National Games: Hang up from the zombie apocalypse

Chapter 3726 Triggered

In fact, the entire "forest" itself is a massive defense matrix.

In addition to concealing its presence, it also possesses powerful defensive and counter-attack capabilities...

Was it Ymir who set this up?

How to deal with the race of gods?

interesting……

Fang Heng pondered silently before turning his gaze away.

Such a strong defensive barrier is something even he might not be able to break through. It would be no problem to deal with ordinary high-strength enemies, or even one or two ordinary members of the God race.

But what if the race of gods were to launch a large-scale invasion...?

I'm afraid we can't stop them.

As the two ventured deeper into the Black Crystal Forest, the concentration of the surrounding black mist rapidly increased.

However, the black fog did not obstruct their vision; they could still clearly see the situation more than 200 meters away.

"The closer to the center of the forest, the stronger and denser the black fog spires become, and the higher the concentration of black fog. We at Blackburg have tried many times to establish an outpost in the forest, but we have failed because of the influence of the black fog. So we had no choice but to settle for establishing a camp outside the forest."

"The pure black orb you are looking for is in the center of the forest, where there is a clearing. However, the area is affected by the ripples emitted by the pure black orb, and ordinary players cannot approach it."

Fang Heng asked, "Have you never tried to touch the pure black pearl?"

"I've tried it. The last time I got close to the pure black orb, I could only get within a hundred meters. If I got any closer, my mental shield would shatter."

Charlene's tone was flat.

Of the nearly one thousand players in the entire Black Fortress, she was the only one who could get within a hundred meters of the Pure Black Orb.

And all she could do was get closer.

The two continued deeper into the forest.

Sure enough, the further in you go, the denser the spires become, with the spacing gradually decreasing from five or six meters to two or three meters. In some places, you even have to turn sideways to pass through.

They went deeper for about ten more minutes.

A series of black mist ripples could be seen spreading outwards from the front.

"Be careful, those are ripples emitted by the pure black orb."

Shalin and Fang Heng simultaneously activated a barrier.

The black mist ripples dissipated quickly upon impacting the barrier between the two.

When Shalin saw Fang Heng easily block the black mist ripples, she nodded secretly.

"This area is about 500 meters away from the pure black orb. From here, you will gradually be affected by the ripples. The further you go, the stronger the ripples will be. If you can't hold on, don't force yourself."

"it is good."

Charlene continued forward.

Soon, the view ahead opened up.

All the spires stop here, forming a complete circle in the center of the forest.

The ring is about two hundred meters in diameter, and the inside is an open and exceptionally flat area.

In the very center of the open space, a fist-sized, pure black bead floated three meters above the ground, slowly rotating.

Fang Heng's gaze was fixed on the black sphere.

A pure black gem!

The core essence of the game world.

The real object is exactly the same as what I saw in the illusion!

Charlene stopped at the edge of the circle.

The ripples released by the pure black orb collided with the mental barrier released by Shalin, creating continuous waves.

She looked at Fang Heng.

She was very curious as to why Fang Heng had gone to such great lengths to find the pure black pearl.

Just a glance?

Fang Heng examined the pure black pearl for a moment and said, "I'll give it a try."

After saying that, Fang Heng flicked his wrist and took out a metal mesh cover from his backpack, then threw it towards the direction of the pure black pearl in the distance.

"Fuck!"

The net unfolded in mid-air, precisely covering the pure black orb.

The next second, the ripples spreading outward from the surface of the pearl were visibly suppressed, and the amplitude of the ripples was reduced by nearly ten times!

Huh?

This is?

The intensity of the ripples in the pure black orb was suppressed?

For countless years, the Black Fortress has passed down its traditions from generation to generation, trying countless methods but failing to suppress the ripples of black mist...

Charlene looked at the pure black jewel covered by the metal mesh, then at Fang Heng, her face filled with disbelief.

In the year since they last met, Fang Heng's strength had increased dramatically, reaching a level that even she couldn't see through. Moreover, he had developed a wider variety of strange and unusual methods and tricks than before.

"what is this?"

“I have seen similar jewels in other places, and this is one I took from another jewel.”

Fang Heng briefly told Shalin about the various types of gems he had encountered in different worlds during his previous games.

When Shalin heard Fang Heng describe the game world of hell, the undead, and so on, she was even more astonished.

She had only heard of most of the worlds, yet Fang Heng had already completed them?

So what exactly did Fang Heng experience during this year?

I thought that by exploring the legacy of Blackburg across generations, I had already touched upon the core of the game.

Now it seems that Fang Heng's exploration of the game is no less than that of Blackburg!

“I see.” Charlene quickly processed the clues Fang Heng had given her and said, “It seems that Ymir, the game’s creator, does not want the Pure Black Orb to fall into the hands of the gods.”

"Okay," Fang Heng said, "Let's go check on the Pure Black Pearl first."

"it is good."

Charlene still had many questions in her mind, but now was not the time to ask them. She simply kept them to herself for the time being and planned to ask them later when she had time.

Due to the presence of the net, the power of the ripples released by the pure black orb was greatly reduced.

Fang Heng didn't feel the pressure until he was about thirty meters away from the pearl.

Meanwhile, the mental barrier surrounding Charlene's body was already under immense pressure.

Fang Heng stopped in his tracks.

This distance is sufficient.

There's no point in continuing to dwell on the past.

Sure enough, the next moment, a game notification appeared on Fang Heng's retina.

[Hint: Player has discovered a pure black orb.]

[Note: Player has been detected to have the qualification to obtain the Pure Black Orb. Player has obtained 1 Pure Black Orb Altar Crafting Blueprint.]

[Hint: Players have triggered the quest - Master the Pure Black Orb].

Mission Name: Master the Pure Black Orb

Mission Description: After some twists and turns, you have found the Pure Black Orb. The Pure Black Orb is the essence of the game, so please be sure to keep it safe. Players can choose to build a Pure Black Orb Altar in a safe location and place the Pure Black Orb to gain control of it.

Task requirements: Build the Pure Black Orb Altar (0/1), and place and acquire control of the Pure Black Orb (0/1).

Sure enough, the game notification was triggered.

Fang Heng quickly glanced at the blueprints for building the pure black orb altar.

The altar structure is largely the same as the altars of the previously obtained jewels, with only minor changes in the details.

The problem is not big.

The materials are readily available in the vampire world, and it should only take one or two days to complete the setup.

The question is, where should the pure black orb be placed?

Fang Heng hesitated.

Should we stay here?

Perhaps the gods have already tracked this place down.

But what if we put it somewhere else?

Is there any place that is absolutely safe? (End of Chapter)
