Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game Chapter 2254 Guiding

Chapter 2254  Guiding

"Fang Heng, let's begin."

Ovi said, waving his hand to signal his subordinates from the Leaf tribe to gather around an ancient stone slab nearby.

The ancient stone slab was adorned with intricate traces of a magic array.

Ovi carefully inspected the magic array and breathed a sigh of relief.

Good news, the magic array hadn't been damaged during this period.

This would save a significant amount of time in repairing the magic array.

Accompanied by members of the Leaf tribe, they all approached and stood at the seven corresponding points of the large magic array.

Only two tribe members remained with Fang Heng to guard the operation of the magic array.

Ovi had no other choice.

The remaining supply of white frost ore was severely depleted, and this was the Leaf tribe's last combat capability.

"Let's begin!"

Ovi placed the sacrificial jar at the center of the magic array, raised his hand in a signal, and slowly infused his mental strength into the magic array.

"Buzz..."

The magic array slowly rotated, absorbing the dimensional world's power.

"Ka ka ka..."

The earth trembled slightly.

Heavy shadows emerged from the crevices of the stone forest, moving towards the direction of the magic array!

Rock puppets!

Fang Heng frowned.

He hadn't expected to encounter a somewhat familiar creature here.

Rock puppets belonged to a type of elemental creature.

They were tough opponents, possessing strong vitality, defense, and strength attributes, and were immune to most spells and physical negative effects.

Moreover, rock puppets even had the innate ability to manipulate earth and soil attacks.

In terms of strength, this world was roughly equivalent to a mid-tier game world.

"Be careful! They're coming!"

The two Leaf tribe members responsible for guarding immediately condensed natural energy and launched ranged nature spells with arrows!

"Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+"

The arrows, imbued with natural element energy, had incredible penetrating power. Coupled with the shooting expertise of the tree spirit clan, almost every arrow would deal critical damage and could even penetrate through several rock puppets!

Often, with two or three critical hits from arrows, a rock puppet would explode on the spot.

It seemed like the Leaf tribe's output was strong, but unfortunately, there were just too many rock puppets!

As the magic array operated, more and more soil puppets gathered towards it!

Relying solely on the two Leaf tribe members wouldn't be enough to clear them all, and this was under the condition that Ovi carefully controlled the magic array to operate at the slowest speed possible. Otherwise, the rock puppets would appear even faster!

Ovi was well aware of this, and he couldn't help but look at Fang Heng, a hint of anxiety on his face.

Here he comes!

Ovi turned his head and saw Fang Heng again putting on his mask.

"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!"

Magic arrays condensed and spiraled around Fang Heng's body.

A group of Lickers burst out from the magic array, immediately rus.h.i.+ng towards a group of rock puppets ahead!

Unlike when dealing with sandwing beetles, rock puppets' outer defense was evidently stronger. Though the Lickers' normal claw attacks could break through their defense, all additional effects like viruses and bleeding were completely immune.

The efficiency of the Lickers in killing was somewhat lacking.

But Ovi was somewhat relieved at the sight.

He was very grateful to have Fang Heng's help this time!

This was an opportunity!

To him, the efficiency of the Lickers in killing the rock puppets wasn't crucial.

What mattered most was the flesh of the Lickers!

The attacks of the rock puppets were almost entirely physical and couldn't deal lethal damage to the Lickers.

After being attacked, the Lickers would often be sent flying, only to bounce back into the fray with renewed vigor.

Soon, many Lickers formed a meat wall around the periphery of the dimensional magic staff, effectively blocking the incoming rock puppets!

Whether through melee attacks or using their remote earth control abilities to smash, none of the rock puppets could truly kill a Licker.

Thus, the Lickers stood invincible, quickly encircling the outer layers of the central magic array under Fang Heng's control, firmly sealing off the exterior!

Since the rock puppets couldn't fly, they couldn't enter the protective circle and could only collide with each other outside the periphery.

Fang Heng knew his limitations and couldn't be bothered to go over and deal with these unrewarding rock puppets. Instead, he let his actions become lazy and automated. He even glanced back to check on Ovi's situation in his spare moments.

Ovi and his companions were fully focused on maintaining the operation of the magic array.

Knowing that Fang Heng could hold off the rock puppets, Ovi and his companions devoted themselves entirely to the operation of the magic array, speeding up the absorption of dimensional energy.

Fang Heng watched for a moment, unable to help but smirk.

It seemed that Ovi was already putting in a lot of effort, but the extraction speed still felt too slow.

Perhaps it had something to do with the tree spirit clan itself.

The tree spirit clan wasn't well-versed in alchemy.

They relied on natural science to provide psychic energy to the magic array. Just the efficiency of energy conversion alone was very low.

Maybe...

Fang Heng focused his gaze on the magic array that Ovi was controlling.

Perhaps there was a way to modify it?

Ovi was fully concentrated on controlling the magic array, but he noticed Fang Heng staring at him out of the corner of his eye and turned to look at him.

Fang Heng caught Ovi's gaze and asked, "Need any help?"

"What?" Ovi responded.

"I mean the magic array," Fang Heng clarified, pointing towards it as he approached and gently placing his hands on it.

"Sizzle!"

As mental strength poured in, Ovi's pupils contracted.

He suddenly felt a tremendous surge of mental energy flowing through the magic array!

Fang Heng explained, "You guide me to familiarize myself with the magic array."

Ovi immediately understood and nodded, "Alright."

Instantly, the magic array accelerated its operation!

[Hint: The player receives guidance from Ovi, gaining partial information on the operation of the magic array...]

Even without Ovi's guidance, Fang Heng could have figured out the operation of the magic array with a little more time and perhaps a few wrong turns. But with Ovi's guidance, things became much simpler!

Following Ovi's mental guidance, Fang Heng quickly familiarized himself with the structure of the magic array.

After a complete operation of the magic array, Fang Heng understood the entire structure well.

After a few more runs, he no longer needed Ovi's guidance and could operate it autonomously.

Five minutes later, Ovi opened his eyes, somewhat incredulous as he looked at Fang Heng beside him.

Fang Heng had actually seized control of the magic array directly from him and was now controlling the entire operation!

What was even more terrifying was that Ovi hadn't realized Fang Heng's mental strength was so high, enough to match the entire team's combined strength!
