Chapter 1242 - 1242 Scraping
1242 Scraping
“Boom!!”
The infected mutated soldier’s HP was emptied. He swayed a few times in front of Fang Heng and then fell to the ground on his back.
[Hint: You have killed an infected mutated elite soldier of the Empire. Your mission exploration rate has increased by 1.5%. Your trial score has increased slightly.]
Fang Heng shifted his gaze to the five infected mutated soldiers who were chasing after Mo Jiawei. He raised his sword and attacked them again.
The bloodthirst thorn’s absorption attribute could only last for a short five minutes. In order to not waste time, he cooperated with Mo Jiawei and let the latter go to the front to lure the monsters. This was a seamless connection.
The two infected mutated soldiers who were charging to the front, one on the left and one on the right, saw Fang Heng and swung their giant hammers forward almost at the same time.
“Boom!”
“Boom!!”
Two consecutive shock attacks, one in front and one at the back, sent the area around the landing point into a state of shock!
“I’ve seen a ghost.”
Mo Jiawei cursed under his breath. He was so frightened that he quickly retreated to avoid the attack range.
This really wasn’t for humans to play with!
It was fine if they fought with these monsters one-on-one, but once they start to accumulate, the monsters would be able to use their hammers to stun and shake the ground continuously.
Fang Heng was also affected by the shock effect. His body that was charging forward paused in mid-air and immediately recovered from the shock by relying on his undying body. He drew out his long sword and aimed at the nearest infected mutated soldier and started slashing.
With the cooperation of Tang Mingyue’s ice-type control spell, red numbers kept appearing above the heads of the infected mutated soldiers.
Fang Heng had already gotten used to the rhythm of the attack.
In fact, the infected mutated soldiers had strong bodies and were using heavy weapons like hammers, which needed to be used within a certain range. When a few of them gathered together, they looked a little bloated, and it was difficult for them to launch effective attacks.
In addition to Tang Mingyue’s spell control and the absorption agility attribute bonus of the bloodthirst thorn, Fang Heng dodged the attacks with ease.
Not to mention, there was also the additional fault tolerance provided by the undying effect.
Even if he made a mistake, it wouldn’t be fatal. He wouldn’t die even if he was hit a few times.
Fang Heng was in the mood to chat while avoiding the attacks of the infected mutated soldiers.
“What’s the situation? Why did you attract so many of them?”
Seeing that Fang Heng could handle it, Mo Jiawei heaved a sigh of relief. He took a few steps back and explained, “I’ve already reached the end of the tunnel. There’s a dark area at the end of the tunnel, and I can’t see clearly. When I walked in, I found that there were mutated soldiers inside. I quickly turned around and ran, and they immediately pursued me.”
Fang Heng asked, “Can’t see clearly? Are there more infected soldiers inside?”
Mo Jiawei recalled and said, “The situation was too urgent at that time, so I didn’t take a close look. There should be quite a few more.”
Fang Heng frowned and took a look at the game hint.
One infected mutated soldier could provide about 1.5% of the exploration points. The more he farmed, the greater the increase in exploration points.
He had to face it. He might as well continue farming!
The mission exploration points were full, and he could wait for a few days!
“Alright, let’s go and lure another wave over!”
Mo Jiawei had the same thought. After hearing Fang Heng’s words, his eyes lit up and he gulped down a mouthful of the potion, “Alright, let’s continue. It’s fine as long as you can hold on!”
On the other side, Wu Shijiang was listening to the conversation between Fang Heng and the others, his face full of surprise.
Lord Fang Heng was able to easily dodge the attacks of five infected mutated soldiers and even seize the opportunity to counterattack?
But he was only a King spirit system mage!
Wu Shijiang had witnessed the entire process of Fang Heng killing monsters.
From the fear they felt when they first encountered the infected mutated soldiers, to the sight of Fang Heng and the other two skillfully cooperating to defeat the enemy, and then to Mo Jiawei’s cooperation to lure monsters, they quickly pulled monsters and killed them one by one.
Until now, after he had gotten used to it, he could even pull a group of monsters in one wave.
After all, their elite team, which was formed by the top 10 teams in the land of barbarians, was almost wiped out by these infected mutated soldiers!
But Fang Heng and the others?
Why did they look so relaxed?
Wu Shijiang suddenly came back to his senses and remembered his mission.
He couldn’t help at the moment, but he finally had a chance to go offline and communicate with the players. He hurriedly nodded and said to everyone, “Everyone, I’m going offline to check out the situation outside. I’ll be back soon!”
Fang Heng focused his attention and maintained the rhythm of scraping the infected mutated soldiers. He nodded and said, “Alright, hurry and come back!”
Wu Shijiang nodded and immediately logged out of the game.
….
Offline, a group of players was guarding the gaming cabin. Seeing the cabin door open, the players gathered around, and more than a dozen synchronized video cameras were aimed at Wu Shijiang’s face.
The scene was directly transmitted to each of the sub-venues.
The team leader rushed over and asked, “Wu Shijiang, what’s the current situation in the underground palace?”
Wu Shijiang ignored the dizziness he felt after logging out of the game and quickly explained what had happened after entering the underground palace.
“They only have three people?”
After listening to Wu Shijiang’s general explanation of the situation in the underground palace, everyone’s faces revealed a look of disbelief.
The player team rated Lord Fang Heng’s strength as S-level, which was one rank lower than Wangnet’s. He was equivalent to a legendary mage.
Of course, in the domain with the sacred tree in the Land of Plague, it could reach SS-level, the same level as Wangnet.
In theory, it wasn’t impossible for Fang Heng to deal with the infected soldiers. However, it definitely wouldn’t be that easy.
Wu Shijiang nodded his head.
He really wanted to say that only Fang Heng and Her Highness Mingyue were actually involved in the fight. Mo Jiawei was just helping to lure the monsters from the side.
“It seems that Lord Fang Heng has a way to deal with the infected mutated soldiers.”
On the other side, Li Xue heard Wu Shijiang’s words through a remote video call. She lowered her head, thought for a moment before pressing the control button, and asked, “What does Lord Fang Heng want to do? Did they want to explore the entire underground palace? Or are they more interested in the demonic seed in the underground palace?”
Wu Shijiang heard the questions through the video and hesitated for a moment.
He said with some uncertainty, “Lord Fang Heng didn’t say. However, I think they want to search the entire underground palace thoroughly. The area at the end of the passage is dark. Mr. Mo has already started to lure monsters to kill them. We should continue to explore later.”
Everyone fell into a short silence as they turned to look at Li Xue.
Lord Fang Heng’s strength was much stronger than they had expected and could easily deal with the infected mutated soldiers.
This way, it was not impossible to search the entire underground palace.
Could it be…
Fang Heng didn’t want to collect any evidence of Salvador’s crimes from the beginning. Instead, he wanted to explore the entire underground palace.
Li Xue felt it as well.
There might be something in the underground palace that Lord Fang Heng was very concerned about. The real purpose of Fang Heng and the others infiltrating the underground palace was to explore something.
The good news was that the game had tacitly acknowledged the relationship between the player team and Lord Fang Heng as teammates. During the process of exploring the underground palace, their mission completion rate was also constantly increasing.
