Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 2248  Maintaining

"Steady! We can do this!"

Fang Heng watched from the sidelines, hearing every word of the conversation between the members of the Leaf tribe. He pondered whether he should lend a hand.

It didn't seem necessary.

Maintaining the balance between the Wood tribe and the Leaf tribe was crucial for reaping benefits.

Moreover, he truly didn't want to see the face of Vannes.

As he was thinking, a gprompt appeared on his retina.

[Hint: The player has triggered an emergency side mission-Maintain the magic array.]

Mission name: Maintain the magic array.

Mission description: The energy of the Leaf tribe's teleportation magic array is being interfered with by external influences, which could potentially lead to the failure of this teleportation. Please attempt to maintain the magic array to successfully complete the teleportation.

Mission requirements: Maintain the magic array to complete this teleportation.

Mission rewards: Ovi team friendship +50, Laef tribe friendship +20, Leaf tribe contribution points 100,000, Leaf tribe reputation 100,000 points.

Failure penalty: Affinity with the Leaf tribe -5.

Eh?

The rewards were so much higher than before?

Fang Heng hesitated.

Not to mention friendliness, contribution points could be exchanged for the Leaf of Life to speed up the growth of Abe Akaya.

Just as he was feeling conflicted, the ghint appeared again.

[Hint: Currently, the player's friendliness is approaching the critical point. A decrease in friendliness will cause the Leaf tribe to bechostile. Please be careful.]

Tsk.

Foolish Leaf tribe!

Fang Heng immediately dispelled the thought of intervening. "Helping you would be absurd!" he muttered to himself. Just as he was inwardly complaining, another ghint flashed on his retina.

[Hint: (Triggered by previous mission rewards): Failure of this mission will significantly increase the difficulty of subsequent Ye Tribe mission lines. It is recommended that the player accepts this mission line.]

[Hint: (Triggered by previous mission rewards): Failure of this mission will result in a significant decrease in the player's favorability rating with the Ye Tribe. It is recommended that the player accepts this mission line.]

Fang Heng's pupils contracted suddenly. He swiftly stepped forward, placing his hand on the magic array.

The ghints were crystal clear.

The external enemies were much stronger than the Wood tribe had anticipated! Maintaining the balance between the two sides was crucial to reap greater benefits! The Leaf tribe's teleportation magic array had to be completed!

"Buzz!"

As Fang Heng's hands made contact with the magic array, a surge of green light emanated from it.

Ovi's team had been desperately operating the magic array, nearing their limits, when suddenly they felt a powerful mental strength flowing into the magic array from the side, gradually stabilizing its restless energy.

They turned their heads to look.

It was actually Fang Heng?

A human could actually help them stabilize the magic array?

Fang Heng's omniscient eye rapidly spun in his right eye's pupil as he loudly commanded, "Concentrate!"

The members of the Leaf tribe, upon hearing this, felt a surge of determination and quickly redirected their focus back to the magic array.

The swirling magic array rapidly stabilized.

As the magic array was completed, the figures of Elder Vannes, Elder Ian, and over twenty accompanying members of the Leaf tribe materialized in the center of the magic array.

"Crack, crack, crack..."

Rapidly appearing cracks spread across the floor attached to the magic array, quickly extending outward.

"Bang!!!"

The entire magic array inscribed on the ground exploded with a resounding bang, turning into dust.

[Hint: The player completed the mission-Maintain the magic array. The player's Ovi team affinity +50, Leaf tribe affinity +20, Leaf tribe contribution points +100,000 and Leaf tribe reputation points +100,000.]

Luckily, they managed to resolve the situation just before the magic array shattered. It was a close call!

Ovi wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling as though he had just endured a battle spanning centuries, leaving him exhausted.

Turning back, Ovi cast a grateful glance towards Fang Heng. It was fortunate that Fang Heng had lent a hand at the last moment.

Reflecting on the incident now made him feel a bit shaken. If the teleportation had failed, there was even a chance that Elder Vannes and his group could have been trapped forever in the spatial turbulence!

"Elder Vannes, Elder Ian, are you both alright?"

Ovi composed himself and respectfully bowed to Elder Vannes and his companions.

"Hmm..."

Vannes nodded.

During the process of teleportation, he encountered a huge spatial turbulence.

"We're fine, the impact was minimal."

"Tellabout the situation here," Elder Vannes requested.

"Yes, Elder," Ovi quickly recounted the events that had just transpired. "Currently, the Wood tribe has hidden themselves outside the Temple of Incantation. We await your guidance, Elder Vannes."

"Humph, just the Wood tribe, nothing to worry about."

Elder Vannes replied with a hint of disdain.

"Just the Wood tribe dares to be so audacious?"

If they dare to come, they'll face a real fight.

Elder Vannes was confident they could handle them.

Suddenly, Vannes saw Fang Heng standing in the crowd and frowned.

For sreason, Vannes had a bad feeling.

"He's here too?"

Who?

Ovi's gaze followed Elder Vannes's direction, landing on Fang Heng. He nodded and explained, "Mr. Fang Heng was invited into the Temple of Incantation by Elder Rudyard. He was the first to discover the Wood tribe's Temple of Incantation."

Perhaps due to Fang Heng's assistance on two occasions, Ovi's favorability towards him had greatly increased, prompting him to speak up for Fang Heng.

"Just now, Fang Heng noticed the Wood tribe members hiding around the periphery of the Temple of Incantation and alerted us in advance."

Elder Vannes frowned.

Fang Heng again!

Every the encountered Fang Heng, his luck always seemed to take a turn for the worse.

"Alright." Elder Vannes didn't dwell on Fang Heng's matter any further, instead lowering his gaze to the damaged teleportation magic array on the ground. He continued, "What about the spatial fluctuation just now?"

"The teleportation magic array has been affected by a strong external interference. I suspect that it was done by the Wood tribe."

Ovi nodded and continued, "It was thanks to Fang Heng's help that we were able to barely maintain the operation of the magic array. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

Elder Vannes glanced at Fang Heng again, remaining silent this time.

He had indeed suspected, for a moment, that Fang Heng might have been behind it all. Now, it seemed unlikely.

Several accompanying members of the Leaf Tribe inspected the magic array and approached Elder Vannes.

"Elder, we've checked. The magic array has been completely destroyed by external forces. It's unlikely to be repaired in the short term."

Elder Vannes furrowed his brow.

It must have been the work of the Wood tribe!

They've severed the teleportation passage of the Temple of Incantation!

So the Wood tribe wanted to fight to the death?

Vannes' gaze gradually turned colder.

"What about the movements of the Wood tribe outside?"

"We've sent people to investigate. We've confirmed the presence of Wood tribe members hiding around the periphery of the Temple of Incantation. They haven't made any moves yet, and we haven't initiated any attacks either. After a brief reconnaissance, we immediately withdrew."

"Hmph, the Wood tribe!"

He had been fooled by the Wood tribe, nearly dying in the teleportation passage, and even had to rely on a human to be saved. Elder Vannes felt extremely displeased.

"Let's go, taketo see for myself. The Wood tribe surrounds without attacking—I want to see what they're up to!"

"Elder Vannes, please be careful," Elder Ian, who cwith Vannes, reminded him. "The Wood tribe's actions are peculiar. To avoid any deceit from them, I'll stay here temporarily. Please make sure not to stray far from the temple, lest you fall into the Wood tribe's trap."

"Very well, I'll leave it to you, Elder Ian."

After a brief discussion to understand the situation facing the Temple of Incantation, Vannes immediately led his subordinates to confront the Wood tribe outside the temple.

Seeing Ovi follow Vannes's group as they left the temple, Fang Heng also cautiously followed.

To assess the situation!
