Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 2999: Dealing With ItEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Under the continuous scorching of the Holy Fire, the corrupted object—the Seed of Ouroboros—was completely burned into a pile of embers.

Fang Heng waved his hand, and a gray cocoon flew out from the embers.

”Chi...”

A rift appeared in the palm of his hand and quickly devoured the cocoon.

[Hint: The player killed the Seed of Ouroboros-Haye.]

[Hint: The player obtained the Seed of Ouroboros (high-tier) (damaged) (in the process of fusion).]

[Hint: The player could directly fuse the Seed of Ouroboros to gain skill experience points, or consume it directly to obtain a special modifiable ability-Attribute Absorption.]

[Skill-Attribute Absorption.]

Skill description: During attacks, could absorb the enemy’s attributes for personal use. Each attack that dealt damage could absorb a small amount of the enemy’s attribute values (absorbed attributes could be stored for 8 hours) (the absorbed attributes could stack, up to a maximum of 30% of the user’s highest attribute).

Special description: This skill requires the use of 2 available modification slots.

Fang Heng quickly read through the description of the newly acquired cocoon and began pondering silently.

It was another cocoon in the process of fusion. He could choose to obtain the skill as a modifiable option or directly convert it into skill experience points.

Attribute Absorption seemed to be a very good ability, and it should correspond to the Seed of Ouroboros he had just encountered.

At first glance, the amount of attributes absorbed per attack wasn’t high, and single-unit absorption had an upper limit.

But upon further thought, he had plenty of zombie clones!

In an ideal scenario, during large-scale group battles, over time, the zombie horde could gain an overall attribute boost of up to 30% thanks to Attribute Absorption.

And when ganging up on single boss-type or leader-type creatures, the effect would be even more significant!

He only needed a swarm of Licker-formed zombies to charge in and bite wildly, and the boss creature’s attributes would begin to deteriorate. Ideally, the enemy’s attributes could be completely drained!

Especially when paired with the zombie horde’s division effect.

However, the cost of 2 optional modification slots was indeed steep.

This made his available options quite limited.

Fang Heng calculated silently and chose to retain the skill.

”Greetings, Great Sage.”

Archbishop Whiteman and a group of Holy Court believers came forward to pay their respects.

If there had been any doubts before, witnessing the Great Sage’s divine move—God’s Punishment—completely dispelled them.

Whiteman marveled at Fang Heng’s youth.

He had heard recently that the Holy Realm’s Great Sage Fang Bai had arrived in their world, but he had never expected to encounter him at such a moment.

Even more surprising was that the Great Sage’s abilities far exceeded their expectations.

He had managed to eliminate the terrifying Disaster creature single-handedly.

Recently, the Holy Court’s influence and control in the real world had been significantly weakened, and tensions with the Western District Federation had grown serious. The arrival of the newly appointed Great Sage Fang Bai brought tremendous confidence back to the Holy Court in the real world.

”Rise.”

Fang Heng swept his gaze across the Holy Court believers before finally resting it on Whiteman. He nodded and said, ”Tell me what happened. How did you all come here?”

”Yes, Great Sage.”

Whiteman stood up and began explaining from the start, ”The Holy Court has always worked closely with the Central Federation. Not long ago, news of the Key of Heaven Enlightenment spread. The Holy Court was invited by the Central Federation to assist in the exploration of the Land of Enlightenment...”

After listening, Fang Heng felt puzzled and asked, ”Where did the Federation get the location of the Enlightenment treasure?”

”We’re not sure. The Federation didn’t disclose that.”

”And the people from the Central Federation? They just left you here?”

”After the Disaster seal was destroyed, the Key of Heaven Enlightenment emitted an abnormal ripple. We chose to stay behind to temporarily suppress the Disaster’s power to buy time. The Central Federation had already gone ahead to the indicated zone.”

Fang Heng, hearing this, pulled out the Key of Heaven Enlightenment from his backpack.

Buzz...

Just as Whiteman had said, the Key of Heaven Enlightenment emitted a faint glow and began to levitate, its tip pointing toward the maze passage behind the group.

”Let’s go have a look.”

”Yes, Great Sage!”

...

Ice Crystal Maze.

It wasn’t only the Central Federation’s Roa’s team; nearly every player team’s Key of Heaven Enlightenment had activated, guiding players into a certain location within the Ice Crystal Maze.

Most player teams were advancing in the direction indicated by the key.

Archbishop Whiteman and his party followed Fang Heng forward, increasingly astonished at Fang Heng’s strength.

Fang Heng jogged steadily at the front of the team. Wherever he passed, the ice crystal golems hadn’t even fully condensed before being completely shattered.

The others had no choice but to pick up the pace to catch up.

Eventually, they followed the guidance of the Key of Heaven Enlightenment into a new Ice Crystal Trial Hall.

From ahead came the sounds of intense combat.

Fang Heng signaled the Holy Court followers behind him to slow down as they entered the trial hall and observed from a distance.

What a coincidence?

It was the Eastern Federation people?

Fifty-plus players from the Eastern Federation, led by Chen Yu, were trapped near the center of the trial hall.

”Shoo! Shoo shoo!!!”

White orb-like creatures, fast as lightning, emerged repeatedly from active spatial light spots, launching themselves at the players.

Though Chen Yu’s team was strong, they were at a disadvantage against the elusive orb monsters. They were mostly on the defensive and had very limited means of counterattack.

Fang Heng narrowed his eyes and examined the orb creatures.

So it was a spatial ability.

The orb creatures could rapidly enter and exit from secondary space projections, maintaining high-speed movement while attacking the Eastern Federation players, making them hard to guard against.

It appeared to be another trial zone.

But this one corresponded to spatial power.

Even such rare forces as spatial science appeared here.

Fang Heng pondered to himself, his gaze falling upon the ice crystal pillar at the center of the hall.

”Great Sage, look over there.”

Whiteman pointed not far away.

A group of players who had entered from the right passage of the Ice Crystal Trial tried to bypass the monsters, already engaged with Chen Yu’s Western District Federation team, by sticking close to the wall and slowly making their way forward, evading the orb creatures and exiting the hall.

Fang Heng looked down at the key hanging on his chest.

The Key of Heaven Enlightenment was pointing forward.

So that group of players had chosen to go around.

”Great Sage, shall we...”

While the Holy Court observed the Eastern Federation team, the latter also noticed their presence.

Eastern Federation team leader Yi Qingzhi felt a rising sense of dread.

The Holy Court had always been at odds with the Eastern Federation.

Mainly due to matters of faith.

The Eastern Federation had little tolerance for any organized religion and had repeatedly rejected the Holy Court’s efforts to spread its faith.

Yi Qingzhi didn’t expect the Holy Court to offer help. He only hoped they wouldn’t make things worse.

But the Holy Court simply stood there watching and didn’t leave.

Already struggling against spatial-type creatures, the Eastern Federation players now also had the added psychological pressure of the Holy Court watching nearby.
