Chapter 1376 - 1376 Location
1376 Location
After completing the crystal transformation, the surface of the zombie’s body was covered with a layer of crystallized material, greatly increasing defense ability and output!
If it could be fused with the Licker, the Licker’s combat ability would at least double!
“Yes…” Qiu Yaokang put away the instrument and opened the record book he carried with him. He said, “The fusion of the zombie creature and the ‘demonic seed’ virus is currently preparing for the first phase of the live experiment.”
“According to my estimation, the success rate of normal zombies turning into crystallized zombies is estimated to be around 50%, and the fusion rate with the Licker is estimated to reach 20%. Currently, we are mainly lacking experimental data. We need to carry out the next step of living experiments to obtain more accurate data for the next step of the experiment.”
Qiu Yaokang looked at Fang Heng and said, “I’m ready. We can start the live experiment this afternoon.”
“Cough cough…”
Fang Heng coughed lightly and shook his head. He replied, “We can wait for the live experiment. Let’s put it aside for now and wait for a while.”
He had no choice. Even though he was very envious of the crystallized zombie clone, he needed a large amount of King of Gods’ points to conduct experiments on living bodies.
He still owed King of Gods’ points!
Although Li Shaoqiang’s goods had all been sold, Fang Heng found another big problem.
There was a limit to how many King of Gods’ points players could trade with each other.
There was an upper limit for each month. Any portion that exceeded the upper limit would be charged an additional processing fee by the game.
The larger the number of points traded, the higher the handling fee. Once the number reached a certain level, there would be a handling fee of more than 99%.
It was really not easy to obtain King of Gods’ points.
Seeing Qiu Yaokang’s suspicious gaze, Fang Heng changed the topic and said, “By the way, have you checked the black floccule left behind by the abyssal demon? Did you find anything?”
“Hmm, you’re right. I did find something.”
Qiu Yaokang narrowed his eyes and continued, “I found a piece of information in it.”
“Hmm? Information?”
“I analyzed its DNA profile and found a very strange sequence in it. This sequence was not naturally generated. It was optimized and modified. It looks like a record of some kind of language.”
Qiu Yaokang handed a piece of paper to Fang Heng.
On the paper were two lines of pictures made up of various special symbols.
“I’ve already given the pictures to Sandy to study. He’s certain that he’s seen similar written records in the underground world and is already studying them. However, it seems that he’s encountered some trouble and hasn’t given me any feedback yet.”
Fang Heng took the paper and checked it. A game prompt flashed across his retina.
Mission title: Unknown message.
Mission difficulty: A-SSS
Description: Your companion discovered an unknown message while studying the remnants of the demonic seed. Please try to decipher the message to trigger the subsequent mission.
Mission requirement: Unlock the message.
Mission reward: Next phase of the mission.
Fang Heng raised his eyebrows.
It was a mission with a floating difficulty of A-SSS level.
Looking at the mission description, he could tell that it was a non-combat mission.
Similar missions depended on luck.
Sometimes, if they were lucky, they could easily complete the mission. If they were unlucky, it was also possible that they would go around in circles for more than ten years without finding any clues.
Fang Heng put the note into his backpack.
“There’s still more research value to be found in the remains of the demonic seed. I’ll continue to analyze and study it. I hope to find more.”
Qiu Yaokang closed his notebook and said, “Alright, this is the research content and findings of the previous phase. I’ll wait for you to start the next phase of the crystallization experiment.”
“We will shelf the crystallization topic for later. Come, let’s go check out the curse of the vampires.”
Fang Heng brought Qiu Yaokang back to the Zombie Apocalypse prison headquarters through the portal.
“Welcome, Your Majesty!”
In the teleportation channel, three Princes of the vampires personally welcomed them. They knelt on one knee with the other Dukes of the vampires.
The vampires looked nervous and excited. They had developed for tens of thousands of years, but this was the first time they had seen substantial progress in breaking the curse.
All the vampires present had been selected by the Elders Council to participate in the experiment to remove the curse.
If everything went smoothly, the curse that had plagued the entire vampire race for many years would be greatly improved!
“Get up.”
Fang Heng raised his hand and looked at Victor on the right, “Is everything okay?”
Victor had stayed up the whole night and was fully prepared. He waved to Fang Heng and said, ” Fang Heng, we checked the space tearing device last night and tested it again this morning. We are sure that the portal can be fully operational.”
“Alright.”
Fang Heng nodded and said, “Let’s begin.”
“Yes, listen to my command. Activate the space tearing device and establish the target teleportation channel.”
This was the first time the prison teleportation hall had opened a portal to a higher world boundary. Victor took it seriously and personally commanded the team.
[Hint: The player is establishing a space passageway: Current destination-Intermediate game world: Barbarian realm.]
The mechanical engineers were preparing to open the passage when Sandy appeared out of nowhere and moved to Fang Heng’s side.
“Fang Heng, I heard that you’re going back to the barbarian realm?”
Sandy had two big dark circles under his eyes. He scratched his head and looked distressed.
Last night, he had been tortured by the symbols and pictures that Qiu Yaokang had obtained.
Sandy was very sure that the decoding of this text was related to the language left behind by the cave-dwelling beasts. He had clearly found a huge breakthrough, but the whole puzzle was missing some extremely crucial clues and could not be completed successfully.
“I have to go back to the barbarian realm with them and look for clues in the underground world.”
“Alright, you follow Qiu Yaokang later. He will bring you along.”
Fang Heng nodded at Mo Jiawei.
Mo Jiawei made an OK gesture to indicate that there was no problem.
This time, Fang Heng and Mo Jiawei teleported over together.
This was mainly because he did not have any King of Gods’ points.
“Channel connection successful! ”
“Locating…”
“Establishing channel, 92%…”
“Boom!!!”
The space tearing device let out a mechanical roar and a blue pillar of light rose from the central teleportation hall.
Swoosh!
The pillar of light slowly shrank and condensed into a ball of light in front of everyone’s eyes, floating in the air.
“Teleportation channel established. Teleportation status stable.”
“Fang Heng, it’s ready.”
Victor raised his hand to signal to Fang Heng that the teleportation passage was completed and they could start the teleportation.
Compared to the channel in the elementary game, the intermediate game used a teleportation ball.
This way, they could save more energy.
“Alright, let’s go.”
Fang Heng strode forward and pressed his hand on the blue ball of light.
The game notification on his retina refreshed again.
[Hint: The player has entered the space passage. Accompanying player-Mo Jiawei. It consumes 200 King of Gods’ points (paid by Player Mo Jiawei). Players can stay in the game for up to 72 hours.]
