Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 1196 - 1196 Infection Alert

1196 Infection Alert

The group of dark serpents had already sensed Fang Heng’s group. They revealed their figures from the darkness further away and surrounded Fang Heng’s group, making hissing sounds.

The dark serpents didn’t dare to approach them for the time being, as if they were on guard against the silver light coming from the silver door behind Fang Heng and the others.

Qiu Yaokang looked at the group of dark serpents and said, “After generations of optimization and reproduction, the dark serpents that live here are already used to being exposed to this high concentration of virus for a long time. Their bodies have also been modified by the virus, and they are harder to deal with than the dark serpents we just encountered outside.”

“Swish!”

!!
While Qiu Yaokang was talking, one of the dark serpents lost its patience and tried to approach.

“Get lost!”

Wangnet’s pupils shrank. He dodged and took a few steps forward. With a loud shout, he raised the blackthorn in his hand and thrust it forward.

“Ka!!”

The black spike left a wound on the dark serpent’s skin, and it was flung away.

“Hiss hiss! Hiss hiss hiss!”

The injuries of their companions triggered the ferocity of the dark serpents, and more dark serpents slithered out of the darkness, launching a surprise attack on everyone.

Under Fang Heng’s control, the fusion Tyrant form took the lead to block the attack.

The dark serpent suddenly jumped up, opened its huge mouth, and used its sharp black fangs to stab the shoulder of the fusion Tyrant form. Then, its body quickly wrapped around the fusion Tyrant form, tightly binding it.

The sound of bones cracking could be heard as the dark serpent wrapped itself around the fusion Tyrant form. It raised its fist and punched the dark serpent.

“BOOM!!”

The fist landed on the dark serpent’s body and made a dull sound.

The fusion Tyrant form’s hammer had no effect, so it could only pull the dark serpent off its body with great effort and throw it toward the wall.

So hard?

Fang Heng was originally thinking about whether it was possible to continue killing another wave of monsters. Seeing that the dark serpent was not easy to deal with, he immediately called the Lickers behind him to charge forward and kill it!

The Lickers quickly pounced, their sharp claws scratching the dark serpent’s body.

The sharp claws seemed to have scratched hard alloy armor, leaving dark sparks.

Upon closer inspection, the dark serpent’s skin was covered in a layer of black crystallized armor.

The crystallized form absorbed a large amount of impact and laceration damage.

In less than a minute, more and more mutated dark serpents surrounded them, but they couldn’t even kill a single one.

With the party’s current damage output, it was impossible to slowly clear out these dark serpents.

Fang Heng said with a frown, “There are too many dark serpents. Find a way to break in and check the Imperial mausoleum. Don’t get entangled with them.”

“I’ll do it.”

Tang Mingyue nodded in agreement. She took out a flashbang and threw it forward.

“Woof!”

The flashbang exploded in front of him, illuminating the surroundings as if it were daytime. At the same time, it also released high-frequency sound waves.

The dark serpents quickly retreated as if they had met their natural enemy.

In just a short moment, the entire hall fell silent again.

“Hurry up. They’re very smart and will come back soon.”

Taking advantage of the gap in the retreat of the dark serpents, everyone quickly ran toward the center of the hall.

After running for about twenty steps, the surrounding dark serpents emerged from the darkness again, slowly approaching the group again.

Seeing that everyone had entered the empty hall area, Fang Heng suddenly had an idea and said in a deep voice, “There’s a way, they can’t fly!”

Wangnet’s brows twitched and he immediately understood. He reached out to grab Qiu Yaokang and Sandy and slowly floated into the air. He nodded to Fang Heng and said, “I’ll leave the rest to you.”

“Alright!”

Fang Heng immediately carried Tang Mingyue on his back and flew into the air with the levitation spell.

The entire hall was built very high, at least eight meters.

The group floated more than four meters in the air, avoiding the attacks of the dark serpents below.

Tang Mingyue, who was behind Fang Heng, lowered her head and looked down at the densely packed dark serpents that were gathering more and more. She couldn’t help but feel a chill on her scalp.

It would be game over if she fell down.

“Oh?”

The floating flight speed was very slow. After flying for just a few minutes, Sandy’s face suddenly revealed a look of surprise. He pointed in a direction not far away and said, “There, there’s no snake there!

Fang Heng looked in the direction Sandy was pointing at. They seemed to have arrived at the center of the Imperial mausoleum.

A large stone statue of the Empire’s ancestors stood in the center, surrounded by altars and offerings.

There was a large alchemy magic array not far from the stone statue.

The magic array was almost completely destroyed and could not be used.

Qiu Yaokang, who was being held in the air by Wangnet, also observed from a distance. He frowned and said, “The dark serpents don’t even dare to get close. There must be something strange in this area. Be careful.”

“Yes.”

Fang Heng answered and continued to approach carefully.

In the middle of the alchemy magic array that had been destroyed was a shallow pit that had been dug out by man.

When he got closer, he saw that there was a beautifully decorated coffin inside the shallow pit.

However, the coffin had been destroyed by people, and only two-thirds of it was left.

There were also traces of wood shavings around it.

The dark serpents seemed to be very afraid of this place. They only occupied the outer area of the hall and did not enter the tomb area.

After making sure that the surroundings were safe, Wangnet and Fang Heng brought everyone down from the sky.

The crowd couldn’t help but be attracted by the coffin in front of them.

“That should be the coffin of the Empire’s ancestors, right? It seems like the old man at the door didn’t lie to us…”

Just as Wangnet took half a step forward, his face turned white, and the hair on his body stood on end. He quickly took a few steps back.

Seeing the expression on Wangnet’s face, Qiu Yaokang also realized something and suddenly shouted, “Not good, retreat! Don’t get close! There’s a demonic seed remaining there!”

Fang Heng’s pupils shrank, and his eyes revealed a strange look.

He quickly sized up the surroundings of the coffin.

A demonic seed?

Where was he?

As he thought about it, the game notifications on his retina quickly scanned through.

[Warning (from trial game difficulty): Player is exposed to an extremely dangerous infected area.]

[Warning (from trial game difficulty): Abnormal resistance has been detected in the player’s body. The player’s death probability after the infection has been reduced to 95.7%, and the probability of unknown negative effects is 100%.]

[Warning (from trial game difficulty): Player’s infection rate is increasing slightly.]

[Hint: Under this trial difficulty, players can eliminate all negative effects of high level and below after leaving the trial. Players can eliminate all negative effects of high level and above by consuming King of Gods’ points. (Can only eliminate non-soul negative effects obtained in this trial).]

Fang Heng saw that the unknown infection attribute in his character attribute bar began to rise. He quickly took two steps back and stood not far away, carefully looking at the coffin.

Qiu Yaokang was right. The demonic seed was in the coffin.

After leaving the coffin area, the infection rate began to slowly decrease again.
