Chapter 214 Temporary Command Authority
The entire command centre fell into silence once again.
“Fang Heng.”Qin Shaofeng walked to Fang Heng’s side. “You have a way to help us, don’t
you?”
Fang Heng nodded, his tone filled with confidence.
“Yes, but I need you to listen to my commands for the time being.”
The next moment, Fang Heng and Deng Xin received a similar game hint.
(Hint: The research institute staff is evaluating your (Fang Heng) proposal. They are evaluating the player’s favorability rating, reputation, charm, identity, mission evaluation and so on…]
(Hint: Evaluation completed. The research institute staff and the Crimson Blood Mercenary Group trust You (Fang Heng).] (Hint: You (Fang Heng) have obtained the temporary command authority of the team.]
Deng Xin looked at Fang Heng in surprise.
What kind of operation was this?
Fang Heng could obtain the command authority of the entire team? This kind of game method had completely exceeded Deng Xin’s understanding of this game.
In the past, the NPCs were the main players in the game, and the players would just be in the background…
There was this kind of gameplay in this game…
“It’s done!”
Seeing the game hint, Fang Heng was a little excited.
The first step of the plan was also the most difficult.
But it was achieved!
“Thank you for your trust.”
Fang Heng nodded to everyone. “Time is tight, so let’s cut the crap. Whoever has learned the construction skill, the higher the level, the better.”
A white and thin young man walked out of the crowd first.
“I’m Yang Tian, Mr Bragg’s disciple. I’ve learned construction from him for a while.” The other staff members of the secret research institute also stood out.
“I know how to do it too.”
“I’ve learned construction for a while, so I can help.”
Seeing four or five people standing out from the crowd, Fang Heng was slightly relieved.
Fortunately, there were NPC survivors who could build the teleportation passage.
To avoid such trouble in the future, he would find an opportunity to learn construction skills himself when he was free.
“Okay!”
Fang Heng looked at Qin Shaofeng.
“I need you to lead the mercenary group and do everything you can to stall for time.” “Give up on the repair of the emergency exits in the quarantine one. Give up on guarding the entrances and exits. Conserve your strength. Everyone, retreat.”
“We need to stop the zombie horde from controlling the power supply and the central control of the shelter. We need to send out another team and think of a way to lure the zombies out.”
“Try your best to hold on for one hour! In one hour, I’ll find someone to come and rescue you.”
“Okay!”
The situation was urgent. Since Qin Shaofeng had chosen to trust Fang Heng, he didn’t hesitate anymore. He nodded solemnly and commanded the remaining Crimson Blood Mercenary Group that could fight. “Let’s go! Follow me to Area F!”
Fang Heng looked at Deng Xin again.
“Follow them. If you encounter a situation, use the survival radio to contact us.”
Deng Xin was stunned for a moment. Then, she saw Fang Heng’s friend request from the survival radio.
“Okay! I got it!”
For some reason, Fang Heng gave Deng Xin a strange feeling
It seemed that he had everything under his control.
And he could turn the tables!
“I’ll go now!”
With that, Deng Xin hurriedly left the main control room with Qin Shaofeng’s team. Yang Tian and the others followed behind Fang Heng
“Colonel Fang Heng, what should we do next?”
Fang Heng’s gaze quickly swept across the hall of the main control room.
“It’s almost enough…”
Fang Heng muttered to himself in a low voice and quickly took out a blueprint from his backpack.
“Take a look at this.”
This is…
A construction blueprint?
Yang Tian and the others were stunned for a moment. Then, they all came closer and carefully studied the blueprint provided by Fang Heng. “Hiss… space tearing device?!”
Yang Tian raised his head and looked at Fang Heng with a surprised expression.
He had such a thing?
Space tearing device was the top-secret of their Meteorite Company. “Let’s see if the building materials are sufficient. What else is missing?”
One of the architects quickly studied it and raised his head to answer.
“Materials are available, but the building materials are temporarily stored in the storage room in the third basement. If we go there now to retrieve them…”
“There’s more.” Yang Tian had come into contact with the space tearing device before. He looked at Fang Heng and said, “Colonel Fang Heng, it’s too late to build the space tearing device now, right? It will take a long time to locate the coordinates of the passage…”
As he spoke, Yang Tian slowly stopped. He also realized something. “Yes, the main space tearing device in my shelter has been modified. It can quickly locate the passage.”
Fang Heng looked at everyone again.
“Any other questions?” Yang Tian and the other three architects exchanged glances.
They shook their heads at the same time.
“Alright, let’s move out. Yang Tian, follow me. The rest of you stay here and wait for orders. Clear out a construction area in advance.”
“Lucia, you stay here and guard.”
“Alright, leave this to me.”
Fang Heng drank another can of coffee as he spoke. He began to throw the materials in his backpack out one by one.
Even though he had not slept for an entire night, his mind was abnormally excited.
Everything was gradually on the right track.
The number and intensity of the mutated zombies in the quarantine zone were too high! It was not realistic to rely on the 12 Lickers and the remaining members of the Crimson Blood Mercenary Group to defend this place!
Moreover, most of the engineers in the entire research institute were already dead or injured. The repair progress would be too slow.
It was also courting death to repair the damaged entrances and exits of the quarantine zone.
It was already the best outcome to be able to escape with everyone.
The only way to change all of this was to build a teleportation passage!
Once the teleportation passage was completed, a large number of zombies in the shelter could enter the research base through the passage to provide reinforcements.
Not only the zombie team but also the Dark Knights!
Coincidentally, David was in their shelter with two teams of Dark Knights.
Coincidentally, David came with an engineering team!
It was a godsend!
With the engineering team and the Dark Knights, it was possible to repair the passage openings.
First, he used the zombie team to control the situation. Then, with his relationship with David, he asked the Dark Knights to help repair the damaged safety valve!
Once the plan succeeded…
Not only could he complete the mission, but he could also leave a back door here and slowly farm the Tier 3 mutated zombies!
Yang Tian did not know what Fang Heng was thinking. He hurriedly led Fang Heng and the remaining eight Lickers to the third basement. “Colonel Fang Heng, it’s over there!”
Coming to the storage room in the third basement, Yang Tian opened the emergency exit and walked in. He began to search for materials in the storage room.
Fang Heng had a big backpack skill, and his physique attribute also added weight-bearing attributes.
Previously, he had emptied his backpack in the command centre to move the materials now.
As he was moving the materials, Fang Heng scanned a few messages on his retina. (Hint: Your zombie clone (Licker modified body) is currently exposed to a high concentration virus body and its HP will continue to decrease (as time goes by, the rate of HP reduction will gradually increase).]
(Hint: Mutation is probable after being exposed to a highly concentrated virus body for a long period. You can spend 5000 survival points to accelerate the mutation. Positive mutation success rate: 0.0001%. If the mutation fails, the zombie clone will die (it can still be resurrected).]
