Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Fang Heng didn't directly refuse, but raised his head and asked, "Is that so? Then I need to consider it carefully. Tell me, how do you want to cooperate?"

"Of course, it's to cooperate to find the so-called Ancient Divine Tree. As for the methods, there are many, such as first trying to find the Tree Spirit Clan and getting some information from their mouths, and also, for example…"

Ji Haiting paused as he spoke, and gestured to his back, "And also, for example, looking for some clues from other places."

Fang Heng looked at Ji Haiting, "Is it that simple?"

"Alright, then I'll be frank. We obtained some information from some ancient books. The Tree Spirit Clan used to be the overlords of this world. They possessed extremely powerful power, but even they completely disappeared in some kind of crisis."

"To be honest, if we're talking about selfish motives, we do indeed crave that kind of power. Our Wanling Technology Company wants to control this power for our own use."

Ji Haifeng continued, "As for more, it's actually a preventive measure in the face of crisis. You should know that the Tree Spirit Clan's power was so strong back then, but they still suddenly disappeared completely due to some external reason."

"This makes me feel very anxious. I'm always worried that the same history will repeat itself, and it's very likely that in the next time, we humans will be the ones facing the crisis of extermination. So, searching for the power of the Tree Spirit Clan is actually a preparation to deal with the crisis in advance, and it's also for the survival and continuation of our race."

Fang Heng listened, curled his lips, and said, "Sounds pretty good, but ultimately it's still for power, right?"

"Hahaha, you've said a lot. Aren't you the same? Only power can have the right to speak. This is an unchanging truth. We can't always pin our hopes on the mercy of others."

Ji Haiting laughed heartily, "If you are willing to cooperate, after obtaining the power of the Tree Spirit Clan, we are willing to share the power with you. What do you think?"

"Forget it, I still prefer to act on my own. After all, I don't know much about you."

Ji Haiting glanced coldly at Glennan on the high ground.

"By the way, can I take a look at that? It's my first time here, and I haven't seen this yet."

Fang Heng didn't seem to care about Glennan, looked at Ji Haiting, and pointed to the withered tree not far away.

"Of course, please."

Ji Haiting said, stepping aside and continuing to explain, "We have installed some activation devices on the ruins, on the one hand for testing, and on the other hand to check the state of the withered tree. We have been trying to awaken it, but unfortunately the progress is very general. To be honest, this withered tree is the most well-preserved one among all the ruins we have searched."

Fang Heng and Claire walked past several researchers from Wanling Technology Company until they came to the withered tree.

Ji Haiting also followed.

Under the gaze of everyone, Fang Heng slowly stretched out his hand and pressed it on the withered tree ruins.

He couldn't sense any fluctuations of natural power from the withered tree.

The withered tree had completely lost its vitality.

Or rather, it was already dead.

Fang Heng turned his head to look at Claire beside him.

Claire also slowly stretched out her hand towards the withered tree and gently pressed it on the trunk of the withered tree, gently closing her eyes.

This action lasted for a full minute.

Just as the guards were getting a little impatient, a slightly excited voice suddenly came from behind.

"Director Ji! Abnormal fluctuations have been detected in the withered tree's life form!"

What!

Ji Haiting's heart jumped upon hearing this, and he turned his head and stared at Claire.

Under Claire's touch, the entire tree trunk, which had originally been completely withered, faintly bloomed with a faint cyan light.

What kind of power is that!?

A hint of surprise appeared in Ji Haiting's eyes.

Everyone remained silent, waiting quietly for Claire.

After waiting for another two full minutes.

Claire retracted her hand again, exhaled, and seemed a little tired.

Ji Haiting couldn't help but ask, "Do you have any findings?"

Claire shook her head and took a small step back towards Fang Heng.

Fang Heng shook his head and said, "It seems there are no special findings. Thank you. I think it's time for us to leave."

Ji Haiting stood in place, blocking Fang Heng and the others, looking at them without moving his feet.

"What? You don't want to let us leave?"

"I don't know what the Tree Spirit Clan told you, but our Wanling Technology Company has always abided by the law. Everything we do is for the continuation of mankind. I hope you can reconsider my proposal."

"There's no need to consider it. I don't like being forced by others."

"Then I'm sorry, according to company regulations, I can't let you leave like this. Really, I really hope to cooperate with you, but…"

Ji Haiting sighed disappointedly, then slowly turned around and waved his hand to signal his subordinates to take Fang Heng and the others away.

More than a dozen guards who had been following Ji Haiting stared at Fang Heng and the others, with solemn expressions in their eyes.

"Brother Fang Heng, I…"

Just as Claire was about to say something, she suddenly felt a little dizzy in front of her, and then her body went limp and fell towards Fang Heng.

At the same time, Fang Heng felt bursts of stinging pain in his brain, and lines of game prompts flashed on his retina.

[Hint: The player is under an unknown mental piercing attack].

[Hint: The player's mental strength passes the test, immune to dizziness, the player suffers 234 points of mental damage].

[Hint: The player is under an unknown mental piercing attack…].

[Hint: The player's mental strength passes the test…].

Eh?

Fang Heng's heart moved, and he immediately reached out to hug Claire, who was dizzy beside him, and frowned at the dozen guards in front of him.

Special mental attack?

He had seen similar attacks on Charlene before!

These people in front of him are all mind-type ability users!

"Ka, ka ka ka…"

A cracking sound came from the surrounding space.

Fang Heng immediately sensed an invisible barrier force field rapidly condensing in the surrounding space.

Mental barrier!

Miscalculation!

The bloodline of the Blood Clan can indeed sense the power of blood and energy.

But mind-type abilities completely belong to another kind of energy fluctuation.

In the perception of the Blood Clan, the blood and energy of these mind-type ability users are no different from ordinary people!
