Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 2348  Escape

"Tippy, are you out of your mind? Trusting an outsider like this? What kind of trickery has he played on you?" Tam Sangga's disbelief in Fang Heng's proposal was evident as he admonished, "If this fails and Shaluba breaks free, the black fog will spread unchecked. None of us will be spared!"

"Everyone, we all know deep down that the seal is only temporary," Tippy responded, aware of the horrors of pollution but thinking long-term, "If we mishandle this, it will only deteriorate day by day. If there's a chance to permanently resolve the pollution, our Soul tribe is inclined to try."

Senzo spoke solemnly, "Tippy, trying is one thing, but we must be fully prepared. We can't simply break the seal based on his word alone."

The others nodded in agreement.

Fang Heng shrugged, indifferent to their concerns.

He had just thoroughly studied the entire seal.

The tree spirit tribe indeed lacked expertise in sealing art and alchemy.

They resorted to a novice's clumsy method: continuously layering magical arrays of seals, combined with the sacred tree's strength, to suppress the demonic seed deep underground.

According to their rough estimate, there were at least five hundred layers of seals below.

Even if someone wanted to forcefully break the seal, it would take some time.

"Very well, let's discuss and plan after we return."

Except for the Soul tribe, the other three major tribes did not agree to open the seal. After final discussions, they decided to step back for now, prepare thoroughly, and wait for the right moment to open the seal.

"Humph!"

Before leaving, Tam Sangga coldly snorted, "Tippy, you're still too young. Don't let this kid fool you."

After the other three tribes left first, Fang Heng continued to squat down and observe the seal magic array.

Abe Akaya awakened the ability to seal after absorbing the seed of the sacred tree, but its current strength probably isn't as strong as the previous sacred tree.

Even the previous sacred tree couldn't completely seal the demonic seed, so Abe Akaya would likely face difficulties.

Tippy waited for a moment and saw Fang Heng still inspecting. She walked up to him and quietly asked, "Any discoveries?"

"Not yet. Although it looks dangerous, the only way to completely resolve this trouble seems to be to break the seal."

"We, the Soul tribe, are willing to give it a try."

"You can only speak for your own Soul tribe."

Fang Heng was already pondering how to go about breaking the seal and releasing the demonic seed.

Given the unreliable nature of the Leaf tribe and Wood tribe, not dragging their feet would already be a positive outcome. Expecting them to come up with a viable plan?

Highly unlikely.

"Fang Heng, you still harbor biases against the Wood tribe and Leaf tribe. For the sake of the tree spirit tribe's interests, they..." Nôv(el)B\\jnn

As Tippy was speaking, her brow furrowed and her body swayed slightly.

There was a faint vibration underfoot.

What was happening?

Fang Heng also noticed the cave shaking slightly and instinctively looked toward Tippy beside him.

Not good!

Tippy suddenly realized something and her expression changed.

"Fang Heng! We need to leave here now!"

With that, Tippy immediately turned and ran towards the exit with two members of the tribe.

Fang Heng followed swiftly and soon caught up with Tippy standing at the entrance of the passage along with two Soul tribe guards.

Tippy's expression was extremely serious.

The exit was completely sealed!

...

On the other side of the entrance, the three Great Elders who had sealed the exit looked at each other.

"Tippy is too young. She actually believed the words of an outsider," Senzo shook his head, his tone tinged with regret. "It's a pity. Among the younger generation, I had high hopes for her."

Tam Sangga inwardly cursed Senzo's hypocrisy, not bothering to look at him again, and said coldly, "Tippy fell for Fang Heng's lies and unfortunately died in the cave with him. Did you all hear that?"

The surrounding members of the tree spirit tribe nodded in agreement, "Yes!"

The Great Elder of the Root tribe chuckled inwardly.

The overall situation was set.

The Great Elder Jeno of the Soul tribe had made a foolish move this time, actually willing to trust a mysterious blood vampire.

The Leaf tribe and Wood tribe had deep-seated enmity with Fang Heng. How could they easily let go of their grievances?

In order to win over the Leaf tribe and Wood tribe, he had reached an agreement with them in advance to find a way to deal with Fang Heng today.

As for Tippy...

She didn't need to die originally.

But unfortunately, she was too young and too trusting of outsiders, which led to her unfortunate fate with Fang Heng.

It's for the best.

From today onwards, the Wood tribe and Leaf tribe would firmly bind themselves to him.

Three against one. The remaining Soul tribe was not to be feared!

The Great Elder of the Root tribe was already imagining himself as the next leader of the tree spirit tribe.

The only thing to be cautious of was probably Fang Heng.

Although they had only met twice, the Great Elder of the Root tribe was certain that Fang Heng was not easy to deal with.

"Could he escape from the seal?"

"Our combined blockade should be enough, right?" Tam Sangga added disdainfully, "The power of the sacred tree branch is indeed formidable, but not enough to break the seal."

"I'm not talking about Tippy. I'm more concerned about that kid Fang Heng. He's full of tricks and we must be on guard against him."

Senzo shook his head and said, "There's no need to worry. The sealed land has been specially treated to resist spatial fluctuations. Fang Heng's spatial abilities cannot allow him to leave the sealed cave."

"That's good to hear. But since things have come to this, we must make the act even more convincing."

"Yes, let's wait here for a while. Afterward, we'll go together to the Soul tribe for our 'rescue mission'."

...

At the other end of the passage, as the external entrances were sealed shut, the concentration of pollution fog inside the Great Hall began to slowly increase.

Tippy relied on her mental strength to activate the vine armor, blocking the external black fog, but the two accompanying Soul tribe guards were struggling. They huddled in a corner of the cave, exerting all their mental strength to prevent the pollution from invading their bodies.

Initially, Fang Heng inspected the external seal with Tippy.

It was quite difficult to deal with.

With Senzo and his group blocking the exit, forcibly breaking the seal would inevitably lead to a direct confrontation with them, gaining no advantage.

Fang Heng lowered his head in thought, focusing on the seal magic array that contained the pollution.

After several attempts, Tippy's heart sank gradually.

She couldn't break it.

She never imagined the depth of hatred the three major tribes harbored towards Fang Heng, even secretly forming agreements and not hesitating to act against their own Soul tribe.

What should she do?

With her current abilities, she couldn't break the external seal.

Tippy couldn't help but look towards Fang Heng, hoping he might have an idea.

When she looked up, she saw a faint smile on Fang Heng's lips.

He was smiling?

"What are you smiling about?"

"Nothing," Fang Heng replied, wiping away the smile from his face. Stepping back from the sealed passage, he continued, "At least the Soul tribe didn't deceive me. Otherwise, my situation would be even worse."
