Chapter 341 - Divine Potion
Chapter 341: Divine Potion
The Scavenger Army appeared very suddenly.
Under the guidance of the organization’s leader, the Scavenger Army began to occupy the dilapidated cities and towns, attacking the player’s shelter and other NPC camps for no reason.
They burned, killed, looted and focused on destruction. They believed in the concept of being above powerlessness.
In addition, the Scavenger Army also had a special ability. Most of their bodies had undergone a special mutation and had evolved. Most of them had powerful close combat abilities.
There were also rumours that they were immune to the threat of the zombie virus.
The Scavenger Army even recruited players.
It was also worth noting that for some reason, the Federation had issued a ban, banning all players from joining the Scavenger Army. If they were found out, they would be punished by law.
This was especially strange. The bill had once caused a heated discussion around the world.
Killing people in the game was not against the law. On the contrary, joining a game organization would be against the law.
Fang Heng had previously heard that there were players who had secretly joined the Scavenger Army. After that, they were wanted by the Federation.
“In the parallel world that I’m in, the Scavenger Army has never appeared. Why?”
The corner of Ai Lei’s mouth twitched. He whispered, “Perhaps they will never appear.”
Fang Heng frowned. “What do you mean?”
“Nothing. Our Dark Knights have always wanted to send someone to scout the Scavenger Army. What do you think? Are you interested?”
“Why me?”
“They have the internal information of our Dark Knights. Our people can’t get in, so we have to hire new people.”
“And that group of people’s recruitment criteria is very barbaric. I need some ruthless people who can kill without blinking an eye.” Ai Lei looked at Fang Heng with a satisfied expression. “Well, just like you.”
“Hehe.” Fang Heng chuckled. “Then you’ve found the right person. What’s the goal of the mission?”
“I want you to sneak into the Scavenger Army and help me get something called the divine potion from them. Give it to me, and in exchange, I’ll tell you everything about the first-generation meteorite.”
“You have to think carefully. This mission is very difficult. If you are not careful, you will lose your life. The whereabouts of the two people I sent previously are unknown. The situation is not good.”
[Hint: You have obtained a special mission-divine potion.]
Mission name: Divine potion.
Mission description: You have learned from Ai Lei that the Scavenger Army is recruiting new members recently. Please try to join the Scavenger Army, obtain the divine potion and bring it back to Ai Lei.
Mission reward: First-generation meteorite related information, survival points.
Fang Heng quickly skimmed through the mission hint.
“Deal.”
“Cool! Fang Heng, I’m starting to like you. The Scavenger Army is now located 20 kilometres away from here in Edge Creek Town. I wish you good luck!”
“I won’t take long. I’ll be back soon.”
Fang Heng felt that this mission was not difficult.
Join the Scavenger Army, get the divine potion and get the first-generation meteorite.
If he was fast, he could complete the mission line and return to District 8 within 36 hours.
Leaving the apocalypse merchant camp, Fang Heng directly drove the white pickup truck to the town occupied by the Scavenger Army.
.....
At night, a pickup truck drove into Edge Creek Town.
As soon as they entered the town, several searchlights shone on the truck.
A few survivors of the Scavenger Army surrounded the truck with weapons in their hands and blocked the front of the truck.
They all looked fierce.
“D*mn it! Come out now!”
A young man who looked like a gangster, who reeked of alcohol, walked to the side of the truck with a bottle in his hand and slapped the window hard.
Fang Heng opened the car door and walked out.
“Don’t dawdle!”
A fierce look flashed across the hooligan’s eyes. He lifted the bottle and wanted to hit Fang Heng.
“Hu!”
However, the next second, he realized that his wrist was tightly grabbed by Fang Heng.
Then, an unprecedented pain came from his lower abdomen!
“Bang!”
The hooligan was sent flying by Fang Heng’s kick. He clutched his lower abdomen and struggled to stand up. He trembled and could not speak.
Fang Heng was slightly surprised.
The strength of this kick was extremely strong. With just one kick, that hooligan could stand up so quickly?
“Kid, where did you come from?”
The one who spoke was a bald man. There was a dragon tattoo on the left side of his head. His exposed skin revealed a hint of green.
“I’m Fang Heng. I heard that your Scavenger Army needs manpower.” Fang Heng stood where he was and looked around at the players. “I’ll be straightforward. I admire your philosophy. I want to join.”
“You want to join?”
Bald Roche turned to look at the truck behind Fang Heng and chuckled. “Interesting. Did you come alone? You have some guts.”
“I’m the only one who wants to join. Naturally, I’ll come alone.”
“Hahahaha, good! I admire your confidence! But you have to prove that you’re different from the trash outside.”
“What do you mean?”
“When you came, you should have noticed the nearby shelter, right? I think those people are an eyesore. Go there and make some random destruction to prove your strength.”
“Remember, come back before dawn. You only have one chance.”
[Hint: You have triggered a special mission-Scavenger Army.]
Mission name: Scavenger Army.
Mission description: Pass Roche’s test and obtain the recognition of the Scavenger Army.
Mission requirements: Obtain 500 reputation points of the Scavenger Army (killing survivors, destroying things, looting survivors’ materials and other acts can obtain the Scavenger Army honor points).
“As expected of the villain force, the missions are all so villainous.”
Fang Heng muttered in his heart.
Was this the reason why the Federation issued a ban on players joining the Scavenger Army?
“I’ll be back soon.”
Fang Heng said as he returned to the driver’s seat.
He already had some plans in his heart.
The Dragon Country Game Guild.
It’s you, guys!
Fang Heng opened the map and randomly found a nearby shelter belonging to the Dragon Country Game Guild. He drove the truck quickly.
...
“What? The entire team was wiped out?!”
“Is it still the same attacker from before?”
“It’s not him. It’s a group attack by the Lickers.”
The president of the Dragon Country Game Guild, Niu Xia, hung up the phone.
He felt more and more uneasy.
Was it done by an enemy company?
Was it Crimson Technology? Or was it a mercenary group that was hired?
It didn’t seem like it.
Such a way of doing things was too weird.
“Spread the word. From now on, cancel all non-essential activities in the game and reduce the range of activities. Temporarily abandon the apocalypse merchant camp and don’t go any closer.”
After thinking for a short while, Niu Xia immediately gave the order. “Also, issue another announcement. Send out the news that we have received an unknown group of high-intensity Lickers.”
“Okay, president, I will do it right away.”
The subordinate nodded. Just as he turned around to leave, he hesitated again.
