Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 2597  Strengthening

"There's nothing we can do. With our strength, we can't stop the Disaster..." Sirius had fought the Disaster face-to-face before, and the catastrophic images still haunted his mind. "Only Her Majesty, the Empress, had the strength to resist it."

Rio's anger gradually swelled within him, and his tone grew more furious, "Old man, I won't hold it against you because you're on the brink of death, but let me tell you this—no one can destroy our Empire!"

Fang Heng couldn't understand the conversation between the two, especially since Kotal had only translated part of it. He was left confused and unsure of the situation.

Seeing that the conversation was getting more heated, almost to the point of an argument, he turned to Tal and asked, "What are they arguing about?"

Tal replied, "It's about the Disaster."

Fang Heng shook his head and said, "Don't let them argue. Tell them that we only want to seek the Empress's will. We haven't broken any rules of the Dragon Grave Mountain range, and we have no intention of being enemies with the Empire. But if they insist on obstructing us, we won't just give up."

After hearing Tal's translation, Rio calmed down, took a deep breath, and slowly turned his gaze toward Fang Heng, speaking a long sentence.

After listening, Tal's expression grew serious. He turned to Fang Heng and said, "Rio, on behalf of the Empire, is offering a deal. The death realm is facing a crisis from the Disaster. He will allow you to continue recruiting Bone Dragons and help you find the remnants of the Empress's will. But in return, he asks that you assist the Empire in fighting the Disaster."

"Of course."

Fang Heng shrugged, glanced at the game prompt, and said, "No problem."

Since there was no game prompt, it meant it wasn't a mission.

He decided to agree for now.

As for the so-called Disaster, he didn't understand it and didn't care either.

He was just focused on getting some benefits first. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Fang Heng thought this through and asked, "Can I continue now?"

Kotal had no choice but to step aside again.

He understood very well.

If Rio had come earlier with his team, they might have been able to stop Fang Heng.

But now?

Faced with nearly thirty Bone Dragons, the team under Rio's command was completely outmatched!

"Perfect timing. I think it's about time to enter the Dragon Grave Mountain range and take a look," Fang Heng said.

As he spoke, two dark red soul flames flickered in his pupils.

Immediately, the undead Bone Dragons perched high in the sky responded, flapping their wings and soaring into the air, flying deeper into the Dragon Grave Mountain range.

The undead Bone Dragons weren't invaders, and as they entered the Dragon Grave Mountain range, they weren't attacked by the other undead Bone Dragons within the mountain range.

But that didn't stop Fang Heng from taking action himself!

Corrosive dragon's breath!

"ROOOOAR!!!"

The front row of undead Bone Dragons released their corrosive dragon's breath and launched an attack against the undead Bone Dragons that were in a dormant state deep within the mountain range.

The undead Bone Dragons that were attacked were instantly enraged, their wings flapping as they took to the air.

"Boom!!!"

The two sides collided again.

The surrounding undead Bone Dragons also joined the fight.

Here they come!

Retreat!

Fang Heng saw that he had drawn nearly ten undead Bone Dragons out of the fray and quickly ordered them to retreat.

It was the same as before.

The undead Bone Dragons that had already been branded with Fang Heng's soul mark, circling above the Bone Forest, swarmed up to trap and kill the hostile undead Bone Dragons.

Below, the zombie horde immediately began casting their soul brand.

The attempt to complete the summoning lock was underway.

Kotal, along with his guards, watched from a distance, and a bitter expression appeared in his eyes.

Great.

Here we go again.

At this moment, they encountered a major problem within the Empire.

Could no one really stop him now?

Rio and the undead army behind him were witnessing this scene for the first time, their eyes filled with shock.

That human!

He was incredibly strange!

After waiting for over ten hours beneath the White Bone Forest, Fang Heng finally figured out the "auto-farming" strategy, getting the remote automation setup for recruitment to work.

Even when he wasn't there, his zombie clones and Bone Dragons would continue the recruitment process according to the pre-set program, with no interruptions.

"We can head out now."

It wasn't until this point that Fang Heng, in cooperation with Rio and the others, chose to enter the depths of the Dragon Grave Mountain range.

The group moved deeper into the Dragon Grave Mountain, following their perceptions toward the direction of the Empress's lingering soul will.

Along the way, if they encountered any undead Bone Dragons, Fang Heng would use the already branded undead Bone Dragons to lure them outside, where his zombie clones would slowly imprint them with their spiritual mark.

With Tal—who was familiar with the mountain's terrain—leading the way, they faced no danger. Soon, the group reached the deeper areas of the mountain.

Stepping on the shattered, massive bones of the mountain, Fang Heng raised his head and looked into the distance.

There it was!

A mass of black soul will was coiled and entangled there.

Found it!

Fang Heng raised his hand, signaling the group to stay back, and carefully observed the black will from afar.

It seemed that the broken will of the Empress was currently very calm.

Meanwhile, the high-ranking members of the undead council, who were observing through the mirror, were once again thrown into an uproar.

The crowd reacted with exclamations.

What the hell!

They could clearly see the black mist!

Fang Heng had found the broken will of the Empress again!

If they could bring the Empress's will back from the death realm and study it...

The instructors began to get nervous.

In the mirror, Sirius slowly spoke, explaining, "This is the central area of the mountain range. According to legends, the Frostbone Dragon was once the king of the Dragon Grave Mountain range. It lived here. In her youth, the Empress came here and subdued it. From my judgment, the area where the Empress's will is located is related to some of the Empress's important memories before her death."

Fang Heng turned and looked at Sirius, asking, "What should we do now?"

"It probably won't be easy," Sirius said, shaking his head lightly. His life was nearing its end. "Inside the mausoleum, we relied on the ice crystal stone pillars to guide and condense the Empress's power for restoration. But now the ice crystal stone pillars have dissipated. All I can do is try to guide it as best as I can, and hope it works."

Fang Heng asked in confusion, "Guide? Where do you want to guide the Empress's remaining will?"

"To your body," Sirius replied, looking at Fang Heng. "Right now, only your body can accomplish this. The Empress's broken will will temporarily reside in the sea of your consciousness. Don't worry, the Empress's will is already shattered. It won't harm your body. It just needs a temporary place to stay."

Fang Heng furrowed his brow, looking at Sirius, and faintly sensed something was off.

Are you sure it's safe?

Sirius probably didn't know that he had already absorbed the Empress's broken will once before in the mausoleum, did he?

He remembered that time—the Empress's will hadn't been so easy to deal with. It had violently tried to consume his own will.

Fang Heng was deep in thought when a game prompt suddenly appeared again.
