Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 2182  Reversal

The human Federation gradually turned the tide and became the dominant power in this world, driving the tree spirit race into the primeval forest.

After humanity joined the Star Alliance, the spawns temporarily left, and control of the world was handed over to the human Federation. Subsequently, Ji Haiting’s family company, OmniTech Company, was acquired by the Federation for advanced technological research and development.

Driven by the exploration of unknown powers and the wariness of the spawns, Ji Haiting had been searching for a way to break the technological blockade of the spawns.

In order to gain new strength, OmniTech Company began to conduct further investigations into the tree spirit race.

Until now, when they entered this world.

Fang Heng rubbed his temples.

Leaving aside the so-called Star Alliance and Ouroboros, the latter part of the World of Forests storyline was more or less sorted out.

“The spawns!”

Raven knew that the source affecting their strength came from the spawns, his face filled with wrath.

“Elder Raven, hold on for a moment,” Fang Heng interjected. “Mr. Ji, please continue. What exactly is the electronic spirit?”

Ji Haiting responded, “Based on my deduction, the electronic spirit is the core of the spiritual domain blockade network. Originally, it was a type of life form born in the domain of energy. After being modified by the spawns, they are now controlled by them.”

“Well, I’ve only heard about this thing, so I don’t know much about it. It’s said that the electronic spirit can exchange energy sources after absorbing a large amount of energy, and it’s a very dangerous thing. One small mistake could trigger a massive energy explosion,” Ji Haiting continued. “Fang Heng, I don’t recommend staying here any longer.”

Fang Heng fell silent for a moment, then looked to Raven beside him and continued, “Raven, did you hear all that?

“Yes, I heard it.”

Raven suppressed his inner anger and said in a deep voice, “I can feel it. It’s the source obstructing the strength of our tree spirit race. So, my premonition was correct, right? Destroying it will completely break the blockade imposed by the spawns on our tree spirit race.”

Ji Haiting’s voice came through the earpiece again, “Fang Heng, based on our existing data, once the electronic spirit is destroyed, the entire external spiritual domain blockade might cease to exist.”

Fang Heng quickly calculated in his mind.

The entire spiritual domain blockade network?

“Wait a minute, Boss Ji, if I recall correctly, you mentioned that the Federation communicates with the spawns through the spiritual domain network, right?”

“Yes, indeed. If it is completely destroyed, the entire spiritual domain network will also cease to exist, cutting off all communication between humans and the spawns.”

Fang Heng pressed further, “Does that include the teleportation passages from the spawns?”

Ji Haiting paused. He seemed to have realized what Fang Heng wanted to say.

The spawns relied on the spiritual domain blockade network to teleport Fang Heng and complete the chase.

Previously, their actions were merely temporary, hacking into the network to clear Fang Heng’s tracking information. It was just scratching the surface. Once Fang Heng exhibited energy fluctuations again, the spawns could quickly relock onto him. Even if Fang Heng did nothing, they could eventually pinpoint his location through systematic investigation.

But now, it was indeed an excellent opportunity!

Directly taking down the entire spiritual domain blockade network!

The spawns took several years to establish the spiritual domain network. Rebuilding such a large teleportation device and energy hub would likely take months, or even several years!

For Fang Heng, however, he only needed a month!

“Yes, theoretically, that’s true. But Fang Heng…”

Ji Haiting wanted to persuade Fang Heng to abandon this plan.

The risk was too great!

The electronic spirit was an extremely dangerous entity. One misstep could lead to an explosion, potentially wiping out the entire research institute.

Moreover, directly breaking the spiritual domain network would indeed prevent the spawns from chasing them for a long time. However, at the same time, the entire Federation’s spiritual domain blockade network would also be paralyzed.

Once the spiritual domain blockade network fails, the suppression on the tree spirit race would be lifted…

The tree spirit race was highly likely to lose control!

And the Federation would lose the ability for large-scale mechanical transition and the channel to communicate and gather information from the spawns.

“Fang Heng, I suggest you consider this carefully.”

“Yeah, I understand.”

Fang Heng understood Ji Haiting’s concerns very well.

He was aware of this.

Indeed, he hesitated a bit.

All along, the tree spirit race had been like a ticking time bomb.

After the spiritual domain blockade was lifted, it was uncertain what level of power the tree spirit race could reach.

The game prompting him to join the tree spirit camp had probably took into consideration the overall strength of the tree spirit race.

Just as he was hesitating, a series of game hints quickly appeared before his eyes.

[Hint: The player triggered an optional mission-Destroy the electronic spirit.]

Mission title: Destroy the electronic spirit.

Mission description: After analyzing with Ji Haiting and Raven, you’ve determined that the electronic spirit is the central control of the entire spiritual domain blockade network. Destroying the electronic spirit will completely destroy the spiritual domain blockade network established by the spawns.

Once the spiritual domain blockade network is destroyed, the current connection between humans and spawns in this world will be severed. The spawns will need more time to return to this world, and the suppression of the tree spirit race by the spawns will also be lifted.

Mission rewards: Increase in tree spirit race friendship, significant progress in the main storyline, early termination of the player’s current side mission (the pursuit from the spawns) with additional completion rate rewards.

As Fang Heng looked at the appearing game prompt, his gaze couldn’t help but focus on the rewards section.

This was a significant progress in the main storyline!

Just do it!

He had put in so much effort, wasn’t it to complete the main storyline as quickly as possible?

Then let’s go big.

Just find a way to break the spiritual domain network and remove the seal!

Switching to other mission routes would probably mean facing trouble from the spawns.

Who knows, in the end, the tree spirits might still be able to restore their strength by breaking the spiritual domain network.

Might as well not use his brain, just go for the fastest way directly.

But…

Fang Heng turned to Raven.

He couldn’t just let the tree spirits benefit for nothing.

He had to get them some benefits.

“I’m curious, Raven,” Fang Heng said, “You mentioned that the spiritual domain blockade has a significant suppressive effect on the tree spirit race. So, what would the tree spirit race be willing to offer in order to break the spiritual domain blockade network?”

Raven looked at Fang Heng, his brow furrowed.

Fang Heng’s opportunism didn’t sit well with him at all.

A mere human, thinking it was an honor for them to offer something to the tree spirit race!

And he dared to make demands?

Raven took a deep breath, suppressing the rising anger once again.

“Fang Heng, you should know that we don’t necessarily need you,” Raven replied sternly.

“That’s obvious, and I’m well aware of the strength of the tree spirit race,” Fang Heng shrugged, looking towards Vannes and his group, who were currently engaged in battle with the spawns in the hall.

In the ongoing battle, Vannes and his group were clearly at a disadvantage.

“But Elder Raven, I must remind you that the Federation outside is still unaware of what’s happening here. It’s only because of our assistance that the connection between here and the outside world has been temporarily severed. However, the time we’ve bought for you isn’t as much as you might imagine.”
