Chapter 457: Western Region
“There’s no need to be so polite. Our guilds have always cooperated with each other,” Noyce said as he pointed at a row of large trucks parked at the edge of the hall. “The trucks have already been prepared for you. Do you need anything else? Do you need me to send a few guides to follow you?”
Noyce’s face was full of smiles, but he was making plans in his heart.
Right now, the entire eastern region was trembling with fear over the mutant worm body. Why did the Leftway Gaming Guild suddenly come to the western region?
Could it be that they were here to expand the territory of the western region?
It looked like the other party was up to something big. All of a sudden, they had borrowed more than 20 trucks from them.
It was strange!
“No need to trouble yourself. We can do it ourselves.”
Zhong Lei did not know the real reason behind Fang Heng’s visit. He only knew that it was a very important matter. Thus, he whispered into Noyce’s ear, “It’s a hidden mission. Don’t leak it out.”
“I understand.”
Noyce smiled and nodded in agreement.
He had doubts about the true reason behind the Leftway Gaming Guild’s visit.
Recently, the matter of mutant worms had become a hot topic.
He felt that it might be related to the vaccine that the Leftway Gaming Guild had developed.
No matter what, the price of renting the teleportation passage was very high.
There was no reason for him not to earn this money.
Noyce was still unwilling to give up. He probed, “I heard that you guys have already developed an anti-mutant worm body vaccine?”
“Hahaha, it’s just luck. Currently, we have already started mass production. With the anti-mutant body vaccine, I believe that under the leadership of the Federation, the mutant worm crisis will be over very soon, right?”
“Of course, the crisis will pass very quickly.” Noyce nodded and stopped asking, “That is the freight passage. After the door opens, the truck will enter the first floor through a large cargo elevator. After that, it will be able to leave the shelter straight ahead. I won’t bother you anymore.”
After a few simple pleasantries, Noyce saw that he could not get any useful information, so he tactfully left with the guild players.
When Noyce left with his men, Fang Heng immediately took off the mask on his face.
He walked to the control panel and quickly adjusted the location of the spatial rift’s passage.
After a moment, the teleportation passage that had been repositioned once again emitted a weak blue light.
“Bang! Bang Bang!”
The floor shook slightly.
Eight fusion mutant worm Tyrant forms stepped out of the portal in succession.
Under Fang Heng’s control, they walked to the trailer behind the truck and lay down quietly.
Then came the ordinary fusion Tyrant.
The two ordinary fusion Tyrants squeezed into one trailer.
Then came the scarlet Lickers, which pounced on the truck behind them and entered the gap between the trucks.
Finally, there was the ordinary vine zombie team.
They squeezed each other and walked out of the portal, filling up the last space of the trailer.
It was the first time Zhong Lei saw such a large zombie team up close.
He was secretly glad.
Fortunately, Fang Heng was not their enemy.
However, Zhong Lei also felt very strange. Why did Fang Heng spend so much effort to bring so many zombie teams here?
Was he planning to attack the western region?
“Almost done.”
Fang Heng rubbed his neck, feeling bitter in his heart.
In the game, theoretically, only the Dark Knights had the teleportation passage.
The blueprint for the passage in the player’s hands was also obtained from the Dark Knights.
Moreover, the number was limited.
Fang Heng calculated that if he did not use the teleportation passage, it would take him two days to drive a truck to the western region.
The main storyline mission in District 8 couldn’t wait that long!
Therefore, Fang Heng had to spend more money to find a more reliable player union to rent a teleportation passage.
When all the zombies got on the truck, Fang Heng covered the truck with a layer of tarp.
In the end, more than 20 NPC survivors walked out of the passage.
They boarded the truck’s cab one by one.
The NPCs did not know what terrifying things were loaded under the tarp at the back of the truck.
Fang Heng finally checked and manually controlled the machine to open the iron door of the hall to the outside world.
“Let’s go!”
Ten minutes later.
The vice president of the Seventh Dimension Gaming Union, Noyce, watched as more than 20 trucks filled with “goods” left the shelter.
“Boss, should we send someone to follow them to take a look?”
“Yes, send someone to follow them. Keep a distance. Be careful not to be discovered.”
Olf nodded. “Understood! Leave it to me.”
After leaving the shelter, Fang Heng immediately headed toward the coordinates.
On the trailer behind the truck, several Lickers kept falling.
“Chi chi chi...”
After landing, the Lickers spread out in all directions.
A moment later, a white van appeared on the highway.
Olf led a small team of three to drive the van. They followed far behind Fang Heng in an attempt to monitor him.
“Look! What’s that!”
Olf suddenly discovered, to his surprise, that a red shadow had appeared on both sides of the road.
More than ten Lickers were blocking the middle of the highway.
It was Lickers!
“Chi chi chi!”
More than ten Lickers saw the white van and immediately pounced on it.
Olf and the others immediately raised their guns and counterattacked.
“Bang! Bang Bang Bang!”
“Quick! Ignore them! Just run over them!”
Hearing that, the driver stepped on the accelerator to the maximum and crashed into a group of Lickers in front.
However, the Lickers’ attack was beyond their expectations.
A Licker directly pounced on the top of the truck!
A sharp claw slashed past and tore a huge hole in the entire top.
Olf raised the automatic rifle, aimed at the top, and pulled the trigger.
“Bang! Bang Bang!”
The Licker was in pain and could not hold on to the truck. It fell heavily to the ground.
The remaining Lickers did not give up and chased after the truck from behind.
“Faster! Drive faster! Shake them off!”
Olf shouted and raised his automatic rifle with his other two companions to shoot at the Licker.
Suddenly, Olf felt something bite his wrist.
He raised his hand and frowned.
When did a cut appear on his hand?
When he took a closer look, a row of messages appeared on his retina.
[Hint: Unknown mutant worm body is trying to control your central nervous system.]
[Hint (obtained from low-level game difficulty): Based on your basic attribute, your central nervous system will be infected by the unknown worm body within 45 seconds...]
What was going on?
Mutant worm body!
When did mutant worm bodies appear in their western region!
He looked carefully.
There were actually tiny mutant worms in the truck!
And when did they appear in the truck!
Cold sweat broke out on Olf’s forehead. He suddenly realized that his companion, who was driving the truck, had suddenly stopped talking.
Was he infected?
Before he could figure it out, the car had completely lost control.
“Boom!”
With a loud bang, the car drove off the road and crashed into a huge rock beside the road.
