Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

But…

It's strange, how can the people trained in necromancy use sacred techniques so skillfully?

And the effect is exceptionally good, easily breaking through a large number of wraith-like lifeforms.

It feels a bit odd.

Especially that divine artifact greatsword.

Ordinary people might not understand, but the old fogeys who can stay here in the high levels of the Necromancy Council are all at least several hundred years old, each with keen eyes and sharp vision.

They recognized the greatsword in Fang Heng's hand almost immediately.

Judging from the effect, it's definitely a divine artifact level weapon.

The expressions of the crowd varied, but they all tacitly remained silent.

In any case, Fang Heng is one of their necromantic faction.

So what if he took a high-level weapon from the Holy Court?

Doesn't that mean their necromantic faction is even more powerful?

Of course, to avoid trouble, no one would actively mention this.

They would just pretend they didn't see it.

Beside him, Shi Lipeng had been watching Fang Heng's actions the whole time without saying a word, but now he finally couldn't help but whisper, "Master, Fang Heng possesses sacred abilities, and it seems his level isn't low. Aren't necromancy and sacred arts highly conflicting? Can both abilities really be enhanced to such a terrifying extent at the same time?"

"Well, it is indeed difficult, but theoretically it can be done." The mentor nodded, his eyes filled with admiration as he looked at Fang Heng, nodding and continuing, "But he also has to pay more for it, ten times, a hundred times more hardship than ordinary people."

"Is that so."

Shi Lipeng looked at Fang Heng on the screen, feeling envious.

When could he become an existence that even the mentors of the Necromancy Council would admire?

"Council President!"

Inside the council hall, most people's attention was focused on Fang Heng in the projection mirror. At this moment, a person hurried to Georgie's side and whispered a report.

Georgie asked, "What is it?"

"We have just completed a portion of the translation of the literature and classics of Empress Persephone's dynasty. Through the content of the classics, we have compared and supplemented some missing words in the Land of the Dead created by Empress Persephone..."

"As a result, we found that some of our previous translations of information about Empress Persephone's tomb were incorrect, and some of them had major misinterpretations."

Hearing this, the surrounding high-level members of the Necromancy Council also turned their gazes here.

Previously, because they had very little and incomplete written records obtained from the tomb, coupled with a complete lack of understanding of the necromantic imperial language during Empress Persephone's era, the initial translation work was extremely slow, half guessing, and the accuracy rate was low, which was normal.

Now, with the entire book of classics as an auxiliary reading material, they supplemented many previously unclear word and phrase descriptions, and the accuracy of the translation also rapidly increased.

Past mistakes could also be corrected.

Georgie nodded and asked, "What specifically?"

"Well, a large section of prayer at the entrance of Empress Persephone's tomb, we originally translated it as describing Empress Persephone's life achievements and issuing special curses to invaders."

"But combined with the new classics, we believe that this information may not be the case. In addition to some records of Empress Persephone's achievements, the main reason for establishing the tomb was for a selection determined by the Empress."

"Selection?" Georgie frowned and asked, "Selection for what?"

"Let me say it, if our translation is correct..." Beside him, a gray-haired necromancy council mentor nodded, his expression solemn, and said, "After translation and correction, I am afraid it is a selection for a new body needed for Empress Persephone's resurrection."

Hearing this, everyone's expression changed simultaneously.

The resurrection of the Empress!

...

Fang Heng held the sacred greatsword, leading Li Shaoqiang and the two of them towards the deeper part of the tomb.

The wraith-like lifeforms that surged from all directions were continuously shattered by the shockwave effect caused by the sacred greatsword.

Until a bronze gate gradually appeared in front.

The rate of wraith generation began to gradually decrease.

Ahead, two bronze gates appeared at the end of the passage.

"Kaka, kaka kaka..."

Fang Heng said, taking the lead to break into the hall gate.

"Bang!!!"

After the three entered the gate, the metal gate behind them slammed shut.

The wailing wraith creature group was immediately isolated outside the gate.

Fang Heng put away the sacred greatsword, returned to his Reaper form, and carefully looked around.

A circular hall.

Death Knight!

Fang Heng's heart tightened, and he shifted his gaze to the corner of the hall.

Four tall death knight statues were set in the four corners of the hall, maintaining a standing posture.

"Kaka, kaka kaka..."

Before Fang Heng and the others could continue exploring, the giant stone made a violent tremor.

The rubble on a death knight in the corner of the hall gradually slipped off, and the dark armor and face on his body regained life in a short moment, resurrected and reappeared in front of everyone.

"Welcome to the challengers who have come to participate in Empress Persephone's trial."

The death knight overlooked Fang Heng and his party from afar.

"I feel your courage, but courage alone is not enough to pass here."

"Shua!"

The death knight drew out the heavy sword in his hand and pointed it at Fang Heng and the others.

"Let's begin. Defeat me. As a tribute to your courage, I will allow you to make the first move."

Fang Heng and the others exchanged glances.

Trial assessment?

It seems that passing through here requires defeating the death knight?

Game prompts then appeared on the retina.

[Hint: The player's current mission - Empress's Trial mission objective has been changed. Please defeat the death knight to obtain the death knight's approval].

[Hint: The current mission can be completed additionally].

Li Shaoqiang and Tan Shuo took a small step back in unison upon seeing this.

What should they do now?

They entered the Necromancy Council one step ahead of Fang Heng. In the past two days, they had been cramming a lot of knowledge about the Dead World and Empress Persephone's tomb in the council.

According to legend, Empress Persephone, the master of the Dead World, had eight death knights under her command.

The eight death knights were good at conquest, and their grade strength had reached the category of God-tier.

It was simply not something they could handle now.

Fang Heng also showed a solemn expression.

The last time he encountered a death knight, he did not confront him head-on, but completely relied on the power of the magic seed will in the sea of consciousness to obliterate the death knight's will.

This time…

"What? Still not attacking? Then…"

The death knight said, raising his right foot and stepping forward. The three-meter-tall figure gave people a great sense of oppression.
