Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 2632  On-the-Spot Assessment

The sealing art faction had always had a small number of members, which resulted in less intrigue and infighting.

Most of the people were very familiar with each other, and immediately someone began mocking with a laugh, saying, ”Mo, youʼre not being fair! When did you have disciples? Youʼve been hiding them from us all this time? Let us take a look, maybe we can give you some advice!”

”Seems like you didnʼt set this up so neatly before, are you taking someoneʼs money and helping them get in through the back door?”

”Pah, you old man, always slandering me. I wouldnʼt stoop to that,” Mo Jianghe scolded with a laugh. ”Alright, since youʼre all here, take a look. Iʼll let you see the student I personally dug up!”

”Oh?”

Hearing Mo Jiangheʼs words, everyone couldnʼt help but feel a stir in their hearts.

To make Mo Jianghe speak with such confidence, it seemed that this candidate indeed had some skills.

Everyone couldnʼt help but feel a little more anticipation building inside them.

Mo Jianghe knew Fang Hengʼs abilities. He activated the magic array again and spoke to Fang Heng, saying, ”Little disciple, focus and donʼt embarrass me. The more trials you pass, the higher the rewards will be!”

Rewards!

Hearing the word ”rewards” in the special trial space, Fang Heng immediately became energized.

Although the rewards hadnʼt triggered any official tasks from the game, Mo Jiangheʼs personal credibility was still something Fang Heng could trust.

Fang Heng looked around once more, then stepped forward.

As he reached the entrance of the passage, the temperature around him gradually began to rise.

Fang Heng could feel the scorching heat waves coming from the cavern ahead.

Not far from the entrance, there was a stone platform.

Fang Heng squinted slightly and moved forward to observe the stone slab in front of him.

On the slab, various materials required to create the seal blueprints were neatly arranged in categories.

Fang Heng nodded quietly.

It seemed that creating the seal blueprints was one of the difficulties of the trial.

Fang Heng nodded quietly.

It seemed that creating the seal blueprints was one of the difficulties of the trial.

Well then, he decided to first make a batch of seal rune papers.

Fang Heng picked up the paper and pen and quickly began drawing the seal rune paper. A channeled progress bar appeared above his head.

After a moment, the rune paper was completed.

[Hint: The player has completed high-tier seal rune paper*100.]

Inside the trial hall, the examiners nodded in approval.

At least at this step, there were no issues, and judging by Fang Hengʼs actions, he was extremely skilled—he had definitely practiced this.

Fang Heng put away the blueprints and proceeded down the passage, entering the trial cavern.

As he stepped into the cavern, the gameʼs prompt appeared on his retinal display.

[Hint: The player has entered the first level of the sealing trial. Trial reward: None.]

Lava Cave.

Fang Heng stopped at the entrance and turned his gaze towards the interior of the cavern.

The cavern wasnʼt large, with a circular lava pool in the center.

A fire demon, fully engulfed in flames, was submerged in the lava pool. Its body was firmly restrained by special metal bindings, trapping it inside.

A fire demon.

A creature drenched in flames.

So, this was the target to seal...

This was indeed interesting.

Fang Heng muttered to himself.

In the sealing art exam hall, the onlookers were watching Fang Heng standing before the lava-drenched fire demon, their curiosity piqued.

What method would Fang Heng use to seal the fire demon?

There werenʼt many stages in the sealing art exam, but the difficulty of each one was extremely high, testing the candidatesʼ abilities to the limit.

It wasnʼt just about proficiency in sealing art; the most important skill was the ability to come up with specific solutions for the challenges at hand.

As an entry-level challenge, the fire demon didnʼt pose a great threat, but it was impossible to get close. Once a candidate approached, the ordinary sealing rune paper would be burned up by the fire demonʼs special attributes.

Naturally, the rune paper would lose its effectiveness.

To deal with the fire demon, one would need to perform a remote sealing, or perhaps seal the outer lava pool first, then find ways to weaken the demon.

Alternatively, using fire-resistant rune paper could also work.

Of course, if the candidateʼs sealing art skills were strong enough, they could directly use a sealing technique to crush the demon.

Everyone was eager to see what method Fang Heng would use to overcome this challenge.

At his current peak level of high-tier sealing technique, Fang Heng should not have been able to directly seal the fire demon.

Huh?

What?!

The onlookers were momentarily stunned.

They saw Fang Heng stretch out his hand towards the fire demon.

”Whoosh!!!”

Huh?

The Book of Elements?!

The Book of Elements appeared in Fang Hengʼs palm.

”Freeze!”

With the infusion of mental strength, the master-level freeze spell, combined with Fang Hengʼs high mental strength boost, unleashed a chilling gust of cold wind!

The fire demon was immediately encased in a massive block of ice!

Whoosh!

The freezing effect wouldnʼt last long, so Fang Heng quickly acted. With a light push of his toes, he leaped forward and placed a rune paper onto the outer layer of the ice block surrounding the fire demon.

”Buzz...!”

A faint light streaked across.

[Hint: The player has completed the fire demon seal.]

[Hint: The player has completed the first stage of the trial.]

Fang Heng seemed to have accomplished something quite simple. After landing, he dusted off his pants and continued forward.

The hall fell into a brief moment of silence.

The examiners exchanged glances.

Was it elemental science...

And judging by Fang Hengʼs performance, his level in elemental science was not low.

Otherwise, he wouldnʼt have been able to freeze the fire demon and the surrounding lava completely.

This kid!

No one had ever passed the exam in such a manner before.

Yet, there was something a bit odd in everyoneʼs minds.

Wasnʼt this a sealing technique exam?

Why did it feel more like an elemental science demonstration?

”The assessment of sealing techniques isnʼt just about the strength of the seals; itʼs more about the ability to use the sealing technique effectively. What Fang Heng is demonstrating right now is his ability to combine sealing techniques with elemental science.”

Damon, who held Fang Heng in high regard, nodded and praised him, saying, ”Mo Jianghe, your disciple is impressive.”

Mo Jianghe, pleased by the praise, grinned inwardly, thinking, ”This is just the beginning.” But he still humbly responded, ”Haha, not at all. Itʼs just some clever tricks. Donʼt praise him too much when he comes out. Iʼm afraid heʼll get distracted and start studying other disciplines...”

After sealing the fire demon, Fang Heng continued down the passage behind the cavern, entering the second trial.

[Hint: The player has entered the second stage of the trial. Current reward: None.]

Fang Heng stepped into the second trial cavern, his heart skipping a beat.

What was this?

It was...

A cavern filled with an aura of death.

Fang Heng looked up, his pupils darkening with a faint glow.

Three vengeful spirits were drifting through the cavern.

”So itʼs vengeful spirits...”

Fang Heng immediately understood.

This trial was about sealing spiritual creatures.

This was a bit too easy, wasnʼt it?

He had walked right into the muzzle.

With the God of the Underworld bloodline enhancement, even without the added boost of various eye techniques, he could easily sense the presence of vengeful spirit creatures.

Fang Heng shook his head and raised his hand.

The Book of the Dead materialized before him.

Whoosh Whoosh!

Several soul chains shot out from the Book of the Dead, quickly piercing through the vengeful spirits and binding them tightly in place!

The three vengeful spirits didnʼt even have time to scream before being dragged toward Fang Heng by the soul chains.

Fang Heng pulled out three sealing rune papers from his backpack.

”Smack! Smack! Smack!”

The rune papers were slapped onto the foreheads of the three vengeful spirits.

A dark glow flashed.

[Hint: The player has completed the sealing of vengeful spirit*3.]

[Hint: The player has completed the current stage of the trial.]
