Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game Novel - Chapter 1601

1601 New Main Storyline
“As the Frost Hell is filled with cold aura and a large number of undead creatures, we are unable to continue exploring the lower levels of the shady line. The people of the Holy Court also gave up because of the annihilation and completely withdrew from Punoze.”

“Later on, the undead completely occupied this world. Our family built the Frost Fortress here to prevent the aura of the shady line from leaking out. At the same time, we also protected the source of the shady line for generations.”

“Protect?”

Fang Heng was a little suspicious and asked, “To prevent another accident from happening at the source of the shady line?”

“Yes, we’re not sure what exactly happened at the source of the shady line, but after that explosion, the aura of the shady line leaked out thousands of times more intensely than before. Frost Fortress was originally established to prevent the shady line from leaking out on a larger scale.”

“Of course, this is only one of the reasons. As time passed, the aura of the source of the shady line did not increase.”

Fang Heng thought to himself that the reason why the aura of the shady line did not continue to leak out and strengthen was most likely because of that great holy sword.

To some extent, the great holy sword had sealed a small part of the crack.

“There is a second reason why we are staying here.”

Fang Heng asked, “A second reason? What is it?”

“For soul essence. This is something that can only be found after the death of a creature in the Frost Hell.”

“It can increase the power of undead creatures.”

As the City Lord spoke, he looked at Fang Heng and said, “You should know that the undead is a type of creature with a very single attribute. In a head-on battlefield, the soul essence can increase the power of the undead in a very short period of time and give them the ice attribute.”

“Therefore, the frost soul essence is of great strategic value to us necromancers.”

After explaining the whole matter, the City Lord turned back to look at Fang Heng again. He said, “Now, let’s return to the original question. I don’t know where the source of the shady line leads to, or what it is exactly. From some traces and past records, I tend to think that it may lead to a special area in the death realm, or it may be an undiscovered world.”

“Fang Heng, perhaps you are the first one to enter the depths of the shady line after my ancestor. I see potential in you.”

The City Lord looked at Fang Heng.

“I have a mission for you. I hope you can go to the depths of the shady line again to investigate and confirm the situation there.”

Several game notifications appeared on Fang Heng’s retina.

[Hint: The player has completed the mission-Ancestor’s remains. The player has received 30,000,000 contribution points as a reward. The player’s friendship with Hornlow has increased greatly. (Points can be exchanged for rewards at the Quartermaster of Frost Fortress).]

[Hint: The player has gained the trust of City Lord Hornlow.]

[Hint: The player has submitted soul ice crystal (highest-tier)*2,933. The player’s friendship with City Lord Hornlow has greatly increased. The player has received 29,330,000 points as a reward.]

Fang Heng was stunned.

50 million points could be exchanged for the highest level of brilliant crystals.

He actually gathered all of them!

Including the first one, he obtained another one after he went to the high-level game world to kill Hell Faram.
All three of them!

Teacher Gu Luo even promised to give him one after he completed the mission.

And now there were even more?

Selling them for money?

Xu Xun and the others had all received the same talent advancement mission. They should also be in great need of this thing, right?

How about an auction? Let the highest bidder get it?

As Fang Heng was calculating, several lines of game notifications appeared again.

[Hint: The player has triggered the special world main storyline mission-Exploring the source of the shady line.]

Mission title: Exploring the source of the shady line.

Mission type: Special main storyline ring mission, can be triggered by multiple people at the same time. Can be triggered by a team. Only one person can complete the mission and trigger all the rewards.

Current mission description: You have learned the story of the source of the shady line from the City Lord, Hornlow.

Mission requirements: Please find a necromancy scholar (character level requirement: S+) and gain his trust. Bring him into the depths of the shady line to investigate and obtain information about the source of the shady line.

Mission reward: City Lord’s friendliness, necromancy faction reputation, mission progress reward.

Current player’s special main storyline mission progress: 17.8%.

Fang Heng looked at the mission notification and was shocked.

It was actually a main storyline mission?

Then, after completing the main storyline mission of this world, would he be able to obtain the authority to belong to this world?

In the past, Fang Heng knew that there was a saying about ownership rights in elementary games, which could be obtained by completing the world’s main storyline.

There were cases of players controlling intermediate and advanced game worlds but he had never heard of players gaining control rights through the game.

Milani also received a slightly different mission notification. She couldn’t help but glance at Fang Heng. She believed Xu Xun’s words even more now!

Fang Heng had the ability to bring them to complete the talent advancement mission!

Unlike Fang Heng, she had already triggered the relevant main storyline mission a long time ago.

However, she did not take the main mission to heart.

All the major player guilds were fighting for the main storyline mission. Milani didn’t think she would be so lucky to complete this mission.

Moreover, she preferred to be alone, so she had no intention of getting involved. Therefore, her mission progress was still at 0.01%. She had already given up.

The game had tacitly agreed that she and Fang Heng were teammates and shared information, which led to her mission progress greatly increasing to 9.14%!

Moreover, with Fang Heng’s help, she also triggered the next phase of the mission line.

Seeing that Fang Heng had fallen silent, the City Lord continued, “I’m familiar with Lady Garona of the mage tower. I know that she is very knowledgeable about the aura of the shady line. I can write a recommendation letter for you, and I believe that she would be very willing to explore the source of the shady line with you.”

[Hint: As your affinity with City Lord Hornlow has reached the limit, you have received a recommendation letter from the City Lord (Garona). Players can use this recommendation letter to find Lady Garona and obtain additional affinity points.]

[Hint: This item can be traded. It will drop after death.]

When Milani saw the recommendation letter, she couldn’t help but feel shocked.

With the recommendation letter, Fang Heng’s main storyline mission progress would undoubtedly be further accelerated!

How long had it been since Fang Heng entered Punoze?

Not only had he triggered the main storyline mission, but he had also completed at least 10% of it!

One had to know that many guilds were trying to explore this mission.

It had been more than ten years. As far as she knew, many large guilds only had progress of 7% to 9%. Among them, the highest mission completion rate was just close to 20%!

Fang Heng put away the recommendation letter and nodded in thanks, “Thank you. I’ll visit you when I’m free.”

A recommendation letter?

Main storyline mission?

Let’s talk about it in the future.

If it weren’t for Viona, Fang Heng would have chosen to complete it on the way to see if he could get some benefits.

But now, time was of the essence!

He had no time to care about this mission.
