Chapter 1827 City of Darkness
After Gu Qingzhu finished her last sentence, her head tilted and she fainted again.
Fana had been observing Gu Qingzhu through the rearview mirror. When she saw that she had fainted again, she could not help but frown. She thought for a moment and asked, "Fang Heng, she just said that she was from the same race. Is she a demi-human?"
Fang Heng raised his eyebrows.
Indeed, the defensive barrier that was set up by the Federation was targeted at the demi-human race. Combined with Gu Qingzhu"s words just now, it was very likely that she was a demi-human.
Therefore, he was just unlucky this time. He happened to encounter such a thing when he went to school to steal things!
Fang Heng nodded and replied, "Very likely."
Fana asked, "How credible do you think her words are?"
Fang Heng nodded again and pondered.
After Gu Qingzhu broke the outer barrier just now, the stars that fell when it exploded were very likely to be the traces left behind by the barrier.
Fang Heng tried to close his eyes again.
Not good!
There was still a blue net seal on the wooden door to enter the game.
His strength in the game was still sealed!
He was in big trouble!
Fang Heng opened his eyes and nodded as he replied, "Yes, it should be true."
He then asked, "What kind of place is the City of Darkness?"
"It"s a special area. That place can block the perception and tracking of the outside world to a large extent. The Federation"s control over that area is very low. Many factions have gathered together to occupy that area."
"They"re all small fries who can"t be seen in public. They"re just a motley crew."
Fang Heng asked as he glanced at the unconscious Gu Qingzhu, "Is there anything else you can do to avoid the Federation"s investigation?"
Fana thought for a moment and shook her head. She said, "There are indeed a few places that can avoid being tracked by the outside world. However, I can"t confirm the type of tracking mark that is left on your body. I can"t guarantee that it will be effective. The City of Darkness is indeed the most suitable place."
"Alright, let"s go to the City of Darkness."
...
Haines School.
In the Federation command center, the entire special investigation team was working at full speed.
The first phase of the mission was not completed perfectly.
Gu Qingzhu, the hidden leader behind Sang Dazhi, broke through the blockade of the inspection team"s elites at the last moment and escaped from the besieged area.
The higher-ups of the Federation"s Inspection Bureau were furious. They immediately sent out an even stronger special team, demanding that the suspect, Gu Qingzhu, be arrested and brought to justice.
Kleinman was extremely excited.
He had caught a big fish, and it was an unexpected big fish!
However, Gu Qingzhu"s strength had exceeded Kleinman and the Federation"s Inspection Bureau"s expectations.
The enemy was so strong that she could break through the encirclement of the Federation"s investigation team!
"Team Leader, we"ve successfully captured Sang Dazhi and Chepo. Both of them are seriously injured and exhausted. They"re being sent to a special medical inst.i.tution for treatment. The situation doesn"t look good. In addition, Gu Qingzhu is seriously injured. She has already broken through the school"s periphery barrier and is currently fleeing. The casualties of the Inspection Bureau are still being tabulated."
"According to your instructions, all the entrances/exits and exits of the city have been sealed off. The Inspection Bureau has already mobilized special elites to pursue Gu Qingzhu. I believe there will be feedback soon."
Kleinman nodded lightly.
He had already laid down an inescapable net.
Gu Qingzhu...
She definitely couldn"t escape!
Kleinman was already thinking about his next step.
When Gu Qingzhu was caught, he would use Gu Qingzhu as a starting point to eradicate the demi-human race forces hidden in the Central Federation"s cities!
Kleinman pondered and noticed that his subordinate had not left and asked, "Is there anything else?"
"It"s about Fang Heng. We"re currently conducting a personnel investigation. When the incident happened, the two members who arrested Fang Heng were seriously injured and unconscious. We found that Fang Heng has temporarily disappeared."
"Yes."
Kleinman"s expression darkened.
"He"s still in school, right? Find him and arrest him immediately."
"We haven"t found Fang Heng for the time being. In addition, the probe team found that there was another marked person who escaped with Gu Qingzhu."
There were companions?
Kleinman asked, "Who is it?"
The subordinate said hesitantly, "We"re investigating. We haven"t confirmed the target"s ident.i.ty yet. We believe that person is Fang Heng."
...
Under the night sky, Fana drove her car all the way.
On the way, she contacted the team from the Black Castle through a special channel.
"The location of the City of Darkness is outside the city. The incident that just happened in Haines School had a huge impact. The Federation has set up a periphery blockade of the city. We"ll break through from the small road later. We"ll run into the Federation"s obstruction during this period."
Fana reminded, "Don"t worry, our people are already in position. They will help us break through the Federation"s defense line."
"Thank you. I owe you a favor again."
Fana nodded and replied, "You"re welcome, Fang Heng. Our cooperation has always been very pleasant. Trust me, compared to what you"ve helped us with, this is nothing."
Fang Heng remembered this favor and glanced at Gu Qingzhu, who was unconscious beside him.
He didn"t know if meeting Gu Qingzhu was a good thing or a bad thing.
The temporary loss of the ability to enter the game was a huge weakness for him.
Gu Qingzhu should have a way to recover.
Fang Heng had a strong premonition that through Gu Qingzhu, he would be able to figure out his secret.
Soon, the sounds of intense battle could be heard in front of them.
The Federation had already sealed off all the exits of the city as soon as they received the order from their superiors.
But the entire city was huge.
It was impossible to completely cut off all the entrances/exits and exits in a short period.
The plan that the Black Castle had prepared in advance was now showing its effect. They had arranged the escape route and were ready to fight the Federation head-on.
Now was the perfect time.
The Black Castle team had made their move in advance and cleared the obstacles for Fana.
Fana drove the off-road vehicle smoothly through the blockade set up by the Federation and made a detour in the direction of the City of Darkness.
"Thank you."
Seeing that he was out of danger, Fang Heng relaxed a little. He thanked her again and asked, "By the way, you haven"t told me what kind of place the City of Darkness is."
Fana explained after some thought, "It"s hard to give an exact definition. Do you know about the game rift?"
"Is it related to the game?"
"Yes, in recent years, the boundary between the world and the game has been gradually disappearing. Game rifts have appeared all over the world, and the frequency is increasing. The various regions and the Federation have been repairing new game rifts, and the investment in recent years has also been increasing."
"Most of the worlds connected to the game rifts are different, and most of them are one-way transportation channels. They can only enter our world from the other side. Once the rift appears, it will often cause a great disturbance in the local area."
"By the way, you"ve been to the Necromancer a.s.sociation. The death realm crevice is also a type of game rift. Some rifts can be destroyed by the Federation, but there are also a few rifts that cannot be destroyed, so they can only be sealed."
"There is still a small portion of the seal that cannot be completely removed. The Federation can only lock the periphery areas."
