Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game-Chapter 2578 Devour
Chapter 2578 Devour
Thinking quickly, Fang Heng shifted his gaze to the central crystal pillar of the Great Hall.
Due to the external invasion triggering the alarm, the central pillar now glowed a deep purple.
Surrounding the central pillar were...
Fang Heng rapidly scanned the coffins, counting their numbers.
Yes!
It matched the translation records!
There were a total of twelve coffins!
Each coffin contained a fragment of Empress Persephone's shattered soul!
He just needed to choose one!
Absorb it!
At that moment, the higher-ups of the undead council, a group of instructors, focused their attention on Fang Heng's actions as they watched through the mirror.
Fang Heng!
What was he trying to do?
Previously, in the Great Hall of the death knights, that had been his best opportunity to leave!
However, Fang Heng chose not to escape but instead returned to Empress Persephone's mausoleum!
Li Shaoqiang and Tan Shuo exchanged glances, both reading the tension and excitement on each other's faces, their hearts racing wildly.
They guessed correctly!
Fang Heng returned to the Empress's mausoleum with one purpose in mind! He wanted to see if he could consume the Empress's will!
Everyone watched as Fang Heng quickly entered the central area of the Empress's mausoleum, arriving in front of one of the twelve coffins.
What was he about to do?
Fang Heng pressed his hand against the coffin and looked up at the ice crystal pillar in the center of the Great Hall.
He remembered the High Priestess had mentioned that to complete the inheritance of the will, one needed to touch the ice crystal pillar and then accept the guidance.
However, at this moment, he wasn't interested in any inheritance of will.
So...
Fang Heng took a deep breath.
"Here it comes!"
With a sudden burst of strength, he lifted the coffin lid!
"Whoosh!!!"
A black mist poured out from the gap of the opened coffin lid!
The black fog quickly condensed in the air, forming a round ball.
The sphere emitted an intensely powerful aura of death!
Fang Heng cautiously stepped back half a pace, focusing on the sphere above him.
It seemed this was the so-called fragment of inheritance left by Empress Persephone.
Next, he would absorb it!
"Whoosh!!!"
Just as Fang Heng contemplated how to proceed, the sphere suddenly erupted, shooting off into the distance.
Not good!
It was escaping!
Fang Heng lightly tapped his toes and immediately pursued the black fog sphere.
Whoosh!!!
The black fog sphere slammed into the wall, causing a faint blue halo to appear on the surface, and then it was bounced back.
Hmm?
Fang Heng realized something.
The entire Great Hall seemed to have a barrier designed to prevent the Empress's will from escaping; the black fog sphere couldn't penetrate the walls!
"I've got it!"
Taking advantage of the moment the black fog was rebounded, Fang Heng quickly reached out and touched the fog.
In the next instant, the black fog erupted violently, breaking free from Fang Heng's grasp.
Not good.
The black fog was still intangible; with his current abilities, he couldn't hold onto it!
He also couldn't allow the black fog to invade his sea of consciousness.
What to do?
Fang Heng felt anxious, his eyes scanning the Great Hall.
The black fog didn't show strong aggression, but he couldn't affect it in any way.
Time was running out; outside, Abe Akaya was already starting to struggle.
He had to try that!
The crystal pillar!
With no other option, Fang Heng tapped his toes again and quickly dashed toward the central pillar.
Pa!
Reaching the purple crystal pillar, Fang Heng slammed his hand against the ice crystal structure.
Almost simultaneously, he felt his mental strength being drawn from his sea of consciousness by the pillar!
"Whoosh!!!"
The entire central stone pillar immediately radiated a soft blue light!
The black soul will, which had been darting around the Great Hall, sensed something and gradually began to calm down, floating toward the ice crystal pillar.
Fang Heng fixed his gaze on the soul will slowly drifting toward him.
It worked!
Whoosh!
The soul merged into the purple ice crystal pillar and, guided by it, was quickly absorbed into Fang Heng's body!
It's here!
He succeeded!
Fang Heng's heart raced with excitement!
A powerful force of will surged into his body through his palm.
Not good!
Fang Heng's pupils constricted.
Compared to the will of the death knight before, this power was hundreds of times stronger!
They weren't even on the same level!
He had underestimated it!
Once the will entered his body, it immediately gathered in his sea of consciousness!
The ice crystals already present in his sea of consciousness burst forth with ice-blue energy waves!
The incomplete will of the Empress quickly intertwined with the ice crystal in his consciousness!

As Fang Heng watched the game notifications pop up, he felt his sea of consciousness being nourished, a deep sense of satisfaction bubbling up within him.
Was there an unexpected gain?!
The remaining will of Empress Persephone contained immense power. This power, originating from the ice crystal, was rapidly absorbed under its influence.
However, mere seconds of satisfaction turned into urgency as the will surged into Fang Heng's sea of consciousness, attempting to devour and merge with his own will.
Here it came!
Fang Heng's heart raced. The crisis erupted just as he had feared.
His will was no match for that of Empress Persephone.
Now, he could only rely on the demonic seed!
Fang Heng fervently prayed in his mind.
He had to withstand it!
In his sea of consciousness, the remnants of Empress Persephone's will pursued Fang Heng's will with lethal intent.
He switched to the demonic seed form!
Fang Heng's will immediately merged with the will of the demonic seed lurking in the corner of his consciousness.
In an instant, the will of the demonic seed exploded forth!
The two wills clashed violently in the sea of consciousness!
Unlike before, when the death knight's will was quickly devoured and extinguished, this time there was a sense of balance between them.
At least, the outcome wouldn't be decided quickly.
The entire sea of consciousness became a battlefield for these two powerful wills!
Fang Heng soon realized something.
Empress Persephone's will was incomplete and heavily restricted. Conversely, his will was far weaker than that of the demonic seed, so after merging, he couldn't fully utilize the seed's power, thus weakening himself significantly.
With both sides weakened, and benefiting from the home-field advantage, he gradually gained the upper hand!
Fang Heng's eyes turned red.
The trouble was that as he used his will to struggle against the invading will of the demonic seed, both his and the seed's wills sustained damage, slowly wearing down.
He had to crush it!
Bang!!!
After entangling with the remnants of Empress Persephone's will for over ten minutes, Fang Heng's will gained significant advantage. Drawing on the strength of the demonic seed, he finally overwhelmed and shattered the remnants of Empress Persephone's will completely!
