Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 2789  Borrowing

Whoosh!!!

The magic array reflected in Fang Hengʼs right pupil spun rapidly!

Stella and several High Priestesses controlling the magic arrayʼs power changed their expressions slightly.

The faith stars within the entire Starry Temple slowly lost control as the magic array spun!

”Fang Bai! Stop! Do you know what youʼre doing?”

Stella injected all her mental strength, trying with all her might to stabilize the magic array.

But it was impossible!

A layer of cold sweat formed on Stellaʼs forehead.

What exactly was he trying to do?

Inside the Starry Temple, golden orbs of light condensed into faith light spots, quickly gathering toward Fang Heng.

Fang Heng raised the God-given Scepter high in his hand.

”Stella, my apologies. The situation is urgent. After itʼs over, I will give you an explanation.”

Stella gritted her teeth, saying nothing as she exerted all her energy to control the magic array.

However, with just their strength, they couldnʼt stop the faith energy from slowly floating toward Fang Heng.

”Stop him! Donʼt let him take the power of faith!”

Priests in the Great Hall gathered around Fang Heng.

”Hmph!”

Hain let out a cold hum, and his team immediately spread out around Fang Heng to guard him, while another group firmly held the entrance to the Temple of Faith.

”Stella, openly defying the Great Sageʼs orders, and now youʼre dragging everyone else along with you. Do you intend to make a move on the Great Sage? Anyone who dares to take another step forward, I will pursue this matter to the end.”

The priestsʼ expressions changed slightly.

He was right.

No matter what, Fang Bai was still the Great Sage, their bossʼs boss.

If they made a move now, what would they do when it came time for reckoning?

Moreover, they didnʼt even know what was going on, how could their boss and the bossʼs boss suddenly be at odds?

It was all unclear.

The priests in the temple hesitated, not daring to strike, but unable to retreat, and thus stood awkwardly at a standstill.

As for the Holy Paladin guards outside the templeʼs square, they had no idea what was happening inside and continued to guard the entrance to prevent external intrusion.

Stella stared firmly at Fang Heng, sweat continuously sliding down both sides of her face.

Fang Baiʼs mental strength was terrifying, and he was extremely familiar with the alchemy magic arrayʼs workings. He didnʼt seem like a newly appointed Great Sage at all.

Even with the combined strength of all five of them, they couldnʼt control the flow of the faith universe!

The faith orbs in the Starry Temple slowly gathered toward Fang Hengʼs hand.

Whoosh!

The first faith orb drew closer to Fang Heng, and as it made contact with the God-given Scepter, it was immediately absorbed by the scepter.

[Hint: The player uses God-given Scepter skill to absorb faith; current faith storage: 1,000,000.]

Fang Hengʼs mind stirred.

Good grief!

The Holy Courtʼs reserves were much more abundant than he had imagined!

Just one faith orb contained 1 million units of faith energy.

At this moment, the faith stars in the Starry Temple were glowing brightly, and there were at least several hundred thousand faith orbs in total.

Absorb!

Fang Heng once again activated his mental strength.

Absorb at full force!

The amount of faith energy a player could store was linked to their mental strength and their sacred study talent.

Fang Hengʼs mental strength was already impressive, and his sacred study talent was terrifying.

Almost all of it had been maxed out.

Additionally, the God-given Scepter could store 100 times more faith energy than normal.

Instantly, the faith orbs in the Starry Temple flew toward Fang Hengʼs scepter.

The game hints were flashing frantically on his retina.

[Hint: The player uses God-given Scepter skill to absorb faith; the player gains 1,000,000 faith.]

[Hint: The player uses God-given Scepter skill to absorb faith...]

[Hint: The player uses God-given Scepter skill to absorb faith; the God-given Scepterʼs faith storage has reached its maximum.]

In just a short moment, the God-given Scepter was filled with faith energy.

[Hint: The player can continue charging; any extra energy gained will continue to increase.]

[Hint: In an overload state, the player can temporarily store extra faith; the overload faith will gradually dissipate according to a set ratio.]

[Hint: In an overload state, the player will suffer from continuous HP loss.]

Eh? Overload?

Could it continue?

Fang Hengʼs eyelids twitched slightly.

Fine! Letʼs keep going!

[Hint: The player uses God-given Scepter skill to absorb faith; the player gains 1,000,000 faith.]

[Hint: The player takes 21,000 damage...]

[Hint: The player uses God-given Scepter skill to absorb faith...]

Stella and the four priests were even more shocked at the sight.

They watched in astonishment as countless faith orbs kept flying towards Fang Heng, absorbed by the God-given Scepter in his hand.

At first, they thought Fang Heng would only absorb a small portion of the faith, but it quickly became clear that the amount of faith energy he needed far exceeded their expectations!

Fang Bai showed no sign of stopping.

So much faith energy?

What was Fang Bai planning to do?

Was he not afraid of exploding from it?

In just under a minute, two-thirds of the faith energy within the Starry Temple had been absorbed!

This was the accumulated faith energy of the entire Holy Realm for thousands of years!

”Phew!”

Fang Heng slowly lowered his hand, took a deep breath, and swept his gaze around the temple.

At this point, a faint halo of faith energy surrounded him, spilling out from the excess faith energy that had been absorbed.

Fang Heng could clearly feel that the excess faith power, far beyond the limit, was slowly dissipating with time, and his control over it had significantly weakened.

As for the negative effect, his HP was continuously dropping, suffering 200,000 damage per second.

With the ʼundying effectʼ, this damage was insufficient to kill him!

Time to focus on the main task!

”Hain, letʼs go.”

Fang Heng gritted his teeth and endured the discomfort, turning around and leaving the Starry Temple, retracing his steps.

”Yes!”

Hain responded, raising his hand, and led the Godʼs Punishment Knight Legion as they followed Fang Heng out.

The Starry Temple fell silent for a moment.

Stella and her fellow high priests looked as though they had been through a great battle, their backs drenched in sweat.

Even with all five of their combined strength, they couldnʼt stop Fang Heng.

The remaining faith power in the Starry Temple was now negligible.

Stella gritted her teeth, holding herself up, and gave her orders, ”Send someone to follow Fang Bai and track his movements, and immediately call for help from the three Great Sages of the Temples of the Gods.”

”Understood!”

...

Meanwhile, in the Temples of the Gods.

”Report!”

The Holy Court guards rushed in, delivering the report: ”Army Commander Hain urgently reports that the newly appointed Great Sage Fang Bai entered the Central God Pillar not long ago.”

The Great Sage Aladdin slowly opened his eyes, pausing the flow of energy into the holy barrier, and asked, ”Did they bring him?”

”No, Great Sage Fang Bai discovered some clues related to the demonic invasion and, under the leadership of Commander Hain, headed towards the Creation Temple.”

Hm?

At the mention of the Creation Temple, the others in the room exchanged puzzled looks.

What did this mean?

In this critical situation, why wasnʼt Fang Heng coming straight to them? Why was he heading to the Creation Temple instead?
