Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

1030 Ambush

In the distance, a black dot flew over the lake’s surface.

“It seems to be coming here! Hide!”

There was nothing to hide from in the surroundings. Fang Heng and Mo Jiawei jumped into the water at once and hid among the grayish-black remains on the lake’s surface.

He looked up and saw an eagle circling in the air.

The eagle had a vast body, and its wings were more than six meters wide.

There seemed to be someone standing on the back of the eagle, looking down.

Fang Heng was shocked.

“A human?”

Mo Jiawei immediately covered his left eye with one hand and tried to figure out the other party’s identity.

[ Character: Unknown ]

[ Hint: Your perception is much lower than the opponent’s. Your detection has failed. ]

[ Hint: Your actions may attract the attention of extraordinary people. ]

Mo Jiawei was stunned.

This was the first time he had encountered such a hint.

Only the Prince of Vampires was a bit stronger in the previous elementary games, but the intermediate game differed.

The eagle circling in the sky seemed to be only scouting. It did not stay long and soon flapped its wings and gradually left their sight.

Mo Jiawei said in a deep voice, “Fang Heng, this is a unique NPC. His perception is powerful. I can’t get any information from him.”

“I see.”

Fang Heng looked away from the sky and shook his head, “Forget it. Let’s not worry about it. Let’s focus on the main storyline first. Let’s find a way to complete the main task first.”

“Yes, yes.” Mo Jiawei was about to agree when he looked at the game hint. “This is strange. Wasn’t the dragon mosquito nest already destroyed? Why isn’t there a notification that the mission is complete?”

Fang Heng also found it strange and opened the mission panel again to check.

The first stage of the side mission was to investigate the cause of the appearance of the dragon mosquitoes. The second stage was to destroy the nest.

There was a tick at the end of the second phase of the quest, which meant that it had been completed.

“It seems like we have to continue our investigation.”

Fang Heng looked at the lake and said thoughtfully, “I remember Qiu Yaokang said that this lake might contain a lot of energy to breed dragon mosquitoes.”

Mo Jiawei suddenly understood. “Are you trying to say that there’s something under the lake?”

“Yes.”

Fang Heng looked at Mo Jiawei without saying a word. He only nodded in agreement.

“What?!”

Mo Jiawei blinked a few times before asking, “Shall we go into the water and take a look?”

“The lake is so big. I’m waiting for you to give the order to choose a place to investigate.”

“Big Brother, don’t do this. I don’t know how to choose a place. You can’t always use metaphysics.”

As Mo Jiawei spoke, he suddenly raised his eyebrows as if he had discovered something.

“What’s wrong?”

Mo Jiawei pointed at the lake not far behind Fang Heng and said, “Fang Heng, look. Didn’t bubbles come up from there?”

What?

Fang Heng turned his head and looked in the direction Mo Jiawei was pointing at.

Looking at the peaceful lake, Fang Heng also showed a suspicious look.

What? Were there bubbles?

Whatever. If Mo Jiawei said there was, then there was!

“Let’s go and look,” Fang Heng said immediately.

The two of them had learned skills related to swimming and diving in elementary games, so they did not waste any time and jumped into the water, swimming toward the bottom of the lake.

…

At the vanguard camp of the barbarian race, the young barbarian general Luo jumped down from the back of the Griffin and strode into the tent.

In the tent, more than ten barbarians were discussing something.

Loke looked around and shouted, “Commander, there was a strange movement in the dragon mosquito nest. When I checked, the nest had been destroyed, and there were signs of human activity. To avoid alerting the enemy, I did not reveal my identity.”

The tent instantly fell silent.

The young barbarian Commander, Ulmoye, was expressionless. It was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.

A moment later, Ulmoye let out a disdainful sneer. Heh, humans are indeed challenging to deal with.

An elder of the barbarian tribe looked at Ulmoye and said, “Commander, the humans may have already noticed our plan. I suggest we take action immediately.”

“What about you guys?”

“Commander, the ambush is ready. Since the dragon mosquito nest has been destroyed, there is no need for us to wait any longer. I suggest we attack immediately to avoid any trouble.”

“Yes. Go on!” Ulmoye nodded his head in satisfaction.

“Yes, sir!”

The barbarian officers were all excited. They left their tents one by one, ready to lead their men to invade the human territory.

Luo was the last to leave. After everyone had left, he asked, “Commander, do we need to retrieve the Stone of Origin?”

“There’s no need to waste any more time. The remaining energy in it has been exhausted. You should also take your men and set off immediately.”

“Yes!”

…

Outside the city gate of Hani City, the City Lord Brian had his brows tightly furrowed, and his face was filled with pain.

He apologized to Tang Mingyue for the fifth time. “Princess, I didn’t expect Hart to be such a person. I didn’t discipline my subordinates well enough. I’m humiliated. Please punish me, Princess!”

Tang Mingyue sighed heavily in her heart.

She also wanted to beat up Brian to vent her anger.

It was this idiot who wasted an entire night to find the traitor!

But so what if she beat him up to vent her anger?

It might even affect their relationship and make the subsequent quests more difficult.

Her heart was tired.

This game was challenging to play!

Before this, everyone had already prepared to confront City Lord Brian, so they were mentally prepared.

They did not expect the plot to change after finding Brian.

After investigating for a long time, they found no problem with Brian, but it was actually with the City Lord’s guard, Hart.

The City Lord, Brian, was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.

His guard had been hiding by his side for more than twenty years and had won his trust.

Who knew he was a traitor? Who the f*ck could stand this?

Fortunately, Tang Mingyue had returned safely this time. Otherwise, he, a mere City Lord, would have been finished!

“I’ll make up for my mistake.”

Tang Mingyue was helpless.

She was under a lot of pressure.

For this mission, the player team had already wasted more than ten hours.

Then, the follow-up mission came.

The traitor committed suicide by swallowing medicine after being found.

However, the players still had many means. After searching the soul’s memory, they found some clues.

It was related to the Ninth Prince!

Unless…

What a good show of fighting for the throne!

Tang Mingyue conjured up a Palace drama in her mind.

She was already starting to feel a headache, and her temples were twitching.

However, after the traitor committed suicide, there was no news of completing the game’s main storyline.

Did he have to go to the Empire’s central city to confront the Ninth Prince after completing the mission?

Wei Tao gathered everyone for a discussion, and in the end, they decided to split up again.

Tang Mingyue and Wei Tao returned to the capital of the Empire, Atamai, to continue their search for the traitor.

Riding the Imperial Military Griffins in Hani City would only take three hours.

Of course, this time, Tang Mingyue’s trip was a secret, which required the City Lord to coordinate and mobilize the Empire’s military resources in an emergency.
