Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

“I'll leave the teleportation channel open; you can dig it yourselves.”

“Alright, thank you, Boss Fang. Our company has enjoyed a pleasant collaboration with you for so long, and we’ll definitely offer you a satisfactory price.”

Lu Yanlong quickly adjusted his mindset and nodded his thanks.

That’s what he said.

However, the original excavation plan of the Sea Star Company was now missing Fang Heng, this strong support, and their profit-making efficiency immediately plummeted.

They could still earn.

But obviously, they wouldn’t earn as much as expected.

“You’re welcome.”

Fang Heng didn't think much about it, agreed, opened his game character attribute bar, and chose to level up immediately.

A faint white light immediately enveloped him.

A game notification popped up.

【Hint: Player’s current level has been increased to LV: 40. Due to the player’s talent skill, the player has additionally obtained 2258 zombie clones】.

【Hint: Player’s current number of zombie clones: 13548】.

【Hint: Player needs to reach level 41: One first-order prismatic crystal * 3】.

【Hint: Player’s current level has been increased to level 40. The player’s special mission - Guluo’s special assessment has been completed. Please find Mentor Guluo to hand in the mission (please pay attention to the remaining time of the mission)】.

As his level increased, the ground around Fang Heng's standing position churned again.

More than two thousand zombie clones emerged from the depths of the ground one after another.

Soon, the densely packed zombies firmly occupied the area around the obelisk teleportation point.

He and Sharon had only managed to get one after working together to kill a high-level leader-class creature.

It was evident that the difficulty of subsequent leveling would greatly increase.

Never mind!

He would deal with future matters later; he would first go and check the remaining two talent rewards!

What if the difficulty increased?

With talent enhancement, his strength might undergo a qualitative improvement!

After grinding for so long, he had finally seen hope!

Fang Heng was excited and eager to complete the mission and get the rewards.

He closed the game prompts, patted Lu Yanlong on the shoulder, “I have something urgent to attend to; I'll take my leave first. I'll leave the rest to you. See you.”

Lu Yanlong opened his mouth, looked around at the zombies around the teleportation obelisk, and nodded blankly, “Okay.”

Fang Heng was eager to return home and directly stepped into the obelisk teleportation channel, returning to the Zombie Apocalypse game world.

Without any hesitation, he took out the Punozel World invitation letter again and teleported to the Punozel game world.

… …

Punozel.

Tower of Bones.

Fang Heng showed the invitation letter at the entrance and entered the upper level of the Tower of Bones under the guidance of two undead attendants.

“Oh, Fang Heng, you've come. What trouble have you encountered to come and find me so late?”

Undead players mostly rested during the day.

And high-level mentors seemed to have little dependence on sleep; they didn’t sleep much, and they usually didn’t see guests at night.

Seeing Fang Heng push the door open and enter, the undead mentor Guluo put down the book he was halfway through reading.

He had always been optimistic about Fang Heng.

That was why he would give him the opportunity to meet.

Fang Heng respectfully nodded to Mentor Guluo and said, “Mentor, I apologize for disturbing you late at night. I have come to hand in the mission.”

Hearing this, a look of surprise bloomed in Guluo's eyes, and he stared intently at Fang Heng.

“What did you say? Hand in the mission? You have completed your mission?”

“Yes, the mission you gave me has been completed.”

Guluo's eyes flashed with surprise, and his expression was somewhat solemn.

He stood up from the chair, walked to Fang Heng, and gently pressed his hand on Fang Heng's wrist.

He had really completed it!

Guluo looked Fang Heng up and down again, secretly nodding in his heart.

In less than a month, Fang Heng was able to increase his level from 30 to 40.

It really exceeded his expectations too much!

Originally, he just wanted to give Fang Heng a goal, give him a push, and give him more motivation.

He didn't expect Fang Heng to actually do it!

And he did it more than a week early!

He had finally found a promising figure among the undead juniors who could shoulder the heavy responsibility.

But just like this was not enough.

Right now, there was a chance…

Guluo hesitated a little.

Fang Heng had only been in contact with necromancy for too short a time.

He was worried about whether doing so would be counterproductive.

Fang Heng saw that Mentor Guluo's expression was strange and didn't say anything for a long time, and he couldn't help but feel nervous, asking, “Mentor Guluo…”

“Hmm.”

Guluo withdrew his hand, the satisfaction in his eyes already unable to be hidden, nodded and praised, “You did very well. I didn't misjudge you. I will give you the reward according to the agreement and activate your talent potential.”

As he spoke, a pale white light enveloped Fang Heng's body.

A game notification appeared on Fang Heng's retina.

【Hint: Player has completed the mission - Guluo’s special assessment】.

【Hint: Player has skipped the level 40 talent upgrade stage】.

【Hint: Player has obtained SSS-level talent advancement enhancement option one: Life Diversion (passive, can be canceled); talent enhancement option two: Mutation Infection (passive, can be canceled)】.

Fang Heng felt a strange power flowing through his body and couldn't help but close his eyes to feel it.

After a moment, the warm feeling dissipated from his body.

Fang Heng opened his eyes again and opened the game prompts to check.

Two more passive enhancement skill effects were added to the talent skill Zombie Clone description.

Talent Enhancement Effect One: Life Diversion (passive, can be canceled).

Effect Description 1: When there are zombie clones within a 1500-meter radius of the player, the final damage the player receives will be shared and borne by all zombie clones within the area (this damage is life-draining damage and cannot be reduced twice). If the damage exceeds the maximum health limit that the zombie clones can bear, the zombie clones will bear the maximum damage and die, and the remaining damage will be borne by the player.

Effect Description 2: The player will still be affected by the various negative effects attached to the damage.

Effect Description 3: This enhancement effect is passively activated after being turned on, and the player can choose whether to turn it on.

Talent Enhancement Effect Two: Mutation Infection (passive, can be canceled).

Effect Description 1: Your zombie clones have a mutation infection effect. Your zombie clones have a base 50% chance of causing the enemy to enter a mutation infection state after attacking the target (the infection probability will fluctuate depending on the level of both sides, but will not be lower than 0.1%), taking 20-100 points of damage per second. This state cannot be stacked, is permanent, but can be cleared by related healing items or spells rated S and above.

Effect Description 2: When a creature in a mutation infection state dies, the creature will be resurrected as a mutation infected body. (The number of mutation infected bodies generated is related to the strength of the infected creature; the player can choose to consume stored energy to double the number of mutation infected bodies obtained).

Skill Description 3: This enhancement effect is passively activated after being turned on, and the player can choose whether to turn it on.

Additional Description: The revived mutation infected body has the same attributes and passive skills as the player's zombie clones (normal form) and is controlled by the player. The mutation infected body cannot be revived after death.

Additional Description: The mutation infected body initially has 500 energy points. The energy points can provide the mutation infected body with 4-10 days of activity. After the duration ends, the player can consume energy to maintain the mutation infected body's duration.

Additional Description: The mutation infected body can also trigger the 'mutation infection' talent effect.

Additional Description: Some life forms cannot be affected by the mutation infection effect.
