Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 2271 Strength

Chapter 2271  Strength

Zet didn't pay too much attention to Fang Heng's warning.

After all, this was just a lower-dimensional world.

No big deal.

Gesturing for his subordinates to leave the camp area, Zet began to prepare for the aggressive creatures that the magic array would soon attract.

Soon, faint dots appeared from the mist surrounding the camp. These were the Fog Hidden Moths, unique creatures inhabiting this world. Larger than typical moths in normal dimensions, they used a special acidic liquid as their primary means of attack, often hiding within the mist to launch surprise assaults.

Dealing with them was troublesome due to their ability to hide. However, now, a large number of Fog Hidden Moths flocked towards the camp, their presence no longer concealed as they buzzed loudly, losing their hidden effect.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

Nature spells arrows streaked through the forest, swiftly piercing through the airborne Fog Hidden Moths. Unable to dodge, they fell one by one to the ground, taken down by the spells unleashed by the Leaf tribe.

For the Leaf tribe, dealing with these low-level creatures was no issue. Often, a single arrow could penetrate through multiple Fog Hidden Moths.

Zet glanced back at the camp. The structure was basic wood, with many gaps. Even standing outside, Zet could easily see Fang Heng inside, controlling the main magic array.

At first glance, Fang Heng didn't seem to display any suspicious behavior.

"Huh?"

Once again turning his attention to the external battlefield, Zet couldn't help but furrow his brow.

This wasn't his first time entering a dimensional world to gather dimensional energy.

But today seemed different.

The speed at which the Fog Hidden Moths appeared had noticeably increased.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz...!"

A large number of Fog Hidden Moths emerged from the mist, enveloping the temporary campsite with their buzzing sounds.

So many?

Zet raised his hand and unleashed a scattered arrow with his mental strength, clearing out a large area of the approaching Fog Hidden Moths.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Zet warned, "Be careful! There are a lot of Fog Hidden Moths. Don't let them get close to the camp!"

"Understood!"

Meanwhile, Fang Heng and six other members of the Leaf tribe were inside the camp, jointly controlling the dimensional absorption magic array.

They were far from reaching the limit of what the magic array could activate.

Fang Heng glanced at the Leaf tribe guards outside. They seemed to be holding up well, able to endure the situation.

Well, then let's give them a little more intensity!

With that in mind, Fang Heng remotely controlled a zombie clone located in the basement area.

In a secret room excavated underground, Fang Heng's blood shadow clone had already placed an empty sacrificial jar in the center of the branch magic array.

"Buzz..."

The sacrificial jar immediately emitted a faint light, starting to absorb dimensional energy.

Almost simultaneously, the other six members of the Leaf tribe who were controlling the magic array felt something and opened their eyes, looking towards Fang Heng.

"No need to panic. The magic array is advancing to the next stage, which will increase some mental strength consumption. These are all normal phenomena. Just continue to maintain the operation of the magic array," explained Fang Heng.

Hearing Fang Heng's explanation, everyone calmed down and continued to close their eyes, focusing on operating the magic array.

These Leaf tribe members were just temporary recruits gathered for this purpose. Their understanding of the magic array was limited to injecting mental strength into it.

The Leaf tribe recruits didn't think much about it. After all, Fang Heng was the one who arranged and modified the magic array. If Fang Heng said there was no problem, then there was no problem.

Meanwhile, the Leaf tribe guards who were closely monitoring Fang Heng showed a serious expression. They exchanged glances.

While they couldn't comprehend everything, they could clearly see the efficiency of the sacrificial jar absorbing dimensional energy.

The improvement was significant!

Effective!

Amazing!

This magic array was truly effective!

Outside, Zet felt some pressure as the magic array accelerated its operation.

There were too many!

Fog Hidden Moths swarmed out densely from the surrounding mist.

The density of Fog Hidden Moths had increased at least threefold compared to before!

And the number was still increasing!

Although individual Fog Hidden Moths had low strength, their sheer numbers were overwhelming!

As the enemy numbers increased, the mental strength consumption of the Leaf tribe guards would also rise.

They could hold out for a short time, but seeing the trend of the Fog Hidden Moths' numbers not decreasing but instead accelerating...

Not good.

If this continued, their mental strength recovery speed might not keep up.

Zet realized he had overestimated himself a bit.

Some Leaf tribe members had already started taking pills to accelerate their mental strength recovery.

Zet glanced back towards the camp and signaled to one of Fang Heng's subordinates who was monitoring him.

The subordinate, upon meeting Zet's gaze, immediately left the camp and approached to report.

"How's the situation?"

"Fang Heng is still operating the magic array. So far, I haven't noticed anything unusual," said the Leaf tribe guard, admiring the operation of the magic array. He nodded and continued, "Based on my rough estimate, the modified magic array's absorption efficiency is about 5.5 times higher than before."

5.5 times?

That much!?

Zet's pupils contracted suddenly.

The speed at which various tribes absorbed dimensional energy didn't differ much.

If their Leaf tribe could increase the absorption efficiency by 5.5 times...

It would be a huge advantage!

Zet's breath involuntarily became heavier, and he nodded, saying, "Well done. Continue monitoring and observe closely!"

"Yes!"

Turning back, Zet looked around again.

The situation was becoming dire...

The speed at which Fog Hidden Moths appeared was increasing.

His mission was originally to prevent Fang Heng from causing trouble, but unexpectedly, it seemed he was struggling first?

Should he go back and tell Fang Heng they couldn't hold out outside and ask him to wait?

Zet felt a bit embarrassed.

But...

A large number of densely packed Fog Hidden Moths were slowly approaching the camp.

And their density was still increasing!

The Leaf tribe guards could fight from a distance without getting hurt, but once a large number of enemies approached...

It would be troublesome.

Just as he was thinking, Zet suddenly frowned.

What was that?

Behind them, the zombies that had gathered outside the temporary camp were now forming pulsating flesh cocoons one by one.

"Chi! Chi! Chi!"

In an instant, Lickers burst out of the cocoons, swiftly rushing out from each flesh cocoon towards the perimeter and pouncing on the surrounding moth swarm!

While Fang Heng was controlling the magic array, he was also keeping an eye on the external situation.

He knew the Leaf tribe would likely not hold out, so he had already prepared to act in advance.

But this time, it was a bit troublesome.

And to make matters worse, they encountered flying creatures.

Dealing with airborne creatures would require more effort from the Lickers, which would waste time.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

The group of Lickers swiftly joined the front lines, leaping high into the air and pouncing on the Fog Hidden Moths, knocking them down from the sky.

The Fog Hidden Moths flying towards the camp immediately diverted their attention to the group of Lickers, beginning to attack them.
