1653 The Lake
While he was thinking, Fang Heng entered the large factory that was temporarily built by the Federation.
Fang Heng carefully checked the commission related to reconnaissance.
Some of the details revealed the direction of the Federation’s actions.
Judging from the mission announcement, the Federation rarely explored the eastern region, while the southern region had the highest level of exploration and security.
The number of patrol teams sent out was also the largest.
Just as he was wondering, Fang Heng heard the roar of the truck engine.
Looking into the distance, he saw a large number of military vehicles leaving the northern exit of the camp.
Eh?
Fang Heng couldn’t help but feel puzzled.
How strange.
The military vehicle was heading north.
The Federation only had one sentry tower in the north.
There were so many military vehicles, and they seemed to be carrying a lot of materials.
What were they going to do?
Who cares!
Level up first!
Fang Heng shook his head and warned himself not to be affected by external factors. He should focus on what was in front of him and focus on leveling up.
The southern region was the place where the Federation sent out the most scouting commissions. It was very easy to encounter troublesome players.
These military vehicles were heading north.
If they went to the north to farm monsters, there was a chance that they would run into the Federation, which would easily lead to conflict.
The only option left for him was the west.
After deciding on the route, Fang Heng immediately controlled his zombie clones to start moving.
In the distance, the Lickers hiding in the lower layer of the desert crawled out of the sand and ran towards the west, quickly spreading out to explore.
Not long after, the zombie clone immediately sent a game notification that it was injured.
[Hint: The player’s zombie clone (Licker form) has been attacked by the mutant giant crocodile…]
It was here!
Fang Heng’s heart skipped a beat, and he walked toward the outskirts of the federal camp.
After leaving the campsite and confirming that there was no one around, Fang Heng transformed into his bat form again and flew towards the west.
…
Soon, Fang Heng followed the Licker’s trail and arrived at a small forest.
The forest was not deep. From a high vantage point, one could see the lake behind the forest.
At the edge of the lake, there were two or three mutant giant crocodiles wandering around.
After the mutation, the crocodile’s body was seven meters long.
It seemed that the mutated crocodile creature they encountered last night had appeared from this area.
Fang Heng tried to control a few Lickers to approach the lake’s shore to test the strength of the mutated crocodile.
The mutated crocodiles’ combat style had changed significantly in the advantageous environment of their habitat. After discovering the enemy’s invasion, they hid in shallow water from the shore and lay in ambush below the water.
When the Licker approached, the mutant giant crocodile suddenly rose from the water and bit the Licker, dragging it into the water.
The Licker tried to struggle.
However, the mutated crocodile’s bite force was astonishing. Coupled with its body weight, which was seven to eight times that of the Licker, it easily dragged the Licker toward the deeper waters.
Soon, the surface of the lake returned to peace.
Fang Heng frowned.
From the game notification, the Licker was not dead yet.
However, the water was filled with a large number of mutated crocodiles, and the Lickers could not escape at all!
Fang Heng pondered.
Since they couldn’t fight underwater, he would try to lure them out.
Fang Heng took out a high-energy bomb from his backpack and threw it at the calm lake in the distance.
“Plop.”
The high-energy bomb fell into the water.
“Boom!!!”
Three seconds later, a huge splash appeared on the surface of the lake!
A large number of mutated crocodiles hiding under the water’s surface were triggered. They surfaced from the water and crawled out of the shallow water.
They were here!
Fang Heng controlled the Lickers that had gathered near the riverbank to charge forward!
The red torrent once again crashed into the group of mutated forms!
For a moment, Fang Heng’s vision was flooded with battle information again.
Compared to last night, the mutated crocodiles were even more difficult to deal with.
Although they still used physical attacks, in the current environment, the mutated crocodiles preferred to drag their enemies to the surface of the water to fight!
After entering the water, the Licker’s mobility was greatly affected, and it was unable to break free.
Fang Heng watched as the Lickers were gradually dragged into the water, unable to come out again.
The number of Lickers began to decrease.
“Not yet. I have to lure them further away.”
Fang Heng muttered to himself. He looked around and controlled the Lickers to retreat into the forest, preparing to lure them further away.
However, the mutated crocodiles seemed to have seen through Fang Heng’s trick.
Just like the mutant desert flying snakes they encountered before, they would abandon their enemies once they left their living environment and immediately return.
This was a little troublesome.
Fang Heng unconsciously rubbed his chin.
Just like the desert environment they had encountered previously, the mutated forms were used to their environment to fight.
Forget it, he could only take it slow.
Fang Heng adjusted the zombie formation again.
“Chi, chi chi…”
Over 80 Lickers quickly retreated into the forest behind them, forming huge calluses in the forest.
Fusion Tyrant form change!
Previously, the zombies had already transported the weapons and ammo boxes into the forest.
Last night, Fang Heng collected a wave of high-energy weapons and ammunition from the Western District Federation.
There was still a lot left.
He estimated that he could use it for another two or three days.
Start!
The fusion Tyrant forms stepped out of the flesh cocoon one after another, picking up heavy beam weapons from their weapon boxes and aiming them forward.
The Lickers once again charged forward!
The mutated crocodiles continued to attack as usual, trying to drag the Licker into the lake and eat it.
However, the situation was slightly different this time.
“Whoosh! Whoosh!!!”
At the back, the energy light beam shot out from the muzzle after a short period of charging!!!
“Boom! Boom Boom!! Boom!!!”
The continuous explosions caused by the energy beam weapons blew up the shallow area!
Before the mutated crocodiles could drag the Lickers into the water, they were blasted apart.
The Lickers immediately counterattacked, biting and killing the mutated crocodiles.
After changing tactics and combining the damage output from the fusion Tyrant form, the Lickers once again took control of the situation.
However…
The efficiency of farming monsters was too low!
Fang Heng quickly glanced at the game notification.
Similar to the mutant desert flying snake, the mutant giant crocodile did not drop any mutation crystals after death.
It was indeed a waste of ammunition.
He had to think of a way to increase his farming efficiency.
Fang Heng let the zombie clones hang on for the time being, then transformed into the bat form and flew high into the sky, overlooking the entire battlefield from high above.
After a brief observation, he vaguely felt that there was something wrong with the lake.
Should he go in and take a look?
Perhaps he could find a better terrain to farm monsters.
Fang Heng flew high up into the sky, gliding over the calm surface of the water.
Looking down from the sky, Fang Heng could see the huge black shadow that occasionally flitted across the calm water.
It was at least 20 meters long!
Super-sized giant crocodile.
An elite-level monster!
It might even be at the commander level!
