Chapter 481: New Main Storyline
“I originally wanted to wait until we settle down before heading out with Tang Bai to look for them. Now that you’re here, we can go together. We’ll soon find Frege and the others. ”
“Really? That’s great. ” Lucia revealed a happy expression. “We can go look for them together. ”
Fang Heng was stunned. “Wallace, are you saying that you and Tang Bai are the only two people in the shelter? ”
“Yes, just the two of us. ”
Fang Heng opened his mouth and understood.
The timeline of District 8 was more than ten years earlier than the timeline of District 7.
The zombie apocalypse had just happened, and Wallace had just returned to the manor. He still hadn’t found his companions and the Hila tissue sample!
In other words, the entire mission line of the Hila tissue sample had yet to be triggered!
Fang Heng pressed on, “In the materials that you retrieved from the research institute, was Hila Rui Qi’s location included? ”
“Yeah, Rui Qi is in there too. ”
A line of game hints popped up in Fang Heng’s vision.
“Hint: player has triggered the main storyline Hila Rui Qi. ”
Mission name: Hila Rui Qi.
Mission difficulty: S
Mission description: you have learned about the story of Wallace. Please follow Wallace to find Hila Rui Qi.
Mission requirements: find the research institute where Hila is at. Find the missing Hila Rui Qi.
“Great! I have to take the initiative to search for the mission, ” Fang Heng thought to himself. “On the bright side, District 7’s Wallace was able to find the Hila tissue sample by himself. The mission difficulty shouldn’t be too high. With this mission, I’ll also be able to find more clues related to the Hila experiment. I might be able to earn more main storyline contribution points, too. But time isn’t on my side. After two days, it’ll cost 400 main storyline contribution points in order to delay the announcement for another 24 hours. I can’t afford that. ”
Fang Heng looked at Wallace. “Wallace, are you feeling better? Time is limited. I suggest that we set off immediately to look for Rui Qii. ”
“Now? So soon? ”
...
The sky gradually darkened.
Recently, the Federation of District 7 was having a very difficult time.
That was especially so for the federal shelter in the Songxi Mountain area.
The large number of high-tier zombie creatures that had previously been left behind in the Edge Creek Town region were still roaming about there.
As the ones closest to Edge Creek Town, the federal shelter had been dealing with the large group of high-tier zombies that came out of Edge Creek Town almost 24 hours a day.
Apart from the zombie group, there was also the mutant worm bodies that appeared from time to time.
“Sir, the latest file from superiors! Please review it. ”
“Give it to me. ” Liang Hucheng took the file from his subordinate and opened it to read it carefully.
He mused, “Strange! He immediately started to prepare to build a space tearing teleportation stabilizing device in District 7? Is it to deal with the Scavenger Army? Kou Huai persuaded the Federation’s upper echelons to make use of the strength of other game worlds to make a move against District 7, and the Federal Central Assembly actually agreed? ” Liang Hucheng’s brows were tightly knitted.
He had heard some rumors.
In recent years, the Federation’s influence in advanced game worlds had suffered repeated setbacks, and resources were extremely tight. Normally, they would not waste their limited resources on low-tier game worlds.
“Make the arrangements. Immediately prepare the needed materials according to the list given by superiors. ”
“Understood! ! ”
...
It was close to midnight.
Fang Heng and his group of four others took a helicopter and hovered in the sky above Haimu City.
Haimu City used to have the most prosperous economy and advanced scientific research in the entire Western region.
After the outbreak of the zombie virus, the place had since long been reduced to ruins.
The densely packed zombie team crowded the street.
Wallace and Tang Bai looked at the scene of the zombie rampage from the helicopter, their faces slightly pale.
Fang Heng also felt his head throb. It was as if he had sabotaged himself.
Because of the anti-virus vaccine, a large number of high-tier zombies resurrected and formed a giant-sized zombie wave.
His zombie clones temporarily stayed in District 7 to cooperate with the Scavenger Army to resist the aftermath of the zombie wave that had wandered out of Edge Creek Town. He was unable to help District 8.
Considering the large number of zombies in Haimu City of District 8 and the fact that it was an S-level main storyline mission, he had to put in substantial effort.
Without his cheat key, Fang Heng didn’t think that his team alone could complete the mission in a short time.
For safety reasons, Fang Heng still thought of a solution.
Through the authority of the deputy commander of the Dark Knights, Fang Heng directly announced the highest level of operations within the Dark Knights and pulled 20 elite teams over to carry out the mission.
Fang Heng had always thought that he was very good at coordinating human wave attacks.
The only trouble was that he had used up a large amount of Dark Knights contribution points.
The walkie-talkie kept transmitting the feedback from the various combat squads.
“Reporting to Commander! Squad One has arrived at the specific location. Landing completed. Clearing the landing platform of zombies... ”
“Squad Three has arrived at the predetermined location. Landing in progress. ”
“Squad Seven has completed landing. Setting up the communication tower. ”
“Squad Two has arrived and is trying to land according to the plan. ”
“Squad Twelfth is expected to arrive in two minutes... ”
Fang Heng took out his walkie-talkie and said in a deep voice, “Colonel Barker, you will be in charge of the whole operation. My team and I will invade from the roof. We will meet up in the central research room. By the way, tell the others to be careful when searching for the materials. Try not to damage them. ”
“Understood! ”
“Start the operation! ”
“Yes! ”
Mo Jiawei shrunk his neck in panic. The plane crash that happened when he went to Pine City with Fang Heng was still vivid in his mind.
Who would have thought that in just a month, Fang Heng had become the highest-ranking commander of the operation?
“Hey, guys, we’re here! ” The pilot waved to the back and dropped a rope down.
Using the rope, Fang Heng and the other four landed on top of a building in the city.
Gunshots were heard.
The few of them cooperated and quickly took care of the few wandering zombies gathered on the roof of the research institute.
After coming all the way here and seeing the scene of zombies rampaging in Haimu City, Wallace had a premonition. He raised his head and asked, “Fang Heng, Rui Qi has probably left this place, right? ”
“Maybe partially... ” Fang Heng mused. He didn’t tell Wallace and the others about the Hila tissue sample in advance.
In District 7, it had been confirmed that Hila had been dead for several years.
No, to be precise, Hila didn’t die. Her cells were still alive.
She had just been taken apart for several years.
“Maybe. There are still a lot of experimental data in this place. These data are very useful to us. Maybe we can find out where Rui Qi went through them. ”
“Okay. ”
“Don’t think too much. Focus. ” Fang Heng nodded. He took out his machete from his backpack and swallowed a bottle of powerful anti-infection potion. Then, he continued, “For our next part of the plan, to put it simply, we’ll rashly go in and find a way to infiltrate the central research room and find information related to Hila. Then, immediately evacuate. ”
