Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game Novel - Chapter 988

988 Split Up

Not only that but even the curse in his body was completely suppressed!

At the Marquis tier, the effects of the curse punishment that the vampires faced were not obvious.

Even so, after the curse in his body was temporarily suppressed, Maica felt more relaxed than ever!

To remove the curse and tier up, other than the Vampire King, who else could have achieved these two things?

!!
Maica was now 100% sure that Fang Heng was the Vampire King’s successor!

There was no mistake about this!

“You’ve completed your advancement?” Fang Heng was also very surprised.

He could feel Maica’s strength had increased by a lot, so he kept his eyes on the latter.

The fruit’s effect was actually this strong?

“Yes, Your Majesty. Not only that, but the curse in my body has also been temporarily suppressed,” Maica said and tried to sense it, “I just don’t know how long the suppression effect will last.”

“I see,” Fang Heng nodded and reached out to pick the other fully grown fruit from the sapling.

So the two additional effects of the fruit were temporary curse suppression and ability enhancement?

A vampire Marquis could temporarily suppress the curse and even become a Duke after taking an unripe fruit.

What about the Prince?

Fang Heng couldn’t help but feel excited. He looked at Maica and said in a low voice, “Let’s go and find Joel!”

“Yes! Your Majesty!” Maica’s face turned serious. He stood up immediately and rushed towards where Joel was with Fang Heng.

Fang Heng and Maica dashed forward side by side. He thought for a moment and asked, “Maica, I have another question.”

“Your Majesty, please speak.”

“Where’s Jian Muzhi? Why haven’t we seen him? What is he doing?”

“Sigh,” Maica sighed, “After we repelled the Federation’s pursuers, the remaining vampires followed Mr. Jian to the cave. Mr. Jian set up a special coffin in the cave to perfectly merge with the King’s remains.”

Maica couldn’t help but glance at Fang Heng as he said this, “According to Mr. Jian, the fusion of the King’s remains requires a large amount of blood marrow. It wasn’t that difficult at first, but the vampires failed to invade the real world and Mr. Jian thus lost the ability to return to the game world.”

Oh… So he was to blame for this too, huh?

Fang Heng thought for a while and found that that was indeed the case. After all, not everyone could travel between the game and the real world as conveniently as he did.

“So, Mr. Jian hoped to collect the blood marrow with the help of the Federation. However, the Federation agreed on the surface but delayed it in secret. Later, Mr. Jian got the news that the Federation might not be able to withstand the pressure from the outside world and wanted to harm him to seize the King’s remains.”

“As such, Mr. Jian went all out. He modified the magic array in the cave and set up a trap to lure the Federation into the cave. He hoped to use the power of the magic array in the cave to deal with the Federation. He wanted to absorb the blood and condense the blood marrow as soon as possible so that his body could completely merge with the Vampire King’s remains.”

Fang Heng couldn’t help sighing after listening to Maica’s account of the whole incident.

“So that’s how it is. The cave is a trap. Jian Muzhi used himself as bait. Isn’t he afraid that things go out of control?”

Jian Muzhi was really ruthless. To think he plunged headfirst into danger for that sliver of hope.

Needless to say, if he had not been called over by Zhong Haoyang, Jian Muzhi might have really succeeded.

However, if it were Fang Heng, he would most likely find a place to hide. After all, Fang Heng was afraid of death.

Blood marrow and everything else could be taken slowly, why did he have to work so hard?

“Jian Muzhi is still in slumber?”

“It should be,” Maica looked at Fang Heng as he spoke.

He suddenly recalled that Fang Heng had restored the magic array and extracted the remaining energy from it…

With this, the three central magic arrays would not be able to continue to form blood marrow for Jian Muzhi in a short time.

Jian Muzhi had unknowingly been cheated by the King again.

Maica was very convinced of Fang Heng’s abilities, “Your Majesty, is this part of your plan too?”

Umm…

Fang Heng remained silent for a while and gave Maica an unfathomable look.

“Your Majesty is wise.”

Fang Heng lowered his head and pondered.

So now, Jian Muzhi should still be in a dormant state.

Jian Muzhi’s ability to fuse with the remains of the Vampire King seemed quite strange, and since he dared to fall out with the Federation, he most likely had a backup plan. There was still a risk of rushing over to deal with the other party now.

To play it safe, it was better to think of a way to convince the Prince to pledge his loyalty.

With the help of the vampire Prince, he would be more confident in “reasoning” with Jian Muzhi.

As for whether he could convince the Prince to pledge his loyalty, it would depend on the fruit in his hand…

No, just the fruit alone might not be enough. He also had to ensure that the teleportation passage was open.

After all, he had to bring them all back to the world of the vampires.

Just like playing a game, one had to get the guaranteed reward first before considering how to get more.

Fang Heng thought for a while and said, “Maica, let’s split up. You go find Joel, and I’ll go get the materials for the magic array.”

…

Somewhere in the underground cave, Prince Joel was running forward.

Behind him, the two A-level inspection teams of the Federation were pestering him.

The distance between the two parties was rapidly shrinking.

Joel’s heart gradually sank to the bottom of his stomach.

In the beginning, he was still able to suppress the injured federal team and bombard them from a distance to vent his anger.

However, the second Federation’s investigation team soon arrived, and Joel immediately fell into a huge disadvantage.

With the idea of stalling for time, Joel originally wanted to go in circles in the cave. He did not expect that just as he started to do so, a third inspection team would rush over to join the battlefield.

This time, Joel was finally sure that the Federation had indeed sent a large number of elites into the cave to participate in the operation. Fang Heng had not lied to him about this.

What was worse was that Jian Muzhi showed no signs of waking up.

Was the hope of the vampires really going to die here?

Joel’s eyes flashed with a touch of despair.

“Whoosh! Whoosh, whoosh!”

Two black afterimages came from both sides of Joel’s body, trying to wrap around him.

Joel’s expression was grave.

This black aura was extremely difficult to deal with, and he had already suffered quite a bit before.

Without a choice, Joel was forced to stop and turn around. He abruptly clapped his hands together.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

The lifeblood that flowed out of his body caused the shadow to explode and collapse.

After being delayed for a moment, the ten high-tier elites of the Federation caught up and formed a circle around Joel.

Facing the vampire Prince, even if the other party were already at the end of their rope, the Federation people didn’t dare to be careless.

A middle-aged man from the Federation’s team chuckled as he cupped his fists at Joel and said, “Prince, don’t run. You know you can’t escape. Why don’t we be more straightforward? Everyone will be more relaxed. How about it?”

“Shut up!” Joel’s eyes widened in anger. He suddenly turned his head to the right and spat out a mouthful of blood. Then, he formed a vampire spell seal in his hands.

Whoosh!

The blood in the air condensed into a long and narrow blade, slashing toward the players in front of him.

“Be careful!”

The three teams blocking Joel’s right immediately scattered and dodged.
