Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game - Chapter 1854
1854 Doubts
“I forcefully used the strength that Xia Xi left for me, and I suffered a huge backlash. I need some time to recover. I will think of a way to bring you out of here. It was me who caused the trouble, so I will try my best to escort you out of here.”
“Where are the shackles? Do you have a way to undo the shackles? After being shackled, I still can’t enter the game.”
“Yes, the shackle imprint and the tracking imprint were left behind by the Federation to target the demi-human tribe. As far as I know, there are two ways to remove the imprint. The first is time. The tracking imprint will gradually fade after seven days and completely disappear after 28 days.”
“The second way to eliminate it is through a ritual. The ritual is very complicated, and it can’t be carried out in our current situation. We can only wait. After seven days, I have a way to weaken the tracking imprint. At that time, we can avoid the Federation’s tracking for a short period and try to escape.”
“Alright, I understand. I’ll buy you some time and think of a way to delay the Federation outside.”
Fang Heng nodded and took out a bottle of quick recovery potion from his pocket.
“Do you need this?”

“It can help a little.”
Gu Qingzhu downed the bottle of medicine that was handed to her and sat cross-legged. She formed a hand seal in front of her and closed her eyes to rest.
Fang Heng pushed open the door to the lounge.
Fana had been waiting outside the door. When she saw that the two of them had finished their conversation, she nodded at him. Then, she looked at Gu Qingzhu, who was resting on the spot. She asked, “Fang Heng, is she trustworthy?”
“I feel that she might be hiding some things from me. However, she has no ill intentions towards me. We need to work together to deal with the Federation. We can trust her.”
“Okay, be careful. I’ll keep an eye on her.”
“Alright, I’ll go outside and take a look first.”
Fang Heng walked towards the hall again.
So…
Xia Xi had also been here.
From what Gu Qingzhu said, the time when Xia Xi took her to hold the ritual was about six years ago.
“Six years ago…”
Wait a minute…
Suddenly, Fang Heng thought of something and his pupils constricted.
He raised his head abruptly and looked at the headquarters of the Mundt Gang which had undergone a large-scale transformation.
The black fog was constantly seeping out from the cracks in the stone wall.
“Ritual…”
Fang Heng muttered to himself.
He and Xia Xi had both experienced the ritual.
The ritual they held was used to awaken the demonic seed. He remembered very clearly that the location of the ritual was not in the cave. Instead, it was in a place that looked like a bell tower.
There were a total of seven types of demonic seeds.
He and Xia Xi did not participate in the same ritual.
It was true that Gu Qingzhu might be a failure.
However, the venue where the ritual was held was very likely related to the demonic seed!
Then, he thought of the black fog!
No wonder!
No wonder he felt that the black fog was familiar when he first entered the City of Darkness.
Now that he thought about it carefully, this fog was slightly similar to the aura fluctuation he sensed when he was fighting the Tongues of Jealousy.
In addition to his ability to control the black fog just now, it was very likely related to the power of the demonic seed in his body.
Therefore, in the rift in the game world deep inside the entrance of the holy land in the headquarters of the Mundt Gang…
Combining all the signs, Fang Heng had a vague guess in his heart.
It was very likely that it was a world connected to the demonic seed!
Meng Ruhui had come here two years ago.
He was most likely related to the demonic seed!
Meng Ruhui was hiding something from Aktu, and it was very likely that he was protecting Aktu.
The more information he came into contact with the demonic seed, the more likely he would be contaminated by the demonic seed.
The more Fang Heng thought about it, the more he sensed that his guess was right.
He really wanted to go in and take a look, but unfortunately, the entrance to the holy land of the Mundt Gang had always been guarded by their people. The people of the Mundt Gang valued the holy land very much. It would be difficult to get them to let him in.
Perhaps…
It was time to talk to Meng Ruhui.
…
When Fang Heng returned to the headquarters of the Mundt Gang, Meng Ruhui had not returned yet. Aktu was still waiting anxiously.
The central ritual in the headquarters had been pushed to its limit. Thick black fog continued seeping out of the ritual magic array.
“Aktu, how’s the situation?”
“Not too good.”
Aktu stared at the outside world with a frown. He did not forget to pay attention to Fang Heng and asked, “How’s your friend? Is everything all right?”
“She’s awake for the time being. She still needs some time before she recovers.”
Fang Heng said as he gazed outside at the encampment of the Mundt Gang, which was shrouded in a thick black fog.
The pillar of light that had invaded the encampment had already retreated.
An intense battle erupted outside the encampment.
It seemed that Meng Ruhui had already executed out his plan and initiated a surprise attack on the temporary magic array area outside the Federation.
As for whether the ambush would succeed, it was hard to say.
Fang Heng’s gaze shifted to the holy land of the Mundt Gang behind him and said, “Aktu, I want to go inside the holy land and take a look.”
“To the holy land?” Aktu turned around and rejected him almost reflexively, “No way! Absolutely not!”
Fang Heng was silent for a moment before saying, “I have some guesses. We might be able to find a way to strengthen the black fog in the holy land.”
“This…”
Aktu hesitated for a moment. He knew that Fang Heng could improve magic arrays.
After some thought, Aktu shook his head and said, “Fang Heng, the holy land is an important place for the Mundt Gang. No one is allowed to enter, even if it’s an emergency now. Wait a little longer. We’ll discuss it when Big Brother comes back. I can’t let you in now.”
Fang Heng saw Aktu’s insistence and shook his head helplessly.
In the outside world, the light released by the Holy Light pillar flickered.
Clearly, the battle was still ongoing.
But soon, as time passed, the density of the black fog released by the ritual gradually decreased.
Aktu saw that the situation was not looking good and frowned, “Why is the efficiency of the ritual decreasing so quickly?”
a member of the Mundt Gang, who was assisting in the ritual, replied in a low voice, “Third Master, the magic array is running out of energy. The energy stored in the magic array is almost exhausted. The concentration of the black fog released by the ritual will continue to decrease. We can only hold on for three hours at most. By then, the energy will be completely exhausted.”
It would last for at most three hours…
Moreover, the density of the black fog would continue to decrease.
Aktu stared worriedly at the Holy Light pillar that bloomed outside the encampment.
“Aktu.”
Fang Heng gazed at Aktu again and said in a deep voice, “The situation outside isn’t looking good. Your Big Brother has led his men to launch a surprise attack on the Federation outside the encampment. This is undoubtedly a risky move. Once he succeeds, it will undoubtedly buy us a lot of time.”
“But if we fail, the energy we have left will no longer be enough to create enough black fog to resist Federation’s next attack. Our situation will only get worse.”
“Don’t say anymore.” Aktu was already feeling uneasy. He could not help but interrupt, “My brother will never fail!”
Fang Heng frowned.
Aktu was very obedient to Meng Ruhui.
It seemed like he could only wait.
He hoped that everything would go smoothly for Meng Ruhui and that he would return as soon as possible.
