Chapter 307: Special Event
“Therefore, my plan is for all of us to withdraw from this special event this time, leaving only the prison side to partic.i.p.ate in the fight against the players from the other three major federal regions.”
“Our team has done a data model a.n.a.lysis. According to our preconceived a.s.sumptions, as long as all of our major guild companies do not partic.i.p.ate in this special event, Fang Heng’s death rate in the game will be as high as 99% .”
Everyone fell silent again after hearing this.
In the game, players would not immediately revive after they died. Instead, they would be punished and would not be able to enter the game for some time.
This period was enough for them to join forces to deal with the prison.
“It seems to be feasible.” Li Ru asked, “But how can you be sure that he will partic.i.p.ate in this special event? Fang Heng is not easy to deal with.”
“He will go. I have received news that Fang Heng is in desperate need of pyroxene ore.”
“We just need to spread the news that there will be rewards for pyroxene ore in this special event compet.i.tion. Fang Heng will partic.i.p.ate.”
“After he goes there, he will realize that our Eastern Region only has a few scattered regions. That scene will be very interesting.”
“Even if he luckily pa.s.ses the first stage, the other three Federations’ game guilds will swallow him up!”
He Liang smiled.
“Admittedly, giving up on partic.i.p.ating in this special event is a loss for us. Choosing the lesser of two evils should be something that everyone should understand.”
“If there are no objections, let’s vote. This news must not be leaked in advance.”
...
[Hint: Your book-Occult Guide (current reading progress: 10.01%).]
In the study, Fang Heng put down the occult book and rubbed his temples.
Since the last Blood Moon ended, these two days had been quite fulfilling.
During the day, he read and slept. At night, he took Sandy everywhere to accept missions and bring strong men back to the shelter.
Fang Heng casually turned on his phone and looked at the latest news.
Huh?
In the forum of Server 8, a red headline at the top attracted Fang Heng’s attention.
“The first battle of Server 8! Special event will begin in 24 hours. Federation’s major forces in the Eastern Region take stock!”
Fang Heng was curious and clicked on it.
He opened the post and quickly skimmed through the content. Fang Heng suddenly understood.
Special event!
He almost forgot.
In today’s world, the world was divided into four major Federations. The four Federations were independent and were collectively known as the Global Federation. They were controlled by the Central a.s.sembly.
The game world seemed to follow this rule.
According to the initial location of the player who entered the game, most of the players from the four federal regions would appear randomly in the four pre-distributed regions in the game.
The territory of the apocalypse game was very large. Fang Heng had never been to other areas of the world except for the last time he searched for the furnace.
It seemed that to provoke disputes between players, in the elementary game, a special event would occur once every six months or so.
This was a special event that targeted players since the game was opened. The special event encouraged players to fight against one another.
In the beginning, the Federation appealed to the player guilds to be rational and allocate resources together. They did not want to make unnecessary sacrifices.
Unfortunately, the effect was very limited.
Resources that could be obtained during special events were too abundant and very attractive!
Not only did the gaming union factions that belonged to different federal regions fight for resources, but sometimes when they were anxious, even their own people from the same federal region would also fight for resources.
In the end, the Federation simply did not stop them. They even sent people to partic.i.p.ate.
Of course, the Federation would never take the initiative to attack the players.
When he saw the description of the reward for this special event in the post, Fang Heng’s eyes immediately lit up!
What kind of treasures were these!
A large number of special ores! A large number of guns and weapons! A large number of food and materials! A large number of high-level tools!
The ores included pyroxene!
Fang Heng’s heart was thumping wildly.
He couldn’t miss it! He definitely had to partic.i.p.ate in this special event!
If he could use this opportunity to obtain pyroxene and remaining special rare ores, the progress of the Tier 3 s.p.a.ce tearing device would be accelerated!
However, this special event seemed to be quite troublesome. Apart from facing a high-intensity zombie horde, he would also have to face a large number of players from the other three federal regions. Even the Federation would also partic.i.p.ate in this event.
Fang Heng was thinking about it when his phone rang.
It was Chen Yu.
Chen Yu’s tone was sour. “Congratulations, Fang Heng. You’ve made a big profit again.”
“Huh? What big profit?”
“The shelter has re-examined the iron mine. They found that the signal of the blue crystal ore has become unusually weak. They concluded that this mine has been mined.”
Chen Yu sighed silently.
“Fang Heng, don’t tell me you don’t know about this. Night Owl’s people have never had time to mine the blue crystal ores, and the Federation has never done so. In Server 8, the only person who has the ability to mine this area is you.”
D*mn, the elimination method!
Fang Heng felt that he could not defend himself.
“Oh, well, it’s a small profit. Why? Your Federation can’t be so stingy as to ask me to return the ores right?”
“Stop joking, the name of our Federation isn’t written on the ores. You obtained it through normal means and the superiors have no reason to ask you for it.”
Chen Yu’s internal monologue, “Don’t I understand you? Even if I ask you to return the ores, you won’t give them back.”
The Federation had already discussed it internally. Currently, everything was based on the premise of stabilizing Server 8. There was no need for them to get into an argument with Fang Heng over this small amount of ores.
Moreover, it was much better for the ores to land in Fang Heng’s hands than it was in the hands of Night Owl’s group.
“Because of the Night Owl incident, Zhang Zhe has already been arranged for an internal investigation. I reckon that this period of time will not be easy. After the investigation is over, there will still be many troublesome matters waiting for him. By the way, my outstanding performance has also been acknowledged by my superiors. I’ve been promoted.”
“Haha, congratulations, congratulations. Let’s go out for a drink when there’s time. It’s on you.”
“Definitely, definitely. It’s all thanks to your help.”
Chen Yu’s mood was still very good. “The superiors really want to know how you managed to control the Tyrant. The Federation really wants to obtain technology related to this. You can casually mention the terms of the exchange.”
“There’s no need to think about it. This thing is not for sale. This time, working with your Federation has also caused me to lose a large number of Lickers and Tyrant forms.”
Fang Heng started to whine and sighed, “Sigh! The losses were huge.”
Chen Yu listened to Fang Heng’s words and was almost fooled at first. He wanted to comfort him.
As the words were on the tip of his tongue, he suddenly felt that something was not right.
Chen Yu scratched his head.
“But Fang Heng, when I visited your shelter last time, the Tyrants and Lickers were also there, right?”
“And it seems that you were the one who chose to let Tier 4 crystallized form evolve, right? This loss is within your expectations, right?”
“Uh...”
Fang Heng felt that Chen Yu seemed to have learned a lot during this period of time, and it was getting harder and harder to trick him.
“Alright, if you change your mind, feel free to contact me. Our Federation is very sincere.”
“I understand. If I have any intentions, I will contact you.”
Chen Yu cleared his throat and continued, “There’s another very important matter. Have you heard that a special event is about to start?”
