After learning that Barker was safe, Lucia had completely calmed down.

She was very regretful for almost leading her team to their deaths.

“Fang Heng, thank you for what happened before. I’m very sorry. I was too impulsive. I’m very sorry!”

“It’s understandable, but there won’t be next time.”

Lucia lifted her head and raised her hand, making a solemn promise to Fang Heng.

“Yes! I promise!”

[Hint: Your favorability rating with Lucia has increased.]

Ha! Woman!

It was obvious that she was not sincere!

Such a promise would never work.

Fang Heng shook his head in his heart.

He couldn’t give her the chance to repeat the same mistake in the future!

However, her ability was good.

After all, she was an NPC with a name.

After thinking for a while, Fang Heng immediately arranged the next step of the team’s operation.

“Lucia, we will stay in this building tonight to rest and reorganize. I need you to lead the team to thoroughly clean up the building and make sure that there are no zombies on the first floor.”

“Especially on the first floor. I need you to seal and reinforce all the entrances. Can you do that?”

“Yes! I promise to complete the mission!”

Lucia did not have any objections to Fang Heng’s arrangement. She was even grateful.

She felt that Fang Heng did not get angry or punish her because of what happened just now. He even gave her a chance to carry out the mission.

“after cleaning up, try to contact the survivors of the other teams.”

“Yes!”

Lucia turned around and looked at the NPCs of the Dark Knights.

“Let’s go!”

Seeing that the team members had started to carry out the building clearing mission, Fang Heng took out his sleeping bag and nodded at Mo Jiawei.

“While I’m offline, keep an eye out for me. If anything happens, kick my sleeping bag immediately.”

After saying that, Fang Heng immediately went offline.

In the game, the helicopter that the Dark Knights were on was attacked by the nemesis. The teams were scattered in the corners of the city and it was difficult to contact them.

But Fang Heng’s team was different from them!

They were players!

They could contact each other in real life through offline means!

Fang Heng wanted to know what happened to the people from the Federation.

There was also Old Black!

‘What was the purpose of that guy deliberately luring him to the logistics team?

After exiting the game, Fang Heng did not even have the time to open the game cabin when he heard his phone ring.

Chen Yu probably had his men call him twenty-four hours a day…

Fang Heng took the phone by the bed and saw that it was indeed Chen Yu calling.

“Hello? This is Fang Heng.”

“Mr Fang Heng, Please Wait a moment. Captain Chen Yu will be here soon to answer the call.”

Chen Yu was standing at the side. He picked up the phone anxiously.

“Fang Heng? How are you? You didn’t get blown up by the nemesis, did you?”

“Unfortunately, it got blown up. I even got to experience the fun of parachuting for free. I suggest you try it sometime. It feels pretty good.”

“You still have the mood to joke around?”

Chen Yu completely lost his temper.

However, he was slightly relieved in his heart.

Since Fang Heng could say that, it meant that his situation was still under control.

“Where are you now?”

“Tm at the jewellery store near the north of Pine City.”

Chen Yu, who was holding the phone, nodded to his assistant. The latter immediately drew a big red circle on the map of Pine City.

Fang Heng immediately began to exchange information with Chen Yu.

“My team’s overall situation is good. We found the materials’ boxes left behind after the helicopter crashed and completed the construction of the communication tower base station.”

“However, the base station was seriously damaged. I tried to repair it, but unfortunately, I lacked advanced parts and was unable to complete the repair.”

“Currently, we are trying to restore the team’s communication. Oh right, I forgot to mention that I am now part of the logistics team.”

After a pause, Fang Heng added, “Yes, I am also the captain of Team 9.”

“Captain!?”

Chen Yu was shocked.

However, after thinking about it, it seemed to make sense. When Fang Heng was in prison, he suddenly recruited so many elite Dark Knights.

His honor points must have exploded to high numbers.

“Wait, did you say logistics? Why did you go there…”

“Sigh, it’s a long story. This is not important. We can chat later. Let’s talk about your situation first.”

Chen Yu was at a loss. He subconsciously thought that Fang Heng had received some special mission.

After all, Fang Heng’s honor level in the Dark Knights was extremely high.

Chen Yu quickly organized his thoughts.

“alright, Fang Heng. In this mission, two players from our Federation have joined the Dark Knights. Each of them was assigned to two teams respectively, Team 2 and Team 11.”

“Team 2’s luck is very good. During the entire mission into Pine City, they were not affected by the nemesis.”

“Two hours ago, Team 2 had already landed in the building according to their plan.”

“As they were unable to establish effective communication in the game, Team 2 did not know that the other teams had already been attacked by the nemesis. They were carrying out the search mission on campus according to their original plan, looking for a place to rest tonight.”

“According to Team 2, Team 7, who had landed around the same time as them, was also safe and sound. They were currently exploring Meteorite Company’s Area B.”

“The other eleven teams are in a worse situation. Their plane was attacked by the nemesis and landed near the park in the south of Pine City.”

“after landing, they were attacked by a dense horde of zombies.”

“Half an hour ago, they just left the park and found an abandoned mobile phone factory as their base. Two members of the team were injured. The situation is very critical.”

Factory?

Fang Heng pondered.

That was a good place. Perhaps they could disassemble high-level precision components and repair the damaged communication tower base station.

Fang Heng thought for a moment and continued to ask, “Right, what kind of mission did the two of them receive?”

“They are all different. The mission received by Team 2 players is to explore Area A, while the mission received by Team 11 players is to survive and find a way to meet up with the action team captain, Barker.”

Fang Heng continued to think.

From the current situation, Old Black didn’t seem to have tricked him.

The mission he received was indeed the most suitable for the main storyline, and the information he had was the most complete.

However, this made Fang Heng even more curious.

Old Black must have sent someone to join the exploration team in Pine City.

‘Which team was his person hiding in?

Why didn’t he follow the Team 9 logistics team with him?

“What about you? What’s your mission?”

Fang Heng calmly replied, “Yes, find a way to kill the nemesis.”

Chen Yu was silent for a while.

“are you kidding?”

“No, that was the mission that I received.”

“also, I’ve contacted the captain of the operation team, Barker. He’s currently at the Whitechapel in Pine City. His life isn’t in danger yet, but it’s hard to say if it drags on.”

Fang Heng thought for a moment and added, “I think it’s a little risky.”

“alright, Whitechapel.”

Chen Yu gestured to his companion and handed the handwritten note to a staff member at the side.

In the tactical analysis room, a federal staff member immediately began to analyze the relevant information regarding the Whitechapel..
