1529 A Dilemma
“Hurry up!”
More and more Fallen Ones gathered from the back of the passage.
Sun Zhaoyu clenched his fists tightly and followed up with a blast toward the ground.
“Boom!!!”
Cracks appeared on the ground, and a tall rock barrier rose from the ground, temporarily blocking the footsteps of the Fallen Ones.
Fang Heng came back to his senses and saw that Sun Zhaoyu’s close combat ability was extremely strong. Those normal Corrupted could not break through his defense at all, and it seemed that he would not be affected by the decay effect. He immediately turned around and climbed up the wall that Sun Zhaoyu came from.
Don’t worry about anything else, run first!
Fang Heng climbed over the wall and quickly looked around after landing.
An open area.
Run!
Fang Heng once again ran forward quickly, thinking quickly at the same time.
Viona wasn’t lying to him!
Fang Heng was now very sure that this world was closely related to the ritual on his body.
The Fallen Ones’ search for him was also related to the ritual.
What the hell was that so-called Revolution Society?
When did this third party appear?
Were the clouds in the sky and the pair of eyes created by the Revolution Society?
There was also the ‘demonic seed’ that Baldy mentioned earlier.
What was that?
Baldy and Luo Xu’s behavior was strange. Fang Heng did not dare to believe them completely just by listening to the bald man’s one-sided story. Luo Xu knew some things. However, he could not confirm whether the other party was an ally or not.
It was most likely a trap!
Right now, Fang Heng quickly thought of two completely different choices.
The first choice.
He would join the Occult Joint Investigation Committee and seek help from Shan Fucai and Ruan Ziying.
From the perspective of factions, the corrupted clouds in the sky and the Fallen Ones were most likely on the side of the demons, and the other side was the Occult Committee.
With such a huge commotion in the slums, the government and the investigation committee would intervene.
Finding them would most likely save his life.
But…
Fang Heng quickly rejected this choice.
Judging from the situation of the Occult Joint Committee, the best outcome after returning with them was to be strictly imprisoned and interrogated. He did not know if Ruan Ziying had strong connections.
More importantly, he had just snatched away Albra’s Pupil not long ago.
What if the people from the Occult Joint Investigation Committee forced him to do things against his will?
There was such a thing as spitting out something that was in his mouth?
Also, the origin of the demon bloodline in his body was unknown. Once it was discovered…
Fang Heng felt that he had been labeled as a villain, and it was difficult to cooperate with them.
The second choice.
He would choose Luo Xu’s Corrupted faction.
Find Luo Xu, figure out what happened, and take the initiative.
The risk was equally great!
On the surface, the game mission hint might be hinting that Luo Xu and he were in the same camp.
However, this sort of misguided backstabbing had happened countless times in the past, and many players had complained about it in the forums.
The origin of Luo Xu’s corruption was unknown, and the contamination in his body was even stranger. It was very likely a huge trap. If he ran over directly, he might just be a sheep entering the tiger’s mouth!
Damn it! Why did it feel like both choices were bad?
“This is troublesome!”
Fang Heng gritted his teeth and decided to trust no one but himself!
Anyway, he had already obtained the Phoenix Firs. He did not care about the ritual and decay of his body.
This world was too scary. He had to think of a way to escape from the slums and stall for time. After the three-day game time limit ended tomorrow, he had to find a way to contact Ruan Ziying and leave this world. Then, he could make a comeback when his strength increased.
This plan seemed to be the safest, but it was also fraught with danger.
The Occult Joint Investigation Committee and the Fallen Ones’ faction were looking for him everywhere like crazy, and there was also the Revolution Society which appeared out of the blue.
Under the pursuit of three parties, it was extremely difficult to escape!
It was better than handing his fate to someone else!
Having made up his mind, Fang Heng quickly turned the corner and ran to the right.
Luo Xu’s people were on the east side of the city, so he had to turn back to the west side to avoid them!
However, this way, he would have to return to the direction of the broken church.
Run!
He had just run forward for five minutes when he heard a sizzling sound coming from behind.
The Fallen Ones!
They were chasing after him again!
Under the surveillance of the pair of eyes in the air, Fang Heng had a feeling that he had no way to hide.
Fang Heng took a deep breath.
He couldn’t avoid it.
Let’s fight.
Beneath his feet, the mud churned as green-gray palms emerged from the mud.
The zombie clones crawled out of the ground with a stagger.
Previously, when he was stealing the Phoenix Firs, all the zombie clones followed the passage back to the Zombie Apocalypse.
Before he went to look for Gan Honghua, Fang Heng had set up batches of zombie clones to be resurrected one after another for safety reasons.
This was the first batch.
The second batch of zombie clones would be revived in 20 minutes!
Originally, the zombie clones were used to deal with the Holy Court. Now, Fang Heng only hoped that they could hold back this group of Fallen Ones.
It didn’t seem like there was much hope.
Fang Heng roughly estimated in his heart. Suddenly, he heard someone calling his name not far away.
“Fang Heng! Over here! This way!”
Huh?!
Fang Heng’s heart skipped a beat and he immediately looked in the direction of the voice.
It was Yu Jiayuan!
He saw Yu Jiayuan sticking her head out from a room at the end of the passage not far away and waving at him anxiously.
Why was she there?
Whoosh!
Fang Heng didn’t have time to think. He immediately left the zombie clones in place and flashed toward the residential area on the right.
“Bang!!”
Fang Heng entered the room and immediately locked the door behind him.
“Fang Heng!”
In the room, there were more than ten people other than Yu Jiayuan.
They were all believers of the Holy Court whom he had met a few times in the church.
When the believers saw Fang Heng, their eyes revealed a look of surprise.
They all recognized Fang Heng. Previously, they had seen Fang Heng using holy power in the broken church. They had also received instructions from Gan Honghua to treat Fang Heng respectfully, so they all regarded Fang Heng as a high-ranking member of the Holy Court from the Otherworld.
Fang Heng glanced at the believers and nodded at them. He then looked at Yu Jiayuan and asked, “What’s going on here?”
Hearing Fang Heng’s question, Yu Jiayuan felt extremely bitter.
What was going on?
She also wanted to ask Fang Heng what was going on!
Everyone else was fine. Why did he have to make such a big commotion when it was his turn to carry out the pollution removal ritual?
Fang Heng saw Yu Jiayuan’s expression and immediately understood.
Right, there was also Gan Honghua!
Gan Honghua must have known what had happened.
Fang Heng focused his gaze on the group of believers in the corner of the room and asked, “Where’s Gan Honghua? Isn’t he here? Where did he go?”
“When the explosion happened, Mr. Gan and I escaped together. Halfway through, Mr. Gan was affected by the contamination. He’s already…”
