Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

"Huff!"

The air in the Dead World isn't exactly fresh; it even carries a hint of decay.

And then there's...

Fang Heng raised his head and looked around.

The entire Dead World was shrouded in a thin layer of white fog.

The fog obscured vision and hindered a significant portion of perception.

Fang Heng sensed something, frowned, and with a flip of his right wrist, the Holy Greatsword appeared in his hand.

Whoosh!!!

The Holy Greatsword slashed forward violently.

"Buzz...!".

A deep golden ripple spread outwards, dispersing large swathes of thick fog!

"Bang! Bang bang!!"

Cracking sounds echoed from within the white fog.

Wraiths!

A large number of wraith creatures roamed within the fog.

The attack just now only managed to eliminate a small portion of them.

Stimulated by the holy wave, even more and denser groups of wraith creatures emerged from the white fog, surging towards Fang Heng.

"Most of the Dead World areas we've explored are like this; these wraith creatures can't be cleaned up. Clear one area, and a new one pops up."

Three necromancer mentors followed him out of the underground passage, standing beside Fang Heng.

"When we first entered the Dead World, it was the same. We wandered around in the fog until we stumbled upon an area with thinner mist."

"Later, after exploration, we discovered that the area happened to be Empress Persephone's tomb."

"After discussion, the Necromantic Council decided to establish a permanent teleportation channel outside Empress Persephone's tomb and begin exploring the tomb."

"Time really flies; it's been thousands of years in the blink of an eye."

The necromancer mentors sighed with emotion.

In the blink of an eye, the tomb collapsed.

"Fang Heng, leave the rest to us. We'll first complete the magic array's level upgrade, which will allow for smooth teleportation."

"Okay, good."

On second thought, there was no need to rush.

Summoning Abe Akie in the Dead World would greatly consume Abe Akie's stored energy.

Better to save where he could.

It was better to stick with the Necromantic Council.

While he had the chance, he could explore the Dead World further.

Maybe he could even try the task of rebuilding Empress Persephone's forces and find a way to get some benefits.

"Mentors, I want to explore the Dead World."

The three mentors were stunned upon hearing this, instinctively wanting to stop him, but after thinking about it, they held back.

The scenes they had just witnessed through the projection mirror were still fresh in their minds.

In the current environment and state, their combined strength couldn't match Fang Heng's.

"Alright, but be careful. The Dead World's fog will block some perception. Keep the stone slab with you to avoid accidents."

"Okay, I won't go far."

Fang Heng agreed, randomly chose a direction, transformed into a bat, and flew into the air, quickly disappearing into the mist.

Huh?

The mentors were astonished to see Fang Heng skillfully switching between forms in the Dead World.

To be able to switch forms so easily under the Dead World's aura?

The Necromantic Council's higher-ups, who had been observing Fang Heng through the projection mirror, were also somewhat surprised.

Good heavens, Fang Heng has this special ability to move quickly in the Dead World?

The entire necromantic camp lacked this ability, so their previous explorations of the Dead World were limited to the area around Empress Persephone's tomb.

They never expected Fang Heng to have this ability.

In that case...

With Fang Heng's assistance, their exploration speed of the Dead World might be much faster than they imagined.

...

Real world.

The top of a tall building in the city center.

Under the night sky, Xia Xi stood on the rooftop, staring at the World Library building in front of her.

"Master, there's news. The information we've tracked shows that Fang Heng is currently safe and is exploring the Dead World."

"Dead World..."

Xia Xi murmured, a cold glint appearing in her eyes.

The power of the Dead World's Master, Empress Persephone...

How enviable!

If I remember correctly, the person chosen to fight for that power was...

Mu Qingxin.

But they haven't heard from her in a long time.

The subordinate asked, "Master, the Dead World is extremely dangerous. Should we find a way to go and investigate?"

"That's Mu Qingxin's territory."

"Will Mu Qingxin be detrimental to Fang Heng?" The subordinate thought for a moment and added, "Mu Qingxin merged with the power of the Dead World, and her strength has been rapidly improved. So much time has passed, she must have entered a higher stage of cultivation, right? If she finds Fang Heng, won't she...?"

"There is indeed that possibility."

"Master..." The subordinate saw that Xia Xi didn't intend to take action, hesitated, and continued, "We've cultivated him for so long, if something happens... do we need to intervene?"

"No need. The survival of the fittest."

Xia Xi stared at the building where Fang Heng was, and said in a deep voice: "This is the test faced by the Gu worm. If he can't even pass this test, he can't blame others for becoming someone else's nourishment."

"Whoever wins the final victory, we will act according to the rules, and everything will be re-subjugated under our feet."

"Yes, also, Bessie has also made some moves. She is fully prepared in God's Domain, and Bessie is very confident in taking God's Domain in one fell swoop."

"Oh, really... let them fight first."

"The selection of the leader is a long competition. It doesn't matter if they run two laps first. The competition has not really started yet. I have great confidence in my vision..."

...

In bat form, Fang Heng traveled rapidly in the Dead World.

The Dead World was a very troublesome area. Besides losing health every moment, the large swaths of fog also made it difficult for him to discern directions.

The wraith creatures that emerged from the fog were even more troublesome. If he attacked them actively, it would only attract more and more wraith attacks.

Fang Heng's current level has reached LV: 50, and killing ordinary wraith creatures would not give any worthwhile rewards.

Therefore, Fang Heng chose to withstand all the attacks from the wraith bodies!

Relying on the effect of the Undying Body, in bat form, Fang Heng directly passed through layers of wraith creatures.

After flying forward for more than two hours, the fog gradually became thicker, and traces of undead creatures gradually appeared on the decayed ground.

Fang Heng was a little curious. After lowering his altitude towards the ground, he returned to human form and looked over from a distance.

They were skeletal creatures!

On the rotten ground, sporadic skeletal creatures were slowly gathering in the distance.

Suddenly, the stone slab in his hand was slightly hot.

Fang Heng opened the stone slab to check.

The Necromantic Council had been observing his situation remotely.

They also saw the undead creatures in the Dead World and immediately sent a message to introduce the situation.
