1446 The Passage
In the passage, after the assembly line was set up, Fang Heng used the flying ability of the vampire’s bat form to continue moving forward along the dense sea of white bones.
In other words, he was bullying the skeletal creatures because they could not fly and did not have the ability to remote attack.
There were simply too many Ice Bones below!
After flying at high speed for more than ten minutes, there was still a dense of bones below. There was no end to it.
Fang Heng felt that he had overestimated himself.
With his current soul power, he could not pack these bones away.
He could only farm as much as he could.
Elite-level undead bones had extraordinary combat strength.
Fang Heng didn’t think about anything else and continued flying forward.
After flying at high speed for more than half an hour, Fang Heng raised his head and looked ahead.
There it was!
Not far away, there was another protruding rock platform.
Was it the exit?
Fang Heng immediately adjusted his body and flew toward the high platform.
Someone was there?
Just as he stepped onto the high platform and had yet to return to his human form, Fang Heng heard someone’s voice coming from the front of the high platform.
Humans?
Who could it be?
Was it also one of the people who participated in this Hunting Day?
There was a group of people walking toward him.
Fang Heng’s heart skipped a beat, but he did not return to his human form immediately. Instead, he quickly concealed his body and hung upside down on the rock roof, hiding in the shadows and carefully observing.
There was a large open space on the high platform. In the distance, a large team was discussing and slowly approaching him.
Fang Heng hid in the dark and listened to their conversation. He guessed that they were also there to participate in the Frost Hell Hunting Day.
It looked like their team was huge, with a total of fifty to sixty people.
Eh?
Fang Heng couldn’t help but let out a soft gasp when he saw the team clearly after they got closer.
He was surprised to find that this group of people seemed to have used some special tool to open an invisible barrier around the team.
The frozen vengeful spirits and Ice Bones outside the barrier ignored their team’s presence.
How did they do it?
Was it also because of the soul crystal’s effect?
“It seems to be isolating the aura as well.”
Fang Heng observed carefully and found that the barrier had some kind of effect of isolating the aura. It did not have any offensive or defensive effects.
Once undead creatures entered the barrier, they would immediately attack the team.
Due to the dense density of the undead creatures in the passage, the team couldn’t completely avoid them. Even with the barrier, the team still had to clear out the undead creatures in front of them. As a result, their speed of moving forward was limited.
Despite his curiosity, Fang Heng thought it was better to avoid trouble.
Right now, he had made too many enemies in this area, so it was better to keep a low profile.
He had originally planned to wait for the group of people to leave before going out to take a look. He did not expect that when the group of people passed through the passage below, their discussion would reach his ears again.
“Gano should have started as well, right? Gano’s personality is not calm enough. I’m afraid he won’t be able to handle it if he leads the team over…”
“Why? It’s just the Rand Chamber of Commerce. We’ve investigated them many times. They don’t have many guards. Moreover, they don’t even know what the soul crystal is for.”
Hmm?
Were they talking about the Rand Chamber of Commerce?
Fang Heng frowned and immediately felt that something was wrong. He pricked up his ears and continued to eavesdrop on what they were saying.
Another middle-aged man with a full beard on the team said mockingly, “You still have the cheek to say that? If it weren’t for some idiot who offered to buy the soul crystal at a high price last time, Wendy wouldn’t have noticed that something was wrong. We would have gotten the soul crystal long ago, and there wouldn’t be so many problems later.”
Soul stone?
Fang Heng’s heart skipped a beat again.
Was it the soul stone that Wendy had given him?
From the meaning of these people’s words, they seemed to want this soul stone very much.
“Don’t worry, I’ve already spread the word that we’ll be targeting Fang Heng here. The people from the Rand Chamber of Commerce will never think that our target isn’t Fang Heng, but the soul stone in their hands. Looking at the time, Gano should have already made his move. By the time when we finish dealing with these things along the way, Gano will be almost just in time to come and join us.”
Fang Heng frowned and wanted to continue listening, but the few people in front of him had already gone further and further away. They gradually entered the passage in front of them, and their voices became even more blurry and difficult to recognize.
Helplessly, Fang Heng flew closer and tried to catch up.
This group of people seemed to have noticed something. They slowed down and stopped in front of a rock wall at the end of the road, guarding the surroundings.
Fang Heng did not dare to get too close, so he observed from afar.
Eh?
The group seemed to have manipulated something on the rock wall, and the rock wall moved to the sides, revealing an inward passage opening.
After everyone had entered the wall, the passage opening closed again and returned to its original state.
“Is it a secret passage? Interesting…”
Fang Heng was even more curious. He descended from the sky and transformed back into his human form, landing in front of the rock wall to observe.
The rock wall was extremely sturdy.
There was no obvious gap with the naked eye.
How could he open the passage opening?
Fang Heng looked around again.
There were no traces of any traps at all.
“Strange, how did they enter the secret passage?”
No!
Fang Heng was muttering to himself as he carefully recalled the conversation between the group of people just now. He realized that there might be trouble at the Rand Chamber of Commerce.
The path ahead was blocked by a huge rock wall, and he couldn’t find the exit for the time being. The zombie clones couldn’t be summoned there to dig a passage for him in a short time.
Fang Heng didn’t even know who his enemy was.
No, he had to go back to the Rand Chamber of Commerce first.
With that thought, Fang Heng transformed into his bat form again.
Since the enemy had cleared a small number of undead creatures along the way, Fang Heng could easily determine their route.
Fang Heng immediately followed their movements and went back in the opposite direction.
He continued forward along the passage!
Relying on the rapid flight ability of the bat form and the life aura isolation ability of the soul stone, Fang Heng flew quickly in the cave for more than 20 minutes before entering a huge cave that was more than ten times wider.
He had arrived!
It was the exit area!
Inside the giant-sized cavern, many player teams and NPC teams were clearing out the undead creatures purposefully.
The teams were clearly separated by a certain distance. They were farming monsters in the iron mine and were on guard against each other.
Fang Heng returned to his human form and put on a mask.
This area should be one of the main entrances to the underground shady line. Many teams had chosen to farm monsters there.
Many players noticed Fang Heng who had suddenly appeared and cast him probing gazes, wondering why he was alone there.
Fang Heng ignored everyone’s probing gazes and followed the crowded place to find the exit to the outside world.
He was going to the Rand Chamber of Commerce!
Fang Heng took out the map and glanced at it briefly, then immediately rushed toward the valley where the Rand Chamber of Commerce was located.
