Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 2446  Take It Slowly

Fang Heng had quickly and carefully read through the mission description, his brow furrowed in concern.

The Great Sage of the Holy Courtʼs bloodline!

It seemed very similar to the Death God bloodline of the undead faction.

Undoubtedly, the Holy Courtʼs bloodline advancement was far more challenging!

First, there were the rigid requirements.

He had not yet reached the master level in sacred studies.

To elevate his academic disciplines, he would need to find another method.

In comparison, leveling up in academic disciplines was relatively straightforward. After that, he would need to upgrade the Temple of Zeus to SS level and gather at least five thousand believers to absorb the power of faith...

These tasks could be approached gradually.

As for the final step—finding and sacrificing an SS-rated monster?

That was too difficult!

It was giving him a headache just thinking about it.

He could only take it slowly.

Fang Heng thought, slowly opening his eyes, and suddenly felt a stirring in his heart.

At that moment, everyone in the Great Hall was looking at him.

What was going on?

Fang Heng then realized that in the Great Hall, the divine light beam was shining solely on him.

Moreover, due to the influence of the Great Sageʼs crown, holy ripples were continuously emanating from him.

The believers gathered around, kneeling and praying to him.

The chief guard, who had met him earlier, also received the news and arrived with several guards. Seeing Fang Heng, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

He had been mistaken!

He hadnʼt expected this guy to be favored by the divine!

”Sir,” several guards came through the crowd and bowed to Fang Heng. ”If convenient, Bishop Will wishes to see you.”

Such a good turn of events?

Fang Heng glanced at the guards, thought for a moment, and nodded, ”Yes, of course.”

Since the advancement mission had been triggered, it no longer made sense to stay.

”By the way, my companions.”

”Their identities have not yet been confirmed. I will have them wait outside.”

”Alright.”

...

Soon, Fang Heng, under the escort of several guards, entered Bishop Willʼs lounge.

Archbishop Will stood up from his chair to greet him, wearing a warm smile as he looked at Fang Heng.

”Bai Mu, it has been a long time since the Holy Light Cathedral has seen a divine favored one. It is an honor for our cathedral.”

A divine favored one...

Fang Heng silently mused to himself.

This was the second time he had heard this term.

What did it mean?

It wasnʼt important.

Fang Heng quickly dismissed the thought and continued, ”Archbishop Will, I am here on behalf of Sir Karolina, the Purifier of the Holy Realm, to deliver a letter to you.”

”Yes, my guards have informed me. However, I am curious why the letter was not in your possession but was instead handed over to outsiders researching necromancy. My chief guard informed me that they seemed quite unusual.”

Fang Heng inwardly smirked.

The reason he was involved in this mission was precisely because Norbert and his group practiced necromancy.

It was understandable that they would be suspected.

After all, they were the insiders.

”I am not sure about that. The situation was urgent, and Sir Karolina may have entrusted the letter to those individuals for their strength in undead detection. However...”

Fang Heng paused, frowning as he added, ”Before I left, Sir Karolina did warn me to be cautious.”

”Hmph! I knew it!” The chief guard showed an expression of knowing. ”Archbishop, I had a feeling something was off when I saw them. I will bring them in.”

”Very well. Until we get to the bottom of this, control your temper, chief guard.”

”Understood!”

Soon, Norbert and the others arrived at the lounge under the chief guardʼs escort.

When they were in the lounge earlier, they had heard a commotion outside but were not sure what was happening. The chief guard had left in a hurry, and they were brought here afterward.

In any case, Norbert and the others were still confused.

They found it strange that Bai Mu had arrived before them.

Wasnʼt he supposed to be praying?

Norbert exchanged a glance with Bai Mu, seeking an explanation.

Unfortunately, the other party did not respond.

Norbert concealed his suspicions and handed the letter to the chief guard, nodding as he reported to Bishop Will, ”Bishop Will, this is the letter from Sir Karolina, the Purifier of the Holy Realm. I was sent to deliver it to you.”

Bishop Will took the letter from the chief guard and examined it, his brow furrowing.

Something was off.

The letter showed signs of having been opened.

Normal people might not notice, but he could discern it immediately.

Instead of inspecting the letter right away, Bishop Will looked up and asked, ”Thank you for your hard work. Did you encounter any trouble on the way?”

”With the Holy Lightʼs favor, we had good fortune.”

”What? So the letter was with you the whole time? It was not seized by outsiders?”

”Yes, we escorted the letter all the way here.”

”And no one else touched it?”

Norbert found Bishop Willʼs questioning peculiar.

Why was he asking this?

”Is this question so difficult to answer?”

”No, not at all,” Norbert nodded. ”Aside from your guardsʼ inspection, no one else touched it.”

”Good, you were very cautious. Karolina did not misjudge you.” Bishop Will nodded appreciatively and slowly broke the seal on the envelope, casually asking, ”Do you know what the letter says?”

”Sir Karolina instructed me to deliver the letter directly to you. Without Sir Karolinaʼs permission, I would not dare open it myself.”

”Very well.”

As Bishop Will opened the envelope and began reading carefully, his expression grew serious.

When he reached the last paragraph, his brow furrowed deeply.

After a moment, Bishop Will slowly set down the letter and asked, ”Did Sir Karolina mention anything else?”

”No. Sir Karolina only instructed me to deliver the letter to you personally. Anything further is to be handled according to your arrangements.”

”Hmm.”

Bishop Willʼs expression hardened as he said in a deep voice, ”Take them away and interrogate them thoroughly!”

”Yes, sir!”

The chief guard, with a cold smile, immediately took Norbert and his companions away for detention.

Norbert was horrified.

What was going on?!

He had not expected Bishop Will to turn against him after reading the letter, immediately shouting, ”Bishop Will! This must be a misunderstanding!”

Bishop Will said nothing, only watching as Norbert and his companions were dragged away by the guards.

Norbert remained confused and stunned.

What went wrong?

What did the letter say?

And why were only he and his two subordinates taken away?

Where was Bai Mu?

In the lounge, Bishop Will, with a somber expression, turned to Fang Heng and said in a deep voice, ”Fang Heng, as Sir Karolina suspected, these three practicing necromancy likely had ulterior motives and opened the letter secretly midway.”
