Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 1230 - 1230 The Entrance

1230 The Entrance

Fang Heng controlled the zombie clones for some time and suddenly thought of something. He turned to Tang Mingyue and asked, “Oh right, where’s Wei Tao and the others? Why didn’t I see them? Did they not go to the Land of Plague?”

Wei Tao?

Tang Mingyue blinked and shook her head, “No, I haven’t seen Wei Tao and the others since we split ways. They didn’t come back to the Land of Plague either.”

“That’s strange.”

!!
Fang Heng scratched his head and felt that something was not right.

In theory, Wei Tao should have immediately headed to the Land of Plague to meet up with them.

Did something happen on the way? Did he miss something?

“What about Ed? No news from Ed?”

“No, I thought they were in contact with you alone.”

“Forget it, they should have a plan.”

Fang Heng waved his hand and stopped thinking about it. He continued to concentrate on controlling the zombie clones to speed up the mining.

Wei Tao and the others were all experienced World Lords. They were not weak. They were most likely with Tang Mo and might have triggered other mission line.

Just as he was concentrating on controlling the zombies, another game hint appeared on his retina.

[Hint: Your zombie clones have found a hidden cave while digging.]

[Hint: Mission – The ore with an unknown aura has changed. The next stage of the mission has been triggered.]

[Mission name: Explore the cave]

[Mission difficulty: D]

[Mission description: While excavating the infected ores, you have discovered a hidden cave.]

[Mission requirement: Attempt to search the cave.]

Fang Heng’s eyes lit up and he looked at the others, “The mission has been triggered. Let’s go and take a look.”

…

In the mine outside the ghost tower, the undead ghost fog shrouded the surroundings.

Zombie clones kept coming and going, transporting the excavated high-grade energy crystal ores back to the mage tower.

Fang Heng and his team entered the iron mine.

The zombie clones dug about 20 meters forward in the direction of the mission guide, revealing a large stone chamber.

“Let’s go in and take a look.”

Fang Heng took the lead and stepped into the stone chamber while saying that, looking around.

There was an alchemy magic array on the ground near the center of the stone chamber.

A black aura that was visible to the naked eye was seeping out of the magic array.

Fang Heng felt a slight shake from the ground, and everyone couldn’t help but be vigilant.

Sandy stood at the door and watched carefully. He muttered to himself, “It’s a little similar, Fang Heng. It’s very similar to the seal of the abyss I saw in Andrast’s autobiography.”

Warren nodded at everyone and carefully walked to the edge of the alchemy array. He squatted and inspected it for a moment.

“Yes, Mr. Sandy’s previous judgment was not wrong. This is indeed the remains of the abyssal sealing magic array. This should be one of the passages leading to the underground abyss. The seal at the entrance is used to seal off auras,” Warren said as he looked around.

“This place was once completely sealed off. Probably due to the effects of the ley lines’ abnormal movement a few years ago, the rock mine was discovered by the outside world. During the excavation process, someone was affected by the leaked plague aura, and the iron mine was thus completely sealed off by the feudal lord.”

Warren lowered his head and continued to check the magic array. He reached out and tapped on the magic array a few times.

“Chi! Chi, chi!”

The moment his finger came into contact with the alchemy magic array, a thick black aura seeped out of the magic array.

“What’s this aura?” Tang Mingyue frowned and asked.

“It’s the plague aura. The abyssal demon’s arrival is usually accompanied by a boundless plague aura. A long time ago, this plague swept across the continent, causing a large number of lives to be lost. The plague aura is also slightly corrosive. As time passed and the sun and moon rotated, the seal was greatly affected. What we’re seeing now is the outer seal. After opening the seal, there will be a passage leading to the bottom. If we explore along the bottom, we should be able to find the true location of the abyssal demon.”

Hearing that, the others couldn’t help but turn their heads and look at Fang Heng.

Now, they had found the location of the abyssal demon. Should they go down and take a look?

“Everyone, I don’t suggest that we break the magic array and explore further now. Judging from the signs of erosion on the outer seal, the condition of the inner seal should be even worse. It’s extremely dangerous to open the seal rashly and enter the abyss to investigate,” Warren analyzed with a grave expression.

As he spoke, a game hint flashed across everyone’s vision.

[Hint: The player team has found the relevant clues according to the trial hints and has triggered the final stage of the trial mission – explore the sealed land of the abyss]

[Mission name: Explore the sealed land of the abyss]

[Mission difficulty: SSS]

[Mission description: You have found the place where the abyssal demon was sealed. Please try to search the sealed land.]

[Mission requirement: Search]

[Mission reward: ???]

“Hmm…”

Looking at the game mission hints, Fang Heng couldn’t help but ponder.

Just as he had predicted, the final goal of the trial was to deal with the abyssal demon.

It was extremely difficult.

At present, only two Tier 2 ghost towers had been built, and his ultimate skill, Everlasting Moon, was also on cooldown. Qiu Yaokang had not yet developed a special medicine to deal with the abyssal demon either.

Other than that, the enlightenment stone replica was still in the process of being made, and the sacred tree was still a long way from completing its current level-up.

There was also the aggressive Empire outside.

It was too risky to open the seal and explore without any preparation.

Even if they did find the abyssal demon, they probably wouldn’t be able to defeat it.

As such, it was better to play it safe and strengthen the seal first to buy themselves some time. They had to make sure that the abyssal demon wouldn’t break through the seal any time soon.

Fang Heng pondered for a moment and immediately nodded in response, “Mr. Warren is right. It’s too dangerous to open the seal and go down to investigate before we’re fully prepared. Is there any way to strengthen the seal?”

“Yes, I can try.”

Warren nodded and placed both his hands on the alchemy magic array.

The alchemy magic array was activated again, and it emitted a faint light.

Warren was trying to repair the corroded magic array when Wei Tao’s team assistant, Zhou Yu, hurriedly entered the room.

“Mr. Fang, you’re all here. The situation outside isn’t good. The Empire’s General Deng Wen brought a large number of elite soldiers and is approaching the outskirts of Lincoln City. I’ve scouted with my men, and the enemies are all elites. They’re well-equipped, powerful, and are in large numbers.”

As they were talking, there was a commotion outside the mine.

Another player ran in hurriedly. When he saw the crowd, he said anxiously, “Brothers, the warehouse has been sneak attacked. A few of the Empire’s teams have sneaked into the city by bypassing the city walls and are heading toward the City Lord’s mansion.”

“Mr. Fang, what should we do?”

Fang Heng lowered his head and estimated the time. He then raised his head and said, “It’s fine. Don’t worry about them. Call our people and retreat immediately.”

It was almost time.

The construction materials for the Tier 2 mage tower and the materials for the enlightenment stone replica had all been sent back to the Land of Plague. Even the materials that had been piled up in the city’s military warehouse and the City Lord’s personal warehouse had been moved away by the zombie clones.
