Fang Heng raised his head and asked Chen Yu.
“The federation’s elite teams are all equipped with pistols, right?”
“Uh, not all of them. Pistols are still very rare in the game at this stage. We only have 12 people equipped with them, and each person only has 15 bullets.”
“That’s enough. I have a plan. I’ll have to trouble your team to do something for me this afternoon.”
What? A plan?
A plan to get the magnetic card?
Fang Heng leaned over and whispered into Chen Yu’s ear, “Help me move the logs later.”
Move the logs?
Chen Yu looked at Fang Heng with a baffled expression.
What did the plan to kill the Lickers and move the logs have in common?
He felt that Fang Heng’s train of thought was a little too out of the ordinary.
“Yes, move the logs first. Also, you’ll need a little bit of skill when you move them.”
As Fang Heng spoke, he took out a pen and paper and quickly drew a sketch on the paper in front of Chen Yu.
“How about this? Try to see if you can arrange the logs into such a shape. Then, use your imagination to think about it. Make sure that these few positions are as empty as possible.”
Looking at the rough sketch that Fang Heng drew on the paper, Chen Yu was even more confused.
“Boss, are you…”
“Building a maze to play in?”
“Chen Yu.” Fang Heng patted Chen Yu’s shoulder to show his encouragement. “I believe in your ability. You can definitely do it.”
…
Lickers were the strongest among the Tier 2 mutated zombies!
They were the strongest!
Their agility attribute was extremely high, their dodging ability was extremely strong and their physical defense was abnormally tough.
The most troublesome thing was that they also liked to appear in groups!
Even in the later stages of the game, when players encountered Lickers, they would run as fast as they could.
If they really couldn’t run away, they would use their powerful long-range firepower to suppress them.
In order to completely destroy the Lickers in Prison No. 1, Fang Heng felt that the best way was probably to burn the building or directly blow it up.
However, if he did that, the magnetic card in the building would be destroyed and the mission would fail.
Therefore, he had to change his tactics.
Relying on the federation’s toolmen alone wasn’t enough.
Fang Heng already had a rough plan.
While Chen Yu was leading the federal team to move logs on the empty ground of the prison, he drove his truck to the camp of the Dark Knights next to a valley.
A wooden hut was built at the foot of the valley.
There was a sign hanging outside the wooden hut.
“Apocalypse Bar”
Although it was said to be a camp, it was actually just a wooden hut that had been converted into a bar.
Fang Heng walked into the wooden hut.
Inside the wooden hut, two or three NPC survivors were sitting around a table and discussing something in a low voice.
When they saw Fang Heng enter, they stopped in unison.
Behind the bar stood a tall, scantily dressed young woman.
Her exposed tan skin and curvy figure made Fang Heng look at her twice.
“Fang Heng? You’re the newcomer who’s been in the limelight recently.”
Katarina took the initiative to wave at Fang Heng.
She poured a glass of wine and pushed it towards Fang Heng.
“Nice to meet you. I’m the person-in-charge here, Katarina. This is to celebrate our first meeting. This glass is on me.”
“Thank you.”
Fang Heng walked to the bar counter.
“Let me guess, you’re here to receive a mission?”
Katarina moved her face in front of Fang Heng and winked at him.
“I have a lot of busy missions here. I was ranked bottom for the assessment for the previous two months. You should be able to help me, right?”
“Show me your mission. If it’s convenient…”
Katarina waved her hand, and a list of missions appeared in front of Fang Heng.
Mission 1: Clear The Tier 2 zombies.
Difficulty: SS.
Reward: Dark Knights’ honor points.
Mission 2: Explore the Meteorite Company’s branch in the city.
Difficulty: SSS.
Reward: Dark Knights’ merit points.
Mission 3: Search for clues related to the Meteorite Company’s ‘biological weapons’ project (which can trigger subsequent missions).
Difficulty: SSS.
Reward: Dark Knights’ merit points.
Mission 4: Protect important members of the Dark Knights.
Difficulty: SSS
Reward: Dark Knights’ merit points.
Mission 4: Search for dangerous personnel-head of security of Meteorite Company.
Difficulty: SSS.
Reward: Dark Knights’ merit points.
Task 5: Analysis of Alex’s live samples…
Fang Heng looked at the densely packed mission pane and was greatly surprised.
The Dark Knights’ missions and the apocalypse merchant camp’s missions were of two extremes.
The lowest difficulty of the Dark Knights’ mission was already SS-level.
No wonder the Dark Knights’ entry criterion was so difficult.
Fang Heng thought to himself.
Katarina’s beautiful eyes looked at Fang Heng. “How is it? Is there a mission that you’re interested in?”
“What a coincidence. I’m going to kill the Licker later.”
Fang Heng conveniently received the mission to collect the Tier 2 zombie samples and the Licker research mission.
[Hint: You’ve accepted the mission-clear the Tier 2 zombies.]
[Hint: You’ve accepted the mission-Licker research.]
Mission name: Clear out the Tier 2 zombies.
Difficulty: SS.
Mission requirements: Clear out at least 100 Tier 2 mutated zombies.
Mission time limit: 72 hours.
Mission name: Licker research.
Difficulty: SSS.
Mission requirements: Obtain samples of the Licker within the stipulated time limit (able to exceed mission completion.)
Mission time limit: 72 hours.
“You have 72 hours to complete the mission, good luck.”
“There’s one more thing, my survival camp is in trouble, I need to temporarily recruit a Dark Knights’ helper.”
“Of course you can, your current honor level is Level 7, you can use honor points to temporarily recruit.”
“In addition, a Dark Knight elite mercenary can provide you with 24-hour help, if they unfortunately die in the process of the mission you will pay a large amount of compensation.”
Fang Heng looked at the price list given by Katarina.
Temporarily recruiting a Dark Knight elite mercenary for 24 hours requires 300 honor points.
If it was equipped with a full set of weapons, it would cost a full 1000 honor points!
Moreover, during the temporary recruitment process, the mercenaries’ weapons and ammunition consumption would further deplete the player’s survival points.
The money for the ammunition was also on Fang Heng.
What a waste of money!
Fang Heng calculated for a moment. He had previously completed the related missions in Hope Town by an additional 41 times, and only then did he obtain 41,000 honor points.
“I need to recruit 20 fully armed Dark Knights’ elites.”
“Oh? Looks like you’re preparing to do a big deal. I wish you good luck.”
Katarina was surprised, and then her smile became even brighter.
[Hint: Your friendship with Katarina has increased.]
“Handsome, you have brought me a big deal. I will give you an extra discount for the damage of weapons…”
“When do you want them to gather at your shelter? We need some time to communicate, so we need at least three hours to gather.”
“You can also set up other gathering points. If they are too far away, the gathering time will become normal.”
“No need. Tomorrow morning, at eight o’clock.”
“No problem.. They will report to your shelter on time.”
