Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 2422 Resurrection

2422  Resurrection

Fang Heng frowned and quickly moved forward, teaming up with Tan Shuo to knock down the invaders. He and Tan Shuo exchanged a quick glance and rapidly fell back into the group of skeletons.

"This kid, he was always like this before—impulsive and overconfident," Tan Shuo muttered quietly, then suddenly noticed something and said, "Huh? Why hasn't the mission hint changed?"

"Yeah, there's no indication of death or failure," Fang Heng replied, also puzzled.

The mission instructions didn't show any failure description, which meant the mission was still ongoing.

It might be a team-type mission, which could continue even if a team member was lost.

"A team-type mission means losing one teammate won't have a huge impact. Right now, it feels more like a possession situation. I believe Li Shaoqiang himself is fine. We only need one more kill. Let's hurry and finish the mission first."

"Okay."

Fang Heng and Tan Shuo discussed and decided to hunt down the last one to complete the mission quickly.

The two of them focused their attention on the slowly advancing invader team, carefully searching for their prey.

After the recent lesson from Li Shaoqiang's 'death,' they had to be extra cautious.

Hmm?

At that moment, Fang Heng sensed something and looked back.

He saw a mausoleum skeleton guard walking slowly toward their position and stopping not far behind them.

Fang Heng watched the skeleton and slowly raised his long blade.

The blue light in the skeleton's eye sockets flickered frequently.

"Hey! Mr. Fang! Guess what? I've revived again."

"Li Shaoqiang?"

Fang Heng glanced at Tan Shuo beside him, feeling puzzled.

So, the skeletons can fight using possession and revive even after death?

At first, Fang Heng thought the mission was too difficult.

But if unlimited revival is possible, the mission's difficulty is reduced.

They didn't need to be as cautious as before.

Fang Heng and Tan Shuo both found it a bit odd.

The actual mission difficulty and the SSS-level difficulty and special warnings in the mission hint seemed mismatched.

It made them feel like there might be some hidden traps.

But for now, they couldn't pinpoint where the traps might be.

"Don't get too cocky," Tan Shuo advised, feeling that caution was still necessary. "Revival might have limitations, so be careful and try not to waste opportunities."

"Don't worry, I understand."

It was unclear if Li Shaoqiang really took the advice to heart, but he continued to search for weaker targets within the advancing invader team.

"Let's go, go, go. That one over there looks pretty weak."

The three of them quickly pursued and eliminated the last invader needed for the mission.

The game hints appeared in their retinas.

[Hint: Players have completed the team mission-Death Knight's Selection.]

[Hint: Players can now choose to leave the mission environment. Since Fang Heng is the team captain, the decision to leave the mission environment is up to him.]

"Leave."

Fang Heng looked at the game hint slowly falling and thought to himself.

In the next moment, the world in front of him slowly collapsed like sand.

.....

When consciousness returned, Fang Heng found himself once again in the death knight space.

Looking up, the death knight was watching them.

"Very well, I have seen everything you have done. You have successfully passed the initial trial. As I said, the Empress is never stingy with her rewards..."

As the death knight spoke, he slowly raised his right hand.

"This is the power you sought."

As he spoke, several large doors adorned with dark patterns slowly appeared around them.

"Ka!"

The doors revealed a crack and then slowly opened.

A tangible and powerful undead aura energy spilled out from the doors!

It was several times purer than the elite-level undead aura energy they had encountered before!

Tan Shuo and Li Shaoqiang immediately showed expressions of delight.

Fang Heng's eyes also revealed a hint of astonishment.

Such a high reward?

The death knight, sitting on his throne, continued to watch them with an expressionless face, "Aren't you going to start? This is the Empress's reward for you. Please, make use of it."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Li Shaoqiang said and was about to begin absorbing the undead aura energy.

"Wait!"

Fang Heng stopped Li Shaoqiang, shaking his head, saying, "Hold on a moment."

Li Shaoqiang was momentarily taken aback and quickly stopped.

"What? Is there a problem?"

Li Shaoqiang was certainly convinced by Fang Heng, but could there be some trick to this?

"Hmm, wait a moment. I'll test it first."

Fang Heng closed his eyes and tried to absorb a bit of the undead aura energy.

Sure enough!

As before, the undead aura energy contained a chilling, bone-piercing aura.

From this, it could be inferred that the residual undead aura energy left in the death knight space might be from a previous mission participant.

Fang Heng opened his eyes again and looked at the death knight.

So, this mission still had a trap.

Was it intentional by the death knight?

Never mind that!

Anyway, he had the Shrine of Bones, which could purify most of the aura.

Fang Heng didn't hesitate and, with a thought, the Shrine of Bones appeared in front of him.

"Whoosh!!"

Seeing the Shrine of Bones, Li Shaoqiang and Tan Shuo were immediately taken aback and cast puzzled looks at Fang Heng.

What's going on?

"There's a cold aura in the undead aura energy. The Shrine of Bones can purify some of it. Don't rush to absorb it; wait for me."

Fang Heng said, forming an imprint with his hands in front of him.

"Whoosh!!"

The Shrine of Bones was activated.

The undead aura energy pouring out from the doors quickly gathered towards the Shrine of Bones, forming a black vortex on the shrine in an instant!

Tan Shuo and Li Shaoqiang exchanged glances and, with caution, closed their eyes to try to absorb a bit of the undead aura.

Upon trying, they were immediately startled, feeling a chilling aura surging into their bodies!

Wow!

So severe?

The two of them opened their eyes, showing signs of apprehension, and couldn't help but look up at the death knight.

The death knight remained seated on his throne, expressionless, and made no move to stop them, just watching coldly.

"Whew..."

Li Shaoqiang shrugged.

He couldn't figure it out after thinking for a while, so he decided to just go with it. After all, with Mr. Fang around, it was the same as before—sticking close to Mr. Fang would ensure they'd get their share, even if they had to settle for the leftovers.

After several rounds of conversion through the Shrine of Bones, the chilling aura in the undead aura energy was greatly reduced, to a level that a normal necromancy scholar could absorb.

"It's good now. You can start absorbing,"

Fang Heng said, continuing to maintain the purification of the Shrine of Bones while also beginning to absorb the experience points from the undead aura energy conversion.
