Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game Novel - Chapter 1670
1670 Research
“Tier 2? He needed to use Tier 2 crystals so soon?”
Lu Yanlong had just seen Fang Heng summon a large number of zombies and was sighing. When he suddenly heard Fang Heng ask about this, he could not help but open his mouth in surprise.
He shifted his gaze to the burning lake in the distance.
The elite mechanical mutated giant crocodile would occasionally emerge from the water and fire a few condensed flame cannons at the Lickers.
“It’s very difficult. Based on past experience, only elite-level robots like this have a chance of dropping crystals. The rest of the time, they can only be obtained by relying on the Federation’s mutant crystallization assembly device.”
Fang Heng asked in surprise, “The Federation can also produce Tier 2 mutant crystals?”
“Yes, this is also one of the reasons why the Federation can dominate the world.”
Lu Yanlong smiled bitterly.
It was not without reason that the Federation was able to monopolize most of the advanced games.
A strong research and development team was what they relied on.
“After absorbing energy, the mutant crystallization assembly device can produce Tier 1-3 mutant crystals. It’s just that the conversion rate is a little low. As long as you work hard, you can still farm them. Otherwise, leveling up after Level 30 is a luxury for ordinary players.”
“What else? Is there any other way?”
“No, otherwise, you can only try your luck in other advanced game worlds.”
The advanced game world was also divided into levels.
For example, the world they were currently in was slightly lower. Therefore, ordinary creatures would not drop mutant crystals.
Fang Heng nodded in understanding.
Because of his identity as the World Lord, he would encounter lots of trouble when he entered the advanced game world.
Fang Heng felt that things were getting a little tricky.
The elite half-mechanical mutated giant crocodiles had been hiding under the water all this time.
Fang Heng really didn’t have any good ideas about dealing with them.
Just like the previous two days, due to the existence of the elite creatures, Lu Yanlong’s efficiency in pumping water had not been very high.
Perhaps he could wait a few more days and wait for the water level to drop a little?
There was still plenty of time so there was no need to rush.
However, the problem was that after two days of consumption, the heavy beam weapons and ammunition used by the fusion Tyrant forms were somewhat out of stock.
He could still hold on for a day but he had to think of a way.
Fang Heng pondered and sat down on the spot. He took out a gray fragment from his backpack.
[Item-Unknown fragment.]
Description: Unknown fragment, unknown texture, black traces left on it, like it was left behind by an explosion.
Description: This item belongs to an unknown technology. The player has not mastered the related skill, hence he is unable to obtain more information.
The fragment was obtained in the exhibition hall last night.
Fang Heng could not obtain more information through the game prompt. He had thought of letting Qiu Yaokang investigate first. However, he quickly dispelled this thought.
He decided not to cause any trouble.
After returning Black Castle’s favor, everything was done and settled.
The only thing that surprised Fang Heng was that no one from the Black Castle showed up, regardless of whether it was inside or outside the game.
Could it be that Black Castle had encountered some trouble during the operation last night?
Fang Heng was a little worried.
If things didn’t go well, it would be troublesome if he was implicated by the Black Castle.
“Mr. Fang.”
Lu Yanlong walked over with a worried expression and said, “I just received news from the company that we might be in trouble.”
“Trouble? What?”
“Recently, the Western District Federation has received great support from the Central Federation. They have already rebuilt their camp and resisted the invasion of mutated forms for two consecutive nights.”
“After they gradually gain a foothold, the Western District Federation will send out more scouting teams. They might find out that we’re blowing up fish here. The company wants me to remind you to prepare in advance.”
“Yes…”
Fang Heng nodded and looked at the elite mutated giant crocodiles that kept poking their heads out of the water.
“I understand. Let’s stop here for today.”
As classes were temporarily suspended offline, Fang Heng decided not to go offline. He decided to return to the Zombie Apocalypse to see if Dodd’s team could find anything.
He hoped to find a way to deal with the elite giant crocodiles.
Soon, Fang Heng entered the Zombie Apocalypse through the obelisk portal.
“Fang Heng, you came at the right time. We’ve already completed the decomposition of the half-mechanical mutated form and obtained a few sets of signal data.”
“Did you find anything?”
“Yes, I’m already studying and analyzing it.”
Ever since Dodd’s team had obtained the half-mechanical mutated giant crocodile from Fang Heng, they had been conducting research overnight. Now that they had finally made progress, they came to find Fang Heng immediately.
“Come with me to the laboratory. We’ll talk in detail.”
The two of them walked towards the laboratory.
Dodd explained, “The mutated form you brought here has been mechanically modified by high-level intelligent life forms. Some kind of spatial device has been implanted in their bodies. This is also the reason why they can be teleported directly into the battlefield through the spatial prism transition technology.”
Fang Heng asked, “Can you determine the origin of the spatial prism?”
“With our current level of technology, we can’t do a reverse tracking analysis. However, the warp can break through the world boundary, so it’s possible that they didn’t come from the local world.”
Fang Heng rubbed his chin and followed Dodd into the laboratory.
In the laboratory, the dissected half-mechanical mutated giant crocodile was stored in a giant-sized glass petri dish.
Fang Heng noticed that Qiu Yao Kang was also in the room, but he didn’t observe the petri dish. Instead, he was fiddling with some machines on the experiment table with Victor.
“Genius Qiu, Victor, you’re here too?”
Qiu Yaokang looked up at Fang Heng and nodded. He continued to read the research report and said, “I heard that their research report was out, so I came over to take a look.”
Victor smiled and greeted Fang Heng, “I’m here to help too.”
Dodd smiled bitterly.
In the past, he had always led his own team alone. Other than Victor, he rarely interacted with Fang Heng’s research team.
This time, he came to Qiu Yaokang for help because of the emergency. Then, he realized how terrifying Qiu Yaokang was.
“Fang Heng, come and take a look. This is the biggest discovery of our research. Through the use of spiritual power, the spawns can carry out simple commands and control over the half-mechanical modified bodies.”
As he spoke, Dodd brought Fang Heng to the front of a petri dish.
“A special mechanical device has been implanted into the mutated giant crocodile. This device can deepen the effect of the spiritual power on mutated creatures, and it can also affect their brain regions. In the end, it can achieve the goal of completely controlling the half-mechanical modified body.”
“But we found that this method is not stable.”
Fang Heng asked with interest, “What do you mean?”
“I’m thinking that if we can figure out how the psionic power controls the mutated form, then we can interfere with them through some operations.”
“Can you do it?”
Dodd pondered for a moment and shook his head. He replied, “This is the ideal research direction. We still need more time to study it.”
