“If you want my opinion, I think you should give up.”
Give up?
Fang Heng was stunned for a moment.
Mo Jiawei shouted directly, “No! Fourth Uncle! How can we give up just like that! We’ve spent so much effort…”
“Listen to me first.”
Mo Yunxiao waved his hand and said seriously, “We all know that the main storyline mission of Zombie Apocalypse has a lot to do with the Dark Knights.”
“You’ve been in District 7 for too short a time. The Federation has already been ahead of you by too much. Under such circumstances, you can imagine how difficult it is to catch up.”
“If I were Kou Huai, I would use the resources of the Dark Knights to pressure you. He doesn’t even need to do it himself to make it difficult for you to move within the Dark Knights. He would completely cut off your follow-up main storyline mission in District 7.”
Fang Heng’s heart skipped a beat.
This was also what he had been worried about previously.
The Federation was able to affect the Dark Knights to a large extent. Even if he managed to complete the mission chain to assassinate Cook Barn and earn some contribution points, what about the following main storyline mission?
It was still difficult for him to interfere.
Mo Jiawei didn’t think so far ahead at the start. After hearing Mo Yunxiao’s words, his heart instantly turned cold as he thought to himself, “Can you still play like this?”
This is a dead end!
Are the people of the Federation all so sly?
Xiao Ruoruo also looked worriedly at Fang Heng.
Fang Heng lowered his head and pondered.
The fact that the Federation was able to control the Dark Knights at this juncture was truly too unbearable.
However… was there no other way?
Not really.
Fang Heng narrowed his eyes indiscernibly as he raised his head and said, “Mr Mo, I think I still have a chance.”
“Huh?”
Mo Yunxiao nodded with a smile. “Feel free to say it.”
“Kou Huai wants to play, so let’s play seriously.”
Fang Heng did not have any intention of joking. He thought for a moment and said seriously, “I can choose to slow down the progress of the main storyline mission and help the Scavenger Army resist the Dark Knights. Then, with the strength of the Scavenger Army, I can slowly find an opportunity to get rid of those Federation players who have higher contribution points than me in the Dark Knights.”
Everyone was stunned.
“Interesting idea, but it’s very difficult to do this. Moreover, as far as I know, there’s no precedent for this. Other than the Dark Knights, there’s no other way to complete the main storyline mission.”
“I will take my time then. I don’t mind. I believe there’s always another way to complete the main storyline. I can take my time to find it.”
Fang Heng spread his hands.
“If the path of the Dark Knights doesn’t work, why don’t we try to take the path of Cook Barn?”
Mo Jiawei was stunned and asked, “Cook Barn? What does that mean?”
Seeing the puzzled expressions on everyone’s faces, Fang Heng explained, “Cook Barn is also related to the first-generation meteorite in the main storyline. Maybe it can trigger the main storyline mission. There hasn’t been such a precedent before, but it doesn’t mean that it doesn’t exist, right?”
Fang Heng had a vague feeling that the founder of the Scavenger Army, Cook Barn, should know something. There was a probability that he could dig out clues related to the main storyline mission from him.
In his previous world, weren’t the games divided into ‘bad end’ and ‘good end’?
Helping Cook Barn destroy the entire world to complete ‘bad end’ might also be considered to have completed the main storyline…
Just because there was no precedent didn’t mean that it didn’t exist.
There were always more solutions than difficulties.
Even if he failed, he would be able to exhaust the strength of the Federation and vent his anger. At the same time, he would be able to obtain some clues related to the main storyline from Cook Barn.
If it didn’t work out, he might as well just destroy the Dark Knights!
He would just flip the table and stop playing! At that time, no one would be able to take the main storyline mission!
“Amazing! ! There’s such a move? Why didn’t I think of it?”
After carefully pondering over Fang Heng’s words, Mo Jiawei clapped his hands and was instantly pleasantly surprised.
He thought to himself that God was indeed a god. There were so many such fancy and flashy operations.
Mo Yunxiao smiled and didn’t say anything. He felt that it might be a method.
However, this method was too idealistic.
Ordinary players couldn’t join the Scavenger Army under the Federation’s strong pressure, let alone trigger the Scavenger Army’s mission line.
Moreover, it was easier said than done to do this. It was equivalent to a villain’s mission line courting death, and the vast majority of survival players and the Federation stood on a different side.
Even the anti-federal organization was rarely this crazy.
Thinking about it carefully, Mo Yunxiao felt that it was very interesting.
With an opponent like Fang Heng, the Federation would feel very distressed.
He was looking forward to what Fang Heng would become once he entered the high-level game.
Fang Heng asked, “Mr Mo, what do you think of my plan?”
“It’s a very interesting idea. I think that since you’ve already decided on your idea, you can be at ease and do it without any worries. I’ll be staying here for some time. The people of the Federation won’t personally come and ask for you.”
Mo Yunxiao raised his teacup. “I wish you success.”
“Thank you, Mr Mo!”
…
2 am in the morning.
At the Municipal Inspection Bureau.
The chief of the Federation’s Inspection Bureau, Cao Buchun, hurriedly walked outside the office. He knocked on the door and pushed it open to enter.
“Director Yu.”
“Hmm, you’re still here to personally report on your work so late at night? How’s the situation with Meng Wu?”
Yu Feiyu closed the file in his hand.
He was the one who had ordered Fang Heng to come back for the investigation.
He knew that Meng Wu’s operation would most likely fail tonight.
North River Heavy Industry had been very calm in recent years, but the higher-ups of the Federation were very clear that North River Heavy Industry was not of good character either.
This time, Meng Wu was asked to go over just to take a look at the situation and provide a decent explanation to District 7.
The Inspection Bureau had a lot of things to do. There was no need to waste manpower and resources for a low-level game world.
However, this time, Cao Buchun’s face was gloomy.
“Director Yu, there’s a problem. It was just confirmed ten minutes ago that Meng Wu is dead.”
“What?”
Yu Feiyu’s pupils constricted.
In a short moment, several thoughts flashed through his mind.
“Who did it? Is it North River Heavy Industry?”
“I’m not sure. After Leader Meng left North River Heavy Industry, he reported to me about the general work situation. It was too late at that time, so I told him to go back and rest first. Tomorrow, I’ll get someone to fill in a detailed mission record for him.”
Cao Buchun recalled the situation that night. “About ten minutes ago, the police station received a report that a corpse was found by the roadside.”
“The inspection team has already inspected the scene at the first possible moment. The preliminary conclusion is that it doesn’t seem like the Mo Family of North River Heavy Industry. From the traces left behind at the scene, it’s likely that it was done by a demi-human.”
Yu Feiyu frowned when he heard that.
“Demi-human…”
“The preliminary autopsy found that there were no external injuries on the surface of the body. The organs exploded and died. The scene of death contained a strong sense of provocation and venting anger…”
“Provocation?” Yu Feiyu stood up and picked up his coat. “Come with me to the scene. We’ll talk as we walk.”
