Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 2634  Turtle Shell

In front of the cave, the seal barrier leading to the next trial disappeared once again.

There was still an assessment ahead!

Fang Hengʼs mind stirred.

He remembered that when he first entered the trial, Mo Jianghe had told him to pass as many assessments as possible, the more, the better.

Well then.

He decided to continue!

Perhaps there were even grandmaster-level, transcendent-level, demigod-level, or even God-level sealing art advancement books waiting ahead!

Since he had come this far, he might as well take everything at once!

With that thought, Fang Heng stepped into the passage once more.

[Hint: The player has entered the fourth trial.]

[Hint: Current reward: None.]

In the center of this cave, there was a pool of water.

Fang Heng looked around and focused his gaze on the calm surface of the lake.

”Buzz...”

Gradually, ripples began to appear on the surface of the lake.

A large creatureʼs shape materialized on the waterʼs surface.

Fang Hengʼs eyes revealed a hint of evaluation.

It turned out to be a Crystal Turtle.

In the trial hall, the others saw Fang Heng enter the fourth trial and nodded in acknowledgment.

Starting from the fourth trial, the assessment was aimed at participants who had reached the master level of sealing art.

As the entry-level trial for the master level, the Crystal Turtle had a tough, hard shell and considerable resistance to sealing, making it troublesome to deal with.

Many master-level sealing art scholars had been stuck at this stage.

For Fang Heng, he hadnʼt truly reached the master level of sealing art yet; he was still using high-tier sealing runes, which made the difficulty even greater.

What method would Fang Heng use to deal with the Crystal Turtle?

The examiners were somewhat curious.

In the hall, Fang Heng immediately took action and moved closer to the Crystal Turtle.

The Crystal Turtleʼs speed was not very fast, and it was quickly controlled by Fang Heng.

Next, he needed to seal it!

Fang Heng conjured a sealing rune paper in his hand and pressed it onto the back of the Crystal Turtle.

”Pa!!”

As soon as the rune paper made contact with the turtleʼs shell, it emitted a blue light, as if struck by electricity, and was instantly repelled.

The entire rune paper was completely destroyed.

[Hint: The playerʼs attempt to seal the creature failed.]

This was troublesome!

The outer turtle shell had anti-magic resistance, making it extremely difficult to seal using conventional methods.

Fang Heng tried more than ten times in succession, only to find that his high-tier sealing runes were completely ineffective.

In that case...

Fang Heng recalled the six methods Mo Jianghe had introduced to him for improving the success rate of sealing creatures.

Weaken the enemyʼs abilities!

Whoosh!

Fang Hengʼs pupils contracted, and a cold gleam flickered in his eyes. He suddenly threw a punch forward.

”Boom!!!”

A heavy, muffled sound of impact made the examiners in the assessment room tremble.

Good fellow!

There was such a method?!

They watched as Fang Heng swung his fist and slammed it heavily into the Crystal Turtleʼs shell.

With a single strike, fine cracks appeared on the hard turtle shell!

Wow!

Was he really breaking through with sheer force?

The examiners couldnʼt help but glance at Mo Jianghe again, thinking to themselves, ”Where did you find such a student?”

After this punch, they doubted there were many people here who could withstand such a blow.

Fang Heng was also a little surprised after his punch.

So tough!

Not only did the turtle shell have anti-magic properties, but its normal physical defense was also no joke!

The trial rules stated that the sealed creature could not be killed, only injured, so the goal was to damage the outer shell that blocked the sealing ability.

Fang Heng had just used five points of strength in his punch, yet he hadnʼt completely broken the shell?

In that case... letʼs try a few more times!

Fang Heng controlled the force of his punches and swung again.

”Bang! Bang! Bang!!”

After five consecutive punches, the turtle shellsʼ injuries accumulated, and with a loud bang, they instantly shattered!

Itʼs here!

Fang Heng quickly pulled out a rune paper from his right hand and pressed it onto the Crystal Turtle.

Whoosh!

A blue light flickered.

[Hint: The player has successfully completed the seal, and the player has passed the current trial assessment.]

In the examination hall, the examiners glanced at each other.

It was considered a pass, right?

Fang Heng hadnʼt violated any rules, and the Crystal Turtle was only injured.

It wasnʼt even on the brink of death—after a month, a new shell would grow back.

At most, it was considered severely wounded.

But...

No one had ever passed the trial in such a way before!

And also...

At first, the deputy examiners began to realize something, and their expressions turned strange.

What was even more troublesome was that, based on Fang Hengʼs abilities on display, they could already imagine that the subsequent trials could very well be cleared by him using the same approach!

Just thinking about it, they already had a vivid mental image.

On the other side, Mo Jianghe, watching Fang Hengʼs actions, couldnʼt help but smile at the sight of the sealing art instructorsʼ discomfited expressions.

Whatʼs more, Fang Hengʼs method of passing hadnʼt violated any rules.

Using strength to break through the trials? No one could pick out any faults with that!

As expected!

Mo Jianghe felt he had a keen eye!

Fang Heng truly was a genius!

Mo Jianghe wanted to burst out laughing, but considering the timing, he forcibly held it back.

The examiners, in turn, all glanced toward the president, Damon.

Damon, the president of the Sealing Art Association, nodded and said, ”Yes, the original purpose of the exam was to test sealing arts, and indeed, no one had ever thought someone would break through in this way. However, I personally believe that overcoming the challenges within the rules is a reflection of the examineeʼs capabilities. Letʼs continue watching.”

”President Damon is right,” Mo Jianghe responded with a smile.

The others, seeing that the president didnʼt mind Fang Hengʼs unconventional method, didnʼt continue to press the issue.

If the president didnʼt have a problem with it, what could they say?

Fang Heng then proceeded to the fifth trial cave.

[Hint: The player enters the fifth trial.]

[Hint: Current round reward: grandmaster-level sealing art advancement book.]

So fast?

Fang Heng felt a stir in his heart.

He had just received the master-level advancement book in the third trial, and now in the fifth trial, he was already getting the grandmaster-level one?

He became vigilant, scanning the cave ahead.

This trialʼs creature was...

Hmm?

He couldnʼt perceive it?

The entire cave felt unusually dim compared to the previous trials.

Fang Heng activated his retinas, overlaying a layer of red light, and began searching the cave.

Found it!

His attention was soon drawn to a creature in the corner of the cave.

It was another relatively rare creature.

Dark matter-source core.

It was a creature that was immune to and absorbed dark attribute energy, possessing some spatial abilities and able to move quickly through space.

Fang Heng immediately recognized it.

A creature with both dark and spatial attributes.

Its spatial flickering ability was somewhat similar to his secondary space projection, yet significantly different.

In comparison, the dark matter source coreʼs ability to penetrate walls wasnʼt as strong as his secondary space projection—it couldnʼt penetrate anything—but its teleportation speed was incredibly fast.

From its appearance, the dark matter source core resembled a super-small space passage.

It was shrouded in darkness, with a core floating at its center like a vertical pupil, making it almost impossible to spot in the dark cave.
