Chapter 1169 - 1169 Breaking the Situation

1169 Breaking the Situation

Quark’s expression changed a few times before he gritted his teeth and said, “Everyone, search the non-secret areas of the Alchemy Society and seal off all the entrances. We must find Fang Heng!”

“Yes!”

Among the group of people behind Moravic, a middle-aged player seemed to be in deep thought.

“Brother, it seems that Fang Heng is the person His Majesty is looking for, and he has quite a powerful background. If it weren’t for Teacher Moravic, we wouldn’t have been able to stop them. Is there a mission?”

“Hmm, let’s wait and see,” Yu Ruilin whispered. “The Prilla Guild is willing to pay such a high price. The mission must be extraordinary.”

At this moment, on the eighth floor of the Alchemy Society, Fang Heng and his team of four had just returned to the abandoned storage room on the eighth floor that they had explored before.

Sandy had just finished studying the missing alchemy magic array in the reference room on the third floor and was still fiddling with it for a.n.a.lysis when he was pulled out by Ed from the third floor in advance.

Helplessly, he could only leave with the half-completed blueprint.

In the storage room, Sandy displayed the blueprint in front of everyone, then continued to try to a.n.a.lyze and make up for it based on his memory.

It was worth mentioning that Ed managed to get two ident.i.ty cards from the Alchemy Society before he went offline, which allowed him to enter the non-secret areas without any hindrance.

Originally, everyone should get one each, but he didn’t expect Tang Mingyue to be there, so it wasn’t easy to split the loot.

While observing the alchemy magic array on the drawing, Fang Heng squatted down and compared it to the whole alchemy magic array on the ground, preparing to use an alchemy brush to complete the magic array.

Meanwhile, Ed was constantly going online and offline, and through his offline communication, he was able to find out the current movements of the royal guards from the players of the gaming union who were still on the second floor.

He had only spent an extra 500 Empire Tani to rent a room. It was definitely a worthwhile investment.

The situation was not too bad. The Prilla Guild had spent a lot of effort to get an acquaintance to find two high-tier players from the Alchemy Society and come to an agreement with them to delay the search by the royal guards.

Fortunately, everything seemed to be under control based on the feedback so far. The Alchemy Society had temporarily stopped the people below the fourth floor.

Fang Heng had just made a few more strokes on the magic array according to the drawing. He then put down the alchemy brush and stopped, staring at the alchemy magic array on the ground and falling into deep thought.

Seeing Fang Heng’s expression, Ed felt that the situation was not good. He asked, “Lord Fang Heng, what’s the situation?”

Fang Heng raised his head and said, “We’re in trouble. Judging from the composition of the magic array, it’s a medium to short-distance teleportation magic array. Activating teleportation requires mental strength, and subsequently, a large amount of energy will be consumed to maintain and open the s.p.a.ce pa.s.sage. Do you have any high-density energy bodies on you?”

Tang Mingyue looked at Ed.

“No, I don’t have.”

Ed’s face was bitter as he shook his head.

He had quite a few emergency consumables and equipment in his backpack, and even magic scrolls.

However, he did not have any high-concentration energy bodies.

Who would carry such a thing around with them for no reason?

In this situation, even if he spent a lot of money to buy it, there was no way to get the goods.

As for Tang Mingyue, who originally had a large number of magic scrolls with her, she had used up most of them when she robbed the Empire’s royal treasury. Naturally, she did not have such things with her.

“That’s troublesome…”

Fang Heng lowered his head and started to think.

“Is there a way to solve it?” Ed asked.

“Hmm, there’s a way.”

The two of them looked at Fang Heng together.

“What is it?”

“Alchemy puppets.”

Fang Heng s.h.i.+fted his gaze to the outside of the room and said, “We encountered a lot of alchemy puppets on our way here. They have chargers on them. With a little modification, we can use the magnetic field in the bas.e.m.e.nt to modify and charge the magic array.”

There’s such an operation?

Tang Mingyue and Ed were stunned when they heard that.

“Lord Fang Heng, can you really do that?”

“Yes, that’s the principle.”

Fang Heng nodded in confirmation and said, “We need a lot of central components, and it will take time to disa.s.semble and a.s.semble the equipment. In addition, the alchemy puppets can’t be too badly damaged to prevent damaging the alchemy machinery’s original components. I can deal with those alchemy bodies outside, but we have limited time. I’m afraid we can’t do it one by one.”

Tang Mingyue and Ed looked at each other.

Ed was a mid-level mage and his instantaneous burst ability is pretty good. He possessed electric spells that could cause additional damage to half-mechanical alchemy creatures and restrict ice spells.

However, they still encountered the same problem, which was that it could not last long. After quickly killing a few enemies, he would fall into the predicament of mental exhaustion.

Ed’s eyes lit up and he suggested, “Lord Fang Heng, the maintenance point. There must be a lot of damaged or old abandoned puppets there. There are also many replaceable parts. You can find them there!”

“Where’s the maintenance point?”

“Uh…” Ed’s tone suddenly became sluggish. “I think it’s on the second floor.”

It was obvious that a large number of royal guards were gathered on the first three floors, and going there now would be suicide.

Fang Heng secretly noted it down and thought that the second floor could be one of the alternative plans. Then, he raised his head again to look at Ed and asked, “What’s the situation on your friend’s side?”

Ed said seriously, “I’ve asked a friend of mine to invite the Vice President of the Alchemist Society. They’ve temporarily blocked the royal guards from the fourth floor and below. They’re now conducting a thorough search of the first floor, but I don’t think they’ll be able to hold them off for long.”

Tang Mingyue asked, “Your friend? Can you get them to find a way…”

Tang Mingyue stopped mid-sentence.

A line of red game prompts flashed on the retinas of all the trial members.

[Hint: It has been detected that trial player Tang Mingyue has the tendency to induce players to provide help. The player team has received an initial warning. The trial game time will be reduced by 30 minutes.]

Ed understood and said bitterly, “Not really. They’re from the Alchemy a.s.sociation. Their asking price is very high, and they’re not willing to take any commissions from the Alchemy a.s.sociation.”

Tang Mingyue cast an apologetic look at Fang Heng.

Fang Heng shrugged.

He roughly understood that when it came to players like Ed, he could get them to help him if he successfully hid his ident.i.ty as a player, but he could not ask for their help.

However, this boundary wasn’t that clear, so there should be a hidden setting.

Ed saw Fang Heng suddenly become silent, wondering if their favorability had dropped again.

He bit the bullet and said, “I can try, but it’ll be difficult.”

“Yes, we still have a way to quickly get a large number of alchemy bodies.”

“What?”

“Let the alchemy creatures fight with the Empire’s soldiers, then we can go and collect the corpses.”

“Ah, this… Isn’t this too difficult?”

Ed really wanted to say that it was wishful thinking.

“Indeed, but it’s not impossible. Let’s try it. Make some noise and think of a way to get to the second floor.”

Most of the puppets in the corridor were made of mechanical devices.

Fang Heng was Victor’s student, and he had long leveled up his machinery to the maximum level.

In addition, Fang Heng had started off by dismantling and a.s.sembling alchemy bodies since he started practicing basic alchemy. Naturally, he knew them like the back of his hand.

“There’s no time, let’s go. Sandy can stay by himself, we’ll think of a way while we walk.”
