Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 2885: Cleaning UpEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Half an hour later.

In the shipyard area.

The transport drones were still coming and going continuously, shuttling between the catacombs outside the ship and the ship’s warehouse, pushing boxes of energy crystals into the warehouse storage area.

The soldier in charge of the storage came to Collete’s side and reported, ”Captain, the rear hold’s crystal ore storage area is already full.”

Collete had just dealt with a few officers looking for Fang Heng. Hearing that the supplies were already full, he felt a headache coming on. He rubbed his throbbing temples and said, ”I understand. Pile them up in temporary warehouse No. 7 for now.”

”Captain.”

”Yes?”

”Temporary warehouse No. 7 is already full.”

Collete was surprised and said, ”Already full?”

”Yes, warehouses No. 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, and 13 are all full.”

”What? Already? All of them?” Collete, hearing this, instinctively looked toward the ship’s deck outside and furrowed his brows.

Good heavens, were there that many ores?

”We’ve got enough energy ore for now. Let’s pause for a moment,” the soldier said, standing still with a helpless expression.

The spawn transport robots weren’t under their control and couldn’t be stopped. They could only watch as the energy crystals continued to board the ship.

Collete saw the soldier standing there at a loss and quickly realized this. He waved his hand and said, ”Forget it, do this instead. Pile the extra ore boxes outside the ship. We’ll wait for the captain to return before deciding what to do.”

”Yes!”

In Area C’s insect nest battlefield.

Fang Heng had no idea that he had made a miscalculation.

Although the zombie clones mined the ores quickly, the Federation ships consumed energy crystals at a limited rate.

This was different from when they were farming spirit gemstones before.

On the spawn side, they took as many spirit gemstones as they could get.

But the Federation side, with so many energy crystals, quickly reached a point where they couldn’t consume them all.

At this point, the Licker swarm had successfully entered the depths of the insect nest and was dealing with the C-tier insect nest mother spider.

”So it’s two of them.”

Jayne murmured as he looked ahead at the two C-tier insect nest mother spiders, only about ten meters apart.

No wonder the mission difficulty was so high; they had really drawn the jackpot.

A large number of mutated elite-level mutant worms, along with regular mutant worms, formed defensive lines around the insect nest mother spiders.

The Lickers had used their stealth skill to approach from the ground, launching an attack from beneath the surface. They directly engaged in melee combat with their powerful flesh and blood, thoroughly disrupting the formation.

The battlefield resembled a giant meat grinder.

Even Jayne didn’t dare to let the mechanical spawn battle units he had hired at great cost join the battlefield.

It was too bloody.

At that moment, Jayne suddenly realized that Boyd’s earlier words had no exaggeration.

Fang Heng was incredibly strong!

The Licker swarm had used their tough flesh to block the insect swarm’s ranged attacks.

Jayne even felt that, without their help, Fang Heng could slowly grind down the entire C-tier insect nest by himself.

”Go!”

Two Federation teams launched a full suppression of firepower. With continuous blasts from beam weapons, chunks of foul-smelling flesh and blood fell from the insect nest mother spiders.

It wasn’t until the two insect nest mother spiders’ health was completely depleted.

The blood and flesh on the mother spiders, entangled on the crimson crystals, rapidly fell off, and the nearby creep shriveled away, revealing cracked earth below.

[Hint: The player killed 2 C-tier insect nest mother spiders (mutated leaders). The player gained 2,000 contribution points*2 and 2,000 honor points*2.]

[Hint: The player successfully cleared 2 C-tier insect nests. The player gained 10,000 contribution points*2 and 10,000 honor points*2.]

[Hint: The player’s honor level has risen to: Recruit (S) (Sequence Level 1).]

It was quite a good reward.

Fang Heng glanced at the game prompt and nodded to himself.

Including the extra 50,000 contribution points promised by Jayne, the efficiency was just slightly slower than large-scale mining.

It was still within an acceptable range.

But his honor level had risen so slowly, hadn’t it?

Up to now, he was still just a recruit?

He had only reached the S-level in the recruit tier?

Seeing that the battle was coming to an end, Jayne walked over to Fang Heng.

”Fang Heng, I won’t say too much thanks, but I heard you’re interested in crimson gemstones. We’ll leave the gemstones to you, though I can’t guarantee what new orders the captain might have later.”

”Okay.”

Fang Heng thought to himself that there was no need to worry. The crimson gemstones would soon be completely dismantled by the zombie clones.

”Mission completed smoothly. We’ll choose to return soon. What about you? Will you be coming back with us?”

”Yeah, I’ll come back with you.”

Fang Heng also planned to return to the ship to check on the ore collection situation. Just as he was about to catch a ride, Lieutenant Charles walked over.

With the insect nest mother spider destroyed, the Federation’s satellite communication system had been restored, and Charles successfully contacted the ship’s communication.

Charles handed Fang Heng the communicator and said, ”Fang Heng, Lieutenant Collete urgently wants to contact you. He wants to have a conversation.”

Collete?

Oh, right, he was the officer in charge of the warehouse.

Fang Heng connected the name with the person and took the communicator.

”Hello? Is this Fang Heng?”

”It is.”

”This is Collete. There’s something I need to discuss with you about your ore.”

After listening to Collete’s explanation, Fang Heng fell into silence for a long time.

So...

He had miscalculated!

The Federation didn’t need that many energy crystals at all!

”Hello? Fang Heng, are you still there?”

”Yeah, I’m here.” Fang Heng paused and still asked, somewhat unwilling, ”Do you need any other special ores?”

Collete seemed somewhat stunned by Fang Heng’s question.

”Uh... No, we haven’t found any mining areas for spirit ore in this world, and the Federation doesn’t currently need any other ores.”

Crap!

He had planned to farm ores to grind contribution points.

”I understand, thank you.”

Fang Heng scratched his head and handed the communicator back.

Jayne saw the strange look on Fang Heng’s face and couldn’t help but ask, ”What’s wrong, Fang Heng? Did you run into some trouble?”

”No, nothing.”

Fang Heng quickly adjusted his mood and said, ”Ran into a little issue, but it’s not a big deal. I won’t return to the ship with you guys.”

”Alright.”

Jayne looked up and nodded as she saw the transport ship approaching. ”Fang Heng, thanks again for your help. If you need anything, feel free to come find me anytime.”

”Of course.”

Fang Heng watched as Jayne and Charles led their team of Federation soldiers away, then stroked his chin.

Alright.

It seemed that he would have to change his strategy for grinding contribution points.

Since he couldn’t farm ores, he would have to tackle the insect nests head-on.

Compared to mining, farming insect nests was slower and riskier, but there were benefits.

For example, he could earn contribution points while also increasing his honor level with the spawns, unlocking more personal exchange items.
