1528 The Rescue
Fang Heng raised the metal rod in his hand and fought wildly. He relied on the metal rod to continuously blast the Fallen Ones and the Corrupted away.
However, he realized that he could not kill them at all after killing them for half a day!
They were more resilient than his zombie clones!
Were they trying to stall for time?
Seeing more and more Fallen Ones and the Corrupted swarming over, Fang Heng realized that he was gradually sinking into a quagmire and he immediately reacted.
This was troublesome!
These Corrupted and Fallen Ones were all newly born. They were most likely affected by the pair of eyes in the sky and had just been corrupted.
There were many poor people in the slums.
As time passed, more and more poor people were corrupted by the pollution effect or became the Fallen Ones.
Fang Heng glanced at the game hint.
This was bad.
He was stuck on the spot for more than five minutes. The pollution effect on his body had increased greatly, and the remaining time of decay had shortened from the original 50,000 days to only 10,000 days.
Fang Heng had a bad premonition.
He would definitely be in big trouble once he became completely corrupted,
He had to resolve this quickly!
Fang Heng did not waste any more time with the Corrupted and the Fallen Ones. He found a gap and moved back a short distance.
“Buzz!!”
The Book of Oaths floated in the air.
“Chi chi! Chi chi chi!”
The holy remnant chapter flew out of the Book of Oaths, forming streaks of light that danced in the air!
“Boom! Boom Boom!!!”
The remnant chapter hit the Fallen Ones and corrupted creatures and exploded!
[Hint: You have killed an unknown Fallen One.]
[Hint: You have killed an unknown corrupted creature…]
Good!
The game hint finally showed a kill notification!
The holy element had an effect on them!
However, at the same time, the energy stored in the Book of Oaths was quickly consumed!
There wasn’t much energy left in the Book of Oaths and in just a short period of time, it was almost used up.
The Corrupted did not expect Fang Heng to suddenly use his trump card. Seeing the death of their companions, they were afraid of the power of the Book of Oaths and hesitated.
Fang Heng found an opportunity and immediately dashed to a gap on the right, forcefully breaking through.
“Chase after him! If we let him escape, we won’t be able to live!”
Fang Heng continued to run forward. He had just turned to the right for less than half a minute and when he turned another corner, more than thirty Fallen Ones appeared in front of him!
D*mn it!
Why were there so many of them?
He turned around and saw that the Fallen Ones behind had caught up to him again.
A large number of corrupted creatures had almost filled up the path ahead.
“This is troublesome, I am being surrounded like a dumpling.”
Since there was no way to avoid it, then he should just confront them!
He would make his way out!
Fang Heng’s expression was solemn as he gripped the metal rod in his hand tightly again.
Using his fastest speed and without getting entangled with them, he used the last bit of energy left in the Book of Oaths to kill his way out!
“Whoosh!”
Fang Heng made a decisive move. He tapped the ground with his toes and once again charged into the crowd of the Corrupted!
“Boom! Boom Boom!!!”
The flying holy remnant chapter blasted away all the Fallen Ones and corrupted creatures that were charging at him!
However, it only lasted for half a minute before the Book of Oaths’ energy was completely exhausted!
The surrounding Corrupted and Fallen Ones swarmed over like a tide as if they wanted to drown him completely!
“Bang!”
In the chaos, the fist of one of the Fallen Ones struck Fang Heng’s shoulder but was knocked back two steps by the force coming from Fang Heng’s body.
[Hint: The player has been attacked by the Fallen One. The player has received 243 damage points.]
[Hint: The player’s pollution effect has increased.]
[Hint: The player has been attacked by a corrupted creature…]
Fang Heng glanced at the game hints and immediately realized that the situation was getting worse.
Although the enemy was weak, he was surrounded by a large number of corrupted creatures and Fallen Ones. It was difficult to guarantee that he would not be injured in a chaotic battle.
By relying on the terrifying HP recovery effect of the undying body, the damage could naturally be ignored. But what about the corruption effect?
Unfortunately, he had been dragged into the quagmire by the enemy. Fang Heng could not be bothered to probe his pollution status in his sea of consciousness. He could only try to avoid harm and escape along the streets in the direction of the slums.
Fang Heng rushed forward for five minutes, but the number of corrupted creatures in front of him did not decrease at all. Instead, it increased.
This was bad. He had to quickly think of a way to break free!
Fang Heng had no choice but to stop and condense his spiritual power again. He formed a seal with his hand and prepared to use the Bones’ summoning skill.
“Fang Heng! This way!”
What?
Suddenly, Fang Heng heard a loud shout. Then, he saw a figure climbing down from behind a wall on the right not far away.
“Pada.”
A bald-headed man with a fierce look jumped down from the wall behind him and charged at him like a raging bull.
The Corrupted and Fallen Ones that were in his path were knocked away one after another!
This kind of rough combat technique was a perfect match for his physique!
Fang Heng’s pupils contracted.
The bald man whom he had met in front of the bar before!
When Sun Zhaoyu saw Fang Heng, his eyes flashed with joy.
D*mn it! He had finally found him!
It was Luo Xu who suggested that they follow the people from the Occult Investigation Committee. As expected, they found Fang Heng!
Sun Zhaoyu rushed in front of Fang Heng and shouted, “I’ll stop them. Luo Xu is at the east gate! Go behind the wall and meet up with him! Hurry up and go!”
“Hmm?”
“Climb over the wall! Leave the rest to me!”
Fang Heng was stunned.
At first, when he saw Baldy, he thought he was an enemy. He did not expect Baldy to take two steps forward after he finished speaking and help him block the dense swarm of Fallen Ones and corrupted creatures.
What was going on? What was this situation?
Fang Heng had ten thousand question marks in his mind.
Aren’t they the Fallen Ones?
Why were they fighting among themselves?
When he looked again, the game hint appeared on his retina again.
[Hint: The player’s current faction mission has changed.]
Mission title: Meet up.
Mission description: You have been informed that the Fallen Ones are looking for you, and Luo Xu is currently in the northern part of the slums.
Mission requirement: Meet up with Luo Xu.
Just like the previous missions, there were no punishments or rewards.
Fang Heng did not leave immediately. Instead, he looked at the bald man warily and asked, “You’re not with them? Why are you looking for me?”
Hearing Fang Heng’s question, Sun Zhaoyu raised his eyebrows in surprise.
He wanted to explain something, but before he could say it, he was punched by the Corrupted next to him.
“D*mn it, have you forgotten? That ritual!”
Sun Zhaoyu shouted and punched the Fallen Ones.
“You are the demonic seed! Go find Luo Xu! You’ll know when you find him! If the people of the Revolution Society find you first, we will all be finished!”
Fang Heng stared at Sun Zhaoyu.
Each keyword struck a nerve in him.
The ritual!
The demonic seed!
Luo Xu!
The Revolution Society!
The scene of the mysterious ritual appeared in Fang Heng’s mind again.
