Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 3275: TrackingEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

”Besides that, we also received some rumors that the spawns might have also captured the Seed of Ouroboros Beetle King and seemed to be conducting some research related to Ouroboros.”

Wu Yi slightly bowed, lowering her posture as much as possible to appear sincere.

”We hope that Mr. Fang Heng will take action. Neither the God’s remains nor the Seed of Ouroboros are suitable to remain in the hands of the spawns.”

The elders behind Wu Yi also bowed, their expressions solemn.

Fang Heng frowned.

So his guess was most likely correct—the Beetle King had indeed not died.

Or perhaps the spawns had been extremely lucky, stumbling upon a half-dead Beetle King while searching for the remains of the God Clan?

Fang Heng once again calculated silently.

There was not much usable left of the God Clan’s remains, and its value was not great. To him, it was rather tasteless.

But the cocoon left behind after the Seed of Ouroboros Beetle King’s death—he absolutely had to obtain it!

Fang Heng raised his head and asked, ”What does your Evil Clan want from this?”

”We previously obtained data related to the ’Helium’ research. If possible, we want to take a step further and acquire God’s body, to cooperate with you in developing the God Clan’s remains and continue the ’Helium’ research.”

Wu Yi replied without hesitation, ”We can even provide any necessary assistance, as long as you are willing to take action.”

Fang Heng’s lips curved slightly.

”Alright.”

Wu Yi and the others exchanged glances, then continued, ”We are currently tracking the movements of the spawns, trying to map out an area from their traces. We believe there will be news soon, and at that time, we will immediately contact you.”

”There’s no need for that trouble.”

Fang Heng released his perception, slowly lifted his head, and looked into the distance, as if his gaze could pierce through layers of obstruction and reach a certain place in the distant galaxy.

Blood imprint!

”I already know where it is.”

Wu Yi and the Evil Clan members all changed expressions at those words.

Something even the God Clan could not achieve, Fang Heng could?

...

Starship.

After jumping continuously for 15 hours, the ship maintained its hidden state as it entered orbit around a planet.

”This place is very far from the spawn headquarters regions, and already well beyond the control range of their star domain.”

In the main control room, the Evil Clan captain looked through the glass at the brown planet in the distance and said, ”The location of the God’s remains isn’t at the spawns’ headquarters. It still feels strange.”

Beside him, a crew member retrieved information about the target planet and said, ”Planet CU-29 belongs to the Mechanical Clan’s star domain. Since the Mechanical Clan has very loose management over non-resource areas in their star domain, most territories are left unmanaged. For many years, the barren resource zone near CU-29, including the planet itself, has been a no-man’s land.”

The captain turned his head toward Fang Heng to confirm, ”You’re certain the perception isn’t mistaken?”

Fang Heng shook his head lightly.

”There’s no mistake.”

The blood imprint sensing was very clear.

In addition, he could faintly perceive the aura of the Seed of Ouroboros coming from the planet.

Wu Yi nodded and analyzed, ”The God Clan would never allow the remains of their kin to be lost, much less desecrated by outsiders. I suspect the spawns did this to prevent the God Clan from discovering them. They might even be preparing for the worst-case scenario—if the God Clan discovered the remains’ location, the spawns could claim detachment and wash their hands of it.”

”Yes, that is indeed very likely.”

The captain nodded gently after hearing both confirm. ”We have already completed preliminary scans of the planet’s surface. Only traces of low-level life forms were found. The ship has now entered hidden mode, and we will conduct high-altitude patrols in concealment, ready to extract you at any time. If anomalies are detected, we will send you a signal ripple.”

At the back of the ship, several Evil Clan members gathered around the teleportation magic array, already prepared.

”Teleportation is ready. We can set off at any time.”

Wu Yi looked at Fang Heng and asked, ”Shall we go down and take a look?”

”I’ll go down alone first to check the situation,” Fang Heng said as he walked toward the teleportation array, standing in its center. ”You wait a bit longer. Right now, it’s not suitable for the Evil Clan to appear.”

Light flashed, and Fang Heng quickly disappeared from the center of the magic array.

...

The ground was covered by towering mushroom canopies.

A dark magic array flickered.

Fang Heng gradually condensed his figure from the array, scanning his surroundings quickly.

Huge fungal bodies grew from the ground, their canopies spreading high above, blocking out the sky like a forest.

The ground was also covered densely with tiny fungi, forming an almost solid layer. Each step produced a dry cracking sound.

Back on the starship, Fang Heng had already noted that most of this planet’s surface was densely covered with fungi.

Fang Heng tried releasing his perception.

Strange.

Even with his Super-God-level blood perception, he could not sense enemies.

Fortunately, the blood imprint sensing still worked.

In that case...

He would find the God Clan’s remains first!

”Whoosh!”

Fang Heng tapped the ground lightly with his toes, his figure transforming into a shadow as he sped into the fungal forest.

”Pa, crackle pa pa...”

Large swathes of fungi beneath his feet shattered with crisp sounds as he stepped across them.

Moments later, Fang Heng stopped, his gaze fixed on what appeared to be an ordinary area covered with fungal canopies.

”It’s right around here.”

Fang Heng observed the surroundings again, then quickly condensed an imprint in front of him with both hands and shouted, ”Explode!”

”Boom! Boom boom!!”

The ground ahead erupted with a series of muffled explosions, the fungus-covered land surging violently.

”Boom!!!”

In an instant, the surface layer let out a deafening roar as the ground collapsed, revealing a pitch-black entrance below.

Fang Heng stepped forward and frowned, peering into the depths of the hole.

The cavern was bottomless, with walls covered in squirming fungal threads, from which a faint fragrance drifted.

”It seems to be deeper in the cavern...”

What tricks were the spawns up to now?

With his current strength, as long as it was not a direct battle against the God Clan, he put no other opponent in his eyes.

No time to waste!

Fang Heng leapt straight into the hole.

”Whoosh!!”

Maintaining his balance, he plummeted swiftly through the dark cavern passage.

Several minutes later, Fang Heng landed at the bottom of the cavern.

A massive catacomb.

The walls were covered in glowing fungi, allowing him to see the surroundings clearly.

Fang Heng scanned the area.

”Chi, chi chi chi...”

The fungi around him began to emit strange sounds.

Buzz buzz buzz...

A deep vibrating hum came from all directions. The fungi that had been attached to the cave walls rapidly detached and gathered on the ground, forming writhing, wormlike fungal creatures.

If one had to describe them, they resembled large brown maggots, like oversized mole cricket larvae.
