Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 2679: Comprehension
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Huff…

Fang Heng panted slightly, stroked his chin, and continued to think of a strategy.

He could use his secondary space projection ability and vampire blood control ability to constantly consume the number of Disaster creatures and Nests of Disaster, while also earning some contribution points.

However, it seemed that this would be a drop in the bucket. His kill rate couldn’t keep up with the speed at which the Disaster creatures were being born.

It wouldn’t have much of an impact on the overall situation.

He decided it was better to find the Nether River and complete the mission first.

Fang Heng thought to himself as he scanned the surrounding environment, searching for the exact location of the Nether River.

Hmm?

What was that?

Fang Heng suddenly noticed several broken flesh cocoons appearing on the ground not far away.

The flesh cocoons were completely different from ordinary Nests of Disaster; their outer shell had a scorched brown color.

Fang Heng’s mind stirred, and he immediately moved closer to the broken flesh cocoons.

Upon closer inspection, all the flesh cocoons had been broken open, their surfaces cracked and dried, indicating they had been here for a long time.

Nether River?!

Fang Heng raised his head and looked at the black river flowing slowly beside the flesh cocoons. A trace of surprise appeared in his eyes again.

The black river.

According to the Dark Clan’s description, they believed this river was the origin of the entire death realm, providing energy to the entire Netherworld.

But what was that?

Fang Heng furrowed his brow.

On the ground, red lines resembling meridians spread out, slowly connecting to the Nether River.

The other end of these meridians seemed to gradually extend deep underground.

At first glance, it seemed that these meridians were drawing nourishment from the Nether River.

“Meridians…”

Fang Heng muttered to himself, suddenly thinking of something.

Nests of Disaster.

Fang Heng looked towards a nearby Nest of Disaster, noticing that the strange meridian-like lines extended from the ground to the base of the Nest of Disaster.

Both types of meridians were the same!

So…n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Was it the Nether River that was actually supplying energy to the Nest of Disaster?

Fang Heng vaguely felt that he had stumbled upon something important.

He turned back to glance at the Nether River, which slowly spread forward, its end seemingly out of sight. The entire river emitted a strange force that made one feel an irresistible urge to move closer.

Strangely, a small area by the edge of the Nether River was devoid of Nests of Disaster, making the density of Disaster creatures in that region noticeably low.

Fang Heng stopped at the edge of the Nether River and observed.

According to the documents translated by the Empress, it was here that she had comprehended the method to advance to God-level necromancy.

The next step of the mission also pointed to this location.

Now that he had arrived, how could he trigger the next part?

Fang Heng tried walking up to the Nether River, stepping out of his secondary space projection state.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!!!

The Disaster creatures on the periphery of the Nether River once again sensed Fang Heng and quickly charged towards him.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!!!”

The Disaster creatures exploded one by one under the effect of Fang Heng’s Blood-Boiling skill.

Taking advantage of the moment before more Disaster creatures arrived, Fang Heng stretched out his hand, attempting to touch the Nether River.

“Hiss…”

A cold, indescribable sensation flowed through his fingers into his body.

In the next moment, Fang Heng’s gaze became profound, and he sensed a new force.

Gradually, illusions began to materialize before his eyes.

From a person’s birth to death, it was as though, in the blink of an eye, he had experienced the full cycle of the secrets of death.

Instantly, countless negative emotions from those nearing death flooded into his sea of consciousness!

Scenes flashed before his eyes like slides, and Fang Heng momentarily fell into a dazed state.

At the same time, the Empress’ notebook, which had been stored in his backpack, appeared before him, turning a page as if influenced by some unknown force.

“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!!!”

A large number of Disaster creatures exploded around him, causing terrifying damage!

Fang Heng snapped out of his daze from the explosion damage and suddenly opened his eyes, beads of cold sweat appearing on his forehead.

Not good!

Seeing his HP rapidly dropping, Fang Heng once again retreated into his secondary space projection.

“Hoo…”

Reflecting on what had just happened, Fang Heng seemed to have understood something.

The advancement to God-level necromancy might have required absorbing the power from the Nether River.

Perhaps, from the moment the death realm was created, it had been responsible for the reincarnation cycle of most races.

The Nether River would purify and absorb this power as it completed the cycle, merging the strength into itself and gathering it within the river.

Fang Heng turned his gaze to the floating Empress’ notebook in front of him.

On the current page of the notebook was a peculiar imprint.

From the earlier translations by the undead council instructors, it was clear that this imprint represented the comprehension of power.

Based on this, it seemed likely that the lines on the imprint were meant for absorbing and understanding the strength of the Nether River.

“Comprehension…”

Fang Heng murmured to himself again.

In the next moment, lines of game prompts began flashing on his retina.

[Hint: The player’s current mission-The Path to God-Level (Necromancy) has changed.]

Mission name: The Path to God-Level (Necromancy).

Type: Guidance mission.

Current guidance: You have gained an understanding of the reincarnation power of the Nether River and realize that this power will help you advance further into god-level necromancy.

Current comprehension progress: 0.2%

Special description: During the comprehension process, the Empress’ notebook must be used for protection. If the player loses the Empress’ notebook during the mission, the mission will fail by default.

So it was indeed about comprehension!

And there was already progress on the skill.

Only 0.2%?

Fang Heng furrowed his brows, looking up at the Nether River again.

It seemed that he would need more time to comprehend.

Moreover, during this process, someone would have to guard him, or else he would be interrupted like before.

Upon further thought, it didn’t seem too difficult. Even if he was alone, he could gradually comprehend 0.2% at a time. After a while, he should be able to complete the mission.

“Whoosh!!”

What was that?

Just as Fang Heng was thinking, his senses picked up something, and he quickly turned his head toward the Nether River.

Ripples appeared in the middle of the Nether River.

“Boom!!”

The river exploded!

A figure leaped out from the splashing Nether River, charging straight toward him!

It was an elite mutated creature!

Whoosh!!!

The elite mutated creature moved incredibly fast, almost appearing in front of Fang Heng within a few breaths. Its clawed fist, covered in scale armor, struck directly toward Fang Heng’s face with a mighty blow.

What!

Its attack could even break through his spatial projection and strike him!?

Fang Heng’s pupils suddenly contracted, and his hands quickly raised in defense.

“Boom!!!”

Fang Heng was forced back from his secondary space projection by the punch.

The creature could break through spatial projection!

The figure was enveloped in a layer of red, thread-like structures, yet it still maintained a human-like form. On the outside, it resembled a humanoid dark red structure.

“Hoo!!”

Without a word, Fang Heng retaliated, charging forward with his own punch toward the figure!
