1868 Strategy
Hearing this, everyone’s expression immediately became happy, and they all hurried to move the stone.
There was hope!
As they were talking, the three players worked together to move a huge boulder away. The thick black fog seemed to have found a vent and gushed out from a small crack behind the stone!
“Retreat!”
Hearing this, everyone quickly retreated!
“Chi, chi chi…”
The black fog that leaked out from the crack instantly doubled the density of the fog in the entire cave.
The players stared at the crack and turned to look at Gu Qingzhu from time to time.
Gu Qingzhu didn’t continue to speak and continued to stare at the crack.
“Boom!!!”
With a loud explosion, a hole was blasted open in the passage that was covered by boulders!
Almost instantly, an even thicker black aura flowed out of the breach and filled the cave! Everyone’s vision was immediately covered by a thick fog.
However, it seemed that the amount of fog on the other side of the breach was not enough, and it quickly stopped leaking out.
As the black fog in the headquarters gradually dispersed, the breach was clearly revealed to the player again.
The passage to the Holy Land should have been opened.
Everyone looked at the entrance that had been broken open, their eyes filled with vigilance.
How was it?
Why was there no movement?
Where was Aktu?
Could it be that he fainted or was injured?
The players of the Mundt Gang could still remain calm, but the players from the City of Darkness could not help but whisper among themselves.
“How is it?!”
“Let’s go in and take a look…”
“Could he be injured…”
“The black fog is also dissipating. What’s going on in your holy land? Is there anyone alive who can tell us?”
Previously, the players had relied on the black fog that seeped out of the Holy Land to fight with the Federation.
Although the entrance to the holy land had been reopened, the black fog that they relied on to survive was gone.
Then what was the point of fighting?!
What happened to the last straw?
“What are you shouting for? What are you all panicking for?!”
Aktu’s loud voice resounded throughout the entire cave.
The entire cave instantly fell silent.
A sturdy figure walked out of the cave.
“Boss!”
When the members of the Mundt Gang saw Aktu walking out of the cave, they felt relieved.
The rest of the people from the City of Darkness also cast their gazes at Aktu.
Aktu was still alive!
They still had hope!
Gu Qingzhu, on the other hand, was staring intently at Aktu’s side.
Fang Heng!
Fang Heng followed Aktu, bending down as he came out from the hole.
Unlike the last time they met, Fang Heng was shrouded in a faint layer of black fog.
Gu Qingzhu nodded slightly at Fang Heng, feeling very strange.
The source of the black fog was the holy land of the Mundt Gang.
But now, the black fog had disappeared.
Was it related to Fang Heng?
What did he do inside?
Also, Fang Heng’s aura had changed greatly, making her feel very hazy.
Fang Heng seemed to be shrouded in a layer of aura that could block one’s perception.
Aktu gestured for everyone to quiet down, then stole a glance at Fang Heng from the corner of his eye.
Everything that had just happened in the holy land felt like a dream.
In short, the fact was that the large-scale magic array that the Federation had spent a lot of time and effort to set up more than ten years ago had been completely destroyed in less than an hour under the joint efforts of Fang Heng and the phantom shadow rat!
Not even a strand of hair was left!
What Aktu could not imagine was that Fang Heng had really brought the phantom shadow rat out of the game rift!
That terrifying little squirrel monster…
A faint game prompt flashed across Fang Heng’s retina.
[Hint: The player completed the current phase of the quest-Escape from the cage.]
[Hint: The player’s friendliness with the shadow phantom rat (Kikimi) has increased greatly. The player has received 50,000 King of Gods’ points.]
[Hint: The player triggered the next phase of the mission-The divided demonic seed.]
Mission description: Due to certain reasons, the power of the demonic seed Sloth has been divided. Only a portion of the power of the demonic seed Sloth is in the body of the shadow phantom rat (Kikimi). Please try to find the remaining power of the demonic seed and assist the shadow phantom rat (Kikimi) in completing the fusion with the power of Sloth.
Mission reward: King of Gods’ points, shadow phantom rat (Kikimi) friendliness, follow-up mission.
Fang Heng glanced at the shadow phantom rat that was peeking out of his neck to observe the outside world. He nodded at Aktu.
“Everyone, don’t panic. It was just a small accident. Since I’m out now, I’ll naturally help everyone escape.”
Aktu took a step forward, appearing very confident, “I’ll say one thing now. The Federation has already surrounded us outside. If we want to live, we must unite as one and listen to my arrangements! If anyone doesn’t believe me, then you can get lost now!”
The hall was eerily quiet. No one spoke. Everyone’s expression was unusually solemn.
They had all committed major crimes. If they were caught by the Federation, they would most likely be imprisoned for life.
As long as there was a glimmer of hope, they were willing to give it their all!
“What should we do? Aktu, just say it!”
“Yes.”
Aktu calmed down a little and quickly explained the plan he had discussed with Fang Heng.
When everyone heard this, their eyes revealed a puzzled expression.
What did he mean? Surrender?
Surrender to the Federation?
Would this work?
“I know you have a lot of questions. Now that the Holy Court has brought people in, I don’t have time to explain to you in detail. Either we follow the plan or we’re all finished!”
Everyone thought about it and no longer hesitated. They followed suit and took action.
Aktu took a deep breath.
Although he pretended to be calm in front of outsiders, his heart was also very empty.
“Fang Heng, there’s no problem right?”
“No problem.”
Fang Heng nodded slightly. He looked at Gu Qingzhu and Fana and nodded at them, “You did well just now. Don’t worry. I’m confident this time. Get ready to move.”
…
Inside the encampment of the Mundt Gang, Oracle Autolia was leading the team slowly toward the headquarters of the Mundt Gang.
The holy power fluctuations that bloomed dispersed the black fog that had a polluted aura.
In order to prevent any accidents from happening, this team moved very slowly.
Right now, they were most worried about the game rift.
It was the demonic seed.
Once this demonic seed’s contamination spread, the entire world might be reduced to ruins.
The higher-ups had given a death order. This kind of thing was not allowed to happen!
The team had only traveled for about ten minutes when the thick black fog erupted again in the direction of the entrance to the headquarters of the Mundt Gang!
Everyone’s faces darkened.
The situation appeared getting worse.
Oracle Autolia stared ahead and raised her hand to signal this team to stop.
The black fog that erupted for this second time appeared filled with pollution. The pollution quickly fused with the black fog outside and spread.
