Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 1910  Change

Good!

It was a significant victory.

Fang Heng had successfully defeated a high-tier elite team from the Holy Court and even managed to kill a commander, boosting his mission completion rate by 32%.

Finally, the mission completion rate had reached double digits, and with nearly eight hours remaining, the situation was not as urgent as before.

Rubbing his chin, Fang Heng glanced at the towering city walls in the distance. For a moment, he pondered whether he could continue besieging the fortresses, luring more Holy Court teams out to engage them in battle and further increasing his mission completion rate.

Not to that extent, the members of the Holy Court were not fools.

He had only succeeded in the sneak attack once. Repeating the feat would be challenging.

The next encounter would undoubtedly be with a stronger opponent.

He couldn't afford to give them more opportunities.

He had to seize the momentum!

Fang Heng immediately directed his zombie army to disperse and charge towards the military fortresses.

What a pity.

In a siege like this, the parasitic worm skill from the fusion Tyrant form would have been highly effective if given more time.

Unfortunately, the accumulation of the worm skill in the fusion Tyrant form took time. The newly reborn body lacked worms and required time for accumulation.

Additionally, in the current mid-tier game world, the soldiers of the Jones Kingdom had higher physical resilience, making them more resistant to the worm body. A small number of worms wouldn't have a significant impact.

At the moment, he could only let the zombies continue buying more time.

Soon, the magicite cannons on the city walls would likely be the first to give way.

After the intense battle, Fang Heng's spirit slightly relaxed, and a sense of fatigue set in.

Fang Heng took advantage of the break and turned to look at the players behind him. "What happened in the Enkama Empire and Jones Kingdom while I was away?"

Jasmin and the others exchanged glances.

One player nodded and said, "Just some rumors. There are reports of unrest on the Enkama Empire's front line due to the sudden rebellion in the Jones Kingdom. It might not hold for much longer, and they're reportedly preparing to retreat..."

Fang Heng's heart sank upon hearing this.

The battle in the Enkama Empire was interconnected.

The skirmish with the Jones Kingdom at the border was just a small part of the larger conflict.

If the front line collapsed, trouble would reach him as well.

Online, without adding Feudal Lord Dani as a friend on the survival radio, he couldn't contact her and was unaware of the specific situation on the front lines.

He needed to find an opportunity to communicate with Feudal Lord Dani.

"I'll log off first and see if there's any way to contact Feudal Lord Dani."

"I understand. Wait for me here. I'll log off and check."

"Alright, we'll wait..."

...

By the time Fang Heng logged off, it was already night.

The curtains in the hotel room were tightly drawn.

Exiting the game pod, Fang Heng noticed that the study's door was ajar.

It appeared that Gu Qingzhu had already left.

The phantom shadow rat was nowhere to be found.

On the desk lay a note written by Gu Qingzhu.

Fang Heng picked it up, glanced at it, and shrugged.

Gu Qingzhu had taken the phantom shadow rat for another bath.

Perhaps due to both of them undergoing the 'Sloth' ritual, they shared an exceptionally close bond.

"Seems like I need to quickly acquire beast taming, lest Gu Qingzhu ends up taking the phantom shadow rat away unintentionally..."

Fang Heng muttered to himself and reached for his phone to call Mo Jiawei.

"Hmm? What did you say? Feudal Lord Dani contacted you?"

Fang Heng had intended to reach out to Feudal Lord Dani to grasp the situation on the front line. Surprisingly, Feudal Lord Dani was ahead of him, having learned about his entry into Ciboreya and instructing Mo Jiawei to contact him.

"Yes, Feudal Lord Dani hasn't abandoned the front line. The current rumors are intentionally leaked by Feudal Lord Dani. They're planning a significant move."

Fang Heng suddenly understood.

No wonder all kinds of news were flying around outside.

So, all the circulating news was a stratagem devised by Feudal Lord Dani.

"Feudal Lord Dani is currently occupied online and can't break free. She's gearing up for action. If the plan succeeds, it might buy the Empire more time..."

On the other end of the line, Mo Jiawei sounded a bit tense. After a pause, he continued, "Fang Heng, we can't assist with matters on the front line. Feudal Lord Dani hopes you can fully take charge of all missions related to Jones Kingdom. They don't have any spare resources to allocate right now."

"Alright, convey my understanding to Feudal Lord Dani. Assign the Jones Kingdom mission line to me. I'll figure out a way to handle it."

"Good. Oh, and there's something else Feudal Lord Dani wanted me to inform you."

Mo Jiawei lowered his voice as he spoke, "In fact, the Holy Court has been eyeing the game world of Ciboreya for some time now. Feudal Lord Dani believes that, besides searching for the Saintess, they also aim to make a move on Ciboreya."

Fang Heng's heart skipped a beat at this revelation, and he couldn't help but frown.

The game world of Ciboreya?

"What do you mean? Please clarify."

"The game world of Ciboreya is exceptionally suitable for necromancy cultivation. It's said to be connected to some special changes during the world's initial establishment. Feudal Lord Dani is not entirely clear about the Holy Court's true intentions, but she has a premonition urging caution and attention to related information in this regard."

"Got it. Please convey my thanks to Feudal Lord Dani."

After ending the call, Fang Heng couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"Secrets related to the game world of Ciboreya..."

What a coincidence...

Could it be directly linked to the Holy Court's great holy sword mission?

Didn't Ji Xiaobo also notice the connection between the Holy God great sword and the game world of Ciboreya?

That was highly probable!

The more Fang Heng thought about it, the more he felt a possible correlation between the two incidents.

It seemed like the right time to get Ji Xiaobo involved in the game world.

Facing the Holy Court head-on required his full attention.

Ji Xiaobo's interest made him a perfect fit.

After some consideration, Fang Heng decided to split into two fronts. He would ask Mo Jiawei to get Ji Xiaobo to join Ciboreya and explore clues related to the great holy sword. Meanwhile, Fang Heng would handle the Holy Court in the military fortress.

...

From the beginning until now, the zombie creatures had besieged the three military fortresses for over two hours.

As the sun gradually set, the outside view became narrower.

Both sides were wearing each other down.

Anthea, leading the heavy-armored knight brigade, had charged back and forth hundreds of times, depleting their stamina multiple times. The reserve team had to step in, allowing for a brief respite.

Battle losses were steadily increasing.

The magicite cannons were starting to show signs of wear.

Undead creatures below the city walls seemed endless!

The Jones Kingdom was still holding on!

Fang Heng briefly went offline before quickly returning.

Glancing at the battlefield, he estimated the strengths of both sides, realizing this might not be sustainable.

The magical crystal cannons on the military fortress were too efficient at depleting the zombie forces.

The number of zombie clones was running out.
