old Black paused for a moment before continuing to type.
"Are you interested?"
"Yes!"
Fang Heng answered firmly.
Because of his identity as a World Lord, he could not easily enter the advanced game world like other players.
Presently, he could only enter Watts.
Unfortunately, it was too dangerous to go to Watts. He wasn't ready to fight the Tongues of Jealousy head-on.
Before his strength accumulated to a certain extent, he had to temporarily avoid showing himself.
It was not easy to find another channel to the advanced game world, so Fang Heng naturally wanted to give it a try.
"Hahaha, that's for the best. I happen to have something I want to ask you for help with, so we can discuss it together."
"You sure have a good motive. What's the matter?"
"I've received a related commission. I'll be sending a team to that world, so I'll be borrowing your teleportation passage. Oh right, there's also the Starfish Company. They're also interested in borrowing your world's passage to enter that world. They'll provide you with the price tonight. Personally, I think the price is very good. I suggest you consider it."
Fang Heng felt puzzled and typed: "The Federation didn't provide a passage?"
"Yes, coincidentally, the passage is set up in the Vampire Apocalypse that you provided to the Western District Federation. However, as you know, it's not very convenient to use the passage set up by the Federation."
Old Black typed quickly, "Entering that world through the Federation's passage will require strict checks on your identity in advance. It's very troublesome. I suggest you don't enter through the official passage either. After all, your relationship with the Western District Federation isn't that good. Remember to hide your identity while you're at it."
"The other twelve corporations also have special passages to enter the high-level world, so as long as we find a way to sneak into that world, there won't be any more internal inspections."
"Alright, I understand."
The two of them quickly typed and discussed some details. They decided to gather and set off tomorrow afternoon.
Fang Heng was about to leave when he noticed that the chat box in the lower right corner popped up again.
"Fang Heng?"
"Are you still there?"
Eh?
It was actually her?
Yu Jiayuan.
A high-level player who had been corrupted in the game world of Watts
Fang Heng felt that Yu Jiayuan was also quite miserable. The last time she followed him, she was in deep trouble. In the end, her body was contaminated by the 'Tongues of Jealousy'.

1634 Successful Transplantation
During this period of time, Yu Jiayuan had been actively trying to contact Fang Heng after settling down.
When she finally saw that Fang Heng was online, she sent several messages in a row.
"Fang Heng?"
Fang Heng opened the chat box and quickly replied, "Yes, I had something to do earlier. It's almost settled now. How's the situation on your side?"
In front of the computer, Yu Jiayuan straightened her body when she saw Fang Heng's response. She quickly explained the situation in the world of Watts.
In general, the situation had become very bad.
Ever since Fang Heng left, she had followed Luo Xu back to Fallen Ones' camp.
In fact, the Fallen Ones were not completely unified.
The group of people led by Luo Xu was not willing to be controlled by Tongues of Jealousy. They had secretly accumulated their strength, and this time, they were completely exposed.
However, most of the Fallen Ones had already accepted their fate.
Since their own source of pollution was being controlled by the Tongues of Jealousy, they might as well listen to it.
Anyway, they were all marionettes. It didn't matter who they listened to.
In fact, a large portion of the Fallen Ones had been polluted by the Tongues of Jealousy.
Luo Xu and the others were hiding everywhere. The few underground strongholds that they originally had were also gradually falling. They had already hidden at the edge of the mountains and had just settled down.
As time passed, it was assumed that the situation would only get worse.
In addition, they had collected most of the tools related to the magic array used to track Gluttony.
It was estimated that it would be done in half a month.
In short, the entire world of Watts was searching for Fang Heng, especially the people of the Revolution Society.
After talking with Yu Jiayuan, Fang Heng felt a sense of urgency in his heart.
The longer this dragged on, the situation in Watts would get even worse.
He had to increase his strength as soon as possible!
There was no time to waste!
Fang Heng felt some pressure.
The last time he faced the Tongues of Jealousy, he was crushed before the latter's true form was fully revealed.
The other party was extremely powerful.
Fang Heng comforted Yu Jiayuan and exchanged their contact information.
After some thought, Fang Heng returned to the game world.
Tomorrow, he would head to the unknown New World. He would take advantage of tonight to complete the transplant of the sacred tree, Abe Akaya!
…
At noon the next day, in the Zombie Apocalypse, on a hill outside the prison, a young sapling was growing rapidly.
The tree trunk gradually became thicker and thicker, and a large number of branches quickly extended out from the trunk.
The roots of the tree were deeply rooted into the ground.
In the blink of an eye, the space above Fang Heng's head was covered by the dome of the giant tree.
The green vines quickly enveloped the outside world!
The height of the sacred tree continued to increase!
After being awakened, Abe Akaya quickly expanded outwards!
Cleriway stood in front of the sacred tree, her hands balled into fists as she kneeled on the ground and chanted a spell.
The power of nature was constantly being stimulated outwards.
She felt the same gentleness and tolerance from Abe Akaya as described in the inheritance of the ancient tree of life, as well as its exuberant vitality.
The ancient tree of life was the source of the elves and possessed immense power and also provided protection to the elves.
In the blink of an eye, a towering tree that reached straight into the clouds appeared on the high hill square!
Fang Heng tried to communicate with Abe Akaya.
Soon, a joyful response came from Abe Akaya.
From the feedback from Abe Akaya, the transplant was completed very smoothly.
During the transfer process, in order to enter the teleportation passage, it had no choice but to weaken its own strength, leaving less than one percent of its strength.
Now that the transplant was complete, it would still take some time for it to fully recover to its peak condition when it was in the barbarian realm.
Fang Heng raised his head and looked at the green vines that were rapidly spreading out in the distance.
With the help of Abe Akaya, the protection ability of the Zombie Apocalypse had once again improved!
But…
It didn't seem to be of much use.
Because of the limitations of the Zombie Apocalypse, no one came to attack him…
Beside him, Cleriway slowly stood up.
Including the initial preparations, it took an entire day to move the sacred tree.
During this period, she would need to continuously supply natural energy to Abe Akaya, and the consumption was very high.
"Are you alright?"
"Yes, thank you, Brother Fang Heng. It's okay. I'll recover after a few days of rest."
A tired look appeared on Cleriway's face.
"Do you want to rest first?"
Cleriway looked at Fang Heng and hesitated.
Judging from Abe Akaya's condition, she was even more certain that it was the ancient tree of life.
But why was Fang Heng so sure that it wasn't?
Perhaps she should ask her teacher?
Or find another opportunity to return to that place…
"What's wrong?"
Cleriway came back to her sense and replied, "Nothing, it's fine."
As the transplant was completed, a line of game notifications appeared in Fang Heng's vision.
[Hint: Detected that a special species has been implanted in the player's current world.]
[Hint: This species has achieved soul-sharing with the player. It is bound to the World Lord by default. Judgment in progress…]
[Hint: The player's game world level has reached the intermediate level (Level 27).]
[Hint: The maximum potential of the world creature under the player's control has been raised to Level 27.]
Fang Heng glanced at the game prompt and quickly communicated with Abe Akaya to roughly set a few rules.
Intercepting anyone who was hostile to the prison headquarters and cooperating with the prison to transport some of the supplies.
The vines could not spread into the prison.
As for the expansion of the outer forest, it was temporarily limited to ten times the territory of the barbarians in the game world.
After dealing with Abe Akaya, Fang Heng hurriedly followed Mo Jiawei back to the prison square.
…
On the prison square, there was a dense layer of flesh cocoons.
Alto, the chief researcher that Qiu Yaokang had personally recruited and trained, carefully reported the progress of yesterday's work to Fang Heng.
The success rate of the transformation was about 20% higher than the original estimate.
The first batch of zombies that had completed the transformation of the fusion Tyrant form had a total of twenty zombies.
Including the previous successful clones, Fang Heng currently had a total of 35 zombie clones that had a record of the evolution of the fusion Tyrant form.
All 2,187 clones had completed the evolution record of the vine zombies whereas 1,102 zombie clones completed the evolution record of the Lickers.
Due to the large number of zombie clones that needed to be transformed at the moment, some of the materials were in short supply. He estimated that he would have to wait for the next batch of materials to arrive before he could carry out the subsequent transformation.
Mo Jiawei said, "I've been preparing the materials and I've found the Eastern Federation and the Starfish Company to exchange for them with our spare resources. They'll be moved to the prison warehouse in a few days. If everything goes well, they'll be ready in three days."
"Alright."
Fang Heng listened and nodded repeatedly.
In fact, the situation was even worse than what Alto had described.
Fang Heng received a game selection prompt when he went online which asked if he wanted to solidify and record the transformation state.
Then, Fang Heng realized a problem that he had neglected earlier.
He didn't have enough King of Gods' points!

1635 Lack of Money
The state needed to be solidified first before the talent recorded the evolution state.
Besides a large number of survival points, he also needed King of Gods' points to solidify the zombie clone's form!
Helplessly, Fang Heng could only choose to solidify the new 20 fusion Tyrant forms and 522 Lickers.
Thus, the state of the remaining Lickers was not solidified, hence after death, they would return to their normal zombie forms.
Fang Heng was glad that he had chosen the 'efficient evolution' talent enhancement effect earlier on which helped to reduce the evolution consumption.
Otherwise, as he leveled up, the materials needed for the evolution of the Licker and fusion Tyrant form would be a huge expense, especially the King of Gods' points!
This thing was particularly difficult to obtain and could not be traded in large quantities from players.
It was already very troublesome when he had to pay off his previous debts.
Fang Heng pondered. It would be best if he could earn some King of Gods' points in this new game world.
"There's one more thing to farm…"
Fang Heng muttered to himself.
All in all, the current zombie clone's strength had greatly increased!
He was ready to fight!
With a zombie clone that could quickly switch states, he had more confidence in entering the advanced game world.
Fang Heng tried to familiarize himself with the rapid evolution of the zombie clone for a while. Soon, a prison warden came to report to Fang Heng.
The warden bowed respectfully and reported, "Master, the people from Starfish Company have arrived. As per your instructions, they have been brought to the teleportation hall to wait."
"Alright, let's go together."
Fang Heng and Mo Jiawei arrived at the teleportation hall together.
Starfish Company's partner, Hector, personally brought a group of people over.
According to the agreement last night, this time, it was going to be led by Hector himself to bring a group of people to the unknown advanced game world.
Seeing Fang Heng walking over, a smile immediately appeared on his face, and he walked up to greet him.
Fang Heng!
Big customer, and a very strong player!
"Haha, Fang Heng, long time no see. Last time, you made a fortune in Watts. Thanks to you, we also made quite a bit. I heard that you're planning to sell the Phoenix Firs. So the thing is also in your hands, and you even repaired it? That thing is very valuable. Leave it to us to deal with it. I guarantee that you won't lose anything…"
Fang Heng replied with a smile, then shifted his gaze to the group of more than 50 players behind Hector and asked, "You guys are also interested in the New World?"
"Look at what you're saying. When there's a business opportunity, we'll be there."
After saying that with a smile, he lowered his voice and leaned over to Fang Heng to explain, "Don't forget, our Starfish Company is the world's largest resource trading company. When we discover a new world, we must find a way to explore the reserves and distribution of this world's resources and find a way to obtain first-hand information."
"If possible, I'll need to use your world passage to collect and transport them. This isn't our first time working together, so the price will satisfy you."
Hearing that there was money to be made, Fang Heng smiled and nodded.
The newly modified zombie clone was strong, but it was also a gold-devouring beast!
It would cost him a huge amount of resources, funds, and King of Gods' points to complete all the modifications.
Not to mention, when he leveled up, he would have thousands of zombie clones.
At that time, the amount of resources consumed would be huge.
When it was time to make money, he had to make money!
From the past few collaborations, Starfish Company was a good partner.
They were very professional.
As he spoke, the teleportation passage in the hall lit up again.
Old Black and his men entered the hall through the portal.
In comparison, Old Black's team was much simpler. Everyone he brought was wearing a mask.
"Hehehe, long time no see."
Old Black smiled as he walked up to the two of them and handed a black device to Fang Heng.
"Fang Heng, this is a special device required to teleport into a high-level world. Mount it on the space tearing device, and the base of the teleportation passage on the other end can be activated to establish a passage link."
"I've already communicated with my people. They're already waiting for us at the other end of the passage."
"Alright."
Fang Heng said as he took the props.
According to their prior discussion, Old Black would take care of the special teleportation device of the unknown high-level world, while Hector would take care of the follow-up personnel and intelligence cooperation with the Federation. Fang Heng would be responsible for the overall stable operation of the teleportation passage.
[Item: Positioning device.]
Level: Futuristic technology.
Description: A special spatial positioning device from a technology higher than the current world. Can be installed on a spatial teleportation device. (The current technology level of the item exceeds the player's world level. The player lacks the relevant skill level and cannot determine the special attributes of the item.)
Description: Can be loaded with plug-in items.
Description: A special passage carrier. This item can be installed on a large space tearing device (and most large mechanical teleportation objects). Through the coordinates recorded inside the space tearing device, a spatial teleportation passage can be established. The transmission passage can be guaranteed to be stable.
Fang Heng held the black square device in his hand and looked at it. He called Victor, who was in front of the console for the final test.
"Hey! Victor! There's something good here. Come over and help me take a look!"
"Coming!"
Victor put down his work and walked over. He took the device from Fang Heng and observed it. Suddenly, he noticed something and his expression changed.
He began to examine it more carefully.
Fang Heng noticed that there was something strange about Victor's expression. He winked at him and asked, "How is it? Can it be loaded?"
"Yes."
Victor put away the black device and glanced at the others in the hall. He nodded and said, "There isn't much of a problem in terms of loading. This is a plug-in type prop, so theoretically, it can be installed. However, our space tearing device has been specially set up, so we still need some preparation to adjust it."
Victor looked at everyone and continued.
"In addition, I need to remind everyone that the coordinate passage in the plug-in device is specially encrypted, and the energy to open the transmission passage is all provided by us."
"Therefore, the entire teleportation will be extremely risky. If the corresponding receiver on the other side of the passage is destroyed, it will be impossible to recover with our current technological means."
Everyone listened to Victor's explanation and nodded.
Victor was still a professional. The information he gave was the same as the conclusion that he had reached after a few days of studying.
However, they were not worried.
Starfish Company had already sent people to guard and protect the receiving end of the passage in advance.
Even if the worst-case scenario was that the receiving end of the passage was destroyed, they could still use the Federation passage to teleport back.
At least they wouldn't be trapped there.
Fang Heng patted Victor's shoulder and said, "Sorry to trouble you, Victor. We know the risks. Go and adjust it as soon as possible."
"Yes, alright." Victor replied and whispered, "Fang Heng, come and find me when you're done. There's something wrong with this box."

1636 The Secret of the Box
Fang Heng's eyes lit up.
He turned around and said to the rest, "Everyone, it will take some time to load the device. Old Mr. Mo, take them to have a look."
"Alright."
After everyone left the teleportation hall, Fang Heng immediately walked to the control panel.
"What's wrong? What is it?"
"Come and take a look."
Fang Heng moved closer to the command station and lowered his head to observe.
Good heavens.
The small black box in Victor's hand turned into a black tablet with a bumpy surface.
Victor stood up the black tablet and placed it on the table.
Blue dots of light gathered in front of the tablet, and a blue three-dimensional projection appeared in midair.
Fang Heng's pupils contracted.
Crooked symbols appeared on the projection.
[Hint: The player has discovered unknown information…]
[Hint: The player does not possess the relevant skill, unable to judge the text content.]
Fang Heng frowned and felt puzzled.
"Yes, I noticed it when I first got the device. I've seen a similar structure before. It's very exquisite and left a deep impression on me."
"Before? When?"
"In Dodd's laboratory, when they came, they moved the entire alien spaceship back to the prison laboratory. Do you still remember?"
An alien spaceship?!
Hearing Victor's words, Fang Heng also recalled.
Oh, right, Dodd, the chief researcher.
A laboratory to study alien spawns!
When Fang Heng went to the Wasteland Apocalypse to complete the mission, he accidentally discovered the remains of an alien spaceship.
According to Fang Heng's usual style, he naturally brought back the entire lost spacecraft, as well as researcher Dodd and his entire team.
Dodd was the leader of the research team.
At that time, Dodd had offered to research alien spawns on his own as a condition, and he had agreed to come back with Fang Heng.
Fang Heng naturally abided by his promise, so no one bothered about them and they were always been fed with good food and drinks.
Later on, because there were too many troublesome matters and he was busy dealing with wave after wave of opponents, he completely forgot about them!
So…
The device in front of him pointed to the Wasteland Apocalypse, one of the three elementary games.
Was the unknown high-level world also related to the Wasteland Apocalypse?
It had been a month or two, and he wondered if Dodd's research had made any progress.
Victor had a deep impression of Dodd's team.
Back then, he had also entered the spaceship for a tour. He had even participated in the study of some of the metal mechanical structures in the spaceship, which had given him quite a bit of inspiration.
He had a good relationship with Dodd and often brought his daughter over to play.
Besides, Victor always had the mecha dream.
The anti-gravity device on the spaceship could solve the problem of the mecha being too heavy and not flexible enough.
"The last time I saw Dodd, he had already developed an anti-gravity device. At this time, he should still be in the laboratory."
Victor looked at the time and called an engineer to invite Dodd over.
…
During this period of time, Dodd's research team was very satisfied with the living environment in the prison.
There was food, water, and they could carry out research.
After experiencing so much hardship, they felt that such a stable research environment was even more precious.
It was not a good thing to just eat and drink without working.
Dodd had thought of reporting the progress of his research to Fang Heng.
Unfortunately, he had tried to find Fang Heng a few times, but Fang Heng was not around.
After hearing the news about the alien spawns, Dodd immediately put down his research and ran over with a group of researchers.
"Fang Heng, I heard that you have discovered something about the spawns?"
"Yes."
Fang Heng nodded and turned to the side, showing the 3D projection in front of Dodd and the others.
"Come and see this."
Dodd took two steps forward and carefully looked at the words on the projection. His expression suddenly changed.
Then, he lowered his head and quickly checked the black tablet device.
"Fang Heng, where did you get this?"
"I got it by accident. I'm not sure where it came from. I'll help you ask again."
Dodd listened to Fang Heng's general description of the high-level game world discovered by the Federation, and his expression changed a little. He then said, "Fang Heng, according to our research, the structure and technology level of this teleportation device is similar to the device we detected in the spaceship. There is a high probability that it is a product of the alien spawns!"
Fang Heng's expression changed as well.
"So you also think that the passage was built by the alien spawns?"
"90% certain!" Dodd nodded his head and said excitedly, "The words on the projection are the written records of the alien spawns!"
"Can the text be translated?"
"Yeah, we've been studying some of the alien languages and have been able to analyze a small portion."
Dodd looked at the words on it again and frowned. He commented, "The general idea is that the other end of the portal leads to a cemetery. You are not allowed to go there without permission. There seems to be something like a prayer recorded behind it. I'm not sure."
"Cemetery…"
Fang Heng muttered to himself.
Dodd nodded and said seriously, "Fang Heng, I want to follow you through the passage."
Fang Heng hesitated.
The high-level game world was too dangerous. Even he himself could not guarantee absolute safety.
To bring another group of researchers over?
The risk was too great.
Just as he was about to refuse, a line of game notifications suddenly appeared on his retina.
[Hint: The player has triggered the special ring mission-alien spawns.]
[Hint: The player has triggered the current ring side mission-unknown signal.]
Mission title: Unknown signal.
Mission difficulty: SSS.
Mission requirements: You have unintentionally found an item related to the alien spawns. Please lead Dodd into the unknown world for further investigation.
Mission reward: ???
Huh?!
A mission was triggered?
Seeing the difficulty of the mission, Fang Heng raised his eyebrows.
SSS-level mission difficulty!
And it was a special ring mission! This meant a huge reward!
Moreover, it was a New World that had just opened…
Relatively speaking, the competition for the mission might not be as strong.
Other than these advantages, he also had Dodd's team who specialized in the study of the alien spawns for a long time!
After seizing so many opportunities, shouldn't he try to go through the next stage?
Fang Heng was tempted.
How about…
In any case, he had already prepared to level up his skills, experience points, vampire bloodline, and King of Gods' points.
There was no need to worry about debts.
He could also give this special ring mission a shot!
Fang Heng thought for a moment and nodded. He said, "Yes, the situation over there is complicated. There are high-intensity unknown creatures. I will go over there to observe first. If the conditions permit, I will bring you guys in to investigate. However, you have to promise me that you will listen to my instructions after entering that world."
"Definitely!"
Seeing Fang Heng agree, Dodd immediately nodded and replied, "We will immediately try to translate the entire prayer. Also, Fang Heng, we have made some progress after our recent research."
"We discovered that alien spawns are born with psychic abilities. They can use this power to communicate and control an unknown level. If you encounter any spawns in that world, you must be careful."
"Yes."
Fang Heng nodded solemnly.
If the mission required dealing with the spawns…
He still needed more information.

1637 Obelisk
An hour later, a blue teleportation passage opened in front of everyone.
Old Black's men led their teams into the teleportation passage.
Fang Heng, on the other hand, stepped into the teleportation passage with Starfish Company's Hector.
After a moment of dizziness, Fang Heng opened his eyes again and found himself in another world.
[Hint: The player has entered a special unknown world…]
[Hint: Self-built spatial teleportation passages are prohibited in the current world.]
[Hint: Detected conflict with player's current item-ultra-small space tearing device…]
[Hint: Weight determination…]
[Hint: The player can only use the ultra-small space tearing device once in the current world, and the opening time of the passage cannot exceed 10 minutes.]
[Hint: In the current world, players are unable to use the survival radio to communicate.]
[Hint: In the current world, the player can log off.]
Fang Heng quickly scanned the game hints on his retina and felt a sense of weightlessness. He took a step forward and opened his eyes.
On the other side of the passage, a lone pillared obelisk stood tall behind the teleportation passage. Beneath it was a large area of grayish-white metal ground.
Upon closer inspection, the ground was carved with fine patterns of alloy metal.
It seemed to be a teleportation passage of another technological model.
About a dozen people from Starfish Company were stationed around the obelisk in advance.
"I wish you all the best. We still have a mission to complete, so I'll leave first."
When everyone was here, Old Black's team leader nodded and left with his men.
Hector turned to Fang Heng and explained, "Fang Heng, this is the teleportation coordinates that Old Black obtained through special means. The Federation's teleportation coordinates aren't here. We have to go over that hill over there."
As he spoke, he pointed at the hill on his right.
"As for this place, a large number of mutated creatures will appear at night. It's very dangerous, but they won't attack the obelisk. Therefore, we will only guard this place during the day. In the future, it's best to choose to use the teleportation passage during the day."
"In order to avoid more trouble, we will try our best not to attract the attention of the Federation. As for the night, it's best to hide in the temporary shelter built by the Federation. It's anonymous there. Just use the name of my Starfish Company."
"Later, our company will try to find an ore exploration area. In fact, we have already roughly searched the area and found some clues. This time, we will also carry out some basic mining work. At that time, we may use your teleportation passage."
"Also, the Federation will occasionally come out to patrol during the day. Let's try to avoid them."
"Yes, I understand."
Fang Heng nodded and looked around. He decided to investigate the situation himself.
"I'll go around the area first, then I'll go to the Federation at night. If you want to use the passage, you can contact Old Mr. Mo directly."
"Okay, thank you. This is the map of the nearby area drawn by Starfish Company. I think you might be able to use it. If you encounter an emergency, you can go offline and contact the company. If it's convenient, we'll meet up at the federal camp later and exchange information."
Although there was no way to communicate remotely in this world, he could go offline.
There were still communication channels between players.
ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm
"No problem."
Fang Heng took the map and watched as Hector left quickly with most of his men, leaving only five Starfish Company guards to monitor the situation near the teleportation passage.
The teleportation passage was still open.
Not far from the obelisk was a small lake, surrounded by a forest.
Therefore, he would first look at the quality of the creatures in this world and find a place to hack.
Fang Heng opened the map to check.
The entire world had yet to be explored.
He was currently on the east side of the federal camp.
The map showed that the surrounding forest was only a very small area.
Further to the east was a desert. There was also an extremely troublesome sandstorm environment in the deeper parts of the desert.
The Federation had once attempted to explore the eastern region, but they encountered a large number of mutated forms.
Coupled with the negative environmental effects, the Federation gave up on attacking after a few rounds of probing.
Currently, the Federation's main task was not to explore the outside world but to establish and defend their strongholds.
"Very good…"
Fang Heng muttered to himself.
He caught the keywords.
A large number of mutated forms!
It was exactly what he needed to upgrade his level!
Let's go over there and take a look.
"Chi, chi chi…"
Red shadows darted out of the teleportation passage and jumped into the forest, heading toward the eastern desert.
The player guarding the teleportation passage was surprised when he saw the Lickers continuously coming out.
Then, his surprise turned to utter shock.
There were actually so many?
It took a full ten minutes as the Lickers continued to dash out of the teleportation passage and into the forest.
There were at least a thousand, right?
And even now, the Lickers were still coming out of the passage!
Fang Heng stood beside the teleportation passage, his expression as calm as ever.
Unlike before, he chose to control the zombie clones to enter the unknown world directly because of the special teleportation passage.
Currently, there were more than 2,000 zombie clones, and half of them had completed and recorded the transformation of the Licker.
In addition to the proliferating body, after the main body had undergone three proliferations, there were three proliferators.
About 500 of them were not in a solidified state, so it was inconvenient for their main bodies to fight. They were left behind to take charge of the logistics of the Zombie Apocalypse.
About 3,500 Lickers!
Fang Heng's main goal this time was to level up.
He had to make full use of the zombie team's advantage from the beginning!
He was going to go all the way out!
After confirming that the exit of the teleportation passage was safe, Fang Heng took advantage of the interval between the gathering of the Lickers and exploring the path. He was bored and lowered his head to observe the special patterns carved on the metal ground below the obelisk.
A line of game hints quickly appeared.
[Hint: The player has not mastered the relevant skill, unable to obtain relevant information.]
It seemed that it had nothing to do with alchemy.
Fang Heng thought for a moment and stopped the Lickers from teleporting into the world. He returned to the Zombie Apocalypse and brought Dodd and his research team over.
Dodd came to the new world and saw the stone obelisk and the metal pictures carved on the ground. He was immediately shocked beyond words.
"Fang Heng! I'm sure that this teleportation passage was left behind by a spawn!"
"Yes…"
Fang Heng nodded and said, "You only have one hour. Gather information and carry out research as soon as possible. Return to the prison immediately after one hour."
"Yes!"
Dodd agreed. With a bit of excitement, he quickly called his subordinates to start researching.
Fang Heng nodded at Mo Jiawei, signaling him to control the time.
Due to the size of the teleportation passage, the Lickers could only come out one by one.

1638 Desert Flying Snake
Nearly half an hour passed.
The few players guarding the teleportation point were already numb from the sight of the Lickers.
They were still coming out of the passage?
The few of them could not help but look at Fang Heng, a thought appearing in their minds.
How many summoned creatures did he have?
Fang Heng was watching Dodd and the others doing the research. Suddenly, he noticed a message flashing on his retina.
[Hint: Your zombie clone-Licker entered a special environment. In the special environment, movement speed is reduced by 15%, stamina consumption is increased by 20%, and attack accuracy is reduced by 5%.]
[Hint: Your zombie clone-Licker is attacked by an unknown life form, and HP is reduced by 588.]
It's here!
The Licker was attacked!
Fang Heng said, "I'll leave first, I'll leave the rest to you."
"No problem!"
Mo Jiawei patted his chest to indicate that he could handle this.
Fang Heng nodded and quickly ran toward the east, quickly disappearing from everyone's sight.
Fang Heng quickly transformed to his vampire form and flew into the sky!
Soon, he saw yellow dust flying in front of him.
"Special terrain…"
Fang Heng returned to his human form and landed on the ground. He looked at the area covered in sand and dust in front of him and muttered to himself.
Large patches of sand and dust.
His vision was greatly affected.
"Buzz… Buzz…"
The buzzing sound of wings vibrating at high speed could be heard from the flying sand.
A special mutated creature!
A desert flying snake!
Fang Heng narrowed his eyes.
It was a mutated creature!
The mutated desert flying snake was like a giant bee. There was a huge mutated tumor on its tail, and the tumor mutated into a spiral-piercing body.
Based on the game hint from the previous battle, the mutated flying snake's mouthpart could spit corrosive venom.
After the invasion of the desert territory, the surrounding mutated forms quickly gathered over and occupied a large area!
Below, the Lickers were attacked as soon as they entered the sandstorm region.
The desert flying snakes could fly and continuously spit corrosive venom.
The combination of the two made them extremely difficult to deal with.
The Lickers that lacked the ability to fight in the air could only be chased.
Fang Heng didn't approach them. He stayed where he was and observed carefully, pondering in his heart.
Strangely, the mutated desert flying snake had no intention of leaving the sandstorm area.
It could be farmed!
Fang Heng quickly made a judgment.
"Pfft! Chi chi…"
The Lickers that were being chased by the desert flying snakes stopped in their tracks. A thick layer of mucus quickly gathered on their bodies, forming a cocoon.
The flesh cocoon expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye!
A dense number of flying snakes swooped down from the sky and used the mutated tumor to launch an enhanced piercing attack on the flesh cocoon!
"Pfft! Tsk tsk!!!"
Small holes appeared on the flesh cocoon.
Stinky pus slowly flowed out of the hole, but it quickly healed.
"Bang! Bang!"
After more than ten seconds, the flesh cocoons that had been inflated to the limit exploded!
One by one, tall bodies stood up from the flesh cocoon.
More than 50 fusion Tyrant forms completed their evolution at the same time!
"Phew!"
The fusion Tyrant form did not have any weapons. With the advantage of its tall body, it directly raised its palm and slapped at a low altitude!
The swarm of desert flying snakes circling at a low altitude was too dense. When the fusion Tyrant form slapped out, five or six of them were instantly hit and sent flying unconscious!
Whoosh! Swoosh…
Following that, the Licker on the ground quickly rushed forward, pouncing on the mutated desert flying snake that had fallen to the ground in a daze!
In the blink of an eye, five or six Lickers were attached to the desert flying snakes that landed on the ground.
The group of Lickers bit the desert flying snakes tightly, continuously creating wounds on their bodies.
At this moment, it was already a dream for the desert flying snake to struggle and fly again!
The dense game hints began to refresh on Fang Heng's retina.
[Hint: Your zombie clone (Licker form) has dealt -443 armor penetration damage to the mutated desert flying snake (mutated creature).]
[Hint: Your zombie clone (fusion Tyrant form) has dealt -243 damage to the mutated desert flying snake (mutated creature) and sent it flying, causing it to be stunned for 3-4 seconds…]
The mutated desert flying snake's HP was extremely high, and it also had the mutated creature's armor skill. Even if the Licker had the armor penetration skill, it would take more than 20 seconds to completely kill it.
Fang Heng quickly observed the situation on the battlefield and the feedback from the game.
It could fight.
However…
He looked at it for a long time and felt puzzled.
Why didn't the mutated desert flying snake drop anything after it died?
There was not a single evolution crystal required to level up to Level 30!
Could it be that the creature's strength was not enough, so it couldn't drop it?
Fang Heng frowned.
In terms of strength alone, the mutated desert flying snake was comparable to the Tier 1 barbarians in the mid-level game world.
The strength of the group of mutated desert flying snakes that had gathered together had also increased greatly.
They really didn't drop anything at all?
Fortunately, all of the mutated desert flying snakes' attacks were physical attacks, so they couldn't kill the Lickers directly.
The hack was still considered stable.
Fang Heng decided to wait a little longer and observe the situation.
Perhaps he was just unlucky and the mutated creatures had a lower drop rate?
…
After refreshing for half an hour, Fang Heng threw half a piece of chocolate into his mouth and chewed it carefully.
He was sure that it was not a matter of luck.
Nothing really dropped!
The sandstorm area ahead was still densely covered by mutated creatures.
The mutant desert flying snakes could not do anything to the zombie clones, and the zombie clones could not quickly deal with the flying snakes.
Even the Licker's killing speed could not keep up.
The number of mutated flying snakes did not decrease at all. Instead, it increased!
Fang Heng realized that the high-level game world was not as simple as he thought.
He thought for a moment and decided to split up two fusion Tyrant forms and a dozen Lickers to charge forward against the attacks of the mutated desert flying snakes!
The appearance of these mutated desert flying snakes was strange. He had to find a way to go deeper in and see what was going on!
Soon, the game hint appeared again.
[Hint: Your zombie clone (fusion Tyrant form) has entered a harsh sandstorm environment. The environmental level has increased. Movement speed is reduced by 25%, stamina consumption is increased by 40%, attack accuracy is reduced by 15, and 20 sand damage is received per second.]
"It seems that the deeper areas ahead are even harsher sandstorms."
Fang Heng muttered to himself.
The harsh environment intensified.
In the sandstorm environment, the HP of the zombie clones would be attacked by the sand every second. They were also attacked by a large number of desert flying snakes, and their health would rapidly decrease.
With the fusion Tyrant form, the damage was ignored! He took it head-on!
Fang Heng controlled the zombie clones to continue charging forward!
Soon, the game hint appeared again.
[Hint: Your zombie clone (fusion Tyrant form) has fallen into quicksand, and is gradually sinking into quicksand. Please be careful.]
[Hint: Your zombie clone (Licker form) has fallen into a quicksand state…]

1639 Quicksand
Fang Heng's pupils constricted.
Oh no!
It was a quicksand environment!
The fusion Tyrant form was huge and heavy. Once it fell into the quicksand, it would be difficult to break free, and once it was completely devoured by the quicksand…
It was still fine if it died because it could automatically revive after a period of time.
What if it was buried deep in the quicksand and couldn't die because of the effect of the undying body?
Wouldn't that be a huge scam?
Fang Heng was shocked and quickly stopped courting death. He controlled the fusion Tyrant form to return the way it came.
It seemed like the passage ahead was for the other party to continue.
Fortunately, the zombies weren't too deep in the quicksand area and could escape in time.
Fang Heng raised his head and continued to look at the group of mutated desert flying snakes.
Killing mutated desert flying snakes did not drop the crystals needed to level up, but it was not completely useless.
At least the desert flying snake left a corpse behind.
The corpse meant that he could collect materials and blood!
Fang Heng had already sensed that the strength of the blood of the desert flying snake was not high. It was about the same as a Tier 1 barbarian.
The advantage lies in quantity.
In front of them was a boundless sandstorm filled with countless mutated forms.
Considering that he might be able to find a way to quickly farm the group, he could first build a few vampire altars here.
As he thought about it, Fang Heng controlled a portion of the Lickers to retreat from the sandstorm area.
The Lickers returned to the forest and turned back into normal zombies.
Then, they began to collect trees and stones on the spot.
On his retina, lines of game notifications were frantically refreshing.
[Hint: Your zombie clone (fusion Tyrant form) has dealt -221 damage to the mutated desert flying snake (mutated creature) and sent it flying…]
[Hint: The player's zombie clone (normal form) has obtained two crude stones through the 'collect' skill.]
[Hint: The player's zombie clone (normal form) has used the 'create' skill to create a wooden strip*1…]
…
More than an hour later, the two fusion Tyrant forms dragged a wooden trailer back.
Due to the lack of nails, the trailer could only be fixed by the vine zombie using its binding skill.
After unloading the construction resources, the zombie clones began to build the vampire altar.
Fang Heng, on the other hand, poured the blood that had been refined into the blood pool of the vampire altar.
"According to this scale, we need to build at least twenty altars…"
Fang Heng muttered to himself.
A loading bar appeared on the zombie clones.
[Hint: Your zombie clone (normal form) is building the vampire altar. Consumed wooden frames*12. Construction completion increased by 0.02%…]
Fang Heng slowly shifted his gaze to the deeper parts of the desert.
While the zombie clones were collecting, he tried to explore the deeper parts of the sand area from a few different angles.
Based on the feedback from the Lickers, the entire area ahead was filled with sand and dust. As they went deeper, they all encountered quicksand.
Fang Heng had a strange feeling.
These mutated desert flying snakes seemed to be entrenched in the sandstorm area, attacking all intruders that entered the sandstorm environment.
It looked like it was protecting something.
It would take some time before the vampire altar was completed.
After the death of a living being, if the blood was not properly preserved or condensed, the power in the blood would quickly disappear.
That was all for today. He would let the zombie clones build the altar here for a while.
Fang Heng wanted to return to the federal camp first to see if he could obtain some information from the Federation.
After all, the biggest goal of this trip was to level up.
He had to find a way to figure out why monsters didn't drop crystals.
With that thought, Fang Heng transformed into his bat form again and flew toward the federal camp.
…
Fang Heng flew in the direction indicated on the map. Soon, he found the federal camp in the distance.
Fang Heng landed a little further away and returned to his human form, walking toward the federal camp.
The federal camp was heavily guarded.
In the outer area, there were many watchtowers.
Fang Heng was wearing a necromancer's uniform, and his face was covered by a thick hood.
He looked up at the top of the tower. Elite guards in Federation uniforms were on high alert with heavy light beam sniper rifles.
It was actually a high-level energy beam weapon.
Fang Heng's heart skipped a beat.
At first, he thought that he would be interrogated when he entered the Federation's territory.
However, that did not happen to him.
The few guards at the entrance did not pay much attention to Fang Heng, nor did anyone check his identity. They just glanced at him casually and let him through.
The strict security of the camp was not aimed at the players, but at the mutated creatures that existed in the world.
Ever since they entered the unknown high-level world, the Federation's temporary camp had been invaded by countless mutated creatures.
They were already in a terrible state just dealing with the mutated creatures.
As for the investigation, the Western District Federation had placed all their attention outside the teleportation passage.
All personnel who enter the world through the passage must undergo a 'strict' inspection in advance.
After being teleported into the world, the review would no longer exist.
There must be a loophole.
Coincidentally, the 12 corporations needed to do something to block the loophole.
Fang Heng stepped into the Federation's temporary camp.
It was indeed very temporary.
At a rough glance, there were only two high-rise buildings being built in the entire camp. The rest were temporary tents.
Fang Heng had heard that the Federation hoped that the players could stay and help the camp resist the invasion of mutated monsters at night, so they provided tents for the players for free.
At the same time, the Federation was also recruiting professional players related to high-level engineering and architecture. Of course, the ones who were recruited the most were still powerful fighters.
There were many players coming and going in the camp.
Fang Heng followed the crowd and soon entered a large half-built factory on the west side of the camp.
The electronic screen in the center of the factory displayed the latest commission issued by the Federation.
The Federation provided commissions to the major player companies and guilds. Completing the commissions could be exchanged for various points and tools.
Fang Heng raised his head and carefully read the mission commission on the electronic screen, thinking to himself.
Other than some construction commissions, the commissions issued by the Federation were mainly divided into three types: reconnaissance, guarding the base, and escorting the construction team.
The troublesome thing was that most of the commissions required a team to receive them.
The Federation would consider the strength of the player team and decide whether to hand over the commission.
Eh?
Suddenly, Fang Heng shifted his gaze to the exchange reward column on the screen.
Mutant crystallization assembly device?
What was this thing?
The required points were also very high.
From the name, it seemed to be related to the crystals required for leveling up.
Just as Fang Heng was feeling puzzled, he heard a voice in his ear.
"Fang Heng, I was just about to look for you. What a coincidence to meet you here."
He turned his head and saw a young man walking over.
Héctor asked with a smile, "How is it? Did you run into any trouble?"

1640 The Challenge
Fang Heng nodded and said, "Yes, it's still alright. The difficulty of the advanced game has increased, and we've encountered quite a challenge."
"Indeed, but the greater the difficulty, the greater the reward."
As Hector had something urgent to do, he didn't chat with Fang Heng too much and got to the point, "Long story short, our company has just confirmed a small cosmic crystal mine. The initial estimate is about 1-2 tons. We have already started to execute the excavation. Are you interested in participating?"
Fang Heng raised his eyebrows and asked, "Nearby? Are there high-tier creatures around the mine?"
Hector nodded and replied, "Yes, about five kilometers away. High-tier creatures will appear intermittently nearby. The number is relatively small, so it's not a problem. It's completely under control."
Forget it then.
Hearing this, Fang Heng lost interest.
The low number of monsters meant that it was not enough for him to farm monsters and level up.
If even Hector's team could handle it, there was no need for him to waste his time.
Not to mention there were only 2 tons of cosmic crystal reserves.
It was a little too little.
Fang Heng quickly thought about it and nodded, "No, I'll take a look at something else."
The young man behind Hector was a little surprised.
Actually, the reason they roped Fang Heng in to participate in the excavation of the cosmic crystals was to get closer to him.
After the mining was completed, they would definitely give Fang Heng a portion.
Giving up the benefits was for better cooperation in the future.
He did not expect Fang Heng to reject him so easily as if he did not care at all.
"Alright, Fang Heng. We'll borrow your world passage to transport resources later."
"Of course, I already promised you. There's no problem at all."
Fang Heng pointed at the display screen in front of him and asked, "By the way, do you know what the mutant crystallization assembly device is?"
Hector also looked up and glanced at the points and materials exchange form provided by the Federation. He replied, "Yes, it's used to create mutant crystals."
"Mutant crystals? For leveling up?"
"Yes, it's for leveling up after Level 30."
Fang Heng raised his eyebrows and suddenly became interested. He probed, "Tell me more."
"Players need to use mutant crystals to level up after Level 30. The drop rate of these crystals is very low, and they only drop from high-tier creatures. Therefore, it becomes extremely difficult to level up after Level 30."
This information was not a secret. However, players below Level 30 had no way of finding out.
"The Federation has developed a special device in some way that can absorb energy when killing low-tier creatures. When the energy is absorbed to a certain extent, it can form a mutant crystal after being recycled and modified by the Federation."
How could there be such a trick?
Fang Heng thought to himself that the Federation still had some of its own merit. They could actually obtain high-tier crystals by killing a large number of low-tier monsters.
It could be considered to reduce the difficulty of the game.
"Using this method is a bit inefficient. Moreover, the Federation will also charge a high processing fee. More importantly, this way, ordinary players will be restrained by the Federation. But the players will need to use this method to help the Federation as they have no better way."
At this point, Hector glanced at the players in the factory and smiled bitterly, "Otherwise, where do you think so many player companies and guilds are willing to work for the Federation?"
Fang Heng looked at the players around him and suddenly had an idea.
"Hector, do me a favor."
Hector's expression turned solemn.
Helping each other was a bridge that deepened the relationship between the two.
"Tell me, I'll try my best."
"I want to receive a special commission from the Federation, but the Federation doesn't open commissions for individuals. In addition, my identity isn't suitable, so I want to receive it in the name of your Starfish Company. You don't have to worry about the follow-up of the commission."
"You want to complete the commission alone?"
Hector was surprised.
On the LCD screen, a large portion of the special commissions belonged to the Federation.
This part of the commission was more important. Before accepting it, it had to go through the Federation's review.
Generally, only large companies and player teams were allowed to accept it.
Once the commission failed, the guild's credit rating in the Federation would be lowered.
"Yes."
"Which mission?"
Fang Heng pointed and said, "Guard the outpost."
Upon hearing this, the young man following behind Hector had a slight change in expression.
Hector looked at him and asked, "How is it?"
The young man said in a deep voice, "This mission is extremely difficult."
Hector said to Fang Heng, "This is Lu Yanlong. He is one of the first batch to enter this world to explore. He knows the situation here very well,"
Lu Yanlong stepped forward and said, "It's Mr. Fang's first day here, so he probably doesn't know much about the situation."
"Every night, the entire federal camp area will be attacked by a large number of mutated creatures. The federal troops were almost wiped out in the first few days and forced to retreat."
"After that, the Federation chose to build eight outposts in the outer area of the base in advance as the first line of defense during the day. Due to the lack of defensive manpower, the Federation also issued the commission of guarding the outposts and defeating the mutated creatures to the player teams."
Lu Yanlong's expression was solemn as he said, "The outpost was established in a hurry, and its defensive capabilities are extremely limited. The supplies and whatnot can't keep up at all. The Federation says that they will provide various support in name, but in reality, when a large number of mutated creatures swarm over, it will be very difficult for them to defend the base. They won't have the time to send people to support the outpost that has been packed out at the periphery."
When Fang Heng heard this, his eyelids twitched. He could not help but interrupt, "I'm sorry to interrupt. Did you just say that a large number of creatures will attack the outpost? How strong is the creature?
Lu Yanlong thought for a moment and replied seriously, "It's a mixed-type mutated creature. There are high and low-strength creatures. The highest-strength creature has appeared before, but I've never heard of a Commander-level creature."
"I understand. You can continue."
"Alright. In the past few days, after the outpost mission was released, many player companies and teams have tried it, but all of them failed without exception. The outpost has never been truly defended, and the number of player teams willing to accept the mission has decreased. As a result, the Western District Federation is also in a lot of trouble, and the rewards they give are increasing daily."
Lu Yanlong looked at Fang Heng and said in a low voice, "Mr. Fang, I don't recommend you accept this mission. The purpose of this mission is to find cannon fodder to resist the first wave of attack from the mutated creatures by using our strength to fight the monsters. This will help reduce the pressure on the guards protecting the camp."
Fang Heng naturally understood this logic.
However…
He was even more interested!
First of all, there would be a large number of mutated creatures attacking the outpost at night, mixed with high-strength creatures.
He could obtain mutant crystals from it.
Secondly, the exchange reward given by the Western District Federation was very good.

1641 Registration
After accepting the commission to guard the outpost, the Federation will directly give the person a sum of money to purchase various combat materials.
Just nice, he could buy some of the Federation's mutant crystallization assembly devices to try.
Using the mutant crystallization assembly device to obtain mutant crystals and increase the level of efficiency!
Seeing the excitement in Fang Heng's eyes, Hector couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Fang Heng, are you interested?"
"Yes."
Knowing that Fang Heng was very powerful, Hector could not help but remind him, "Fang Heng, there are less than three hours left before the mutated creatures appear. Isn't it a little rushed? If the mission is completed badly, it might affect the subsequent cooperation between the Starfish Company and the Western District Federation."
Fang Hend nodded and replied, "I understand the risks. At least the mission won't be done badly."
"Alright, since you say so."
Seeing that Fang Heng was confident, he readily agreed to help.
Just now, he received a report from his subordinate, confirming that Fang Heng had controlled at least 2,000 Lickers to enter the current world.
A mere 2,000 Lickers was far from Fang Heng's actual ability!
Hector had already learned some information about Fang Heng from Ruan Ziying.
Fang Heng was the one who could survive the pursuit of the top boss of a high-level game, the 'Tongues of Jealousy'.
This was indeed legendary!
Moreover, although the Western District Federation was generous, they always revealed a sense of arrogance when they cooperated with them in the past, which made Hector feel quite unhappy.
"Alright, I'll bring you there now."
Hector took Fang Heng to the Federation commission office and accepted the commission in the name of Starfish Company.
The Western District Federation was naturally happy to know that someone had taken the initiative to come and accept the outpost mission.
In the past two days, the Federation officer in charge, Dallas, had been in a terrible state.
There were too many mutated creatures attacking the sentry tower.
Normal player teams were afraid of death and were unwilling to come, so no one accepted the mission.
Even if they were willing to come to the Federation, they wouldn't dare to casually give them the mission.
On the other hand, the high-level teams and gaming guilds were also unwilling to come after suffering heavy losses in the past two days.
Dallas could only put down his pride and take the initiative to look for others to cooperate. He also kept increasing the stakes.
The effect was still not very good.
When the higher-ups blamed him, he would also be criticized.
The most troublesome thing was that once the sentry tower was left unguarded, the regular army would eventually take over. Not only would the casualty rate increase, but the defense force of the base would also be greatly reduced.
Seeing that the people from Starfish Company were willing to take over this hot potato, Dallas was immediately enthusiastic and even offered the biggest discount, which was to provide a large amount of materials support in advance.
Dallas noticed Fang Heng who was standing beside Hector and asked in confusion, "And this is?"
"One of the partners of Starfish Company. He will be in charge of guarding the sentry tower this time."
Fang Heng nodded at Dallas, then whispered something into Hector's ear.
Hector opened his mouth and looked at Fang Heng with a 'are you sure?' expression.
Fang Heng nodded again.
Seeing their interaction, Dallas was a little confused and asked, "Is there a problem?"
"I'm sorry, he's a necromancer. He doesn't usually interact with outsiders and is a little autistic. There's no problem. We can accept the commission."
Dallas didn't think much of it and nodded. He said, "Okay, please register then."
After filling in the application form and accepting the commission, the Federation immediately provided Starfish Company with a sum of points.
Ten minutes later, when Hector left the commission office with Fang Heng, he was holding a thick stack of exchange lists and commission instructions.
"Fang Heng, resisting the invasion of the mutated monsters at night is a joint military operation of the Federation. At that time, the Federation's radio communication system will be affected and will not be able to be used. The accompanying personnel will be required to enter the game and go offline to consolidate information at any time. One of our team members must accompany you."
"Alright, I'll have to trouble you guys this time."
"In addition, this is the exchange list for the Federation's special commissions. To complete the mission of guarding the outpost, the Federation will provide a large discount on the materials. They are all at the lowest price. Many special items can't be found outside. The Federation is willing to give us a portion of points in advance."
Fang Heng took the list and quickly checked it.
The list listed a series of redeemable items, most of which were consumables such as weapons and ammunition.
Eh?
Fang Heng's eyes lit up as he flipped through the pages.
There was such a thing?
Good stuff!
Fang Heng picked up his pen and quickly drew a few circles on the list, writing a few numbers.
"That's all."
"Okay, I'll get someone to do it now. When the time comes, I'll send someone to send the equipment and materials to you at Outpost No. 8. By the way, do you know the exact location of Outpost No. 8?"
"I know, no problem."
"Alright, I'll quickly go and handle it. An hour should be enough…"
As he spoke, he picked up the list and checked it.
Hmm?
"Wait, Fang Heng, are you sure there's no mistake? You want to exchange for these?"
Seeing the items on the list, Hector was shocked. He looked up again to confirm with Fang Heng.
"Yes, it's them. There's no mistake. Don't worry about exchanging them. I have my own plan."
"Alright, alright."
Hector glanced at Fang Heng and carefully put away the list.
He chose to believe Fang Heng.
Based on his contact with Fang Heng during this period and his high evaluation of Ruan Ziying and Fang Heng, Fang Heng was not an arrogant fool.
Therefore, Fang Heng must have some trump card that he had yet to reveal!
The two discussed the details and left the square together.
On the other side, Sergeant Dallas received the formal commission letter signed by Starfish Company and could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
Another difficult day passed.
He had to take on this dirty job.
He had finally completed today's mission beyond his expectations.
There were only two outposts left that could not be sold.
He could only let the commander think of a way.
Just as Dallas was about to tidy up and report back, two soldiers came forward and said, "Reporting, Sir! Just now, Starfish Company exchanged strategic materials at the military department. This is the exchange list."
"Yes."
Dallas took the list of exchanged materials and glanced at it. It was originally just an ordinary process. However, when he saw the contents of the list, he couldn't help but be stunned. He raised his head and asked, "You took the wrong one?"
The soldier quickly shook his head and said, "Sir! I have already checked it three times. There is no problem."
What was going on?
Dallas was completely dumbfounded.
There were only four items on the list.
A large number of mutant crystallization assembly devices.
A few desert transport vehicles.
Five hundred super heavy energy beam guns.
2,000 boxes of energy beam gun magazines.
Dallas frowned.
Was this behavior typical of a small company? It seemed as if they were trying to run away after getting the Federation's subsidy!
Other than armored vehicles, the things that Starfish Company exchanged for were difficult to obtain through external channels.
Moreover, it didn't seem like it was used to deal with mutated creatures.

1642 War Machinery
The mutant crystallization assembly device was used to grind monsters and level up.
Only the Federation provided it outside, so it could definitely be sold at a high price.
The heavy-duty energy beam gun was not meant for players to use.
It was entirely designed and manufactured to be equipped with the latest generation of the Federation's 'Reformer-12′ war machinery.
Ordinary players could not even lift the gun, let only use it!
Of course, the cost of war machinery was extremely high. The Federation also provided them for exchange, and the price could be said to be exorbitant.
Starfish Company didn't exchange for the mech but for weapons? Wasn't this buying and selling to make a fortune?
It seemed as if they were planning to run away.
The Starfish Company was such a big company and had cooperated with the Western District Federation many times. Their reputation had always been good.
They would also run away?
A few projects that they were working on were also going to be abandoned.
That's not right…
The subordinate saw that Dallas's expression was strange and suggested, "Sir, the Starfish Company has begun transporting supplies. Should we intercept them?"
"No need. You can leave. I'll handle it."
Intercept?
Dallas thought for a moment and felt that it was better not to make such a big fuss.
After all, Starfish Company was a large international company with considerable strength.
The other party's procedures were also reasonable and compliant.
However, he still had to report it to the higher-ups.
If the other party tried to escape, they could avoid the risk in advance.
If they really ran away, the Western District Federation would definitely come to settle the score with them!
…
The night gradually fell.
On a barren sandy land, the frontline outpost of the Federation was built in the middle of the city.
The entire outpost was a five-story building. It was built temporarily and had limited defensive capabilities.
After Lu Yanlong finished checking the mutant crystallization assembly device on the top floor, he looked out the window a few times.
How terrifying!
Under the window, a large number of zombies had gathered around the outpost!
Starting from two hours ago, a large number of zombies began to gather, surrounding the entire outpost.
Then, the zombies suddenly began to disperse and build a very evil-looking stone altar around the sentry tower.
By now, there were more than 20 altars built outside the sentry tower.
The altar looked strange.
Lu Yanlong shivered for no reason and hurried back to the first floor of the outpost.
"Mr. Fang, the devices have been installed according to your requirements and are now activated."
Fang Heng was observing the game notifications on the first floor. He looked up and said, "Well done."
Lu Yanlong looked at Fang Heng's calm appearance and was somewhat worried. He said, "Mr. Fang, based on past experience, there are at most twenty minutes before the mutated monsters attack this place. Do we really not need to set up any more traps?"
"No need. Leave the rest to me. You just need to keep in touch with the Federation offline."
Fang Heng's expression was as relaxed as ever.
The vampire altars at the edge of the desert had been completed.
Hence, the zombie clones all changed into Lickers and quickly rushed to the Outpost No. 8 to gather. They quickly returned to their normal zombie forms and began to collect materials to build the vampire altar.
The situation was gratifying.
A total of 27 sentry towers had been completed, and the remaining eight altars could be completed in 20 minutes.
The calmer Fang Heng appeared, the more nervous Lu Yanlong felt.
Was everything really alright?
The group of zombies and the altars outside did not look very reliable.
Lu Yanlong carefully looked out the window, his expression grave. He had to prepare for the worst.
"Mr. Fang, please follow me when you are in danger. I will escort you out of here."
Lu Yanlong was sent by Starfish Company to assist Fang Heng. Other than being responsible for maintaining communication with the Federation, he was also a master-level spatial element player.
His special spatial ability allowed him to ensure his safety when facing many high-level dangerous missions.
The reason why Lu Yanlong was sent here was to protect Fang Heng. Once they encountered danger, Lu Yanlong would use his spatial ability to teleport Fang Heng away.
"Alright, alright, there's no need to be so nervous."
Fang Heng waved his hand casually.
Lu Yanlong couldn't help but feel a little anxious. He quickly went offline to check the situation.
Fifteen minutes later, Lu Yanlong came online again.
"Mr. Fang, Outpost No. 1 is under attack. It is estimated that the outpost will be attacked by a large number of mutated creatures in five minutes. We need to be prepared for battle!"
"Alright."
Fang Heng replied and walked out of the outpost.
Lu Yanlong hurriedly followed.
Outside the outpost, a large number of zombie clones surrounded the outpost.
Lu Yanlong raised his head and looked into the distance. His expression changed slightly, and he looked very serious as he spoke, "Mr. Fang, they're here."
"Yes."
Fang Heng also raised his head and looked into the distance.
A series of black dots appeared on the horizon of the desert in the distance.
Mutated monsters!
Lu Yanlong's forehead was covered with a layer of cold sweat.
In the past, he had only heard about the situation at the outpost. Even so, this was the first time he saw the mutated monsters surging toward them. Lu Yanlong still felt a sense of trepidation.
Fang Heng's expression also became a little more serious. He was more excited though.
With so many mutated creatures, the probability of a mutant crystal dropping was even higher.
The zombie clones that were originally entrenched around the outpost gathered under Fang Heng's control, blocking the way between the monsters and the outpost.
There were nearly 6,000 zombies.
They gathered together in a vast and mighty manner, looking extremely terrifying.
Unfortunately, compared to the black mass of mutated creatures in the distance, the opponent undoubtedly gave off a stronger sense of oppression.
The zombie team in the front row seemed a little weak.
Lu Yanlong looked at Fang Heng worriedly. He was indeed powerful to be able to control so many zombies. However, zombies were low-level creatures in the elementary game world.
Facing an advanced game world creature, they would undoubtedly be crushed!
It was impossible for them to block a stronger opponent!
Eh?
What was that?
Lu Yanlong heard the sizzling sound and looked in the direction of the sound. His pupils couldn't help but shrink.
He stared at the zombies in front of him.
The zombies had changed!
A strange sticky substance oozed out of the zombies' bodies. Then, they squatted down and formed calluses on the spot.
"Pfft! Tsk tsk…!!"
The dense sizzling sounds were endless.
In just a short ten seconds, the flesh cocoons broke open one after another!
Red shadows darted out of the flesh cocoon and quickly gathered in front of the outpost. They blocked the path of the mutated monsters that were surging forward and formed a defensive line!
Lu Yanlong turned his head and looked at Fang Heng in surprise.
Lickers!
Zombies could evolve into Lickers?
The Licker's combat power was completely different from the zombie clone!
Lu Yanlong's heart was pounding.
Such a large number of Lickers piled up together made Lu Yanlong even more shocked.

1643 Change in Form
What a terrifying group of fighters!
It was true that a World Lord could dominate a low-tier game world by himself.
If it was in a complex city terrain, this many Lickers would definitely be able to use the terrain to resist mutated creatures for a long time!
What a pity…
The terrain here was a sandy area. It was too wide. The Lickers alone were unable to deal with so many mutated monsters!
Lu Yanlong looked at Fang Heng, who still had an indifferent expression on his face.
It seemed like he was prepared.
Eh?
What was that?
Among the numerous cocoons that were breaking open, there were about a hundred cocoons that did not break open immediately. Instead, they were expanding. They expanded rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye!
In just a short moment, they expanded to more than two meters tall.
"Bang!"
The flesh cocoons broke open!
Tall fusion Tyrant forms stood up straight from the flesh cocoons.
Lu Yanlong was shocked.
Tyrant form!
The commander-level creature in the elementary Zombie Apocalypse game!
It could also be controlled by Fang Heng?
Lu Yanlong subconsciously turned to look at Fang Heng.
Fang Heng didn't notice Lu Yanlong's gaze and was focused on controlling the zombie clones.
As there were too many zombie clones, controlling them had become a burden for Fang Heng.
On the battlefield, the fusion Tyrant form was undoubtedly the most suitable form for battle!
More than a hundred fusion Tyrant forms crawled out of the flesh cocoons one after another and walked toward Fang Heng.
They walked past Fang Heng and toward the weapon boxes piled up at the corner of the wall.
"Ka! Kakaka!"
The weapon boxes that were originally lined up against the wall were opened one after another.
The fusion Tyrant forms took out the heavy energy beam guns provided by the Federation from the weapon boxes.
Lu Yanlong was shocked when he saw this scene.
The heavy-duty energy beam weapon, which was originally part of the Federation's heavy war machinery, was easily lifted by the fusion Tyrant form with one hand and lightly placed on its shoulder.
The fusion Tyrant form was originally a commander-level creature in the elementary game.
Coupled with the support of advanced energy beam weapons…
Fang Heng controlled the fusion Tyrant forms to raise their heavy beam guns and followed them to the front row of the Lickers.
Very good.
Not bad.
The fusion Tyrant forms seemed to be very handy when using the heavy energy beam gun!
They raised their heavy beam guns and aimed at the swarm of mutated creatures.
"Whoosh! Whoosh Whoosh!"
A dark blue beam of light condensed in the barrel of the gun for 0.1 seconds before it shot out from the muzzle!
The bowl-sized beam of light instantly penetrated everything in its way!
"Boom! Boom Boom!!!"
The beam of light directly pierced through the bodies of more than ten mutated creatures, causing a violent explosion when it landed among the monsters!
A large number of mutated creatures were pierced through by the light beam and were crippled. The explosion also sent another group of mutated creatures flying away!
The front row of the surging mutated creatures was instantly in a mess!
After a wave of attacks, the game notifications on Fang Heng's retina suddenly flooded.
[Hint: The player's zombie clone (fusion Tyrant form) has used a super heavy-duty energy beam gun to deal 2,999 penetration damage to the mutated form…]
[Hint: The player's zombie clone (fusion Tyrant form) has used a super heavy-duty energy beam gun to cause AOE damage…]
After using the heavy-duty energy beam gun, it would take up to 5 seconds to recharge.
"Whoosh! Whoosh Whoosh!!!"
At this moment, the Lickers standing at the back took action!
The Lickers gathered together and formed a torrent of creatures. They were fearless and charged straight at the endless horde of monsters!
They used their flesh to bite and block the front row of the mutated monsters!
The beam weapon charged up for a short while.
The second volley!
"Boom! Boom!! Boom!!!"
Lu Yanlong felt the tremors under his feet. He stood at the side and swallowed his saliva carefully.
Under the continuous bombardment of the beam weapons, the monsters that were charging toward them fell in large numbers.
It seemed like…
They really blocked the mutated creatures?
At the same time, dense game notifications flashed crazily on Fang Heng's retina.
[Hint: The player's zombie clone (Licker form) has caused bite damage…]
[Hint: The player's zombie clone (fusion Tyrant form) has used a super heavy-duty energy beam gun to cause AOE damage…]
[Hint: The player's zombie clone (fusion Tyrant form) has been killed, and mutant crystal*1 has been found.]
There it was!
Fang Heng saw the game notification flash past his retina. His heart skipped a beat and he raised his hand forward.
Two black crystals flew into his palm.
[Hint: The player has obtained Tier 1 mutant crystal*2.]
[Hint: The player unlocked the Level 31 upgrade requirement.]
[Hint: The player requires 100 Tier 1 mutant crystals to level up to Level 31.]
Just 100!
Not many!
Fang Heng raised his head and looked into the distance.
After a few rounds of energy beam attacks, the number of mutated monsters did not decrease.
It seemed endless!
That was great!
According to this efficiency, he would probably be able to get 100 in half an hour!
He continued to farm!
Thousands of Lickers charged at the front of the team and blocked the mutated creatures!
The fusion Tyrant forms could easily use the super heavy-duty energy beam gun in the back row.
Looking at the bloody battlefield, Lu Yanlong's eyes were filled with shock.
He turned to look at Fang Heng, wanting to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
Fang Heng sensed Lu Yanlong's gaze and nodded. He asked, "Aren't you going offline to report the situation to the Federation?"
"Oh, right!"
Realization dawned on Lu Yanlong and he replied, "Mr. Fang, I'm going offline to check the Federation's situation. I'll be back soon."
Fang Heng glanced at the energy ammunition that was being rapidly consumed by the fusion Tyrant form at the corner of the wall.
The only thing that could affect his farming efficiency was the energy ammo.
Without the beam weapon, the efficiency of farming monsters would undoubtedly be greatly reduced.
"Think of a way to ask the Federation for more supplies. If the Federation sends reinforcements, let me know in advance."
"Alright, I'll make the arrangements."
Lu Yanlong guessed that Fang Heng was unwilling to reveal his strength in front of the Western District Federation. He nodded and ran back to the outpost. He quickly went offline to ask for information about the Federation.
…
"Tell them to do their best to block it! Tell them that reinforcements will arrive soon and that they must fight for another 30 minutes. After the mission is completed, they will be awarded 3,000 mission points!"
"Idiot, what is the meaning of the Hydralisk Union?! If you don't have the ability, don't accept the mission. You can't even hold on for 30 minutes and you want to retreat? Do they still want to continue doing business with the Federation in the future?"
"Warn them! They had to hold on for at least 20 minutes, or else they would never be able to receive a commission from the Western District Federation!"
The command hall was in chaos.
"Didn't they say that reinforcements would arrive? When will the reinforcements arrive?"
"It's only been ten minutes since the battle started, and you want reinforcements?"
"Go up and take a look yourself! There are more mutated creatures today than the previous two times! We're under a lot of pressure!"
Lu Yanlong had just come online, and before he could leave the gaming cabin, he heard all kinds of roars coming from outside.

1644 Tragic
After night descended, the various outposts were attacked by mutated creatures.
Today's mutated creatures were even more ferocious than the previous few times!
A certain large union accepted the commission of guarding the outpost for the first time and miscalculated the strength of mutated creatures. They only lasted for less than ten minutes before they were ready to abandon the outpost and run. The federal commander was so angry that his face turned green and he could not help but curse.
A soldier officer standing guard beside the game cabin helped Lu Yanlong open the hatch and asked in a low voice, "Is Outpost No. 8 under the control of the Starfish Company currently under attack by mutated creatures?"
"Yes, it's currently under attack. We are still resisting for the time being."
Lu Yanlong paused for a moment, and his expression darkened. He then raised his voice and shouted, "The intelligence work of the Federation is not done well at all! Why are there so many mutated creatures today?"
"We need reinforcements! Reinforcements! This is completely different from what you said in the commission! With so many mutated creatures and we are only relying on a single outpost to defend against them? Are you crazy?"
"Do you want us to die in vain?"
The soldier recorded what Lu Yanlong said and nodded, "Reinforcements are already on the way. They will arrive as soon as possible. Before reinforcements arrive, please be sure to resist the attacks of mutated creatures."
Who would believe you?!
In the past, there was no precedent for the Federation to lend a helping hand.
Lu Yanlong cursed in his heart and shouted at the top of his voice, "We can't block it at all! Have you never been to the front line and don't know the exact situation? If this continues, we will all be wiped out! Our boss said that he won't risk our lives! We will appeal to the Central Federation!"
"We will compensate you with additional mission points. Please hold on for a while longer. We will compensate you for every ten minutes you hold on."
"I was waiting for you to say this!"
Lu Yanlong was instantly satisfied with the compensation. He said with a straight face, "Hurry up! We need reinforcements! Forget it, it looks like you guys won't have any more reinforcements. We need energy ammunition, the more the better! Our people are at the Federation base. Prepare the energy ammunition and supplies and transport them yourself!"
The soldier said confidently, "We will cherish every soldier's life. They have all sacrificed their lives for the Federation. They deserve the highest respect. I will relay your request to the commander."
"Hurry up, you only have ten minutes! If we don't get the supplies in ten minutes, we'll retreat immediately! No matter how much money is earned, we need to be alive to spend it! Do you know that?"
Lu Yanlong slammed the door shut and quickly returned to the game.
He had a rough assessment of the current situation at the outpost.
With the combat ability of the zombies summoned by Fang Heng, they could probably resist for another half an hour.
Thousands of Lickers were no joke.
In addition, the fusion Tyrant forms were using a high-tier energy beam weapon.
The output efficiency was too brutal…
Half an hour was definitely not a problem!
However…
There were also shortcomings.
After all, the Licker's body was relatively weak, and it couldn't hold on for too long.
Once the Lickers were exhausted, the defensive line would be torn apart, and the fusion Tyrant forms in the rear would not be able to attack so calmly.
Lu Yanlong prayed that Fang Heng's zombie army could hold on for a while longer.
With every minute they held on, they would receive more supplies from the Federation!
Bang!
While he was thinking, Lu Yanlong returned online and pushed open the gate of the outpost.
Eh?
Seeing the situation outside the outpost, Lu Yanlong's eyes revealed a look of surprise again.
This…
What was going on?
In front of the outpost, the mutated creatures that were all over the place were firmly blocked by the Lickers in front of them!
At a glance, the battle had been going on for close to 20 minutes. The number of Lickers did not seem to have decreased at all.
He had thought that the Lickers would not be able to withstand the attacks of mutated creatures for a long time, but the scene before him had far exceeded Lu Yanlong's expectations.
It looked like there were zero casualties.
There were so many Lickers just now, and now there were still so many?
What he couldn't understand was that the fusion Tyrant form that was constantly attacking from behind didn't care about its teammates at all.
The super heavy-duty energy light beams were fired continuously by the fusion Tyrant form.
Who cares if the person in front of it is a teammate?
The beam weapons bombarded the area where the monsters gathered.
A large area was blasted out, and even the Lickers and mutated creatures were bombarded together!
How could this be?
Lu Yanlong looked ahead carefully and could not help but narrow his eyes.
He suddenly realized something.
That group of Lickers was different!
Lu Yanlong saw with his own eyes that the energy beam had pierced most of the Licker's body, causing it to lose its balance and roll on the ground.
As it rolled, the body that had been pierced through recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye!
After rolling for more than ten meters, the Licker swiftly flipped over on the ground and leaped high into the air once again. It pounced at the mutated creatures in front of it with vigor!
In just a short moment, the Licker's body, which had been penetrated by the energy beam, had recovered!
What the hell was with that ridiculous HP and powerful self-regeneration ability?!
Lu Yanlong saw an incomprehensible scene, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He suddenly realized that if this situation continued, at least before the energy of the heavy energy beam weapon was exhausted, the endless wave of mutated creatures would no longer pose any threat to them!
"How's the situation offline?"
When Lu Yanlong heard the question from his ear, he could not help but come back to his senses.
"It's, it's still alright."
He looked at Fang Heng, who had a calm expression and took a deep breath to calm himself down.
"Currently, all the outposts have been attacked by the monster horde. No outposts have been lost yet, but it's almost time. The Federation hopes that we can continue to resist the attacks of mutated creatures for at least half an hour. They are willing to pay an additional price. In addition, I have urged them to provide more energy weapons and ammunition. Our company has people at the base. They will help transport them."
"Thank you. Oh right, there's one more thing."
Fang Heng wasn't very interested in the Federation's offer. He was relieved after hearing that the energy ammunition had been secured. He pointed at the top of the outpost.
"Are those things activated?"
Lu Yanlong raised his head and looked up.
A large number of mutant crystallization assembly devices placed on the top floor of the sentry tower continuously emitted a faint pale blue light in the night sky.
Lu Yanlong nodded and said, "Yes! The blue light is a sign that the device is running."
"That's good."
Fang Heng nodded and looked up at the battlefield in the distance again.
Lu Yanlong could not help but follow Fang Heng's gaze to the battlefield in front of him, his heart thumping rapidly.
Large groups of mutated creatures fell, and more mutated creatures surged up.
It seemed endless!
And the Licker's vitality was terrifyingly tenacious!
Fang Heng's zombie clones also seemed to have endless vitality!

1645 Level up
Lu Yanlong even had a strange thought.
He even felt that if this continued, Fang Heng might be able to defend the entire outpost.
Fang Heng had been paying attention to the numbers on his retina.
The drop rate of mutant crystals was very low.
However, he couldn't resist the large number of kills!
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Fang Heng waved his hand again.
On the battlefield, tiny black crystals were drawn into Fang Heng's palm.
[Hint: The player has obtained Tier 1 mutant crystals*32.]
[Hint: The player has currently satisfied the Level 31 requirements. Do you want to level up?]
Finally!
He had gathered enough!
Fang Heng's heart skipped a beat as he glanced at Lu Yanlong, "Step back a little."
Lu Yanlong did not know what Fang Heng was going to do. Seeing his grave expression, he quickly retreated to the entrance of the outpost.
Fang Heng thought to himself, "Level up."
Crack, crack…
Cracks appeared on the ground around Fang Heng, which had been eroded by the sandstorm.
Green-gray hands stretched out from the crack.
Lu Yanlong, who was standing within the outpost, was surprised to see this.
Zombies!
Fang Heng was summoning zombies again!
He could actually summon so many at once?!
The horde of zombies crawled out of the sand and began to gather in the direction of the battlefield.
[Hint: The player's level has increased to Level 31. Due to the player's innate skill, the player has obtained an additional 438 zombie clones.]
[Hint: Current number of zombie clones: 2,625.]
[Hint: The player's Level 32 upgrade requirements: Tier 1 mutant crystal*250.]
Very good!
Including the proliferators, he would have the combat power of ten thousand zombie clones under ideal conditions!
Fang Heng felt the slight tremors coming from the ground and was extremely satisfied.
Looking at the game hint, the difficulty of leveling up to Level 32 was not high.
Continued to work!
Continue to level up!
Fang Heng shifted his gaze to the zombie crowd that was crawling out of the ground and moving forward slowly.
A total of 438!
The zombie clones that he had just obtained through leveling up hadn't undergone any modification, and couldn't change their form.
Their combat ability was limited.
However, they could be used as a human wall and act as sandbags to block the attacks of the mutated monsters.
Other than that, there were also some miscellaneous matters that could be handed over to them.
For example, moving corpses.
After farming for more than half an hour, the corpses of the mutated monsters on the ground piled up into a thick layer.
It was time to start the sacrifice.
Lu Yanlong stood at the side, watching the large number of zombies that Fang Heng had summoned slowly advance. His expression became even more solemn.
What was Fang Heng doing now?
The newly born zombies staggered to the edge of the battlefield, carrying the mutilated mutated monsters' corpses out and throwing them into the altar blood pool that had been built not long ago.
"Chi!"
Under Fang Heng's control, the altar began to burn with purple flames.
The flames burned the blood in the blood pool and carried out the preliminary purification.
In Lu Yanlong's eyes, all of this seemed particularly strange.
What was this?
Lu Yanlong couldn't help but cast a questioning look at Fang Heng.
He really wanted to ask what the zombies were doing.
Why were they collecting corpses for?
Evil necromancy?
[Hint: The blood altar has absorbed fresh blood.]
[Hint: The blood altar level upgraded to Level 2…]
[Hint: The blood altar is refining blood…]
[Hint: The player's skill, Descent, has been reset.]
Fang Heng glanced at the game hint on his retina.
He noticed Lu Yanlong's gaze.
Seeing that everything was on the right track, he paused the manual operation and shifted his gaze to Lu Yanlong. He asked, "I heard that you are proficient in spatial science?"
"Huh?"
Lu Yanlong was stunned for a moment as if he did not expect Fang Heng to suddenly change the topic in such a strange direction. He subconsciously said, "Ah, yes, spatial science. I've learned it."
"Level?"
"Master level spatial science."
"Yes, that's very powerful."
Lu Yanlong smiled bitterly in his heart when he received Fang Heng's praise.
In the past, most people would be as envious and impressed as Fang Heng when he talked about the spatial science studies he had learned.
In all disciplines, there had always been discussions about which academic was the most difficult, and there was often no conclusion.
However, it was almost common knowledge that spatial science was one of the top three most difficult subjects to learn.
Spatial science had a high requirement for talent!
To be able to level up his spatial science to the master level was truly extraordinary.
Lu Yanlong had always been proud of it.
But…
After witnessing Fang Heng's abilities, and now being praised by Fang Heng, Lu Yanlong had a strange feeling.
"Can you demonstrate spatial science to me?"
Fang Heng looked at Lu Yanlong with anticipation in his eyes.
"Huh? Demonstrate? Now?"
Lu Yanlong opened his mouth, feeling even more confused.
Was he going to demonstrate spatial science at this time?
What did he want to do?
"Yes, is it convenient? I've talked to Hector before. If you're free, I need you to help me with something."
"That's nothing…"
As Lu Yanlong spoke, he glanced at the intense battle not far away and the zombies who were busy moving the corpses to the altar.
He asked uncertainly, "Now? Right here?"
"Yes."
"Alright, there are many spatial science abilities. Which one do you want to see?"
"Anything is fine. Show me something you're good at."
"I'm more skilled in dimensional projection spatial movement. This move can help me avoid damage and can also move short distances within the dimensional projection space. It's an extremely practical technique, but the consumption of this move is a little too high, so I can't use it continuously."
Lu Yanlong explained and nodded at Fang Heng.
"I'm going to start the demonstration."
A spinning alchemy magic array appeared in Fang Heng's right pupil.
"Okay, let's begin."
Whoosh!
Fang Heng narrowed his eyes.
He saw tiny specks of light appear around Lu Yanlong. Following that, Lu Yanlong's body seemed to melt. In just a short second, it quickly dimmed until it melted into space.
Disappeared!
He could not sense Lu Yanlong's existence at all!
Fang Heng frowned. He sensed a spatial fluctuation not far behind him and quickly turned his head to look.
"Tsk!"
The space rippled like water.
Lu Yanlong stepped out.
The game hint quickly flashed across Fang Heng's retina.
[Hint: You have observed spatial science spells. Through the omniscient eye, you have comprehended basic spatial science. The player can choose whether to comprehend them or not: basic spatial science.]
Mastered!
[Hint: The player has chosen to comprehend: basic spatial science.]
[Warning: The player's spatial science talent is detected to be low, and the player has mastered at least three different academic and bloodline skills. Forcefully learning will cause the skill learning progress to be too slow, and you will be punished by the additional increase in the difficulty of upgrading the existing academic and bloodline skills. Do you want to continue learning?]

1646 Spatial Science
Learnt!
[Hint: The player has successfully mastered basic spatial science.]
[Skill: Basic spatial science (Level 1).]
Type: Academic skill.
Level: Level 1.
Description: Foundation perception 5, spatial perception 20.
Description: You have a deeper perception of space, but you still have a long way to go before you can truly use the power of space.
Description: Basic spatial science is a prerequisite skill for all types of spatial spells.
"How is it? Did you see it clearly?"
Lu Yanlong wiped the sweat off his forehead.
Escape into the secondary space projection to avoid all damage in this dimension!
In theory, this move could be used as long as one learned from basic spatial science. But it was only limited to theory.
Secondary space projections were extremely dangerous. There was almost a 100% chance that a basic spatial science player would be killed by the spatial turbulence after entering.
Usually, only after advancing to high-level spatial science would people be willing to try this move.
Even if it was him, without considering the subsequent backlash, he could at most hide in the secondary space projection for 30 seconds.
In order to demonstrate to Fang Heng, he held on for 10 seconds this time. He was already close to his limit.
Other than that, at this stage, most of the other spatial-type rapid transition skills required a longer time to guide the skill and use the magic array together.
In short, compared to most other disciplines, spatial science was a field of study that could be ranked first in terms of comprehensive strength.
At least in terms of life-saving ability, there were very few disciplines that could compare to spatial science.
"Yes."
Fang Heng nodded and continued to ask, "How do I level up in spatial science?"
"Hmm?"
Lu Yanlong looked at Fang Heng and became even more confused.
Why was he asking this? Could it be that he still had some immature thoughts about spatial science?
Lu Yanlong saw an affirmative answer from Fang Heng's face.
"What? Don't tell me you're also…"
"Yes, I'm a beginner in spatial science."
Fang Heng nodded lightly.
He heard from Hector earlier on that when he encountered danger, Lu Yanlong would use the special ability of spatial science to take him to escape and retreat. Since then he suddenly became very interested in spatial science.
It sounded like spatial science was very suitable for escaping.
There was nothing he could do. The enemies in front of him were too strong.
When faced with a situation where they could not win, it was never wrong to think of a way to escape in advance.
Therefore, Fang Heng took the lead in putting spatial science on the agenda.
Lu Yanlong re-examined Fang Heng from head to toe several times, his eyes filled with doubt.
Are you sure you're not a necromancer?
"Ahem."
Fang Heng felt helpless being stared at. He coughed lightly and asked, "How do you train in spatial science?"
"Oh…"
Lu Yanlong came back to his senses.
One of the mission statements of the Starfish Company was that the customer was God.
Therefore, don't get to the bottom of it, and don't doubt them.
Lu Yanlong tried his best to be more professional.
He looked at Fang Heng carefully and asked, "There are some differences in each stage of spatial science. Boss Fang learned until which level?"
"Foundation."
Phew…
Lu Yanlong heaved a sigh of relief.
He was a little worried that Fang Heng would suddenly tell him that he was already a spatial science scholar at the grandmaster level.
Lu Yanlong explained, "There are three ways to gain experience in basic spatial science. The first is to read books. Reading spatial science-related books in-game and out of the game can give you the corresponding experience. Unfortunately, there aren't many similar books, so it's quite troublesome to collect them."
"The second method is to use the spatial teleportation channel to sense the power of space during the teleportation process. This method is relatively safe and is also the method used by most players."
"It's just more troublesome. The experience points gained each time is relatively little, and using the spatial teleportation passage back and forth consumes a lot of stamina. It's very easy to experience spatial dizziness, and you have to pay when you use the spatial teleportation channel."
"As for the third method, it is to enter the secondary space projection to sense the spatial energy. This method is the fastest, but it is also the most dangerous. If you are not careful, you will be sucked into the chaotic spatial turbulence…"
As Lu Yanlong spoke, he couldn't help but shrink his neck. He thought of the scene when he first entered the secondary space projection.
If it wasn't for his good luck, he might have died inside.
Fang Heng narrowed his eyes and asked, "What will happen?"
"One will be completely shattered by the power of space! Even his soul would find it hard to recover."
Fang Heng rubbed his chin. He understood.
To put it simply, the first method was to spend time collecting books and slowly reading them to improve.
The efficiency was too slow.
The second method was to spend money and time continuously using the teleportation passage to comprehend the power of space.
The effect was equally bad.
As for the third option, it was to risk his life!
No wonder that it was said that spatial science was extremely difficult to learn without the support of a strong talent.
However…
Fang Heng felt that the difficulty was actually just that.
First of all, his passive imprint skill could be used with the zombie clone to increase his spatial science talent!
Talent was not a problem for him!
Secondly, with a large number of zombie clones, the problems encountered by ordinary players were not a problem for him at all!
For example, the second method was very good.
It was just teleportation.
In any case, his prison had a spatial teleportation passage.
At most, he could spend more energy to let the 10,000 zombie clones farm continuously for 24 hours!
His experience points would quickly rise!
As for the third method, it was even more perfect!
Playing with his life?
That was great!
Let the zombie clones play!
A perfect match!
It just so happened that so many zombie clones were born after upgrading.
The ordinary, untransformed zombies were no longer able to adapt to the high-level game world.
Leaving them idle was a waste.
A portion of them could be consumed.
Moreover, the spatial turbulence in the secondary space projection could solve a small problem for him.
The zombie clone's suicide.
In the future, if the zombie clone wanted to commit suicide, it could just escape into the secondary space projection and be done with it!
He could farm experience points for spatial science and solve the problem of suicide.
Why not?
Fang Heng couldn't help but feel happy when he thought about it.
He didn't expect learning spatial science to be such a good thing.
He raised his head and asked, "How does the secondary space projection activate?"
"You, are you crazy? Ah, wait, Mr. Fang, I didn't explain it clearly just now. Let me make it clear. The death rate of basic spatial science is 100% when they enter the secondary space projection! Unless one's talent was heaven-defying, it is impossible for them to survive!"
Lu Yanlong was shocked when he heard this. He stared at Fang Heng and even started to speak incoherently.
How dare a foundation spatial science scholar enter the secondary space projection so recklessly?
"Yes, I understand."
Lu Yanlong looked at Fang Heng, not knowing what to say.
"Mr. Fang, are you serious?"
Or else?
Do you think I am bored?
Fang Heng pursed his lips and said, "I'm not messing around with you. Let's get down to business. I don't plan to take the risk of entering the secondary space projection. You want to tell me how to activate it?"

1647 A Trial
"I see. It isn't difficult to activate the secondary space projection."
Lu Yanlong heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Fang Heng say that he wasn't the one who wanted to enter the secondary space projection.
"Beginners have a relatively low perception ability of space, and they need to rely on a magic array to integrate into the projection. Actually, it's not difficult to enter the projection, but the difficult part is how to get out. Only one can enter the projection, and no one else can help…"
"Don't worry about how to come out."
At this stage, Fang Heng did not think about coming out. He waved his hand and asked, "Do you have the magic array blueprint?"
"Yes, I remember everything."
Lu Yanlong pointed at his head as he spoke.
For a master-level spatial science scholar, the secondary space projection magic array blueprint was like a multiplication table that was firmly engraved in his mind.
Fang Heng did not stand on ceremony. He took out a pen and paper from his backpack and handed them to Lu Yanlong.
"Come, draw one."
Lu Yanlong took the pen and paper and handed the completed blueprint to Fang Heng in less than three minutes.
[Hint: The player has obtained the blueprint of the secondary space projection passage.]
[Hint: Detected that the player has mastered alchemy, spatial science, occultism, and sealing art. The current player has a 100% chance of learning this blueprint. Time consumed: 3 seconds. Do you want to learn it?]
Learnt!
A 3-second channeling bar flashed past Fang Heng's head.
[Hint: Judgment successful. The player has successfully learned the magic array-secondary space projection passage.]
Fang Heng's brain quickly integrated the relevant information about the magic array.
The structure of the magic array reminded Fang Heng of the dimensional space passage he had opened when he first cultivated the sealing art.
Both required a magic array to activate, and the structure of the magic array was similar.
However, upon closer inspection, the two were completely different!
The secondary space projection of spatial science could only be integrated into the caster, and each of them had an independent secondary projection.
In theory, as long as you entered the secondary space projection unless the enemy was five or six levels higher than you, they would not be able to affect you at all.
Fang Heng judged that his zombie clone could also enter the secondary space projection.
After all, it was a clone.
The game's logical judgment was another version of himself.
As for the results, he had to test it further.
Basic magic arrays were very easy to set up.
As for the energy source that powered the magic array, Fang Heng did not bring it with him.
It didn't matter.
He could directly use the cosmic crystal to replace it.
It was just a little extravagant.
He could give it a try!
Fang Heng closed his eyes and quickly rehearsed. After confirming that there were no problems, he squatted down and began to set up the magic array.
Lu Yanlong watched as Fang Heng briefly glanced at the magic array blueprint and then started setting it up without saying a word. He was so shocked that his eyeballs almost fell out.
What did he mean?
He was already setting up the magic array?
It's just…
Too, too fast!
A channeling bar appeared above Fang Heng's head again.
In less than two minutes, Fang Heng easily set up the auxiliary magic array of the secondary space projection passage.
The energy provided by the cosmic crystal mine was so powerful that Fang Heng had no choice but to add a smaller conversion magic array beside it.
Everything went smoothly!
After he was done setting up, Fang Heng turned his head to look at Lu Yanlong.
"Will this magic array work?"
"Yes, yes."
"What's next?"
Lu Yanlong explained in a low voice, "Next, we need to perform spatial perception. Through the activation of the magic array, the space around us has already experienced a periodic fluctuation. You need to try your best to sense the fluctuation of the secondary space projection passage. After you succeed, you will receive a game hint and learn a skill."
Fang Heng closed his eyes and tried to sense the spatial fluctuations around him.
His perception attribute was not low. Basic spatial science also added an additional spatial perception ability.
Almost as soon as he closed his eyes, Fang Heng immediately sensed the periodic spatial fluctuations coming from the magic array beside him.
Without much effort, the game hint quickly appeared on his retina.
[Hint: Player is attempting to learn the skill-secondary space projection passage…]
[Hint: Comprehensively determine the player's current attributes, spatial science skill level… The player has successfully comprehended the secondary space projection passage!]
[Warning: The player's current spatial science level and talent in spatial science are too low. Forcefully entering the secondary space projection will lead to extremely dangerous consequences. Please be careful.]
[Skill-Secondary space projection.]
Skill level: SSS.
Skill description: Secondary space projection is a projection of the world created by the player's body. The player can use the power of space to enter the projection to avoid damage from the real world.
Skill description: Entering the secondary space projection may cause irreversible damage to the player. Please use this skill with caution.
Skill description: This skill is extremely dangerous. It is recommended that the player try to use it after upgrading his spatial science to the advanced level.
It was actually an SSS-level skill!
Fang Heng was surprised when he saw the description of the skill.
In theory, players who had mastered spatial science could learn this skill.
An ordinary player learning an SSS-level skill?
It looked like a good profit.
However, Fang Heng soon realized that secondary space projection was actually a skill with extremely loose entry requirements, but it was extremely difficult to use in reality.
Even Lu Yanlong, who had mastered master-level spatial science, could only unleash less than 20% of the effect of secondary space projection.
Lu Yanlong stood by the side and carefully observed Fang Heng's every move.
He had made up his mind to interrupt Fang Heng as soon as he discovered any signs of him entering the secondary space projection passage!
It was too dangerous!
With Fang Heng's current beginner state, rashly entering the secondary space projection was no different from courting death.
However, Lu Yanlong never expected that he would suddenly sense a spatial fluctuation coming from behind Fang Heng.
What the hell!
Lu Yanlong's eyes widened as he looked at the dozens of zombies behind Fang Heng in disbelief.
To his surprise, he saw faint light spots of space power gradually appearing around the zombies.
What was that?!
The zombies were using spatial element power?
Under Lu Yanlong's horrified gaze, the zombie's body began to gradually enter the secondary space projection passage.
What was the meaning of this? The zombies summoned by Fang Heng could also use spatial science skills!?
Lu Yanlong's heart was filled with shock!
The zombie's body slowly merged into the surrounding space.
"Pfft! Tsk tsk!!!"
Its body failed halfway through the fusion, and violent fluctuations appeared in space!
The seven zombies were dragged into the spatial rift by the violent spatial fluctuations!
[Hint: The player's zombie clone failed to use the skill to enter the secondary space projection passage. The player's zombie clone has been dragged into the spatial rift…]
[Hint: The player's zombie has received spatial distortion damage and is dead. The player's zombie clone will be revived in 4 hours and 9 minutes.]
[Hint: The player's zombie clone has successfully entered the secondary space projection passage.]
[Hint: The player's zombie clone has sensed the power of space in the secondary space projection. Player's spatial science experience points 2109, Player's spatial talent 0.001]
[Hint: The player's zombie clone has been affected by the spatial turbulence in the secondary space projection. The zombie clone has died…]

1648 Work!
Fang Heng opened his eyes abruptly and felt a wave of dizziness in his head.
In the past, the zombie clone could take the initiative to use a skill that consumed very little MP.
The skill of entering the secondary space projection passage did not cost MP at all.
Theoretically, zombie clones could use this skill as well.
However, Fang Heng realized that it was not very effective when he used the skill.
Different from before, he only needed to order the zombie clone to run and complete simple skills.
Perhaps it was because the SSS-level skill was extremely difficult to use. With just one command from Fang Heng, the zombie clone could not complete the corresponding operation. He still needed to divert his attention to control it.
Doing so would consume Fang Heng's extra mental energy.
This consumption of mental energy was not reflected in the numerical value!
Previously, Fang Heng had experienced a surge in his spiritual power when he entered the game world of the Barbaric World.
Therefore, he was clear that the reason why his head was dizzy and that he couldn't fully control the zombie clone was that his spirit attribute wasn't enough.
For the time being, he couldn't send a large number of zombie clones into the secondary space projection to cast the skill.
In addition, the difficulty in releasing the skill was also related to his low proficiency in the skill, low level in spatial science, and low talent in spatial science.
Fang Heng took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. He reached out and wiped the sweat off his forehead.
The mental energy consumption was a little high, but it was far from the point of backlash.
At least this attempt was a success.
As long as he was given a little more time, he would be able to raise his spirit attribute, spatial talent, and spatial level together!
By that time, the efficiency would only increase!
Lu Yanlong came back to his senses after the initial shock.
He knew that the zombies who had tried to enter the secondary space projection were controlled by Fang Heng.
Obviously, none of the zombies came out alive.
Lu Yanlong carefully looked at Fang Heng and asked, "Mr. Fang, are you okay?"
"Yes, I'm fine. Thank you."
Fang Heng rested for a while, then continued to control the zombie clones.
The next step was simple.
He just needed to hack and level up.
Fang Heng stood where he was and controlled more than 10 zombie clones to enter the secondary space projection passage every 10 minutes. He started to farm the spatial science skill experience points.
Then, he rested for another ten minutes to recover his energy.
During the break, he observed the battlefield and collected the evolutionary crystals dropped by the mutated creatures.
…
As time passed, game notifications kept appearing on Fang Heng's retina.
[Hint: The player's zombie clone has sensed the power of space in the secondary space projection. The player's spatial experience points 5,099, and the player's spatial talent 0.001.]
[Hint: The player's spatial science skill level has increased to Level 4.]
[Hint: The player's zombie clone has been affected by the spatial turbulence in the secondary space projection. The zombie clone has died…]
[Hint: The player's level has increased to Level 32. Due to the player's innate skill, the player has obtained an additional 525 zombie clones.]
[Hint: Current number of zombie clones: 3,150.]
[Hint: The player's Level 33 upgrade requirement: Tier 1 mutant crystal*1,200.]
The wails of zombies could be heard again.
More zombie clones reached out from the surrounding underground desert and struggled to climb out, gathering around Fang Heng.
Level 33 required 1,200 Tier 1 mutant crystals.
It was a little difficult.
Fang Heng wasn't sure if he would be able to survive until the mutated monsters completely retreated tonight.
As for the spatial skill experience points, it was a very metaphysical skill.
Every time the zombie clone went to the secondary space projection, he would get a different harvest.
Some of them were worth tens of thousands of points, while others were worth nothing.
Similarly, none of the zombie clones successfully returned to the world through the secondary space projection passage.
Continue to work hard!
When his spirit recovered Fang Heng continued to control more than ten zombie clones entering the secondary space projection.
At this moment, in the main base of the Federation about ten kilometers away from the sentry tower, a large number of mutated creatures surged from all directions!
They were blocked outside the high-voltage electric fence at the outermost layer of the camp!
Electric sparks flashed crazily!
The guards of the Empire had solemn expressions.
The number of mutated creatures today was more than the previous few days!
In the past, the player teams that were entrusted by the Federation to guard the outpost would often shout that they couldn't take it and hint at the Western District Federation to increase their pay.
But no matter what, they could at least last for an hour and a half.
Some of them could even last up to three hours!
But today, in just over an hour, most of the player teams had already abandoned the outpost and retreated.
Just as the federal soldiers were using long-range sniper rifles to weaken the number of high-level mutated creatures on the sentry tower, the iron gate to the west of the camp opened.
More than ten military trucks loaded with supplies slowly left the camp.
When the guards saw this, they could not help but feel puzzled.
What's the situation in the south?
Why were they still sending supplies out at this time?
Speaking of which, it was a little strange. It seemed a large number of mutated creatures were attacking in all the other directions, but the South seemed to be very calm.
Even until now, he had not received any warning of danger.
It looked as if the mutated creatures that were attacking the south had scattered in the other three directions.
"Be alert! Prepare to release a high-intensity electromagnetic barrier!"
The leader's shout pulled everyone's attention back.
"Yes, sir!"
At the same time, in the central command room of the camp.
Patrio, the regional commander in charge of guarding the camp, also saw the scene of the transport truck through the surveillance screen.
He asked with a frown, "What's going on?"
"Sir! It is a material delivery order signed by Sergeant Dallas."
What time was it?
They even had the time to transport supplies?
A hint of anger appeared on Patrio's face.
What was Dallas doing?
In the past few days, he had heard a lot of complaints from Dallas about the outpost's commission.
In the words of Dallas: 'A bunch of unruly people!'
Today, he was inexplicably distributing supplies to this group of useless people.
Was his brain kicked by a donkey?
Seeing that Commander Patrio's expression was unfriendly, a soldier explained, "The supplies are transported by the people of the Starfish Company to Outpost No. 8."
"Outpost No. 8?"
"Yes, the Starfish Company team is still guarding Outpost No. 8."
Patrio acknowledged the reason and fell silent.
Starfish Company was a large resource company.
It was normal to have such strength.
Even so, if Dallas were to stand in front of him, Patrio would be furious and question Dallas why he was wasting resources on those unruly people!
Soon, elite-level mutated creatures would appear among the monsters.
It was impossible for anyone to continue guarding the outpost!
It would be a waste to send them supplies now!
In the offline command room, as more and more player companies could not withstand the attacks of the mutated creatures and began to retreat, the entire hall gradually quieted down.
