Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 2889: The BarrierEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Boyd raised his hand to signal his subordinate team to form a defensive formation and asked, ”So Fang Heng took on the construction mission by himself?”

Collete nodded.

”D*mn, that’s impressive.”

Boyd admitted that Fang Heng was strong, but he also acknowledged that claiming Fang Heng could solo a B-level insect nest was an exaggeration.

The only one capable of actually doing that would probably be that even more terrifying woman.

Thinking of Charlene, Boyd couldn’t help but shrink his neck.

”Anyway, until we hear back from our superiors, let’s try to protect the prism construction equipment as best as we can.”

”Just the two of us?”

”Three more teams are in the petri dish undergoing body repairs. Once they’re finished, they’ll come to assist.”

”Alright,” Jayne shrugged and said, ”Whether it’s three teams or not, it doesn’t make much of a difference.”

Collete gave a wry smile.

Indeed, dealing with a mission of this level, whether with two teams or five, they would all be sent to their doom.

As they were talking, subtle cracks suddenly appeared on the ground not far away.

The Federation soldiers immediately became alert, raising their guns to aim at the ground.

”Ka, ka, ka, ka, ka...”

The ground rapidly expanded, quickly revealing a pitch-black pit.

”Whoosh!”

Fang Heng leapt out from the pit, looked up at Jayne, Boyd, and the Federation soldiers, then waved his hand in greeting.

”Such a coincidence? Did Collete call all of you here?”

Fang Heng thought to himself that the Federation had arrived pretty quickly.

He was the one who was late.

After all, digging a large underground passage had wasted quite a bit of time with the Licker group.

But it wasn’t a big deal.

After all, the digging was a one-time task.

Jayne saw Fang Heng and waved at him with a smile, ”You guessed it right. By the way, the contribution points should have been credited to your account, right? If not, I can help you follow up.”

”Yeah, it’s all there. You really do things fast, brother!”

Fang Heng thought that Jayne was quite to his liking.

On the one hand, Jayne wasn’t as rigid as other officers and was very enthusiastic, never getting hung up on small details.

But mainly, he paid up quickly and wasn’t like other parties that created a lot of hassle.

”Haha, glad to hear it. By the way, do you have such confidence in this mission? Collete’s worried, you know. Don’t look at us, we don’t have much combat strength, we’re just here to help out. If you need anything, feel free to ask. I’ll make sure to support you with everything I have.”

”Don’t mention it.”

Fang Heng glanced at Collete behind the group and said softly, ”Don’t worry, I have everything arranged. It’ll be fine.”

As the two were chatting, Collete walked toward them.

”Fang Heng, sorry, I’m still a little worried, so I came personally to check things out.”

Collete reminded him again, ”Fang Heng, be careful. If things go south, prioritize your safety. If possible, please try to protect the prism construction components as best as you can.”

”Of course, no problem.”

Fang Heng surveyed the surroundings and confirmed to Collete, ”The prism construction site is here, right?”

”Yes, anywhere within a 2-kilometer radius from here is fine for building the prism defense crystal tower. But I need to especially remind you that besides this small area, there are a large number of insect nests nearby. The insect swarms often spread out and interfere with the construction of the prism crystal towers.”

Collete had heard about Fang Heng’s strength, but he wasn’t entirely sure of the specifics. He warned seriously, ”Be extra careful. Once the defensive facility reaches Tier 2, the energy waves emitted by the crystal towers will provoke the surrounding insect swarms, and they will actively leave their nests and attack us.”

”Is that so...”

Fang Heng looked around and then opened the surveying device to check the environment again.

Just as Collete had said, the position chosen by the Federation wasn’t ideal.

There was a large cluster of scattered D-level and C-level insect nests nearby, and to the right, there was an even more densely packed insect nest gathering point, Area A.

There were also two B-level insect nests relatively close by.

”To make it easier to build the prism tower here, we did several clearing missions for the nearby insect nests some time ago.”

Jayne also added, ”Unfortunately, most of the Federation’s forces have been deployed to the main battlefield, and each team’s strength is limited, so progress has been slow. There are still a lot of insect nests remaining nearby.”

Fang Heng looked at the information on the surveying device and thought to himself that the remaining insect nests they hadn’t cleared were more than just a few.

”There are also two more teams on their way to reinforce. Once we establish the temporary base and ensure its safety, another team of construction engineers will arrive to help with the prism construction...”

Fang Heng glanced at Collete.

He thought to himself that Collete was quite the good guy.

Even though he was constantly trying to talk him out of it, warning him and advising him at every turn, he still made sure to offer all the help he could.

”Nighttime is when the insect nests become most active, so let’s build the base quickly and finish setting up the temporary base before dark...”

”Build a temporary base?” Fang Heng looked at Collete and said, ”I don’t remember the mission requiring the construction of a base.”

”Huh?”

Collete was taken aback by Fang Heng’s words and was momentarily at a loss for words.

The mission requirements didn’t mention it?

Well, isn’t that common sense?

How could they build the defense prism tower without a temporary base? Where would they store the materials? How would they resist the insect swarms attacking midway?

”Forget it, no trouble. Jayne, could you please help with building the temporary base? I’ll focus on setting up the prism defense tower and finish the defensive line setup as quickly as possible.”

Jayne didn’t quite understand Fang Heng’s plan, but he gave him a thumbs-up, ”No problem, it’s a small thing, leave it to me.”

”Thanks.”

Fang Heng nodded, and under the watchful eyes of the Federation soldiers, he walked to the empty area ahead, quickly bringing his hands together in front of him.

Whoosh!

A book glowing with seven-colored light, the Book of Elements, appeared in front of Fang Heng.

Huh?

Upon seeing this, the Federation soldiers’ hearts stirred, and they all turned their attention to Fang Heng.

The Book of Elements!

Previously, they had only seen Fang Heng summon creatures to fight and thought he was a top-tier summoner.

Why was he suddenly summoning the Book of Elements?

Was he an elemental science player?

”Earth wall barrier!”

Fang Heng shouted, instantly channeling his psychic force into the Book of Elements in front of him.

”Bang! Bang! Bang!!!”

In the next moment, heavy barriers began to rise from the ground around them!

The thick barriers gathered, forming a dense shield around a large area in front of them.

The barriers slowly converged into a point in the air.

In just half a minute, the thick earth barriers connected, forming a sealed, semicircular structure with a radius of fifty meters and a height of over ten meters.
