Chapter 2648 Mine Pit


    As they spoke, the two of them exited the pit and got into an off-road vehicle that was parked nearby.


    The off-road vehicle sped forward, covering a two-hour journey.


    After more than two hours, the vehicle entered a small town.


    The town looked very dpidated. As they drove through, Fang Heng noticed that there were hardly any people on the streets.


    "Mine Town, as you can probably guess from the name, was originally established to develop the nearby mines. But after a few years of mining, they discovered that the ore reserves weren''t as high as expected, and soon the mine was exhausted."


    "Afterward, the developmentpany folded, and the town fell into decay. Most of the residents moved to a nearbyrger city. Now, the town is in a semi-abandoned state."


    Soon, the off-road vehicle reached the heart of the town and stopped outside a stadium.


    "The small town''s stadium had been abandoned years ago, and usually no onees here. I hired the ce using a ritual, purchasing it under your name as the employer."


    "Also, as per your request, I hired local gang members to guard the ce 24/7. To avoid unnecessary trouble, I won''t have any direct involvement with them. So whatever you n to do next, I''m not aware of it."


    Yan Yuexin said as she handed over an ID card to Fang Heng, "This is the ID card. I''ve never had direct contact with the gang, but they recognize the card."


    "Very good." Fang Heng took the card from her, nodding slightly. "Thank you."


    Yan Yuexin watched as Fang Heng got out of the car and walked toward the gang members outside the stadium. Under their guidance, he entered the venue.


    "This guy..." Yan Yuexin muttered under her breath, her eyes narrowing with a hint of caution.


    Although she had only interacted with Fang Heng for a short time, she had already sensed that he was no ordinary person.


    Recently, the undead faction had been heavily suppressed by the Holy Court in the mid-tier game worlds, even being forced to withdrawpletely from two mid-level worlds.


    Now, suddenly, they were focusing on an advanced game world?


    And it just happened to be the War Ruins World, the very one she was in.


    Coincidence?


    It shouldn''t be some kind ofrge-scale direct war, right?


    After all, from Yan Yuexin''s perspective, the War Ruins was upied by the Holy Court''s high-tier forces, and this cursed ce didn''t have any undead faction presence. There was nothing here for the undead faction to destroy.


    But...


    What was that personing here for this time?


    ...


    After presenting the ID card, Fang Heng entered the abandoned gym with the guidance of the gang leader and several members of the gang.


    "How is it, brother? This ce looks good, right?"


    Fang Heng scanned the interior of the venue, nodding slightly.


    The area wasrge enough.


    "Mm, it''s fine. You can leave now. Keep an eye on your men and make sure no one steps inside the venue, not even your subordinates."


    "Hey! What are you talking about!"


    The gang member immediately took offense at Fang Heng''s tone and stepped forward, shouting angrily, "How dare you speak to our boss like that!"


    Fang Heng turned his head, his gaze locking on the gang member.


    In that instant, the gang member felt as if some terrifying force had fixed its eyes on him. His body tensed to the extreme, blood rushing as if it were flowing backward,pletely losing control of his body. All he could hear was his heart pounding furiously!


    He was going to die!


    The gang member felt as though Death itself had gripped his throat, his consciousness gradually fading.


    "Sir, my subordinate doesn''t know better. Please give him another chance. I''ll make sure to educate him properly when we get back."


    The gang leader, drenched in sweat, stepped forward hesitantly, blocking his subordinate, with a forced, pleading smile on his face.


    Fang Heng slowly averted his gaze from the gang member, who immediately copsed to the ground like a ragdoll, unable to move.


    "Sir, you''re too kind. I''ll make sure he apologizes to you properly." The gang leader sighed with relief and continued, "As for the remaining payment..."


    "I''ll settle it with you after we''re done here."


    "Of course, of course! Your reputation is impable. We definitely trust you."


    The gang leader smiled obsequiously, signaling for two of his men to help their unconsciousrade to his feet. Then, with a wave of his hand, they hurriedly left.


    After the gang left the venue, Fang Heng slowly looked around, taking in the surroundings. He walked to the center of the gym and knelt down, starting to set up a magic array.


    Just as he was halfway through the setup, the zombie clone he had prepared earlier finished its countdown and was resurrected.


    A series of magic arrays appeared around the clone''s body.


    Arge number of Lickers erupted from the magic arrays, rushing toward the various exits of the venue. Within moments, the entire gymnasium waspletely overrun.


    The Lickers left behind in the hall quickly formed flesh cocoons, sealing themselves within.


    From these flesh cocoons, the regr zombie clones crawled out, moving in sync with Fang Heng. They began assisting him in drawing arge magic array on the floor.


    ...


    Yan Yuexin waited outside the gym for a full 12 hours.


    She waited from day to night.


    Several times, she considered whether she should go inside the gym to check things out.


    In the end, she chose to stay outside.


    Curiosity killed the cat.


    Yan Yuexin kept reminding herself, forcing down her curiosity.


    Finally, she saw Fang Heng walk out of the gym.


    After leaving the gym, Fang Heng went straight to the car, skillfully took the front passenger seat, and closed the door.


    "Sorry to keep you waiting."


    Yan Yuexin couldn''t help but ask, "Is it all done?"


    "Not yet, but it''s almost done." n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    Fang Heng adjusted to a morefortable position, fastened his seatbelt, and said, "Let''s go."


    Yan Yuexin nced at Fang Heng, pursed her lips, pressed the gas pedal, and sped away from the gym.


    "Where are you nning to go? I can follow you, but just so you know, you need to hide your undead aura well. If you get discovered, I won''t go easy on you."


    "Don''t worry, my aura is well concealed. I need to go to the Holy Court Cathedral to find the Archbishop. Other high-level people would work too, but the Archbishop is the minimum requirement."


    "Hmm?" Yan Yuexin was taken aback by what she heard. She stopped looking ahead and turned her head to stare at Fang Heng in the passenger seat. "What did you just say?"


    "I said, I need to go to the Cathedral."


    Yan Yuexin''s face darkened.


    Now Yan Yuexin understood why the mission reward was so generous.


    He was alive and well, yet he was going to the Holy Court Cathedral to seek death?


    Was he ying around?


    If Fang Bai got into trouble, she''d be in trouble too.


    "You''ve gone mad, haven''t you? Are you trying to die faster? If you want to die, don''t drag me into it."


    "Trust me, it''ll be fine."


    Fang Heng said this calmly as he spread his hands forward.


    In an instant, dark golden light surged around him.


    Yan Yuexin''s eyes caught a glimpse of the radiance emanating from Fang Heng. Her pupils immediately constricted.


    That holy light was blinding to her.
