977 An Acquaintance
Seeing the teleportation gate open, the members of the Federation’s investigation team who had been sitting on the edge of rocks to rest all stood up.
Pan Wuzhi, the leader of the inspection team, put away his lazy look and stretched, “It seems that it’s our turn to perform.”
Yao Weihua and Pan Wuzhi had a brief discussion, and the inspection team stepped into the teleportation pa.s.sage to explore the way first.
Soon, the two Federation soldiers who had followed the inspection team into the teleportation gate returned quickly, “Sir, there’s another cave on the other side of the teleportation gate, but the lifeblood concentration in that cave is much higher than here.”
Yao Weihua waved his hand, “Team one and team two, follow me. We’ll go in and investigate. The rest of you, stay outside and wait for orders.”
“Yes!”
Seeing that the crowd was leaving quickly, Zhong Haoyang signaled to Fang Heng with his eyes, asking if they should follow them to the other end of the pa.s.sage to take a look.
Fang Heng touched his chin and stretched out his hand, “Let me take a look at the map on the tablet.”
Zhong Haoyang pa.s.sed the tablet to Fang Heng.
While checking the tablet, Fang Heng said in a low voice, “The teleportation pa.s.sage doesn’t consume much energy. Most of the blood’s power is absorbed by the magic array, and only a small portion is used for the energy consumption of the teleportation.”
“Hmm?” Zhong Haoyang didn’t understand and asked, “What do you mean?”
“First of all, the low energy consumption means that the teleportation distance won’t be very far. The other end of the teleportation pa.s.sage should be nearby, but most of the surrounding areas on the Federation’s map have been explored, so I think the exit is probably in the area below us.”
“I see.”
“Second, look over there.”
Zhong Haoyang looked in the direction that Fang Heng was pointing. Hundreds of Federation soldiers were gathered in front of the teleportation magic array, lining up to transfer blood to the stone statue in turns to keep the teleportation pa.s.sage open.
“The magic array is huge, and the teleportation gate is only a small part of it. Most of the blood is absorbed and converted by the magic array. This energy is probably used in other places. It’s very suspicious.”
“Oh… then we…” Zhong Haoyang was observing the magic array and was about to say something when two players from the players’ department of the Federation operations department rushed back from the one-way pa.s.sage.
“The teleportation pa.s.sage area has been attacked by the vampire. Teams 5 and 6, come in to reinforce! The rest of the teams, stand by!”
Vampires?
“Let’s go and take a look,” Fang Heng said immediately.
With that, the two of them immediately entered the teleportation pa.s.sage as well.
…
At the other end of the teleportation pa.s.sage, many high-tier vampires were fighting with the federal team.
The Federation had set up searchlights at the exit of the teleportation pa.s.sage.
However, in the blood mist, visibility in the dark cave was still poor.
The members of the Federation’s operations department used the protruding rocks as cover and used firearms to attack the vampires in the blood mist.
The inspection team’s elite team rushed into the vampires and began a b.l.o.o.d.y ma.s.sacre.
Fang Heng didn’t join the battle. Instead, he hid behind a huge rock with Zhong Haoyang and watched.
Pan Wuzhi’s team was not weak, and they were more than enough to deal with these ordinary high-tier vampires.
“They don’t seem like much…” Fang Heng said in a low voice, “The Federation’s investigation team is only at this level? Wouldn’t it be a little difficult to deal with Jian Muzhi then? The inspection team I met in the North District last time was much stronger than them. They could even fight the Prince to a standstill.”
Speechless, Zhong Haoyang explained, “Mr. Fang, it’s not like that. The strength of each Federation division is indeed different, but Pan Wuzhi and his team are C-level combat teams. The one you saw in the Eastern Federation that could defeat the Prince was probably an A-level combat team. This time, eight A-level combat teams and one quasi-S-level combat team have come too, but we didn’t run into them.”
It was the first time Fang Heng was hearing this.
So it turned out the inspection team’s squads were divided into different levels.
“A quasi-S-level? Why didn’t the Federation just get an S-level team over? Wouldn’t that be more stable?”
“It’s not that easy. The information on the members of S-level teams is top secret to the outside world. They will only be allowed to act after being authorized by the Central Federation. Moreover, many of them are not directly trained by the Federation, so it’s very difficult to mobilize them.”
“I get it. You have to pay, right?”
Fang Heng pursed his lips, thinking that he could also act as a hatchet man of the Federation Inspection Bureau. He might even get some benefits from it.
“Is it very profitable to join an Inspection Bureau like yours?”
“Huh?” Zhong Haoyang was a little confused by Fang Heng’s question.
Fang Heng was already so powerful, but he didn’t even know the basic policies of the Federation?
“The Inspection Bureau’s teams are divided into direct teams and supernumerary teams. The direct teams have a quota for external recruitment every year, but supernumerary teams don’t have any, so the review application is much more relaxed,”
Zhong Haoyang explained, “In fact, the Federation has always had a hard time in advanced games. The Federation hopes to use the power of the players to deal with various anti-Federation forces. As long as you register and join the Federation Inspection Bureau team, you can get a certain amount of allowance every month even if you don’t do any work.”
“Wait, Mr. Fang, all this information should’ve been given to you after you completed the Federation registration, right?” Zhong Haoyang thought of something while he was talking. He turned around and looked at Fang Heng, “Hey, it can’t be you…”
Fang Heng said righteously, “I’m sorry, I didn’t register.”
“No wonder.”
“From what you’ve said, it’s quite easy to join the inspection team?”
Easy?
Zhong Haoyang felt like he had just heard the funniest joke in the world.
It was not simple at all!
“You’re the only one who would say it’s easy. The inspection team only recruits players who have officially filed their records. Not only do they check their background, but their bottom line is that the player must at least be able to unlock the first stage of the “lock”. The bottom-level teams like F-level teams have more relaxed conditions. Starting from D-level teams, the players are required to unlock the second stage of the “lock”. The difficulty of promotion will increase subsequently, and the background checks will also become more and more stringent.”
Fang Heng nodded and continued to look at Pan Wuzhi and the others.
The Federation’s C-level team could easily deal with the high-tier vampires, and the vampires were a little overwhelmed.
“Eh?” Fang Heng’s mind suddenly sensed something.
Not far away, a group of vampires was approaching the Federation’s inspection team at full speed.
“Hahahaha! Stupid humans! As expected, they’re here to die!” Among the vampires, a vampire Marquis in the lead was laughing arrogantly, “Everything is within Mr. Jian’s expectations. In that case, die here!”
It was him?! The vampire Marquis Maica!
Fang Heng’s eyelids twitched.
It seemed that Maica had escaped with Jian Muzhi after they separated in the real world.
Maica didn’t notice Fang Heng. He laughed arrogantly and joined the battle, leading the vampires to attack the Federation.
“Ha, you’re sharp-tongued,” Pan Wuzhi immediately led his team members to fight.
Fang Heng’s brows were knitted tightly.
The lifeblood in the surroundings increased Maica’s strength by a large degree, but he still couldn’t defeat the combined attack of the five people from the Federation investigation team.
