Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Just as he was speaking, the researcher suddenly saw something that astonished him greatly, staring blankly at Fang Heng in front of him.

What!?

He saw Fang Heng reach into the bucket containing the Water of Life.

Ripples spread out in the bucket.

Then, the water level in the bucket slowly decreased.

What's going on!?

The researcher rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

The Water of Life was actually being absorbed by him!?

At the same time, a game notification appeared on Fang Heng's retina.

【Hint: Player absorbs the energy of the Water of Life through High-Tier Naturalism】.

【Hint: Player gains +235 High-Tier Naturalism experience】.

Not bad.

Fang Heng's eyes lit up.

Regardless of whether there was any problem with the task at hand, at least the Water of Life was somewhat useful.

After leveling up High-Tier Naturalism, it was already difficult to absorb natural energy as a means of gaining experience under normal circumstances.

With the help of the Water of Life, he could finally level up his Naturalism skill.

Anyway, he couldn't take all this Water of Life with him.

Putting two buckets in his backpack would incur an encumbrance penalty, and taking five buckets was already the limit.

As for the task description, he only needed to take one bucket to complete it.

Fang Heng estimated that the natural energy contained in each bucket of Water of Life wasn't strong, only enough to increase his Naturalism energy value by about two thousand points.

"Let's do it."

Fang Heng nodded to Mo Jiawei, and the two immediately each put two buckets of water into their backpacks, then Fang Heng began to absorb it.

Since he was already here.

And there was still time.

He would drain it all before leaving.

… …

Meanwhile, hundreds of kilometers away from the Wanling Company headquarters building in the Northern District of the Federation.

The Tree Spirit race gathered in the shadows, observing the Central Research Institute of Wanling Technology Company from afar.

Everyone waited quietly.

Wannis nodded slightly and said, "Elder Senzo, I have confirmed that the Nium alloy is in the research institute. I previously obtained a restored Otherworld teleportation magic array from some humans. As long as we can obtain the Nium alloy and combine it with the restarted magic array, we will be able to return to our own world."

"Yes, you have done very well this time."

Senzo nodded, "I have already contacted the elders of the other tribes. To prevent the infiltration plan from failing, they will participate in this operation with us."

Wannis frowned.

"Great Elder, do you still doubt me?"

"Just in case."

Senzo shook his head and said sternly, "The Central Research Institute of Wanling Technology Company is heavily guarded, and it won't be easy to sneak in. It would be best if you can find the Nium alloy. If you fail, we will immediately take action and attack."

"Okay, Great Elder, I will do my best."

"Yes, this operation must not fail. No matter the cost, the Nium alloy must be obtained."

"Understood!"

As he spoke, Wannis's phone rang. He lowered his head, took out his phone, and glanced at the message.

"What? Is everything still going smoothly?"

"Yes, it's nothing, just some small matters. We can prepare to act. Wanling Technology Company is chasing after some humans, and we can use them to attract Wanling Technology Company's attention. When a large portion of the guards are drawn away, the pressure on us will be greatly reduced."

Another Tree Spirit race elder stepped forward, nodded, and said to the others, "Great Elder, the space disruption device has been set up and will automatically run in 40 minutes…"

… …

Teleportation Hall of Wanling Technology Company's Northern District Headquarters Building.

After receiving the news of Fang Heng's appearance, Ji Haiting immediately rushed to the scene through the teleportation device.

Fang Heng!

There were many research projects related to the Tree Spirit race in the research institute, and even Ji Haiting found it difficult to determine Fang Heng's purpose.

After all, a large part of the building was open to the public, so the overall security level of the research institute was only Level A, which was why it was built in such a noisy place in the city center. Even the security level was not as high as the research institute that was attacked before.

Outside, the Federation's semi-mechanized modification teams also arrived one after another, completely sealing off the periphery of the entire research institute.

In addition, the semi-mechanized guard team, equipped with active agent injection guns targeting the Lickers, also began to slowly advance towards the interior of the research institute, clearing the Licker creatures encountered along the way.

In fact, the number of Licker creatures found in this invasion was not large.

With the cooperation of special injections, the Federation soldiers quickly gained control of the entire building.

More than half an hour after entering the building, a guard hurriedly returned and whispered a few words in the ear of the research institute director.

The research institute director frowned as he listened to his subordinate's report, and a look of suspicion appeared on his face, "What? It's gone?"

Ji Haiting heard a few words from the side and couldn't help but ask, "What's the matter? Is something missing?"

The director turned to look at Ji Haiting and said sternly, "Director Ji, we have just completed the A area where the source of the black mist appeared. We have not found the cause of the black mist, and the Lickers have also been cleared, but we have not found any relevant information."

"But we found something very strange…"

"What?"

"Someone stole the Water of Life."

Ah? Water of Life?

Ji Haiting raised his eyebrows, feeling puzzled.

The Water of Life did indeed have a good effect on ordinary people, but after detailed testing by the technology company and the alien dependents, they found that the power contained in it was just a variant of natural energy.

For them, the effect was really limited and difficult to apply to actual combat.

There were even quite a few in the Tree Spirit race.

Did Fang Heng launch such a large-scale attack on the research institute just to seize the Water of Life?

It felt very strange.

After all, the life recovery effect of the Licker creatures controlled by Fang Heng far exceeded that of the Water of Life by ten thousand times.

Ji Haiting asked, "Where are Fang Heng and the others? Have they already escaped?"

"Yes, we have sealed off the entire research institute building, and all personnel have been evacuated. We have not found any trace of Fang Heng yet, and it is likely that he has already escaped."

"I see, go down."

Ji Haiting waved his hand.

The defense line had not been fully deployed yet.

With Fang Heng's ability, it was normal to escape in advance.

But… …

The whole thing felt strange.

"Director Ji."

The accompanying assistant walked over, leaned in, and whispered in Ji Haiting's ear, "News from the Central Research Institute in the Northern District is that there has been a large-scale electromagnetic interference in the teleportation space over there, which is a bit abnormal."

"Central Research Institute!"

Ji Haiting's heart suddenly moved.

The Central Research Institute in the Northern District was still a long distance away from here.

And that was where all the core research institutes of the entire Wanling Technology Company were located!
