Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 1187 - 1187 The Abyss

1187 The Abyss

“Yes, he might not have lied to us. I memorized the directions before we came here. We followed an arc along the path ahead. The saying ‘inner circle and outer circle’ should be correct.”

Qiu Yaokang closed his eyes and thought for a moment. He pointed to an exit of the hall and said, “It should be there. We should be able to go further from there.”

Sandy grabbed the royal guard on the ground, “I’m asking you, are the ghosts in that direction?”

The guard nodded and looked at the entrance of the passage with fear, “Don’t go in. There are really ghosts there. I’m not lying to you.”

“Swish!”

Wangnet pulled out his sword and killed the remaining guard who had fainted.

Then, he placed the sword on the neck of the royal guard who was shivering.

“You’re quite lucky. Lead the way and bring us to the ghostly beings. We’ll let you go once we find the entrance to the Imperial mausoleum. Otherwise, you will go and accompany them now. It’s your choice.”

“Don’t, don’t kill me…”

The guard’s lips trembled a few times as if he had made a great decision. He said, “I’ll take you in. Don’t kill me.”

Fang Heng shrugged his shoulders helplessly.

Why did their group of people look so much like the villains?

Under the guidance of the royal guard, the group continued to move forward along the passage.

As the tunnel went deeper, the ghost fog around them became thinner.

The royal guard cleared his throat and said with a trembling voice, “Everyone, we really can’t continue to go in.”

The passage ahead had become ancient, and it had fallen into darkness. It seemed that no one had entered it for a long time.

Everyone exchanged glances.

It seemed that the guard was not lying.

The inner circle should be right ahead.

“Stop talking nonsense! Let’s go!”

“No, I can’t go in, I…”

Wangnet frowned and waved his hand, knocking the guard out again.

“Let’s go in and take a look.”

Everyone lit up their flashlights to illuminate the front.

Fang Heng followed behind Wangnet and continued to move forward along the passage. He walked forward for a while until he saw light again. The exit of the passage was connected to a huge abyss.

Fang Heng and the others were standing on a raised platform on the rock wall of the abyss.

He took a few steps forward and looked down at the platform. It was a bottomless darkness.

On the right side, a spiral stone staircase was built along the rock wall. The stone steps were built to be very wide, more than three meters long, and one could not see the end of it at a glance.

It was the first time everyone had seen such a structure, and they were all shocked.

Tang Mingyue thought of something and whispered in Fang Heng’s ear, “Could this be the place where the abyssal demons are buried?”

“Yes, it’s possible.”

Wangnet observed the situation for a moment and nodded, “We came to the right place. It’s just as I’ve heard. The Imperial mausoleum is built deep underground. This should be the entrance to the Imperial mausoleum.”

Fang Heng looked down again.

It was a bottomless pit.

Releasing his perception, he felt a mysterious power fluctuation coming from below.

“Can you feel it?”

Fang Heng looked back at Wangnet, who was standing beside him.

“Yes, a very dangerous energy fluctuation.” Wangnet squinted his eyes, his face full of excitement. “There are indeed secrets hidden in the mausoleum.”

Fang Heng suggested, “Why don’t you stay here and I fly down to take a look?”

He could fly in bat form, and Wangnet had a special ability to float in the air.

However, Tang Mingyue and the others could not do that.

For safety’s sake, he could first fly down in his vampire form to see what the situation was.

“Alright.”

Fang Heng immediately transformed into a bat in front of everyone and flew toward the front of the platform.

The bottom of the abyss was pitch-black, giving people a strong sense of uneasiness from the bottom of their hearts.

Fang Heng had just jumped down when he raised his eyebrows.

He heard a strange whistling sound coming from the bottom of the abyss.

Not good!

The hair on Fang Heng’s body stood up and he immediately felt a sense of danger. He quickly adjusted his flight trajectory and dodged to the side.

“Huu!!”

The next second, a strange and strong spiral wind blew up from the bottom of the abyss.

In his bat form, Fang Heng lost control of his body at once and was blown toward the right side of the cliff by the strong wind. He hit the rock wall hard.

“BOOM!”

After suffering a violent impact, Fang Heng was forced to return to his human form. At the same time, he felt dizzy.

...

“BOOM!”

“Thump thump!”

He was hit back and forth!

Fang Heng felt that his body was constantly being hit and fell into endless dizziness. In a daze, he suddenly realized that there were game prompts flashing quickly on his retina.

[Hint: You have been affected by the air current. Your impact damage is -661. You have entered a dazed state for 3.69 seconds.]

[Hint: You have been affected…]

[Hint: You have been affected by the air current. Your impact damage is -475. You have entered a dazed state for 3.24 seconds.]

[Hint: Due to the effect of the undying body, your dizzy state has been removed.]

The moment the passive skill was triggered, Fang Heng instantly woke up from dizziness. He grabbed the rock wall tightly almost out of reflex to avoid being swept away by the spiral airflow again.

After taking a look at the game log, Fang Heng couldn’t help but take a deep breath, his whole body aching.

Even after deducting the vitality attribute reduction, there was still a 3-second stun.

...

Fang Heng rejoiced secretly.

If it wasn’t for the undying body’s ability to remove negative effects, he would’ve been knocked unconscious again and again and would’ve been hit by the wind until he died.

In the distance, Tang Mingyue saw Fang Heng being carried back and forth by the strong wind and hitting the wall. Seeing that he had finally stopped, she couldn’t help but shout, “Fang Heng! Are you alright?”

“I’m fine.”

The undying body’s effect began to activate, and the external and impact injuries he had suffered earlier quickly healed.

The strong wind dissipated, and Fang Heng jumped down from the rock wall and landed on the stone steps built along the stone wall. He waved at the people on the platform.

Wangnet immediately led Tang Mingyue and the others up the stone steps to meet him.

Fang Heng then tried to take out several different props from his backpack and threw them into the deep darkness.

This time, the gale did not appear again.

Fang Heng tried to analyze, “It seems to be a special airflow targeted at flying life forms. This airflow is strange. Most likely, the builder considered that someone could invade by flying and blocked this invasion method.”

Wangnet looked down with a bit of fear and said, “It seems like we can’t fly down and take the shortcut.”

“Yes, we’ll walk.”

“Alright, there’s no rush. We still have time.”

The group discussed this for a while and decided to adopt the primitive method. With Wangnet leading the way, they slowly walked down the stone steps and explored carefully step by step.

Following the passage down, it seemed to be a smooth journey.

Sandy followed at the back of the group, looking around from time to time to check for something.

Tang Mingyue was walking in front of Sandy. As she walked, she suddenly realized that there was no one behind her. She could not help but turn her head and look at Sandy, who had stopped in front of a broken stone step not far away.
