Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 2327  Guilty

"Yes."

Senzo regained his composure and looked at Vannes, nodding approvingly, "Well done."

Vannes noticed that the Great Elder wasn't particularly pleased and couldn't help but ask, "Great Elder, is something wrong?"

"Yeah, just got word that Fang Heng didn't die."

"What?!"

Vannes was astonished.

"He's not dead? How is that possible?"

"I find it strange too. Not only is he alive, but he also captured Serge and sent word for us to deliver the agreed materials to him."

"Humph!" Vannes snorted heavily. "He's dreaming!"

Senzo spoke solemnly, "Fang Heng's actions are an attempt to leverage Serge to obtain materials from us. If we don't comply, it won't be easy for Elder Serge to return. Furthermore, I'm concerned Fang Heng will continue to cause trouble for us."

"So we're just going to give him everything?" Vannes grumbled angrily, feeling frustrated. "The Wood tribe is a bunch of useless people if they can't even handle Fang Heng!"

Senzo, being well-versed in matters of strategy, was also curious.

The Wood tribe was not weak,

How could they let Fang Heng leave so easily?

According to several tribe members executing the mission, Fang Heng was in excellent condition when he left the Wood tribe's habitat, showing no signs of injury.

Could it be that there was some agreement between the Wood tribe and Fang Heng?

That couldn't be possible.

Senzo ruled out this guess.

Vannes was getting anxious.

So they were just going to hand over the hard-earned spoils to Fang Heng like this?

After all the effort, they end up being his laborers?

"Great Elder, you're not seriously considering agreeing to Fang Heng's terms, are you?"

Senzo furrowed his brow, feeling increasingly troubled.

From their interactions with Fang Heng, it was clear he was not one to accept any loss. If they didn't give him the goods, it wouldn't be long before the Licker horde arrived. Senzo suspected Fang Heng might resort to despicable tactics of attrition.

In the end, they would be the ones dealing with the headache.

But handing over the hard-won goods snatched from the Wood tribe to Fang Heng?

On what grounds?

Not even Vannes could hide his extreme displeasure.

"Report!" n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

As they were speaking, a Leaf tribe guard hurriedly arrived, kneeling and presenting a letter. He reported, "Great Elder, there's the latest update from the Wood tribe."

Senzo, after reading the report handed to him by his subordinate, showed a deep concern in his eyes.

"Great Elder," Vannes whispered softly as he noticed Senzo's changing expression, "What's the matter?"

"The Wood tribe is rapidly mobilizing and heading towards our territory," Senzo replied.

"Oh?"

Vannes' eyes flashed with determination as he spoke coldly, "I knew they wouldn't just let this slide. This is perfect timing. I've been wanting to confront them face-to-face for a while now, Great Elder. I'll personally deal with them."

"No, this time their approach is peculiar. Let's retreat behind the protective barrier," Senzo said with a serious expression.

The report indicated that the Wood tribe's Great Elder, Tam Sangga, had swiftly gathered their clan and was marching directly towards them. The entire tribe seemed to be mobilizing hastily, showing a readiness for direct confrontation.

It was strange. Weren't they afraid of their settlement being attacked?

"Why?"

Vannes was puzzled.

"If Tam Sangga, the Great Elder of the Wood tribe, is personally leading the team, you're no match for him."

"What? Personally leading the team?"

"Yes, this situation is indeed suspicious. I've already sent someone to investigate thoroughly. For now, Serge is still detained by Fang Heng, and you're in charge of all external guards of the habitat."

"Understood!"

Senzo and Vannes could never have guessed that Fang Heng had taken advantage of entering the Wood tribe's territory to completely absorb the sacred tree sapling that the Wood tribe had cultivated for many years!

How could the Wood tribe not be furious?

With rage in their eyes, they came over to confront the Leaf tribe recklessly.

Although Senzo couldn't fathom the reason for the Wood tribe's sudden outburst, seeing their desperate determination made him feel a twinge of unease.

The Leaf tribe's strength was nowhere near what it used to be.

"Also, transfer the rest of the spoils to the secret warehouse first. Have Yuri start absorbing the essence of the sacred tree immediately. We need to boost our combat strength right away."

"Understood."

Vannes nodded.

Thinking about it carefully, Great Elder's deployment was actually quite convenient.

Recently, the Leaf tribe had already withdrawn to a defensive posture, and they had only held one of the peripheral Temples of Incantation. Retreating had been quite convenient.

"Great Elder, how should we handle Fang Heng's situation? Are we really going to return the plundered goods to him?"

Senzo pondered for a moment.

"No matter what the Wood tribe's intentions are, this is a critical moment. It's not prudent to deal with both the Wood tribe and Fang Heng simultaneously. I will send someone to inform Fang Heng that we need his assistance. Once the matter is resolved, everything we took from the Wood tribe today, including the vessels of sacrifice and sacred tree branches, will be returned to him with both hands."

...

In the Inner World, the Prayer Temple emitted a scarlet light.

[Hint: Abe Akaya's current dimensional level has increased to Level 11, consuming 22,000,000 energy points (affected by the level of the Prayer Temple, reducing upgrade energy consumption by 12%).]

[Hint: Due to Abe Akaya's dimensional level increase, the vampire clan gains an additional 80% basic attribute boost (calculated only through academic disciplines and bloodline type skills).]

[Hint: The dimensional level can be raised to a maximum of Abe Akaya's level divided by 10 plus 1. Currently, Abe Akaya's level is Level 148, so the dimensional level can be raised to Level 15 at most.]

Not bad, its dimensional level had increased again.

Dimensional strength levels 1 to 5 provide an additional 20% increase in basic attributes per grade. From grade 6 onwards, this increases to 40% per grade, and starting from grade 11, the increase becomes 80%.

Similarly, the dimensional energy required for leveling up increases exponentially.

Fang Heng withdrew his gaze from the magic array.

"Hail, Your Majesty!"

Around the magic array, a circle of gathered vampires all knelt in unison.

Vampire King Carl reported, "Your Majesty, Elder Miles from the Leaf tribe seeks an audience. I have asked him to wait at the entrance."

"Hmm, let's go. Let's see what tricks the leaf tribe is up to this time," Fang Heng said, leading the vampires out of the Prayer Temple.

Outside the temple, Elder Miles had been waiting for some time.

"Fang Heng."

Recognizing the familiar face, Fang Heng couldn't help but smile slightly and nodded in greeting. "Elder Miles, I presume you've come to discuss the terms of our cooperation?"

"Yes," Miles replied, his eyes showing a hint of caution as he looked at Fang Heng. He nodded and asked, "And what about Elder Serge? Is he well?"

"He's doing very well, almost enjoying himself," Fang Heng chuckled. "But let's talk about the terms first."

"Today, we invaded the Wood tribe's territory and occupied three of their Temples of Incantation. We have already counted all the materials we obtained and temporarily stored them in the tribe's habitat."
