Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 1902 Beetle

In his bat form, Fang Heng sped through the air.

He followed the map and headed straight for the point!

On the city wall, a sense of unease gripped the onlookers.

Undead creatures possessing a spatial traversal ability?

What if they could bypass the range of the magical crystal cannons with their spatial powers?

Did this imply that the undead could breach military fortresses?

Several ministers from the Jones Kingdom felt their lives were in jeopardy. One of them turned to Bishop Kotter, questioning loudly, ”Bishop, what assurances did you give us? You promised the safety of Jones Kingdom! And now?”

”Itʼs an accident. Please, remain calm.”

Bishop Kotter was also taken aback by Fang Hengʼs Licker and its special space abilities. After he regained his senses, he advised, ”The teleportation passage is rapidly charging. Reinforcements from the Holy Court will arrive soon. Trust us, weʼll swiftly handle the undead threat.”

Bishop Kotter knew he was in the wrong.

Now was not the time for words. Silence would be wiser.

”Enough! Shut up! Now is not the time for this! Consider how to deal with the enemies before us!”

Even the imperial uncle felt a sense of fear. Hearing the ministersʼ clamor, his frustration grew. He clenched his fists and demanded loudly, ”Can any of you go out and deal with the undead? Anyone?”

He had played a significant role in the collaboration with the Holy Court.

These skeptics were undoubtedly slapping him in the face repeatedly.

”If none of you can, then be silent!”

The imperial uncle stared at the outside of the city. ”Those threatened by the undead are my people. Do you think Iʼm not pained by this? Undead creature numbers are limited, their attack wonʼt last long. Once weʼve dealt with the undead outside the fortress...”

Bishop Kotter added, ”Reinforcements from the Holy Court are preparing. Weʼll activate the teleportation channel at full capacity. Donʼt worry, theyʼll arrive within two hours!”

...

Simultaneously, in the heart of the Enkama Empire, Li Qingran led a gathered team of players to face an elite Holy Court knights team attacking the town.

After a grueling defense, players charged out of the town, launching surprise attacks to exhaust most of the Holy Courtʼs forces. Only then did they manage to hold the town.

As the Holy Court team slowly retreated, everyone sighed in relief.

This time, players were almost at their limits, with no intention of chasing the Holy Court any longer.

Li Qingran also felt exhausted.

Five towns in the Enkama Empire had fallen one after another, and the quest completion rate and remaining game time continued to decrease.

The situation was far from optimistic.

She wondered how Fang Heng was faring.

It was still good news that she hadnʼt received a mission failure notification.

But it should be coming soon, right?

Unfortunately, for now, she couldnʼt continue the fight.

Li Qingran comforted herself and forced herself to open the game to check the mission.

[Hint: The playerʼs current mission is, Snipe the frontline Holy Court Army. Mission completion rate: 3.02%. The estimated remaining time of the current mission: 267 minutes.]

”Eh?” The mission completion rate and remaining time displayed in the game notification were beyond her expectations.

The completion rate of the mission was acceptable, just as she had expected, but there was so much time left.

A full four hours?

Fang Heng found a breakthrough.

Li Qingran was instantly excited and sent Fang Heng a message to inquire about the Survival Radio Station.

Li Qingran asked, ”Fang Heng, our current situation isnʼt too good. The Holy Court army holds split into multiple teams to attack the town. The strength of the teams varies, and weʼre being held back badly. Itʼs also very difficult to fight head-on. We just repelled a team and need some time to rest before we can continue fighting. Is the situation on your side okay?”

Less than half a minute after the message was sent, Fang Heng replied.

Fang Heng said, ”Iʼm figuring out a way to break through the Jones Kingdomʼs military fortresses. Thereʼs a teleportation passage built by the Holy Court in the fortress. Iʼm figuring out a way to break through the teleportation passage. Now that Iʼve made some progress, we can still buy some time here. Donʼt force yourself on your side. Take action after resting and try to maintain your combat strength.]

Seeing Fang Hengʼs reply, Li Qingran suddenly quivered.

The military fortresses of Jones Kingdom?

The teleportation passage of the Holy Court?

Had the war on Fang Hengʼs side already progressed to this extent?

On their side, Li Qingran could not help but look up at the players who possessed just repelled the Holy Courtʼs attack and were recovering.

”Iʼm here!”

At this moment, in the Jones Kingdom, Fang Heng closed the gameʼs survival computer communication and looked at a mountain stream in front of him.

It was the Creature gathering point leading to the military fortresses of the Jones Kingdom.

A large number of Demon Beetles resided in the mountain stream.

A relatively large beetle creature, about one meter long. It could fly for a short period and could attack with venomous stingers. It had the tribe attribute.

The Demon Beetle got its name because of the demonic pattern on its back.

The Licker could still move agilely in mountain streams, and it wouldnʼt be at a disadvantage against Creatures that could fly for a short period.

The crucial Demon Beetles didnʼt boast strong attributes, and all their attacks had been purely physical, with their primary means of output being poison.

In comparison, the Lickers had been in an unbeatable position.

It was perfect for his reinforcement plan!

Fang Heng reverted to his human form, pointing forward, ”Go!”

”Chi! Chi, chi!”

The Lickers immediately lunged towards the mountain stream ahead!

Entering the mountain stream, after finding the residing Demon Beetles, the Licker immediately pounced, employing the Corpse Sea tactic to overwhelm the few. Then, it relied on the Undeadʼs HP and the advantage of rapid life recovery to engage in close combat!

Once a Demon Beetle was knocked down by a Licker, numerous others joined in, tearing and biting in a frenzied attack.

Under attack, their companions triggered a massive influx of Demon Beetles from the surroundings, setting off a chain reaction.

”Buzz, buzz, buzz...”

Suddenly, the entire mountain stream echoed with the sound of Demon Beetles in flight, acting as a warning to intruders.

Fang Heng squinted, gazing at the mountain stream.

A vast expanse of gray unfolded before him!

Densely packed Demon Beetles almost obscured their vision.

Excellent!

Demon Beetles, huh?

Playing the human wave tactic, had been they?

The more, the merrier!

The Demon Beetles swarmed over!

However, it proved ineffective!

The Lickers, enduring the Demon Beetlesʼ onslaught, methodically nibbled and tore through them one by one!

The Demon Beetleʼs venom and stinger had been almost futile against the Lickers!

Soon, the HP bar of the first Demon Beetle was depleted by the relentless assault of the Lickers.

The Demon Beetleʼs corpse rapidly decayed, and from the rotting carcass, a flesh cocoon swiftly squirmed and congealed.

”Chi, chi chi...”

Three zombie clones crawled out of the holes in the flesh cocoons.
