Chapter 1581 - 1581 Missing
1581 Missing
“Follow me.”
Li Qingran didn’t even care what Fang Heng was doing in the fallen corridor with his men. She brought Fang Heng to an empty corner of the hall and asked in a low voice, “Aren’t you trapped in Punoze? When did you come out?”
“Not long ago.”
Fang Heng made a gesture to keep quiet.
“Senior, please help me keep this a secret. You know that I’m in quite a bit of trouble right now.”
“Yes.”
Li Qingran nodded.
When she first found out that Fang Heng was trapped in the Frost h.e.l.l in Punoze, she was very worried.
However, Teacher Pu Shi said that the kid wouldn’t be in danger, so she could rest a.s.sured.
Teacher d.i.c.key was still going on with his normal routine and did not take the fact that Fang Heng was trapped to heart at all.
As expected.
A few days later, Fang Heng appeared in front of her again.
Li Qingran thought of the trouble she had encountered in Punoze.
Although this junior was young, he had just learned the necromancy for less than a year.
His potential was so great that it made the others feel despair!
He even ran into the depths of the Frost h.e.l.l in Punoze and didn’t leave until the opening day ended.
He actually came out unscathed!
Should she ask him for help?
Perhaps he could create a miracle?
Fang Heng didn’t know what Li Qingran was thinking and asked, “Senior, why are you here?”
“Yes, the seal of the death realm has been repaired. During this period of time, we still need someone to take care of it and reinforce it. Teacher is in charge of the reinforcement work over there, and the other two instructors are investigating the disappearance of the holy artifacts. They can’t leave either. I’ll rush back in the next two days to help with the restoration of the fallen corridor.”
Li Qingran came back to her senses and explained in a low voice. Her expression became a little more serious, and she whispered to Fang Heng, “Junior, I went to Punoze before and encountered quite a bit of trouble. I might need Junior’s help with something later.”
“Senior also went to Punoze before?” Fang Heng was surprised for a moment, then nodded and said, “Of course. Senior has always taken good care of me. If you need anything, just call me.”
“Then I’ll thank you first. There are too many people here. I’ll find time to chat with you later.”
As Li Qingran spoke, she turned her head to look at Fang Heng’s mighty group of subordinates. She could not help but tease, “Junior, you brought so many people here. Could it be that you knew in advance that Senior was in trouble and came to help me rebuild the fallen corridor?”
Fang Heng laughed and replied, “Senior, you’re thinking too much. We’re just going in to take a look and bring something out.”
“Yes, it’s not a problem to let you in. However, as you can see, the interior of the fallen corridor is still very dangerous. You have to be extra careful…”
“No problem.”
“I happen to have a troublesome matter on hand. I won’t accompany you into the fallen corridor this time. I’ll arrange for a few high-ranking scholars to accompany you in to protect your safety.”
“Is it related to the disappearance of the holy artifact you mentioned just now?”
Fang Heng couldn’t help but be curious.
A holy artifact!
Shouldn’t this thing be mastered by others?
One had to know that the holy artifacts had a special characteristic. After obtaining them, they would not be affected by the game world. They could freely accompany the player in and out of the game. They were usually stored in the sea of consciousness or in the backpack.
How could it be stolen so easily?
Even if the holy artifacts were not controlled by the players, shouldn’t they be guarded closely?
How could they disappear so easily?
“Yes, you just escaped from Punoze, so you might not know. A few days ago, a holy artifact was stolen from the Necromancy a.s.sociation. They are investigating it. Many special materials were stolen along with the holy artifact, and some of them were specially funded by the Federation.”
“As you know, once the Federation gets involved, things will become very troublesome. The people from the Federation are leading the investigation. After their investigation, they confirmed that it was done by our internal staff. They suspect that we might have been infiltrated by an unknown person, possibly by anti-federation forces.”
Seeing the confusion on Fang Heng’s face, Li Qingran explained in a few short sentences.
“Holy artifacts are a little special. Ordinary people can’t use them, so they aren’t usually guarded tightly.”
“I understand.”
Li Qingran was having a headache.
She suddenly felt a sense of trouble.
Now, the Necromancer a.s.sociation was at loggerheads with the people from the Holy Court, and they had to reinforce the seal of the death realm internally. With the theft of the holy artifact, they had to find the mole and deal with the internal investigation of the Federation as well.
Thus, the entire organization’s reconstruction work outside the fallen corridor was handed over to her.
Apart from this, she also encountered quite a bit of trouble in her further studies in Punoze.
Fang Heng frowned when he heard all this.
The disappearance of the holy artifact really had nothing to do with him!
So the anti-federation forces had infiltrated the Necromancer a.s.sociation?
He had to be more careful.
…
Fang Heng declined Li Qingran’s offer of help and led more than 30 scholars from the Necromancer a.s.sociation into the depths of the fallen corridor.
The main reason was that he was afraid of trouble.
The scholars sent by Li Qingran to help had at least mastered high-tier necromancy.
These people could easily see through his ident.i.ty and even find clues about him opening the s.p.a.ce pa.s.sage.
Fang Heng wanted to avoid trouble as much as possible.
At this moment, there was still a part of the aura of the death realm leaking out from the fallen corridor. Other than that, there were also a small number of vengeful spirits gathering.
As the team gradually moved forward, Li Shaoqiang and Tan Shuo looked at Fang Heng with a different gaze.
Compared to a month ago, Fang Heng’s progress in the study of necromancy had improved by leaps and bounds!
The first time they saw Fang Heng, he was just a newbie who had just mastered the basics of necromancy.
Now, he could already skillfully control the soul chains, and seven of them at the same time!
Thick soul chains overflowed from the Book of the Dead, tightly binding the soul and quickly dragging it into the Book of the Dead.
Many necromancy players looked at Fang Heng in surprise.
They didn’t know that the person in the necromancer uniform was Fang Heng. They were surprised by the player’s powerful soul control ability.
With Fang Heng leading the way and the advantage in numbers, it took them an hour to pa.s.s through the outer layer of the fallen corridor until they reached the center of the fallen corridor.
They could already see the alloy wall that led to the center of the fallen corridor.
Fang Heng gave Tan Shuo a look.
“Thank you for your hard work. Everyone, please rest here for a moment and wait for a while.”
Tan Shuo did as he had said and called for everyone to rest.
Fang Heng immediately left the crowd and entered the central area of the fallen corridor from the other side.
There was still a high concentration of the aura of the death realm in the central area that had not been completely cleared.
The vengeful spirits sensed the presence of life forms and pounced on Fang Heng.
“Whoosh!!”
A dark golden light bloomed in front of Fang Heng!
Immediately after, more than twenty streaks of light shot out from the Book of Oaths in front of Fang Heng.
“Bang! Bang Bang Bang!!!”
A large number of vengeful spirit creatures exploded!
