“For example, three B-level talent enhancement plans can be fused into one A-level talent enhancement plan.”
Qiu Yaokang said as he crushed the few evolution crystal fragments in his hand.
“Bang!”
The red mist was quickly absorbed by Qiu Yaokang’s palm.
“After these few days of research on the evolution crystal fragments, I have also awakened my talent skill.”
There… there was such an operation!
You’re an NPC!
Fang Heng’s heart skipped a beat, and he immediately asked.
“Then what about three S-level plans? Is it possible to fuse into a higher-level one?”
“This…”
Qiu Yaokang hesitated for a moment.
“Theoretically, it’s possible, but as far as I know, an A-level talent enhancement plan is already extremely rare. Are you sure you can find an S-level talent enhancement plan?”
“Of course, I can!”
Fang Heng was overjoyed!
He had already obtained one S-level talent enhancement plan from the Dark Knights. He had to think of a way to obtain one more from the Phoenix Sound Gaming Company to make two.
He was only missing the last one!
He had to think of another way. It was not impossible to obtain it.
Oh right!
“I can collect three A-level talent enhancement plans and fuse them into one S-level talent enhancement plan.”
Seeing Fang Heng’s delighted expression, Qiu Yaokang reminded him.
“Don’t be too happy. Let me remind you that the enhancement plan that has already been fused once cannot be fused again.”
“This…”
Fang Heng’s excitement was immediately reduced by more than half.
“In other words, don’t even think about using nine B-level enhancement plans to create an S-level enhancement plan. Moreover, the fusion materials also require evolution crystals as a medium. You will need to be responsible for this part.”
“That’s not a problem.”
“Also, using this talent will cause a lot of damage to my body. After one fusion, it will take at least a year for me to fully recover. I will take a live sample of Alex from you as payment.”
Qiu Yaokang looked at Fang Heng.
“I need you to provide me with a sample of Alex so that I can start a new research project. This is the premise of our cooperation. Do you think you can accept it?”
[Hint: Player mission triggered-cooperative research and development.]
Mission name: Cooperative research and development.
Mission description: Within 30 days, you can hand over three talent enhancement plans of the same level (the highest level is S-level) to Qiu Yaokang. He will help you fuse into a higher-level talent enhancement plan (the highest level is SSS-level).
Mission requirement: Alex live sample*1.
Time limit: 30 days.
Fang Heng carefully read the mission description.
It was indeed correct!
Just like his own talent attribute, there was a higher level, the SSS-level, hidden above the S-level.
However, to reach SSS-level, it required extremely harsh conditions to trigger it!
“Deal!”
Fang Heng had no reason to reject and immediately accepted the mission.
He handed over a sample of Alex’s research.
“I’ll find three enhancement plans as soon as possible and bring them back.”
“As soon as possible. You only have 30 days.”
[Hint: Your friendship with Qiu Yaokang has improved slightly.]
Where could he find the last S-level talent enhancement plan?
Driving the military truck out of the villa, Fang Heng had a slight headache.
A few major forces in the game might have it.
However, such a high-value enhancement plan would be fought over internally by the major guilds and would not be sold to the public at all.
If he really could not do it, he could only try his luck on the black market.
The black market was shady and illicit, and there were many scammers.
Being cheated of money was a small matter. Wasting time and delaying the development of the game was the worst loss.
Fang Heng did not want to go to the black market unless it was necessary.
It was better to take it one step at a time and get the enhancement plan of the Phoenix Sound Gaming Company first.
At the moment, he still needed to deal with the Dawn Game Guild first!
Back in the prison, two elite soldiers of the Dark Knights stood at the entrance of the prison and reported to Fang Heng.
“Sir! The elite soldiers of the Dark Knights reporting to you!”
Liao Bufan watched from the side and was extremely envious.
Heavens! They were from the Dark Knights!
They were the highest-level mercenaries that could be recruited in the game!
The number of mercenaries was extremely limited. If one died, there would be one less mercenary. Only large-scale forces like the federation would be able to get their hands on them.
Even if ordinary players could get their hands on them, they would not be able to afford them!
In the past, Liao Bufan had seen a few pictures in the forum. He did not expect to see the real thing with his own eyes today.
It was said that these highest-level NPC mercenaries had extremely high intelligence. If he got on good terms with them, he might even be able to learn some basic skills from them.
“I need you to enter the sentry tower and take turns to guard it 24 hours a day.”
“If strangers are lurking within the 20-meter area outside the prison, you are allowed to fire a warning shot. If they do not follow the warning and continue to intrude, you can directly shoot and kill them.”
“Yes, Sir!”
Fang Heng gave each of the two mercenaries a sniper rifle and told them to go to the sentry post.
“Fang Heng, I’ll go and take a look too.”
Liao Bufan was very envious. He followed them to the sentry post and wondered if he could learn some skills from them.
After watching Liao Bufan leave, Fang Heng glanced at the game log.
Soon.
There were only ten minutes left before the zombies resurrected.
…
Inside the residence remodelled by the Dawn Guild.
After the fierce battle last night, the morale of Prisoner Snake’s team was extremely low.
“Brother Snake, we sneaked a look outside the mine just now. Those zombies are still inside.”
“There’s also bad news. The residence that we built two days ago was demolished…”
The room was completely silent.
The temporary residence in the mine had been destroyed.
Two days of hard work had gone down the drain.
Even the smelting furnace and other items that the guild had spent a large sum of money on were still in the residence.
No one would feel good after hearing this news.
Prisoner Snake’s face turned even paler when he heard this.
It was over!
The Dawn Guild had invested a large amount of King of Gods’ points in the construction of the mine.
If he didn’t think of a way to regain the mine as soon as possible, the higher-ups of the guild would tear him apart when they heard the news!
“Bang!”
Prisoner Snake had nowhere to vent his anger, so he kicked the corner of the table.
“Da*n it!”
He couldn’t understand why the zombies were targetting him.
It was the same last time, and now it was happening again!
The attacks were getting stronger and stronger each time!
Why was his luck so bad?
Why was he the only one who was unlucky!
Then, he compared his predicament to the group of people in the prison. How could they occupy the prison so easily?!
Why didn’t the zombies look for them?
Suddenly, Prisoner Snake’s eyes lit up.
Got it!
Prison!
Weren’t those people very well-equipped? Weren’t the mutated zombies they encountered last night very strong?
What would happen if the two of them fought?!
As the saying goes, “If a snipe and a clam are locked in a fight, it is only to the advantage of the fisherman!”
With a single move, they would lure the mutated zombies to the prison!
The more Prisoner Snake thought about it, the more he felt that this plan was feasible!
When the time came, no matter who won or lost, he would not lose anything!
It would be best if both sides suffered losses, and he would reap the benefits by himself!
He would reap the benefits!
“Brothers, I have an idea.”
Prisoner Snake smiled sinisterly and briefly told everyone about his plan to lure the zombies to enter the prison.
When the players heard his plan, they were enlightened.
It was feasible!!
The vine zombies had high HP and strong close combat abilities, but their movement speed was still as slow as a normal zombie.
The risk of luring these zombies was not high!
“Alright, pack your equipment, and let’s set off now!”
Prisoner Snake was determined to make up for his mistakes. He made a prompt decision and led the players back to the mine once again..
