Chapter 1805 Dirty Tricks
"Boom, Boom Boom..."
Just as everyone was hesitating, the sarcophagus started to shake uncontrollably.
It was as if something was struggling to break free from the sarcophagus.
The players did not dare to make any movements and took a few steps back.
Fang Heng broke the silence and looked at Nasto. He said in a deep voice, "Not good, the corpse has been resurrected."
Nasto was shocked and turned to look at Fang Heng. He asked, "Really? Are you sure?"
Fang Heng didn"t answer. He just raised his hand forward.
The dark Book of the Dead appeared in the air.
"Pfft! Chi Chi!!!"
The soul chains that had condensed into a solid form darted out of the Book of the Dead and wrapped around the sarcophagus tightly, lifting it into the air.
When everyone saw Fang Heng"s necromancy skill, they swallowed their doubts.
Fang Heng continued, "We don"t have much time. I can"t keep suppressing the sarcophagus for too long. Give me an answer as soon as possible. We still have a chance. We can tamper with the remains, or we can report it to the higher-ups of the federal team and accept the Federation"s investigation."
Cold sweat broke out on Nasto"s forehead. In just half a minute, he quickly thought about the various consequences in his mind.
"Good! We"ll do as you say!"
Nasto no longer hesitated and immediately made the decision. He said, "It"s already come to this. The worst-case scenario is that we"ll still be the ones to take the blame. Let"s all attack together. If something happens, no one can escape."
"Okay, be careful!"
Seeing that Nasto had made up his mind, Fang Heng immediately controlled the lid of the sarcophagus in the air to slowly open.
"Ka ka, ka ka..."
Everyone stared intently at the sarcophagus floating in the air.
The coffin lid was slowly pulled open by the soul chains.
"Boom!!!"
An explosion!
"Whoosh!!"
After the corpse was revived, it immediately broke through the weak spatial barrier in the inner layer of the sarcophagus and swooped down toward Fang Heng!
Nasto shouted, "Help him!"
Several players gathered together to form a spatial barrier in front of Fang Heng.
"Bang!!!"
The corpse seemed to have hit an invisible wall of s.p.a.ce. With a thud, it was sent flying backward.
As it flew backward, the resurrected corpse let out cracking sounds. Black muzzles appeared under its skin.
Lu Yanlong"s heart skipped a beat when he saw this. He shouted, "It"s a beam weapon! Everyone, be careful!"
"Whoosh! Whoosh, Whoosh, Whoosh!!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a dense beam of light shot out from the cannon!
"Boom! Boom Boom!!!"
The beam weapon instantly shattered the spatial barrier!
The remaining light beams fired at the players!
All the players present were proficient in spatial science. Seeing this, they quickly retreated into the secondary s.p.a.ce projection to avoid the attack.
After a round of artillery fire, Fang Heng flew out from another secondary s.p.a.ce projection and caught up with the resurrected corpse. He swung his alloy metal rod and smashed it fiercely at the corpse"s forehead!
"Bang!"
A dent appeared on the corpse"s forehead and it was sent flying again!
"Hurry up! Bind it!"
The remaining players also left the secondary s.p.a.ce projection one by one. With everyone"s combined efforts, the corpse lifeform was firmly trapped in place by a spatial spell, unable to move.
Fang Heng flew forward and chased after it, continuously waving his alloy long rod and attacking crazily.
The HP of the first resurrected corpse was not very high. In just a short moment, the HP of the resurrected body was quickly depleted and it fell to the ground motionless.
Seeing this, Nasto immediately surrounded the corpse with everyone.
"How is it?"
Fang Heng bent down and examined the mechanical corpse for a moment. He nodded and said, "Yes, just as I expected. The corpse has a special mutation reaction."
Nasto asked nervously, "Can you handle it?"
"It"s not a big problem. The sarcophagus hasn"t been destroyed yet. We can put the corpse back into the sarcophagus and seal it again. We can set up a spatial magic array inside. I"ll think of a way to tamper with the corpse. If someone opens the sarcophagus, the corpse will revive, and the entire sarcophagus will be affected."
Fang Heng knew what Nasto wanted to ask. He paused and looked back at Nasto, saying, "Unless someone is proficient in both spatial science and necromancy, we won"t be discovered."
"Cheers!"
Hearing Fang Heng"s words, Nasto decided to give it his all and said, "Everyone, we"re all in the same boat now. No one wants to be examined by the Federation. Hurry up. There"s less than four hours before dawn. We have to restore everything before then!"
Everyone had already boarded Fang Heng"s pirate ship. They immediately moved the corpse back into the sarcophagus and continued to follow Fang Heng"s instructions to set up a layer of spatial protection on the upper level.
Of course, due to time constraints, the defensive layer was set up extremely simply, and it was easy to see through.
Then, everyone looked at Fang Heng again.
Fang Heng set up a small magic array inside the sarcophagus. He then walked forward and wrapped a small piece of the original devouring body stimulating compound that could activate the corpse with spatial power and placed it on the spatial layer.
"Alright, you can go next."
Everyone looked at Fang Heng"s actions and could not help but be stunned.
Was it that simple?
Just put such a small thing?
Nasto was a little worried and asked, "Fang Heng, can you really guarantee 100% safety?"
"Yes, in order to prevent being discovered, other than this sarcophagus, the other sarcophagi also need to be processed. Time is a little tight, so I suggest we start immediately."
Fang Heng looked up at Nasto and said, "I won"t joke around with my life."
"Yes."
Time was running out, so he didn"t have time to think. Nasto continued to call for the players to open the next sarcophagus.
Less than three seconds after the second sarcophagus was opened, the corpse was revived by the virus in Fang Heng"s body again and rushed towards Fang Heng!
"Get rid of it!"
This time, the players were mentally prepared. They set up a spatial barrier to absorb the damage before the concentrated beam bombardment arrived.
After the mechanically resurrected corpse finished its first round of attacks and went into cooldown, the players once again used their spatial power to firmly confine it.
In the end, Fang Heng would take action to empty its HP.
The players did not realize that the resurrected corpse"s aggro was focused on Fang Heng.
As for the fifth and sixth time, the players were already used to it. They even made preparations in advance. Before the corpse completely recovered, they would use spatial skills to firmly lock onto it and then quickly kill it.
As the cooperation between the players became more and more proficient, it only took them a short two hours to kill all the mechanical resurrected bodies in the sarcophagi in advance and seal them again.
After confirming that there was no mistake, everyone returned the nine sarcophagi to their original positions.
"Fang Heng, are you confident?"
Even though he knew very well that they had no way out, Nasto could not help but ask.
"I"m confident."
Fang Heng nodded and replied, "We might be in danger after the spatial fluctuation erupts. We"ll evacuate immediately."
