Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game Novel - Chapter 2225
Chapter 2225 Information
After testing, the physical fitness of the vampire-converted psychic scholars saw a massive improvement.
….
It could be considered a qualitative change.
After subsequent psychic mental honing, the majority experienced a several-fold increase in abilities!
Due to the sudden and drastic enhancement, it directly led to the Federation’s psychic warriors being equipped with outdated gear, necessitating reconfiguration and manufacturing.
According to the Federation’s evaluations, once all personnel were properly equipped, the combat strength of human psychic warriors could reach about half the level of ordinary spawns.
It was already beyond anticipated intensity!
However, from Fang Heng’s perspective, converting vampires was also a very resource-intensive task for the vampire princes.
Under normal circumstances, converting three individuals a day was about the limit.
Even lower-level duke vampires could convert humans, but the post-conversion increase in basic attributes was only about one-third to one-seventh that of princes.
The difference was significant.
After discussions, the Federation decided it was best first to establish a group of elite teams to ensure top combat strength.
So, after expending their origin power, four vampire princes sequentially converted a total of one hundred elite psychic scholars selected by the Federation within five days.
Afterward, the exhausted vampire princes retreated to the Vampire King’s Coffin for temporary rest.
The Federation was unaware that the converted psychic scholars, while physically indistinguishable from humans, had become vampires themselves.
The world of the vampires had strict tiers.
Players could resist the suppression brought by bloodlines and challenge those above them.
However, NPCs found it difficult to do so.
Perhaps one day, if there were conflicts between the Federation and Fang Heng, these converted vampires might directly rebel.
The Federation was unaware of this possibility as they believed cooperation with Fang Heng was still reliable.
With Ji Haiting’s help, many of the collaborations with Fang Heng became very smooth.
“Good, we’re ready to assist whenever needed.”
“There’s another matter for this visit.”
Minister Ray handed a file to Fang Heng, saying, “We had compiled a report on the recent appearances of the tree spirit clan in certain areas. There were significant signs of tree spirit activity in these regions. Additionally, there were multiple reports of attacks in various Federation sectors. After integrating the reports, we did find significant anomalies in some regions. This is the report we compiled.”
“We’re preparing for a small-scale exploratory operation against the tree spirits in the near future. Targets will be selected within the highlighted areas. I’ve already obtained approval from my superiors. We’ll formally test the comprehensive capabilities of the psychic transformation team in combat, which will serve as an official field test.”
Minister Ray’s expression turned solemn as he stood up and continued, “Dr. Fang, on behalf of the Federation, I invite you to participate in directing this operation.”
Before coming, the Federation had already agreed to support the development of psychic warriors fully. However, some members of parliament were still wavering to some extent. If they could demonstrate the results of transforming psychic warriors, it would solidify their resolve and save a lot of trouble.
“So, the tree spirits seem to be quite active recently…”
Fang Heng took the report handed to him by the soldier and carefully examined it.
It was strange. It didn’t match his expectations.
He had assumed that the recent tasks of the tree spirits were primarily focused on nurturing the sacred trees, with more inter-tribal conflicts among themselves.
Now, it seemed that within the ‘Inner World,’ the tree spirits were all doing fine, but there were various attacks by tree spirits in the human world.
Moreover, the locations of the attacks on humans were quite scattered.
It was perplexing.
What did the tree spirits want?
It was strange. What were the tree spirits up to?
Weren’t they supposed to focus on nurturing sacred trees? Why were they constantly attacking human domains?
The information in the file made Fang Heng feel increasingly uneasy.
The Federation also found it strange and, for the time being, couldn’t figure out the purpose of the tree spirit clan. So, they dispatched a team to investigate, but there had been no progress so far.
Combined with the Federation’s own inadequate strength and the fact that most of the spatial transmission network was paralyzed, they were mostly on the defensive when attacked by the tree spirits, constantly in a weak position.
The significant enhancement of the psychic transformation team gave them hope.
The Federation was preparing to attempt a small-scale counteroffensive to gauge the effectiveness of the psychic transformation team in actual combat.
“At present, we’ve prepared several pre-selected operational targets. These areas are all under the control of the rebel forces of the Tree Whisperers Alliance,” Minister Ray said as he marked several circles on the map displayed on the research institute’s big screen. “We’ve been maintaining restraint until now, and we’ve never actively explored areas after they’ve been occupied. Now it’s time to make some counterattacks.”
[Hint: The player has obtained relevant information. The player has completed the mission-The movements of the Wood tribe.]
[Hint: The player can submit the “Federation Data Collection” to the Leaf tribe in exchange for mission rewards.]
[Hint: The player can also further explore some of the locations in the document or try to obtain more information to increase the mission reward.]
Fang Heng glanced down, then reexamined the map, focusing on the circled areas and the small annotations beside them.
The towns occupied by the Tree Whisperers Alliance were distributed across the map.
At first glance, they didn’t seem to have any special connection.
They were just closer to the primeval forest.
“Are you prepared? Where do you lean towards striking?”
“This is what we came to discuss this time. We want to choose one of these five areas.”
Fang Heng looked at the map and pointed to one of the towns, “How about this one?”
“Alright, that works,” Minister Ray nodded, looking at Fang Heng. Then he asked, “Any reason for choosing it?”
“The Wood tribe occupies that area, and I heard they’re somewhat easier to deal with.”
For the Federation, there wasn’t much difference between the five selected backup locations. So they simply followed Fang Heng’s suggestion.
“Good, then it’s settled. Let’s make arrangements.”
Fang Heng pondered for a moment, then asked, “When do we start?”
“Tomorrow, at 2 a.m.”
Fang Heng glanced at the time. It was already 8 p.m. Just six hours away.
Fang Heng reminded, “During this time, the strength of the tree spirit clan has increased rapidly. We need to be extra careful.”
“We know, that’s why this operation is a joint effort. We’ve made thorough preparations, and we have insiders in the Tree Whisperers Alliance. They’ve confirmed that there aren’t many tree spirit guards in the town, and the internal defenses are very sparse.”
“Alright, then I’ll go with you to take a look.”
“Go in person?”
Minister Ray frowned.
Initially, he just wanted to command remotely with Fang Heng. After all, personally approaching the combat zone was very dangerous.
Fang Heng was crucial now, as it related to the upgrade of the entire Federation psychic corps.
After considering, Minister Ray suggested, “Shouldn’t we reconsider? Going there in person might be dangerous.”
“It’s fine,” Fang Heng waved his hand. “I’ve had contact with the tree spirit clan before, and I can defend myself.”
Seeing Fang Heng’s insistence, Minister Ray didn’t insist further, nodding, “Alright, we’ll try our best to ensure your safety.”
