Chapter 375: Meteorite

Ten minutes later.

The zombie team dug down about one meter.

Just then, a dull knocking sound echoed.

Fang Heng was alerted and stood up to look at the dug floor.

Beneath was a dark black layer of lead.

“It’s lead! Lead effectively blocks radiation! The first-generation meteorite must be there, like I thought! ”

Fang Heng felt a lot more at ease and continued to control the zombies to continue digging downward.

…

For a full 40 minutes, the zombies dug away while Fang Heng controlled the Lickers to play guerrilla with Su Jincheng and the Night Owl players.

Two game hints quickly flashed across Fang Heng’s vision.

“Hint: you are currently exposed to a special radiation environment. As your physique is higher than 30 points, you are immune to the current radiation damage. ”

“Hint: after being exposed to radiation for a long time, the radiation damage will gradually increase. ”

“Is it done? ” Fang Heng stood up and walked to the hole dug by the zombie team. He stuck his head out and looked down.

It was very dark down there, so the night vision effect of the vampires was not obvious. Fang Heng could only roughly tell that there was an empty hall down there.

Fang Heng did not want to waste time, so he commanded the two zombie clones to jump down first.

Not sensing any danger, Fang Heng jumped down as well.

…

Thud!

As soon as they landed, Fang Heng immediately smelled a thick, bloody smell.

Then, the sensor light in the hall lit up, illuminating the entire hall.

Fang Heng’s pupils constricted immediately.

In the center of the room, a red meteorite that was almost as tall as a person was soaked in blood, facing Fang Heng.

Why is the first-generation meteorite soaked in blood? ” Fang Heng thought as he carefully looked around.

The entire hall was empty aside from a pool with a radius of about five meters in the middle.

The pool was filled with dark red blood, with two-thirds of the first-generation meteorite submerged in it.

The scene in front of Fang Heng was a strange one.

He carefully walked forward.

Standing beside the blood pool, Fang Heng reached out his hand and touched the meteorite.

“Hint: you have found an item: first-generation meteorite. ”

“Item: first-generation meteorite. ”

“Description: a meteorite from an unknown source. Meteorite Company is rumored to have extracted the first-generation virus from the first-generation meteorite. This item is too big to fit in a backpack. It is a special mission item. ”

“Hint: it has been detected that you possess the special talent Basic Occult (level 2) . You can use this skill to conduct occult analysis on the first-generation meteorite. ”

The game hints that appeared made Fang Heng quickly withdraw his hand.

“What a suggestion. ” Fang Heng was aware of the risks associated with occult analysis.

Occult analysis was often accompanied by extremely destructive power. It could potentially destroy the analytical product.

Fang Heng was not about to risk occult analysis ruining the first-generation meteorite he painstakingly found.

Retracting his hand, Fang Heng lowered his head to ponder.

“I’ve found the first-generation meteorite, but how do I bring it back? It’s so huge. Also, why is it being soaked in blood? ”

The mysterious setup seemed related to the vampires.

“Will there be serious consequences if I rashly take the meteorite out of the blood pool? ”

For a moment, Fang Heng was a little hesitant.

“Should I just directly smash the meteorite and bring back a small piece of it to complete the mission? ” he thought.

After all, the mission did not specify the size of the meteorite required.

However, the first-generation meteorite was very hard. It would not be so easy to break it open, so he needed to find some handy tools.

While he was thinking, a game hint surfaced on Fang Heng’s retina.

“Hint: Your Licker clone has been attacked and successfully triggered its dodging ability. ”

“Hint: Your Licker clone has been attacked, resulting in a severed limb. ”

“Hint: Your Licker clone has been attacked. Its HP has reduced to 5%. Automatically triggering the skill to strengthen the body… ”

Fang Heng was bewildered.

The trashy players from the Night Owl organization left in the research institute would definitely not be able to cause such great damage to the Lickers.

Fang Heng raised his eyebrows, realizing that something must have gone wrong in the third basement.

He had to go back and take a look first!

Fang Heng controlled the Lickers to temporarily hide in the ventilation duct before taking the elevator back to the third basement.

The moment the elevator door opened, Fang Heng was met with a few vampires standing in the passage.

After discovering that Fang Heng was of the same race, they shifted their gazes away from Fang Heng.

“Vampires? They joined the battle, too? ” Fang Heng’s heart sank.

The vampires had entered the battlefield via a different passage. They took the time passage to District 5.

In order to avoid getting hated by the vampires, Fang Heng previously deliberately avoided them when controlling the Lickers.

Currently, there were many low-level vampires gathered in the passage to guard it.

Fang Heng returned to the control center hall by walking along the main passage.

In the control center hall, dozens of vampires stood around the edge of the hall’s wall.

Parason was still knocking on the command station, befuddled.

After Sikong Mao left, the entire research institute became a mess. It was so chaotic that nobody noticed what happened in the sixth basement.

Fang Heng walked to Parason’s side and asked in a low voice, “What’s with these vampires? ”

“I don’t know. ” Parason was also a little confused. He wiped the sweat on his forehead and said, “We were fighting with the Lickers, and then a group of vampires came to support us. ”

Parason looked to the right and said in a low voice, “The white-haired old man seems to be the leader. ”

Fang Heng looked at the spot where Parason was looking at.

Su Jincheng was talking to an old vampire, who held a purple cane. The vampire’s face was full of wrinkles, and his hair was gray.

Parason nudged Fang Heng and asked anxiously, “How is the stabilizer? ”

“It’s temporarily repaired. I estimate that it can last another seven to eight hours. To completely repair the stabilizer, we need more crystallization crystals to make a new converter. ”

“I’ve talked to Su Jincheng. Later, he’ll go to the storage room with you. There are still a lot of evolution crystals in reserve there. If you need any materials, just take them. ”

As they spoke, Su Jincheng and the old vampire finished their conversation.

The former walked back to the two of them.

“What’s the situation? What did they say? ”

“That person claimed to be the elder of vampires, Dai Ze. He and Emilia don’t belong to the same clan. ”

Su Jincheng held his throbbing head.

“There will be a batch of very important materials sent over later. This group of vampires will look after them personally. ”

Fang Heng was a little surprised.

“Important materials? As in, raw blue crystal ores? ” he thought.

“They’re here. ”

Outside the main control room, the vampires opened a path. Seven or eight blood slaves laboriously moved a large box into the teleportation passage.

The elder of the vampires, Dai Ze, stood at the time passage entrance and watched the blood slaves move the materials expressionlessly.

Fang Heng thought it was strange that the vampires did not guard as heavily as when they previously transported raw blue crystal ores.

“Could it be some other more valuable materials and resources? ” he wondered.

A steady stream of blood slaves slowly moved the boxes into the hall.

“Let’s ignore them. Mr. Sikong wants us to heed the vampires’ arrangements. ”

Su Jincheng was a little unhappy. “It’s better now that we have them to help guard the passage entrance. We don’t need to worry about those troublesome Lickers. We just need to maintain the operation of the stabilizer. Fang Shuo, I’ll take you to the storage room. ”
