Chapter 426: Fictitious God of Apocalypse
What?!
Fang Heng’s mind was in chaos for a moment.
“What’s going on?
Cook Barn is dead, so I can take his place?” he said to himself.
The development of this matter was far beyond Fang Heng’s original expectations.
Things had turned greatly delightful from greatly miserable.
Surprises just came to him suddenly.
“Perhaps Federation did me a big favor, right?” he thought.
Fang Heng suppressed the joy in his heart and checked his game log again.
Of course, he would choose to accept it!
The friendship of Dark Knights had already turned into hatred. Increasing it by a little would not change the situation at all! If he refused, Federation only needed to play little tricks to make him in huge disadvantage.
He would have a chance of survival only by joining Scavenger Army.
No, he would have many chances of survival.
Perhaps he would be able to find the main storyline soon!
Fang Heng immediately answered in his heart.
“Yes, I do.”
“Hint: Cook Barn is dead. You have chosen to be the commander of Scavenger Army. Your current honor level of Scavenger Army has automatically advanced to Level 24. You’re promoted as Acting Commander.”
“Hint: You have triggered the main storyline ending mission (normal ending), Fictitious God of Apocalypse.”
“Mission Description: Most members of Scavenger Army can be immune to the zombie virus. Although such an ability carries great risks, it may be the best way to coexist with the apocalypse. Please be fully in charge of Scavenger Army and allow it to occupy more than 85% of the territories in the world (District 7).
Mission Requirements: Lead your Scavenger Army to occupy 85% of the territories in the world and ensure the usage rate of divine potion be above 98%.
Mission Reward: The ending, Fictitious God of Apocalypse (Grade A), will be triggered after the mission is done. You can gain Mission reward and additional main storyline contribution points. After the ending mission is completed, players in District 7 will be ranked according to their main storyline contribution points. The player ranked first will obtain the ownership of District 7 in Zombie Apocalypse.”
Main storyline ending!
The game hints that appeared made Fang Heng’s heart beat fiercely.
After so much effort in a long time, he finally obtained the main storyline ending in such an unexpected way.
Fang Heng took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down. He rechecked the game hints.
Wasn’t it the end of the world?
The divine potion would cause humans to be infected with the unknown worm virus, so it meant everyone in the world would be infected with the worm virus?
According to the hint, there might be multiple endings of this game. Taking charge of Scavenger Army and dominating the entire apocalyptic world was just one of them.
The final reward for each ending would likely be different as well.
Thinking about it carefully, Fang Heng found it extremely difficult to complete the mission.
Scavenger Army had to occupy more than 85% of the world’s territory.
That was difficult!
The divine potion would affect the real world, so Federation would definitely not allow Scavenger Army to easily occupy District 7 of the game world.
“Should we go head-on with Federation?”
Fang Heng roughly thought about it.
They might not lose.
If Tyrant form cultivation pod on the eighth floor underground was intact, he could endlessly cultivate the modified tyrant forms. So what if they fight Federation of District 7 head-on?
He wouldn’t have to be afraid as long as Scavenger Army was strong enough.
Moreover, now that he was the leader of Scavenger Army, he might be able to think of a way to make a time passage stabilizer in District 7. By then, he could use the strength of District 8…
In a short while, Fang Heng had a general idea.
“Get up, everyone.”
“Yes, sir!”
The Scavenger Army elites all stood up respectfully and retreated to the side.
“Since I have become the commander, I don’t have to care about the mission of collecting boxes. I can go to the eighth floor underground and use Tyrant form modification pod, right?” he thought.
Fang Heng looked at Ni Shengtao at the side.
“Commander Ni, how’s damage of our shelter? And where are the intruders?”
“We have confirmed that the intruders have retreated. They entered here in quite a particular way. And they planted explosives while leaving. The second and third floors underground of the headquarters are badly damaged.
In addition, the information room on the twelfth underground floor is also badly damaged. Our men are doing rush repairs right now.
We have already started analyzing the intrusion methods of the intruders.”
Fang Heng continued to ask, “What about the eighth floor underground? Is there anything wrong with the laboratory on that level? Can the cultivation pod continue to run?”
Ni Shengtao was curious why Fang Heng was so concerned about the eighth underground level. He nodded and replied, “We haven’t received any reports of attacks on the eighth underground level so far. The laboratory is under the charge of Dr. Ding Min. She should know the cultivation pod’s condition the best.”
“Go and confirm the situation on the eighth floor immediately. Where is Dr. Ding Min now?”
“She is making urgent repair on the equipment on the second floor undergound.”
“Alright, ask her to come and meet me as soon as the repair is done. We’ll go to the eighth floor together…”
Osborne and Ni Shengtao looked at each other, then Osborne took a small step forward.
“Excuse me, Commander Fang Heng. Before you go, I have something really important to report to you privately.”
Fang Heng nodded and waved to his subordinates, “You guys go check the eighth floor now!”
“Yes, sir!”
After Scavenger Army elites all left, Fang Heng asked, “What’s it about?”
“Commander Fang Heng, it’s about the divine potion.”
Osborne was worried and continued, “Only the former commander, Cook Barn, has the formula of the divine potion. There will be no source of supply for the potion since he’s dead now.”
Fang Heng was stunned when he heard that.
This was a big trouble.
He suddenly realized that the divine potion was the biggest crisis he needed to face now!
In essence, the divine potion was a liquid providing nutrients to the parasitic worms inside the Scavenger Army members’ bodies.
If they hadn’t taken the potion for some time, the parasitic worms in their bodies would become restless, and their bodies would suffer a backlash. After a period of time, both the worms and their bodies would fall into a berserk state until they die.
At that time, Scavenger Army would inevitably collapse.
Osborne’s face was solemn as he said in a deep voice, “Commander Fang Heng, I have given immediate orders to seal off the news of Mr. Cook’s death. Currently, the remaining divine potion in the warehouse can only support us for three days at most. After that, our members will begin to have withdrawal symptoms if we can’t develop a new potion.”
“In order to maintain the stability of the team, I suggest that we announce the news of you becoming the new commander of Scavenger Army after we have completed the research and development of the divine potion.”
“Alright, you are thoughtful.”
Fang Heng nodded and smiled bitterly in his heart.
This was a really big trouble.
How could it be so easy to research and develop the divine potion?!
Due to the restriction of the worms in the divine potion, he was unable to deduce its formula even with his potionology skills.
Hold on!
Cook Barn should have left behind a lot of research materials. There might be clues to the divine potion.
“Commander Fang Heng, there’s one more thing.”
