Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game-Chapter 2547 Mark
Chapter 2547 Mark
The map indicated the locations of the group and their target, along with the connecting passages.
"It seems the council has pointed us to a path, suggesting we investigate that room," Tan Shuo remarked, pulling out a stone slab from his belongings. "You're right. The council sent a message saying there are special stone slabs inside that room, inscribed with unique characters. They want us to take a look, and ideally, bring those back."
"Alright, let's go check it out," he agreed.
As they spoke, a game prompt appeared in their vision.
[Hint: Player's current ring mission completed. Triggering next tier mission - Mausoleum Exploration.]
Mission Requirements: Follow the route given by the Undead Council, explore the mausoleum, and attempt to acquire items from within.
Fang Heng glanced at the prompt. He had considered immediately summoning a large number of zombie clones to thoroughly search the mausoleum. However, he thought better of it. He didn't yet understand the mausoleum well, and triggering alarms or traps would only complicate matters.
It seemed wiser to proceed cautiously and follow the mission's guidance for now.
"Let's go."
Fang Heng and his two companions followed the guidance provided by the undead council, navigating through the complex passages until they soon entered a small mausoleum.
The mausoleum was modest; aside from the murals on the walls, there was a small coffin positioned in the center. A gap was visible in the coffin's lid, from which a black aura seeped out continuously.
Fang Heng approached and tried to lift the coffin lid. Inside lay several pieces of decayed wood.
[Hint: The player discovered item-Rotting wood inscription.]
Item: Rotting wood inscription.
Type: Material (mission item).
Description: This rotting wood, slumbering in the death realm for billions of years, has absorbed the energy of death's aura, greatly enhancing necromantic talent. It is also an excellent material for necromancy.
Description: The rotting wood has been inscribed with special markings.
Description: The player lacks the necessary skills to decipher the inscription.
Fang Heng's gaze shifted away from the description of the rotting wood.
This was a valuable find—something that could directly enhance necromantic talent!
If he could get this outside, it would fetch a high price!
Unfortunately, it was a mission item.
Fang Heng flipped his wrist and quickly pulled out the three pieces of rotting wood inscriptions from the coffin.
"Shhh!!!"
As soon as he grasped them, waves of black death aura erupted from his hands. However, it was clear that the aura had no effect on Fang Heng in his Death God state.
[Hint: This item is a special mission item and cannot be stored in the backpack.]
Unable to store it in his backpack?
That posed a problem.
With no other choice, Fang Heng took out a small cart he had prepared and placed the wooden planks on it.
Done!
In the undead council, everyone watched as Fang Heng effortlessly opened the coffin and loaded the black wood pieces into the cart. Someone started clapping, and soon the entire room erupted in applause.
They had succeeded!
After so many attempts, they could finally begin taking items from the mausoleum of Empress Persephone!
It was a historic breakthrough!
As for the wooden pieces Fang Heng had found, their exact purpose remained unclear. The team would need to wait for Fang Heng to return before conducting further research.
But that didn't matter!
Once Fang Heng safely brought back the wooden planks, they could immediately start their investigation.
Unfortunately, the stone slab could only record text-based communication, so they couldn't share their current excitement with Fang Heng.
Georgi raised a hand to silence the crowd and said, "Everyone, this is just the beginning. Let's continue; we need to guide Fang Heng to the next search location."
Soon, within the mausoleum of Empress Persephone, a new route to another cavern appeared on the stone slab in Fang Heng's hands.
The group exchanged glances as the game prompt emerged.
[Hint: The player has acquired a mission item. Please keep the mission item intact and follow the guidance to search.]
Fang Heng glanced at the game prompt and thought to himself that it seemed the undead faction had already thoroughly explored the outer entrance of the mausoleum and marked all the valuable locations. Their group, acting as support, just needed to follow the marked routes to search for materials.
"Alright, let's keep going."
Li Shaoqiang felt optimistic, sensing that a substantial amount of undead faction points and reputation would soon be in their grasp.
This mission was good!
"It seems the danger level is low, but we can't let our guard down..."
"Yeah, we understand."
"Let's move on."
They all quickly made their way toward the next mission location.
.....
After a long day of exploring, Fang Heng and his companions had covered a significant portion of the mausoleum's outer area, filling their cart to capacity with items. However, there was still a long way to go before they could claim to have fully explored the area.
"Mr. Fang," Li Shaoqiang said, "the undead council has informed us that we've searched about a third of the upper level. For safety's sake, they want us to return and transport our findings back."
"Alright."
"Before we head back, though, we need to check one last central stone chamber to retrieve some important documents. They say it's related to the death realm established by Empress Persephone."
Fang Heng glanced down at the stone slab he was carrying, which displayed the exact location of the documents.
The game prompt then refreshed.
[Hint: The player's current mission has changed-Find documents related to the Empire of Empress Persephone.]
"Let's go."
Fang Heng had no doubts as he led the three of them onward toward the mission location.
At least they hadn't encountered any real dangers along the way.
However, with the mission refreshed, they might face some trouble during this next task.
Li Shaoqiang and Tan Shuo stayed alert, carefully following Fang Heng.
Meanwhile, the higher-ups of the undead council monitored Fang Heng's group through a mirror, their anxiety palpable.
The documents they were about to search for were stored in an area that had previously been a gathering place for guards. Exploring that area would require significant effort, and they assessed that Fang Heng and his companions were likely to encounter danger there. They repeatedly reminded him through the stone slab to proceed with caution.
Finally, they watched as Fang Heng and his companions slowly opened the large door to the stone chamber and safely stepped inside.
Great!
They had succeeded!
As Fang Heng's group entered the central region, the guards within the mausoleum remained inactive, causing a hushed excitement to ripple through the council hall.
"Quiet," Georgi called out, raising his hand for silence. He then turned to an assistant and instructed, "Tell Fang Heng that the ancient books in the mausoleum are extremely important, and he must be careful."
