At this time, Ni Shengtao looked at Fang Heng and said, “About three years ago, Mr. Cook told me that he wanted the new army commander to go to his secret storage room if he died by accident. He had something left there for you.”
“Something left for me?”
Fang Heng was surprised.
Then, a row of game hints appeared in front of his eyes.
“Hint: Dear player, you have triggered a mission, Scavenger Army’s crisis.”
“Name of Mission: Scavenger Army’s crisis.
Difficulty Level of Mission: SS.
Mission Description: The former commander of Scavenger Army, Cook Barn, suddenly died. You have taken over the position of the commander of Scavenger Army. However, you are still facing an unprecedented crisis.
Mission Requirements 1: Please finish the research and development of the divine potion within 3 days. If you fail this mission, the morale points of Scavenger Army will continuously drop significantly.
Mission Requirements 2: Please follow Ni Shengtao into the secret storage room within 1 day to search for the item left behind by Cook Barn. If it’s not done, you will fail this mission.
Mission Requirements 3: Please keep the morale points of Scavenger Army constantly above 20 (the highest will be 200). Once it goes below 40, there will be a defection of your team members. If it’s below 20 for more than an hour, the default result will be mission failure (current morale points: 120).
Mission Reward: You will become the official leader of Scavenger Army and obtain the authority to command all the regions of Scavenger Army.
Penalty for Failure: Scavenger Army will be disbanded. All your Scavenger Army contribution points will be cleared, and your survival points will also be deducted.
Fang Heng carefully checked the mission requirements.
In short, the mission’s most troublesome part was finding a way to make the divine potion.
Perhaps there were some clues about making the potion in the items left behind by Cook Barn?
Ni Shengtao and Osborne both looked at Fang Heng.
Now, Fang Heng had become their hope of survival.
Fang Heng took a deep breath and said, “I see. Take me there now. I’ll find out what Commander Cook has left for me.”
…
Tenth floor underground.
Outside the secret storage room of the research institute.
Ni Shengtao and Osborne’s expressions were highly solemn. They stood behind Fang Heng, their eyes flashing with deep fear.
Fang Heng was puzzled by their strange reaction.
“What’s wrong?”
“Don’t you feel it, Commander Fang Heng?”
Fang Heng didn’t feel anything. He asked with confusion, “Feel what? What do you mean?”
“It’s…” Ni Shengtao glanced at Osborne and said, “It’s a sort of fear that comes from the heart.”
Fang Heng looked at Osborne. “Do you have this feeling too?”
Osborne nodded solemnly.
“Yes, Commander.”
Fang Heng asked, “What’s in the room?”
“There should be a box. The former commander, Mr. Cook, said he hoped the new commander could get the stuff in the box after taking over the army. It is something significant to the entire Scavenger Army.”
“Okay, I see. Now open the door.”
Ni Shengtao carefully stepped forward and opened the door of the secret storage room with the backup magnetic card.
Fang Heng pushed the door open.
With the primary night vision ability of Vampire Bloodline, Fang Heng observed that the storage room was very empty inside.
There was only a wooden table in the middle of the room.
And there seemed to be a box on the table, but he couldn’t see it clearly.
“Aren’t you coming in?”
“Mr. Cook told us that only you can enter the room.”
“Cook is dead, and his orders are invalid now. Come with me.”
As Fang Heng spoke, he stepped into the room.
“Okay.”
Ni Shengtao and Osborne looked at each other.
They had an instinctive fear of this door.
Suppressing the fear in their hearts, the two of them slowly stepped into the room.
They could not get too close because their fear was too intense. So, Ni Shengtao and Osborne just stood at the room’s entrance.
The six tyrant forms followed Fang Heng into the room and stood behind him.
A humming sound came.
The automatic induction door closed again, and the lights in the room lit up.
Fang Heng slowly walked to the wooden table in the middle of the room.
There was a wooden box on it.
“This is it?”
Fang Heng reached out his hand and touched the wooden box.
“Hint: You have found an unknown wooden box.”
“Item: An unknown wooden box.
Description: It’s an unknown wooden box which looks ordinary.
Description (triggered by the perception attribute of over 30 points): You feel that there might be something dangerous in this wooden box.
Description (triggered by the skill of basic occult Level 7): You feel that there is a strong movement of life energy in the wooden box.
Something dangerous?
Strong life energy?
Fang Heng was on high alert.
Something was wrong!
In the past, his occult skill described even the first-generation meteorites as just an ordinary natural and weak energy.
But there was a powerful energy in this wooden box?
Swoosh!
Fang Heng retracted his hand.
Then, the box shook slightly in front of Fang Heng.
Danger!
Fang Heng suddenly had a bad feeling.
His danger perception skill had been activated.
Fang Heng had not activated this skill for a long time. He quickly reacted and retreated fast.
“Be careful!”
Ni Shengtao also shouted.
In the next moment, the box exploded in front of Fang Heng.
“Buzz…”
The moment the box exploded, Fang Heng heard a buzzing sound in his mind, and his head hurt!
“Hint: You have suffered an unknown spiritual attack.”
Ni Shengtao and Osborne were in a worse state. They had completely lost the ability to control their bodies, freezing on the spot simultaneously.
“Buzz, buzz…”
As the box broke open, dozens of tiny dark purple bugs sprang out from the box and rushed to Fang Heng.
However, their abilities were limited. They flew in midair for less than half a meter before landing on the ground.
This was a spiritual attack!
“What should I do?!”
Fang Heng’s head hurt badly. He could not concentrate on controlling the tyrant forms at all.
He gritted his teeth, and his body was almost out of control. His knees went weak, and he half kneeled on the ground.
Fang Heng watched helplessly as the tiny purple bugs slowly spread toward him!
Soon, Fang Heng flipped his wrist.
Vampiric Spirit Cane!
Using his last bit of strength, Fang Heng smashed his Vampiric Spirit Cane onto the ground.
Meanwhile, he cast the silence spell.
Faint red ripples spread out rapidly from Vampiric Spirit Cane.
It was silence skill, the special skill attached to Vampiric Spirit Cane.
By consuming the owner’s mental strength, it could make all creatures within range unable to use their skills, speak, or use their backpack. This status required continuous spellcasting posture and could last up to 5 seconds.
The hissing sound in Fang Heng’s mind disappeared as soon as the silence skill was activated.
He returned to the clear-headed state.
The purple bugs crawling toward him on the ground were also in the range of the silence skill.
They paused for a moment.
The six tyrant forms immediately received Fang Heng’s order and rushed forward, raising their fists to smash at the bugs on the ground.
“Be quick! We have only five seconds! Finish them off!”
Fang Heng shouted.
Ni Shengtao and Osborne had also recovered and regained control of their bodies.
Hearing that, the two of them charged forward with all their might. They took out their shotguns from their backs and aimed at the purple bugs on the ground, pulling the trigger.
“Boom, boom!”
At close range, the shotgun’s power was unleashed to the maximum.
The twisted and struggling bugs on the ground were blasted into pieces.
