Chapter 287 New Activity

After the researchers left, Fang Heng hurriedly asked, “A Licker that can fuse with a vine zombie? Can that be done?”

The Licker’s predatory ability, coupled with the vine zombie’s strong defensive ability…

Wouldn’t that mean there would be no shortcomings!

“There are still a few challenges that need to be overcome. The problem isn’t too big. We can use this opportunity to train these students. They are still too inexperienced. There are only a few that are of some use.”

Fang Heng opened his mouth.

He felt that Qiu Yaokang’s expectations were too high.

Probably only an A-level researcher was competent enough for him.

“Let’s begin. How many Lickers are you going to transform this time?”

Fang Heng rubbed his hands.

“Let’s make it a whole number! We will start with fifty Lickers first.”

(Hint: Current book-“Occult Guide” reading progress 6.22%.]

After reading every day, Fang Heng stretched his body and was ready to find something to eat.

Just as he left the study, his cell phone rang.

“Deng Xin?”

Seeing the name on the caller ID, Fang Heng was a little surprised.

He wondered if Deng Xin’s luck had always been bad.

Twice in a row, after she received Old Black’s mission, she happened to meet Fang Heng who sabotaged her mission.

The last time, Deng Xin followed Fang Heng to the quarantine zone for a mission. After that, she wisely chose to join Fang Heng’s work studio and sign a contract.

Recently, Fang Heng had not paid much attention to Deng Xin. He had almost forgotten about her.

He did not expect Deng Xin to suddenly take the initiative to contact him.

“Fang Heng, Old Black has contacted me!”

“Huh?”

Fang Heng raised his eyebrows and his curiosity was immediately piqued.

Old Black!

Didn’t Night Owl already cut off all the main storyline missions in Server 8?

In theory, their goal had already been achieved.

What’s the next step?

“What’s the matter? Tell me in detail.”

When she initially decided to work with Fang Heng, Deng Xin was still apprehensive.

Although she had signed a contract with Fang Heng’s gaming company, it was still possible for her to hide it if she wanted to.

After some thought, Deng Xin and the team discussed for a while and everyone unanimously decided to be on Fang Heng’s side.

Recently, with the popularity of the prison faction on the internet, Deng Xin was even more determined about this idea.

On one side, there was the dangerous character, Old Black, who was related to the anti-federation forces; and on the other side was the popular and promising Fang Heng.

Even a fool would know which side to choose!

“The specific target of the mission is still unclear. Twenty hours ago, I received an invitation from Old Black and immediately went to the target location to gather. I wanted to contact you at that time, but I couldn’t get in touch.”

“I’m now in a transport van. It wasn’t easy for me to find an opportunity to secretly go offline and call you.”

Fang Heng asked, “Hmm, what else do you know?”

“Old Black didn’t reveal any information related to the mission.”

“I only heard that Old Black has been secretly recruiting a group of people recently. We’re not the only team in the black market that accepted his invitation.”

“As usual, Old Black requested that the entire mission be kept secret.”

Deng Xin was worried that Fang Heng didn’t trust her, so she explained, “Old Black has always been very careful. He’s always been like this. He only tells us the mission information at the end.”

“What’s the specific location of the mission?”

“I’m now in the Gobi District (2813, 9982). I’ve secretly asked the driver about it before. It’s about an hour away.”

Deng Xin reported the coordinates to Fang Heng.

“Old Black is very steady. Once we accept the mission, we’re not allowed to go offline during the period. We’ll stay in the game by drinking coffee until the whole mission is over. I can’t go offline for too long in case I get discovered.”

“Okay, I will rush over now.” Fang Heng lowered his head and thought for a while, then said, “Everything will be as usual for now. When the time comes, I will contact you through the in-game survival radio.”

“Okay, be careful.”

After hanging up the phone, Fang Heng immediately thought of the text message he received from Old Black not long ago.

He did not quite understand the meaning of the text message, but one thing was certain.

Night Owl organization was preparing to play some tricks again.

The matter of the first-generation meteorite had been set up by Night Owl, causing the main storyline mission to be temporarily frozen. Fang Heng had been feeling dispirited because of this.

He would need to create some trouble for them!

It would be best if he could reap some benefits along the way.

Fang Heng decided to go over personally to take a look.

After making up his mind, Fang Heng immediately returned to the game.

Through the teleportation passage, Fang Heng arrived at the Dark Knights’ contact point closest to Deng Xin’s coordinates. A barren desert region.

In the game, survival in the desert region was relatively difficult. Perhaps to balance the difficulty of the game, a cactus plant could often be seen in the desert.

The juice of the plant could provide sufficient water.

However, food was scarce.

Hence, the desert was considered a beginner’s death zone by the player.

Fang Heng rented a motorcycle from the Dark Knights’ contact point and rushed along the desert road to the coordinates.

Halfway there, Fang Heng noticed a military truck speeding past him.

He looked up and saw two black shadows in the distance.

It was a large sentry tower!

The height of the sentry tower was about 15 meters tall. At this stage, very few player shelters could build such a high-level sentry tower. Was it an NPC?

Or perhaps…

The Federation!

Fang Heng opened the built-in map to check.

That’s right, not far away in the desert region, there was a large-scale shelter built by the Federation!

It had been more than a month since the game started.

The Federation mobilized all sorts of resources and completed the construction of the first batch of shelters in the server of District 8. There were a total of five shelters, which were located in various corners of the game world.

There were good and bad things about building a shelter in the desert region.

The good thing was that the vision of the desert region was clear. If they were attacked by the enemy, they could be discovered and dealt with early. In addition, it was easier to mine oil shale and other fuel resources in the desert.

The troublesome part was obtaining food.

Fang Heng rode his motorcycle on the road before the Federation’s large-scale shelter.

A few Federation players looked at Fang Heng warily.

At this stage, the Federation’s shelter was not open to ordinary players. Many of the people living in it were relatives of the Federation’s higher-ups.

Therefore, the establishment of the shelter was exceptionally strong.

The area near the shelter was also guarded by the Federation soldiers. Any player who approached it would be dismissed.

Fang Heng observed the situation briefly and rode his motorcycle away quickly.

On the way, Fang Heng received a message from Deng Xin’s survival radio.

Deng Xin: “We’re here. The coordinates for the Gobi District (2789, 9910).”

The map showed that the gathering place where Deng Xin and the others were was about three kilometres away from the Federation shelter.

So close?

Old Black couldn’t be planning to attack the Federation’s shelter, right?

Fang Heng pondered in his heart.

He felt that it would be a bit difficult to rely on Old Black’s hired men to fight against the Federation’s shelter.

They most likely had other plans!

It would be too conspicuous to make any movements during the day. If they were discovered, they would be in trouble.

Fang Heng stopped his motorcycle and rested by the side of the road.

When the sun was setting and the sky was completely dark, he got up and left the road, heading towards the coordinate point area.
