Chapter 1787 Border Mining Area
By the time Fang Heng and Lu Yanlong rushed over, a large group of Lickers were already following them.
More zombie clones were still on their way.
Starfish Company occupied this place about two days ago.
It was a small teleportation point on an obelisk.
As this place was too far away from the federal camp, without Fang Heng and the others, they would not be able to open the teleportation passage. Therefore, it was very inconvenient for Starfish Company to travel here. For the time being, they only placed four guards here.
The remaining mining team of Starfish Company was still guarding the mine one kilometer away.
“Mr. Fang, we’ve checked. No players have explored this area for the time being, and we were the first ones to discover it.”
“Alright.”
Fang Heng jumped down from the fusion Tyrant form, squatted down, and began to check.
The magic array of the teleportation passage on the obelisk was intact.
He only needed to construct a simple passageway.
Fang Heng did a rough check and immediately started to build a passage to the Zombie Apocalypse.
“The Federation has set up a spatial fluctuation sensing tower in the main camp. They will most likely be able to sense the spatial fluctuations in the teleportation passage here. However, this place is far from the camp. It will probably take a long time for them to come and investigate. I have already sent people to guard the periphery. If there is any situation, they will report it in time.”
Lu Yanlong explained and pointed at a dense forest on the right side of the teleportation point.
“Mr. Fang, look over there. The mine I mentioned to you is over there, about one kilometer away. On the right is a swamp, and there is a small mausoleum in the center of the swamp.”
Lu Yanlong sighed and continued, “We’ve tried a few times. As long as we get close, we’ll attract the hatred of the mutated forms in the swamp. Therefore, we haven’t been able to mine normally. It’s very troublesome.”
“Yes, I roughly understand.”
Fang Heng was almost done with his preparations. He raised his head and looked at the forest in the distance.
It seemed that it would be difficult to complete the mining in a short period of time by relying on Starfish Company alone.
“Buzz…”
A blue teleportation portal opened before everyone’s eyes.
The few players from Starfish Company who were guarding the side immediately retreated to the side and kept a close watch.
Lu Yanlong looked at the completed teleportation passage and felt a little excited.
Mr. Fang was amazing. He took care of the teleportation passage with one move.
With the teleportation passage, the follow-up support from Starfish Company could arrive quickly, especially the transportation of resources!
They could use Mr. Fang’s teleportation passage to deliver the goods and avoid the high ‘customs duties’ of the Federation.
Seeing that the teleportation passage was running smoothly, Fang Heng clapped his hands, stood up, and asked Lu Yanlong, “By the way, did you mention that you encountered a commander-level creature in the swamp?”
“Yes, I found it when I was exploring the mine. It’s just outside the mausoleum.”
“Let’s go and take a look.”
“Alright.”
Lu Yanlong said a few words to the two Starfish Company players who were guarding the mine, then brought Fang Heng to the mine area.
About a kilometer away, a small forest area was cleared out, and there were more than ten large machines piled up in the empty space.
A mining team of about 30 people from Starfish Company was currently guarding the surroundings.
The team had been tormented by the swamp creatures for the past two days.
There was clearly a mine that could be mined not far ahead.
However, mining ores would pass through the swamp.
Every time the party tried to pass by, they would be attacked by the swamp mutated lizards.
The player team had tried several methods to avoid the attack of the swamp mutated lizards, but the effects were very limited.
With no other choice, they could only use the dumbest method. They used the swamp cleaning machine to move forward bit by bit, trying to slowly deplete the number of swamp mutated lizards.
Seeing that Lu Yanlong had brought Fang Heng over, the head of Starfish Company, Mick, who was in charge of guarding the site and the exploration work, also came over with his subordinates to welcome him.
“Mr. Fang, nice to meet you.”
Mick was in his early fifties.
“We’ve been waiting for you to come.”
Mick gave Fang Heng a brief introduction to the situation and then looked troubled.
He was very curious about the special abilities of the young man who was so admired by the boss of Starfish Company.
The boss even gave up 80% of the profits.
One had to know that the boss was not a good person.
Fang Heng rubbed his chin after listening to Mick’s rough description. He then glanced at the large mechanical devices piled up in the open space.
“Mr. Fang, these are the mutant crystal conversion devices.”
Lu Yanlong saw Fang Heng’s gaze and immediately explained. As he spoke, he pointed to a few large instruments on the right and said, “The other ones are swamp purification devices. The swamp mutated lizards can use the terrain advantage to hide in the swamp. This kind of machine can clean up the swamp area.”
“Alright.”
Fang Heng nodded and looked at the equipment area in the distance.
In short, he wanted to test the strength of the swamp mutated lizards first.
“Everyone, step back a little and make way for an empty area. We’re ready to begin.”
Mick frowned.
“Mr. Fang, this small area that we’ve cleared in the past two days is an advantageous terrain. The swamp mutated lizards can smell human beings. Once we retreat, they might launch a surprise attack, and the machines might be affected…”
Lu Yanlong winked at Mick, signaling him to stop talking.
Everything was under Mr. Fang’s control.
Don’t come up with any ideas.
“Alright, I’m sorry. I spoke too much.”
Mick noticed Lu Yanlong’s expression and shut up obediently. He waved his hand and signaled for the team to retreat.
Of course, to be on the safe side, he didn’t let the team retreat too far away and firmly guarded in front of the mechanical device at the back.
Before Mick’s team could completely retreat, a swooshing sound came from the dense forest behind them.
Immediately after, a group of red creatures dashed out from the dense forest behind them!
Mick and his team members’ expressions changed when they saw this.
They were Lickers!
In the blink of an eye, a large group of Lickers emerged from the dense forest behind them. They quickly dashed forward and pounced on the swamp area!
The Lickers quickly entered the swamp, and their movements were hindered.
“Whoosh!”
A large number of swamp mutated lizards appeared from the bottom of the swamp, pouncing at the Lickers.
Under Fang Heng’s control, the Licker began to retreat again, trying to lure the swamp mutated lizards onto the shore.
The swamp mutated lizards did not realize the danger and followed him to the shore.
