1840 A Trial
“The Mundt Gang has been researching for so long but they still haven’t come up with a feasible plan. I don’t think they’ll find anything unexpected with their eyes…”
“Who is that Fang Heng? Do you know him? I just heard him talking nonsense over there. Be careful not to be deceived.”
Aktu did not say a word at first, but when he heard that someone was attacking Fang Heng, he immediately glared back. His eyes were wide with anger as he argued, “He’s my friend! I believe in him!”
“Everyone, please calm down.”
Meng Ruhui stepped forward to help. He looked at Aktu and nodded, “Go ahead. We need to try something.”
Aktu nodded at Meng Ruhui and immediately did a headcount. He selected a dozen people to go back to Fang Heng for reinforcement.
“Meng Ruhui, why are you indulging your younger brother like this?”
“No worries.”
Meng Ruhui shook his head and explained to the crowd, “Even if a single magic array fails, it won’t affect the overall situation. Judging from the current situation, the people from the Holy Court will arrive soon. The next wave of attack from the Federation will be in conjunction with the Holy Court. We don’t have enough hard power. We have to win with a small advantage to have a chance of survival.”
Jite gave a soft humph. He felt that Meng Ruhui was covering up for him.
However, since they had already said so, everyone stopped persuading him.
On the other side, Fang Heng was still studying the magic array ritual when Aktu brought another group of players to the cave.
“Fang Heng, Big Brother has agreed to our research. Oh right, I just took some power source bodies and magic array blueprints from the warehouse. Come and see if they’re useful.”
“Blueprint? That’s great!”
Fang Heng was studying it when he heard that there was a blueprint. He immediately raised his head.
The process of transferring the magic array to the ritual had been specially handled.
He had just studied it for a while, and his progress was limited.
Fang Heng took the blueprint and studied it carefully.
The twenty or so members of the Mundt Gang who had come with Aktu were quietly waiting at the back.
After a while, Fang Heng put down the blueprint and stared at the ritual for a moment.
Aktu asked softly, “Fang Heng, how is it? Do you have any ideas?”
“Yes, a little. Everyone, let’s begin. Let’s try the ritual first. I need to perform some fixed tests.”
“Understood!”
…
While Fang Heng was activating the ritual and carrying out the spiritual power simulation tests, the Federation was also working out an action plan to deal with the Mundt Gang.
After the failure of the first wave of attacks, the Federation immediately withdrew from the base of the Mundt Gang and set up countermeasures around the base.
The alchemy magic array!
The Federation’s military quickly formulated five plans and chose the most suitable one.
They would use the purifying magic array.
Completely purify the black fog!
Many academics had additional purification abilities.
For example, natural science and elemental science.
Another example was the sacred study.
According to the Federation’s experience in dealing with the black fog, the first two academic methods had limited effects on the black fog.
There was only sacred study.
The purification effect was extremely good!
Unfortunately, sacred study was firmly bound to the Holy Court.
No players in the military were proficient in sacred study.
Hence, they could only settle for the second-best option and temporarily set up elemental science and natural science magic array in the outside world.
The two formations could purify a part of the black fog that was leaking out of the camp of the Mundt Gang and ensure the safety of the temporary camp of the Federation.
Soon, the reinforcements sent by the Holy Court arrived.
The Holy Court worked closely with the Central Federation.
The Holy Court had also participated in the previous battles against the City of Darkness.
When the military began to deal with the City of Darkness, the Holy Court had already received the news that Archbishop Robert had personally brought a team of believers as reinforcements.
Not long ago, the Holy Court arrived with their men.
Archbishop Robert, the leader of the Holy Court, observed the black fog that shrouded the holy land of the Mundt Gang. He paused for a moment, and his eyes showed a serious look.
Kleinman asked, “Archbishop, did you find anything?”
“Yes, I’m not worried about the demi-humans now, but the game rift.”
Robert looked at the entrance of the Mundt Gang’s encampment. His eyes were filled with worry. He continued, We have been here a few times before. The black fog was never as thick as it is now. I did not expect it to be this grave before we came.”
Kleinman said, “I’m afraid these changes are related to the Mundt Gang.”
The head of the Federation’s Inspection Bureau asked, “Will it be related to the demi-humans? Gu Qingzhu came here as soon as she escaped from school. Could it be that she deliberately led us here?”
Kleinman thought for a moment and shook his head. He said, “It doesn’t seem like it. But we still have to be prepared. We haven’t found Gu Qingzhu’s whereabouts. It’s very likely that she’s also in the camp of the Mundt Gang.”
As he spoke, a soldier came forward to report, “Sir, we’ve just completed a thorough search of the inner area of the City of Darkness. We did not find any traces of Fang Heng and Gu Qingzhu. The spiritual tracking marks on the periphery are still undetectable. Based on this, we can judge that the two of them should be staying in the area of the City of Darkness.”
Kleinman said, “This way, we can confirm that Gu Qingzhu and Fang Heng are undoubtedly in the encampment of the Mundt Gang.”
“These two groups are gathered together. No wonder it’s so troublesome.” The military commander looked at Archbishop Robert of the Holy Court and asked, “Archbishop Robert, the Holy Court has always been very good at dealing with these sinister auras. Is there any way to deal with the current situation?”
“Yes, everyone has found the best solution. I’ve already learned about the changes in the black fog on the way here. I’ve specially ordered someone to bring a special alchemy magic array tablet. With this, we can fulfill the evolution of the entire base of the Mundt Gang in one fell swoop and disperse the black fog.”
“That’s great. Leave the black fog to the Archbishop. We’ll cooperate fully.”
Everyone discussed for a moment, and soon, the fight plan was completed.
The Holy Court cooperated with the Federation’s military to set up two alchemical spells based on the sacred study.
One was a fixed large-scale magic array. The other was a mobile medium-sized magic array.
The former was set up outside the base of the Mundt Gang.
The large-scale magic array could purify the black fog that overflowed from the Mundt Gang’s encampment.
After the medium-sized magic array was constructed, it would be engraved on a movable alchemy tablet.
The various teams of the Federation army, with the cooperation of the Holy Court, brought the stone tablets into the passage.
With the help of the alchemy tablet’s dispel power, the players will be immune to the effects of the black fog on stamina depletion in the area around the alchemy tablet.
Next, they only needed seven medium-sized alchemy tablets to be arranged and assembled according to the pre-set points of the archbishop of the Holy Court. They would then be connected to the large-scale magic array set up outside to form an external magic array that could activate all the dispelling effects to the maximum!
“When the magic array is completely installed, at least 90% of the black fog in the entire base of the Mundt Gang will be dispersed.
“Good! Act accordingly!”
